Ahh...sometimes its nice to just sit back but then again you'll have to go back to the old grind anyway.
But what to talk about today. . .and the topic chosen at random happens to be -- WISHES yay!
So, you're walking along in the desert and you find a magic lamp. You think wow what a lucky break I've just gotten. You rub it. Nothing Happens. You rub it with your shirt. Still nothing happens. You then proceed to accidentally breathe in some sand that has gusted up. You sneeze and thy genie pops out asking for your three wishes. Not the way you thought it worked huh? Well, all lamps happen to be different-ish. Anyway, you proceed to make your first wish. You try and outsmart said Genie by wishing for unlimited wishes, and as you are about to wish this your mouth is closed and a giant roll of paper is in front of you explaining the clause of the "Genie Code" that says one is not aloud to make a wish pertaining to the amount of wishes. So as you stand there befuddled you figure hmm three wishes . . .
Well If I had three wishes I think I'd know what I'd want them to be. Well obviously I'd want the power to Stop Time. #2 Would be the ability to dance insanely well. # 3 would be give everyone the ability to breathe underwater. . . yea. Now you all know my reasons if you read my rant on clocks why the power to stop time is the single best super power ever. So let's move right on the the ability to dance insanely well. Ok, now the reason I wish I could dance really well would be to basically impress everyone. I think its amazing what some people, like the JabbawockeeZ for instance, can do with their bodies. Its positively nuts. It blows my minds how they can make their body do certain things. Also not only would dancing be able to help, well, my dancing ability, but it would also just give me something I can do for countless hours. I mean just any song comes on and BAM I instantly come up with a dance for it. It would also provide my body with the physical fitness it'd need because I mean honestly, I play volleyball and that's not quite enough I'd say. I don't know. I believe the power to dance very well is very underrated as well. I mean you don't really see many people who can just go around and dance very very well to any song ever. As for wish 3, well I think being able to breathe underwater would solve many problems. We can create cities underwater and other types of food would become much more accessible and therefore cheaper. Humans would be able to continue their exponential growth with no carrying capacity in sight. RULERS OF LAND AND SEA. It would also allow much of the earth's oxygen to restore for a while. If not as many people are on the surface more oxygen can be created rather than used since the people underwater will be able to dislodge the Hydrogen atoms from the Oxygen in water in order to respirate.
Sadly these things are only wishes and will most likely not come true. If they were to come true that'd be a bit ridiculous. Awesome, but ridiculous. Wishes are a lot like hopes that less likely to come true. I mean honestly what last birthday wish did you have that came true? and not some crappy wish I mean like a wish that you didn't think would happen but had a chance. Yea, exactly. Not one. Sad, but what are ya gonna do? So we have to realize that what we have now is precious. We should be thankful that we even have a roof over our head. If you don't have a roof over your head right now then I don't know why you spent your money on a computer rather than some type of roof. Anyway, be grateful for today and hope for tomorrow for what we have now and what we will have are two very different things :-)

Rant on clocks
Clocks are quite the magnificent creatures aren't they? I mean they keep the one thing that we hold so dear yet barely ever give any credit to. They weave the fabric that our lives are woven onto and how we base the current activity we are undertaking. They come in many different shapes and sizes and can be of all kinds of designs. They lay the way for our day to take place. Now just think for a moment (of time) what if we had nothing to keep track of this idea we call time? Well this will be the first thing we tackle today
LIFE WITHOUT CLOCKS
Oh sounds so horrid I know alarms wouldn't be made the same. They would be all Flintstones style where the shade is pulled down most of the way exposing a very little amount of sun which shines into a magnifying glass which burns a string which releases a pebble to fall on your noggin. Well not only would string become coveted by all but days would be governed by the sun! We'd start saying things like oh its half past 33 degrees east. OK because everyone can instantly take out an astrolabe to measure where the sun is. For some reason there is just no will to even create the simplest of time dials. Well, it is life without clocks so I mean whoever tried to make something even resembling one would just spontaneously combust. That's just what happens in a world without clocks. period. Anyway after the alarm clocks...people in Alaska would be totally effed over I mean they cant use that kind of contraption when the sun only shows it self 6 months out of the year. People would turn into bears. it's like alright hibernation time see ya in half a year. Some people are freaks and time their days down to the very second. So this is again a down-side for people with OCD. However, I'm sure they'd get their angles perfect so they could possibly adapt. Clocks may not be so bad since we essentially can base our day off that big glowy ball in the sky anyway but something else could be in the brew like....
LIFE IF ONLY ONE PERSON HAD THE POWER TO STOP TIME
Now this is the ONE GREATEST super power of all time (te he time joke). No, but seriously think about it. Ok I'm a 17 year old. I'm under loads of stress all of the time. With the power to stop time will it'd essentially be gone. I could finish all my homework, do all my work for eagle scout, practice playing a sport, fall into to peer pressure and smoke and hate it btw (it wouldn't do anything to you anyway you are in stop time...everything takes TIME to take effect and if time doesn't effect you and you are operating outside of it then you can do anything you want...even gallons upon gallons of heroine...and be totally fine.), I could make world peace, I could make world war, give money to the poor, take it all for myself, or even jizz in the face of someone sitting at home with their dinner who is on the couch watching Seinfeld. It doesn't matter. You could even read every book on the earth and never age a day. Now with this power comes great responsibility (*yay* stolen lines *yay*) but honestly this will corrupt any one person eventually. This is the scary part. One person could go around and inject everyone in the world with AIDS and that'd just be no bueno except for that person and the single super model who doesn't have it and now they have to repopulate the world. The only person's downfall would be if you stop time while you are falling off a cliff you're still screwed because gravity is still in effect. You only operate outside time not the laws of physics idiot! By the way Clockstoppers didn't know what they hell they were doing . . .
BACK TO CLOCKS
Ahh...the beauty of a newly bought clock that just has that special place on your wall. It will become the center of your day. You will reference when to get your morning coffee, cream your morning bagel, do the morning exercise routine, and other morning things. Well you can throw other times in there to, but did you know we reference our lives to time 73% more in the morning than we do throughout the rest of the day?...If you said no then thats ok because I totally just made that up....Ahh here's a philosophical point do clocks control what we do or do we control what clocks do? think about that. Its my own version of "which came first the chicken or the egg?", but anyway clocks are a marvelous thing and aid us in the management of this thing called time. Clocks continue to influence our decisions because if we read 7am sure we may grab that coffee but if its 11pm you may just be saying, "now why the hell is this coffee in my hand, Imma be up all night if drink this crap!" I mean those are my exact words when I find coffee in my hand at 11pm. . .
Now the next time you look at clock and just think, That is one beautiful clock want a more fruitful relationship with it...and no don't be thinking dirty here. I'm just saying organizing your day more thoroughly is all :D
