Reaching Out

As humans, we are always reaching for something. Whether it is the cookie jar, or the stars, mankind always seems to reach out for what is just out of our reach. However, it is my belief that if we really could obtain so much knowledge by reaching, we would get bored very quickly, because without the persuit of happiness, how can be be truly happy?

Yellowstone Lessons

Today, when we visited the Old Faithful Geyser, I was reminded of the first time I visited. I was told that I might not see it erupt again, because a thin white layer was covering it every time it erupted. I was also thinking about the fact that eventually, the Big Dipper would change. It seems so sad that people in the year 30000 will have so many different landmarks than we do. (if this post seems random, i'm tired)

Maturity

Sometimes, I think that I am a bit too immature. I like comic books, ponies, etc. Then I remind myself that the world's defenition of mature and my standards are very different. I think that they are the ones who are immature. They just don't want to admit it.

Hero Mashups

Recently, I got a comment asking whether there have been any super hero mashups, like SuperIronBatman. Actually, people on the internet have created several mashups with all sorts of heroes. The internet people call this: "Amalgams". There are too many examples to count, but some of my favorite examples are:

Spider-Bat (Spider-Man and Batman)


Thunderbird (Hawkman and Thor)


Daredevil Lantern (Daredevil and Green Lantern)


Iron Bat (guess who?)

My Favorite Superhero

If I was told to give you my favorite superhero, you would expect me to say Spider-Man, Batman, the entire Justice League or the Avengers, but in actuality, my favorite hero is: The Black Panther!

He has gone up against the likes of Klaw, a being made of sound, the Man-Ape, a-er-man who wears an ape costume, and his wife, Storm, a weather goddess. If this person doesn't have his own series by now, I will be sad.

So...Awesome!

How do I take images and save them as desktop backgrounds?

At my school, most of the people say that I am one of the best artists in the school. However, yesterday, we started drawing scenes from the epic poem Beowulf and this one kid drew the demon, Grendel, way better than I did. I sometimes complain about my lack of artistic talent, and the usual advice I get is "keep trying". It's slow, but I think I'm getting better.
