Time Travler - Turth or Hoax

John Titor, the man from 2036, was he really from the future or was he only a hoax? you make the call.

2012

It almost the end of 2004, and for many, this would be the last year of "normal" existence. In 8 years, the world as we know it will be different.

I always knew 2012 would be different for me, but only now do I understand that it can be different for millions of others. Of course, I cannot share everything with you yet, but what I can say is, what you will experience and get to know and feel will be unexpected. You can say that the future is always a mystery, but if you know your past, you can figure out what I mean. The ones who have been with me through my journey, and I do not mean this blog or people who know me, will know, they will know.

I will be someone else in 2012, I might even be somewhere else.

Some might dispute what I am saying as my usual nonsense but for some it will make sense. You have to understand that what will come will be a test for everyone. Some will survive, some will not.

"Its the end of the world and we know it, its the end of the world and we know it."

Fear and Loathing Las Vegas (or why movies suck?)

This is a Terry Gilliam film made in 1998. Terry Gilliam is en ex. Monty python, so for those familiar with that series, one can understand his background. However, what makes him different than his other mates is his unique approach to film making. Films such as Brazil, time bandits, and of course fear and loathing in Las Vegas have made him one of the auteurs of world cinema. Now I would not put him in the same class as Fellini who is the genius of them all, but TG is in the top 10 or 20 of all time.

I remembered his film fear and loathing the other day when I was writing my white rabbit piece. In that movie, you get to see the magic of Johnny Depp, another under rated actor by many, but in a class of his own, a very intriguing guy.

The junk that we have been subjected to in the last 10 years or so from the American Cinema industry has made us numb and stupid. The films they make, not all but 95 % are utterly completely stupid and meant to amuse the simple minded human. Movies are not meant for everyone, and they should be done in a special way. Movies are art.

If we look at the history of movies, we see a nice progression in the early 20th century, when films were starting in Europe mostly. You saw innovation in art, cinematography and also direction. As time moved on in this dimension, we got to a point where the mass production became the theme in food, cars, houses, and of course films. Everything has to be big, more is good, taste is not important, art is not important. The consequence was that film became a manner of making money and selling merchandise instead of art. The soul of movies have been taken away.

In the same 10 years, a movement began where independent movies came to prominence. Films such as PI for example, a magical nice movie, and slowly commercial movies began to get competition. However, it has not been enough to change my attitude about film.

I keep watching films, mostly on TV, and only get interested in renting a movie if I know the director. The director tells you all you need to know about the movie, regardless of the story. So, next time you want to see a movie, try to understand the background of the director and you might understand what I mean.

The empty blog entry

The empty blog is a blog entry that does not exist. It is the opposite of a full blog entry. But,how can an entry not exist? Depends on which dimension you are thinking of. If you consider the entry not to exist in this dimension, lets call it dimension A, then it can exist in dimension B. By existing in dimension B, it does not exist in dimension A, because there has to be a balance. If it existed in dimensions A and B, then it would cause a temporal shift.

Continuing on the theme of time travel, dimensional worlds and parallel universes, have you ever tried astral projection? Astral projection is when your "soul" leaves your body and wanders. It can wander in the same dimension, but might end up in another dimension or time even. You should try it and see where it takes you.

Well I was trying to find the site which has a diagram which can make you start but I have had no luck, so I will try later.

Enjoy floating if you find it.

This is an empty blog.

The rabbit

The rabbit is a nice creature. A white rabbit is suspicious. If you remember, its a character in Alice in Wonderland and it is also used in the drug culture, " One pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small." Jefferson Airplane and of course who could forget the cult movie fear and loathing in Las Vegas.

Why am I talking about rabbits? well they multiply fast, hence the term, breed like rabbits, this reminds me of a certain type of humans who breed fast these days, and those are what I call "post it" humans. They like to attach to people who are rich, successful, beautiful, smart, etc. They are a sort of parasite that likes to be in very close proximity to those types. How can you get rid of them? how can you know who is a post it and who is not? tough to know. It takes experience. For the people who are surrounded by parasites, beware.

So to all the post it rabbits out there, one day your breeding will stop, maybe by some sort of natural disaster.

Soccer Kills

KENTON-ON-SEA, South Africa -- Police were searching Monday for a referee accused of fatally shooting a coach on the field in a dispute during a weekend soccer game.
Two players from the visiting Marcelle team were injured during the attack Saturday in the Eastern Cape coastal town of Kenton-on-Sea, police spokeswoman Mali Govender said. She declined to identify the suspect or the victims.


