The Grass Wars have begun!!!
“Little boxes made of ticky tacky and they all look all the same…”
Spring has sprung, The birds are literally chirping beside me, the sun is beating down, cool fresh breezes of air are rushing over the keyboard with every stroke, women are in their bikinis looking great! And if you live in a neighborhood like mine, the area yard work has started, wifes have begun naggi… asking their husbands to do their landscpaing chores (or they better be prepared to build a dog house cause thats gonna be your home for the remaining weeks). You’ve possibly even started stalking your neighborhood Home Depots, Lowes and local Greenhouses for their nightly deliveries of fertilizer, hay, bed rocks, raping and pillaging their stockpiles of perennials and annuals and we cant forget to replace those pansys that either your “precious pup” or the mangy mutt accross the street ruined!
Either way Tis the season for thosee “Friendly” wars between our neighbors where we try to battle it out and “One Up” each other either with the purchase of fancy ornaments, As-Seen-on-TV gadgets that guarantee those perfect Tomatoes, Cucumbers or Herbal gardens that no matter how lazy you are or attention you give (or lack thereof) you’ll receive fresh, ripe crop for the picking. But God forbid you put out a outdoor fireplace, cause your neighbor gets a pre-ordered one from Germany that runs off the souls off babies, and is sure to be illegal in all of 49 states, well except yours!
But you will never forget that day…. the ONE day that happens when you get the upper hand, the one day where you “One up” and STRIKE FIRST!! I just experienced my day. we just had our grass cut today by the landscaper, the moment they left i walked my dog and noticed the neighbor walking inside their garage with a tape measurer! I kidd you not this ALWAYS happens, yes they measured the difference between our two lawns.
We’re talking about people who have in the past years taken SISSORS a yard stick and went on their hands and knees clipping the out of place grass blades. One day i expected to see Wayne Szalinski-esqe contraption hovering over the lawn.
I sincerely do not care, but i can’t help but pass up a chance is piss a person off especially when it’s this easy.
What’s the best part you ask? My landscaper finished just at 1 o’clock, so anyone who has ever cut grass know it’s stupid and completely niave to cut grass past 12 let alone 1 the sun is too hot….. So yes i get one FULL day of basking in their misery! i know they are twisting and rolling around pissed… because my grass is exactly 1 and a half inches shorter than theirs! (Yes I measured too, lol) I pulled a tiger woods after making the putt at the masters, YES!!!!
(literally shouted it) felt so great i started humming and singing You’re Gonna Fly Now! and Started waving my hands in the air like Rocky after climbing the 72 front steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia!!!
I even sit writing this ON my freshly cut lawn, im in pain and agony because of my serve allergies to pollen, but their misery is the best pain reviler ever!
Ahh the smell of freshly cut grass!

My iPhone expectations/predictions
So I havn’t blogged in a REALLY long time (about two months) so I’ve decided to take a break from coding a fun new project from a slew of PSA (Public Service Applications) my first one is Don’t Forget to Tip! it’s a web app that i decided to make to help you decided what to tip based on the type and quality of service provided!
Right now im laying here taking a break form our Star-Trek-A-thon thinking about the newest iPhone! About 3-4 months ago I wrote a blog post “The iPhone is Dead.” Talking about if the Apple doesn’t make MAJOR improvements to it’s phone well it’s gone and dead, atleast in my eyes. it wouldn’t go away cause there’s Apple Fanboys that will always buy it no matter what, but as far as those folks who purchased it, like myself, because it was and still sorta is the best phone on the market.
However with the recent release of the new HTC Supersonic, Nexus One, HTC HD2, EVO4G are miles ahead of the iPhone, sure i still love the OS… but after toying with a couple android phones… OMG AWESOME! loved it! especially the cloud storage, overall gui aspects (though i love iphone more, it’d be nice to see a combo) and some other cool stuff i just can’t think of at this moment.
With out further a due my list of expectations (in nospecific order):
- Front Facing Camera
- HD Screen
- 10 hour plus battery
- Mulitasking
- 4G
- Faster processor (1-1.5ghz)
- Much more memory (phsyaical, 128 GB?)
- Much more memory (Virtual, 1gb ram)
- Hate me as much as you want…. FLASH!!!! yes i want it!
- Wireless syncing
- a “touchstone” for battery charging.
