Nothing to say about today...
What an uneventual day.
BORINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG


ARTEMIS OF BANA-MIGHDALL


..."The nineteenth-century crowd were wrong,on the whole,but we're somehow doing worse than that (we are not even that).We're now living with the uncertainty principle and the incompleteness theorem and philosophers who say that the world has become a simulacrum - a copy without an original.We live in a world where nothing may be real;a world of infinite closed systems and particles that could be doing anything you like(but probably aren't) ."

Well Derrida would have a field day with this particular text as, as well constructed as it is, It itself neglects to reason that the uncertainty of the truth are more than present on Its rhetoric.
Still, as an ever inquisitive mind, i cannot affirm that the author text hasn't marvelled me. 
So i take my hat out at ARTEMIS OF BANA-MIGHDALL,a.k.a. Scarlett Thomas

in vino veritas???


One cannot judge himself.
One can have a pretty good idea of who and what he is,wheter it be a superconcept of himself thinking of himself as God's gift to humanity ot the other end of the spectrum.In humanity, all other categories are filled from one end to the other not by self believe but from what people see One.
To make this speech a little less enigmatic, lets just say that as high or short as you try to sell your image to people, it is ultimately in their heads what will they construct of you.So it is out of your hands the opinion that they hold of you, so it really isn't worth the while you thinking about it.You can only do so much.
Then, there are those that constantly change their mind about you and for those indecisive people there is no way of pleasing them.They only seem please to see you when mind altering substances are around...
So why would you feel comfortable with yourself when that situation arises???
In vino veritas???
Well it depends on which side of the truth you are.
The one telling it or the one hearing it.
It boggles the mind.
Anyway...
...I am not that bad.

INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE


There might be a small possibility that i have finished this treatment and it left me with a scar or two.

Might just be me being being my  usual self, bordering the hypochondriac but i am well far from convinced.Anyway...

HELP ANYONE!!!!!!?????!!!!!





Sluggish Cognitive Tempo (SCT) is an unformalized descriptive term which is used to better identify what appears to be a homogeneous sub-subgroup within the formal subgroup ADHD predominantly inattentive (ADHD-I or ADHD-PI) classification in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fourth edition. It has been roughly estimated that the SCT population may make up 30-50% of the ADHD-PI population.

In many ways, those who have an SCT profile have the opposite symptoms of those with classic ADHD: Instead of being hyperactiveextroverted, obtrusive, and risk takers, those with SCT are passive, daydreamy, shy, and "HYPO"-active in both a mental and physical way. They also don't have the same risk factors and outcomes. Their demeanor is sluggish, as if "in a fog" and logically they also process information more slowly. A key behavioural characteristic of those with SCT symptoms is that they are more likely to appear to be lacking motivation. They lack energy to deal with mundane tasks and will consequently seek things that are mentally stimulating because of their underaroused state. Those with SCT symptoms show a qualitatively different kind of attention deficit that is more typical of a true information input-output problem, such as memory retrieval and active working memory. Conversely, those with the other two subtypes of ADHD are characteristically excessively energetic and have no difficulty processing information.

SILENCIUM UNIVERSI


Again with a political view...
But this is sheer nonsense...
In my beloved country,Portugal, in the ancient city of Braga, a book fair was organized.
The police decided that 5 books by Catherine Breillat,of her novel Pornocratie, should be apprehended as the cover of the book ( a famous painting by the artist  Gustave Courbet) was pornographic material.
How to explain to men that they are free to chose?

TEMPUS FUGIT


In the sanctity of his bath, were he purges his sins and ponders on his life, a man finnaly reaches the understanding of "education, education, education". One can isolate himself for a million of reasons and none stand no sense in the great picture of existence.He can be a genius but for what good are his synaptic connections when the feed-back that he has is just white noise.You rip not only what you sow but also what others planted next to your harvest. And as long as he stands here, anacronically dragging my existence than he'll become immortal in imbecility.And who wants to live forever?
It is not only what he has learned.
It is also how he continues to develop that learning.And development does not equate The Sun newspaper.It does not allow for Hello magazine, it cannot contemplate the notion of chinese whispers.
A part of the living/breathing structured society that we live upon but in no way a small step for men.
In a microcosms it apply's also to the day to day of people that surround such man.
How is he suppose to continue his development if all around him hinders his efforts to improve the notion that he has of himself?
What's the glory that that man can have in being the brightest between the idiots?
It would surely prove that he is the biggest idiot of them all and then he's cicle is completed.The vainglory of such fool became he's ultimate doom.
Education, education, education...
For all is worth, he was taught allot but learned nothing as it turns out.What point is there him being scholar if he cannot apply what he has learned?
Education, education, education...
Maybe that man should really reacess his pryorities as he risks failling on his God sent mission.
And there is no way you mess with God.There is just no way you mess with HIM.
So back to the drawing board.
Education, education, education...