"The referee awarded a penalty against the visiting team during a friendly match and then players stormed the field," Govender said. "It looks as if the referee had the firearm on his person and fired at the players first before hitting the coach in the chest."

The coach from Ekuphumuleni died at the scene, she said. The referee fled.

One player was treated at the scene and a second was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound in the hand. He was listed in stable condition Monday.

South Africa has one of the world's highest murder rates -- 47.4 murders per 100,000 people, or eight times the figure for that of the United States.

Parallel worlds

A parallel world is a world that is similar to the world we live in but totally opposite. Parallel worlds are multiple worlds with each world having its own character. How do we know they exist? How can we cross the boundaries from world to world. That is a question I am seeking answers to.

I am fascinated by the idea of moving between world, getting to see what lays on the other side. I have tried astral projection, for a couple of minutes, when it started to work, I stopped. Maybe I should have continued, but who knows what might have happened. There must be another way to do it.

Another thing I want to do is travel in the future. I found a site once that is a fund to which you donate 10 dollars and whenever the technique exists, they will retrieve you before you die. Is it true or hoax? I do not know, but why not try? if it works, then thats an eye opening experience. If it does not, then it only 10 bucks. What are 10 bucks when you can be re-called.

You can also send an e-mail to your future self, but then again, what guarantees that your e-mail is still the same in 20 years?

I think one day I will be able to crack the barrier and travel. That is what keeps me interested in life.

Bump in my ass

You know what I hate? people who call and say we can come deliver today are you home when its 10.30 am. what do they think? people do not have jobs!!! and when you ask when can you deliver, they say I do not know, I have to check my book!! Stupid Stupid people.

Its chicken shawarma time, I do that a few times a month. I like chicken, some people say I eat chicken too much, well some people eat meat too much, so HA HA and HA back! I will eat chicken as much as I want, puck puck puck paaak.

You must have wondered why the title says bump in my ass? Ask the guy who wrote sex with cannibals. Then again maybe I do have one.

Lists Lists LISTS!!!!

In the past few days, I have been seeing many best of lists pop up in user blogs. While it is interesting to get an idea of where the best place to eat or shop are, it does not provide any real substance. The lists are of course subjective as everyone has their own preferences on how to live and eat, but it all seems too rosy to me.

I am a dark character as you might have sensed from my blogs and my responses, not the most cheerful person, but not the most depressed person. I view "life", if we want to call it that way, as a phase. This phase has many shifts, adjustments and can be seen in different perspectives. I am not convinced that life exists. Meaning, life can be an illusion.

What does this have to do with the lists? Nothing really, I like to write about those things in any blog. If you notice, I am always critical.

If I could make a worst of list, I would have done one by now, but since I have been abroad for a long time, I cannot give contradicatory examples. Then again, I am not much for shopping or eating out, I do it when I need to, sale or no sale.

Two lessons here:

1) Learn to cook instead of wasting your money and time eating outside.
2) Have three sizes in your closet if you intend to eat that much, because you will end up needing to wear something that fits your belly or hips.

This is war

That is the first line from the "Art of War" from SunTzu. He wrote his book as a military text book, but it applies to life as many people would say. 
 
War can be any situation in life where you need to confornt the enemy. The enemy can be physcial or psychological.  It is the time when one needs to fight. You can do that by words, you can do that by fists, you can do that by any other means, but you have to fight, you do not have another option.
 
The war has started, in my mind at least. The war is being planned for, in my mind. What will be the outcome, who knows, there might be peace after it, there might be more bloodshed and heads on sticks. The next few months will tell who will win and who will lose. The ones who have to go through this will be surprised, then again they deserve it, about time they got some whoop ass.
 
To win, one has to have a strategy. The strategy must be based on wining at all costs, otherwise it is not worth fighting for. You only enter a war if you have what it takes and have the balls for it. For the females, it would be some other form of balls, but I am sure they can find something to get them going, after all they have estrogen, thats enough to make any man run away.
 
The question is, will this be the beginning or will it be the end? will this be a mini-war or a wide-scale war? Where should I stop?
 
I am known to be one who is committed to go to the end and sacrifice it all to get it done. If it means my demise, so be it, but at least I have the satisfaction of seeing my enemies defeated. Besides, my demise would be temporary, I will roar back like the lion I am. Never ever mess with a Leo, because a Leo will always win.
 
This is my war, this is my life, this is my blog, and dammit, its all mine!

