I will, thanks again, your last year linkage turned out to be a really
kewl youtube thing, going so far to make a second Hitler vs Vader video.

I am actually kinda excited to watch In Time.
(on purpose not looking up anything about that, but still, times and
seasons, so i downloaded it, yet, apparantly i lack some tiny bit of
incentive)

Well, it was quite versatile.
Both the futuristic clean and dirty next to each other, some meta bits
about immortality, basic greed, and a bonny and clyde lovestory, with a
happy ending.

I also remember why i did not see it in the first place, cos of Justin
Timberlake, but i guess he was kinda good in this flick.

So thanks again, can hardly wait for next years linkage ;)

### - seems like just another good yarn, that is until one realises it's
actually about the present and not about the future at all, 'time' being the
currency nicely revealing how everyone is being unfairly bought and paid for
in the present, "many dying (and/or paying the price) just so that the few (1
percent) can live" when there's actually plenty-enough for everyone to live a
full life etc etc + glad you enjoyed it...

plus while you're in the mood why wait for next year, which or may not
arguably ever occur anyway (i.e. the very 'concept' of 'the future' is a lie,
and coz all that only ever truly exists is always 'now' and 'today')

i.e. while you are in the mood + you may have already seen this one (a
genuinely hilarious but also totally profound movie lol:), to which i'll
give you the (hidden) key... e.g. a story about a couple of average poor
fools doing their 'life-sentence' and just trying to get-by and avoid
trouble like everyone else has to + the cruelty of the harsh + corrupt system
that has them (and everyone else) imprisoned for life, exploited as slaves
etc, which is exactly where they would have stayed had it not been for
some nutter who was mad (+ desperate) enough to actually try to escape (lol:)
who drags them into it against their will, when they realise they can't go
back "welcome aboard" says the nutter:)

to escape doesn't seem possible, or even feasible but dragged
into it they are, robert de nero and sean penn being our 2 very unlikely +
unwilling heroes... who then find they have no other choice but to attempt to
'cross the border' to freedom to escape injustice, very few of which ever
succeed (or actually go that far) when the bright lights of wallyworld always
holds the more obvious attraction, but they've been kinda forced into it...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrR1pC-dk1k (couldn't find a reliable torrent
for this but here it is on youtube albeit in 11 parts, poor quality
unfortunately + better to maybe find a better copy or miss most of the subtle
expressions/telepathy, still nice tho + definitely worth seeing more than once
anyway, enjoy :)

You use the search, then click on the translate button next to the
search result for the torrent, and at that page you download the magnet
link.

The links i presented might have some personalization google info, so
perhaps would not work for someone else.

stranger too. (no comment needed, meta joke)

(out of the mouths of babes and sucklings and all that:) gets everyone's full
attention first and then turns the last page (hahaha!!!) and can't read them
the next bit lol coz it's something about a rifle so he's forced to ad-lib the
rest, which is actually quite profound + totally true:)

Yup, occasion driving a moment.

EPIC discussion interactions of right now:

Richard Dawkins

Versus

Neil deGrasse Tyson

Astrology angle;
Aries aries, for britain richard, versus libra gemini, for neil american.
(there is far moar hidden there, like when a libra gets energized, and
when an aries get's ubergetrubt, but there is far moar aswell)

So fire fire versus air air.

Who get's the most speaking time ?
(hint, fire starts, but air talks)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RExQFZzHXQ&feature=related

(related left on purpose, cos medium as the massage was present, and so
honouring the Large Hardon Collider ftw)

Not quite a movie, but most definately on topic in alt.magick

Do enjoy the entire thing, and tells me what you thinkz of that bit.

Take a cup of water from the ocean, examine it, and declare there are no
such things as whales.

That is akin to claiming there is no life other than on earth.

