It is the journey that counts.
It is the things you see along that journey.
It is about the service you provide.
It is the life you share with others.
It is the choice to live your own life.
It is being happy regardless of the trials.
It is the first step.

Society and the world.
After having a nice discussion with my friend Chris, we came across a rather interesting topic I'd like to wrote a short blog on.
Society and how this world operates. To me this is an ongoing problem that has been improved over the last few decades with the computer revolution but now as I write this in 2007 has grown stagnant. Mainly referring to communication and cooperation. It's just not happening. Everyone is just consumed by capitalizum and market domination, as well as consumption.
The key to my topic here is that with so many companies and individuals competing for the same consumers there is little room for cooperative innovation and combined resource productivity. It's holding back society. Example is when a new innovation comes out that can help human kind in any marginally significant way, every stride is taken to bury and undermine it so they will not gain too many consumers while others attempt to catch up to the same technology which is just slowing down progress as a whole. If they'd simply congratulate them on the accomplishment and move on to other things or license it for them selfs to sell as well supporting the achievement rather then undermine it in many ways beyond the scope of this posting, then they would be supporting progress and not wasting our human assets for human progression.
Changes? Yes it's possible and it's already happening on many levels, but just not fast enough in my opinion. Collaborative sites like wikipedia, CPAN, and even google.com news reader (http://goggle.com/reader) are some of web sites that come to mind that are brining communities of people together for certain goal oriented communication. There are alot more out there but I can't point them out as I haven't seen them (hence the problem). They need to be made more public and better moderated even better designed to handle more hands on goal oriented progress for our future toward a connected society, a connected world. One in which race, color, heritage, religion is not observed. Only the size of your font and your choice of browser distinguishing the supporters (metaphorically speaking) .
It is my life goal to work towards solving some of these issues. As my last point I'd like to state yet another curve of the context I just spoke of, and that is regarding this blog in which I am fairly new to. That is, this Society connectivity problem is even apparent in this blog entry as I can not think of more then a handful of people that will read this and be inspired to set a goal of doing at least one thing to help humanity as a whole or help them reach out and unite the world. If I'm proven wrong please set your own goal, try to do 3 things to help human kind as a hole, one could be just linking this post to someone else. The future is ours to shape lets make it a revolution!

Lets fix it!
The average fuel economy of passenger cars peaked in 1987 when it was 22.1 miles per gallon for cars and light trucks. The EPA estimates that 2006 average fuel economy, despite two decades of improvements in automobile technology, is 21 mpg.
Figure out why and do your part to fix it.
The answer should be obvious to all.

Intelligence wasted.
After watching this video on Chris Langan I more then ever the extend of human intelligence wasted. I will not agree or disagree outspokenly about anything he said but I do think I would be able to spend at least a few hours talking to this guy in person. Not to prove or disprove his intelligence but merely to discuss and understand him and myself and find any commonalities we may share about the universe we live in today.
In my point of view our intelligent minds are wasted as this world teaches everyone on the same level and holds people back from their true potential either by fear or by a means of control. The human race by nature fears things they cannot understand and having any individual that may be intellectually superior may prose a treat to some and discouraged by others. That only by luck do some of them rise to be Einsteins and accepted by humanity. Though at the time I write this I can not think of anyone that I'd consider to be an Albert Einstein or otherwise. Where are they? Do they Exist? Where are they? or, Who owns them?

The color game on this site is weird, your brain builds a memory of the colors at an alarming rate.
"http://www.ababasoft.com/games/color01.htm"
From the web page: (seems to be very sexually oriented but interesting none-the-less)
Interesting to note, I've experienced this in the real world by experimenting with different cloths and getting different overall reactions from a given number of people. As well as my own personal mood changes when wearing colors like orange, all white, all black, and even all yellow clothing. Give it a try you might find it useful for yourself or painting your home interior for moon boosting environment.

