so the environment? So What

2008-04-24T21:14:37Z

We each have to ask are selves, what do the statistics show us? Is it bad that we are polluting the world with increased co2 addition. I mean they think we are in an interglacial period so its alright that the world is getting hotter. And increased co2 is good for trees and other plants. But is it worth the risk, to potentially ruin the world for the future? No one really looks to the future of the great-great grandkids but what will they have to live with from the mistakes made today? why don't we just each do small things to make the world better and possibly save some money in the processes.

so life of every day

2008-04-22T10:15:25Z

i',m not much about saving the environment. but if we do try now to become more eco friendly than we may be able to live a better life in the long run. by using less fozille fuel and more recyclable materials than we'll be able to live a healther, and cheaper

if the world could be that easy

2008-04-22T09:49:36Z

What if the world could be that easy than we would be smooth sailing. even if people agree with each other or understand one another they still can fight. Its human nature to want to be better than another. they play that off all the time. Why do people watch those reality shows, to say "at least I'm better than them." Thats even why the simsons is such a hit. People can relate to the "American family" but they can also say to themselves at least I'm not as bad as that family. I think half of showing really depressing third world countries for the churches to collect money, so people here in America can think at least I'm better off than them and may feel good enough about themselves to give a little money. Oh. going off on a tangent. well people may be able to show kindness to one but the other dosn't have to show kindness back. But people can't all get along. It's the price humanity pays for being individuals. Every single person grows up in different ways. each day contributes to the way they become. Some have smiler experiences and environments some don't. roughly all American children have values from their childhood are closely related to one another. but at the same time those other countries have different children instilled with different values. So when two cultures meet its like two large clouds coming together. Sometimes in the be gaining its a thunderstorm and eventually it dies down and the sun comes out and everyone can be if not kind to the other, at least civil.

taxes

God we pay so much taxes. for what? to go to war. America has tripled its debt and now Americans when they retire have to have so much money and probably will never be able to retire and have the good old life. I was just doing my taxes and filed them wrong last year. I have to give them four hundred dollars. Its because I claimed my self as a dependent and my parents claimed me as a dependent also. I asked them if they could A. give me four hundred dollers or B. give me what they're getting back in taxes. They said C. pay most of Toni's collage fund. Sigh. thats how it flows I suppose. Arn't taxes one of those defendants (meaning it will always happen whether we like it or not) like death but more frequent.

we can't start over the world

2008-04-22T07:12:06Z

Well we can't start over like a game of chess. We only have one world. We should make the most of it don't you think? Well we as a nation and as a globe community. should somehow live together. Einstein pondered, "I don't know what kind of weapons will be used in the third world war, assuming there will be a third world war. But I can tell you what the fourth world war will be fought with -- stone clubs."

family

2008-04-15T16:21:43Z

well I guess everyone has that moment when a loved one dies. maybe not because of a drama but because they were old and it was their time. I'm going to visit my grandparents grave this month. I miss them terribly. Sometimes I wish I was better to them. My Grandmother had alsheimers. She always remembered me but it was frustrating talking to her. But I do remember when she had all her mind. I try to remember her that way. Its just I miss them so much. They had such a full life, my grandfather couldn't stop building things maybe thats why I like building things. I'm still not really that good at building. But I'm working on it. Well lets remember people who have passed away for a moment and enjoy those moments: cherish them and keep the memories close.

love, yeah right

2008-04-15T01:19:47Z

So I'm having a little bit of problems with relationships. I haven't found that one yet. He's out there I know it but I see couples that work so well together that I want that. But I'm stubern sometimes and really random. Everyone has their draw backs. I wounder if have I've found that one and I don't really know it yet. What if I dress up with high heels would I be able to attract that one? Then I think I really don't want to settle down:Be taken forever .If I did meet that one person, knowing full well about him being my soul mate, I really don't know what I'd do. maybe I'll just get put off by the guy and try to get far away from him. maybe I won't, oh well. right now I want a man but then I don't. so indecisive.

parking

2008-04-14T21:20:50Z

so I've heard horror stories coming here and finding parking, First the two hour parking spaces. The people who actually come see their car get a boot on it. Then actually going to the palace to pick up your car, then you need to call a taxi to get the the towing place which is even more money. I'm about to get a parking pass for the summer and next year and its frustrating because even that cost a lot of money. Plus gas is an arm and a leg. But there is also the option to find a space of a little spray paint. Oh totally can relate to the big car thing. Well last year my mom, after going into the city with my car, comes back with the paint chipped from my car's bumper. Chipped!!!! Anyway we thought that the culprete TAPPED my bumper while trying to find a space. Or my mother was lieing to me and she tapped a electric pole. Enjoy!

pranks

2008-04-14T20:58:25Z

I thought this video really hit me hard. Its about doing irresponsibles things without really knowing the consequence. Its about imagination taking over real life. its about being scared: freighted like when your in a dark alley or the same feeling when your all by yourself in a big house. It has a little bit like the ring feel, but the reason why it hit me is because it was just a group of girls frighting another for fun but that that prank became something more to the girl receiving it. To the point that she thought she really was in a really dangerous situation and she doubted herself. I just watched great debtors and junior this genius boy was asked what is mans greatest weakness. He said doubt.

