O to be an Arabian Babbler


"Babblers dance and take baths together, offer themselves gifts, clean themselves, and sometimes enter into conflict with each other for the privilege of helping another babbler. They may also feed their counterparts. This peculiar behaviour made them a privileged examples for ethological theories concerning altruism among animals."

Kim Jong-Il looking at things

This site called "Kim Jong-Il looking at things" made me laugh for 10 minutes straight, and confirmed to all my absolute insanity.

 { looking at the kitchen cabinet }

{ looking at a radish }

 { Looking at metal }

Talkin' world war III blues


So, a while ago, when Josephine was my beautiful housemate in West End, we'd sit on our front deck and philosophise. Haha. La di da.

We came up with our own theory of communication, and the different levels.  The friends you're closest with are at level 5, while some friends you're really stuck at level 3 with.  (Hah, well, honestly, the reason I'm posting this here to clear up my dashboard of random stuff!)

levels      of       communication
  1. Intoxicated (base level)
  2. Frivolities (the weather etc)
  3. Circumstantial (domestic, study)
  4. Decisions
  5. Ideas

Matter over mind


"Be who you are, and say what you feel, because those that mind don’t matter and those that matter don’t mind."

 -Dr. Seuss