- a blinking light for notifications (i know it’s too BB-ish, but sometimes i when i sleep and wake up i dont check my phone till i hear a beep which could be until the next notification i get.)
- I loved my JB iPhone because of the spring board opitions, you could swipe the top a menu would appear and you could easily change to Wifi, airplane, brightness, close processes and other nifty features.
- 5MP+ camera plus flash
- the option to cancel sms/mms/emails while they are being sent just in case you regret sending it.
- easier to customize ringtones/message sounds.
- themes!!!!!! again JB’d iPhone had winterboard themes for literally everything!
- centralized email box
- springboard widgets, twitter, facebook, clock (bigger)/weather/date….
- put people in groups on the phone
- ability to send sms,mms,emails to multiple people easier!!!
- better BUILT in gps (i dont wanna pay $500 dollars for it, even $29 is too much when driods get it from free!!!)
*BTW most of these have recently been confirmed via engadet and WSJ
I know some of these are me just asking for too much from current technology but hey im shooting high and expecting low!
Why don’t i just get an Android powered phone now?
Cause i know…. HOPE Apple will rerevolutionize the smart phone industry again.

The Fourth Kind of Bullshit!
I’m really tired of this movies that take advantage of the people. This is why i RARELY go to see a movie, why bother when i can wait for it to come on cable or if i really wanted to be “evil” just download it. I’m tired of Trailers lying, or really movies lying, if you say it’s based on a true story, mother freaking base the damn thing on a true story. Example one, The Fourth Kind - Trailer:
If you’re anykind of believer in the supernatural, aliens, visitors from another world and etcetera; you find a GREAT interest in learning or experiencing stories, first-sightings, or really anything pertaining to the subjects in any form Tv, books, news articles and especially movies!
Once I saw the trailer for this movie i was intrigued a movie about abductions with “so-called” real footage, awesome! Even the actor lied….. ok ok ok, i know thats really the part of a movie actors lying to portray a character or image, feelings, emotions, actions and the such. Hell i know Bruce Willis didnt take down a building full of terrorists like in Die Hard… But he looked freaking awesome doing it.
The difference between Bruce Willis and Milla Jovovich is that She actually said, mind you in a very poorly edited manner, that the things we were about to witness were based on REAL footage, stories, and first sightings and the such.
“I am Actress Milla Jovovich and i will portray Dr. Abigail Tyler” … a psychologist … She warns us that what we are about to see is “very disturbing”, and the director has edited the real footage along side the actors.
i thought this was a very neat idea, we would get to see the actors act out the SAME exactly scene that actually took place during her sessions with her patients.
The movie continued….
…..
By the end of the movie i was completely nauseated by the poorly editing film and the campiness of the “real” footage the montages of real spliced with acting just became gut wrenching to the point that i really wanted to stop the film before i threw up… think of a rollercaoster you’re being forced to ride for an hour and a half…. worse than Cloverfield and thats bad.
At the end Ms. Jovovich graciously said I “had the choice to decide what to believe.” And i decided to do alittle research. it was fake. ALL OF IT WAS FAKE!
Let me get this out there I’m a BIG CONSPIRACY THEORIST! You tell me Baseball ticket stubbs have a tracking device in them, im burning mine. (ok that’s an exaggeration but still)
The FBI has been to Nome, Alaska over 2000 times, but contrary to the movies ending they HAVE come to many conclusions to alot of the disappearances, OVER 250 are alcohol caused, which makes sense, one of my friends spent an ass load of time in Alaska, and there aint to many girls there, so what are you gonna do? get drunk! and drink, and drink, and drink, till you wander off and die cold and abandoned in the wilderness of Alaska. More of the other disappearances are believed to be caused by a Serial Killer to has admitted to over 200 killings, who knows maybe more.
I’m not saying that there are not Aliens, i’m just saying this movie is a piece of malarkey, and it’s really disappointing that you slap the title of “Based on a True Story,” and show “Archival Footage” in any piece of Modern Hollywood Crap and it becomes believable by Americans.
Why lie to your audiences? why say it’s based on a real story…. you know why? because if you advertised this piece of crap as a Sci-Fi Film it wouldn’t have reached the Box Office Numbers it did not even close because the story is horrible, and acting is mediocre because of the extremely poor and shakey editing/camera movements.
You lie because YOU can not come up with an original story of your own so you have to sucker people in to theaters to rape them of an hour and a half of their time and money.
It’s a Shame.
