I saw the latest Star Trek and it is a bit distracting …

The Beauty of Lava.

And finally, peaceful blogging

I like the first one the most, it reminds me of Avatar where all four elements meet

The fast-moving lava is amazing.

“Dewey-Hagborg […] extracts DNA from each piece of evidence she collects and enters this data into a computer program, which churns out a model of the face of the person who left the hair, fingernail, cigarette or gum behind. […] From those facial models, she then produces actual sculptures using a 3D printer.”

Reminds me a tiny bit of that weird moment in “Birth of a Nation” when the killer is revealed based on the image burned on the victim’s eyeball.

We are kind of heading in that direction. Some apartment complexes (like mine) are requiring tenants to register a sample of their doggie’s DNA with the front office so that any unexpected “gifts” can be traced back.

I don't get why people always say they should have been born in the 960s.

I don't get why people always say they should have been born in the 960s.:

The technology was less-developed, the fashion was weird, there was a lot of societal upheaval and the British still had a lot of invading to do.

Resolved: I’m going to think about Ben Stein and make light computations in my head any time I am speaking or performing in front of people and the train of my thought starts going off the rails.

Mon, 08 Apr 2013 00:35:29 -0400

“I stumble down the hill, filled with excitement. I climb into my barely functioning satire of a car, a 2029 Colbert Electra, and drive north. My journey takes me through the ominous Aziz Ansari Mountains and then deep into the wilds of Dane Cook National Forest. I drive for hours and stop near a bronze statue of Louis C.K. mounted on a steed. I turn off the car, which makes an automated quip about the Republican Party, and then I run into the woods. In the middle of a clearing, I drop to my knees and begin scraping at the dirt with my bare hands. I dig through soil and stone, frantically, looking for small traces of iron. I want to make a simple tool and, with it, a new world. But then it happens. I become self-conscious. I imagine what I must look like, crawling in the dirt, and I wonder if it’s funny. I fumble for my iPhone 600 and take a photo of myself digging. With one touch of an app, an eye patch, cutlass, and pirate hat are instantly added to my photo. Suddenly, I am Redbeard, digging for lost treasure. This is a funny Twitpic, I think to myself as I walk back to my car. All is lost.”
