Michael Jackson is doing his final curtain call by doing 10 concerts in London. He says "this is it" no more after that. Is this supposed to be a come back? Because I'm not seeing come back when he says it's his final curtain call. Why is he doing this? Money! He's broke because of all his financial problems due to his court issues a couple of years ago.
He has to do 10 concerts so he can have the money to buy a new Neverland in London because his Neverland has been sold and all of his possessions are being auctioned.
I really do feel sorry for him. He was a gorgeous black man once upon a time and now he's a gross skeletal white woman. I really don't understand what is going through his mind. His nose is so small and it looks like he doesn't have a nose. I don't want to trash Mike because I like him but come on dude, stop doing weird shit. You are a very talented person but your BDD is way out of control.
I have BDD also but I don't have the money to fix my issues. The only issue I have is my weight so all I'd need is a treadmill and possibly a personal trainer and I'm done. Maybe go to the hair club for men and get some contact lenses but that's it lol.
I wish Michael Jackson the best of luck with his final 10 curtain calls and I hope he makes enough money so he can be comfortable even though our shitty economy is spreading like wild fire to the rest of the world. Good luck taking all the English peoples money away from them, making them homeless so you can get rich again.

Eye Video Camera
Filmmaker shows off eye-mounted wireless video camera
Check this out. This filmmaker invented a eye mounted wireless video camera that he can plans to use to film a documentary. He lost an eye as a child and so he has a prosthetic eye.
This would have a very good use for blind people, that is if it had a chip that attached to the brain so that the blind person can see everything that the bionic eye can see. They could remove the blind eyes and put in 2 prosthetic eyes with the camera installed into them. I don't see how you would be able to move the eyes though so I don't know how that would work. Although, they could just remove 1 eye because you probably only need 1 good eye to see.
I can see some other uses for this like for example video making, since it's wireless you can have it recording to a hard drive in your pocket like the size of a USB drive then when you are finished recording you can put it on your computer to edit.
But the con side of that is you could be intimate with someone and they won't know that you are video taping and then you could put it all over the internet and that person would be humiliated forever.
But, I can also see a good side. If you are robbed at gunpoint or maybe even killed the police can look at the video to see who robbed and or killed you.
Piracy would be so much easier with this too. People would go to the movies and be video taping it with their eye, they'd have to keep real still, don't sneeze. Then put it out there for all to see. Same with concerts. It's bad enough that there are too many pirates out there stealing money from the movie industry by selling illegal DVDs, I can just imagine that they would find out that they are using a bionic eye then they would have an eye scanner all over the place so you can't record. But what if you are blind? What then?
There are many pros and cons to this and I'm not exactly sure if this will ever happen but who knows, it might be sooner than you think. I'm sure it will cost several thousands of dollars and it will only go to those who can't see and there probably won't be a hard drive for video taping but more a chip attached to the brain for blind people to see. That's fair enough. If they knew it could be used for illegal purposes then they would become illegal to have very fast.

No Energy Today
I was woken up by the doorbell today at like 10 something am cause this guy wanted to mow our lawn since we have let it go lol. I had already planned on mowing it today and so Chip told him we were going to do it today. I got in the shower to wake up then sat and watched TV for maybe 20 minutes and decided OK, I'm going to go mow the lawn.
I did our tenants lawn then I did the front of our lawn but not the side, I filled 1 green can with just all the cut grass but I really didn't feel like I had enough energy to finish. Besides that the lawn mower kept stopping and it won't turn back on now so I'm going to leave that to deal with tomorrow. The green cans go out tomorrow night so I have a full 24 hours to get it done (git-r-done hehe).
I went to the kitchen to make a ham sandwich for lunch and I got all the dishes from yesterday that I had no energy to do plus there is a dryer full of t-shirts that I have to fold and a washer with whites I need to dry. I really need to get some energy. I don't know what's wrong with me, I just feel very lazy today.
You know how when it's a crappy gray day outside with storm clouds and you tend to feel depressed and it makes you lazy? That's how I feel but the sun is shining and it's nice outside. I don't know why I'm feeling this way.
I also want to read but don't feel like it and I have to watch the first 3 episodes of Dollhouse on Hulu so I can talk about that.
Maybe I'll go make a latte. I'll have to go to Albertson's on my bike to get some creamer because a latte isn't a latte with just milk, it tastes so much better with flavor. Yeah, I'll go do that, I bet you then I will have so much energy I won't know what to do with myself.