Movie rating 4/10
And Yes I believe!

This is Me
If you believe in Astrology as much as I do i just wanted to share what I am, might be a good preview of what this blog will be about… And i think it’ll be a great topic to blog about in the next coming month.
By the way; What’s you views on astrology? does yours match what you are? is it even close?
This is my birth chart, not only does it give me my astrology of my birth sign but when you put in your location of birth and time it gives you (atleast in my case and my personal beliefs) EXACTLY who you are….
For reference:
sun sign, moon sign and ascendant sign. The sun sign is the most general information in horoscope. However you should make special note of your ascendant (Asc), also called rising sign. Never forget your rising sign as it give you more in-depth information about yourself. The Moon sign is also important as it reflects your emotions and intuitive side of your nature. In the Old Astrology, the Moon sign was a lot more important as the more general Sun sign.
This is myself:
Sun in SagittariusHonest, open and candid, you are always out-going and frank, and allow your thoughts be directed toward the future in faith of a good outcome. On the move, you are a traveler of both the world and the mind - theory, philosophy and the larger purposes in life attract you. You prefer grand themes and big gestures - the large canvas and the big brush. The exploratory drive is very strong in you and you are always shooting for a mark beyond yourself. New possibilities excite you, therefore you are very good at sizing up the current situation and seeing how it can be maximised rather than resisted. By aliging your life activity with something bigger than yourself - some cause or concept - you transform ordinary humdrum existence into something nearer the ideal. Sagittarius is nothing if not direct, candid and to the point, for this sign is always concerned with the absolute truth of the subject at hand. Associated with philosophy, outreach and all things boundless, Sagittarian energy is always welcome in politics as well as social and community endeavors where its basic fairness and expansiveness is helpful.
Sun Conjunct Uranus
Unconventional, independent and drawn to whatever is different and original in life. Hates being tied down with the drudgery of routine, preferring instead to keep options open. Gets involved in causes that go against tradition, revolutions of one kind or another - social or political. Men in particular are eccentric or nonconformist. Computers, electronics and everything ‘new-wave’ appeals.
Sun Semisquare Pluto
Magnificent willpower. Comes on strong and tends to intimidate. Presence and concentration are very forceful. Likes to get down to bare essentials right off. Not afraid of a good confrontation. This intensity puts self and others through a lot of changes. Would be great at research or any work that requires digging, searching, investigating, and getting beneath the surface. Men especially are drawn to or somehow involved in ‘underground’ activities. Sex drive is powerful and needs outlet.
Sun Semisquare Venus
Gentle charm and personal magnetism. There is a natural sense of discrimination and beauty which excels in music, drama, dance or any artistic profession. There is a love of making connections which is welcomed in social scenes of all kinds and gives easy popularity. Fosters aesthetic leanings with an appreciation of cultural matters. Sensual and refined with a tendency to be easy-going and accommodating.
Moon in Cancer is happiest when it has a secure, protective base from which to operate, for Cancer is the sign in which the Moon is most nurturing - good at creating the right conditions for things to grow and flourish. You are also very sensitive, sensing and understanding the moods and feelings of others. This makes you excellent at counseling and nursing. You are quite emotional, and have a natural sense of that which pleases, knowing the mood of the masses. You can be overly protective or protected, but this makes you good at parenting and creating a home - a sense of place and belonging. The pull of the past is strong, and you may take an interest in history, ancestry and genealogy. Stay open and receptive to the environment, for this will serve to help you develop the finely-tuned intuitive ‘knowing’ this Moon sign is noted for.
Moon Trine Venus
Personal charm and popularity. A natural talent in and appreciation of aesthetics. Works easily with music and the arts. A fine appreciation of female energy; excellent raport with women.

Quite able to manage a very active and strong emotional life. Strong spirit with a direct and emotionally forceful manner. Impulsive and energetic, takes the initiative in domestic affairs.

Moon Trine Pluto
Feelings are deep and profound. A natural psychological ability, particularly when it comes to working with the public. Can handle emotional and personal issues (vulnerable areas) very well. People sense this and trust you with sensitive matters, inner worries and questions of personal identity. A real sense of purpose. The theme of re-birth is often prevalent in the life.
