    I want to finish building my teleportation device, like on Star Trek

    So far it's only a 9 volt battery, a stick and a lot of tin foil

    stage a massive Caligula style orgy with like 300 hot lesbian porn star sluts. i'll be watching them go at it as i sit at a massive table filled with nachos, burritos, enchiladas etc., then join them for 20 seconds of pure delight before i pass out on their squirming bodies.

    I will get abducted by aliens, who decide I deserve to have my IQ upped to 500,000. The world's press know I've been abducted, because by this point I'm a famous rock star, and they're all sneering a bit at what I will "know" in the time I'm away. However, all the world's media have their cameras pointed at the sky hoping that my hosts' UFO's invisibility cloak slips on touchdown. To them, I suddenly appear in a field of nothing, surrounded by a forcefield to protect me from government snipers fearful I know all their secrets. I go straight to a lecture hall, and begin in front of academics, press and assorted luminaries:

    "The answer to uncertainty theory can only be answered by realising elements well beyond our understanding. That matter at the root of certainty, the atomic crux, is composed of similar energy to all originative being: it is the camera built before the object or subject, a kind of pre-organic consciousness that identifies itself mysteriously by its flashlight take on life, an energy that not quite parasitically but mimetically nonetheless bolts onto cognitive processes and synapses of the brain, and which survives beyond the physical death of brain matter ...."

    Then I can die, just as I explain the material basis of spirit, and the scientific proof of the divine godhead.




    Failing that, I'll probably be happy to die on the toilet after the most massive shit ever, that causes roadblocks and seismic dizziness in sheep three hundred miles away.
    after all that you'd be content to die on the shitter?

    the 'uncertainty theory' eh? like the sound of that.


    roaming the globe on a bike similar as to as was seen The Long Way Round or The Long Way Down would be the ultimate for me. Would need a shedload of shekels though, and without their retinue, a safer route.

    I've got a million and one ideas floating around in my head, I just need to find the motivation to sit down and flesh one out soon. I refuse to share, lest I be ripped off. :p:D

    Oh shit, that reminds me...

    I'd like to write, direct and perhaps have a small role in an independent film. I'll also perform the musical score, an ambient electronic sort of thing. My leading lady will be Juliette Binoche, male... probably Edward Norton. It'll be a complex character study with stunning performances from the actors (bar myself) and reviews in small newspapers and underground zines will describe it as "subtle but visceral... a blistering tour de force of emotions, a towering performance from Norton" or some shit like that.

    That's my dream. It's possible. Don't doubt me.

    Never hurts to aim big, right? :p

    I have zero doubt that I'll fail miserably in my attempt to make a TV pilot, considering it'd inevitably be a comedy that would appeal to me, and maybe two other people.

    I can imagine them two in a more complex Bridges of Madison County type thang, not with an ambient electronic score though.
