Insanity is Espernut's destination too.
O the Insanity!! < Flings self across the void >
lol... at least it's across the void, and not into its midst... there's still hope for him...
Actually, I stymied myself.. How can one fling one'self across the void. Isn't a void an endless thing? even if only a vaccum? (I'm half serious.. I may be getting trapped by lingistics.)
For no.. logical reason.. I like this bit from Flash Gordon:
"Foolish humans, hurling yourselves across the void, without any idea of who or what may be out there".
Made me wanna go. Hop a flight, etc.
yes... to travel where no man has traveled before...
I was think of a void up and down but not side to side, more of a contained void like the worm holes on Farscape.
I think I get it. Like an abyss. There's got to be something on the other side.. or circular rim.. (owch.. my head is bending.) Worm holes are interesting.. I hope they're real. : )
yes... It would be so cool to see one... I wonder what they look like, I bet they're beautiful with lots of colors... I love pictures of space, especially the nebulas... Is that right? Is nebulas the plural of nebula? or is it nebuli?
nebulii? Close enough. I like the Horsehead Nebula. The secondary favorite photos are "collections" of galaxies.. Like 8 or 9 clearly discernable "spirals" at all angles to each other. My brain (?) says "nice shape.. circular" it's only until I realize.. how vast.. each 1 of those 8 or 9 truly is.. that's overwhelming. (As in .. awesome.)
Somewhere lost in the vastness of space is the realization of one's true self and an inner beauty only surpassed by the infinite majesty of this universe.
you make me want to write..
What you just wrote was very deep.. no pun intended either.
I like it when you're hopeful and upbeat.
Sonic boom...
LOOK AT ALL THE LIGHT!!!
🙂
BTW.. ARE you out of your writer's block?
not really... I've been to busy with other things, I've just not had the chance to actually sit down and start writing... hmmm... but I've got a lot of great plot lines that I've been working on in my head...
You're out of school, semi-trapped at home.. and are dewin' other things.. but mentally chewing over the plot lines.. About right, that?
yeah... that's about it...
I think it's the only good thing about retreating to an alternate reality of the mind so often.
I think writers in general would tend to do that more often.
Or is it to truly be Economics?
I have no idea... Why ask these unanswerable questions?
Perhaps I'll work with icecream the rest of my life. *gag*
I seriously doubt that. A major book selling shop perhaps.. to stay near the words.
I should probably take my own advice. I like book shops, actually.
Book shops are fun, I'd like to own my own, would you like to go into business with me?
I'd catalog it.. (What? I would!) But you'd do better runnin' the thing.
You could explain the complexities of the booming Bell Curve associated with selling Harry Potter books versus cost/profit analysis.. while I sloowly glazed over...?
Hay on way on the england welsh boarder big book fair be there.
🙂 it works for me
I like the idea, truly.. bookstores. I have seen a multi-story Barnes & Nobles.. it was like..going to Mecca?? The sonic boom.. the bright light.. new book smell .. I've mentioned this to others before.. I'll get in there and get all quivery.. Not enough time!.. a part of me wails. (Coffee helps.) Plus I think I'd meet (and be challenged.. read that.. "have to keep up with" ) a higher, more well read group of literophiles. (I make up words shamelessly..)
.. ergh, don't think I'm whack, or anything. It's not like I fell to my knees when I discovered the Dewey Decimal System or anything.. (Those people are outrageous liars, all of em'...)
lol espernaut, I can relate...
My college bookstore is a 6 story Barnes and Nobles, they call it a "landmark bookshop"... Ofcourse they also sell all sorts of stuff with the college emblems and lots of dorm room necessities, but any, still, a very cool place.
Anyway, in my opinion, bookstores are the greatest places to hang out. Especially with a big shop like Barnes and Nobles because there's lots of space, people won't bother you, you can explore your interests, and get something to drink or a paistry or a gelato or something... You can also meet some very interesting people there...
six stories.. (said in awe..) I'd like that. Here's just junk for you.. (Something I've noticed.) Barnes & Nobles: older salespeople.. male and female, suit, tie, dresses, emaculate. Bespectacled even. Books A Million: teenybopper.. very, very young, shirts and pants. Acne. (sigh) Waldenbooks: Sloppy store, outdated, can't find anything. Amazon.com: Faceless. I dunno.. I'm drifting.
Borders: clone of Barnes & Nobles... But with out the giant faces on the walls.
I forgot Borders. Web only? Gotta add to my list.
no,,, they have big shops... I meant none of the giant faces of authors all over the place like at Barnes and Nobles.
Got it.
You know.. to reference to your posting title: Destination:
I shoulda said.. "Second star to the right, then straight on till midnight".
But then the Einstein thing kicked in and time would compress.. and midnight would therefore have no relevance. .(relatively.. owh ouch.. I hurt myself..) Then I think.. I'm thinking to much.. and then that Damn Spoon reference.. again.. It's Matrix.. just realized. Smartie.
"The door's ajar.".. it's a jar. Owchie.. my neurons...
It's a can, not a jar, and it's not a door, it's a window...
I caw't tell if you're going into your own hyperdrive..or just hyperbole... just it's fascinating to watch you disintergrate.. ehm.
Hmmm. I musta "won" on this thread at least. snicker.
hmph... I'm a disintegrating hyperbole, am I... well... I...
hmmm...
Well maybe I'll just let you win for now...
(but I don't take advantage of my good mood tonight...)
I doubt I could actually "win" one.
lol.... hey, anythings possible...
But.. is it likely? (ohhh.. Chaos theory.. drip drip)
Remember the Improbability Drive... The more and more improbable something becomes, the more and more likely it becomes... It's an inverse relationship.
I'm not familiar with this concept. Are you kidding or you know something I missed?
LOL... It's from the Hitchhicker's Guide to the Galaxy... And I also happen to believe it... If I believe it, does it make it so?
That's right. I must have left that bag over my head.. the one that helps "if you don't see the monster then it doesn't see you either". Still never figured out how to get out of the room like that however.
I think the Improbables are occurring more and more likely.. "pro-robblab-blee".. (Mine's a 3 speed motor..)
