1984

Well, I finished reading 1984. I was originally hesitant in reading this book, but after I started reading I realized it is quite different than what I had expected. This is a book about a future where the world is basically in a communist state, and if you speak out against the government you basically disappear. You're tortured, beaten, and mentally abused. This book actually pissed me off! Not because it was a shitty story, but because the stupidity of the whole situation that all these people are in. As many have said; this story is a warning of what things could become. I'm sure in some places it might already be like that or close to it. But I think the one thing people have to realize is that we have the power to change! There is only one constant in this world and it's change.

The Dam Drum

Neat little drum/drone machine. Too bad there's none left!

Net Generation

Just finished reading "Grown Up Digital" by Don Tapscott. Excellent book. If I were to suggest one book to read about our generation this one is it.

Inspiration:

So, we all live in this world. And, we are all humans. Yet, we still seem to want to destroy eachother. People seem to think it's ok and you wonder why. It's in the news, in movies, it's on the net, governments are obssessed with it. If you see enough of it you become desensitized to it. It becomes normal. But is violence neccessary? We have a right to defend ourselves... whether that's on a small scale... somebody attacks you, or on the large scale, defending your country from invaders or terrorists. But the question is... How far do we take it? Do we have to destroy someone? or can we incapacitate them so that they can never attack us again? The next question is... are we even capable of incapacitating them to that point? Is it possible? Or, is it that if we can't incapacitate... then we have to take their life?


Peace, light and love,