White Chicks

White chicks, what is so special about them? and by white chicks, I do not mean pale white chicks, or European chicks, but ALL white chicks, why are they special? Is it because they are white? or is it because they think being white makes them better than other chicks? You notice that I use the term chicks, not girls, not ladies, not women, but chicks, so that should give you a clue.

A white chick is a chick that is in a relationship with someone who is from a different color, different nationality, different culture, etc. You notice them around rich black athelets or around black pimps, you see them wanting to be black, or latino, or even chinese is needed. And they do this for a reason, they do it for a special reason, to piss people.

These white chicks are spoiled daddy's girls or in some cases trailer trash. They do not have common sense or have any common understanding of the world, example Paris Hilton (nut job), they only know that being with someone else or around a different group makes them special. Bull dung.

What am I ranting about this? Not because I am going through anything, but I am watching this stupid stupid stupid movie called crazy/beautiful where K.Dunst is after or in love with the latino smart kid, and ruins his life, and she wants to be with him despite the wishes of her father, because she has lost her mom and bla bla bla. I have sympathy for the kid, I really do, but he is stupid too, following his urges like a hond, sorry that is dog in dutch.

OH OH OH!! I forgot, they had this small report on KSA on belgium TV, the usual European shit about the difference in cultures going around talking to men and women, you know the story. They even went to a group of poor kids living in a poor area in a broken house, but they all have mobiles, new ones, and exchanging blue tooth movies, seems like a fad these days, but its funny to see all that together in a movie, and you had the usual guy yeg7as in his american chevy, when will they ever learn?

Ah how sweet, they are together at end of movie, bunch of $%#%$!.

Blog_gloB

For the people who know me, they can understand my title, I thought it was about time I did that.

Since I started blogging a few weeks ago, I have found it very therapeutic and interesting. It gives me the chance to say what is on my mind and also introduced me to other people with their own set of thoughts. So far Mama Fusla's blog has been my favorite, although she is a bit odd I must admit, but who isn't? I am one odd GUY myself. This is for the people who thought my nick is a girl's nick. How did you ever come with that idea? Purgatory, what is feminine about it? or should I call myself Hell72? If i called myself Heaven72, people would say I am a girl, but Purgatory!!! o'Dante!

Anyways, back to my glob or blog entry, its time for my hair cut. I usually cut it once a month or each three weeks. Now its long so I use gel and it sticks up. People think I have a new hair cut, but its only gel. I will get my hair cut over the weekend.

Oh Jamie Oliver, pucker, on tv. Looks like a new show series. I like him, he makes cooking enjoyable, and I like to cook, so it fits well. I will be making my special super duper macaroni. Unlike others, I will not post my recipe, because, I do not have one, I use same ingredients, but make it different each time. How? you must come here and taste. Make sure you get a visa, and no, you do not need to stand for 10 hrs waiting.

Fork paths

Every few years, I get to situations where I must choose, should I follow this direction or should I follow that direction. In some cases, I trust my gutts and in others I look at facts. However, sometimes, you have to use a bit of both, but that does not ensure that the final decision is the best. Once you take it, then you go into a different route, which can also fork into other paths. Then the process starts again. In some cases, you can get back to roads you have passed before or you get into a side-track. Maybe its all a circle.

The best approach is to take things in small steps. If you look at things slowly then you have a better chance of getting the decision that fits best.

I am now at a fork path, with both paths equally interesting. However, one would lead into a totally different direction while the other would be a continuation of the current path in a certain way. My gutt feeling tells me to go in the different direction, my mind tells me wait and continue on the new path. At first, this process was a mess, both were mixed, but after a few days, the picture gets clearer and one can rationalize which way is best. That is what I am doing now, taking small steps, slowly and putting brakes on outside pressures or influences. It needs cooking on slow heat, but I think from now till December, or even earlier, I would have made my mind.

To be continued.

Women loving Women 2

Just an update, she was not serious, she is still straight.

Thursday, July 08, 2004

Work place

Today I went to the marketing affiliate in Belgium to do some project. I do not like marketing offices, they have a different atmosphere. They are dull and do not encourage working. On the other hand, where I work is more interesting and gives you a better feeling.

I guess we all have similar feelings about where work, it shows in the way we dress, the way we decorate our offices or cubicles, the way we enjoy or dislike working and so on. But do we need to work? do we need to do dull tasks? I do not know. Only a few have the luxury of not working, but then they need something else to do in that time.

