need to travel faster than the speed of light?

no problem!
just squeeze the space in front of you and expand the space behind of you;
simple enough right?

how about you explain how in the world you plan to do that history channel? how 'bout that.

and what kinda consequences are we talking here?
Seems like you probably shouldn't mess with the universe, especially when y'all think that rapid expansion/contraction is the 'how' of the big bang theory. what happens when we expand the space behind us and it somehow destabilizes our planet and we're thrown our of orbit? I dunno man, sounds like a rough day to me.


ah knowledge, you always leave me with more questions than I had to begin with 

Eagle Nebula



Scientists think that about 1 in a 1,000,000 planets in our solar system might contain intelligent life; however, what if you bend our definition of life? What if life on another planet doesn't subsist on water and oxygen? What if life on another planet isn't carbon based? What if life develops on another planet that's able to withstand, what we would consider, temperature extremes? I mean, it seems pretty narrow minded to think that life couldn't exist on another planet simply because the conditions aren't ideal for us. Right?

On another note:
Did you see the man in the picture above?
That's a real picture of the Eagle Nebula!



Looks like a man with a very clear face holding his hands out,
or at least I think it does : )

cornball

I like making mud pies and feeling the sunshine,
I like cool October nights and shooting stars,
guns, kittens, and fluffy pink mittens,
going fast, moving slow,
feeling the oceans ebb and flow.
I like video games, pictures, and staying up late,
I love looking for couples on their very first date.
I want to fly to far off exotic places,
ride the biggest ride,
and live my life before I've died.

your boundries don't interest me

Philippe Halsman - In Voluptas Mors, a Salvador Dali portrait  

Voluptas (latin) or Hedone (greek) is the Goddess of pleasure (hence Hedonism),
daughter of the God Eros (love - also known as Cupid) and Goddess Psyche (soul).


I find myself a student of the great Hedonists: Democritus, the extinct Carvaka school of thought, Michael Onfrey - a French fellow, the extinct Cyrenaic people, and John Stuart Mill - a brilliant Brit (utilitarianism).

and by hedonism I mean the actual definition of 'pleasure and contentment as the sole goal of life' and not the image that springs to mind as defined by our society

*although I find myself interested and enthralled I cannot say that I agree with everything I find. To my utter frustration, the only consistency in my thought lies in my utter rejection of any organized religion or school of thought. I seek the truths that lie within my soul, and refuse to accept knowledge as truth without examining every aspect from every angle conceivable. I might be here awhile. I dislike the word awhile, it makes my tongue feel funny.

...I like ecstasy of the mind. I'm a wretch. But I love, love

"The only people that interest me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing... but burn, burn, burn like roman candles across the night."




Jack Kerouac

the decadance of the love you make is equal to the gravity of the love you fake

the saddest thing
is a man who lacks the courage to change.
self, circumstance, or opinion
it's just the saddest thing
