Give us the link here.

It's a bit like letting people read your diary, so I hope you won't all laugh at me.

Scrybl

Thanks.

Resolution
(It was going to be a post every day, but I got a bit behind.)

Syl your strapline "This flower is significant of a particular time in my life" reminds me of "The monkey represents sharing". That's not a negative comment.

Farting through my Fingertips

for non-blogstyle stuff, i set this one up: Intermittent Creative Twitchings. but it kinda died in the arse and now i just put stuff there which is not time-dependent or me-dependent -- stuff that stands alone that i'd like to keep.

Thanks Alfie. I'm going to have fun reading all the blogs!

So do I.

Fuck you, Sul. That really screwed my post.

:)

if it took you over 3 minutes ("8 mins ago" vs "5 mins ago") to type 6 characters, you bloody deserved it. lame-o. try using BOTH thumbs!

clearly he takes his time
which is sometimes not a bad thing

Not when he has sex - I've heard rumers that he hardly has time to shout "Geronimo" before it's all over.

Good authority, too.

vic or cal?

(he has to use both thumbs then too)

Thanks for all the blogs...they are all great!

iamcal's gone a bit wonky. I'm sure it'mee that did it.

In what way is it wonky?

My discussions page is way lower than the linklog side?

i get that too
looks like the discussion block has been moved left to accomodate the jesus url and in order to do that the block has been placed below the linklog

Same thing in IE6, not Firefox

I think it's the "what would jesus do" link

Syl, can you see my blog now?

I know it's not really worth looking at, but you should still be able to see it.

I don't think you should bw saying it's not worth looking at. I always read it. (until it dissapeared, i don't know, i am going to click on your link after I've posted this.) I have also been reading all the other blogs on this page. It's great. I am a very nosy person, I like to know what's happening in other people's lives. Terrible, I know, it's one of my many faults ;)

Yeah, I can get it. Why EX-WARHEAD? I was searching on Warheads Musings.


Sh*t, sorry, I keep forgetting I'm logged in as Angelina Jolie at home. It's the closest I'll ever get to being her!

Ha ha hah haaaaaaaaaaaa.

I suppose it should really have been Warhead's Ex-blog.

Maybe I'll start blogging again.

By the way, just as a matter of interest, who was Brad Pitt? Do you know, Cal?

It was definitely the long jesus link that bumped the discussion page down, because now that it's off the page I don't get the problem. Hm. Well anyway, have a good weekend eveybody this is WKFM Radio Broadcasting-From-The-Top-Of-A-Boabab-Tree signing over and out.

yes, i do know. thanks

*tsk*

Cal is SUCH a tease.

But you're not going to tell me? ;) pleeeeeeeeeease?

And Brock, you can just shush!

Spine-Tingling
--
I just ran across [link]this old post of mine accidentally in the midst of Googling for something completely different. And since yesterday's post was Astronomical, I thought: this could do with un-Earthing.


I get a physical thrill running up my spine on considering almost any of the phenomena of this universe which are different from our desperately tedious monotony of single gravity well and sun and atmosphere and tiny temperature range and so on. And on considering just how tiny and weird is this whole world even in the tiny context of this one sun, let alone the sweeping concentrated awe of galaxies and their cluttered dazzling cores, let alone the slow swinging dance of galaxies around each other, dragged and dragging, let alone the awesome vastnesses of emptiness which the superclusters wrap around and squeeze through like the membranes in a soapy bubbled foam.

And where other people see shooting stars, I see huge chunks of alien rock, dust, and ice, each one having looped around another chunk (itself so massive that its own weight is squeezing its component atoms into and through each other, for gods sake), both of them falling towards each other and missing for god knows how many millions of years and just this once, this one microscopic flicker-instant of its multi-billenia existence, its lonely cold immortal black path strays near another chunk, this one big enough to hold layers of gas above its core. And in one shatteringly brief suddenness, it dies. Long slow stillness suddenly reveals itself to be astronomical speed and in immortality-shattering seconds this chunk's gases strip away its ice and dust then boil its rock, literally boil its rock, in a flash flare of death agony.

And then its component parts spray down into the gas, a cooling cometary mist, to slowly drift into and onto the world, to form a part of every breath.

We breath space dust every day, you and I. It enters our cells -- we are each of us part comet.

I want to walk under other suns, to see a pink sky, to feel alien gravity drag at my spine and my outstretched arms of alien lead, to stand in 500mph winds too thin to more than shriek at me, to crouch and stare at life based on a chemistry I can't touch for fear of burning it with my superheated carbon-water self. I want to see the night sky at a galactic core flare and burn as bright as Earth's day. I want to see a star 1,000 times bigger than the sun spinning 10,000 times a second and throwing matter's death agonies out in long universe-spanning lasers. I want to go outside the Oort cloud and find out what it is in the interstellar vastness that stops the solar wind, that constant belch of self's vitals that pours out of our sun in every direction every second of the day, washing over us as a radioactive gossamer torrent. I want... I want... I want to have been born a space animal. Which 1,000 years from now our technology might allow us to imitate.