I think I will stay where I am and enjoy it.

The rise and fall of the male empire

I know that you should not do this at work, but sometimes you feel like it, so I feel like it now, guess this is my new addiction.

I got this drink from my friend yesterday, its a cinnamon syrup. It is sold on an island in Greece and they call it the Greek Viagra. You can mix it with ice-cream or in water, so it is kind of a concentrated sharbat.

I had my drink yesterday, and since I live alone, I could not see if it is effective. However, at night I had some strange dreams, which I have not had for a while. I do not know if it was from the drink or maybe what I ate for dinner. However, that is not what I wanted to talk about.

The obsession with being fertile, or more correctly, endurance is unusual. For such a small act, there have been lots of research to improve the endurance of the male over time. With medicine, special therapy, herbs, food, you name it, it does not stop, but why? I think it connected to the desire to remain young, the desire to be the same as one was before, but why?

With age, you have other things to do, endurance during intercourse should not be a priority. Is pleasure then an obsession? or is it a diversion from other problems?

Women Loving women

Just got the news that one of my friends found out that she has lesbian feelings. Why would someone be gay or lesbian? what makes them feel that way? Is it true that they are born that way? possible judging by the one's I have encountered so far, in some cases you can tell from the start, but then you always have this doubt whether someone is tough or soft.

Anyways, back to the topic, women loving women, I think in the 21st century many women turn to the same sex because they do not get what they want emotionally from the opposite sex. The old fashioned family structure being made up of two separate gender partners does not fit it seems, but did it ever fit or do we imagine it fits? I think it depends on the people involved. If two same gender persons feel comfortable with each other, then why does society care what they do or how they behave? Is it fear of difference? Is it religion? Is it tradition? I do not know, but whatever it is, it has to originate from somewhere.

I know what I am saying does not make sense or lead to anywhere, but its rather questions that must go in your mind as well. It is simple to accept one of those reasons, or even accept it as normal or not accept it even, but is it worth thinking about?

I like this BBC lady, she is sexy, sexy and smart too yummy. I guess I will watch her instead of thinking about women loving women, although am sure some would rather do the opposite.

Nokia 3650

I hate my mobile, it keeps shutting down on me, although there is enough battery power, and the picture quality is not as good as i thought it was, then again I got it as a gift. I will make sure the next one I get is the one I want with my specifications, I am considering the new Samsung 1 mega pixel cam phone.

I like cam phones, it gives me the chance to take pictures at any moment, and of anything. One important thing about a mobile phone is size. I like a big size so I know how to fit it on mouth or ear. I do not know how to use those small ones, or flip phones. Makes me confused.

Papa Loves Mambo

0-0, half time Euro 2004 Portugal vs. Greece. So far its gone ok.

Football, football, football, we have been saturated with football the past three weeks, flags everywhere, all shows went to Portugal, kind of a vacation for them I guess, and all you could see or hear was how good or bad the Dutch team was. Too critical sometimes, but those are Dutch, they would not be Dutch if they were not critical, my kind of people.


What also comes with football is lots of merchandising. You see all famous stars doing commercials, and you see even major brands such as nike having full national teams in commercials, like the Nike commercial with Brazil and Portugal (Papa loves mambo commercial). However, the negative side of all this is that players are no longer players, they are becoming icons, and for young players, they do not even reach their potential, they forget how they got there and focus on being famous. I liked football before too, like my movies, you might say I live in the past, but who doesn't?

I am waiting for the new 1 mega byte phones to come out, so I can take better pictures. The ones now on the market do not have the best resolution, but thats the beauty of marketing, you release a product that is not the best, but you get people hooked, then you release the next, which people will want, while the product itself "the real super duper one" will not be out until a few years time, but that is the game.

Ok second half about to start, so I will glue myself to the TV again.

Ciao

Classic or Junk?

Its almost 1 A.M. here and I am watching Shaft on TV, the original version. However, I am waiting for another classic, Thunderbolt and lightfoot, which should be on in 5 mins.

I like classic movies, they do not make them like they did now. All those messed up computer generated films, stupid plots, half of them are stolen from old European movies anyways. Nothing compared to Fellini or Passolini, but times change, and so does the "bar". The bar moves down to allow for a quicker, "fast food" type of movie, quick in, quick out, and only makes your brain stuffed with junk,nothing original.