TRICK OF MIND


Hopeless???
Sometimes i think so as i see, or rather foresee ,what will be the outcome of a situation.
I can see all the angles and i can pretty much see the moment when i am going to crash.Still and for some stupid reason i let myself delve into the murkiest waters around.And then, inevitably i drown...
But...will it kill me???You would think...
NO...
Give me some time to recover and i'll be right back here again.
DAMN THESE AFFAIRS AND WHATNOTS .

REPENT SINNERS



In this tranquil and peaceful day of mine, i cannot help but to make a comment about a situation that bothers the hell out of me.
There is a trail going on in this country that i live on that is a quite disturbing case.
On the 10th of August 2006, the day my Godniece was born, some people, allegedly try to blow up several flights inbound to the United States, from this country.I usually wouldn't comment on this aside from the fact that it really irritates me.
They all plea not guilty which is fair enough, if they are.
But we all know that there is, at least, a hint of "not right" in this.
That, thou, is not what bugs me.What i can't understand is that, even if this is not the case, 99% of the times, they will so plead, regardless of their guilty.
Now, i don't want to pretend that i know the reasons why people do such things.As i well advocate, all is about the experience, the path that you live through life.If you've decided to abruptly end it, that's fine.It is your prerogative.If in that trip you happen to take others with you, that's fine ( not really, but...).If that was your intent all along, fine.
Now what i don't understand is that if in failing to do so how come don't you take the responsibility?I mean, even if you are trialed and found not guilty the chances of you being able to repeat that stunt are close to zero so ,as a matter of fact, what you are portraying in your plea is that of a very coward person that stands to no believes.That person is not even here for the voyage.
THAT PERSON IS MERELY A MISTAKE, A GLITCH IN THE UNIVERSAL SYSTEM.
Suicide bombers indeed...


It's my party and i cry if i want to...


Hazard a guess into the "why?" of this picture...
Can't???
Just count the rings...

Monkey robbers in Agra


The thing is that they are sacred...
So killing is not an option.
So how do you face this crisis?You can't very well educate them,or can you?
Well maybe they were tough by the british...
30 years down the line, there's the result.
Monkey's robing in India 13 year old kids having childs...How's this any different?

hangover


Shameful?
I don't think so!Why would i really?Granted it's not your average situation and not only it is frown upon it might even be considered as a deplorable act.The fact remains that even thou i know it is wrong i love every second of it and am left wanting for even more, every time.
So blame me, ostracise me, crucify me if you will...
BUT HER'S THE SOFTEST TONGUE I EVER KISSED.

zing


Forward is the way to go...
I cannot understand why would i like to regress into a place of dominance and machismo just for the sake of making someone happy.As much as i like that person.
These are my principles and if you don't like them, well...i don't have others.
It would be like playing tic-tac-toe with my own believes.
ALPHA-MALE INDEED BUT NEVER DESPOTIC ENOUGH.
Granted you may like it but i just cannot do it...

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome


I wonder if the same should be used to human beings.
This comes about because of one of the strangest pieces of journalism ever...
The culling of the grey squirrel.It's not so much about the culling of the rodent, charming and cute as it is, but of the action being discussed in of the prime time television programmes in the U.K.What i found it amazing was the fact it even got a mention on it, let along a 15mnt slot in the discussion programme.I'm all for evolution even if it is conditioned by human nature, as it is the case of these squirrels that invaded this country 130 years ago decimating the indigenous red squirrel population.It's great to talk about it, mind you, as i am against that radical solution and it is no more than that; SOLUTION with all that entails.
Should other alternatives be explored?
And in same cases shouldn't we use one example to fit all cases???

TIME'S ON MY SIDE


Patiently awaiting results!
It's like going back to high school and dread the holiday time.
Did i do well, should i have tried a bite more, was there anything that i could do?
At the moment all's on hold, except my life, thou.
I have learned along the years that that is one thing i cannot put on hold.
1ST PEARL OF WISDOM.
Still, i look forward to tomorrow's day.
WHICH SURPRISES ARE THERE FOR ME??

En guard


I find myself having a weakness that is very hard to explain.
I sincerely do not care what most of the people think of me, maybe because my ego is gigantic, maybe because most of them are people that i would never care to relate to.So a very selected few are the ones that really have an impact on me.Regardless of all this i tend to get absolutely irritated when people start talking to me in a condescendent way or even worse than that telling me what another person thinks of me.It's fair enough if the conversation comes up out of the blue but when it's said with the intent of destabilising me it really irritates me.
AND, TRY AS I MAY, I REALLY CANT CONTROL MYSELF!

The monsters of the id


A drink is a drink and it shouldn't be passing my lips.
A friend is a friend and in friendship there's no self.
The will must be strong at all times, even if the body and mind ache for whatever or whoever they must not have.
All things consider, the irracionality of the being surpusses the discipline of the mind.
IT IS UP TO ME NOT TO SURRENDER TO THE DELIGHTS OF THE WANT.
AND CONTINUE TO FIGHT THE MONSTERS OF THE ID.