go green

2008-04-14T07:52:38Z

I thought this gave a little new outlook on going green. All of what they talk about is pretty interesting, like corn, and beef, I would even like to know more about msg (a dative that makes flavor richer but is sortof bad for you) I even was watching the news and it said to eat something that your grandmother would eat in her day. There are so many preservatives, and everything that I think our systems are different than back in the day. I've seen si-fi stuff where humans food is toxic to every animal except human. some of the going green is a joke I won't lie, the car should have been more advance than it is today, but the oil componies would lose money. Everyone or mostly everyone needs a car and then like food a car need constantly needs gas so the oil componies have a continuse money maker. Why spend money to make a better car, but in the long run make less money? like that article that we read a about america not looking to the future, well if america's ancesters looked to the future than they would have seen that aventuly there will be no oil left. And what dose oil to us mean today. I picture a muslim, but befor just thriety years ago the image was something along the lines of the protagonest in "There will Be Blood". A wronged outdoors buisness man was the image of oil. Today 70% of America's oil comes from overseas as apose to 30% in the sevitiese. Why can't we use sun as a source of energy? Well one of the big reasons why we don't is because you can't make money off of the sun it's prevelient, same as electricity cars. They came out a while back but they stopped production, why? Because it cost to much and it could only go eighty, and you couldn't go cross country with it. Come one its more along the lines of they can't charge so much for electricity than oil. The car companies are coming up with the fuel cell that is part oil part generator part electricity and its helping. But if you look at how much computers have become more advanced to cars , theres a large difference in the progression of each to improve. A lot of the going green in the long run are only helping the companies, by having people carry bags than the cooperation doesn't have to provide for them any more. Each bag is five cents each, if you consider how many bags are used each day than you can see how much a cooperation can save. These light bulbs that are more efficients and really do help the consumer over all save money on their electric bill, but the energy saving light bulbs cost more money. Obama wants to eventually fad the old light balls out. I don't think he has the right to do that. What about having the right to choise, and how about if someone only turns on a light to really often, should he or she have to spend a ton of money on a light bulb.

passing on

2008-04-14T07:22:21Z

so I wounder if thats all to life. living and having moments that can't leave you connecting with others or whatever. I thought this was interesting because although humans aren't immortal. we pass on some of ourselves to our children. This reminds me about my grandparents because they have this wealth of experience, that makes them hansom and beautiful to me. So much they can talk about, when someone lives though time they take those memories of that time with them. So they are the living embodiment of those times that they have been through. Have you ever picked up something old and wonder where it has been. I think thats the reason why we are so fascinated with old things. Like an old tree, objects which are old cary a certain weight that isn't how much mass they have but the presents it has. Old toys whenever I look at them I wounder who that little girl or boy did with this object did they clutch it tight to them and how did it end up in my hand today. oh well its just something to think about

homework

2008-04-14T06:33:10Z

Homework - video powered by Metacafe ok so homework, everyone hates it and its not like I've ever had a horrible teacher. but I did have a time where my dog did eat my homework. My family had just gotten her, and she decides to eat everything in site. Well she didn't eat my homework, I could have just reprinted it, its more she ate the packet that I had to write the paper one due the following day. so accidents do happen. although we should all learn to turn stuff on time especially me it just makes the world run smother and have more stuff accomplished.

After my adviser forward me this short, I thought this video had so many levels. humans faults of not being able to accept are selves with who we are. Also we are just machines and that machines as we reach a technology age with ai and all that machines become humans but humans aren't rational beings humans just aren't. this video just leaves me with this sense of loss, aloneness, artificialness, and as well as a reaching sense of trying to connect and can't.

Kids, thats why drugs are bad

2008-04-14T04:38:01Z

So I've been looking for an apartment. I found some roommates to room with. Minner detail, they smoke illegal substances. Well I really don't care, what ever floats your boat. But it comes to if I really want to have that where I live. dosn't matter if I get busted I go to jail with them because I signed the lease.Not I woun't live with them. Oh thought this film was cute. Some days I think every human wears thouse rose colored glasses through either help from drugs, tv, or there ability to shut out everything that is prevalent and not so nice. I was reading this article by Howard Zinn entitled "we can't handle the truth- America's selective memory and massacres long since forgotten." Anyway it talks about how we make the Boston massacre so big. It was the fire to start the revolt against Britain, blah blah blah, but there are so many massacres that America has done. Theres: taino massacre, pequot massacre of 1636, masscres of indians colorado 1864 in montana 1870 in south dakota 1890, 1917 massacre of East St. Louis,bay niew massacre in milwaukee 1886, 1897 coal strike pennsylvania, 1919 elaine, arkansas, 1921 in tulsa oklahoma, 1914 ludlow Massacre, 1937 chicago memorial day massacre, eight year war conquer the philippines, moro massacre,, My Lai Massacre 1968, Not to bash America, I love my country, but to become aware that everything isn't rose colored, just like drugs have its good and bad and that kids are doing them and that we let corpret America have too much power, America also as a whole isn't so noble. I really don't know what to do about drugs, or war or innocents dieing. As Ignazio Silone's novel Fontamare it states and I ask you the same, Che fare? what shall we do?

Non-violence

2008-04-14T04:25:14Z

have you ever wondered if everything would work out. If we are alone. But I thought this video was cute. I remember seeing one that was smiler but better. It I think won award. I'll still look for it. Anyway I thought this kinda made fun of America a little bit. How we don't really help are homless and end up making conflict when its not needed. Yet, thats mostly done anywhere if you think about it. this was done in Romania I believe, and basically has a cheese message. Give and not receive, make stuff work for the common good that type of thing.

here it is
