Watched the World of Tomorrow last night after seeing a 100% score from the critics. It is a fabulous dark comedy indeed and a stark reminder that the future of technology might not be so positive. In World of Tomorrow they talk about transfer of consciousness; I’ve written a post or two about future technology/AI…… Continue reading World of Tomorrow
Journal Entry – 9.4.2016 – Karate class
It is 5:52 AM. I’ve washed the dishes, drank my wheatgrass, meditated and now it is time to write. My body continues to be a little sore from karate class which is good and lets me know that I got a good workout in. I’ve become so used to soreness after the gym over these…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 9.4.2016 – Karate class
Five Element Ninjas 五遁忍術
I remember seeing this back in the ’80s at my friend Terry’s house. The only snippet I remember are when the earth element ninjas came out of the ground. I thought it might be fun to watch ninja movies tonight and that memory popped in my head so I thought I could see if I…… Continue reading Five Element Ninjas 五遁忍術
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny
Tonight I thought it would be fun to watch ninja movies since Kai and I made it through our first fighting class in karate. For me, the best ninja movie ever was Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Needless to say it has taken quite…… Continue reading The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying

It is 5:56 AM. I haven’t been to the gym in the while as my body is just tired: it is tired from karate, from endless appointments, from visitors and from stress at work and tired from two young children of mine. Instead of waking up at 4:00 AM as I usually do I just…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 9.1.2016 – Current Society, Ancient Rome and Business Speak

Journal entry – In Oakland
I’m sitting in the 555 12th St. lobby where the faint smell of industrial cleaner and other general, large building lobby smells remind me of my first office job in Columbus, Ohio. I’d go to work with my Dad early in the morning and was intimidated by all the Very Serious looking people in their…… Continue reading Journal entry – In Oakland