Moon Opposite Neptune
Lives in the feelings. Inspiring and magnificently compassionate. Strong idealization of the family, past and traditional matters. Most imaginative when it comes to spirituality and psychology. Entrancing to others with an ability to draw them into a world of imagination and dreams. A high floater and full-blown dreamer, complete with built-in psychic abilities and probably given to visions.
You are fair-minded and above-board, always direct and honest in thought. You are more interested in eternal thoughts and broad landscapes than in minute details. You always manage to get the picture right away. Farsighted, you have a wandering mind that loves to travel and are at home with the bare bones of truth.
Mercury Conjunct Saturn
You are very deliberate when it comes to words, to what you say and think. When you concentrate, you always come up with what is essential to the matter at hand, ignoring all else. You’re anything but “flip,” and your more serious approach to ideas, while welcome when there is mental work to do, may not always be appreciated when others are in more social moods.The sciences are natural for you.
Mercury Square Mars
You are a very forceful speaker and communicate with great enthusiasm. Words just flow out and are always followed by an emotional impact that brings them home to your listeners. You have no trouble putting your feelings into words; in fact, you may have to exercise some control over your tongue, for you are quick to say things and everything you communicate packs a wallop. Things you say mean a lot. You have a great mental drive and lavish great energy on mental pursuits of all kinds. Ideas, words, books, and the like are pursued with great gusto.
Mercury Square Jupiter
You have the mind of a lawyer, always able to size up a problem and come up with a solution. Using your mind to negotiate obstacles and handle dilemmas (your own or those of others), is a great talent. You have an innate ability to guide and lead others through the hurdles and hassles of life. You could be very much in demand as a counselor. You are a problem-solver.
A passionate one, you are never lukewarm in love or business. It’s hot or not. You love mysteries, secrets and intrigue - anything hidden or occult. You have great personal magnetism and a loyalty verging on possessiveness. You enjoy making money and the influence that comes with it. Politics will appeal.
Venus Conjunct Pluto
When you love, you love with energy and passion. You value personal contact, cutting through all the externals and getting to the heart of things. You understand and appreciate vulnerability and have no compunction about presenting your own sensitive spots to others. You enjoy working behind the scenes, getting at secret and hidden areas of the mind and psyche. Changes and transformative experiences are where you like to be most.
Venus Trine Mars
You love to work with younger people and would make a superb teacher or coach. You appreciate a heart-felt approach and are an enthusiast if there ever was one. You understand and encourage emotions, feelings and creativity and find it easy to work in these areas. You value drive and the ability to get things done. Matters of the heart, marriage, and the like are areas where you can help others.
Venus Trine Jupiter
You have an innate love of the law and working things through, and you are not put off by problems and obstacles. On the contrary, you look forward to solving them. You have the ability to work with others, in particular regarding vocation or career guidance. You can advise and guide in matters requiring work-related decisions. Others find you a generous and loving person. You always share what you find and have a lucky streak too.
You have a sense of true understanding and real sacrifice. Dedicated to long-range goals, you are future-oriented. Intuitive, you have an inner drive for all that’s psychological, religious and mystical. Artistic too. You are sensitive and can get lost in the clouds on occasion. You are not too logical or practical when it comes to action, often prefering to ‘go with the flow’.
Mars Conjunct Jupiter
You are driven when it comes to fulfilling your ambitions and carving out a career. There is no lack of energy or drive here, and nothing can stand in your way. Everything is poured into making the right moves, the correct decisions. You are outgoing, enthusiastic, and always diplomatic — everybody’s favorite. You have a natural instinct for making the correct move at the right time. Politics or some public career seem inevitable. Lucky.
Mars Square Saturn
You are responsible to the extreme, always taking on obligations and pushing yourself to the limit. You pursue your obligations with much emotion and obvious enthusiasm. You are spartan when it comes to your needs and surroundings. Small and less are beautiful for you. If anything, you try too hard and tend to force things. Others may find your approach too severe. You can be too sober and frugal.
Mars Trine Pluto
You enjoy working with whatever is psychological — the hidden, vulnerable, sensitive areas of the mind and self. You can handle material that is sensitive or taboo without batting an eye. This interest in all that is psychological makes you an excellent teacher in the field. You have a natural grasp for the political, for handling the public, and you know how to get your way. Your drive in these areas amounts to a passion, and those around you may feel that you are often too intense. Power struggles are somewhat routine for you.
