2:22 am - In Which Joshua Rekindles Old Friendships and Becomes a Pasionate Revolutionary
|
Where do your feelings end, and what people want from you begin?
That came out more bitter than I intended. I m not implying that people around me are demanding and intrusive. What I really mean is that sometimes I don't know whether I really do feeel a certain way or if I am convincing my self I do to fulfill a certain expectation. I am scared it may characterize my dealing with the matter romantic. I can't really recall a time i ever had an unrequited crush. Is the only reason i fall in love that someone loves me, and i do not have the strength of character to resist that kind of affection and affirmation of my personal worth? i hope this is not the case. i feel as though i am progressing closer and closer to a more independent state of emotions every day, though, and especially with every romantic interaction. My current relationship (which i won't blab about here, thank you) is definitely a big step forward for me, as this is the first time i have ever made the "first move." I think that, ideally, if one loves another, he should be willing to express that love in whatever way he can. If his intended is not willing to involve herself romantically with him at a present time, he should be just wanting to spend quality time with her, and for now, that should be enough. Therefore, I promote the idea of maverick emotions! not caring what the world thinks! let us feel what we shall feel, because we feel it!
on a more pragmatic note, i am very happy to be deepening my relationship with my friend Alex. We were friendly before, but we didn't realize how well we got along til we missed each other. it's a nice ending to a weird post.
please discuss this idea, i you feel the pulling at your intellectual groin...
and welcome aboard Mark. your slavic sensibilities and impeccable dressing will be a wonderful asset to this blog.
peace,

1:48 am - The Sensationalist Manifesto
|
The Sensationalist Manifesto
We declare that we are multitudinous in approach! We assume the role of many, the mind of the massive. We are tapped into the pulse of planet Earth, and we are only beginning to dig in our fingernails.
We believe in ideas and do not hold by beliefs. We are willing to defend what we believe (for the minute) to the death. We are willing to change any of our minds. We are desirous of having them blown.
We think the world is a macro-organism. We consider the emergence of a super-perspective. We know that neurons communicate across a gap called a synapse, but nonetheless, they pass on information. We think we are neurons on a global scale.
We believe words only chip away at the truth. We think the truth is asymptotic. We recognize the inherent flaws in verbal and written communication. We consider words to be extensions of the ego. We love them anyway.
We believe in the truth of the singular experience. We think that numbers lie. We search for the kernel at the heart of subjectivity. We believe that everyone can understand anything, but not everything. We are eternally astounded.
We are vigilant for morsels of meaning. We see life as a canvas. We are blind artists with paint
All
Over
Our
Hands.
We see beauty in the fields and in the city. We search and we search and can not find the unnatural. We believe in consistency and artificial authenticity. We think evolution is the only measure of time.
We are becoming more and more convinced that we are nothing and everything all at once.
As above so below.
As above so below.
As above so below.
As above so below.
As above so below.
We think we are right. We know we are wrong.
We will accept the voice of one. We revel in the voices of the many. We resist the voice of the masses. We believe we exist to transcend. We think we are only just beginning.
We believe we can do anything if we try real hard. We inject new meaning if we say it with feeling. We correct punctuation as vigilantly as we check our facts. We think the world can be destroyed by a misplaced comma. We believe it can be created again.
We believe in the energy. We believe in the verve. We believe sincerity is a virtue. We believe in feeling everything until it hurts. We believe we can separate ourselves from anything. We believe the truth is too great to be a weapon. We believe it is like shooting the president with dark matter, the space between stars.
We believe everything until we are proven wrong. We believe You can change our minds. We believe in You.
ps folks! i have created a blog of my very own over at http://interrupting.blogspot.com this is where i will be doing my real writing. i apologize i never spent real effort on this lj. it will remain, though, but i ask that everyone checks my blog every now and then. thanks!

