He offered her a seat,
and o u t s t r e t c h e d his feet,
and grabbed an extra pen out his lower-level drawer.
Score!
He thought,
as the clues began to pour,
and he jotted down the facts
like a prospect on a tour;
She offered him the bank;
straight flowin' , like a mini reservoir,
not to mention
she was fashioned to the caliber

Numerology: I am Number Four
I want to see this movie. Not because I think it will amaze me with its cinematic quality (although it might), but for the subtle hints of a discourse on Numerology. 4 is the number representing Rational Thought, and the movie starts off in medias res with 1, 2, and 3 (symbolizing the Trinity) already dead. I don't want to jump the gun, but perhaps the underlying message of this movie is to prepare audiences for a more rational world. This isn't the first movie to explore the 9 mystical numbers of Numerology. The Pixar movie 9 was pretty amazing, as well. Check it out and look into some numerology.

A Thousand Watt Smile
This is a real product. On Sale. In stores. See, this is what I'm talking about. Childhood is becoming a mythological place, like Never Never Land. If children aren't smiling, maybe we should ask them what's wrong! THIS is what's wrong! Desensitization. Peep the description, courtesy of Neatorama.com:
She has a sick smile."This new invention just hooks on your child’s ears like glasses while another portion fits snuggly under the chin. Ok so what is the twist? How about electro shock treatment? Yes the portion under the chin sends a constant pulse of electricity through your child’s cheeks.Set the electro smile unit on high and snap that smile right into place, no more worries about grandma feeling the kids are not happy to see her. The sudden jolt of electricity in the jaw muscles forces the child to smile with complete body excitement giving grandma the appearance the kids have really missed her."
Scold’s Bridle: Bitch, Don't Talk Back!
The Science Museum in London, England has a new exhibit that explores the evolution of medicine, starting with medieval times. I saw this picture of this16th century "remedy" for outspoken women and screamed for dramatic effect. Apparently, women who spoke to much, whether it be that they had something to say or were saying to much in the nature of gossiping, had to where this contraption and parade themselves around town.
Scary. I guess this is the watered down version of the "bits" they used to make slaves where during Colonial America for talking back to "Massah." Here's the description that accompanies the bridle in the museum:
"Time spent in the bridle was normally allocated as a punishment by a local magistrate. The custom developed in Britain in the 1500s, and spread to some other European countries, including Germany. When wearing the mask it was impossible to speak. This example has a bell on top to draw even more attention to the wearer, increasing their humiliation. It was used until the early 1800s as a punishment in workhouses."
Not only do I think the stars for the marvel of modern science, I also think this should serve as a constant reminder to appreciate your voice.
