this is where i hideout

I just finished watching Mystic River with Cam and Melissa. I didn't like it. First of all, the title is misleading...I figured there would be some sort of "mystic"al aspect to the movie, but there wasn't. The soundtrack sucked, sorry Clint, and I just didn't really get the point of it. Oh well, only a couple hours wasted today. Other than that the day was good, I recorded four guitar tracks for the Bella album in the afternoon and played Nintendo for awhile.

I'm reading this book called "Wholeness and the Implicate Order" by David Bohm. It's very interesting, talking in the first chapter about our world view and how it is so fragmented. I like thinking of the world as whole; of everything existing dependant on something else, fundamentally interconnected.

Has anyone ever heard of the "pineal gland"? Apparently it is "a small, reddish gray, vascular, conical body of rudimentary glandular structure found in the brain and having no known function." It is also believed to be the "spiritual eye". "While the physiological function of the pineal gland has been unknown until recent times, mystical traditions and esoteric schools have long known this area in the middle of the brain to be the connecting link between the physical and spiritual worlds." I just thought that was interesting. I think it's also interesting that it's represented on the American $1 Bill. (the eye on the top of the great pyramid)

Here's another crazy finding of late. Some of you may know of my complex with the number 11:11. Ever since I was a teenager, I've been seeing this number quite regularly, usually at least once if not twice a day, just by randomly looking at a clock. Also, if you add up the numerical value of all the letters in my name (a=1, b=2, etc...), you get 111. I've always had this feeling like it means something really important but I haven't ever known what. Anyway I came across this website and it provides a theory anyway. http://www.crystalinks.com/11.11.html Wierd and crazy stuff man.

Hmmm....that's all for now kids.