Which Historical Lunatic Are You?
You are Nicola Tesla, inventor of the Tesla Coil!
A minister's son from Simljan in Austria-Hungary, you were precocious from an early age. At three you could multiply three-digit numbers in your head and calculate how many seconds visitors to your home had lived. In awe of your older brother Dane, you shot a pea-shooter at his horse, causing it to throw him and inflict injuries from which he later died. This tragedy haunted you ever after. You frequently suffered bouts of illness with hallucinations throughout your life. During one affliction of cholera, you encountered the writing of Mark Twain, with whom you were later to be close friends. Later, another, this time mystery, illness inexplicably heightened your senses to a painful extent, only relenting when you hit upon the idea of the alternating current motor.
You developed an aversion to human contact, particularly involving hair, and a fear of pearls; when one would-be lover kissed you, you ran away in agony. Later, you insisted that any repeated actions in your day-to-day life had to be divisible by three, or, better yet, twenty-seven. You would, for example, continue walking until you had executed the required number of footsteps. You refused to eat anything until you had calculated its exact volume. Saltine crackers were a favourite for their uniformity in this respect. In the midst of important work, you forgot trivial details such as eating, sleeping or, on one memorable occasion, who you were.
Your inventions, always eccentric, began on a suitably bizarre note. The first was a frog-catching device that was so successful, and hence so emulated by your fellow children, that local frogs were almost eradicated. You also created a turbine powered by gluing sixteen May bugs to a tiny windmill. The insects panicked and flapped their wings furiously, powering the contraption for hours on end. This worked admirably until a small child came along and ate all the creatures alive, after which you never again touched another insect.
Prompted by dreams of attaining the then-ridiculed goal of achieving an alternating-current motor, you went to America in the hope of teaming up with Thomas Edison. Edison snubbed you, but promised fifty thousand dollars if you could improve his own direct-current motor by 20% efficiency. You succeeded. Edison did not pay up. It was not long until you created an AC motor by yourself.
Now successful, you set up a small laboratory, with a few assistants and almost no written records whatsoever. Despite it being destroyed by fire, you invented the Tesla Coil, impressing even the least astute observer with man-made lightning and lights lit seemingly by magic. Moving to Colorado Springs, you created a machine capable of sending ten million volts into the Earth's surface, which even while being started up caused lightning to shoot from fire hydrants and sparks to singe feet through shoes all over the town. When calibrated to be in tune with the planet's resonance, it created what is still the largest man-made electrical surge ever, an arc over 130 feet long. Unfortunately, it set the local power plant aflame.
You returned to New York, incidentally toying with the nascent idea of something eerily like today's internet. Although the wealthiest man in America withdrew funding for a larger, more powerful resonator in short order, it did not stop you announcing the ability to split the world in two. You grew ever more diverse in your inventions: remote-controlled boats and submarines, bladeless turbines, and, finally, a death ray.
While whether the ray ever existed is still doubtful, it is said that you notified the Peary polar expedition to report anything strange in the tundra, and turned on the ray. First, nothing happened; then it disintegrated an owl; finally, reports reached you of the mysterious Tunguska explosion, upon which news you dismantled the apparatus immediately. An offer during WWII to recreate it was, thankfully, never acted upon by then-President Wilson. Turning to other matters, you investigated the forerunner of radar, to widespread derision.
Your inventions grew stranger. One oscillator caused earthquakes in Manhattan. You adapted this for medical purposes, claiming various health benefits for your devices. You found they let you work for days without sleep; Mark Twain enjoyed the experience until the sudden onset of diarrhoea. You claimed to receive signals in quasi-Morse Code from Mars, explored the initial stages of quantum physics; proposed a "wall of light", using carefully-calibrated electromagnetic radiation, that would allegedly enable teleportation, anti-gravity airships and time travel; and proposed a basic design for a machine for photographing thoughts. You died aged 87 in New York, sharing an apartment with the flock of pigeons who were by then your only friends.
Ridiculed throughout your life (Superman fought the evil Dr. Tesla in 1940s comics), you were posthumously declared the father of the fluorescent bulb, the vacuum tube amplifier and the X-ray machine, and the Supreme Court named you as the legal inventor of the radio in place of Marconi. Wardenclyffe, the tower once housing your death ray, was dynamited several times to stop it falling into the hands of spies. It was strangely hard to topple, and even then could not be broken up.
Which Historical Lunatic Are You?
From the fecund loins of Rum and Monkey.
and another one!!
Which Survivor of the Impending Nuclear Apocalypse Are You?
A Rum and Monkey joint.
The Swiss!
Decked in neutrality for almost a billion years now, the Swiss are always the favourites to survive any nuclear conflict. Not only do they have the most amazing dress sense, but they've also got keen technical knowhow, a very logical cultural heritage and seventeen extra feet which they keep in their heads.
The Swiss are stereotypically associated with cuckoo clocks, chocolate, fondue and yodelling; it should be pointed out that they also enjoy running through the hills, goat farming and keeping the Earth safe from alien scum.
that's all folks,

8:04 pm - a poem
|
i have not written a poem in a very long while...
here you go:
"Unintention"
He spreads an oily smile wide against his face
So wide that
he barely notices the poison he
lets fall
from his lips.
His eyes blue like wading pools
are circular in astonishment
as his pearls of poison create small
pock marks on your arm and hand.
He thrusts the girl forward.
She, hanging from his shoulders,
a suit of armor of bone and softer flesh
stands between he and...
(the water blue of his eyes begins to spark and splatter
on the flashing raging griddle of yours)
she takes him away.
One day she will be forgiven
You used to believe love was using people, too.

