Minor Mutants
July 10, 2010When I watched the various X-Men movies, it struck me that there would have to be some mutants with significantly lesser powers that Dr. Xavier would have taken in to his school. Not everybody can turn completely invisible, go through walls, control the elements or blast death rays out of their eyes. Here are some possibilities of mutants whose powers might seem less useful for a superhero, but I am confident would exist in the X-Men Universe:
- Fast Blinker: Can blink really fast
- The Urinator: Can pee extraordinary distances
- The Waterer: Can make it rain lightly, in limited spaces (good for gardening)
- Eerie Ear: Can make his left ear invisible
- The Hand Shaker: Has a really great hand shake – I mean REALLY great!
- Rubber Arms: Can, at will, make her arms all rubbery
- The Nose: Has 3 nostrils
- The Shedder: Can instantly shed all of his body hair
- Operetta: Can sing opera… backwards!
- The stacker: Unusually good at stacking things up in a neat pile
- The Decorator: Possesses an uncanny sense of style
- The Strange Eater: Can drink milk and strong citrus products, like lemon juice, without getting sick
- The Doodler: Amazing doodling powers
- The Procrastinator: Me
Do you have any suggestions of other likely minor X-People of the future? Please share them in our comments area. Perhaps you are The Commentor.

Tune Out Fox News!
July 5, 2010I have started a Facebook group urging people to politely ask businesses to turn the channel from Fox News. It seems like every waiting room has Fox News spewing out their hateful, idiotic fake news, and I fear that it has an effect on the public’s perception of reality. Having right wing propaganda on in the background, at barely audible levels, may even be more harmful than having it on loud enough for your conscious mind to reject its illogical spewdom. I just made up that word, by the way. You are free to use it.
Last I checked, we have 134 members of the Facebook group, “Ask Businesses to Tune Out Fox!” I am hoping to soon reach a tipping point at which group membership will take off exponentially and people all over the United States will feel emboldened to ask management to change the channel.
Activism used to take so much effort. Now I just start a Facebook group and feel good about myself.

Marriage Improvement, New Useful Words, and Myths Debunked
July 3, 2010\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\//\\///\\/
Marriage Suggestion
Marriage should be a renewable contract with a set time period. Since five years is recognized as a significant hump in a relationship, that might be a good time to set your initial marriage to. Couples would promise to give it a go for the allotted time and then decide whether or not to renew the contract. That way, if after a five year span, if a couple wanted to call it quits it wouldn’t be considered a failed marriage – they would have succeeded in staying together for the agreed upon time. People newer to romantic relationships might want to try a two year marriage at first.
New Words
Transmission: A mission to change your gender.
Transfusion: A fusion power plant run by transgendered people.
Transatlantic: A good name for a transgender cruise line.
Transport: The airport where the transgender airline TransAir lands
Modern Myths Debunked by Daisybrain!
- Contrary to popular belief, Hitler was not a vegetarian. He was a voracious sausage eater and received injections of pulverized bull testicles.
- In contrast to the wisdom we accepted from our parents, alcohol does not kill brain cells. In moderate doses, in fact, it has been shown to accelerate brain cell growth in mice.
- The war in Afghanistan is not the longest war in American history, no matter how many times the media says it is. The longest was the U.S. war with the Apache nation from 1840 to 1886.

Daisybrain Included in Top 7 Web Sites List
July 3, 2010Daisybrain has been included in this list of the 7 most important web sites on line:
The Most Important Web Pages in the Universe
alongside such sites as “the dictionary.” We would be humbled by the inclusion, but the Daisybrain ego has grown so large it can no longer be humbled. Our first order of business as one of the 7 most important web sites is to fire the other 6 web sites, making us the only important web site in the universe. Secondly, we are announcing plans to incorporate all other websites into the Daisybrain matrix and release them as franchised Daisybrain sites. If you operate a web site, you are to somehow add the word “Daisybrain” to the site’s title, as in “DaisyGoogleBrain,” or “Daisy Twitterbrain.”
Stay tuned for further edicts….

Free Idea #9: Change Birthdays
July 1, 2010Currently, birthdays really commemorate birth dates. From now on, celebrate your birth day each week it comes around! If you were born on a Tuesday, every Tuesday is your birthday!
Here are some other ways to mark your birth:
- Celebrate your birth week once per year. The party would last a week and there would be plenty of time for friends who forgot at first to quickly go out & get you a present.
- Celebrate your birth hour; if you were born at 4:00, your birth hour celebration only lasts 60 minutes, but each time 4:00 rolls around you can celebrate again!
- Celebrate your birthday for as long as the labor took – be sure to thank your mother during that time.
- Celebrate your birth year for a whole year. This would be nice, since each year is the anniversary of your birth year, so the celebration just keeps going.
Which every version you choose, happy birth commemoration to you.

Proud Conservatives Vs. Embarrassed Liberals
June 24, 2010In U.S. politics, we like to believe that everything is balanced; if the Republicans are doing something bad, the Democrats must be doing it too. Outside of the extremely partisan, news commentators will generally be sure to mention that if there is corruption on one side of the aisle then the other side must be up to some dirty tricks as well. If they don’t express that assumption, they fear they may sound biased, and I think that viewers feel more comfortable with the idea that politicians are all tainted regardless of their party affiliation.

Why Blog?
June 21, 2010Why am I blogging? Do I have something to say, or do I just like the idea of having something to say? Do I need to speak or do I need to be heard (even if I have nothing to say)? Do I need to make my mark before I die? Maybe I’m blogging to give something for people to read at my funeral, so they can say, “Man, he had something to say.” Read the rest of this entry »

Altercation: the altering (spaying or neutering) of a cat
Evidence that we value violence:
We tell kids that hitting is wrong, yet singers want hits. In fact, smash hits are best; webmasters want as many hits as possible – they actually desire unique hits. Baseball players want hits, even grand slams. You want a cute person to hit on you… after all, that could be a real kick. Maybe it’s a person with a really ripped body who has a crush on you.
