Friday, July 9. 2010Random thoughts...July 9thI was informed of a website,or blog, can't remember which; but it's about flamewarriors. The author is a professional illustrator/cartoonist, and he made a bunch of cartoons about different online personalities, and how they verbally spar. Save for a few that I wouldn't want children to see,it's pretty funny. He included contact info, so that people could make suggestions about additional personalities and tactics. I suggested several, one of which is "am-pm". It's a person like me, that has one idea late at night, then the next morning feels completely different about the matter. So it was with my latest awesome totally cool idea. I came up with an idea for a wall mural. It will require a number of straight lines. So I got out this nifty tool that my brother in law TW got me.It's a laser level. It can shoot either a small red dot to another wall, or, a nice stright red line across the wall. It has been awhile since I used it, so I changed the batteries. Now it's really bright. So bright,in fact,that I had to try it on some houseflies. I didn't expect it to burn them, maybe just annoy them, or temporaraily blind them. As it turns out, it's quite easy to aim it, and the flies do jump away from it. I suppose if I had two hundred compound eyes all sending mega red color to the brain, I'd jump too. But as I sat there, the awesome part came to me: I read in a couple of places (don't know if it's true) that there's a hot little laser inside your typical computer CD read-write unit. Hot as in it will burn paper and stuff. I have a stack of these sitting here, so hey, this could be fun. Surely it could crisp a few fly wings? But then the morning sobriety came. How many fires am I going to start in the house with this thing? Not to mention black spots on white walls, fallen down hanging plant holders, ricochets off mirrors going who knows where? I confided the whole idea and morning realization to my wife, who is the non-redneck part of this marriage. You know what??? She thought it was a good idea! So now I'm high again, on my ever so fun and practical weaponry. Yesss! Of course,maybe it's one of those things I shouldn't actually try...if it didn't work, I'd have to come down again. ----------------------------------------- How often do you have something else in your mind when you pray? What if God returned the favor,and only listened as intently as we prayed? -------------------------------------------------- I don't know if Imentioned it here, but I've wondered if one reason for paper money is that it will be the fuel for the hell fires of some people that love it. I don't necessarily mean people that have a lot, just people that cheated, and payed the lowest possible wages; that sort of thing. Well,along those same lines,there might just be a little relief in hell...some people will be allowed a little fan that falls apart, or a bucket that cracks and leaks all the water out, just like the stuff they made and sold here on earth.
