The concept of free software development is straightforward: software is a form of knowledge and all knowledge should be shared to benefit all people at all times. Unlike those people embracing the moving target concept euphemistically known as intellectual property, people advocating free software development believe that software is knowledge and not property. The concept of property belongs in the realm of tangibles and scarce resources, not intangibles. Like any monopoly, the concept of regulating and protecting knowledge to the point of absurdities creates an environment of slavery rather than mutually beneficial relationships. Converting knowledge into a tangible resource through the use of legal fictions is to create artificial scarcity where no scarcity previously existed. I certainly have benefited in various ways from the concept of freely and voluntarily sharing knowledge. Therefore this section of my web site is my way of participating in a meaningful and reciprocating manner. Here are some How-Tos that hopefully some people find useful.

mercury retrograde: 2009-January 11-February 1
This email is my scientific proof.
See prior to tonight, i have believed in the powers of mercury `retrograde, but mostly blaming them on my own dumb-(birthday)-luck.. (me: Gemini with Virgo Rising: see ref. 2)
and hippiebackground. and stuff ive been told, read etc.
( im an easy believer)
My Mercury Retrorgrade experiences this round:
Januarry 11th:
macbook pro takes a crap: screen becomes unusable
January 19th:
Iphone stops working.. untouched.. just stops.
.Mercury Retrorgrade is now scientifically proven in my labs, as atime for hybernation, for me.
After above email, coupled with my own experiences.
Together these 2 unforeseen events during said period, are conclusions supporting said theory…
Science.not hippieshit.
ref 2:.Mercury Retrorgrade : Gemini and Virgo are signs ruled by Mercury, so if you are one of those born during those months, you will be complaining especially loudly.
Although i am over-laden with ism’s.and issues(pass the tissues)..
This particular -ism, i do not fall prey to…but it resonated with me because i recognize it as a common affliction of many around me( who shall remain anonymous) -
If you’ve ever overeaten at an all-you-can-eat buffet just because you wanted to get what you paid for or nearly died of boredom at a terrible movie because you were compelled to “get your money’s” worth, then you’re familiar with The Sunk Cost Fallacy.
Basically,
. the sunk cost fallacy occurs when you make a decision based on the time and resources you’ve already committed and not on what would be the best way to spend your remaining time and energy. The sunk cost fallacy is usually applied to economics, but it can also pop up when you’re ……

to become a fucking awesome person that is super rich in every aspect of the term rich?
well, first lets look at the assininity of timepassers that hold us locked outside of the great world of plenty…how manytimes a day do you find yourslef pondering ~
“what do you call male lady bugs?” or ” why do people always give me the dumbest questions for my blog?”~far far too manytimes, im sure.
So, stop it. right now.
Sure, there may be answers to these questions..and you may even be the one to find them; but i can promise you , they aren’t getting you anywhere near where you want to be.
So , again, i reiterate:stop it.
From now on, everytime these aimless queries comeup, grab hold of your genius brain, and pull a switch aroo on them: turn them into signposts that you are nowhere you want to be and its time to do something more productive and relevant towards gettin rich or famous . Ask not “what of the male ladybug” but “what of me and my unrealized awesomeness?”
NOW:hurry and go forth and Propel yourself into the glory and kingdom that all the rich dudes live in.
ps: i wrote this to myownself. it’s a reminder , so to speak…as in when im finding myself editing old posts …waxing poetic over days goneby..

That would be awesome. like the aHa video. how rad. m theory? 11th dimension..well i think this is the twelth.
certain songs come with not just feelings ands landsacapes in my minds eye; but whole universes with dogs and houses and familys and streetlights and alot of other stuff.
