Paint Guns Are Awesome.

So I've been having fun with the newly purchased paint gun in my home. I painted my bathroom and am now trying to construct an end table. For this I have procured a jigsaw and some nails. A hammer also! Though I have little training in the art of woodcraft... I figure I am genetically engineered to be the best, most amazing, awesome, and potentially lethal wood worker the world has ever known.

Maybe I will even construct some home-made spears for the PDS (Panda Death Squad).

I will soon upload some pictures and show you my works! The end-table has yet to be started. But soon my friends... I will be on the way to creating things with my hands.

One of the many things on my list of stuff to do before I die.

Just ensuring I remember to quote my good friend Neff! He alerted me that a man had his genitalia chewed off by a chimp.

I found the link. So I'm saving it here.

I'm seriously unable to type rationally so I will blog in a few hours about it!

Sorry if I got your name wrong haha! I tried! Flyfishing is my new life goal.

The Human Mind.

So I've got a lot on my 'mind' today. It has been bugging me, the idea that we only consciously use 10% of our brain. I don't see how that's possible. I mean are we not alive simply because our brain tells our hearts to beat? And while we can't tell it to stop, a person can give up and slow their heart rate, and in times of dire stress gain the will to push it on that tiny bit further.

• With all of that considered, is it really saying we don't control the basic functions of control that our brain exhibits on our bodies?

I know what most people will say at first, "Well we don't control it directly." But the truth in my eyes is that is subjective. We control it just as much as you believe you do. What I mean to say is, it's easier to say my thoughts are a slave to my body, then to try and grasp why or how we'd actually control the functions of our body.

• If you're hungry your body tells you. But you can give up food and push yourself to those almost unhealthy limits. So what that makes me wonder is, why do I control my hunger, but not my breathing?

Could I actually manage to skip breathing entirely? Of course without oxygen I'd die, but I'm saying if I hold my breath... Am I not controlling my lungs? If I focus really hard and cause my pulse to slow... Am I not controlling my heart?

I think we use the entirety of our brains, we use each and every part for the daily tasks that our body needs. Perhaps I'd even say we evolved to this point. A cell has to carry out all it's required functions on it's own, perhaps our evolutionary chain has brought us to a point where it's made easier for us.

If that's the case, I wonder in turn if it means that I could evolve or train my brain to not use that part that delves into depression. That sneaks into the sad escape of pain. Other's have managed surely I can too.

So my current test...


I'm going to document my 'feelings' to see how they fluctuate. A simple; Happy, Sad, Neutral scale. I will then focus upon writing it down that night, on not feeling that way. I'll see what methods to try, and I'll attempt them.

What is this test codenamed?

The Moody Mind experiment.

Oh yeah, I am pretty clever.
