Capt panda and 7 brothers - and the well and rain and invisible helpers

Reality tv - 100 kids

Reality tv - 100 kids

1 man - 100 wives

Will you have my baby and look after it for 30k a year for 18 years?

I will build a city, with a school and a hospital

And some of those kids will have their own show

What does it mean?

Inspiring work

Inspiring work

Talking about my favorite books
My favorite movies
My favorite songs

Toothpaste and brushing teeth pRon

Toothpaste and brushing teeth pRon

Make fun (?) of pRon by using the act of brushing teeth as sexual

Also flossing works too

Should it be in a dentist's office?
With uniforms?
In the special chair?

The ancestor's wail / the ancestors wall

How can I personify evil for my writing?
How can I perosnify good for the web?

Evil corrupt empire paints itself in blood as just and humane
It has built roads all over its empire to allow movement of its troops
and tax collectors
The forces for good inside it have been reduced
(Human empires)

Again and again we are thrust out
From our homeland
from our ancient home in earth's marine volcanic vents 2.5 billion years
ago (taq's tale from the ancestor's tale r. Dawkins)
To my parents homeland in pasadena 35 years ago

We evolve or die in the jungles viet nam
Or die in the streets of baghdad

Stay and fight and die
Or run
Or walk
Or brachiate
Or think
Or talk
Or predict
Or create
Or buy
And keep evolving

Keep eating the dead
It is what we know
We are the result of genes that have survived at least 2.5 billion
years

But I guess we are older
If it is no coincidence
That the macroscopic resembles microscopic

And the solar system is the womb of our birth
And the earth our mothers egg
And the comets our fathers sperm bringing water and carbon
And the asteroids death

And 40,000 years an ice age coincided with jared diamonds great leap
forward that he chronicles in guns germs steel
Hominids cro magnons left no art before this
But these weren't just ornaments
They left luxury items that were used as gifts to prevail over other
humans

------------------

And on a island mammals shrink in size to conserve size in order to
preserve a viable population size

------------------

The video mags
Wrestle bacchus
All roads
365 hours of content
No 1 way to reveal it all
Are they are enough affordable producers
Creating illuminating content
That consumers can appreciate
At least 1
I can make it myself
With a dvd burner, folders, photos, movies, rainbow movie navigation,
slides shows, song, locked files, emails, hand written letters, sms, 1/2
biz cards (photo 1side, txt 2side) and posters

------------------

I want to do public service announcements
I want to direct creative and technical teams
With photography and models - bread shoes and flowers - and live
musicians

That tell stories
Stories that require action
Like
Djinni - asks me - you have three wishes - what would they be?

A: first wish would be to live honourably
Q: what do you mean by that
A: do no harm and do unto others as you have them do unto you. I do not
want to knowingly or unknowingly profit from the exploitation of others.
I do not want the goods that I purchase or consume to pollute the world
or harm others. I do not want the production of the goods that I
purchase or consume to pollute the world or harm others. In fact I want
the goods that I purchase to clean the world and heal myself and others.
In fact I want the productions of the goods I purchase to clean the
world and heal myself and others.

A: Die honourably
Q: what do you mean?
A: I thought I meant dying without regrets, but I am not that selfish. I
want to die having loved and been loved in return. I am ready anytime
even though I can never have enough. I love now, and am loved in
return.

A: Save the world
Q: how is this different from live honourably?
A: living honourably is passive.
I want billion dollar silicon wafer plants AND clean drinking water AND
reverse greenhouse warming AND reward 1 child families AND tax luxury
items more for social services AND telecommunication satellites AND
dominion of over our bodies reproductive or euthanasia AND all drugs -
recreational pharmaceuticals included - are medicines and should be
available with prescription for purchase from pharmacists AND oppression
and tyranny should be opposed with laughter and non-violence AND
renewable and sustainable and affordable access to electrical generation
- the seed AND to honour our ancestors all the way back to the dawn of
life that the act that our inception recreates with egg and sperm

Digital posters - confidence building needed

==What==
Digital posters
phase 1 - confidence building needed

==Why==
What could I have been thinking?

I almost talked myself into wearing the emperor's new clothes.

I don't need spec or scope until I have confidence that there is a
product - not just thread that only the wise can see.

We don't have a beta quality product - its barely an alpha.

I don't have confidence in it now - but I know how I can get it and
roughly how much it will cost.

==Where==
Where is confidence needed?

3 places:

1- quality - platform itself - is the code good enough?
I have heard grumblings
I want other developer feedback (brutal honesty) and qa

2- quantity - features - are the features right?
No - you want abstacts bundled - not enough on its own
I want more client feedback
I want it to stand on its own
What can we charge for different feature / development risk set

3- clients - 2 clients is not enough to justify the amount of investment
we are planning - and only 1 client (cns) from start to finish
I want to see 5 or 6 clients use it free and actually sign up to buy it
the next year or longer

==How==
Spend $8k to 24k over 6 months.

Q: What's the cheapest way to acquire confidence?
A: Buy 3 or 4 more clients by offering to do it for $6k or all the way
down to free (emailing your list of 300 names - 4 beta testers needed),
1 every 1 or 2 months, or until the time the confidence issues are
addressed - using offshore resources to make it cost effective (1/3
cost)

1- more implementations to gauge platform quality - developer / hosting
/ integration feedback

2- more clients to nail down required feature set

3- more clients to focus level of investment needed

==Questions==
What can you add?