4:59 pm - cool stuff in my life
|
so recently, i have been turned on....
to a bunch of cool stuff on the web
here are my new favorite websites:
1) best thing on the web by far!!!!! jesus and I love you!
2) hmmm lessee.... also amazing is this the truth!
p.s. please do not be offended
3) and this: wow, they really really do!
i also have a call to arms for all non-rich teenagers everywhere (damn rich people...)
are you sick and tired of feeling out of the loop, out of fashion, and out of hope?
do you feel uncool unhip, and ... ummm... unsafe?
well, take control of your own destiny!
make your own brand name clothes!
that's right you heard me, take a blank t-shirt of any color and simply (using sharpie of fabric marker) write the name of a popular brand on the front of your shirt. on the back feel free to scrawl and funny slogan or even a double entendre!
join the revolution, the thrift store revolution that is!
i have two (count 'em 2!) homemade abercrombie shirts in my collection, and boy look how my life has changed... for the better!
just listen to these moving personal testimonies:
"i used to think josh was a huge asshole, but now i know that josh is so cool. he has to be. he wears abercrombie."
- joan smith (17), senior
"josh used ot smell so so so so so so bad!!!!!!! now he deoes not cuz he wears abercrombie.. and deoderant."
-emily skinner (16), junior
"i used to hate josh, but now that he wears abercrombie, every time i see him, i want to jump his bones."
-bekah cline (56)
"josh used to be impotent. now there is not enough seed for him to spill on all the foxy honeys, now that he wears abercrombie that is"
-josh schwartz (17)
well that's my two cents. sriously, join the revolution. credit goes out to elly katzoff.

11:04 pm - once more with the crazy days
|
Hello all,
today it was nuts for the second time in a row!
yesterday i had school, then work from 3 to 5:15 ish then walked home, made a dinner for the road, then went to class til 7 then had dance practice til 10 ish for a festival in boston sundday for which i have to wake at 4:45 or whatever.
Oy.
So today i had inkblot til 4:45 ish then i walked fast to bingo to work til 7 ish thne to valentines for a poetry reading in honor of one of my favs Charles "hank" Bukowski.
it was interesting.
It was a bunch of guys (and one chica) reading angry bitter poems about why the world sucks. Interspersed among the crap were good ones by bukowski (who died on 3/9/94).
so i wrote a poem in respponse:
"At Valentine's 3/11/04" (creative huh?)
Thorugh windows, I watch
older men expain the failings of the world
to me, and, weakened by their
bludgeoning words,
I thank them.
Through windows, I watch
men and women who drink pretend to listen
as they murmur alcoholic nothings
and slip their noses in others' ears
the poems slide over their heads and
arms, and no words get caught in
their hair.
I watch them, uneasy as they are.
Through the windows, I wait
for a world with no poetry
when all things needing fixing have their mechanics
the former poets and warriors and poet-warriors who will
leave their work from which they can never leave
with grease-caked hands and their
usual gray weary eyes.
I dream of the world with no prophets
and every kiss is poetry
in essence, in a sense.
I look in your eyes and hope you will not look away
i hope you all liked it and good night!
love and israeli dance festivals,
~josh

what's your cowboy bebop theme song?
Personally (and i know that this will get me in trouble among the lj community)Cowboy Bebop is one of the only animes I really consider great pop culture. Another is Trigun, but Bebop holds a special place in my heart. Cuz I love jazz. Cuz I love cowboys. Cuz space is cool. And so are guns. And cowboys who shoot guns in space while jazz music plays in the background is an unbeatable combination.
Let's face it: most manga/anime feels like it was written for twelve year old girls, by twelve year old girls. but not bebop. Its characterizations are mature, and it succeeds in combining goofball humor with tragic story arcs. and guns are cool (in cartoons).
Right, so to explain further: I am a slut!!!

I will be writing for the website <a href="http://www.bookslut.com" <br>bookslut.com<br> <a/> shortly (keep your fingers crossed). It is an excellent site of book reviews. the pieces posted are mature and fun to read. you can really tell that those involved are truly in love with the written word. and that's just like me, except i'm in love with the sound of my own voice and/or my name in print. Well that's all on this end. Peace, ~josh
