say goodnight fenny

power posting is now closed for the night.

fun things to do when your monkey is out on the town

something else i would love to do soon is to rebuild my blog template but that might be a waste of time since i am moving it soon.

Mach Go Go

I am launching a few things in the next month some I will speak openly of some and some I will speak about in a type of code known to me and a few others. I like to talk to people about what it is that I am doing it helps me stay focused as best as I can so I get it done in a reasonable time frame. One of the many things I am working on are a few new sites one is for speeds older brother the mysterious racer X. one is for pops and chimchim. I am also working on moving this blog to a domain owned by me I don’t know which one as of yet but once I figure it out I will post it here plus try and move my blog from here with all the old content. I am also working on www.redseo.com which doesn’t work right now but will sometime in the future. I am also continuing to learn more and more about SEO and how blogs and other types of content generation fit in to that. In my work for speeds older brother the mysterious racer X as well as pops and chimchim I am having to restart my learning on asp.net and retrain myself in the beautiful art of CSS and graphic design. I have found myself to become reinspiried about the beauty that can be built on the web and not inside any type of box I am going to try and launch a site that is dedicated to cutting edge browsers and bar access to all but the most elite browser. I will also enroll in collage soon to take some writing classes. In my offline life my younger brother is moving in and my older brother is moving out. The one is coming to go to school and the other is going to go to school.

And for fun


Here he comes
Here comes Speed Racer.
He's a demon on wheels.
Chasin after someone.

He's gainin' on you
So you better look alive.
He's gonna be revin' up his
Powerful Mach 5.

And when the odds are against him
And their dangers work.
You bet your life Speed Racer
Is gonna see it through

Go Speed Racer,
Go Speed Racer,
Go Speed Racer go-.

He's off and flying
As he guns his car around the track.
He's jammin' down the pedal
Like he's never coming back.
Adventure's waiting up ahead-.
Go Speed Racer,
Go Speed Racer,
Go Speed Racer go

a month

Its been a month since I have posted anything and now I am going to post a few things. I just posted one thing about stuff and I will put up a few more about stuff.

high watermark

Why must I live in the time period right after the high watermark of human civilization? You know, when Bugs Bunny cartoons were playing in actual movie theaters.

I am not sure where I came across this quote at but i do feel it says a lot about the feelings of some people regarding today’s tumultuous times. my wife says i never listen to anything she says. She says this because when she askes me about a specific thing she said to me in the past I have no clue what it is she is talking about. This is not because I don’t love her and hang on every word she feels gracious to bestow upon me its is just that all of her thought about very specific. For example she would love to hve some clue as to what it is that would make her happy but instead of looking at the broad topic of happiness she has narrowed it down to a simple equation jeannie + money = happy jeannie. So with that in hand she has headed off to make the money portion of the equation as large as possible. Me on the other hand think of things in terms of what it will take to make me happy and then I think about the things I would do with the happiness, how I would change what I am doing right now to attain happiness, and always I am also thinking about my sons happiness. But along with all of these thoughts I also think about things like how blogs will help SEO, how to build a better CMS based of the sharepoint engine, how to build a not better but more elaborate mouse trap(duct tape is out I think I have exhausted every lead in that direction, this being said I am sure the answer will involve duct tape). This is not to say I am in any way better then my wife or other people that are goal driven its is just saying I am different to be honest I would have to say I am worse off due to my lack of any chance of gaining t5ue single mindedness for any length of time. This blog is the perfect example I pick it up and put it back down on a whim almost its not that I don’t enjoy it its just that I don’t think about it. I suppose in the current state of the US I would have some dieses that I have heard called adult attention deficit disorder but I don’t know how it’s a disorder. I think for my personal type of being it is best that I don’t know how to focus on a single topic at once because in the coming future the specialization that everyone is striving for will fail. The phrase jack of all trades master of none comes rapidly to mind I was first introduced to this phrase when I was about 16 years old and someone was trying to get me to focus on my future. The problem is that if you look at nature you see that the species that specialize are the ones that are now extinct. That scares me. Now back to where I started after my tangent I like to take the long way to a place but I am going to try hard to make sure I end up at that place in the end. Society is becoming very wrapped up in the idea that these are tough times and that things were better before. Depending on how old the person is the before is different. For my mother before is in the 70s for my grandmother before was in the 50s for me before is now. I saw an illustration after 9/11 where a cartoonist drew America as a sleeping giant that had been awoken and I think that is very true we have just awoken as a country but what doesn’t seem to be pointed out is that the world didn’t change when we awoke and it wasn’t a sudden change that awoke us the world changed like it always does slowly and over many decades the din just got loud enough to awaken the biggest kid in the room. I moved to Europe 21 years ago that’s the time it takes for one person to be born, grow, learn, become an adult, and be allowed to go into a bar and have a drink(if that person is male they can go to war 3 years before that but that’s not really the point here now is it). 21 years is a long time for some 21 years ago would probably be there before that was different. But when I was there I say a place that had road signs much like the one down the road from my house that has a pictograph of 2 children playing and it says “SLOW CHILDREN PLAYING” but these signs had no words they just had a pictograph that was very clearly a tank and tank tracks it was a tank crossing sign. This is the same time that we were told on scout outings to the local camp grounds that we were not supposed to pick up anything that might be metal because it could be left over from my grandmothers “better time” and it could be undetonated ordinance and might leave you with one less appendage then you had before you touched it. I also have fond memories of being chased down the street by teaming masses of young national children bent on doing harm to both myself and my friends for the high crime of being American. This is nothing new it has been going on for years the world hates our attitude of “we are the best” not because we feel we are the best the world understands national pride much better then we do but because we not only stand up and shout it as loud and as long as we can we also try to make every one shout it with us and this is where the problem comes in. its not that I don’t love my country and the freedoms afforded my by it I just feel that we need to be less focused on how we can make others see our point of view and maybe clear up our point of view first, then maybe less shouting and a little more talking would prove more advantageous. I wonder when fenny’s “better time” is.

Tokku

her knees thrust in the one direction like a symbol of math the symbol meaning greater then.



Do you ever hear a line in a song that just hits you. You have heard it a dozen times but never really heard what was being said. This I would say is the problem with the human brain being wired to hear sounds and patterns and out of a small sampling of the given sound decide what the rest of the sound is going to be so it doesn’t listen to it. It’s like its own jacked up way of throttling back the processor in the mind.
its a founding principle of social engineering the way the brain works and how to make the "ignore next" function kick in

Just sort of funny to me.

Everyone should buy a glassy baby
