Brain.
At any moment it is said we only use 10% of it.
We could have been so much more.
But our desire to worship ruins everything.
Problems.
Everyone has them.
Poachers of humanity often are the first to lend a hand.
Time.
The method of destruction.
No matter what we accomplish Time will see to it.
Rules.
Every civilization since the dawn of time had them.
We obey them.
A few of us are hated because we have what others do not.
Power. Distinction. Purpose.
And so we are hunted and hounded.

Item 1. Today I drew 23 sketches of a nude woman. 700 remain.
Item 2. I’m on a comic reading spree. World War Hulk was great!
Item 3. One of my Secret Plans currently is to buy a Rack from IKEA to solve my book problem
Item 4. I won’t be recommending “Men Behind the Sun” to anyone. It’s really a sick and disturbing film about the war atrocities committed by the Japanese at Unit 731, the secret biological weapons experimentation unit of the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II
