Well what better way to make me feel a bit better, than to give my hardly-earned income to my favourite "radio" station http://www.somafm.com
Just discovered they can set up a permanent USD$1.00/month paypal thing. So that's done and my personal belief in micropayments continues to gain ground.

I'd say Noel has generally got the right idea, but I do think it's hitting well wide of the point to just say that our kids will adapt to whatever future we offer them, let's not worry too much about environmentalism. Even though humanity could adapt, given time, it's looking a possibility that we'll all be extinct somewhere between the floods and fires of hell...
He's not the first muso that suggests letting it all be, but it's surely a cop out no matter which British oracle you're knelt before. We should still want to make the world a better place even after we've given up trying. He does say he takes PT and doesn't own a car, so maybe that shows a "think globally, act locally" mindset afterall!

Something depressing |

So what do you do when you're gay, your best friend is straight and you've been falling further and further in love with him over oh so many years? Well after you see Brokeback Mountain and it drenches you in catharsis for a week and then you contemplate it further for a month, you realise that you can't keep doing this to yourself and to selfishly save yourself from continual heartache and burning lust, you let your friend know you can't hang out anymore. Naturally he doesn't (can't possibly?) understand, but he's a man, so no tears, after all he can make another friend, huh? The night ends early and you cry yourself to sleep.

| Future, here I come! |
[19 Oct 2005|07:31pm] |
Entered the 21st century today, barely...
My venerable AMD Duron 800 makes way for an Athlon Thunderbird 1400! Only problem is that my 1999 motherboard won't support it at full speed without modding the CPU itself; ouchies. So this means I'll be running at 1.1GHz for the foreseeable future, as the healthy snap and ping of the heatsink clip gave me the impression that this baby ain't comin' out.
So does it feel faster? No. But I'm sure intensive things like ripping DVD's will be somewhat faster. Can't somebody just get Sony to release the damn PS3 already?

Maybe LJ is where I can vent my frustration at living in a society which barely takes me into account though I spend every waking and sleeping moment in a meditation of mediation.
The thing is, though, that you the viewing public of my live journal will, and I think with probable accuracy (is that a contradiction?), not wish to read this rambling monologue and since these are thoughts I think and live regardless of whether I type them, I wonder at the futility? (and the grammar, hah!)
Still it is a little fun to be writing this without being stoned. Generally I have these profound moments and go scrabbling for a notepad and pencil and the spend a few minutes trying to reconstitute the thought which sent me scrabbling. Sometimes I even achieve my aim! Often I just give up knowing that at least the thought was thought even if not captured in longer duration.
For you (that's plural):
I love you -
even as love
be open and true
for the others
care not
and never once
call forth passion
as fear pervades
the waking hopes
of dreams adrift;
unheard in sleep.
---
Sleep well my friends; we are growing a new world.

Well I enjoy taking these tests because it interests me how the algorithms choose me as opposed to how I choose myself.
I agree with the "histrionic" decision, but I'm not so sure about the "obsessive-compulsive" as there appeared to be only one question about it that I answered positively. Otherwise I'm very happy with the outcome (in fact, amazingly surprised at the accuracy!); me to a "T" (whatever that expression means - maybe someone can help?).
I'll be most interested to see if anyone actually reads my journal, since this is my second post I think; so by now I would assume anybody that was interested got quite fed up waiting for a new post.
