I need to learn where Zooks is getting these helpful (if not trivial, but hey, that's my forte) bits of information (that may or may not be quoted from some TV documentaries, or perhaps, the TV Guide itself).

I tried to make this day come as slow as it can, but so, far, I'm failing, mostly because they (others) seem to make it fit to "try" me.

Don't try. Just apply (to me).

I wonder how far one can go into applying for notice, and actually get less of it, perceived, when it propogates so fully and beautifully? I think that's the story of this topic's endeavor, in a nutshell, if you were to ask me. Nobody asks me.

Ah, I just reminded myself. "Nobody". I'm sure he'll appreciate it once I feature him (elsewhere).

(I speak so much in vaguetries; do this try your understanding of me, or does it enforce it?)

I read (re: 'red'), but I don't "see". Let me stew on it.

What makes me

*shakes head

is I'm gone but 10 minutes (maybe 30) and in that span, we get inundated by the seemingly inconsequential. For someone who strives for meaning in anything in this void of our choas, I get dismayed by it. I can't rebel against it, for the sole reason I'm not a part of it.

I'm in the wrong 'zone', I believe (or they'll have me believe) ; please hand me a ticket back. My state of mind has reversed course.

Understanding some issues

Not to take away from contriubtions elsewhere (or am I taking it away anyways?) but since I don't know when, I've started to complie and create all of my posts as if they mean something bigger than anything ever before; I want them archived, and to be remebered, adored.

I always said I didn't want to be famous. Something in me is contradicting that notion now.
For the most part, though, this is perfection (or as close to it) for the sake of one person: myself.

All else, audience or not, comes second.

Would you like some music for today?

Well, I don't have an immediate idea of what you might like (though I have been pushing off the idea of creating a new Tilted Music thread since early this morning)...

so in the stead of my absence of mind of what may be actually pined for, I'll just post something that I really liked from about a week (a new discovery as well!).

I have a lot of anger every day, but then I forget about come the next day.

(I'm actually quite almost very pissed that I've wasted all this time, when in three minutes' time, I should have started my new topic by now.)

No, the other video I posted was much better. Or should I call it a 'performance'?

Watch the other one instead (or should I say, 'enjoy' the other one?).

If there was anything good about those eighties, it is that our colour spectrum probably multipled threefold throughout those years. We ven got to name a few of them, too.

I "totally" killed myself today. I need to eat my capsule, and brace in. My 'play' is really my work, and my 'work', well i look forward to that more than I do my 'play' (free time).

My free time is "bogus". I'd much rather be sleeping right now than to keep being "free".
Somehow, this society & community will not allow me to sleep anymore than five hours a day.

Little inside track: I cheat them all the time. It's "mondo".

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to leave Earth? To gaze back at the receding blue gem that is our home planet and go where no human has gone before? What strange sights await you? What dangers must you avoid? With five decades of space exploration behind us, we can now begin to answer these questions. Blast-off with this Australian-made documentary series, which explores the pleasures and pitfalls of travel to the alien planets of our own solar system. Narrated by Richard Roxburgh, this series visits the planets from a very personal perspective: that of the people who have sent probes hurtling to strange worlds, and also from the viewpoint of any one of us who might dream of making a trip ourselves. The series is styled in the guise of a visual guidebook, tapping into the mystery and intrigue of space exploration while providing the sort of practical information required by anyone who might like to imagine actually going there. Think of it as a kind of handbook for our cosmic neighbourhood. It recaptures the sense of wonder and romance that was so palpable during the early years of the exploration of the moon and the planets beyond. With a renewed push to propel humans into the heavens and the last three decades of unmanned interplanetary missions behind us, we now have the legitimacy to look deeply into the solar system to explore what our planetary neighbours offer in terms of destinations for human exploration and discovery. As dawn breaks on a new age of manned space flight, this program offers a ringside seat to the splendours of the solar system: an astronaut's guide to whole new worlds of possibility.

So I hear. Something about a monster telling me about how 'community' is dead; I'm not all too oblivious to disagree with it. I'm optimistic that part of it is wrong, but no.

'Train in Vain' is next.

Well, as you've seen recently, it's hard to keep your eyes closed to the raucousness when some feel compelled to usher their entire chest into your face (and that's actually not the worst part of it).

Somehow, still, with all that 'private business', in more than half of the states, (31) it is not considered assault to give someone a friendly teabagging, regardless of intimacies (strangership).

In a state of utter aspiration, am I, but when all around, looking to find a spark to cling to, I can only muster exasperation, at what & how my time is being squandered working towards something I'm not quite so sure of anymore.


I think I'd like a good formspringing agent, and with that, and hopefully some free time, I can shut off some of the apathy thats rubbing off on me.

Summer's almost over; can you believe it? I'm still trying to catch up to all the things I put on hold since 2007.
