Sometimes I think I would like life better as a homeless person (assuming I lived some place with no winter). I'd find some little town, and be the strange, yet lovable hobo resident, with no one to compete with for bottles. I'd wander around all day, collecting cans and shit, muttering odd quips, and pretending I was the emperor of Upper Tofino or summat, and it'd be ok, because I'm homeless.

I dunno, it just seems like it could be alot more fun than being a CSO, or even a doctor or something.


I"m watching this show on Space about these guys who pretend to be super heroes, and walk around their respective cities helping the homeless, and so forth. I think that would be kind of fun too, though I think I'd be a super villan, simply to sort of balance it out. Unfortunately, I can't really see how you could possibly do that/get anything out of it. I suppose technically, serial killers and the like are probably as close as the real world would ever get to super villains, which makes me wonder what one of these guys would do, faced with one of them. It's sort of funny how:

1. Human nature requires society to have what are incredibly restrictive laws if you think about the way they were just 100 years ago.

and

2.These laws, coupled with increasing apathy for "fellow man", etc., cause a greatly disproportionate limit to the levels of good and evil one can realistically hope to achive. One can put on a costume, and run around murdering people, but it's very, very unlikely that someone else who puts on a costume would be able to stop them, or really even most "lesser" criminals without they themselves going to jail.

I'm reading Hunter. It's a white power book about a serial killer based on Joseph Paul Franklin, who goes around killing interracial couples in an attempt to start a race war. However, rather than being a mystery story, it's told from the perspective of the killer, who is apparently doing the right thing somehow. I'm not really that far into it, but it's about as bad as you'd expect, and I kinda doubt I'll finish it. The website I found it on had some interesting points on racial politics, amidst the usual garbage, but I can't really recall how I got there, and don't think I'll bother looking through the rest of the literature.

Wow, I'm horribly bored.
