Aesops tales make me laugh... expectially This one... But perhaps it's just my juvenile mind...

Well, they just lost a viewer.

Just get to the end.

Neurocam. The CD.

Going back to the start of all this when I first read about it on Tripts website and I got 'that' email, Neurocam's vision seemed to be Neurocam seeks to exploit recent developments in Neurological programming to remotely subvert will. I wonder if this is still the case....?! - Quilly.

This question was posed recently by one Mr Quilly. Suspiciously recently if you ask me... ;)

But supspicions aside. That is exactly what the C.D was about. A Mac based interactive media thingy that described Neurocam. The Headpiece.

The thing about it was though, I've heard it all before, "Neurocam’s transparent head-stem contains micro-circuitry that links hundred of processors in series to create a data rate of 265 megabytes/sec. This speed is required to activate the headset’s millions of electro-pulse generators which send electrical information to specific points on the NEURAL LACE SENSOR NET SYSTEM.".

Basically, somebody else had this C.D. They had it back in March.

They also describe it's contents a lot better than I will. Go have a read.

Anyways, the headset seems to be a device that can record and project experience directly to and from the brain... Which is definitly an exciting prospect. And if I ever get the chance to wear one, providing it doesn't explode the head of the guy offering it to me, than hell yeah, I'm putting it on.

I do have to wonder as to what has happened with Neurocam over the past six months though. It started with this sus Neurocam, then it seemed that Robert Henley went renogade, and then there was a whole heap of Y1 wierdness. Then henley disappeared and the Neurocam contacts all changed up. Now it's back to where it started. Only with completely different players...

Either way, I'm looking forward to what will happen next.

Oh, And if you are just turning into the Neurocam experience, I can offer you a whole heap of reading...

Firstly, Tript's archive of neurocam experience. This one had the advantage of being dated.

Secondly, Neurocam has set up an archive of posts from all the players involved. Most of this one is dated... Not all of it though.

It's been running for a long time... Enjoy.

I've just installed a fun little plug-in for Firefox called...

Stumble upon.

And while I'm sure it's tracking my internet usage, it comes up with some good ones...

Self-defence with a Walking-stick

By E.W. Barton-Wright

From Pearson’s Magazine, 11 (February 1901), 195-204.


Ha! I love it... you never know when this will come in handy...

I don't know if this is just juvenile or not...

But my new payslip has the words "Pull off gently here" written on it...

*giggle*

Republican Switchers.

here is a website that documents the switch of prominent republicans that feel that Bush has abandoned them and their moderate views for something more of the "Far-Right" flavor.

So I've been supporting the Sox since I first saw them...

Mid way though the 4th game of the current series...

I think I might be their lucky charm

Crazy bastard...

Tehran - An incensed Iranian motorist doused his car in petrol and set it ablaze with a match after picking up a parking ticket, media reported on Wednesday.

You reckon if you set up a web site...

That offered free "credit checks", that you would get idiots handing over their details?

I think you would...

Wednesday, October 20, 2004

In case nobody has noticed...

I have added a new game to my sidebar...

Gothador

It's sorta like Ravenblack: vampires, only without the vampire, and more stuff going on...

It's definitely worth a look in to you all.

*Cough*PlusIgetBonusPointsIfYouAllSignUpAndIllBeYourBestFriendIfYouDo*Cough*

But don't just take my word for it, listen to these shining reviews.

"What, no. Take your nerd-game away from me" - JoJo.

"It is really really good." - Graham

"17 w4z t3h r0xorz" - a0lgrrl

"When I first tried it, I was dubious, but it really really works. Thanks xade" - Bran

"I haven't played it, but I'm sure glad you're not making up quotes from people" - Solonor

So, go and play it. Everyone loves it. Who are you to resist it...

You can't say he wasn't persistant...

After spending hours Sunday trying to catch an elusive Connellsville man suspected of stealing five separate vehicles, including a Hummer and a dump truck, police finally tracked him down yesterday morning to an apartment in his hometown.

Has anyone read this one before?

Remember when Israel pulled out of the Gaza strip?

Well apparently that was because the Gaza strip isn't neccessary to fulfil the prophesy of the Rapture.

This is insane!! you don't create foreign policy based on "prophesy".

I suppost everything else the man has done is pandering to the hard-right wing white rich christian males...

And if this is true, people will be doing everything they can to ensure the temple of Solomon is never ever rebuilt, therefore, no rapture...

In fact, if I was the devil, and god willing some day I will be, I would nuke Israel to the ground and poison the Earth around it to ensure that nobody will be building any temples there...

That will fix that rapture business...

So it's coming down to game seven.

The sox win game 6.

never before has a team won after being 3-0 down...

It's exciting stuff.

Go Sox

Prelude to the last Neurocam post...

Ok, I promised you all the story of how I got my packages...

I'll point you in the direction of Tript's account of events. And I'll fill in the rest.

