So I got up to make coffee today. For the first time in my life I watched it perculate. It was very fascinating to watch. Because when it first starts dripping it isn't very dark and it makes weird puddle patterns on the bottom. But as more pours it gets darker and the smell starts off hitting you in waves until it just fills the room with a delicious scent of french vanilla brew. I am in love with coffee. I don't start my day without it. Also cigarettes. Two staples that are needed to start my morning. Today and tomorrow are my last two days of this stretch where I am working 14 out of 15 days. I went to my Aunt's and Uncle's yesterday. they are very very rich. We had dinner over there when I was done work. I brought some Inniskillin International Series Shiraz. Which we had with huge racks of spare ribs. My ncle set the barbeque on fire which was amusing. They also where having a conversation about the stock market which i eagerly joined in on because it is kind of my obsession to know what is going on in the world of money. I got into talking about stock market propping and how that is why generally if you are already rich is when you make money. When rich people pull out of investments the stock drops so much that the little guy loses all his money. My cousin's fiancee also told me his friend once a year goes to the bank and maxes out his line of credit which is fourty thousand bucks. Then invests it in Petro Canada. Last year he took his family to Portugal on what he made. That is risky as hell. But I admire the man for doing it. Using debt for investments is generally what people would tell you is a bad idea. But it is working for him. Barrels of oil are pretty cheap right now at fifty nine dollars per. Usually it is around seventy seventy five when I see it. But often when you see the price of oil go down you won't see it reflected in the price of gasoline. But gas is cheaper then it has been for a while. So it is reflecting it this time. One thing I know is that you don't want to invest in North America. The economy isn't doing so well here. Not near as well as it is in China anyway. You can make a lot of money in the stock market if you just keep an eye on the world. Every little thing can affect it. Political unrest. Goods being stolen and hijacked. Ships needing repair part way through delivering. Terrorist threats etc. All of it afffects the market. Also watching where people are putting there money and finding out why. If I had a good chunk of cash right now I would be putting it into China Vista. It is a well diversified stock so even if one or two things went down you would have ten to thirteen others that are probably doing well enough for you to still make money. That stock has made over 1200 percent in the last ten years. People who got in there early made a fucking shit load of money. I wonder how it will affect the world if we figure out how to time travel. If we could go back in time, everyone would be using it to get rich stop deathss and murders. Fuck would this be one fucked up world. But it would also be amusing to see the effect it would have on us. Because everyone can't be rich. You could even go back in time and kill people that fuck things up now. Like killing Bush Senior. That way he couldn't be President nor his shit head of a son. We could save Kennedy. We could not build the Trade Centers. We could give the Indians better guns and then we couldn't have taken there land and settled here. I pose a question to everyone who is reading this. I want you to reply to this question in the comments section. If you could travel back in time, what would you do and where would you go to change things you didn't like about the now? How would you think you would be most affective? I am curious to know. I am sure we have all thought of it at one point or the other. But I think maybe most of us think about it in the field of personal gain. I want to know what you would do that you would think would be the good of mankind.

I was worried at first when you were talking about stock markets and shit, I was thinking, 'what do I have to say about the stock market?' But now we come to the question of what I would change to make the most influence to humanity? Shit, the first thing that comes to mind is going back and making that monkey climb back into the tree.
Otherwise I'd go back to the scene of the biggest coverup in human history and uncover it. Just to see what all the fuss was about. But I don't know what that coverup is, because it was covered up THAT well.
Hope this adds some insight.
I would destroy instantaneous communication. That way, we'd actually have to put a little effort into spreading the bullshit around that we see as so necessary.
