my annual renewal is coming up and I don't know if I'm going to.. I haven't added an image to my favourites in a long time, girls that should be suicide girls are getting 80% and not even being really looked at because of the vanilla people on the site these days, the basic purpose of the site in my eyes is faltering. Some of the groups are great and certain girls are awesome. But I dunno if it's enough to keep another year.
Some disturbing figures I figured out today.
I've drank at least 5000L of Pop in 10 years.
an average of 1.6L a day.
that is 70kg of Sugar a year.
about 1.5 tons of Sugar in 10 years including my insane intake of candy and chocolate
I was then asked how often I masturbate...
in the same 10 year stretch... for the coke.. about 10-11k physical orgasms.
that is about 55L of semen.. I could have fathered an army by now.

It's sad I lost a friend today, because they felt the need to spread hate disguised as humour. I don't believe that any Religion is totally right or wrong, but I do think we should respect all religions, and to pass around spiteful hateful things about any religion or to pass it around cart blanche without context, and call it humour is a path to hate. I've seen people go down that path before, and I don't want to be apart of it again, I'd rather still respect them and wish them the best then lose all respect I have for them.
It's sad too they are one of my favourite people in the world.

You can't hear the above if you are over 20.. ish
I hear nothing it pisses me off.
if you are young and you want a ringer your boss can't hear, there you go.

Got a new tattoo today, it's higher then I wanted it sadly, but it's high enough I don't have to worry about getting crap if I wear short sleeve shirt. I'm generally satisfied with it, though I'm thinking of having part of it actually filled in as the bridge between the filled and sololy line work pieces.
Back or collarbone ones next, haven't decided yet.
I'd post pictures but I can't get a decent shot of my arm.
on the plus side, i'm impressed with Nigeria they played fairly well against a major powerhouse football nation.

Thundercats are on the loose, Thundercats are loose!, Thunder Thunder Thunder, Thundercats.... 2011.
Ya that's right Thundercats are coming back to TV as a new animated series being made by the WB for the Cartoon Network set to debut in 2011.
Looks like a more high fantasy art style too..
some changes to the story line though from the looks of things.

The new "ThunderCats" will appeal to viewers who have loved the characters all their lives as well as young newcomers to the franchise. A sweeping tale combining swords and science and boasting ferocious battles with the highest of stakes, the grand origin story of Prince Lion-O's ascension to the throne - and of those who would thwart his destiny at any cost - takes on epic dimensions in this sharp new telling. As the forces of good and evil battle each other in the quest for the fabled Stones of Power, Lion-O and his champions learn valuable lessons of loyalty, honor and mortality in every episode.
I'd really like to know how I missed that Peter Steele died last month... I'm kinda sad about it, as I expected to eventually see Type O in concert.. my own fault for not actually going out of my way to do so.
I was thinking of Eugenics recently.
Basically it's the idea that selective breeding will bring about smarter, stronger people. And it has sound theory in that you end up weeding out poor genetic stock. However it also misses the point in many areas. My father is not an idiot but isn't a genius, neither of his parents were great either. My grandparents on my mothers side were also poor physical specimens and my grandmother may or may not be capable of high thought. However my mother is high functioning with a strong school based ability to learn, but not much more.
My brother and I are both very intelligent and have varying levels of anger, and social issues, but both of us are capable of physical feats. And with the right environmental conditions we could both achieve just about anything we had put our minds to.
It does suggest that we would have a very hard time actually putting Eugenics into practice in a manner that would actually be beneficial. And more so it would be possible to use selective breeding to use the right DNA combinations to actually improve the gene's of people.
More so it is possible to see that when two people of different races breed you can have traits from a great great great grandparent show up generations later. ie I went to school with a guy whose parents were both Northern European, at some point in the late 18th century one of his ancestors was black. that was about 10 generations back. Until I meet his parents I had no idea he wasn't black, they were divorced of course, as the father didn't know he had a black ancestor until his sons grade 8 year and he found out through a school project.
So at this point how do we actually put such a concept into practice with out strong genetic screening and a testing of every marker to know exactly what you are mixing. Then to add to that further how do you account for natural mutation of the genome.
In the end it is very difficult to ensure everything runs smoothly. In fact the only positive that has ever come out of Eugenics isn't even from it. The protection of stock from inbreeding was known for some time. The Catholic Church for the longest time needed a couple to be more then 6 generations apart (I believe) thus allowing a limiting of mixing genes to prevent genetic issues.
This is an added issue with Eugenics on a small scale as it will eventually actually hinder it's cause by increasing inbreeding issues within a few generations, which leads to birth defects and mental illness.
In the case of my brother and I, we both developed a strong ability to learn through our upbringing. We moved well over 10 times growing up, allowing us enough time to learn the lay of the land in new area's and helping to develop a compartmentalized memory allowing faster and longer term recall. Today I can still describe the home I lived in 25 years ago down to small details, and the preceding 25 homes as well.
This allowed me to learn a lot growing up as well as my brother, we could and can draw unusual conclusions in class that often confused our teachers as we had the right background information and the ability to see patterns to make leaps of logic. It also left us bored with class work which took too long to get through, as we absorbed the information and wanted to move on to the next item, resulting in low grades (I had a 52% average in high school, while having the reputation of being very smart)
We were also encouraged to be physically active, playing sports, running and climbing, by the time I was 19 I was only 98lbs but I was strong enough to lift a small car off the ground, or pull a large vehicle, I had even pushed a truck out a snow bank with a tree as a brace. (using a combination of body strength and physics)
I was smart, strong, and had most of the markers that would be tried to breed into a person via Eugenics. All that was missing was the nurtured trait of ambition, to focus my abilities into something useful, rather then being a jack of all trades (not that I regret it)
So if my parents were both of "inferior" stock how is that both my brother and I had the qualities if not the ambition (a nurtured, not breed quality) of "superior" stock. (not that I consider myself nor my brother superior at all). It is my opinion that correct nurturing and the combination of genetic material will always create unique out comes no matter what screening you do. The best screening will still see a possibility for cruel people, or undesired traits.
It is through this highly unscientific yet readily available anecdotal evidence that I can't understand why such a theory ever had weight. And yet we are moving back towards it in the idea of DNA testing and altering DNA which though not possible yet is getting closer.
Though those that view it as good are usually at least, possessing good intentions.

TFC TFC TFC !!!!!
That was an awesome match, and I got a fucking awesome seat that had access to a box for people in the section I was in, and it had free food and water... Nachos, Watermelon, Cookies, Pizza. and some sort of chicken on a bun meal... it was amazing.
And the seat it self (which I sat in during play) was decent got to watch the DeRo pass right to OBW for that beautiful goal.
It was a nice day.
On the way home on the Go Bus couple who were also coming from the game offered me Caramilk Liqueur.. (like the chocolate bar) it was a good time.
seriously fucking eh.
