Women are fucking WIERD dude.

Just plain fucked up. It seems you foxy ladies got the wrong number switched on.

PS: That was my first offical DNA sequencing joke. Im sorry for wasting your time.

Love for you. Inside and Out.

That is what she wants to say. She wants to say it, but she can’t. Too many masks she says, too much makeup. What are we going to do when we lose our fire she asks? I must hide it soon to keep it safe.

Surely there is not enough. Surely I will burn fizzled into nothing. I must put on more makeup.

Pure Olympic Spirit.

I had one of these moments on the train today. Just love and Peace man. Love and Peace.

It must be said.

"It not infrequently happens that something about the earth, about the sky, about other elements of this world, about the motion and rotation or even the magnitude and distances of the stars, about definite eclipses of the sun and moon, about the passage of years and seasons, about the nature of animals, of fruits, of stones, and of other such things, may be known with the greatest certainty by reasoning or by experience, even by one who is not a Christian. It is too disgraceful and ruinous, though, and greatly to be avoided, that he [the non-Christian] should hear a Christian speaking so idiotically on these matters, and as if in accord with Christian writings, that he might say that he could scarcely keep from laughing when he saw how totally in error they are. In view of this and in keeping it in mind constantly while dealing with the book of Genesis, I have, insofar as I was able, explained in detail and set forth for consideration the meanings of obscure passages, taking care not to affirm rashly some one meaning to the prejudice of another and perhaps better explanation."

"With the scriptures it is a matter of treating about the faith. For that reason, as I have noted repeatedly, if anyone, not understanding the mode of divine eloquence, should find something about these matters [about the physical universe] in our books, or hear of the same from those books, of such a kind that it seems to be at variance with the perceptions of his own rational faculties, let him believe that these other things are in no way necessary to the admonitions or accounts or predictions of the scriptures. In short, it must be said that our authors knew the truth about the nature of the skies, but it was not the intention of the Spirit of God, who spoke through them, to teach men anything that would not be of use to them for their salvation."

-Augustine of Hippo (fifth century AD)

Its good to know that I sneeze like a quiet Japanese girl.

My friend tells me that every time I sneeze. Im not entirely sure if thats a good thing or not. On one hand, it is awfully cute (as Iv been told) and on the other entirely emasculating.

Who kind of self-respecting man wants to be compared to a giggling girl? Maybe I should just buy a hello kitty hoodie and call it a day.

Yum

I miss my motorcyle.

I just thought you should know. I figure 2 more months and it will be quasi-warm enough to get the bike out.

Cool cool breeze on my cheek. Oh baby, I need you to love me again.

Thinking about thinking again.

If thought grew detached from the physical body...meaning if thought was born in the physical body first and then moved on...would thought start to create its own experiences outside of the physical body? Would thought generate its own precedent?

Damnit.

Thought.

I read a book on true AI once. It talked about thought. It talked about thought as being the next natural evolution of man kind. It talked about thought as if it were some physically evolved condition; A figment, a filament light, some metaphysical definition which was then supposed to contemplate its own consciousness.

So thought, a separate living entity.

This process does holds some weight in theory. Suppose that thought can analyze itself. Suppose thought can remove itself from the physical processes of the body and become completely devoid of any other influence other than itself.

Lets say that's true. If thought existed as a separate entity, would thought then develop its own personality? Would thought then be a culmination of its OWN past experiences? Would thought even exist without experience?

Would thought exist OUTSIDE of the human vehicle? Could thought be generated or transferred into the pure electrical (ie; computers?). Could thought exist forever? Outside of physics?

Too many questions, not enough motivation to flesh them out. Tune in for another half assed attempt to answer all of lifes questions on "Husain! The Existentialist Douchebag"

PS: The Book in question is "Genesis". Read it, love it. Its delicious food for the brain.

The tomato sauce on my toque sits crusty.

Its brown shit wallows in the ridges of my poriferated hat.
Flakes slowly drift down in front of my face and I begin to wonder,
What did I eat?

What sort of barbary did I indulge in which allowed such terrible mishaps?

A pizza part slipping from the graces of my fingers?
Pepperoni slices defying the laws of gravity itself and lodging its member within my linted cavity.

Perhaps a simple pasta sauce could have also been the culprit. Angry tomato bases waging unholy wars on so much fine wool.

How such edibility resolved its cream on my hat, I do not know. But this, THIS I will say.

Its time for a wash.

Emo Haiku

My eyes water
The tears, they begin to drop.
I need more skinny jeans.

Attn Blind People: Fear No More.

Scientists have recently begun to perfect a technology that allows for practical application in enabling people to see with sensory organs other than their eyes. Namely, the tongue. This allows otherwise optically challenged individuals, to “taste” their environment and locate spatial objects within their own brain schema.

The device essentially works like this:

- A camera mounted on a pair of sunglasses sits on the center of your face.

- The image which is taken by the camera, is transferred straight to a portable device (set somewhere on your body) and THEN transferred straight to a flat plate like device which sits on the base of your tongue.

- This plate then uses its hundreds of pixels to light and thus stimulate the nerve bunches based along the center of your tongue.

- This stimulus enables specific electrical current to send data right up to the visual cortex where it is interpreted as objects located within a space as opposed to bitter, sweet or salty.

The process that we are then talking about here is called, Electrotactile Stimulation for Sensory Substitution.

The fundamental science behind this impressive technology is as follows: The encoded electrical currents use an alternate sensory input channel, as opposed to using their original native channels. Meaning, new routs can spring up to transfer the SAME information to the SAME part of the brain when one input channel shuts down. If your eyes and optical nerve don't work don't fear, an alternate is here!

So now how does this science apply to the technology at hand? Imagine the plate “drawing” a real time image into your tongue via an advanced form of morse code. It shoots electrical signals, received from the portable device, into your tongue in such a way that it is mimicking a signal which was otherwise reserved for the optic nerve.

The truly genius part of the whole device is that the device itself is acting like an eye. It converts light pulses into electrical signals so that the tongue can act as a half assed retina. Brilliant eh?

Just to clarify however, this does not enable a blind person to see. It just allows for MUCH EASIER spacial recognition as long as there is SOME light is passing through the eye, as is the case with 95% of blind people.

Sometimes, I love the brain.