You have a real empathy for people and a genuine ability to sacrifice yourself to help others. You have a love of what’s beyond appearances - psychology, mysticism and occult subjects. Intuitive, sensitive to emotions and sympathetic, you are always giving of yourself and would make an excellent counselor. You attract luck into your life through ‘free-ranging’ and keeping your options open.
Jupiter Square Saturn
You are very “bearish” when it comes to security and seldom make a move that does not strengthen your position. You pursue responsibilities the way others pursue pleasure, and you even invite obligations. Career moves are always solid, based on sound pr inciples, and may be tied in with the law or authorities — all that is solid and well-reasoned. You don’t invest in anything that is not tried and tested. Truth, religion, and philosophy are subjects of great interest.
Jupiter Trine Pluto
Mass psychology (what motivates people) is something you understand. Your career may well be in managing or working with people within a psychological context. You would make a good teacher in these areas too. Counseling or helping people who are in crisis or working out sensitive issues are careers where you could excel. You have a way of sifting through the garbage and coming up with whatever is meaningful or relevant.
Saturn in Sagittarius
There is a lift given to your ambition. The innate coolness and conservatism of Saturn is warmed by the expansive nature of Sagittarius, giving you a philosophical and even inspirational attitude toward your duties and obligations. You also realise that long-term results can be made good only through careful planning.
You have new philosophical ideas for the future, and new approaches to travel and exploration of all kinds. Long journeys interest you. You may startle others with your direct conversations, always getting right to the nitty-gritty. You enjoy being alone, free and on the move. The original optimist.
Uranus Semisquare Pluto
Secrets have a short half-life around you, for you have them out in a wink of an eye. You are brilliant when it comes to insights into the mind, psychology, and motivation — yours or others’. Your intensity is obvious, and some may prefer to keep their distance rather than subject themselves to your laser eye. Nothing is passed over without being turned inside and out. Your analytical powers are superb, and you enjoy finding new avenues of inner growth.Neptune in Capricorn
The practical is the ideal. Form follows function. You have a dream of being in control - the puppetmaster. You are very interested in tradition and tend to be dignified and conservative. You believe in an orderly society led by benevolent monarchs - those who can see what to do.
Neptune Sextile Pluto
You work with real imagination and understanding in areas of the mind that are the most personal or private — depth psychology. You are like a midwife of the spirit, assisting at the birth of each individual going through a spiritual or re-birth process. You accept the natural process of birth, spiritual and physical, and have dedicated yourself to helping it along. You would make a great teacher in these areas.
Pluto in Scorpio
You tear through appearances in an effort to get beneath, behind, and at the heart or essence. You may find psychology, initiation, mysticism and the occult of great interest. Intense personal change and inner growth are lifelong habits.
Gemini on the 1st House Cusp
Gemini is concerned with connections, communication and logic — voice, thoughts, writing, and rational mental processes in general. It is also concerned with making comparisons, ‘twins’ and duplications of all kinds. Gemini is the communicator, the gossip of the zodiac, the collector of trivia. Gemini energy is unattached, independent, very inquisitive and changable.
Cancer is the mother of the zodiac, always making a home, protecting and providing a foundation for others. A sensitive sign where feelings and real experience count more than cold logic, it doesn’t get any more physical and emotional than this. Cancer energy is always nurturing, sensitive, tender and moody. It feeds on emotional comforts, and often has a strong attachment to the past and ancestry. Moon in the 2nd House
Good things (the support you need) always seem to come to you. Friends, co-workers, and plain old lucky circumstances offer encouragement and backing. You often get what you need, when you need it.
Cancer on the 3rd House Cusp
Cancer is the mother of the zodiac, always making a home, protecting and providing a foundation for others. A sensitive sign where feelings and real experience count more than cold logic, it doesn’t get any more physical and emotional than this. Cancer energy is always nurturing, sensitive, tender and moody. It feeds on emotional comforts, and often has a strong attachment to the past and ancestry.
Leo on the 4th House Cusp
Leo energy is expressive, vital and exuberant. Often very artistic, and always theatrical and dramatic, this is the sign of creativity and the arts. Warm and big-hearted, Leo lives in full appreciation and celebration of the finer elements of life, bringing a dynamism and enthusiasm to everything it touches. This is the fearless ‘becoming’ stage, where things are done for their own sake, playfully and with pleasure.
