I have affection for my Wii avatar. He looks so cute playing disc golf. I want him to do well. Maybe because Animation is one of my skills, or just since i have draw myself so often, He feels like me! I see him in his cute virtual world. I admire the skill and craft in making the game environment so frelling cute! I like watching him play his game and routing for him. His game is pretty erratic. First hole is a triple bogey and next is a hole in One. It’s like he can easily win the game if he just pay attention. I keep praising him on his increasingly good aim. He gets annoyed with himself for not getting it in the glowing moving column of color that is the “hole.” He thinks he should have made it a throw or two before but still makes a par. That’s why i think he is tripping himself up. It’s easier to accept failure than it is to accept success. I blame my Lutheran upbringing. The whole life is hard and then you die attitude of the Missouri Sinai. I may have gotten the point wrong, I did fall asleep allot during church. But it was also part of a Simpson Joke. Homer to disheartened children, “kids you gave it your best and failed miserably, the lesson is don’t try.” So maybe it is bigger than the church, it’s in society at large. But going on, there is a saying that you can learn more about a person by playing a game with them than you can by a thousand conversations. That being said, I just gave away to the great internet big brother the secret to my soul. It feels good to be so open, to express myself and maybe be heard.. The fear/reality is that this information will be databased and sold to anyone paying the collector enough cash to satisfy them. By private company or governments anything you do on line will be collected and eventually sifted through and Sold. 10 years ago I thought the biggest election question of 2000 was Privacy Rights. But so few seemed to care. The first appointed president pushed the fear button and away went our legal right to privacy. After giving corporations a larger amount of control over media outlets, they naturally gave him all your phone records, when he came asking, in the name of security. The democratic congress is still defending this constitutionally illegal action. Maybe that is why I’m more angry at the Democrats than the Republicans. I know they’re Fascists, I was just hoping the Dems weren’t. I knew better. They’re both big business parties. We don’t have a labor party, oh God that would make us communist. But can you blame them for taking industry money? Who do they have to pay to get on TV so you, the voting citizens, can notice the advertisements, I mean political ads. Of course the government created the laws that allow media outlets to exist, they could/should write them so they have to broadcast political DEBATES. That is were the candidates get off the scripts and reveal their intellect and soul. But who would watch them since the media got everyone attention spans down to microseconds. That is why I have to keep jumped along, keep you interested. Congress could even pass a law that you have to be human to fund a politician. No more corporations that have the mentality of a hungry ameba, playing both sides of the congressional isle. Hey you got a choice! Coke or Pepsi. Soft drinks aside, if you’re wise, you know any complex ideological position loses it soul when cramped into catch phrase. The last Commander in Chief preached fear. The Opposite emotion elected the Current guy to office. Hope. But if you have read the Toa de Ching you’d know that hope is as hollow as fear, they are both based on the unreal. Speaking of the unreal, my Wii avatar just shot a hole in One. It does bring about some satisfaction. Bringing what has been envisioned into virtual reality. By the way, Welcome to my blog, hope you enjoy it. The following post will digest and flesh out many of the ideas briefly mentioned above. Hope you will return and read some more. My avatar is heading towards the planes now, time to fly.
