Emcye, “…watched jaws go slack with utter dis-curiosity.” Isn’t that the truth…

And then theres what’s known as the “Kelly Zone”. it’s the 12th dimension. It’s where all the stuff I lose goes. When they find it some scientist is going to be gifted a wealth of cool stuff. Some cameras, an ipod or two… some super cool leather jackets. And at least four thousand colored burts bees lip sticks.

Jim Has Buckaroo Banzai travelled through all 11 do you think??? :-)

How come no one claims to be Ptolomy in a former life? You know, the genius who tried to convince everyone that the earth was indeed, indisputably FLAT. You’d think he would reincarnate, just to apologize. Wonder if we’ll find out more about those eleven dimensions on Wednesday? That’s when they flip the switch on the Haldron. Those crazy scientists are at it again: “The 5 billion Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will smash protons - one of the building blocks of matter - into each other at energies up to seven times greater than any achieved before. In the flashes from the collisions, scientists expect to reproduce conditions that existed during the first billionth of a second after the Big Bang at the dawn of creation.” - Daily Mail Dr Cox said: ‘The Large Hadron Collider is the biggest scientific project since the Apollo astronauts went to the moon, and that’s no exaggeration. ‘It is the most complex machine ever built, and it’s going to take us to a place we’ve never been before.” So kids, if you wake up on the other side of the galaxy this week - that’s why.

I liked this, “Our future continues to be pretty vague, both as to when and what it will be. What the future imposes on our present existence is not exactly a feeling of depression; it’s rather a sort of seriousness, of detachment, of a broadening, too, of outlook. This feeling, of course, borders on a sort of sadness (the sadness that accompanies every fundamental change); but it leads also to a sort of higher joy … I’d call it `Nostalgia for the Front’. The reasons, I believe, come down to this; the front cannot but attract us because it is, in one way, the extreme boundary between what one is already aware of, and what is still in process of formation. Not only does one see there things that you experience nowhere else, but one also sees emerge from within one an underlying stream of clarity, energy, and freedom that is to be found hardly anywhere else in ordinary life - and the new form that the soul then takes on is that of the individual living the quasi-collective life of all men, fulfilling a function far higher than that of the individual, and becoming fully conscious of this new state. It goes without saying that at the front you no longer look on things in the same way as you do in the rear; if you did, the sights you see and the life you lead would be more than you could bear. This exaltation is accompanied by a certain pain. Nevertheless it is indeed an exaltation. And that’s why one likes the front in spite of everything, and misses it.” (The Making of a Mind, p. 205.)