In the interim, I work on my immortality and watch the work of others working at the universe, worrying at it like a granny eating an apple with one tooth. And sometimes I'm lost in a photo's implications. And sometimes the hair stands up on my forearms. And sometimes I'm simply struck dumb by beauty and wonder. And sometimes I see something that powerfully expresses a little of the sheer triviality of this world and the potential disasters that always tremble incipiently just fractions of one percent away, of just how little a thing is "the whole wide world."

The richest nations on Earth took a decade to struggle up to our nearest neighbour, draining whole economies to land scraps of tinfoil and titanium on a chunk of rock so close we can read by it at night. And they discovered a moon literally blasted by collisions with other chunks of this solar system; so much so that the very dust was as fine and as glassy and as abrasive as our industrial diamond grinding dust. And this moon is right next door, chasing with us along the little corridor we're sweeping out around the sun. It's only our tiny little smearing of atmosphere that wards off the smaller chunks constantly sweeping over us. And the larger ones? Well... Tunguska...

As our sky-monitoring improves, the more aware we become of just how thick our surroundings are with substantial chunks of matter that could raise megaton clouds over random parts of our Earth.

From today's "Astronomy Picture of the Day" comes an animated gif which is worth watching for a hackle-prickling reminder of what the moon's shattered face tries to tell us every evening.

"How often does an asteroid whiz by the Earth? The above time-lapse animation follows the orbit of the Earth around the Sun for two months in 2002 as numerous asteroids, also known as minor planets, approach and pass by. Some asteroids appear out of nowhere as they are plotted only when they were discovered. Most asteroids plotted were discovered only during the previous year. Although none of the plotted objects came inside the orbit of our Moon, our Solar System is filled with objects as small as bits of sand, usually left by a comet, that appear as meteors as they streak into the Earth's atmosphere every day. The only objects displayed are those visible from Earth closer than 20 million kilometers, color coded by three-dimensional distance. In comparison, the Earth is a relatively small target having a radius of about 6,400 kilometers. One significant research area in modern astronomy involves trying to find the majority of asteroids that could pose a future collision threat with Earth."

We don't arc through vacuum but swim through a cloud of lethal midges, bathed in the radioactive wash of the dying fusion reactor we're continually falling towards. A molten core of weird atoms ejected from supernovæ, creatable only by the death of other suns and still spinning within its liquid rock socket at Earth's pre-moon speed, protects us and our lower satellites from the sun. But our protection from asteroids is only our atmosphere.

Now, lean back and think for a moment on just how profound a protection that atmosphere is. Imagine a 6 foot man who put a half-inch (1cm) strip of something on top of his head and stood on a strip the same, and who then declared he was fully protected from the universe. Now imagine that strip of "something" is actually just gas. Gas so thin that you could only breathe the first 1mm of it.

Welcome to the world.

Don't be afraid, be Aware. Revel in Reality.

spam-encourager!

everyone should click thru the fantasmagoric first link in the post, though. (though mark's buggered the formatting so it's hard to read. still worth it.)

"So, you want to be a Space Animal"
www.neonbubble.com/article/...

If you're a normal boy or girl then you're probably kilometres away on the internet (the internet is measured in metric units despite Americans not understanding factors of ten) looking at filthy porn or photoshopped pictures of monkeys dancing atop the heads of various world leaders and, what's more, you've probably never wondered what life would be like if you were a mystically-powered space animal.

A pile of deep-fried clams pictured on Barry George's placemat. Instead of an innocent plate of seafood, Barry saw blatant suggestions of group sex and bestiality -- little people and animals writhing around in ecstasy. In addition, George argued, the ad copy with the picture was sexually suggestive: "a batch of succulent tender clams"; "Piled high with creamy cole slaw and french fries"; and "They always come... out crispy and crunchy."

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry...

It's posts like that that make me really regret having pissed you off. I'da liked to talk to you more. Now I have missed out on chatting with a lovely mind.

:(

You never pissed me off! I'd gladly talk to you about succulent tender clams, shiny red inviting lobsters.

Salty: That was a nice read. Kudos.

But what about copious amounts of tinfoil?

tastes awful

Hello Luce :) How's the weight-gain going?

So I know it's a bit cheeky, being a "troll" and all that, but I keep looking for this page, and it's always lost in the search for "blog" archives, and I keep having to search desperately for it should I wish to read any of your blogs, could one of you keep posting on it once a day in a rota so it is "Always on Top".

Doc: Just get a (free) bloglines account and subscribe to the RSS feeds of all the ones that have it. One time deal, and it tells you about new content.

Easy peasey.

Or we could put a really unique word in this thread.
Like BLOGSNOOP.