Virgo on the 5th House Cusp
Virgo energy is analytical and precise, always separating out what is worthwhile and worth supporting from that which is outmoded and of no further use. A mental earth sign, here the mind takes control over matter. This is the sign of ‘ways and means’, implementation, instrumentation, physical effectiveness and efficiency. Virgo energy is always facilitating, often caring more for others than for itself.
Scorpio is intense, passionate, and very personal. It rushes past superficialities and right to the heart of any matter. A loyal friend but a fanatic foe, this sign does well in politics and all areas where someone who dares is rewarded. Associated with sexual energy, Scorpio loves to get involved, going down deeper, coming up dirtier, and laying bare anything that lies hidden there. Mercury in the 6th House
You are skilled at using your mind in an analytical manner, always discriminating. An expert at quality control, you can spot the bad apples every time. You may be skillful when it comes to health-related matters (mental or physical).
Venus in the 6th House
You like to do things with care and enjoy being discriminating and exact. Your critical faculties are excellent, and you can always pick out what is worth saving and what is not. You appreciate a caring attitude and are service-oriented.
Saturn in the 6th House
Your critical faculties are very keen, and once you turn your analytical light on, you tend to be relentless in your appraisal. This could make working with others difficult because they find you too scrutinizing. But they also know they can rely on you to carry the heaviest load.
Pluto in the 6th House
You tend to be radical when it comes to self-analysis, which includes health care, food, physical wellbeing. Serving and caring for yourself and others is a primary source of inner growth and change. You are sensitive to criticism.
Sagittarius is nothing if not direct, candid, and to the point, for this sign is always concerned with the absolute truth of the subject at hand. Associated with philosophy, outreach and all things boundless, Sagittarian energy is always welcome in politics as well as social and community endeavors where its basic fairness and expansiveness is helpful. Sun in the 7th House
You love the social life and relationships play a major role in your makeup. Close bonds and partnership activity are very important to you. You are at your creative best when you can feel a sense of ‘togetherness’ with another.
Uranus in the 7th House
You seem to assert your independence in relationships and the social scene. Unconventional, to say the least, you may well enjoy a different kind of marriage or friendship. You have insight into marriage or yoga — the ties that bind.
Neptune in the 7th House
You never forsake your ideals when it comes to relationships of any kind. Your imagination is at its best when you are being social or relating to others. You have a real vision of what marriage is all about.
Capricorn on the 8th House Cusp
Capricorn is the business head of the zodiac, for it is the very opposite of the emotional Cancer. Given to clear ambition and practical insight and vision, this sign always takes a distanced perspective and a cool appraisal. Deliberate and painstaking, sometimes to the point of austerity, Capricorn loves work and the hard-earned results. Status and material reward are very important.
Capricorn on the 9th House Cusp
Capricorn is the business head of the zodiac, for it is the very opposite of the emotional Cancer. Given to clear ambition and practical insight and vision, this sign always takes a distanced perspective and a cool appraisal. Deliberate and painstaking, sometimes to the point of austerity, Capricorn loves work and the hard-earned results. Status and material reward are very important.
Aquarius, the sign of humanitarian goals and altruism. Always impartial and nonsectarian, Aquarian energy is communal (even global). The focus is on the goal, and the goal is always one that is for the many and not the few. Thus this sign is connected to far-seeing visions, world views and group work of all kinds. This sign tends towards coolness, independence. Mars in the 10th House
You are driven to manage and control things. An urge to organize and be practical amounts to a minor obsession. Your career motivation is constant and relentless.
Jupiter in the 10th House
It is natural for you to put your practical and managerial abilities to work. You can make a career out of your keen organizational skills and clear insight into how things work. Supervision and taking charge are your trademarks.
Pisces on the 11th House Cusp
Pisces energy runs deep and toward the mystical — whatever transcends the everyday world. This sign is understanding, patient and compassionate. Super-sensitive, it tends to absorb it’s surroundings like a sponge. The sign is very trusting, accepting and giving of itself for the sake of more important issues. It loves free-ranging activities which allow for some imaginative scope.
Taurus is about drawing on the bounty of the earth, and seeking material security and physical safety there. It is the on-going, enduring, unchanging and preserving element. Hightened sensory input is also important, for it is the mission of this sign to not only find a sense of place within the material realm, but to enjoy it to the fullest, becoming physically aware of, and bonding with the environment.
