These will I'm sure be more or less then what I put in normal blog entries. It seems I have at least four blogs at this point, one of which at least I need to update more often. I will probably use this to keep updates on my forum and to write. When I'm not in extreamly busy mode because I'm working on a new project I write. I started a comic book script for a friend who bailed on my half way thought, so I never finished it. That one is archived, while I'm trying to get a movie script written up as I have all three parts of it pretty well formed in my head. I also do stories, mostly not short stories though I do have a few of those.
Heh, I have the horrible feeling this is going to mainly be my projects and self-promotion blog, which isn't all together a bad thing. So, why am I here at Zoints? Well I am here because I just started a new forum. Well in a way I just started it. As I want to start from a mostly clean slate and my fellow admins want to bring some of the stuff from the foiling forum over we are compromising. In my opinion it is now open, just very very unofficially. It doens't really have much to talk about, although that will be fixed soon as I start talking and trying to draw people in. Feel free to check it out, it is
Something Profound. It is my baby, and has been one of the few projects that has taken a lot of energy out of me at times.
Something Profound as a title is almost an internal joke as I have been wanting to name several things that. I think it would have made a perfect name for the Labyrinth that we made in Philosophy class. It was also a suggestion for my Marimba band, along with Wicked Lizard. We instead named ourselves Kufaranuka, which is a word from an African Dialect. The coinicedence that saying the name and it making me happy is just that coincedence even if it means Unabashed Joy.
The reason Something Profound has made it so well into my life and then became the name of the forum, is that is has a double meaning that compleatly represents the events in my life, in other's lives and represents the full scale of the forum I've been building, lost and have rebuilt, hopefully to keep this time. Something Profound is just that it is Profound and thoughtful, an idea that sparks thought and debate, but remains in itself Profound.
It is also sarcastic and casual as it is just something else in our lives. It is my theory that we are bombarded with so much information everyday that we lose sense with reality sometimes and it is all jsut sort of classifed into one catagory so that we can deal with it. So for it to just be something profound is to let it be casually slipped into one box without putting much thought into it or letting it get very deep into your thoughts, just the oppisite of Profound.
Origionally I wanted a place where normal people could relax and talk about their day to day life, while still having a chance to share their thoughts that they hope will inspire someone else to think or argue back, without the site putting too much emphisis on either.
Damn it's late, I gtg bed await me.
