Using my blog to try and make the world a better place. If I can make someone forget their troubles for a few minutes a day, it's all worth it.

I watch the ripples change their size, but never leave the stream of warm impermanent sand. So the days flow through my eyes but still the days seem the same. And these children that you spit on as they try to change their world are immune to your consultations. They're quite aware of what they're going through.

Sing a song, sing out loud, sing out strong.

Sing a song, sing out loud, sing out strong.
Sing of good things, not bad. Sing of happy, not sad. Sing a song, make it simple to last your whole life long. Don't worry that it's not good enough for anyone else to hear, just sing a song.

I always wanted to live at a place that had a little garden with a pathway to a pond. Never happened, though. Well, maybe someday...

This blew me away:

I was going to do a post on Krazy Straws, but I found something else. Apparantly, the iPod is not the first of its kind. In '77 there was the above - The Pocket Hi-Fi. I had no idea this existed until today, I never heard about these before. You learn something new every day, and this just goes to show that nothing is really new, it's just updated versions of what used to be.

BRILLIANT FIND, Joe - It must have cost $4000 or something. Righteous headphones. This is my new favorite post.

FYI ,This was an art piece that was made by an artist this year (2010).The premise was ,what if you were able to go back in time with the technology we have today?The clue is the name alt1977.It would have really been cool had this existed ,though.
