King of pop dead at 50

Friday, 26. June 2009, 04:15:32

A pop legend is gone. Nobody can quite believe it. How can the one-gloved superstar who brought us Thriller and Beat It really be gone. He was a fixture in our generation. One minute he’s here, the next gone. Life cut short at 50, unbelievable.

It’s all everyone is talking about… in the news, on Twitter, on Facebook.

Michael was a music icon, the “King of Pop.” Michael was an amazing musician who united black and white music. His music dominated the charts and he was an amazing performer.

I have been following the stories about this all day since first hearing about his collapsing from a heart attack. TMZ.com was the first site i saw that stated Michael had died and many ppl were not believing that until it was confirmed a bit later and i and many others were in shock. The other side of the world is waking up to this on their tv screens and rss feeds as i type this as they learn of an icon passing. Sony posted their condolences on Michael Jackson's official website

Philosophy of time travel

philosophy, dreams, time travel, life ...

by Roberta Sparrow
before you read any further take a look at the time. what time is it?
This book is probably fiction and will be a great read but sparks my curiousity about the possibility of time travel. I have had a reoccuring dream that tormented me as a youth and unexplainable things that happened in between the dreams during the daytime such as seeing things, hearing was distorted and the last time i had the dream i would start crying for no reason at all. i've told a lot of people and friends about this and tried to explain the best i could to them what really happened then, its just to hard to figure out what really happened. This book kinda tackles the dream things and kind of remembering something that happened in the past that is more than a dream it is an experience that you had in another time or perhaps another demension or parallel universe. subjective reality
ever heard of Deja vu? another p word: Psychology. The illusion of having already experienced something actually being experienced for the first time. many of us have experianced this phenomenon <<yet another p word. I for one have experienced deja vu many times when i was younger. the deja vu things would happen all the time to the point where i'd start going into a state of wandering concentration, if that makes any sense. i'd stare into nothingness (the air) and just be like dazed, really stuck in this type of state. this is kind of irrelevant but bare with Me and my sister both recall things that happened, even in dreams where we both had the same dreams! Someone or something was trying to tell me something in the house i grew up in at Lexington n.w. (if you want the full story or more info. just send a message or comment) I just want to figure out why i'm here. my purpose in this life. i've studied intentively in my free time many religions and other cultures and how they think and view their surroundings. How many parts of the world view religion intrigues me as well. some peoples will sacrifice much for their beliefs while others will just attend a service every Sunday. So whats all this have to do with the philosophy of time travel? ...what time is it now?

short story

this is a really great short story! Until i figure out what else to post on the blog this will hopefully suffice. I read this back in 1999 when i was in 7th grade, i can still remember the charter school, West Michigan Academy of Arts and Academics, but before the new building there it was an old night club with awesome graffiti on the wall. *sigh* i wish those days were still here

there was like only 56 students total in the school. (i totally pulled that number out of thin air, i honostly dont remember) it was in the middle of nowhere, unlike most schools this was more like going to camp everyday! even the teachers would talk about how they enjoyed their jobs, no joke! I just started thinking about how life was only 10 years ago. OMG its already been ten years!!! I feel i'm getting older

I even remember the names of most of the students: Matt, Zach, Rayna, Natasha, Andrew, Greg, Carrie, Jared and a bunch more. funny i don't recall the names of to many of the teachers xD lets see, Ms. Jackson and thats about it!

So, enjoy the short story here and forget about what i type here

free, movie

A poisonous Sumatran rat-monkey is taken from a desert island to a zoo in New Zealand. Lionel takes his new girlfriend Paquita there. His pain-in-the-ass mother follows him, probably suffering from some kind of reverse Oedipus complex. She is bitten by the monkey and gradually dies and turns into a zombie. Then she goes around hunting people, and everybody she bites also turn into zombies. Lionel has bigger and bigger problems fighting the zombies and hiding them from Paquita and the rest of the world. Finally, Lionel and Paquita get into a fight with hundreds of zombies during a party of unwanted guests at Lionel's home. Director: Peter Jackson

our sun

sun

An Amazing Fact: The sun is a fantastically hot cosmic-radiation powerhouse, with a surface temperature of about 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Its interior temperature is estimated as high as 18 million degrees Fahrenheit. The pressure at the center of the sun is about 700 million tons per square inch. That's enough to smash atoms, expose the inner nuclei, and allow them to smash into each other, interact, and produce the nuclear fusion that gives us our light and heat. In fact, the material at the core of the sun is so intensely hot that if you could capture just enough to cover a pinhead, it would radiate sufficient heat to kill a man one mile away!

steampunk, awesomeness, voice from the past

so its been almost 3 months since my last post on here. i really should close this blog down and start fresh but since i already have a blog started and some occasional readers i will just go ahead and keep this one.

a lot of things have been happening over here at my home port from which i type and post onto the cyberweb. ummm...ok. Mainly, well lets talk games i've been playing, one in particular is dun dun duuunnnnn... mafia wars! LOL yes i know! Facebook has this app. which over 11 million ppl have added and its just so addicting! also another newly discovered game from Popcap is Plants vs. Zombies, i dont know why i downloaded the demo but now i have the whole thing and its quite pleasing to play over..and over...and over again. xD so then now that games are out of the way lets get to the other goodies i've discovered (or that friends on myspace have waved in front of my face for the past 8 months) how could i have been so blind? Steampunk!!! OMG this is got to be the greatest style ever! You have to acquire a taste for the good olde days before you can begin to like it but i was hooked from the beginning. Plus i have the koolest myspacers to thank too, such as the lovely Sgt. Kato so dreamy

*ahem* anyway so yea i've been attentively studying this amazingness and found some awesome neo victorian musicians to boot. Like Emilie Autumn, Amon Tobin, Dr. Steel, Yann Tiersen (not really neo victorian but great none the less) Jon Hopkins and a few others who's beautiful tones and pant flapping bass lines appeal to ones senses

One last note, i have been actively cycling a ton lately, and i mean a ton!!! try 90+ miles in a single morning! yea i may be insane but theres something about those trails that strech across miles of country, wind through villages and marshes and ultimatly end far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. ok so i'm not a photographerbut these are some of the trails ive done, and random other pics.
