“As you can see, there is a statistically significant inverse relationship between pirates and global temperature.” Check out this open letter to the Kansas School Board. The data is compelling, and the potential PR strategy is sublime… 😉
Alien Intelligent Design is a growing movement (let’s call it AID). The FSM says Ramen.
{side note: I noticed that today, mid 2005, the 100,000th visitor viewed my flickr home page. I suspect most of them are aliens, but they are most welcome.}
Help the global environment, save a pirate!
What they don´t say here is, however, in which considerable amount today´s pirates contribute to the Global Average Temperature increase. In comparison to their cold antecesors, that is. Today they are less, but they are hot! Yarrr!
I admit I am talking from my own experience. There is only one pirate for me, I can´t tell for the other 16.
P-) <— this is my pirate with his eye patch
I won´t say anything about the ‘AID’… yet. All this info altogether connected has surpassed me.

My Dear Genius Jurvetson,
1. The more you attempt to evade Cosmology and Ontology, the more your destiny becomes clear. You are not a Technologist…you are a Philosopher! Give in to your destiny, Aquinas.
2. Your graph ingeniously proves two of my theories:
(a) the Noodly Almightly will always provide manna when needed
(b) when the Sun’s entropy eventually plunges the Earth into total darkness, it is not Absolute Kelvin we humans shall fear…it’ll be the Pirates!
Your Jolly,
Roger
Kelvin would represent the worst pirate pest in the history of the planet. (Zero was -270ºC or something, right?)
Excellently put.
Hopefully we won´t survive the cold, firstly.
And I agree, J, your friend Roger is very astute. Very very. And perceptive. He knows you quite well, doesn´t he?
Pleased to meet you Roger!
And talking Destiny, here there is another person who knows you, too, and he is also advising the same.
excuse me gentlemen… Is sir astute Roger whether related to… Wildwood Hotels?
or Victor?
Anyway, nice neon -way better than crossed bones and that obsolete stuff-.
Indeed.
Despite my very own belief (which I decided to let it be a big "?" regardless who may be right or wrong about it) I guess it is a great thing to be open-minded enough to understand that creationism, evolutionism, flyingspagetthimonsterism are theories and as such are a core of believes about a certain subject.
Thus science, literature and religion are ontologically the same. At least at the cognitive level. We discussed this at your blog, Steve.
And since we can´t put the discussion up to any other level than our brain cognitive capabilities, I suggest that common agreement on this, hence some loads of sensible tolerance would be such an improvement for us all, for the world´s peace.
Sorry, this post was meant to be fun I know, but it is unavoidably connected with a crucial issue of our lives as individuals and as community. Thx for the link, James.
Holes In The Sky Journey:
The holes in the sky
Were transfered from the hearts
When consciousness broke
Itself
It scattered into parts
Same made sun wheels
And some made carts
Some thought a lot
Many made social idols
For their darkened hearts
Some split away to
Study stars
Some studied metals
And made the race of cars
But still we diced
And chopped the heart
Sliced our primal consciousness
Apart
Some made religion an easy ink
To tale themselves
So not to think
They axed on science in a war
And flattened more consciousness
To the floor…
The Original Child’s
First Law :
Empathic eyes.
The Second Law of parents :
Break it down with lies
The Third Law of them :
Disguise it all again
The Fourth Law :
Give it false love and name ,
Attach it into social shame .
The "Fifth State" :
Now you have broke
The eyes from heart ,
And made a glue ,
Of punish you
You see it slide
Inside …
You will travel at the :
"Speed of Ignorance"
And nod while hypnotised
You will not have original self
But only our shared eyes
The 6th state :
Release me on my own
I caught a star still in my
Bone
I caught a piece of light
It was original
Its speed and flight
It woke the wonder in my
Heart
The one they crushed right
From the start
And then I knew , I knew
With pain
I was apart…
It was not alchemy
Standing alone
It was the message I held to
In the child’s aboriginal bone
I came to science and poetry ,
I came home
And found the leads
The other speeds
And blended them
With cure of sad
By boundary of tears and mad :
The speed of thought
The speed of ignorance I was taught
The speed of sound across the ground
The slower speed of hurt
Coupled in the mad and sad
The speed of light
The beautiful
The speed of mend
The speed of kindness and of blend
The speed of story it, in Art
The place
The grace
The speed that’s Galaxy eyed
The speed of pure extended heart..
So holes are visioned by facts
To examine any history
And all its social acts
Whether in the air
Or cultures that make each child
Despair……
This was a good and thought provoking picture.. thanks it made me write the poem and think and feel a lot ..
update: the FSM made the NYT today….
And Intelligent Falling was in the Onion earlier in the month….
Something smells fishy…
From your link above:
"Things fall not because they are acted upon by some gravitational force, but because a higher intelligence, ‘God’ if you will, is pushing them down," said Gabriel Burdett, who holds degrees in education, applied Scripture, and physics from Oral Roberts University.
Nice! =) I still abide Newton in this case, tho.
Ha! By his Noodliness, I resemble that remark…
I’d prefer to look more like Adam in the "touched by noodle appendance" painting, of course…
Hey, I never been back to you on this about… "Steveism"?… I found the song SUPER! and the project even more super!
P-)
There´s hope that we may enjoy the pirates around increasingly and for a long time… Kinky has the solution: Global Cooling
