Typewriter Pleasure, 5 September 2013



The rewards of typing on a type writer, the noise, the feeling of to resistance each key has to being pressed and how it gleefully stamps the page to show your decisive pressing of the key. 

How once the line is filled it snaps back and reels with a ding to the other side of a wonderfully textured piece of paper.

The pleasure of placing a page in a box, once you have typed it. The reward given by a machine which works with you to allow you to create that which exists in your head.

Not one you must fight for each word. Or that corrects your mistakes and interrupts your thinking because this word must be spelled right! And now! Not the reprehensible screens which punish you for all of your creative efforts! Yet give no reward, no work to touch, or feel. Simply odd contortions of your mouth and face as you struggle to understand how you have wronged this piece of electric machinery... Of why it's creator felt it so important to halt your creativity in exchange for accuracy.

Well to you I say fooewy!

It is what it is...

It's the absolute truth, at the end of the day it doesn't matter.  Almost nothing really does. I have one life, one time around and one chance to experience this world.  The people in it and everything it has to offer. I've lived my life by this philosophy since I was young and I probably will until I die. Life is about the experience, we have laws so we don't fuck up someone else's.  Theres plenty of people who can do whatever.  Only I am suited to be me, and live my life. So it is what it is.

That is okay, so there was once upon a time a girl. She was a very pretty girl, beautiful even and didn't know her own strength or weakness. One day she met a boy, see she'd had something to fill in her life. An empty spot of sorts a place she could entrust to anyone and so she felt she wasn't enough for anyone. She was tall and blessed by man gifts, whether they were for others to bare witness to or not was for her to choose.  She never felt like she was enough, but something went wrong when she met the boy. It wasn't the kind of eye's or gaze that she'd been used to. She was used to be seen as something, she had always been something, always people knew her and she soon realized that no one really did. The boys eyes weren't exactly like other people's, you could see the desire in other people's. You could see them reaching for a brass ring, they wanted something, always wanted something from her.  It wasn't like living a life, i...

My point with the water though I tend to focus on fluoride

The federal legal limit for uranium is set at 30 micrograms per liter (corresponding to parts per billion), but utilities can also report uranium in picocuries per liter (pCi/L), which is a measure of radioactivity in water. EWG translated all uranium results to pCi/L using a conversion factor developed by the EPA. With this conversion approach, the limit of 30 ppb corresponds to 20 pCi/L. Drinking water with this much uranium would cause more than 4.6 cancer cases in a population of 100,000. California set a public health goal for uranium of 0.43 pCi/L.