Ok, you're back? good.

Firstly, I was suprised to recieve 2 packages, I only expected one, but was told by the first guy to "wait for another package. Don't turn around.".

Secondly, I was tipped off to the posability of being followed prior to the mission, hence I was particularly on guard. I *was* suprised to find out who they were though...

Thirdly, my version of hotfooting was running through the bunch of homeless guys behind the church. I must say though, they weren't happy that I was using their gate, I would have hated to have been following me, they really weren't happy, then exchanging my orange beanie for a blue/green one and changing my top...

Fourthly, the packages. Both were manilla envelopes. One contained a CD. The other, Some documents and a CD. Sadly, holding them up to the window on the tram revealed nothing...

Fifthly, the coffee, it was good.

Sixthly (that one rolls of the tongue doesn't it?), don't forget the CD that *I* got in return. I still haven't gotten to a Mac, lousy too busy, but I promise to soon.

Jo having a little rant about anarchists...

I think they're sorta talking smaller than suburbs kinda communities. Like
tribes.

That's so it though. Personal responsibility monitored by personal ethics
only works without governing if everyone has a compatible set of ethical
standards. If one guy decides it doesn't phase him to go raping and killing
five year olds there's no recourse, except perhaps mob brutality. And what
about the fact that my personall ethical standards are so inextricably
linked to the judicial system and the government system that we have in
place (as would be an absolute majority I'm guessing) that to tear away
those systems would be a massive violation of what I percieve to be my
personal standards and rights. Even if 10 percent (which is the figures
they say they need to crush the system) of Australia voted their way, what
right would they have to violate 90% of the communities personal ethical
standards? I mean for a party that apparently wants to run on goodwill...
It's just total bullsh*t.

The whole thing would be a return to the darkages. Without organised larger
communities and cohesive government there can be no effective health or
education or welfare. There is no way that any small community would be able
to afford to run or update a hospital for instance. What are they after? A
society of dimwitted thugs, the majority of which will cark it before they
turn thirty-five? And what about things like power stations and the like?
Gah...

To which I completely agree.

This is an interesting article...

ruce Bartlett, a domestic policy adviser to Ronald Reagan and a treasury official for the first President Bush, told me recently that ''if Bush wins, there will be a civil war in the Republican Party starting on Nov. 3.'' The nature of that conflict, as Bartlett sees it? Essentially, the same as the one raging across much of the world: a battle between modernists and fundamentalists, pragmatists and true believers, reason and religion.
But would it actually happen? and more importantly, will it have the chance to happen? you know, with the election and all...

YOGI!!!

NOOOO

Hey Jo...

This looks like your kinda game...

It's all because of...

This nasty little thing... And in particular The guy who runs it, that I have been watching the baseball...

Woo. Go Sox.

I just scored me a copy of...

Team America.

I can't wait to watch it...

Monday, October 18, 2004

Sorry, but you have to register...

If you wanna go read about how the New York Times is supporting John Kerry.

It ends with a nice little recap of the ineptitude and flat out bs of the Bush administration.

And she can explode into confetti.

The church of small dog

A day of the Cam.

So I walked in and ordered a coffee. I then sat down and looked around for the guy I would be meeting. The couple near the counter? The other couple near the door? Perhaps it was the guy sitting outside, the one with the rubber mask.

So I went out to say hi. (And paraphrase, after a few drinks... so bare with me...)

"So, were you followed?" I was asked.

"Yeah, but I'm quick on my feet." I replied.

"That's good. Let me be the first to congratulate you on your promotion. See this pendant", indicating his shiny shiny white pendant (see: badge).

"Excellent" I said, "I have a package for you, actually I have two."

I then gave him the two envelops I had received earlier.

"Thank you" he said and then proceded to give me one of the books he was carrying.

"This is for you. Read it cover to cover, but not here of course."

And with that, he gave me a book.

Battle for your mind.
By William Sargant
"A physiology of conversion and brain-washing".

And then he said his parting words and then stood up.

Upon standing, a black sedan drove up, he climbed in the back seat. A man in the passenger seat was holding a digital camera and took a photo. I made sure to smile and wave. I'm sure it will wind up on the Neurocam website, in the reports section.

Anyways, on my way home, I checked out the book. The inside cover read.

"Dear James. A gift from me to you. Bridget".

And I must say, thank you bridget. I am pleased that I was given the opportunity to gain this.

Anyway, I continued reading and upon reaching page 149, I discovered the following 90 pages cut out, cut out just in the right shape for a C.D to fit.

The contents of which I will fill you all in on, when I find out what's on it. If it is appropriate to share that is.

As for where I got the original packages, I'll fill you in on that later.

Nah...

They're just making This shit up.

How the hell was she picking these men up? or was she sleeping with her 'friend' who was staying in the spare bedroom?

What the hell?

Friday's conspiracy.

Here

As my new mantra goes, it's the moderates that empower the extremists...

