circus maximus

We need the circus maximus back. the UFC is fun, but there are rules. rules, mind you, that keep people alive, and that's ok, but really, i don't watch fighting sports for the human element. i watch it for the blood. and this one is pretty bloody so far.

i don't want to see two guys grappling each other and holding each other in some stupid wrestling embrace. i wanna see two guy go at each other with wooden boards with spikes stuck through them. i think if noone is knocked out or dead in 5 minutes, they should throw axes in the ring. axes with spikes in them. with barbed wire around the spikes. and the axes should be on fire. and the axes should shoot needles. poisonous needles. needles that blow up on impact. and there shoudln't be fences caging them in. there should be wood chippers.

one day they will make me head of programming of all tv channels on basic cable. either that or this post will be evidence in my insanity trial.

prime

37.1 seconds into Paul's flash video and I'm nearly at my limit for workable pictures of Optimus Prime. Every 5 seconds of this thing is taking an hour. It ridiculous. No wonder those guys at JibJab have a whole team of animators.

Also, it occurred to me today that every day should be spent in search of something to create or do that will secure your place in history and legend, be it through fame or power or wealth or heroic (or infamous) deeds, at least for those around you, or you will never be remembered for anything and forgotten soon after you die. You will leave no mark on the universe and only maggots and unresolved debt will mark your passing. Today I worked on a flash video. Tomorrow I will finish this flash video and work more on our company website(s). Sunday is still up in the air, so we'll see what comes across my desk.

lost moments of genius, part 1

Sometimes I forget how smart I am, and out of the blue am reminded of my own mad genius. I rediscovered that little gem mined from my brain via a random google search. Pity I did not have the chance to follow up on that idea. Maybe i'll find time to take it up again soon.
