Why Humans Cannot Be Happy with What They Need
Some folks have often pondered why can’t people be happy with what they need? They just go after what they want, even when it hurts the little guy. Some folks also saw why do we need 20 companies all with the exact same product? Still they go on to say that commerce is a giant paper chase and capitalism is a trap, which started on the day the first coin was stamped.
Night Over the Mekong

Toll Roads, They Should Be Paying Us
Now let me get this straight? You want me to drive on a road with potholes that ruin my car and pay you for the privilege? Come again? Let us dissect this logic for a moment shall we? You pay money to drive on screwed up roads to get near where you want to be while the roads and bumps break your car and your equipment and then you wait in line for a chance to pay them for such a wonderful service? Please, Thomas Paine help me out here, because from where I am parked on this so called ...
Moiromma: Iazrak #22
Little is known of this person, but I shall tell you what is known of him. Underneath Moiromma’s four hundred feet of ice is a dead planet, much like Earth’s moon; similar to a big snowball in the heavens, might be a better description of Moiromma. But, as I was about to say, underneath this ball of ice and snow was at one time, seas and rivers beautify flows of water and flowers everywhere, now tunnels, caverns and sink holes. At one time this planet was alive and beautiful, one of the ...

The Catacombs of Cibara
The Catacombs of Cibara Part I The Forbidden Planet The planet Cibara is just beyond the Asteroid Moon Ice Cap, which is which orbits the cold planet called Moiromma, just beyond our solar system—if one is to call Pluto, the last planet within our solar system. Malsi, High Priest of Cibara In the dreadful passages which one would scarcely choose to walk alone in, much less, for long periods at a time, dwells the catacomb of Cibara. Unseen by other species—other ...
Barrow, Alaska
The Hotel and Clerk It was a brisk morning in Barrow Alaska, when I first arrived [June, l996] the Chuck chi Sea was close to the Hotel, ‘Top of the World,’ hotel if I remember right; and you could see snow on the frozen waves of ice from a far distance with the naked eye, but I had brought along my binoculars nonetheless—and that didn’t take away from the beauty of the endless view of the frozen sea, while the ‘Top of the World Hotel,’ the one I was staying at, guarded its ...
Do You Even Realize What You're Promoting?!
Now, I’m a firm believer in knowing what you’re getting yourself into. It’s a universal fact of life. I’ve heard nasty stories of people getting into allsorts of bother, all because they didn’t know what they were getting into. Blindly signing contracts, buying dud gear, giving in to the suspicious salesman who “reduces” the price just for today, just for you – these are all examples of looking over the chasm to the opposite cliff edge…and walking.
Insulin Resistance And Complex Carbohydrates
One of the biggest mistakes that weight loss failures make is cutting out carbs altogether. An example of this flawed ideology is the Atkins diet. Clinical studies have proven that the low-carb, high fat diet has a negative impact on the health of your heart and blood.

No doubt that millions of persons begin their journey rushing through the newspapers to see the daily horoscope. We want the horoscope to tell us positive things will happen in the next 24 hours, like how will somebody look at us nicely, how fast we will be rich, or our love compatibility.

Moiromma, Cibara & Ice Cap
1. The Land of Moiromma Part I There’s an old saying that’s quite true: ‘If there’s a will, there’s a way,’ alas, Make sure you make room for a way back though. Moiromma—and The Asteroid-moon Ice Cap Map of Moiromma The storm broke, it had hurled the rumbling sounds of an arctic snowfall ten feet mounds all around the ice-castle, and in the village that surrounded the castle, called, Moira. The snow storm covered an area of some five-hundred miles. The ...
King Moir I of Planet Moiromma
When Moiromma was young and fertile, it was a wonder to its inhabitants; no other planet other than earth could fall into its shadow of beauty. The summers were sunny and the springs were flowery, and the falls were colorful and the winters were short lived and filled with vistas for the eye to behold. These things were all present when King Moir I, came to this planet with his eight brothers; now eons ago of course. Long before it turned into an ice sheet and disc of tundra, with arctic ...
The Paper Pickers of Buenos Aires
I arrived in Buenos Aries four days ago and my first reaction to the paper pickers, as I call them now, was ‘b…ee careful ….—‘It was the same reaction a women on an elevator in our hotel, who had just arrived said she had; our hotel was right off the largest street in the world called ‘9th of-July Street.’ An independence thing, from what I was told. I like the obelisk, I told my wife, and you could see it from our window on the 9th floor.

Sources for Free Tattoo Ideas and Tattoo Design Ideas
Have you been wanting to get a tattoo but don't have an exact idea or not sure what you want? Tattoos are so popular and there are so many ideas but many of us feel stuck at times on the exact tattoo we want to get. For me I often feel stuck when I think of how permanent a tattoo is. I see a lot of cool designs that I like at the time but when I start thinking about the having it permanently done I start to change my mind and look for something else.
Johannes' Strange Acquaintance
[Moiromma; part I] “I think I will be dead next week if the nurse is correct on her examination.” That said it brings to light a man I met once at a joint called, ‘The Due Drop Inn,’ a harmless dive full of harmless people, madly packed with drunks. The owner lived above the bar, had quite the library for a barkeep—. Thus, that was all he ever wanted out of life was to drink and read, and that is why he owned a bar I suppose, and lived above it; he had all his books, on top of ...
