DEEP THOUGHT #11.1

What's up everybody this is Lord Avanton. I'm getting back into the flow of blogging so I'll be publishing stuff pretty quickly. This DEEP THOUGHT will be on Cryonics! It's basically when a being is vitrified, chemically frozen, and then they are preserved for an undisclosed period of time. This normally happens when someone is dying of a disease that cannot be cured and they want to wait until a cure can be made in the future. So BOOM! In the freezer you go. This was developed by Robert Ettinger in the 1950's and he published his theory in 1962 in his book The Prospect of Immortality. Ettinger recently died in August 2012 from respiratory failure and his 92 year old body was vitrified and preserved in the same institute that he helped to create. He was 106th patient. Right, now it's time to go really deep for a little background, this is a excerpt from a paper I'm writing on this subject, "Death is the only thing in life that is certain. We all know that we will perish one day. We are afraid of death. We are afraid because we don’t know what lies beyond our mortal or earthly bodies. This uncertainty fuels our desire to do as much as possible before we die. Thusly, science fiction novels and games where the protagonist or several hundred members of a crew are “frozen” in a large storage area for their preservation so the mission can be completed catch our eyes and intrigue us. We may not know it, but subconsciously, a little spark in the back of our brains ignites and we begin to say, “Why can’t we cheat death?” The rational part of our brains however, keeps us from voicing the seemingly absurd desires. For no one can cheat death, can they?" Nice intro right? Yeah, don't lie to me. Anyway, here's another part, "The theory of cryonics stems from watching nature prepare organisms for cold temperature for millions of years. Trees have twigs and branches that can survive being frozen through direct exposure to liquid nitrogen after proper natural prepping. They create an “antifreeze” solution that turns the bark to glass when it reaches a certain temperature. Certain vertebrates such as frogs and salamanders have adapted to expose their internal organs to severe freezing temperatures and have recovered fully after thawing. The real heavyweights of cold temperature survival however are the insects that can survive -75 C and the fish that can operate at 1 degree below their freezing point." Cool no? You can be put in a freezer when you die and come back 200 years later or something. Alright this is all the time I have for right now. Comment and give me...FEEDBACK! Part two will be forthcoming! PEACE OUT!

DEEP THOUGHT #10/HOLIDAY RANT

HAPPY FREAKING NEW YEAR!!!!! What's up everyone this is Lord Avanton and I'm gonna be talking about the Holiday Season. Well not talk, rant. OK so the holidays absolutely SUCK! At least when you don't have any money. People fucking guilt trip you and you feel TERRIBLE ABOUT IT BECAUSE THEY GOT YOU AWESOME STUFF AND YOU CAN'T EVEN GET THEM A GIFT CARD!!!!! AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!! It's just a waste of time! Do you really have time to go out, buy stuff for people(some whom you don't like) and then go broke? Do you really have to? NO AND NO! It's just the American culture of "Me, me, me, me". And that STUPID tree takes forever to put up and take down. If you want  But I haven't even gotten to Halloween. So you want to go around and ask people who probably hate you for candy?!?!? How STUPID can you get? Like, really people, THINK! The candy could be doped, the apples could have razor blades in them still. The brownies could have marijuana. They still do that sometimes. And then there are the creepy houses that just don't open and you see silhouette's of people staring out at you. It's like "Dude. What the hell? How creepy can you freakin' GET?!?!?!? I'm just trying to get some damn candy!!" OK, so that's all I have for now. Comment and give me...FEEDBACK!!!

DEEP THOUGHT #9

Yo, what up. Lord Avanton here. Sorry I haven't posted in a while, as I've been busy. I'm gonna post about the brain. So my friend Antemortem made a post on her blog about Mind over Matter. I saw an interesting statement where she spoke about our brains' capacity. She was talking about how our brains could unlock more powers at intervals of 10%. I want to expound upon that. Say there's a way to actually unlock the rest of our potential. How do we get our narrow-minded race to look up from their tablets, video games, cell phones, and TV's to go and realize that they have a larger role to play? How do we turn on the 10% that we have so we can unlock the 20% and so on? People always talk about vibes, so what if you could actually feel them? Wouldn't you want to have a "early warning system" so that you could make decisions in a group more easily? You could read the feelings of the group and figure out the best course of action to take. Also, if it were possible that if your brain was more fully unlocked, you could have more powers or abilities like super-human strength or speed, maybe even flight and telekinesis. But our minds are so set inside our virtual reality and we don't want to change. It would take a tremendous display of power to convince the world that such abilities would be good thing. You would have to save hundreds of people from a natural disaster or save a country from a missile strike or something. We are so serious and skeptical that we have shut our minds in a box. I only hope that it can be unlocked before it is too late.

