and so this is the play-by-play but you don't know me, shut up boy, shut up boy, shut up shut up shut up. see there is nothing wrong with you. there is nothing wrong in the ceiling that is breaking open and the rain's coming in and the carpet's soaked and we're standing in the mud by the mattress wondering what hurricane this is, the sound of thunder is nothing compared to your yelling in silence with that guilty pause, and we both know this was a door that shouldn't have been opened, or that this foundation was sinking sand, but why, every time, and they'll say, politely or otherwise, handing you a mirror, look-look at that foundation on your face you fake big charlatan. You think you could get away with it. And I'll be honest with you. I thought I could. I thought once you saw beyond me you'd see me and eventually there would be an acceptance, but instead when the girl washes her face in the shower and you see her without her foundation, you realize there is no foundation, and you realize that this is not the girl you want to wake up to every morning, and these are my fears and tears. And you are seeing me at my worst and at my best and you think, and you know, that what is best is what is false, and what is worst is what is real, and that the reality is always going to pale and be the cause of much discomfort. so i'm sorry i can't be the illusion. but maybe that wasn't it. maybe i should just listen and open my ears to the honeybees who zing-zing in the ding-dong-slappy-song blue-bell ski, sledding to the beat of the jukebox that you hold the coins to. and the grapes of wrath are running down my face now, tasting sweet and heady, and and and and you you you you are figuring it out, you are trying to put the pieces together and see what this girl is, trying to diagnose me with your handbooks DSM the VIIIth, Dr. Sado-Masochism the VIIIth, you know, great-great-great-great-great-great-grandson of the original Key to the Loony Bin. But stay strong. You must always stay strong. That's what they never taught in school. |

See in the Agricultural revolution => excess of food. Industrial revolution => excess of manufactured goods, and Information revolution => excess of information. I think that there'll be an inevitable backlash and people will go on information crash diets -- like this Ivy League college professor who made a blog about going for a year avoiding reading or learning any news. |

The Internet Revolution has also changed the balance of influence/power. It is the only form of Media cultural transmission that is in the hands of the masses. However, I predict that, as has been the fate of all sorts of revolutions that attempted to even out inequalities, eventually the power and influence on the Internet will be consolidated in the hands of an elite few. We are transitioning out of the Wild West, Gold Rush days, into a regulated and monetized system. The Internet is already heavily controlled in many countries. In China sites such as Youtube, Flickr, Twitter, even Google, have been blocked and continue to be restricted. The system will become more corrupted over time by human greed, such as Amazon which deletes negative reviews to generate more sales (if you don’t believe me, Google it yourself). “Free” information is being reclaimed such as the government shut down of BitTorrent sites, Napster, videos being taken off of Youtube due to copyright claims, and scientific articles that come up first in Google Searches have to be paid for. Free information is being replaced by sites such as Yahoo! Answers, over 100 million personal blogs, or discussion boards which offer free opinions, but their veracity is questionable. |

You are The Sun
Happiness, Content, Joy.
The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.
Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.
The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

Free personality analysis from ColorQuiz.com.
Generated on Mon Jun 2 10:58:07 2008.
Your Existing Situation
Acts in an orderly, methodical, and self-contained manner. Needs the sympathetic understanding of someone who will give her recognition and approval.
Your Stress Sources
Suppresses her innate enthusiasm and imaginative nature, for fear that she might be carried away by it only to find herself pursuing some will-o'-the-wisp. Feels she has been misled and abused and has withdrawn to hold herself cautiously aloof from others. Keeps a careful and critical watch to see whether motives towards her are sincere--a watchfulness which easily develops into suspicion and distrust.
Your Restrained Characteristics
Feels trapped in a distressing or uncomfortable situation and seeking some way of gaining relief. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity providing no turmoil or emotional agitation is involved.
Your Desired Objective
Feels she has been unjustly and undeservedly treated and betrayed in her hopes. Disgruntled and in revolt against her existing circumstance which she considers an affront.
Your Actual Problem
Disappointment at the non-fulfillment of her hopes and the fear that to formulate fresh goals will only lead to further setbacks have resulted in considerable anxiety. She tries to escape from this by withdrawing and protecting herself with an attitude of cautious reserve. Moody and depressed.
Your Actual Problem #2
Needs to protect herself against her tendency to be too trusting, as she finds it is liable to be misunderstood or exploited by others. As a result, she adopts a critical and stand-offish attitude, being willing to participate only where she can be assured of sincerity and trustworthiness.
