Dreams. When I close my eyes, all I see is fire.

Björk - [Hyper-Ballad]--- A giant store, like a Super-Wal-Mart, or a Costco, or a Sams, but also with aisles, and structure, like the housewares section of a Sears. (The Dresden Dolls - [War Pigs (Live Black Sabbath Cover)]). A guy there was trying to get people to notice him and his ork, so he stole a toaster manual from me, and used it to show that he knew was he was doing, and also that they should buy toasters.Kelly was in a really expensive pen section, being a snob about pens, while some other people wandered around DVDs and music. I was looking for non-clinical porn, something with emotion and feeling. I walked a circuit around the store, past toaster guy, around the outside then back up and through music and pens, to Books and DVDs. Over there were hand-carved figures in a glass case, made by a very old man, and a girl was looking at them, wanting to buy them, having no idea what she was getting. The old man was on the phone with someone, becuase he had to let them know when people looked at the figures. This girl was only the third person to ever look at them. I made three and a half. The carvings were squares of glass, about the size of a chess board, with two wooden angels underneath, supporting the glass with the wings, and two on top, performing the same function, somehow. He sold all of the pieces, including his little girl's toy yo-yo, so her brother tried to carve her one, but it was more a mish-mash of pieces of wood, carved together like a puzzle. (The Dresden Dolls - [My Alcoholic Friends]). It didn't work too well, and when she threw it, it only spun round and round on the string. She understood that her brother was not the master carver her father was, but she was still very sad.

That seem very important, you know? The carvings and the girl and her loss, and the phone calls, and where the fuck were you, last night? Some of you fuckers never showed up, never called, nothing. What the Hell?

Fiona Apple - [Sleep to Dream]--- It's ok. I forgive you. I drank, last night, as I've not drunk in a very long time: "A lot, and all at once." But when I close my eyes all I can see is various kinds of fire. Cooking fires. Bonfires, fire fires. Fire.

I need to go eat.

Human Echolocation

[Music request: If anyone has a good copy of the album "Lovelife," by the BritPop band Lush, i'd be willing to buy or steal it from you.

Thank you...................]

I meant to post the above, last night at around 7... Ahem.

Human Echolocation

The video game information is most amazing. So, is it soemthing that can be learned and taught? Can we direct the brain to allow for echolocation, with this new knowledge? Or is this person a fluke?

If we can teach others to do this, the possibilities are highly encouraging.

Amazing.

Found via mech_angel: Ravens kick ass at learning things.

Also? Einstein-Rosen Bridge, in a new sense. This is a coupling of relativity and quantum theory, here, people. This is finally recognising the fact that what we have is all we have, and that we can manipulate that to do damned anything, given enough understanding and evidence. Beautiful stuff, this.

Also, isn't it amazing how they call String Theory "the most popular theory," now, without context? Popular among scientists, or popular among the uneducated hoi polloi?

Understanding this picture does it all.

And what the fuck, people? You think I was kidding with the meme? You think I meant "when you felt like it, if you got around to it?" No, fucker. NOW. It's Hallow's E'en in two damn days. Chop Chop, bitches.

I'm out.
