Super jail

My idealized prison system would be one like Super Jail from the appropriately named show SuperJail. One where criminals are ensnared and transported to by a flying deathbot. Then subjected to a hellish land where they are frequently maimed or murdered in prison bloodbaths frequently due to the Jailbot's homicidal tendencies and the Warden's miscalculated plans. For the sake of the topic I will put away my idealization of a prison system for something more rendered in reality and feasibility. Prisons definitely should exist, so we can house the horrors of society. We can't kill them all because we probably can't afford the body bags and as a society we can not bank on black and white morality. A murderer of the worst and most proved kind should have his or her life taken as well. A thief should be jailed and stripped of the stolen goods and fined. Criminals should be doing time. Time is the ultimate punishment or currency as it can not be payed back. It's not buyable or sellable, you have it for as long as you are afforded it by Father Time or Flying Spaghetti Monster. Time affords the existing with rotting. Murder should get the most time. The most vile of murderers and body counts should be given life in prison or the injection. Murderers of different wrongs should be given time appropriate to their wrongs for less or more. Thieves of anything should be given a moderate amount of time. I figure a thief taking belongings and property is redeemable. A fair sentence should be awarded based on the amount stolen and even none if the crime is quite mundane. A fine could substitute a sentence for small thefts. There are exceptions for grand thefts such as Madoff's schemes. I wonder, if technology arises could he get the necessary cybernetic enhancements and gene therapy to live beyond he sentence and get out of jail? Of course those are only dreams of the future but it's a pondering thought due to my interest in future technological advancements and transhuamism. Rapists the most vile of vile should be given the time and treatment of murderers and given a lot of time behind bars. Many crimes are given fair justice in the prison system and I feel no reason to change them. The only problem I see is the current apprehension and process we apprehend criminals. It's severely flawed and poorly vitalized. I do think we should give some criminals of extremely good behavior and of petty crime an early release. If they are fit and properly evaluated I don't see too much harm in letting them go. Certainly murderers and sex offenders wouldn't be let go early. I figure it's better they be subjected to the possibly more hellish real world then being in the penal system sucking from Uncle Sam's good will.