Haha! You've posted a pic of pregnant me. haha!

more memorably (it's the standard word), search on: iamcal BLOGROLL

or sign up here: bloglines.com, as per brock's post
or sign up here: blogrolling.com, which lets you paste a bit of code into your own blog's template which will put your blogroll on your blog and keep it updated. this also informs the bloggers that you've been reading them: they can see you in their list of referrers.
or do both. once you're set up, adding a blog is the work of a moment (click on a toolbar button), so you might as well try both.

Note : Blogroll, not Bogroll

My blog has kind of moved now - to here.
I know it's not a blog, but hey ho.

can i just say that the juxtaposition of

is great

Grim is that you? Sexeh.

What does 'juxtaposition' mean?

[wiki]Juxtaposition is an act or instance of placing two things close together or side by side. This is often done in order to compare/contrast the two, to show similarities or differences, etc.[/wiki]

Neat =]

answers.com -- your one-stop definition ... errr stop

eg answers.com/juxtaposition

I do have a blog, it is on yahoo 360 , I AM THE BEAST e,s
I also have an email, us-al-qaeda-cell@earthlink.net
I was just surfing and saw some Judge wrote an article of my suit against Michigan Police, filed on a certain day they called black friday the 13th, when the stocks dropped and Michigan had a minor earthquake in Lansing and California had a major earthquake, all signs my God set for a world of fools who go on into hell.

Hello Beastie and welcome to iamcal :)

*click click*

whhiiirrrr ?

metal miki!

I do I do! Does that make me cool?

Please?

You were already cool, but why have you been away from here for so long? Don't you lurv us any more?

btw, I'm now blogging at www.warhead1954.vox.com

We're not cool anymore, that's it. :(

actually wh, the love just became to much and I had to take a break for a while

you know how these things are

Odd, there's not a lot of lurv around here at the best of times.

*gives Warhead some lovin'*

If you want 'cool' people, all you need is a Myspace account. Every day, when I log in, it tells me about cool new people who've subscribed. I wonder how it knows whether or not you are cool when you register.

Ha! We’re all naked in Holland when the sun comes out. We only get about 3 hours of sun every year, so you better show all your skin when it happens. Vitamin D is hard to get otherwise!

true enough, but it's hail and snow today

I have two. They're both pink.

Here endeth my review.

Not what you would call an exciting blog, but it's important to me. I'm trying to write a server solution to produce accessible, standards compliant small business websites. (wow, that sounds like a riveting read). So if sleep evades you head to rapidsite.wordpress.com

heh heh *gets the horn*

*has been on B3ta too long*

I have a blog of uk shopping offers. Is it wrong to list it here?

Yes. Bugger off.

TSBAW = Genius

On that note, but different, who wants to either see the flaw in this plan or go there to be it: The Marvel Theme Park

JCOAB!!!! I remember that Superman story from an annual I got about 40 years ago, maybe 45. Weird.

(i thought you were 12?)
(so you were actually iamcal's first ever blogger?)

new "reality" show? "Who Wants To Be A Superhero"

wtf?

"ken lettul joeeeey luft thaht 20ton iron gurder off ahv twodeeyas puir victeem? no! he is crushed to death and joeeeey huz two feyaace the howussmeets in deesgreeyuss."

"todeeeyas challenge is to fly"

Hi,
I have some new blogs
Martial Arts
Best UK Mobile Games
Open Israel 4 u
I'll be glad to your visits and comments

spamRus.con

sul, i give up. what IS the flaw in the plan?

all i could think of was: spandex doesn't allow the same leeway for unfit people to act the part of the park's "characters", as disney's round cartoons does (do?).

really

Christ I'm not going to Israel

indeed, christ should not go to israel.
look what happened LAST time.

Isreal 1, Jesus 0 and no replay.

keepin' isreal

wait -- "no replay"? i thought that was the whole idea of the jesus stone-rolling tactic. could 2,000 years and several billion people all be WRONG?!

Hahaaaaaaa, no replay, but there will be a second leg, and I predict that Jesus will win on aggregate (which is a very hard surface to play on).

ass

sorry, that was meant to be something different

Aaaaaanyway. The flaw in the Marvel Theme Park, as I see it, is that if you have a load of people parading around dressed as Marvel Heroes/Villains you're inviting people to start some shit with them. How many people are going to be touching up Sue Storm or Aunt May? Punching Dr Doom in his metal face? Sitting on Spidey's chest, bitch slapping him screaming "You're just a fucking chancer! You dont deserve MJ! She was my ginger dream whore and you ruined it!". Or trying to pickpocket Daredevil, refolding his bills to watch as he pays for a $5 Slush Puppy with a 20 and walks away all cocky.

Perhaps its just me who shouldn't go.

my.co.ck

How many people are going to be touching up Sue Storm

dibs

DAMN you & mj.
she was MY ginger bint. MINE! until YOU! came along. you BASTard!!

also oneone.

BUT ONLY FOR FORM'S SAKE!!!onedammit1


mmmmmmmmmmmj

youi shouldn't go.

there's only so much any carpet can take.

note to self: fit breathalyser to keyboard


getting back at 3am and going online is rarely wise...
