Ka Pow!

Should be asleep but I'm up working. Trying very hard to make posting a regular thing, although looking at my post it seems more like could'da, would'da, should'da :( Good thing this time I actually have been working so all I have to do is get the work up. Here's some fan art I did of Naruto's Rock Lee. A sign that I'm actually going to post regularly this time :)

Back in Action

I received my computer back from it's "repairs" and was surprised to find that the memory on it had not been erased. I was excited and resumed what I had been doing weeks before when it had shut down and then i began to think: all of the things that mattered so much that were stored on my computer. Music, scanned images, pictures taken, etc. All intangible, recoverable and not holding any type of monetary or essential value in my life (I made it three weeks without them and assumed they were lost to the hands of the best buy geek squad). Are they really all that important? Memories of times past or favorite songs, what do they really mean to me and do I need them at all?

This made me think of "Fight Club" something along the lines of the things you own slowly begin to own you. They define you. But to who? Yourself? Do you need to define you to yourself? What has life become if we rely on things that can be erased at any moment to define our identity? Time to sleep.

What is honor other than rules humans have made up to bring order to this chaotic world that they live in? Or should I ask would honor exist in the natural world with out humans?

Alternative Possiblites of Ourself

Recently someone posed a "what if" question to me regarding "me" as a different "me". The question seems to come up every now and then with just about anyone I talk to. At first I thought it was pointless to speculate but then I began to think about the question itself and what purpose it could possibly serve (in others words I was bored) to be asked over and over again with no real answer. I would suppose it is to keep us aware of where we are and where we still can go. By looking at the past situations, and the choices we have made we can see what is within our control and out of our control. Those that are out of our control are just that, and because of that we can only look at how they shaped us (or how we let them shape us). The difference is those types of things hopefully allow us to consider how to respond under situations that are out of our control; what we should draw from the latter (I suppose) is to consider our actions, motives, responses, how we carry them out and where they eventually might put us.
I think this is an exercise that keeps the human mind aware of itself. Most creatures we know of do not have the ability to imagine themselves and how everything is relative (to themselves and everything else). They see things as absolutes and make judgments according to that. For instance, a wolf would not suppose he was a duck, or to an extent, a wolf would not suppose he was a duck being hunted by a wolf. Really this will turn in to off subject rambling. Signing off.

It might has well been millions of years since I've posted. Wow. I could make a million excuses as well but it would probably be more beneficial to take action. Here's a pic I worked on for all of two hours, pondering how much ordinary people mean to us in our lives but create such a lasting effect. Love, hate, idolize or what ever you do to specific people in your life they are still ordinary people working with (in general) everything you (we) have. Nobody in real life has super powers or abilities that the average individual cannot attain on their own, yet still we sit in amazement/awe of what they do. You get on life so take action. Hmmm. Now reading this explination I might have trouble sleeping. :(

Biological Technology

I watched movies wondering if I would see the day humans and technology mixed together; Ghost In The Shell, Robocop, Terminator, Akira, ect...
Recently I began to notice it has already begun of course not is the sci-fi cyber punkish ideas we've seen in movies and tv but people on blue-tooth, i-phones. PSP, I-pod and the DS are carried around as if they are an appendage of the person. To think something like this has happened so gradually, so passively it makes me wonder how long will it be before I look back as I am right now trying to remember when people began infusing technology with in their skin or technologically augmenting their abilities. I think of the hearing aid, the pacemaker.
I wonder what type of device would be so incredibly useful for someone to actually attach it to oneself? First what comes to mind would be a memory device, a camera or recording device. Or more likely than that a health related device, but this is obvious because it has already happened as stated above.
Any how it's beginning to seem more likely that I will see such a day when this type of this is not uncommon.
So to say.

Rabbit

When I got home there was a rabbit in my garage. He was about the size of a child's fist. Very sneaky. My brother and I had to lure him out by slowly chasing along the wall.
He originally must have gotten stuck in one of our basement windows. I heard him last night and mistook him for some birds fighting. Once I left for work my brother heard him by the window like I had, but when they investigated they saw him trying to jump out. Needless to say they rescued him only to have him sprint around the yard, between cars, in to walls and eventually in to
the garage.