Wild Card: Nerdy time

The nerd rage inside me due to recent events must come out. I this past Saturday have watched Spike TV's Video Game Awards. I'm sorry I watched the abomination that is Spike TV's embarrassing travesty the Video Game Awards this past Saturday. It like an ulcer has left a hole in my stomach. I can no longer keep my feelings of contempt for the VGAs in no longer. I am so embarrassed by saying I have even watched the VGA that writing about it might lead me to emotional collapse. The VGAs are a poorly thought embarrassment to the Video Game and Geek culture. Spike on a yearly basis has served my family the nerds an oh so decadent platter of feces. The nerds my family if not made aware before took my abandoned on Mt. Olympus baby self in. They raised me to love comics, games, and fantasy. You may see members of my family in the wild or at nerd dens which are known to many as GameStop or comic books shops. This all aside the point that Spike has embarrassed my family once again. My family has been disgraced continually and is continued to be mis appropriated by lousy portrayals and this the Spike VGAs. The Spike VGAs should be called the Spike Video Game Advertisements because that is what it is. It is a horrible marketing event that if not for the corporate bought trophies would be fined for false advertising by calling it an award show. The award part of the show takes the cheap seats of the show this year more than any other year. It is not the Oscars where the awards are the focal point. It is the polar opposite, the announcements are the main point of the event. Why can't I get a on TV VGA with merit. There is such events like ones at GDC or CES but not to be watched on the holy television .  The awards when actually given their spotlight are just sad. The categories are atrocious and lacking and half of them are not even broadcasted. Any ones that actually recognize recipients with actual talent are given at the not televised pre show. Awards such as best voice actor which was full of talented nominees are shafted without true recognition. Look now at the award itself, the aptly named vector monkey. It is of course a monkey with a crown. How does that quite relay to gaming? Maybe the studio of the year picking the awards color in Spike's mind gameifys it enough. The award winners are oh so democratically decided. The viewers vote for the winners. If only that were true, a panel of judges decides the winners. The panel is composed of developers, publishers, and gaming mag employees. Of course that's a stretch admitably, the winners are no doubt probably bought by the corporations. Otherwise if the deserved actually won we would not see crap getting a crown year after year. Next, the celebs of the ceremony is where the real magic is. The host was Zachary Levi of Chuck fame. He is admitably a good choice being a gamer, VA for a few games, and operates a game merch site. Though looking at the rest, one will not find people of appropriateness. Sure we get gaming royalty like Miyamoto of Legend of Zelda and Hideo Kojima of Metal Gear. We get Seth Green who may or not be appropriate. Beyond that we get your filler celebrities. We get the cast of Workaholics of Comedy Central making crappy jokes. We get dumbfounded model Brooklyn Decker, who seemed like a deer in headlights speaking her minds. We even got my favorite the warlock himself Charlie Sheen there, but how is he even related to gaming? Is Charlie next to get a Warlock class for WoW or something? These people are there why? How are they even remotely appropriate or related to gaming? I must give credit to Spike for not parading around porn stars like they did previous years. Atleast they have done that to give the show a disguise of class. They did invite some greats like Mark Hamil and Tara Strong who are known also for being Luke Skywalker or the Joker and Harley Quinn respectively.  Where do I hear they were? If their own tweets and reports to be trusted, they were sited in the far back bleachers. That's right, they put Luke Skywalker and Harley in the nose bleeds. What a disgrace that talent is benched and Hulk Hogan is given the front row. Why can't there be more gaming celebs at the VGAs? It's not like non gamers are tuning in by the score to watch and won't know the people. Bring in Bioshock head Ken Levine or Insomniac Games's Ted Price. Both known well and respected in the community and would give the VGAs merit. Even previous years's Samuel L. Jackson is a choice than models, warlocks, porn stars, and crappy tv stars. Bring out the head of Team Ninja who made Ninja Gaiden, he could provide some actual knowledge and actual jokes to the ceremony after of course he's done cursing and yelling. A new aspect due to its liveness on both coasts is their consequence for too long of a speech. The Oscars had a melody played when a guest over extended his or her allotted time. At the VGAs we get a costplayed soldier who grabs the guest and proceeds to "t-bagg" them. Which is funny in thought but should this be the representation of the culture we get? It's funny but crass and even though we see a COD dev running off at the chime and another being brung down and subjected to a much deserved t-bagg it's not at all a good way to give the culture a face. The thing given the most time wasn't the nominees but the gaming announcements and trailers. When the announcements overide your memory of the actual awards you know there's a problem. I can tell you ever trailer and game shown but not one winner of an award. It's such crap I guess they felt instead of improving stuff they would  add more and more videos to drown out the laughable own stage events. The nominees get 3 seconds to give thanks but Diablo 3 a game even PC players have stopped caring about gets 8 minutes of airtime to show its intro sequence. Even Zelda getting the first Hall of Fame spot was given about 9 seconds and another 3 for Miayamoto to receive a trophy for his involvement. Why can't they afford the deserving actual time and give bits time to be funny and not be rushed along? This is supposed to be an awards show not a montage of upcoming crap. Give me something sensible, something not embarrassing for my respective culture. It's not like they even tried to be an awards show this year, previous years even if they didn't even have more nominees actually accepting awards they at least had more mentioned and announced. The only person who tried was Hideo Kojima who bravely tried to speak English which is not his native language. I hope it will be better next year, it's not even that hard to fix. Cut back a little on gaming montages, no nothing celebs, poor jokes, and I'll thought bits. How hard is that? It will save money in the end when you think about it, why hire the warlock when you can pay pennies to game developers and ezecs that the game community will actually want to see. Things won't change though, it's the Spike network after all. They give us stereotypical male gems that only drunk homophobic frat boys would like. I hope one year to get a respectable ceremony that celebrates gaming properly with at least a touch of class. Maybe next year we will have a slightly less abominable abomination.

3 Week Retreat

Where in the world is Carmen Sandiago? Maybe I'd find her on my travel. I think my first stop would be Japan. I've always found myself attracted to Japan's culture and sights. Their old crossed with western design would be fun to see. The place brims with culture and history. The generation gap of hyper transitional ism and hyper relaxed individualism would be cool to see. I would travel from the peaceful mountains to the bustling cities. Id of course with unlimited funds find myself in high rise and expensive hotels that define luxury. With unlimited money couldn't I just buy the place ala Howard Hughes? I would try my best to take it all in. I find myself wandering the forests and nature hopefully finding upon those trees with the white flowers one sees so much in documentaries. I would pay respect and if possible see some of the destruction left from the disaster. I would visit the museums and tours seeing, hopefully I'd see the crafts and gear of the feudal era and the samurai. I as to my interests find myself visiting Sony and Nintendo stores and true form manga shops. Might aswel try the new foods while I stay there, if I were to try sushi I might aswel go the authentic root. For hilarity's sake I might purchase from the fabled Japanese thong underwear vending machines. Before I leave I would travel finally to Mt. Fiji  to get some perspective on life and think about my time. Then off to the airport for my next stop.
To Spain I would go for my second week. I've always wanted to go there, in all it's beauty. I would love to specifically see the museums and possible remnants of the Spanish Civil War's propaganda and left over wreckage from it's history. Might aswel go skateboarding while I'm there, supposedly they are very friendly to them. Barcelona is known for its good skate spots. Maybe I could test out my Spanish linguistic abilities while I'm there. I'd hope to take in the warm weather while there.  Find myself upon authentic Spanish foods and restaurants. Admire the architecture. Maybe ask the Spaniards of their view of the world and America. Visit the old historical Spanish castles. Watch bullfighting and soccer. Then off to relax at the beaches and hotels and them "el aero puerto" for my next stop.
My last stop is Greece, a fascinating land of history. Beautiful land and relics left mostly untainted by modernism. I would visit all the old historic sites and regions of Athens and Sparta. Purchase some old world replicas and items. Visit the beautiful beaches and land. Fawn over the beautiful Greek women. Try some Greek foods and restaurants. Hopefully not get robbed in the post economy hell scape cities. Take some time to reflect and rest at the resorts and beaches. Maybe bag me some souvenirs for the family and end my time there with the nightlife. I would then head home enlightened by my travels and maybe appreciate my own culture more.