Lastly, there is no ‘one and only’ reading of the birth chart. The symbols of your horoscope change as your life changes - they mean one thing in the life of a youngster, and quite another in middle age. The mystery of the astrological symbols, and part of their beauty, is that they are flexible enough to be relevant and fixed enough to be meaningful, allowing you to approach your horoscope again and again with questions about past, present and future concerns.
Happy New Years…

Change of Passions: Cartoonist
I’ve decided to do a short series on my current and past Job Passions.
Change of Passions: Cartoonist
I find myself really enjoying performing, always have. I mean I’ve literally been on stage for my entire life! Either being in School plays, in chorus for school, city or county, and even my High School Show Choir. Heck even the month i was born i was supposed to be baby Jesus, though i was a little late via a c-section, thus considering being only a week old they didn’t want such a young baby being held by well young babies (teenagers)… thus the story of my life was told, always being too young. HA.
Well this leads me to my change of passions, by professions I’m a Chef, been cooking all my life, been doing it professionally for the past 6 years; and do NOT plan on stopping. Though i’ve been finding new passion over the past years with the social media craze. I’ve wanted to do so much with my life.
- Cartoon Animator
- Landscape architect
- Talk Show host (and be paid for it)
- Newscaster
- Director (really just a filmmaker)
- Design tShirts
- Chef
To date i’ve technically have done all of that and continue to do in some fashion.
Cartoonist
I have always drawn and sketched all of my life ever since i’ve been able to grip a pencil properly or not. AND I’ve always and still do ever since i was young watched cartoons LOVE them, and i mean love them i believe i have a great imagination because of four reasons.
1) I have two great parents, and no siblings so i’ve always had to make up things to play with or games to do
2) I watched cartoons/movies (esp looney tunes) at a young age. some say that it’s wrong for kids to watch that kinda stuff i say NO… early on kids need to understand real from fake violence, parents raise children on happy PBS stuff without violence then when they reach puberty and play games like GTA3 and Modern Warfare they’re surprised why they go and shoot people. Their parents never taught them any difference… but thats for another blog
3) I always drew! thats right i was the art kid in class never did anything, never studied, never paid any attention… well maybe some but not much, i even got in trouble for drawing on the desk when the teacher took my paper away. (she shoulda took my pencils too.)
4) well im a lefty. proud of that too… nothing more to add studies have shown that more lefties are artsy and imaginative than most other children.
Well this leads me to how i became a semi-non professional Cartoonist (okay amateur cartoonist)
I was unemployed and if you’ve ever been unemployed, you find out FAST that you have a LOT of time on your hands, and i mean alot. thus i started to blog and enjoy the onlineness that i was missing. i became VERY social. started drawing and sketching alot too… started making characters out of thin air and well started too act like a kid again and find my missing imagination….
I wanted to animate them, stories came to my head and everything, i started to read, study, investigate and learn all i could about animating. Mouth movement, walk cycles, talk cycles, jump cycles, 1/4s, 3/4, profiles i did it ALL! Even got the best animation software there is on the market, ToonBoom i HIGHLY recommend it; it’s the best, though costly.
I wrote and went through drafts upon drafts of scripts and characters till i found them, Pucker & Dobbs, Pucker is a porcupine and dobbs is a dog… great characters… made a show Pucker & Dobbs Cartoon Bonanza… first episode was ok, second was better, third wasn’t looney tunes but it was damn good from an amateur cartoonist.
Then i got a job. I did one more cartoon and that was that… slowly though im working on a new episode till come soon, but not for a couple months maybe five.
Before that I started an Animation Studio HappyMuffin, because i wanted to start a whole slew of Animated shorts and shows one specifically Mr Pickle it’s an animated live action talkshow with Mr Pickle and animated pickle as the host. Also even better you can view Pucker & Dobbs Cartoon Bonanza at http://puckeranddobbs.blip.tv/ they’re also available for download via iTunes!

The start of 1 Picture a Day… December 17th 23rd birthday!
1 blog and 1 picture a day….
Next year im going to post 1 blog and 1 picture per day!
On my twitter i vowed to take one picture everyday kinda like that guy did…
but i didn’t quite know how to facilitate that into blog or photo album form so i figured i’d utilize tumblr and post a picture one here…. now since i’m going to do this in the new year, i dont want to give this up and i know i will so in scientific theory it takes a MAXIMUM of 30 days to make or break a habbit… thus im starting a little shy but im doing my “resolution” now so that by 2010 i’ll have a great social habbit to fullfill!