I am wearing my Detriot Pistons championship shirt, got it from a good friend. Although I never saw a match from this new team as NBA is only provided here on pay cable, or cable which you pay extra for, which is not worth it. If they had NFL too I would do it. Although they won easily, I am not sure if they compare to the original bad boys, Vinnie, Dumars, Isiah, and of course Lambeer (sp.) Man that guy was something else, that was sports, rough and rougher. They clipped mike's wings all down to the floor, bam bam bam bam !!!.. or Bada Bing for all you Soporanos fans.

Sports is become soft now, all those rules to make sure players are not hurt and all those fines and stuff. Don't you miss a player bleeding after a hit, or that wicked back tackle on the feet, with two legs (soccer), or even a big punch up, with coaches hanging on players's feet (in case you did not know, Van Gundy, Heat-Knicks, Mourning). I like the guy though, van Gundy that is. With T-Mac in Houston they should be a power house.

Well, five minutes are over, the film has started, so adios

Second Entry - cooking

Ok Farscape finished and they escaped from Scorpy. I like Scorpy, he is wicked.

Cooking, I like cooking, I do not know why, but I do. I enjoy making different dishes and taking photos of them, cooking fetish maybe? Tonight, the menu will be white rice with a meat vegetable thick stew. I like my stew thick, so when it mixes with the rice, you get a good chunk of food in your mouth.

I started cooking by cleaning. How you ask? Well during my student years, I did not know how to cook, so I was the designated dish washer. Dirty job, but someone has to do it. But, I also watched them cook, and although I knew what to do, I did not have the feeling yet for it. Then I moved up to salads, I was good at that, cutting in special ways, and making good designs. But it was not until I moved alone, that I really started to cook. I began with simple things, eggs, fried stuff, then moved to more advanced dishes. I soon discovered I was good at cooking, I began to make my own creations, mix stuff and make it taste good too. It was also a way to get more attention from females, so it worked good in another way also.

I have been living alone for the past 10 years, and I must say it suits me well. Cooking has been one of the main activities that keeps me happy. So far, I have not met anyone who can make food the way I like it. I do eat it when they cook, but its not like I want it, not like it should be, am too critical maybe, but then again with someone present in many dimensions, would be hard not to be.

So I go back to my dimensional presence mumbo jumbo, I always wanted to know how I can travel through dimensions in my current dimensional state. What does he mean you say? Well, lets call me purgatory 1, so if purgatory 1 goes to dimension 2, where purgatory 2 exists, would there be two purgatory? or would purgatory 2 be in a different dimension? I still think its possible to do that, the only thing missing is the path, where is that hole where I can jump into, will it ever show? I think yes, not sure when, but I have a feeling it will not be long. So maybe one day, I will disappear and be somewhere else, but would anyone notice? would anyone know? would anyone remember?

OK time to go make my food.

Ciao

First Entry

Well, This is my first experience with blogging. I found out about this through a close friend of mine, well, maybe the closest, anyways, I thought it would be interesting to start my own blog.

Its Saturday and I am watching TV and drinking coffee. Saturday is usually half active day for me, and in 30 mins or so they will show Farscape. I like that show, its odd and unique, then again I have always been attracted to the odd and unique. Could be because I am different, but could be because I am interested in being different??

I am 31 now, going on 32, but I stopped thinking of my age a few years back. I have to think when people ask about my age, while before I could remember how old I was. Could it be that as we get older that age is not important and that its all the same? possible. Speaking of getting older, that brings up the thought of time and space. That is after all the title of my blog, but what does that mean exactly? Well, it means that I believe that I exist in multiple dimensions, with each dimensional "me" having his own unique characteristic and life. There is a past me, present me and future me, and there are also parallel "me"s. How is that possible you ask? Simple.

Think of it like this, you are here now, right? why is it not possible that you are also "here" but 10 mins later? I mean 10 mins later, I will be here still typing and still doing my blog, but is that the same "me"? nope, thats me + 10 mins, which makes him, another me. However, that is the same dimension right? nope, wrong, thats another dimension. What happens is that with each second, you get a shift in the time scale, where each second you have a new "you", and they align on top of each other to give a continuous flow of "you" or "me". Now, assume at this same moment, in another parallel dimension, the same thing is happening to another "you", that is another "you".

This is all nonsense you say, really ? are you sure it is, or are you too afraid to admit that you might not be the "real" you? What is the "real you" you ask? The real "you" is the original one, the one that from which all of "you"s came from, there is always one, there is always an origin, and there is always a start.

Farscape has started, so I will continue this some other time, maybe with another theme.