Distrations
How is it that some people can read like the newspaper or a magazine with the TV on and people talking nearby? I don't read the newspaper because it's just too much information to read. I'd rather watch the news to know what's happening in the world. I can barely type this without having to look at the TV.
Chip can sit there reading the newspaper with the news on the TV lol. I try to read my book and every little noise distracts me. If there is no noise then the silence is deafening and that is distracting.
I have ADHD so every little thing distracts me. I am able to read a book if I try hard enough to ignore all the little things but it's hard. Especially when the ice cream truck goes by. The whole time I was reading the Harry Potter novels I was so into them that I was able to ignore noises but there came a point that I had to buy all the Harry Potter soundtracks and it made reading easier. I would try to hum the main titles in my head while reading, it would help me but I had to buy the soundtrack so I wouldn't have to think lol.
I'm reading The Source of Magic which is the 2nd book in the Xanth series and I had to go outside today to read it because the TV in the living room was just too loud and the lighting in my room sucks so bad but then it started to sprinkle. Yeah I was under a roof but the rain drops were coming down so hard on the fiberglass roof it was too DISTRACTING! LOL

Skype Used on TV
A couple of weeks ago I go into the living room and Oprah Winfrey is on the TV and I see these tall TV screens (widescreen tv's turned on their sides) and you see women in these screens. At first I was like what the heck? They have audience members in giant sideways widescreen TV's now?
Then Oprah was asking them questions and they showed them talking but this time in the regular size on my screen and on the side of the screen it said "Skype". These women were in the audience via webcam lol. I thought that was genius that Oprah is incorporating this into her show.
But just this morning I woke up and go into the living room and Fox News is on and they are talking about the GM problem and they show this guy on a tv screen and on the left side of the screen I see "Skype" LOL.
The Skype streams seem to be pretty fast, a lot faster than cell phone video calls and I can see this being used in place of regular news cameras. Pretty cool.

California Supreme Court
Today was the day that EQCA stood in front of the California Supreme Court which by the way is in San Francisco to over turn Prop 8. I didn't watch it from the beginning but as soon as I realized it was going to probably be on TV we quickly looked for it and watched it.
I think we only got to see maybe 2 hours of it but it was quite informative. Well, boring really. It was very informative for those who actually understand what they were talking about. I frankly didn't know who was for or against it because they weren't even speaking English. They were all talking lawyer English which I don't understand. I would need to go to Harvard just to get what they were talking about.
The oral arguments ended and they left and we changed the channel to Fox News to see what they were saying about it which wasn't really much. Kenneth Starr was one of the people talking and I wasn't sure which side he was on. Kenneth Starr is the guy who wrote that report which was bigger than 3 of the last Harry Potter novels stacked on top of each other about Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky.
I did see Gloria Allred but she didn't talk at all and I was hoping she would.
One of the things I did understand is that Prop 8 isn't just about saying gay people can't get married but it's saying that it's OK to allow discrimination into our constitution and I don't think that any discrimination should be allowed into our constitution.
Anyway, I'm done thinking about it. I hope they come back with something positive for all the gay people in California.
EDIT: LMAO ok, I'm dumb. We just saw a news story on Fox News and they showed a little clip of Kennth Starr talking and he clearly said that he is against gay marriage. We sat there watching everything that he said and at no time did we hear him say what we just saw him say. That's how much we didn't understand anything that they were talking about, we couldn't even decypher when they were talking in plain English.
And there was a "man" named Shannon P. Minter. He was bald just like I am on top but apparently he lived his life as a woman for the first 36 years of his life. How could we have missed that? Good god, talk about ADD. You would've thought that I would've caught that. He was so convincing as a man. Wow, good for him.