Color meaning
RED
Red signifies the choleric temperament. Red is generally taken to be the color of life, of the glowing sun and of fire. Love and joy, rage and anger are the polar values of the color red. Red is said to make the blood boil, to increase the pulse rate, to raise the blood pressure and the rate of breathing. Red is also the color of desire. The sexual urge, the impulses and general vigor of individuals are attributed to the color red. Red generally supports the circulatory functions and is applied with success to combat anemia, asthma, diseases of the larynx, certain skin diseases and chronic coughs.ORANGE
Orange is the color of cheerfulness and gaiety. Being a color mixed from red and yellow, it stands for kind-heartedness and warm-heartedness of an individual. Orange symbolizes the rising sun, it makes us alert and cheerful. It causes stimulation, warmth and happiness. Orange fills us with joy and cheerfulness. It affects both our bodies and our minds. Astonishing results may be obtained in using the color orange to treat mental illness, depressions, discontent and pessimism. Naturopaths apply orange for the treatment of arteriosclerosis, sclerenecephaly, cardio sclerosis, loss of appetite, anemia, and anorexia.YELLOW
The color yellow represents the sanguine temperament. Yellow is the symbol of the sun at the zenith. Yellow is the brightest of all colors. In the psychology of colors, yellow stands for detached serenity. Yellow reflects light in all directions, thereby creating an impression of detachment and liberation; it cancels out any feeling of heaviness or oppression. Professor Luscher writes that the color yellow drives us forward towards new, modern frontiers, and that it is therefore future oriented. In naturopathy yellow is applied to combat glandular diseases and diseases of the lymphatic system, and to strengthen the nervous system. Yellow greatly assists metabolism, glandular activity and improves secretion of the stomach.GREEN
The color green represents the phlegmatic temperament. It has a harmonizing effect. Green does not make us quiet, but calms us in a neutral, positive sense. Green is the color of possession and of the will to possess. Luscher says: "Green is the color of possession and should increase the feelings of security and in particular of self-confidence." Green is also considered to be the color of concentration. It stands for exact examination, precise analysis, systematic logic and for recording and remembering. Among other things, the color green is applied for the naturopathic treatment of bronchitis, whooping cough, inflammations of the joints, and swellings. In addition, green has a positive influence on the treatments of cysts, eye diseases and diabetes, generally promoting the secretion processes. Green promotes relaxation of the organs and stimulates general detoxification of the body.BLUE
Blue is the color of peace and infinity. It represents the melancholic temperament. Blue profoundly calms and relaxes us. Our bodies and minds are conveyed to a state of peace, repose and softness. The relaxing and tranquilizing property of blue is applied for relieving headaches and migraines, the pains of stomach and muscle cramps. As a general rule, the color blue can be said to have a very positive effect on all kinds of pain conditions.VIOLET
Violet is the combination of the choleric-impulsive and the melancholic-tender nature. Violet is the color of the emotions and is considered to be a meditative color. Violet can lead to profound liberation of the mind. Intuition and imagination are enhanced. Violet is the color regulator at the interface between the mind and the body. In color therapy in particular in color acupuncture, violet is applied for treating the lymphatic system and the spleen.The six basic colors are divided into three hot and three cool, hot being the colors which arouse and give stimulation and cool being the colors which cool down and sedate. The colors Red, Orange & Yellow are warming. The colors Green, Blue & Violet are cooling. Color Therapy uses these complimentary properties of the colors to balance the body and help it to heal. By testing complimentary pairs in your body system, the more sensitive area is found and then given the cool color to sedate, the others are given the warm color to ton.
Interesting to note, I've experienced this in the real world by experimenting with different cloths and getting different overall reactions from a given number of people. As well as my own personal mood changes when wearing colors like orange, all white, all black, and even all yellow clothing.

New blog, same shit, different server.
I'm not much for blogging, guess its great for other people but not so much for me at this time.
I keep most of my thoughts bottled up in text files on my hdd, backed up redundantly and some even compressed in encrypted archives. Problem is, I come across so much cool shit online I need a place to record it. Hopefully this blog will provide that quick and simple solution without being too much work for a lazy Type-A like myself.
Simple, Functional, To-the-point. Thats me in a nutshell.
p'ce (see?).
