Boy it's been an interesting trip. . . Managed to take care of very little that I'd aimed for with the goodbyes, but atleast my great great grandparents arent going anywhere. I'm typing this sitting in my step-dad's office in the humid afternoons that pre-summer texas has to offer. My computer, although functional is inoperable on the network, whether there is an external hardware problem or the fact that it's overrun by virii, that POS isnt getting on the network any time soon, so most if not all lines of communication to me have been cut, but oh well. Thats life, and it could be alot worse than mere isolation. Naturally, however I hope to soon be functional to the point where i can talk to my friends all the time, not just calling those whose numbers I possess and using the AIM java client at awkward hours into the night. If any of you have anything to contribute, I can be reached at Pointy@Musician.org, I'll probaby not read it within a weeks time of sending it, but that's not a concious decision, those of you who know me [hopefully] already know that.
I'm going to endeavour to write long posts so that I might evade the longing to post every 5 minutes, and so that everyone will notice the groovy backround. And since I promised here's some info about Odin
(the bulk of the following paragraph is Pasted or paraphrased web content)
In norse mythology, Odin is the supreme god. His role, like many of the Norse pantheon, is complex: he is both god of wisdom and war, roles not necessarily conceived of as being mutually sympathetic in contemporary society, a compulsive seeker of wisdom, consumed by his passion for knowledge, to the extent that he sacrificed one eye to grant him sight of all worlds. Odin's love for wisdom was boundless, he impaled himself on his spear, gungnir, and hung himself from the magic tree Yggdrasil in order to invent language, he also worked on a farm in order to betray the keepers of the mead which he used to invent poetry. Odin is basically the God of all that which is powerful to mankind. He is the god of death, and in this way, the life giver. He is god of war, and so the peace maker. Odin's followers wore the Valknut when they had both been educated of his ideals, then educated that without him these ideals wouldnt exist. He is the one god I have found to represent the contradictory principles found in the universe that are similar only to the Yin Yang symbol brought about by the Han Synthesis back in the days when taoism was young people could get killed for listening to confusious.
That's about it for this post, simply because when I'm of the workstation it no longer works, and what good is a business run by a moody musician
