cdcstudios.com | portfolio v9 : Extreme Honesty a social media experiment

Thu, 28 Jul 2011 04:38:56 +0000

I suppose yet I do have to say I find it just the slightest bit ironic that you're doing precisely the same thing :D Of course that sort of thing is literally what the experiment was about. Given this response I don't feel like you grasped the point of this post and the entire experiment as a whole. What part of the article didn't do a good job explaining it was an experiment conducted using scientific frameworks and best practices for methodology? It almost feels as though you may have skimmed the article and instead just commented on it.

Where do you think I learned this behavior? You have always been one to lecture at great length about what you know best. You were one of the strongest proponents of a. helping people understand what they don't b. and to call nonsense for what it is. Since I've spent years trying to learn about religion I actually know more about it than most religious people. Even better I have scientific studies showing this to be a normal trend :D

There's that whole problem with large numbers of oregon residents being unwilling to pay for those increased patrols. Every time a department asks for more budget typically hiring personnel are the first expenditures. Most government agencies are short staffed. This is why taxes are a good thing. People cost money.

cdcstudios.com | portfolio v9 : I hate tea partiers but love the concept (Screw you teaparty)

Wed, 15 Jun 2011 19:18:15 +0000

I\\\'m not entirely sure why you\\\'re bringing up the actions of a single political party when the topic at hand is really about how a small but very vocal group of near retarded ignorant people decided that they were going to complain loudly about a black guy trying to make things better for poor Americans. Yes the parties suck but they actually usually have enough mental fortitude to not be little more than dryer lint as opposed to ma and pa teapartier who somehow manage to make the banjo playing kid from Deliverance seem like a Rhode Scholar. As for Ron Paul: He thinks we can survive as a nation by becoming purely isolationist. We\\\'re a global economy now, have been for years and there is no reason to pull back from that. Air, water don\\\'t respect borders so how can anyone expect it to be a good thing to pretend that it does. We need future thinkers not those who decided that 200 years ago was an awesome time for America. We\\\'re better than this.

cdcstudios.com | portfolio v9 : I just donated my hair to Locks of Love and feel great for doing it!

Thu, 21 Apr 2011 22:41:45 +0000

I've done this before actually. Waaay back in the summer of 1998. I cut it on tour with the excellent Santa Clara Vanguard because it was bloody hot. In that situation one of the color guard moms for the corps told me about Locks of Love for the first time. So when I shaved my head in Denver I mailed the hair off straight away! I hope that the boys and any other children I may have consider doing the same as children. According to the Locks of Love website most of the people who donate are children which makes me feel really optimistic about our future.

Stop listening to the voices that doubt you. It took throwing away the idea that I was worthless to turn me toward finding value in myself by working for it. You've worked your ass off and your family and friends are so proud of that. Hell most of us admire you if not outright envy you. You rock! PF'ing!

It's all good, I'll admit I post the political posts in an inflammatory manner so enjoy somewhat seeing these sorts of replies. What irks and saddens me is how few people that espouse the views of Glenn Beck and others of his ilk can recognize the hypocrisy in themselves. They ALWAYS post negative comments that have a tendency towards blind, uninformed (if not pitifully myopic) fairly incoherent dialogue. So really, so long as they're writing their drivel out on a blog run by an unabashed liberal that means they're spending less time ruining the world for our children and grandchildren.

I have saved money for my kids for college. As for "having a shiny ride" if by "Shiny ride" you mean did I buy myself a reliable form of transportation so I could go and see my sons since my exwife was kind enough to take both cars when she left? Yes I suppose I did. Though given the shape it is in and how much work it still needs I'd hardly call it shiny. Should you be off being a busybody for someone else? Honestly if the things you say about me were to be true I'd have to be an uncaring monster which means your words would have little to no effect on me. Of course it is untrue but since you seem to believe it so much who am I to disagree? Oh right, it's my website with my name all over it and you're just a sad pathetic anonymous idiot who always posts from the same ISP :D Have a great day "whoever" you are.

Funny how you post anonymously using a false email can't make any truthful arguments and yet think that gives you any sort of right to say anything about me. Of course it doesn't take a rocket scientist to determine who this is since you always post these crappy comments from the same Clear account with the same IP address.

Only one instance of socialism working? How about these: Fire department, Police department, The Army, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, Air Force, Nasa? What else do you need? Oh wait! How about public education (which actually works quite well until idiots attempt to change history). I'm sure you've got evidence to back up your claims beyond Russia and China right? I mean Finland has some very socialist policies. As does Great Britain. Obviously though you've done the research (by research I mean looked up verifiable unbiased sources that aren't a Fox News subsidiary) right? Right?!

I like how you (a man who presumes to know so much) dismiss Global warming out of hand. Who are these fact finders that have disproven it? Glenn Beck? (an idiot) Sarah Palin (see glenn beck)? Fox news? I'm going to go with "why don't we err on the side of caution since if we're wrong we spent money. Otherwise we're all fucked". See that's what separates liberals from conservatives. Liberals value people above all else. You fucktard halfwits think material items are more important. Ironically your side also presumes to be more "christian". By all means though continue with your head up your ass, a friendly compassionate liberal will happily lead you to safety (the same way we have for decades)

What a great first comment Jim, Welcome to my blog. I find it neat that you are so apt and amazingly talented that you can literally pluck thoughts from my head. Obviously this is a result of careful diligent work on your part making sure that you have absolutely no original thoughts. I love your ability to also assume to know anything about me. But by all means please continue on your illogical attack based comments.

cdcstudios.com | portfolio v9 : The road to redemption is a hard path to travel.

Thank you for your words of kindness and experience. I'm only a few weeks into working my way back to the real world rather than the one I've spent far too long in. You're right the path is dark and so much more unbearable without the depression hiding the truth anymore. I can still feel it but it was a dull ache compared to the razor sharp pain now. I suggest opening up to those old friends, coworkers and ex-lovers about things you've done to them. I finally admitted something to an ex of mine that she'd known about for years. She'd made peace with it and my deciding to admit it finally took that weight off my shoulders. Forgiving yourself is a lot easier to do when other people forgive you for it. Telling the truth about things you've done is the best step one can take in forgiving yourself. Right now all I can do is learn to trust in myself, love myself and to be the better person I know I am. That's all I have the ability to manage doing.

So it's currently been 6 days since I last had a cigarette. 15 days since I had a drop of alcohol. I'm achieving some of my goals. It feels good doing it. Though it's also quite exhausting to see how far I still have to go.

In many ways it feels good, I feel each day like parts of me are being used again for the first time in months. Like waking up with pins and needles in your arm or legs. The hardest part is knowing that in many ways I've lost everything that ever mattered to me. Having only memories remaining of the happiest times in my life is an exquisite agony but at the same time has been very important in helping me to continue the uphill path. The knowledge that I can be the person I was to experience so much joy and happiness keeps me going especially in the face of how I hurt those I care for. In the last 3 weeks I've given up, smoking, alcohol, drugs, workaholism and red meat for the most part. Pretty amazing that I'm not really missing any of them. I also started sleeping almost regularly last night. Got all the way up to 6 hours without waking up. Every day the path gets a little bit easier but I can still feel the immense weight trying to lure me back down. I will not..can not give in, not for myself nor for the chance to be a good father to my boys. I love you Zandr! I love you Mikey! Daddy is getting better and better and misses you very much.
