Wiki Wandering

You soothe my soul and I stop searching. When I get lost in the rhythm everything stops hurting.- Sophie B. Hawkins, Don't Stop Swaying

Here's a little sampling of my day. It started when I was double checking the spelling of the word mediocrity via Google. Looking down the list of results I noticed mediocrity principle, which I never had heard of before. So I check it out. I dig it and notice that at the bottom is a link to the anthropic principle . Honestly, its interesting, but I don't think I completely understand it. So I make a mental note to check into it more, even though the creationists have co-oped part of it of their official "Agenda of Ignorance". Anyway, all of this reminds me of a book I read a few years back called The Holographic Universe so I check it out on wiki as well. It redirects me to a page called holographic paradigm . Now, while I won't go on record as saying I believe this theory, I will say that's fantastically fun to read. Anyway, holographic paradigm has a link to The Universe as a Hologram, a quick web article by the author of the book. The same page had an article on titled The Biophotonic Quantum Holographic Matrix in which I find a reference to Ganesh Particles which I had also never heard of before. With good reason, as another Google search takes me to Dan Burisch & The Ganesh Particle: A Blockbuster and I complete my journey from hard science, to loony science. (Because I doubt anyone will check at that last link, or any of them for that matter, the last website talks about 2 powerful clandestine conspiracies, 3 alien races, an extinction level event, and a cure for aging).

Everyone's taking everything they can. - Zero 7, In the Waiting Line

This weekend was so zany the only way that I can present it to you in all of it's glory, my dear reader, is to present it in a Mad Lib. Goda!


Friday after work I went to __business name__ and bought a __noun__ to give to __proper noun__for their __event(1)__. While there I encountered a __type of performer/politician__ memorizing a group of __animal__ with his __type of logical fallacy__. Then I got a text from __proper noun__ saying that the __event(1)__ was about to start. I tried to text back, but my __expletive__ phone is acting like a piece of __expletive__. "__four letter word starting with the letter "f"__!" I said very loudly. A young __noun__ looked at me in __emotion__. "__verb__ me." I said to her. I went back to the __building__ where the __event(1)__ was taking place. We discussed what we wanted to watch. After __number __increment of time__ passed we settled on __horror movie that rhymes with "The Mudge"__. As the night passed we watched __type of entertainment__ and I drank __alcoholic beverage__ and some __other alcoholic beverage__. Meanwhile __proper noun__ and __other proper noun drank __alcoholic beverage__, and __other alcoholic beverage__, and __other alcoholic beverage__, with some __other alcoholic beverage__, and a lot of __other alcoholic beverage__, topped it off with __other alcoholic beverage__, and a chaser of __other alcoholic beverage__. I think I killed a __type of transient__.