The scary thing is how damn well this theory is foot noted...

scary scary stuff.

Go read this.

All through high school I had never really been mentally challenged, and the ease with which I dealt with simple material became confused with aptitude.

A link from the house of Ducky.

john kerry is a douche bag but im voting for him anyway.

Even if you don't like the man. Vote for him. We all need you to.

It's bureaucracy gone mad I tells ya.

So this kid gets a fake musket from his school for a civil war re-inactment.

Chucks the musket, along with the entire costume, into the boot of his car.

A few days later, gets arrested at his school for having a fake musket.

Mad, I tells ya.

It's like that kid that gave his girlfriend a shot on his asthma puffer cause she used the exact same medication as he, and left hers at home, and was having an asthma attack.

He got suspended for pushing drugs. Zero Tolerance peoples. It's bureaucracy gone mad I tells ya.

Look ma...

A dinosaur

You know what, I really hope this guy can prove and document this.

I really do.

Stress=bad.

See, This is another reason I need to quit my job and become a full time internet bum.

This is terrible.

They were a couple weeks together, they knew each other. So orders came down from the generals in Baghdad, we want to clear the village, like in Samarra. And as he told the story, another platoon from his company came and executed all the guards, as his people were screaming, stop. And he said they just shot them one by one. He went nuts, and his soldiers went nuts. And he's hysterical. He's totally hysterical. And he went to the captain. He was a lieutenant, he went to the company captain. And the company captain said, "No, you don't understand. That's a kill. We got thirty-six insurgents.

...

You know what I told him? I said, fella, I said: you've complained to the captain. He knows you think they committed murder. Your troops know their fellow soldiers committed murder. Shut up. Just shut up. Get through your tour and just shut up. You're going to get a bullet in the back. You don't need that. And that's where we are with this war."
This has happened. This is an atrocity. This is horrible. This better be picked up by the mainstream media.

This morning when I was walking to the train station...

Some random guy said to me. "Good morning mate".

I thought that was really nice. I think I'm gunna like coburg.

I can tell you, we never got that kind of random niceness in Mulgrave...

or Malvern.

or Taylors Lakes.

or Oakleigh.

St. Kilda was pretty nice like that though.

If somebody called me Old Cock, I would take it as an insult...

Apparently it's not.

so prepare to be called Old Cock.

I need to watch this more closely...

Seriously, This is how you fold your shirts...

The decline of the Liberal Party

Seriously, how could you not want to read an Article with a title like that...

It is very interesting and I believe that the same effect might prove true in the states as well. I hope so...

Oh, and for all you who are... unfamiliar... with Australian politics. the Liberal party are the conservative ones... kind of an oxymoron... eh...

Waaahh. I want my Snow flake back.

And my caption competition.

And my Hello Sphincter.

Lousy Buzznet. They have been down for so long...

so... anyone know where I can get some free webspace that won't make pop-ups or piss me off?

Woo. I'm Number One.

At least if you're typing 'blog & "oh my god its so big"' into google anyways...

Cyberkinetics

Yep. This is definitly the future.

Just wait until the hook it up wirelessly...

- Lights come on.
- T.V changes channel.
- Automatic vacumn cleaner gets set to 'dirt patrol'.

All by thinking it.

Yeah... that's a future *I* want to be a part of...

Me and my robotically enhanced figure...

You wanna know why certain people think other people...

are irrelevent, frivilous and pointless?

Because of this story. Basically, MacDonalds currently has a little promotion with a certain website.

A website that has fun and games and crap. Just like Macdonalds.

Now, they are getting put in the shit because this website has Slot machines. And Poker. And Blackjack. And hookers... ok, they don't have hookers, but the do have the rest. Hell, they have *hundreds* of games.

They are Neopets.

C'mon gambling watch dog. C'mon concerned parent groups. Neopets ain't the enemy. They are a lovely, fun, safe and educational internet enviroment for the kiddies.

Hell, there was nothing better than those kiosk scratchcards. I still remember scratching the little bastards. You could make so much on them...

Just fucking get over yourselves. Go out and target something that actually needs to be targeted...

oh, and while you're at it, I think I can play poker on the MSN website... go get them...

Tuesday, October 12, 2004

I'm sure that was just illegal...

But Trang. I got that... thing... you were after...

Hey Jo, did you know that...

Zach braff has a blog

Just thought you might want to know that...

I love reading about discoveries on the quantum level...

This is no exception.

As you all know, I'm a firm supporter of Medical Science...

And they just keep giving...

Solonor has a post that everyone should read.

Here.

But take it to it's next logical step. It isn't that long ago that America had a civil rights record equaling that of Saudi Arabia.

It takes time for things to change. It take time for ideals to change.

From what I have learnt of the world, ideals generally aren't changed with a sword.

Why is it...

that my daughters favorite song is the theme from Neighbours...

I'm inventing a new word.

I don't know if has been used before,
