Desolation is for the Desolators

While on my morning super highway commute I happened across a wonderful array of photography. These haughtily colored photos of abandoned and desolate creations beckoned me to stop and stay a while. Colored picture after colored picture I became more and more fascinated with how the photographer managed to show an elegance and sense of lost honor with each picture. I was saddened that these creations of man now lay forgotten and dying. Silently they cry out in hope of being rescued for the dilapidated quagmire of neglect they are currently suffering. With the little dignity that remains, they wait for the soul of humanity to return to them.

The Natural Flow

Now I'm not sure if you work in a place with a lot of people but I do. I’m in downtown and over the past year or so I have come to notice something interesting about traveling through a mass of people. There is a “Natural Flow” to the masses. Perhaps flow doesn’t quite describe what I am eluding at. A better way to describe it would be “Harmonious Synchronization of Individuals Traversing Distance at the Greatest Efficient Possible”. Josh had made mention of this phenomenon once before but alas, it seems his post about it has been lost to the internet.

I find when I am in the flow (H.S.I.T.D.G.E.) my ability to move from point A to point B is much easier. As I approach people they move ever so slightly off to the side as though they acknowledge my desire to pass them. This also works vice versa I’ll move myself out of the way of those wanting to go around me. My stride is unhindered by others around me. This phenomenon typically lasts for the whole day. You never really think about it until you find yourself out of synch with the Natural Flow.

Suddenly every person you encounter is in your way. Every action you take to pass or move around some one becomes awkward and more of an effort and rather an unhindered stride. You move to pass and people step out in front of you and instead of casually walking around them you’re squeezing between people in a hurry. Others around seem to move around you so effortlessly yet you are held back by some unknown force. Consequently you journey seems to pass much slower than if you where in the flow.

You may ask “How does one get into or back into the flow?” I really have no idea. My leading theory on it would be that the more relaxed you are about your day the better your chance of finding the flow are riding it. Josh had synched with it while listening to The White Stripes and looking at giant sculptures.



This Diagram should help clear up how the "Natural Flow" systems works.

This Cat Hates you

I found this on digg and figured i would have to share it with those of you who don't digg. This cat does hate you, no matter what you do.




Some should show this lady how to set the volume levels on her camera.

How Dumb am I?

I found this short quiz that tells you how dumb you are. I fell in the bottom 25%. I just thought I was dumber than that.





Find out how smart you are.

Engagement

Here is a nice picture collage of me and my Fiancée. She looks great.

I however, look like a schmuck.

A Little Construction Project

I am working on a show called "Movie Connection" with a few friends of mine. The other weekend myself and Dan bought some supplies and constructed three heart pillars. These monuments to love will serve as the finishing touch to our set. Feast your eyes upon Monoliths and know them to be great.

Cheap Post

I feel like this is a cheap post.

The "Which/How much (Insert Something Here) are you" post is a quick and cheap way to fill space on a blog. Now with my conscience clear check out which character I am from "Firefly".

Your results:

You are: Malcolm Reynolds (Captain)

Malcolm Reynolds (Captain) 80% DerrialBook (Shepherd) 70% Wash (Ship Pilot) 65% Dr. Simon Tam (Ship Medic) 60% Kaylee Frye (Ship Mechanic) 55% Alliance 55% Zoe Washburne (Second-in-command) 50% Inara Serra (Companion) 45% Jayne Cobb (Mercenary) 45% River (Stowaway) 25% A Reaver (Cannibal) 5%

Honest and a defender of the innocent. You sometimes make mistakes in judgment but you are generally good and would protect your crew from harm.
