Nice Guys

Women naturally want to mate with powerful, dominant, influential, sexual men. How you treat women is not a big factor in how attracted they are to you, it's a lot more about how you treat yourself. If you're the type of guy who kisses any attractive girls' feet and supplicates to them at every turn, you obviously don't value yourself very much, and therefore they won't value you either. Sheer assholishness is often misconstrued by dumber girls as confidence, which is why it seems that bitter assholes have awesome luck with women. However, the smarter girls (the ones you want to be with, honestly) can see that it is actually a lack of stability and confidence that they take out on other people.

The best way to get women to like you is to like yourself and not be afraid to let girls you want know that you want them. You don't have to be an asswipe to get laid.

Jesus Camp Movie

I was truly disturbed watching Jesus Camp. The abuse heaped on these children is horrible. It makes me want to go and "save" all of them. I do think that evangelical churches need to be watched closely for society's next murderers, serial killers, and social pariahs.

book

genetics of science...a book that determines if and which bloodlines produce the most significant discoveries in science.

growth hormone

Use Growth Hormone to grow a child to be taller than genetics would normally present. Reason: taller men receive higher incomes and more sexual selection than others.

Privileges

Female Privilege List
Privileges I have as a woman, that "others" - mostly men - don't have.

1. I’m under less pressure than others to engage in risky, dangerous and unhealthy behaviors - one of the reasons I get to live longer than others do.
2. I can choose professions that are less lucrative, and not be called a loser.
3. If I don’t rise to the top of my profession, it’s OK – people won’t judge me the less for it.
4. I’m entitled to the benefits of a safe, orderly society, but no one expects me to risk my personal safety to maintain it.
5. I have the right to have the overwhelming majority of personal risk suffered in defense of my country handled by others.
6. I’m allowed to avoid violence, and even run from it, without the risk I’ll be laughed at.
7. If I see someone else in danger, I’m allowed to stop and think carefully about my personal risk before saving them, without my courage being called into question.
8. I have the right to avoid risky, dangerous challenges, and not be called a coward.
9. I’m allowed to cry as a child and tell my parents I’m scared of something - my parents won't be disappointed with me.
10. I have the right to have most of the really dangerous professions handled by others.
11. If I commit a crime, I get less jail time than others would get for the exact same crime.
12. When I find myself with others in a terrifying, life-threatening situation, I have the right to be evacuated first, once the children are safe. Others can wait.
13. If I get slaughtered as part of some atrocity, people will be especially outraged and will call particular attention to the fact I was slaughtered. When others are slaughtered, it isn't quite as upsetting.
14. I have the right to give my child up for adoption, and thus totally repudiate any personal and financial responsibilities I might otherwise have.
15. I can choose whether I want to be a parent or not, knowing that society will compel the other parent to meet their financial responsibilities - whether they want to or not.
16. If I am personally attacked, I expect otherwise safe, otherwise uninvolved people to come to my defense.
17. If I see someone else being attacked, I’m not expected to risk my own safety to defend them. It's OK for me to wait for others to intervene, and it’s also OK for me to criticize others if they don’t.
18. In any dispute involving custody, I’m granted the presumption that I am the better, safer parent.
19. I have the right to interact with children not my own, and not have people look at me suspiciously.
20. If I choose to become a parent, people understand if I want to focus entirely on the personal, day-to-day care and nurturing of my children. Society expects my spouse to make enough money to make this choice possible.
21. I can get real nasty when someone makes me mad, and call them ugly, a loser, a nerd, a geek, a disgusting creep, a revolting little worm, a worthless piece of garbage, a scum bag, a wimp, a pervert, a jerk-off, an old fart, or a fat slob. After all, I have the right not to be treated meanly at work, and the right not to hear harsh things that might make me uncomfortable. I have legal recourse if that right is not respected, and I have the right to make this perfectly clear on my job interview.
22. I’m allowed to embrace and cultivate my spiritual qualities, and adopt a more elevated and more refined view of life - because other people handle all the "dirty work" like: yard work, garbage hauling, construction, fishing, mining, sewage disposal, street cleaning, long distance trucking, baggage handling, painting, sandblasting, and cement work.
23. If I fail at something, I can go to college and study the historical forces and social constructs that make it harder for people like me. If others fail, it’s because they just don’t have what it takes.
24. If I fail at almost everything, I can always teach college courses that explain why people like me fail a lot.

Gateway - Sells crappy computers. Luckily, I've never bought one of theirs.

A Two week vacation

Making a list, checking it twice, ... So far this has been a highly fulfilling and satisfying hiatus. Recently, went to spy museum, american indian museum, smithsonian museum, and holocaust museum. Also, looking to do the Baltimore Zoo, National Aquarium (with 4d theatre), and the inner harbor today.

I think also visiting Dupont Circle, the national zoo, the power plant, conowingo dam, and the new york zoo might be fun.

As for movies, Ive seen Star Trek 3 times, wolverine (xmen), Up, Wargames 2, and Terminator. This combined with an active instant Netflix account (and Hulu for rewatching arrested development) has provided a whirlwind of new cinema to parse.

Flea market and Family Reunion may be on the plate. Probably time to find some time to meditate.

Clearly

If only using the word 'clearly' was a substitute for science, how easy life would be.
