richard dawkins quote

disscusing genetic combinations and the proportions of viable an nonviable and the organisms that they might generate "however many ways there may be of being alive,it is certain that there are vastly more ways of being dead"

quote by journalist john diamond

"there is really no such thing as alternative medicine,just medicine that works and medicine that doesn't.......there isn't an 'alternative' physiology or anatomy or nervous system any more than there is an alternative map of london which lets you get to battersea from chelsea without crossing the thames."

how many shall i get

let us wait and see

i remember her telling me that with out me she would die.
i remember she was holding me from behind whilst in bed,she could not see my face.
i remember not knowing how to feel about that.
i remember being scared,agog and slightly angry thinking i was being pressured.
i know now what it means to say things like that and wish someone would say that to me now.

"In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first woman on earth. Zeus ordered Hephaestus, the god of craftsmanship, to create her and he did, using water and earth. The gods endowed her with many talents; Aphrodite gave her beauty, Apollo music, Hermes persuasion, and so forth. Hence her name: Pandora, "all-gifted".

Pandora had a jar which she was not to open under any circumstance. Impelled by her natural curiosity, Pandora opened the jar, and all evil contained escaped and spread over the earth. She hastened to close the lid, but the whole contents of the jar had escaped, except for one thing which lay at the bottom, and that was Hope."

this is where the term pandora's box comes from.


curious how history repeats itself. when the mutiny of the bounty took place and captain bligh made it back to england after he and his loyal crew made their heroic and historic voyage in an open boat,the admiralty dispatched the pandora to tahiti to round up the mutineers. the ones they rounded up an tahiti the placed in a makeshift prison box they constructed on the deck of the pandora "pandora's box". searching the nearby islands for christianson and the other mutineers they struck a reef and were sunk. as the crew abandoned the pandora,one thoughfully released the catch on the prison therby releasing the contents of the box,the" evil mutineers".-----------interesting

now this is something that i really want. what a cool idea,for some reason north america is the last place it is catching on.

words of an icu nurse

you have no will,we take it all away with our drugs

we may be human but we are still animal.i remember that quote from long ago and i realize that it is entirely relavant.

i really got nothing to say but posting has been a bit of a rarity lately so i ramble to fill white space

everyone seems to be dissapearing off to do thier christmas thing so it will be slow around here i think.i will be here but a 1 man show is not much of a show at all.

tired must sleep,actually getting a massage tomorrow then gotta zoom back here to do one.


good night

hmmmm varekai is coming to vancouver. might have to make the trip as i am the biggest cirque du soliel freak

hope

what a pain in the ass hope is. one sits there thinking of possibilites,things that might happen,dreams that might come true. when you are at your lowest there it sits,taunting you,that little glimmer of hope.it says look at me,all is not lost ,i am here. well fuck you hope,if life is going to crush me i do not need you interfering. some things just cannot keep their noses out of your business.

damn i have so much to do yet i procrastinate on everything.
i need to finish this table in my living room for my therapist but i just look at it taking up space.
i need to work on some photos and print some proofs for my friend,i have not done them.
i need to go see the lion,the witch and the wardrobe but instead i sit here doing nothing.
i need to finish my car so i can drive like a demon but it languishes in the parking lot.
all this can be accomplished if i actually did them.
maybe later,right now i must do nothing.

A short biography of Chuck Norris

Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.

There are no disabled people. Only people who have met
ChuckNorris.

Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot
broke the speed of light, went back in time, and killed Amelia
Earhart while she was flying over the Pacific Ocean.


Rather than being birthed
like a normal child, Chuck Norris
instead decided to punch his way out of his mother's womb. Shortly
thereafter he grew a beard.

Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good
looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the
transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in
the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony,
couldn't stay mad and admitted he
should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second
Wednesday of the month.

Chuck Norris built a time machine and went back in time to stop the
JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Chuck met all threebullets with
his beard, deflecting them. JFK's head
exploded out of sheer amazement.


When Chuck Norris plays Oregon Trail his family does not die from
cholera or dysentery, but rather roundhouse kicks to the face. He
also requires no wagon, since he carries the oxen, axels, and
buffalo meat on his back. He always makes it to Oregon before you.

Chuck Norris recently had the idea to sell his urine as a canned
beverage. We know this beverage as Red Bull.

Chuck Norris was the fourth Wiseman. He brought baby Jesus the
gift of "beard". Jesus wore it proudly to his dying day. The other
Wisemen, jealous of Jesus' obvious gift favoritism, used their
combined influence to have Chuck omitted from the Bible. Shortly
after all three died of roundhouse kick related deaths.

Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.

To prove it isn't that big of a deal to beat cancer, Chuck Norris
smoked 15 cartons of cigarettes a day for 2 years and aquired 7
different kinds of cancer only to rid them from his body by
flexing for 30 minutes. Beat that, Lance Armstrong.

A man once asked Chuck Norris if his real name is "Charles". Chuck
Norris did not respond, he simply stared at him until he exploded.

The chief export of Chuck Norris is pain.

Chuck Norris can make a
woman climax by simply pointing at her and
saying "booya".

Chuck Norris once shot a German plane down with his finger, by
yelling, "Bang!"

Chuck Norris is currently suing NBC, claiming Law and Order are
trademarked names for his left and right legs.

After much debate, President Truman decided to drop the atomic
bomb on Hiroshima rather than the
alternative of sending Chuck Norris. His reasoning? It was more
"humane".

If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see
Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death.

Chuck Norris
once went to a frat party, and proceeded to
roundhouse every popped collar in sight. He then drank three kegs
and shit on their floor, just because he's Chuck Norris.



Chuck Norris
doesn't understand why you should consult your doctor if your
erection
lasts for more than 4 hours. His erections have been
known to last for up to 15 days.

One of the greatest cover-ups of the last century was the fact
that Hitler did not commit suicide in his bunker, but was in fact
tea-bagged to death by Chuck Norris.
