Changed my avatar. In case anyone is wondering who it is.. it's a cartoon version of Peter Lorre.

Probably my favorite .. not sure how to put it.. but character actor from old Hollywood. Like Helen Kane and her mannerisms incorporated into Betty Boop.. Peter Lorre's speech style and mannerisms were a huge inspiration for the character 'Ren' from Ren and Stimpy.

Aww man.. I know Peter Lorre is considered creepy/ugly looking.. but this site didn't have to go through all this trouble to put a mask over his face. : (

BTW how's the new year going? Is it worth the hype so far?
Well, y'know, two church services in and I've encountered a good dose of the joy of Christ. :)

I'm not even sure why the masks. Are masquerades a traditional NYE thing in America?
I'm not seeing the masks, having seasonal settings turned off. If it's over the eyes, then a quasi-masquerade thing is part of some NYE parties in some places in the US, but I thought it was passé.

Was that trip based on misinformation also? :)
The so-called "solar system" is a conspiracy theory. Don't believe me? Just Google pizza, Epstein, J.F.K. and reptiles. Except don't use Google. Google lies. In fact don't use the internet at all.

True. We've already succumbed to the end of days where man serves tech instead of the other way around. :)
I tend to agree. Was in a conversation with some friends and we were discussing whether the current state of affairs is just cyclical, whether the pendulum can swing back the other way...but no, I think this is the beginning of the end. Digital technology is a game-changer that can't be undone, but this is probably a topic for another thread. :)

OR ... when it fails if someone shorts it all out, it will force mankind to go back to the old ways of survival and self sufficiency of a generation ago that has been all but lost and faces man with extinction. We have to fall in order to learn how to walk. At least that is what is on my mind :)

That's a fairly pessimistic take with which to start the new year.

Today is the first day of a couple of weeks' leave. I'm vaguely pondering what I want to do today, but it's so unpleasantly hot, staying home and not overdoing it is appealing.
