The Circle

There was a day I walked alone and shed the ballast waste
And from the air there amassed a solemn, darkened taste
Of weaker days and cradled months and for long did they stay
Until at last they gripped and slipped a rope with ending fray

From there I walked in unison with sinner, politic, and saint
I scathed the witching stone and scraped from slate to slate
And when I came upon a clear I surmised a brightened path
But yet my feet would not turn, they would not beat the path

And so again, I walked alone and yet a different fear I tried
Walking in the shade and leaning side to side
Look! The circle widens greatly, but a light and bright still breathe
And the endlessness of this self walk has lead me to believe

There must exist an endless prairie of green, peace, and solitude
Where one can unload their greatest burden to serve the multitude
For the sinner, politic, and saint that wander near it's face
All of them long to end the circle, to find purpose and their place

Give Me Room

The days go on and still there is no room or time for what people asked me to do and I never got around to doing. I woke up from my bed to write this out of a compelling feeling of incompletion. Incomplete because there are so many things I want to do in my life. There are so many people that I could help or gain insight from. My boys could raise their candor with me and my wife and daughter could confide in me at will. There are so many mistakes I could be making right now. Experience isn't primary, but it's the catalyst of distant and avoided moments that I usually find myself tipp-toeing away from. I can't say I'll feel this away again for a while, but if I don't I truly hope I read this post and just drift into it's reflective sea.

I'm always asking myself if I can make a difference before I die. I think that's all I want.

He nose that

My right nostril is flaring red. I think it's chapped. I went to the store and got some nostril stick and now my right nostril is red and shiny. I should have gotten the non glaze nostril stick with aloe. The aloe would have sunk into my shedding right nostril pours and would have codderized them. Today is the day that the nostril will shut off.

Crampcolonstomisticly Beacon Bodies

I have cramps like superman has crytonitic body meetings. You are correct, they do not happen often, but when they do it's like trying to fit a small semi in your liver or cheek bone; it's not going to happen. I tell you not any lies, but the truth and negative false testimony that a spleen popping in my castle of a body could do less damage. Abraham Lincoln said it best when he said, "pennies saved are pennies that you've earned". I swallowed a couple and saved them from the ground. I did earn them and then I returned them to the ground from wenst they came.

It should be obvious to anyone that it is good, that to eat sharp objects at times. This is similar to the turkey who eats rocks. I'm tuffer (Tuffy-bike tuff) than any turkey, so I think that we can stop praying and start believing that we are incredible holders of strange digestive thingies. Amen and good night.

Crazy night(s)

Last night I danced on my bed and threw pillows in the air. It gave the impression of wild living, but yet said that I had a strong personality. Clearly the a coorelation can be drawn between the two. If you take into account the jumping on your bed with your shirt off looks crazy and that you normally don't jump on your bed with your shirt off then one can assume wild living. Everyone already assumes normal or cautious living, but seldom do we see wild living like I lived last night.

The less convincing part is that throwing my pillows in the air was a sign of a strong personality. Who else throws their pillows in the air?! First people who are sick of them. This is clearly not the case since I am poor and people know this, so they can only conclude that I threw them will jumping because I was making a statement of "pillow freedom". "Pillow freedom" can often be misconstrued and I don't want to get into details, but the true meaning is caring enough about your artsy body to throw the pillow where you will. It is both efficient and artsy.

I did not mention the 1000 kick contest I had with myself while watching internet television series. This is a tactic used to strengthen the underpart of the legs while laying on your belly watching TV. Every commercial you should try to do up to 100 belly kicks. This will save your life and money. You will not as obese as you already (Check your BMI or body mass index, no matter what the doctor says your fat) are and secondly you don't have to go to the gym.

My thoughts in the Market Spiral

Food Market

Stage 1

People are buying at will and on average are almost spending more than they make. Americans spend every penny.

Any restaurant, convenience, or grocery store.

Stage 2
"Current Stage"

People are not planning for a depression, they are grudgingly spending every penny until they have no more pennies not realizing that things are not getting better.

Companies that profit:

Fast Food
Restaurants without waiters
Low Cost providers for grocery or closest grocery store
People drastically buy less at the convenience store.

These companies feel they are making a profit, but it will be short lived when all money stops coming in.

Stage 3

There is no credit and banks/credit card companies realize that the majority cannot pay so they stop spending. There is a great focus on survival and getting back to the essentials of life.

Companies that profit:

Owned Farms
People are walking. Lowest cost grocery store and seeking produce from their backyards.

I really think there will be a return to deep thought. When this is said and done there will be a less shallow generation; a greatful generation. People will know what they believe and why they believe. They will understand the value of life and the value of having very little. Some won't be able to withstand it. If I am stripped of everything I will have no choice but to look to God and focus on what he has for me to do.

Economics, twinkies, and hoho's

In Economics we are talking about twinkies and hoho's. If the price of twinkies goes up what does that do to the market for hoho's? Hoho's are cleary a substitute good and not a compliment. So if the price of twinkies goes up the demand for hoho's increases which then causes an increase the price and quantity of hoho's.

Let's suppose that the price of sugar increases. What does this do to the market for twinkies? Sugar is an input of twinkies since one cannot make twinkies without sugar and if they do they will probably see a downward trend in demand for their product. So since sugar is an input of twinkies it will effect the supply of twinkies. The supply of twinkies will decrease leading to an increase in price and a decrease in the quantity of twinkies produced.

What happens to the market for twinkies when the population income increases? This supposedly depends on whether you consider twinkies to be a normal or inferior good. Since twinkies are relatively cheap I think they are an inferior good. Since they are an inferior good and the general population income increases this would cause the demand for twinkies to decline. In so doing the price and quantity of twinkies decreases. This will cause a surplus in the twinkie market.

What happens to the market for twinkies if the price of twinkies goes up or down? Nothing happens. The price moves up and down the same demand curve.

These examples assume that all else is held constant.
