The sun. FLAMING ORB OF ASS!! you have drawn your blades across my flesh once again. Ever so gently gnawing on my eyeballs unleashed the Spinning Blades of BrainPAIN!! Imagine Cornflakes and PencilCheese, my old friends. There they are, wading in a pool of trisexual piranha. Look, they've uncovered a fourth. How happy they much be. And still I sit in a vat of salt. My balls are beginning to sing the Itchy song. Claire Danes is supar sexo. Shower fairies will rescue me. The golf gnomes must pay. Arrange for this, Matthew.

A Former Special Forces Soldier Responds to Bush's Invitation for Iraqis to Attack US Troops

Well, tomorrow is America's Birthday. How are we doing, Founding Fathers? What's that? You want to put our current administration in a big blender, drink it, then shit it out? ME TOO!!!!

BTW, the other night Sean said something to the effect of, "If you rape and murder me, I'll come back and rape and murder you" You have nothing to worry about, Matt. I believe we all know who is the truly fucked up individual.

Porn is fairly substantial although I would guess that when it began, the porn percentage what higher than it is now. Just look at the explosion in internet based companies, B&M companies that now have serious presense on the net, etc. etc. Simply the fact that there are thousands of national and international media outlets on the web is part of this collective-knowledge idea. Now, granted, not many people spend their time on the web browing the Hindustan Times but even the that it's there if you want that perspective.. pretty damn cool. I dunno. I may be overly optimistic but I have grand hopes for this whole internet thing. Sort of like a global Library at Alexandria for the new century. The world's knowledge in one place, at your finger tips. Free? well, probably not.

What is the difference between changing our lives and changing our nature, in your view?

Changing our nature, as I would understand it, would be somehow in the future, Man stops warring with itself. That would be a change in nature and suffice it to say that something like that comes along once or twice in the history of an intelligent species. Besides, honestly, something that has the ability to CHANGE the way you live you LIFE, isn't that unquestionably remarkable? Progress. innovation. creativity. discovery. Life altering things. Things or events or ideas that make people STOP what they've been doing all along and START doing something else. Wicked cool.

I'm not going to say that the internet is the single greatest invention ever but one cannot deny that life and the way people interact and do business is clearly and markedly different than it was before the World Wide Web emerged from the nerd dimension.

Oh, and both of you. SUCK IT.... LONG TIME!!

Sean: two thing for you: One. It's not obvious from your post if you exposing sex as a masker of larger problems as a tip to others or if you are making a candid confession. Not a question, but an observation. Two. The internet at this day in age is much more than just a repository for facts. It is almost a physical manifestation of the collective unconscience. The idea that distance and proximity now have no bearing on what you can be exposed to, or what you can expose others to. People can "gather" and truly have discussions about whether or not Bolivia should be exporting grain or whether or not their plan to rid the world of people named Sean is feasible. In those cases, the internet can very much be a gateway to knowledge, collective knowledge at that, as well as pure information. And aside from all that, the fact that at SOME point in our lifetimes, lowly individuals like you and I and Matt will have access to ALL that collective knowledge and mountains of facts, statistics, news, history and whatever else will not even require you to be physically tethered to ANYTHING. Sitting in the middle of an english meadow or on the back of a camel, on a quest into the Thar desert in India, is truly an astounding concept.




By the way, Matt is no longer allowed to drink and blog! You are a twisted, frightening individual. Your posts will take years to decode, I'm afraid.

Is Google God? (login:arstechnica1/pass:arstechnica1

Very intersting thoughts on the nature of the world and the amazingly easy access that people have to almost all the publically known knowledge in the world. With the basic notions that this article espounds, I foresee a future world that is much more fractious and subdivided than any in history. A return to the age of guilds and not just the major guilds like the weavers and blacksmithers but EVERY teeny tiny little microguild that one can imagine. Why? Because now, people would have to settle for whats nearby. EVERYONE is connected!! If you like goat porn, there is a group of people at www.goatsex.com that you can hang out with. No more will a farmer world be just harvesters, tractors, the price of corn, the local high school football team. Now Farmer Asspirate can debate the economic policy of Malawi or comment on the most recent episode of As the Subcontinent Turns. I think we shouldl start our own microguild. Any ideas?

I dont understand. Someone has ripped out a page from my Matt Tome. Why exactly do you need to find a place to live? Are you being asked to vacate the ole coll/reb house? you must explain. Not in strage, glorious metaphor but in that simple blunt way that one would admonish a misbehaving child.

Fuck this sadness about innocense lost and a bleak, mute, neutral future as a bland adult. Perhaps they've been waiting till we're ready. Quietly dropping dreams into our receptive lobes and stirring a great cauldron of complex webs and devious enemies. Are children really capable of combating the Orc hordes? They lack the physical strengh and the mental dexterity. Not to mention the emotional fortitude and magnificent comraderie only available to true brothers in arms. Kids chase girls, giggling and laughing. Men conquer evil, unite and protect the good.