Comfort food

Comfort food, a most puzzling desire. I eat for comfort but it makes me sick and unhappy in the end. I have multiple comfort foods, all do horrible things to my stomach. My first comfort food that is not exactly the norm for comfort food is pancakes. I love pancakes there is a great allure to their fluffy golden form. The pancakes command to me "render thy syrup unto Caesar". Their soft and sweetness is soothing and calming. I have them multiple times per week and usually never part of breakfast but dinner. It is very soothing and tasteful and reminds me of better times when I eat them.
Another one of my comfort foods is McDonald's. My horrible obsession with their foods will bring me to my death one day. I frequent their ranch wraps, fries, and McFlurrys. I feel great and horrible when eating the food with a tinge of self satisfaction. It makes me feel slobbish but good shuffling food into my mouth by the handful. Wraps jammed into my jaws and fries by the handful ferried in with Oreo McFlurry breaking down the fries trapped in my throat. The food is irresistible but of low quality of course but when the sin of gluttony takes over it all tastes great. The food is great for those horrible days when you just want to scream and end up silencing yourself with food. I feel almost like those out of shape Greek leaders who would lounge with food being served to them. Of course I feed myself but I imagine it feels similarly good and comforting. I'm also a fan of Burger King's burgers, they are my ultimate go to food when I'm down. It's almost like James's Franco in Pineapple Express when he's on the swing crying and eating the burger. Burger King's burgers to me are medicinal, something about the sometimes not burnt to a crisp meat that makes me feel so happy. I just jam it in and it makes all the sorrows go away. I think that's the sign of a problem but a man must be allowed a vice or two. That is only human nature of course. Its in the end horrible unhealthy food that I should not be eating. It's only some chemical allusion that the food makes my woes go away. There is no problem solved me eating these horrible disgusting foods but while I'm failing to get to the real problem I'm going to enjoy it immensl

Mother Govenor

my family member that I think would be good to hold public office would be my mom. She would be most appropriate at the governor level I think. She would be fair in her political stylings being somewhat of a moderate. She would fall more right wing in economics and cost cutting measures. She would fall more liberally in personal liberties and rights. She embodies some good qualities of a leader, she is trustworthy, dependable, productive, and passionate in her beliefs. She is not a pushover and doesn't falter when facing opposition. She tells the truth which not many people could handle but possibly would be applauded for doing so. She always does the right thing. She has good ethics and sensibility without any truly odd ball ideologies and ideas. She can be relied on and I think would do a great deal of good for this state. She would be commended for her policies and her sensibility. She would not only do a good duty to the state but also provide a good face to women in politics in general. She would not be an embarrassment such as Sarah Palin or Michelle Bachman but a new respected face for not only women in politics but politics in general. She would be famed a slasher of excess and the unnecessary. She would cut unproductive and corrupted programs across the board. She would cut inflated salaries and propose tax increases for the wealthiest of the wealthy. She would have a reinterpreted objectivism that relies a person is only entitled to their fair share if one has worked for it. Programs would be reevaluated and changed to fit her stipulations and ideas of people's entitlement of care. She would fight for the middle class and hopefully like the presidency of FDR they would fight for her. No surrender or apologies are to be had to her opposition. She would a little similar to Govenor Christie as she would be brutal and clear to the populace about her beliefs and would exhibit a similar nerve and gal. She would be unscathed by any insult or comment. Her thick skin sways any attempt to falt her. She would be aggressive in debates and meetings and would show her gall and spirit. Her viscous temper would give her the ability to lead and fight for her spot and support. She would be fierce on her media appearances. She would be a new voice and new face of politics and ideologies in politics and I believe would make a great governor.
