| Spider-pig, Spider-pig, does whatever Spider-pig does. Can he swing, from a web? No he can't, he's a pig. Ohhhh, he's a spider-pig. | | |
| Bored at work. Incentives needed. Challenges sought. Iowa is an interesting state. From the witholding of 5 cents per beer can to the medium quality gas being cheaper than regular, the differences from across the river is subtle yet present. Can't write, falling asleep. Time for a shnap. | | |
| Just finished watching Babel. Not feeling much for it even though it's suppose to evoke emotions. It was like a Lost in Translation plus Crash. I liked Lost a lot but hated Crash. I guess thats why it neutralized. Hopefully that's the case, otherwise I'm becoming more and more stoic.

| These case studies remind me of high school. Actually my current living style reminds me of high school. I need to reform. The mean time, I need to do my homework.

| I was trying to recall the earliest memory that I have and I realize it only dates back to when I was 5 years old. Its a vivid memory of myself drawing a truck. Then it appears that from that point on I can remember, chronologically, events that happens after. I have always assume that death is the return to the nothingness of before a person was born. And that nothingness is defined by the later recollection of whether anything happened. This assumption would disapprove my original theory because to be able to recognize whether there is the existence of a memory the person must be alive. "I think therefore I am", to be alive is to exist and only through being alive can a person generate thoughts. Now, the fact that I couldn't remember what happens before I was 5 doesn't mean that I wasn't alive or existed before I was 5. To come to such a conclusion I would have been committing modus tollen. Although I avoided the fallacious conclusion, I am still convince that there is something abnormal about the entire memory process. Then again the older generation of Chinese people doesn't consider a child "alive" until they are 3 years old. Before 3 they have no soul. It may seem ridiculous but why can't 3 years old be the cutoff? What is the cutoff line? When the child is born? When the mother is first conceived? Whatever legally defined abortion deadlines?
