Wonder Woman 1942 interview w/ William Moulton Marston
Going through the Wonder Woman video tapes I’m selling on ebay, I started reading the backs on some. Here are some excerpts from a 1942 Family Circle interview with Wonder Woman creator Dr. William Moulton Marston.
Marston was asked if he thought man could ever stop waging war: “Oh yes, but not until women control men. Wonder Woman – and the trend toward male acceptance of female love power, which she represents, indicates that the first psychological step has actually been taken. Boys, young and old, satisfy their wish thoughts by reading comics. If they go crazy over Wonder Woman, it means they’re longing for a beautiful, exciting girl who is stronger than they are. These simple, highly imaginative picture stories satisfy longings that ordinary daily life thwarts and denies. Superman and the army of male comics characters who resemble him satisfy the simple desire to be stronger and more powerful than anybody else. Wonder Woman satisfies the subconscious, elaboratedly disguised desire of males to be mastered by a woman who loves them.”
In regards to Wonder Woman’s trade mark bracelets, Marston had this to say: “Wonder Woman and her sister Amazons have to wear heavy bracelets to remind them of what happens to a girl when she lets a man conquer her. The Amazons once surrendered to the charm of some handsom Greeks and what a mess they got themselves into. The Greeks put them in chains of the Hitler type, beat them, and made them work like horses in the fields. Aphrodite, goddess of love, finally freed these unhappy girls. But she laid down the rul that they must never surrender to a man for any reason. I know of no better advice to give modern women than this rule that Aphrodite gave the Amazon girls.”
Ear Expanding Advice
I learned this lesson when I went from 6 to 4 gauge ear piercings, but apparently forgot it:
Once you’ve stretched your ears, let the plugs in for at least 3-5 days before thinking about swapping them. I just tried to put in a screw-tunnel on my freshly 0 gauged ears. Ouch. For the record 0g hurt by far the most of any stages.
Not another t-shirt
I’m so used to taking my picture every day to post here, that it seems strange not to. So I think I may continue chronicling my daily evolutions for a while. It should be interesting to compare how my hair and face change.
Astronomy and Astrology
I’ve always been fascinated by both Astronomy and Astrology, and lately I’m convinced that there is a real connection between them. If the gravity of the moon can make the tides, think what the gravity of a black hole can do. I think that the alignment of the earth to the rest of the universe, specifically black hole locations has a bearing on the way that the human brain develops during its embryonic state. Thus the influence of these gravities from their locations during the time of your gestation causes subtle differences in the way your brain grows and results in the differences between the astrological signs.
I could be completely wrong, but it fits into my views on gravity, the universe and theology as well. During the year, the Earth changes position just enough to allow for different areas of the rest of the universe to effect us. The sun’s gravity would overwhelm the pull of stars and black holes on the opposite side of it, thus negating their influence.
Just a thought I’ve had for a while that I wanted to get out of my head.
T-Shirt 107 – Ferris Air/Green Lantern – this is the last one!
LAST ONE! Apparently I have 107 T-Shirts. Geoff gave this one to me when I was just out in LA, so I saved it for the last one as it was the newest. Ferris Air Test Pilot Shirt, straight from the pages of Green Lantern. Wow. So I’m not sure what to wear now… might be time to get an entirely new wardrobe.
Thanks for playing.

Freshly skinnned
finally found a new skin i like. now just messing with colors and icons.
it is missing utah. possibly some squirrels too. i suppose chakik is technically in the design
CandyClues.com won Adobe Site of the Day!
Booo Yeah!
CandyClues.com won Adobe Site of the Day
So happy. :)
ps. here is a bad costume photo:

what cala and i look like at night
in case you were wondering.
i was.
my jacket is reflective.
worn off from the backpack i wore in san francisco.
but still seems effective.
time long ago.
but still right here.
life is strange.
the jacket looks like its dark blue and gray in normal light.
sweet eh? I have gloves too.
so much for technology.
42 – The answer to life the universe and Everything?
The Squirrel
That is the answer.
new skin UTAH!
updated the skin. uses same base css, just new purty pictures. Hooray for UTAH. The main utah photo is from my trip with Paul to Canyonlands. This photo was taken just before it got totally dark, and i lost my way back to camp, resulting in me jumping off a cliff.
The original photo.
who sent you
why are you here?
now?
no, really, why are you here? do you know me? perhaps i told you? maybe you think im Joe?
why here and why now? no that is the wrong question.
of course here and of course now, the question is WHICH WAY?
Say hello to my little friend…
actually Chakik would be my little friend. Say hello to the new tattoo:
You can see the ‘branding’ scars under it, the artist’s concern was with such a mathematically precise design, it would not take properly over the scars. Soooo… i get to come up with some kind of organic/faded image behind it. Thinking some kind of crazy stylized tree right now.
New Tattoo – iChing Pi
I’m thinking about getting another tattoo. I want to get the hexagram Pi from the Chinese book of the iChing. Thinking about putting it over the burns on my left arm. I drew it on in blue sharpie to see how I like it.
Seeing how I like it
Here is the meaning of the hexagram:
I-Ching Hexagram 12 – Pi – Standstill
This hexagram is the opposite of the preceeding one [hexagram 11 - T'ai - Peace (11)] Heaven is above, drawing farther and farther away, while the earth below sinks farther into the depths. The creative powers are not in relation. it is a time of standstill and decline. This hexagram is linked with the seventh month (August-September), when the year has passed its zenith and autumnal decay is setting in.
THE JUDGMENT
STANDSTILL. Evil people do not further
The perseverance of the superior man.
The great departs; the small approaches.
Heaven and earth are out of communion and all things are benumbed. What is above has no relation to what is below, and on earth confusion and disorder prevail. The dark power is within, the light power is without. Weakness is within, harshness without. Within are the inferior, and without are the superior. The way of inferior people is in ascent; the way of superior people is on the decline. But the superior people do not allow themselves to be turned from their principles. If the possibility of exerting influences is closed to them, they nevertheless remain faithful to their principles and withdraw into seclusion.
THE IMAGE
Heaven and earth do not unite:
The image of STANDSTILL.
Thus the superior man falls back upon his inner worth
In order to escape the difficulties.
He does not permit himself to be honored with revenue.
When, owing to the influence of inferior men, mutual mistrust prevails in public life, fruitful activity is rendered impossible, because the fundaments are wrong. Therefore the superior man knows what he must do under such circumstances; he does not allow himself to be tempted by dazzling offers to take part in public activities. This would only expose him to danger, since he cannot assent to the meanness of the others. He therefore hides his worth and withdraws into seclusion.

all around me
we need to group together before we tear each other apart for what will quickly change.
i wish we were descended from squirrels. not apes.
squirrels fit into every society.
apes create society by changing the environment.squirrels adapt to the environment.
i think the word “their” should be removed from the planetary dialect.
they’re and there are fine.
also lets redefine “i,you,we,they,us,our,is” good.
are we too complacant?
drinking beer?
those of us that get turned on usually die young. lets hope we can change that quickly.
solar solar solar. its all about solar energy. i dont understand why we are even toying with anything else.
gravity is a good energy i suppose. but that is so far beyond consideration now for any influence besides planetary coalesation, coalescence. coalesce.
how is coalescation not a word?
what is the product of the universe coalescing?
late night lost
its interesting how everything coalesceses. pretty sure that is a word.
why are we here? what are we doing?
anyone who knows me well knows i have a complex. tonight it fired hard.
what if i’m supposed to change it all digitally? in 100, 200 years, isnt that magic again? unexplainable again?
i dont know why i keep having these thoughts and feelings, but it seems as if everything i do is tied to everything everyone else does.
and thats the whole point.
maybe some day.
life and time
whats a new way to sell things to you?
we’ve seen blogs, video blogs, tattoos, parties, even ads in ads. whats next?
thats what ive been tasked to answer at work. i love coming up with fun new ideas for corporate sponsored media outlets. at the same time i think about macchu piccu (im sure i spelled that wrong) and the beer commercial that damaged it. consumption, at the endorsed level it exists at in the united states currently cannot continue.
we all have to change how we live in order to keep living with the future of this planet. right now we are hoping we can colonize mars when the analysts come back and say we should have stayed on solar power. the
oil was created by the impact of the earth and another celestial body collided and created the moon.
Pleo Abuse
I’d like to get 2 Pleo Robots and treat one nicely and abuse and neglect the other, to see how much the really do interact/react to their environment.