DEEP THOUGHT #8

Yo! What up everyone? It's me Lord Avanton coming to you with DEEP THOUGHT #8. This one's on PARENTS! I'm currently listening to the song "Talkin' 2 Myself" by Eminem and this is what it's like with some parents. You can't tell them ANYTHING because they'll overreact. My parents are a mix of that and the super-awesome nice parents who want to relate to you by giving you everything you want. Parents... where to begin? Ah, yes. Parents are cool because they want to help you. They may be annoying, but they want to help you. They want to be there for you, so therefore when they want you to tell them everything, its because they want to help you. But their's only one problem with that. THEY DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT SOLUTION! They think (bless their souls) that they have all of the answers because they were once children. Well guess what, THE TIMES HAVE CHANGED. There are some things that you can't answer completely. Sometimes we children have to take things into our own hands. Only sometimes, other times parents actually can help us. Alright my time is up. Comment and tell me your thoughts. Give me FEEDBACK! Alright, peace out.

DEEP THOUGHT #7

What's up everyone? This is Lord Avanton coming to you with DEEP THOUGHT #7. This one is one promises. I made a promise to a my girlfriend that I (unfortunately) was not be able to fulfill because of unforeseen family consequences. Luckily she's the forgiving kind that won't chop your head off if you don't keep a promise. I plan on getting her something for her birthday maybe some flowers or chocolates or some jewelery. I really hope for the last one, but I'm currently broke. DAMN YOU SCREEN ACTORS GUILD! Sorry, their's just not a lot of work for undiscovered child actors anymore. The TV shows stick with the tried and true so I never get a chance. OK Back to promises, Merriam-Webster defines a promise as: "a declaration that one will do or refrain from doing something specified." It is also binding, so if you break it, people won't trust you and trust is HUGE in the world. My family's foundation is built on trust. If you don't have trust you have nothing. Alright, my times up. Comment and give me your feedback.

Peace,

Lord Avanton

DEEP THOUGHT #6

Yo, what up? Today's DEEP THOUGHT is from the Western Section (Emotions) on love. Yeah, I'm feeling crazily in love and my girlfriend (new one) is driving my insane. Yeah it seems like i go through them like shirts in a growth-spurt. Sorry about not posting in FOREVER, but that's the way it goes over summer (sometimes). So the Beatles said "All You Need Is Love". Well let me tell you, that's  not true. I loved people but still felt empty. Maybe what they meant was, "All You Need is for Someone to Love You". That makes more sense. Love can also hurt as well. When you love someone but can't get over them, it hurts, a lot. I had an experience like that with a Stuck Up Girl (See DEEP THOUGHT 4) named Victoria. This past year, things got a little better. It seems like we're not on each other's hit lists anymore so I'm OK with that. For instance, I've liked my current girlfriend for years now but that didn't do anything at all. Sure it gave me a slightly warm feeling every time I saw her, but other than that, nothing. When I actually confronted her, and she accepted me, that's when I started to feel my heart beating faster every time I saw her. She looks good in everything I've seen her wear and she's the most graceful person I've ever seen in my life. Ok so I think I'm done here. See you all later.

DEEP THOUGHT #5.2

OK I'm back and its about COMPANIONSHIP again. I've decided to cut it to a 2-part series, because I really don't have 3 posts worth of material on this subject. OK so now onto being a good friend. I don't have many people that I consider to be a friend, but if you are my friend then you're pretty much family. I would do anything, even put my life on the line, if it was necessary to help a friend. Thus said I have about 3-5 friends. Three of them are girls. Two of them are members of this blog(hint hint wink wink). Yes, you two, you are my actual friends. I find everyone an acquaintance. If the school were attacked(extreme possibility) I would probably make sure they could get away with me. Likewise if they or anyone else was hurt, guess who would be going back to try and find them? Yeah, me. Screw the teachers trying to hold me back, they're my friends. Now some of you might be saying, "You're just saying that. You won't actually do that." You wish. I've done stuff you wouldn't believe. Have you grabbed a puppy off of the street when are car was bearing down on it? How about stopped your crazy, knife-happy cousin from thinking that your uncle's knives are blunt throwing knives.? Don't think so. So yeah, I've gone off topic, but I think that I've made my point. Now I would try to help other people I know. Just not in as drastic ways. OK my time's up. Comment. I want your feedback.

Peace,

Lord Avanton