What other things can we do?

What are my other options?

Why buy digital posters clients when I could buy a long list op
customers?

I plan to keep alex to prep server boxes to ship

Over these clients maxi / dragos / adrian can be trained

Ideas - can you Trust your mother

Moncia, Daniel / Dallae - here's my thinking.

Idea - can youTrust your mother

Can you can tell her
What you really think of me
Your husband

Can she abandon you for choosing me as your husband
Not more then you can abandon her

Will she always be your mother no matter what you do?
Will you always be her daughter no matter what you do

Do you feel any guil for ignoring her warning?
Are you ready to ask her to forgive you?

Does your mother knows something worth knowing?

Ask for her advice
Listen and take to heart what she has to say

Ask your mother what your grand-mother told her about your father.

Did your mother listen to your grand-mother?

Ask your mother what she told your grand-mother about your father.

What couldn't she tell your grand-mother?

What did your mother want to ask your grand-mother but never had enough
courage to ask?

Black horse dream

A Black horse came to me in my dream
I had two companions on horseback as well

I rode bare back
Over hills
on the plains
The wide way

At first I showed my companions
How to ride while the horses walked
And then we cantered
And then I rode at full gallop

No feeling so joyful
Se free
So plain

I love that black horse

When I awoke
I thought I might see my horse again
Googling for horse riding vancouver
I found horses
But not mine

Thoughts crash, words fail

Thoughts crash, words fail to explain
Simple mysteries of frustation's expectations

Temperature rises
Pressure builds with out end
Pushing
Breaking
Cracking
Alarm bells go off
Heart pounding
Thorat is dry
I just want to blow everything up

Kaboom!

Walk
Swing my arms back and forth
Breathe
Join left and right hemispheres together

The mystery of the software salesperson

Once upon a time, I had a software company that need customers

So I looked and looked and I hired a guy to sell software. He worked in
toronto and found lots of leads. But he wasn't used to deal with RFPs
and failed.

So I was depressed I had failed and decided I would never hire a
salesperson again.

But along can I came a guy that could sell anything over the phone. He
was always able to find himself work, but the people he hired for me
couldn't close like he could so they failed.

So I was depressed I had failed and decided I would never hire a
salesperson again.

But then a terrible thing happened. Our biggest customer asked for a
written RFP and I knew that though I try my best and learn a lot I
couldn't win because they had selected a winner already.

So I did my best - which wasn't that good and lost. And without that
contract I was going to be out a job. And I vowed I would win by finding
someone who could.

And I did. I remembered a guy who done a good writing a business plan. I
didn't get the deal but the plan was good.

I didn't get the deal but it was good. So not good enough.

So he is hired, through no fault of my own.

And here is now the troulbes I bring before you:
- an increase in 3 x of his salary
- not commission
- flexible hours - not 8hrs x 5 days
- scaring them away with big numbers

Be here with me

Come be here with me
Here where luxuries are nothing
Luxuries are to the worm
What works is to the hook
The hypnotism so complete
The spell so great
The work so hard
Doublethink so perfect
Cyborg already
Virtual human already
How can we feed everyone?
Synthetic phylums
Make your own passport
Do you hate tyranny and oppression?
Vote for democracy with your eyes
Vote with your ears
Vote with your feet
We can help other
And free ourselves
We know we are only as free as the disappeared
We know we are only as satisfied as the starving
We know we are only as well as the sick
We know we are only as safe as those at war
Take courage
We can do it again
Its why we are here
Its what are hearts pump for
Its what makes us breathe in and out
These millions of years
That we first came to this rock
Showered by the universe with light and water and air and organic
compounds
And our ancestors gave us their lives
May I be crushed and returned to dust in love as now as forever
Star after star
Galaxy after galaxy
Universe after universe
For ever and ever
Time without end

It goes likes - something like this - something just like this

I put an ad in craigslist
I need people to read my poems while I videotape them
I need people to write my poems while I videotape them
I need people to speak my poems while I videotape them

I need people to videotape me while I videotape them
I need people to videotape me reading my poems
I need people to videotape me writing my poems
I need people to videotape me speaking my poems

I need to edit the poems on top of the videos

I need to submit the videos to film festivals

It it is so simple

the story

The story has a conflict and mystery
Looking into myself
I find two overwhelming responses to
My imagined present condition

==Ponce de Leon==
Ponce de Leon is a lord of war
Who seeks peace through battle
Who seeks glory
Who wants to burn everything down
And legitimize his murders to become dictator
Using fighting for freedom and justice as his shield

==Cort Scott==

You don't live here - but imagine you did

Do be an effective story teller I have to say to myself:
You don't live here - but imagine you did

Why?
Why live else where?
Is it better?
Is this place bad?

Or are the idea so good they need to be preserved forever?

I want to be entertained
Or distracted
Or discharged

Already centered and whole people
Are complete unto themselves
And are fountains of endless energy
That is not blocked as it is in me
Because my irrational requirements are not
Met
And so I need a story
Must tell a story
