| It's like I've suddenly stepped into Soylent Green or perhaps a bizarre episode of The Twilight Zone where stories from The Onion were reality. It all started with a link a friend posted on Facebook. Apparently an Oklahoma State Bill Outlaws the Use of Fetuses in the Food Industry . Which leads to the question, why is such a bill needed? Is it just a paranoid concern? Does the Oklahoma state government know something the rest of us don't? I mean seriously, this kind of concern is one of the few things that would cause me to grow and kill almost all my own food. Anyways I could rehash the whole article but I really wouldnt have anything to say about it other than what it says. So definitely check it out. I looked through some of the comments, and i was shocked to find out that infant foreskins from circumcisions are used in cosmetic injections and creams (which I find to be funny, yet still in a Twilight Zone "The Onion is Reality" context, but seriously supposedly this stuff is made from foreskins) and a few uses which actually seem honorable like growing skin in a lab for burn victims. Infant circumcision itself though is a whole other issue itself though, and is beyond the scope of what i'm blogging about here. This blog post has been brought to you by Soylent red and Soylent yellow, high energy vegetable concentrates, and new, delicious, Soylent green. The miracle food of high-energy plankton gathered from the oceans of the world. Sleep Well!  | | |
| 2011 was a decent enough year. I had fun, went a lot of new places with old friends, made some new friends, visited 13 states, etc etc. Hopefully 2012 is as good or better :) short blog post :( | | |
| So tonight around midnight i was wandering around in Walmart. Something caught my eye, and at first i was thinking "wow they're charging 14 bucks for a jar to keep bugs in" then i realized there were butterflies in them. Only they weren't real butterflies, they were strange mechanical ones that flapped around when you push a button or tap on the lid. Then I thought about who'd want such a thing, as a kid I always looked at butterflies for a little bit and then let them go because i figured they were happier outside of my jar. Also I didn't want them to get hurt since they're delicate and stuff. Before you get all "awwee he does have a heart!" you should know that i maintain that skunks and opposums exist to be killed for amusement. Anyway, in case you still have no idea what i'm talking about it was one of these things http://www.amazon.com/Wishlantern%C2%AE-BUTT003-Butterfly-Glass-Jar/dp/B003YKPO3Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1304746651&sr=1-1 . I suppose during the winter it would be fun, or for cats or small children i suppose. I still find it somewhat depressing though even if it is a mechanical butterfly. What do you think? Do you want one? On a side note, "Judas" by lady gaga is one of the most obnoxious songs i've heard. That should surprise no one though, i mean it is gaga we're talking about here. | | |
| Voter dissatisfaction and anger with government reached an all-time high for a Washington Post-ABC News poll, with 69% of respondents expressing such sentiments.( from http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/us_and_canada/10260898.stm )
I still maintain that most statistics are skewed in favor of the agenda of whoever cites said statistics, and that numbers can be made to look like anything one wants them to, definitions can be blurred etc.
However, I find this to be interesting. Remember all the people upset with George W. Bush? What the nation apparently did was be mad at a guy for talking funny and having pride in the US for a guy that is articulate thanks to his fancy teleprompter (seriously, watch the youtube videos of Obama when the teleprompter goes out... funny stuff that far surpasses any Bushism) and bends over backwards to apologize for everything this country has ever done to anyone. I'm not totally defending Bush either, He did some screwed up stuff too. At the end of the day though I think he was a pretty good guy.
Why do we fluctuate like this? we have a guy thats too far to the right for some people, so they get a guy thats far to the left, and that apparently makes more people mad. I have an idea. Lets get some random non criminal male over the age of 35 off the street and see what he has to say and give him a fighting chance to get elected. I'm tired of all these elitists thinking they know how everyone lives. I'm not expecting this to change in my lifetime, or even ever really. A person can dream though. Which is what I should be doing now but instead im typing on Xanga

| Since I got my new phone, I've been using its GPS capabilities for geocaching. Often times coordinates and information for a cache will take you to a cemetery, and more often than not you have to learn something simple about someone that is buried there, such as their birthday, and use that to find the coordinates to the cache. Today though, it was more the cemetery itself that was being pointed out:
I know John Doe is a name used to refer to an un identified male, seeing this name was pretty sad even though I and no one else has a clue who was buried there. 
There were a lot of graves marked with a generic "Unknown" stone.
There were a few marked with a simple rock too, which may have had a name carved in it at some point in time and may not have.
Anyway, it really got me to thinking. We are all mortal rich and poor alike (i find it odd the poor/unknown have their own cemetery and are segregated in death, but whatever, I'm not used to the world making sense by any means) We leave everything behind in death. What we leave here is an interesting thing to think about. Some of these people didn't even leave someone with a name to write on a piece of rock. How sad is that? It really makes me hope that their lives weren't a total waste. I hope too that they were right with God, but that's me, you might not know like I do.
What would be your legacy? Are you enough of a mover and a shaker to have someone around you to tell the coroner your name? Though I guess a persons name being lost in time isn't the worst that could happen, I mean if that's all a person is after is to be remembered its a little selfish. I would think it would be pretty hard to impact other people without them knowing your name. After all if you punched some random person and got took to court, they would know your name.
