"Maybe we should spend more time with Bart; he's becoming isolated and... Weird."

So, due to my recent change of perspective (self-imposed), and my isolation from most forms of interaction with others (i need emphatic hand gestures and Inflections. Hence the capitalizations), i keep noting that my beliefss and trains of thought, while still MINE, are... Really Getting Volatile. I'm not being Clear, and i'm being very narrow, in a lot of things. People, some people-- everyone except, like, Two people who always seem to know what i'm saying, or trying to say-- are missing my points, again. And that's because they are couched in Diatribe, and rant, and not as clearly as they used to be.

In regards to the "Hologram" post, let it be known that I merely Heavily Disagree with the use of the terms "Hologram", "Holographic," and other terms, closely there-related. They are misleading and erroneous. If we are talking about Holograms as Analogous, then that's what should be done, not using the term as if that, and stricly that, is what is meant. Perhaps it was oversight, but it does not change the fact that people new to the subject Will get confused. That's why i start at the beginning, most times. Or try to.

I need to go out, with people.. go get coffee. Go Not Smoke (as an aside, the smell of cigarette smoke is starting to make me ill. Down side: My metabolism seems to have slowed.), and have long, tangential conversations, where i understand a Bit more about how all the details fit into the Big Pictures. Cause, after all, the Details are what I'm In.

Other than that, a nice boring day of folding, reading, and avoiding trouble. DAMN i hate Bureaucracy. I also thought of something... Some of you wake up, in the morning, and go to jobs. Really Early Jobs. Some of these dictate that you deal with people. A lot of you, who have to do that, have at Least a small amount of disdain for The Great Unwashed. How do you do it? Why should we have to? Time for a reform. Who's with me?

Read, dispersed, today, 176 pages of "Shadow Puppets." Considering i only had about 3 hours of solid reading time, and 30 minutes of scattered, that's... Re-Assuring. My reading/comprehension speed is going up again. I want it back to 100 an hour... I Liked That. That would be nice, again, but 200 and hour would be Golden. ^_^

So, a note:

My highschool principle, you know, the one who Radically Changed my Life? Well, at one point, to make up for some credits i missed, in my 10th year of schooling. Incident. Anyway, she assigned me Waiting For Godot, and Catcher in the Rye. If i described both of the books, and My interpretations of them, to her satisfaction, then i Passed 10th grade Lit.

i remember talking to Lorraine, after reading CitR, to make up for the credits i lost, at grady, and telling her that i really identified with Holden Caufield. That, in fact, i could see a bit of Holden in everyone i know. She looked at me oddly, said "Really?" I said "yeah," and explained the insecurity, the trying to find a Way in the world... Everything that Was Holden. She said that she agreed and understood. She said that she had felt the same way, when she read it. That was Before i realised that it was about a kid in a mental institution. She always knew that the best of us are a little insane... She made sure that we all realised it.

My point is that She once Wrote a Set of the Cliff's Notes, for the book, so she pretty well knew what she was talking about. I didn't remember that, until i was reminded, a few minutes ago (thanks atlqueenrai). She was a Very Accomplished Woman. And she showed each of her students the lessons they needed to learn, in the ways they needed to learn them.

Man i miss her...

Side Note:

If Johnny Cash doesn't win for Best Video of the Year, for "Hurt," there WILL be a Reackoning.

I mean... Shit... I swear, if it doesn't, i'm going out and yelling at people about.. Everything... for at least a week.

Sorry... But He Deserves that. And so much more. Johnny Cash is a Living God.
