There is no "seeing your loved ones in heaven" so live everyday letting those around you know they are loved.

The only proverb or philosophy you must follow is your own.

Thought Pattern

 god is a social fiction, the master is a mental condition, the structure only exist to those within it, time is only for those who waste it, beliefs are for those who wish not to learn. Believe in yourself, no matter how far from the norm it may be.

Today I was told,"You  don't have your priorities straight, today is christmas eve."
I try to live everyday like it's the proverbial christmas. So maybe it is he who has his priorities misaligned.

Thought Pattern

There was once a time when elders would tell stories to teach the young. Often filled with fiction these stories were meant to draw the attention of the youth but to sneak in some facts of life at the same time. It seems as if we have walked away with only the fiction and none of the facts.

Culture, tradition, religion; they have led us down a path of hatred that separates and destroys rather than uniting and uplifting. Take a step away from the dinner table and think of those you are to be giving to. Take a step away from the gift giving and think of those who have nothing to give.
Don't think in terms of what you know, think in terms of what you can learn.

If those three brown men from the middle east had not used astrology, what would all the white christians believe in?

Not only do I have better things to do, but I also have nothing to prove. Maybe when you have the same outlook, your mouth will be shut and your heart and mind will be open.

We are to obey and respect those who are older, but the same doesn't not always apply to those who are healthier.

Do people torture animals because it is not look upon as harshly as pedophilia?

If I were to safe life is priceless all would agree. If I were to say life can not be bought nor sold, most would agree. If I were to say no matter where you are from or how you were raised we are all equal, I would start to receive arguments. If I were to say non human animals are as equally important as humans, people would begin to laugh.

Think about what you buy and how you spend the most evil of human inventions, money.

Thought Pattern

Student loans should not be the issue. The overall exorbitant price of education in america should be the issue.

White americans are suddenly shocked that an Obama supporter could be racist, all the while they are racist themselves.

You're a fool if you feel this country is less racist because Obama won by majority..

Today's Racism

Two men speaking Cantonese are looking at a table saw. The salesman begins his long pitch to convince them to purchase the machine. During his sales pitch he says to the men, "This machine is simple to assemble. The instructions are written by someone who's first language is english therefor you don't have to translate their chinese." OK so maybe this is just absolute ignorance more than it is racism.

Thought Pattern

Corporations are people and people want to be a brand. What's this world coming to?

Thought Pattern

Which came first, war or hatred.
The more I see people respecting veterans only for the fact that they served in a war, the less I feel secure about peoples sanity. I respect people from the start, but as soon as one's mouth opens and begins to spew toxic ignorance or as soon as one's actions shows they are not who they present themselves to be, I begin to lose all respect.

Thought Pattern

Our new society is based on crime. If you are a criminal with large sums of money, you are authority. If you are a criminal just getting by day to day, you will be punished and forced to live in isolation working for the criminals with money. If you live between the legal means which the laws created, you are the pawns of the capitalist agenda. You pawns constantly demonize the poor criminal and are star struck by the criminal with money. You buy the commercial material, you vote for corruption. It's not a political thing and standing right or left does not solve the problem, it only perpetuates it.

 Today's racist quote overhears in one of the famous big box home stores. "That's what happens when you hire cheap labor. I don't even think he spoke english."
This concept of what language one speaks in regard to pay or intelligence makes me wonder what some people think of Stephen Hawking who can not speak at all or Mother Teresa who took a vow of poverty.

The Nerd in Me

So by default straight edge people have to love Star Wars. It also goes in hand with the generation of most straight edge people that I know.
First a story as to why I want to discuss this.
A guy next to me had a Chewbacca ring tone which was constantly ringing. When he was off the phone I asks, "by your your ring tone I have to ask if you have seen the new trailer". Now if you are breathing and even remotely like Star War you should know what I mean by "trailer". But this guy says to me, "what trailer?" Ahhh "Star Wars" I said. He then says, "Yeah it's got this really cool new light saber." that was all he got out before Chewbacca began to ring his phone once again.
Now All I have noticed is that this "really cool new lightsaber" is really dumb, and most Star Wars nerds agree.
With that said I am here to chime in on the new teaser trailer.
I haven't seen the trailer. I refuse to pay the $20 to watch a terrible movie to watch an 80 second trailer. But like not voting and complaining about government I can still comment. In the age of Jedis can we have a more technical lightsaber than just a two dimensional weapon that looks like a medieval sword? Would a Jedi not have the ability to channel such a weapon into a multidimensional, say sphere that could not only be used to attack but as a force field to defend self and others?

OK I'm out of nerdom. 393 days till the release!

The old math story of boy A gets on train 1 and boy B gets on train 2...
If Fedex receives 2 packages at the same time, the same size and weight leaving from location A and arriving at location B, would both packages arrive at the same time? Of course not!

You tell me diesel is too expensive. So I pay a third more for fuel and get twice the miles per gallon and my engine last four times longer. Do the math dumb american.

Today's Racism

I once worked with a great man who had a solid work ethic that could not be beat. He never too a day off work except for Martin Luther King Day. He was a man of color who demanded respect not by force, but by his simple demeanor. He was born in New York and raised in New York, Queens to be specific. When he learned I was from North Carolina he said to me, "I have traveled all over this world and found the nicest people in the South. When people say racism is only In the South I have to interject and explain to them the worst racism I have ever experienced has been from Northerners."
With that said I am starting a new entry on this blog that gives a quick look into working in the male dominated world of woodworking.
I work with 4 other males, all from the South but one who is from Long Island. I have yet to hear anything racist from any of the men from the South. This entry will cover the things I have heard from the gentleman from the North.
First act of racism; "I lived in Bay Ridge, till the Puerto Ricans took over and ruined it."
Second act; Speaking to another Northerner he was asked if he knew of any good bagel shops, he said, "There was a good one I knew down the road from me but it was ruined when the monkey bus started to stop there."
Maybe there really is a bus of monkeys like that which traveled from New Mexico to Florida for Save The Chimps! If so I want to ride.