### - i watched it, smile, plus it's complicated coz these days i tend to view
'all' such rational argument and conclusion as being similar to that of a
blind man avidly searching around in a dark room looking for a black cat...
that ultimately just isn't there!:)

iow, having 'invented' the premises ourselves, we then take for granted that
exploring 'outside' of those premises is verboten (or just plain wrong) and
consequently then argue and explore/probe strictly + absolutely contextually
'within' those very same agreed premises and boundaries and expect to arrive
at some kind of revealing 'truth' when in fact all we're actually achieving is
pushing and expanding the limits of those very same premises that we started
off with in the first place while inadvertently + unknown to us, manipulating
our own man-made perception of the whole...

something that was once done exclusively via religion wherein we derived a
religious view of the world that all made a kind of sense as long as everyone
went along with it, plus ditto the rational science and logic of today which
perforce affords us another view entirely, one that's even more convincing and
imprisoning than religion ever was..,

and yet, if we were to stand back just a little from our total obsession with
(and belief in) interpretationally-based projected views we struggled +
learned to relate to, we'd immediately realise that science and religion, even
though they 'appear' to be worlds apart from each other, are in fact only the
two sides of the same one coin with no actual division between them, we look
for 'answers' in a certain place and find certain + strictly related answers
merely depending on the view one adopts at the time, and then we get really
excited thinking we're achieving great things when in fact nothing is actually
happening except inside of our own heads which we then project upon the world
and call it reality...

that ultimately, because of humanity's total attachment to 'language'
(something he himself invented in the first place) we've only ended up pushing
the bounds of said language to include more and more of what we can perceive
via language itself, never once stopping to consider that maybe we might all
be just barking up the wrong tree (or just plain barking heh:) as we wilfully
+ stubbornly continue to process absolutely everything we can get our grubby
little mitts on into and via said language, never realising that all we're
actually doing is distorting everything to suit our very own +
contrived/invented concept of the way we've come to think things 'should' or
'ought' to be...

iow, we deliberately process our experiences to fit a preconceived +
completely contrived mould, a mould that we ourselves invented + then have
learned to totally disregard anything to the contrary... whereas i personally
would tend to go along with old buddha, who probably sat there watching all
these chimps and totally obsessed + self-absorbed idiots all climbing and
tumbling + falling all over themselves, trying themselves up in knots... for
nothing basically, other than all the stress such behaviour creates for
themselves... and said/explained to them... look, you just don't have to do
it!!!

views views views, all piled one upon the other till life, it appears, is all
about which 'view' one should or shouldn't adopt, and as a consequence we've
created endless 'virtual' realities that we then 'inhabit' as though totally
real in a far ranging spectrum that goes from religion to science, never once
considering that we just don't absolutely 'have' to do it!

consequently, there's probably always been a small bunch of people wandering
around whose 'illusions' have been somehow broken (dis-illusioned, literally!)
who because they couldn't BE repaired or made to function again the way they
'used' to function (properly broken as opposed to only slightly damaged,
unrepairable!) but who didn't die (or just kill themselves because of their
loss) but chose to continue living ( perforce that would have a be a
'conscious' choice from then on in everything as opposed to merely the
ingrained + taken for granted default values of the otherwise still totally
engrossed masses) have thus been forced to then experience the world in a
somewhat completely different manner, one necessarily 'without' the backup of
language (reason itself is a language, a whole way of structured 'thinking'
and 'conceptualising' that follows all its own self-created rules) to the
point that their daily 'experience' cannot now be 'put' into words nor
described nor contained therein, basically because for them their experience
only 'began' when they somehow 'exceeded' the bounds of said language-based
interpretational views of life, the universe, and everything in the first
place!

i.e. one lives and somehow persists, but all the rules are off, there's no
more 'game', there's no more 'play', the actor has escaped from within the
bounds of the written script and can go around doing his 'own' productions,
that is 'if' he can be bothered to 'do' them i mean hehehe (chances are most
people just piss-off under those circumstances and are never ever heard from
again, people like arthur rimbaud for example... others tho stick around,
perhaps to tend the eggs that 'sometimes' crack and hatch out into butterflies
or flutter-bys, or whatever;)

dorking of course is a nut hehehe, a very nice + rational nut for sure, but
still an unhatched egg for all that, and thus almost completely crazy (it's
not really his fault you understand, it's just the way he was brought up and
educated/programmed in a very 'particular' way, plus it's unlikely now that
he'll ever escape his fate, which after all is the same fate as the vast
majority of mankind, he having now gone so far down that particular road that
if you let him out now all you'd probably get as a result is some very badly
scrambled egg (poor fucker really, it really is a sad 'and' beautiful world
sometimes, n'est pa?:)

and, well i dunno if all that actually covers your question or not, but the
well has just suddenly run dry and i'm done, so it must be in there somewhere
hehe + good luck finding it:)