do you understand the signifigance of what i did tonight? child of loneliness met another at random
tonight turned out exactly as i typed it. if you recognized it or not.
im sorry bill. i knew you needed sleep and i am (obviously) still up.
tuesday
too much as always too fast
i keep freaking people out. i dont makefriends. the people i want as friends i dont talk to.
what is going on. you know, and i know, and we know what is wrong. why is it stillunfixed.
i spilled margarita on my fancy keyboard, thus the lack of spaces. 2nd one down.
what is astrological gravitational pull amplified when thru planets, not reduced.
we’d still be grasping at straws.
never in the history of ever will we know what we want to know.
always during the passing of ever are we given all the answers we need.
i have been fighting the same fights over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.
i dont feel punches anymore. not there.
its numb.
over and over and over and over and over.
but something emerges.
changing
?
??
i dont know, i had to fight for it last time, when i shouldnt have.
i have to do something about this state.
and be the dooer.
Time Backwards
The weird reverse time thing is happening again. Phish vs Psychology. Adds on my site were that. Ringtones and jobs in the UK.
7:45; 7:50; 7:05; 9:24; 8:20
can you guess?
ITS ON

all the way

ourselves. do it now. just do it now.
Black Hole Data Theory Solution
Our percieved reality and everything in it is a reslut of evolution across multiple universes. Steven Hawkings new theory on black holes (at least as discovery channel told me) considers that the data lost into black holes is not lost, but vented into other universes. In parallel universes that back hole is not there so no data loss. The universes evolve into the result of the ones with the fewest black holes. [Insert Steven Hawkins Black Hole Data Revision Theory Here].
This works directly like my bubble theory.
When all the black holes reconnect into one, the universe will explode out of it self into a new multiverse.
So the universe we live in shares the number of black holes with all other existing parallel universes. Slowly all the data will coalesce into one final and ultimate Black Hole. When the final black hole draws in the final bit of data from this side it will explode into a Big Bang to the other side and everything will begin again.
So the final universe will constantly oscilate back and forth between the two maximum expansion scenarios, all the while uniquely evolving into the most likely universe to exist when it is first consciously observed. This universe will evolve parallel with an, initially, infinte number of other universes that all share the data stream.
As the universes expand, and matter becomes seperated, it will slowly form into masses (planets on the grand scale) by gravity. Gravity begins as visible matter coalesces, from everything in uniform space and time into black holes over billions (or more) of years. The first step is the instant that two bits of data passed through the final black hole collide and form a new heavier bit that is easier for all the following bits to hit. As the amount of dark matter increases by being drawn into these black holes, space will brighten and evolve into the state that we see it.
[earlier gravity theory]
If we combine them with a positive philosophy for life as we know it and we can ensure that our universe has the last black hole. [data flowing into a black hole]
Meaning the energy binding our matter is stronger than all the dark matter energy in the universe; which is just the measurement of the weight of all the data that has coalesced thru black holes into the multiple coexisting universes we percieve currently as the dark, empty, cold void we call space.
Of course all of this is only theoretical and unprovable, including Mr. Hawking’s theory.
Here’s some immediate thoughts for actually changing our current existence:
Recycling program for the elderly.
Exercise programs for dogs.
Fun learning for everyone!
