Portraits + Nikki Talk

Yep, my head really looks like a penis, + Sean + his daughter got some big ol' clunkers for gourds. Oh, and my mistake, Sean said I look like a "brain-eating SERIAL KILLER" not "convict". Hey, do me a solid + check out my pic on www.writeaprisoner.com/Template.aspx?i=2-303724 (that's the pic' he based that comment on) + "keep it real", do I look that morbid? I value a woman's opinion!

Personally, I'm desensitized to the point of almost total indifference. To care is to suffer in here, so I generally don't give a f' about whatever, yet I appreciate beauty, it's just so f'ing rare in here! Thus my flat affect.

Been drawing for 2-3 yrs. now. At first, I sucked. I persisted + now am "okay".

Hey, if you can check out Sean's (Riker #567232) ad on prisoninmates.com + leave a message for me, in response to his last letter: "What kind of sicko do you take me for? Of course I didn't rub my balls on that letter to you! I only do that for girls :). The gang investigators here tote our mail clenched in their pits, saturating 'em with their funk - that's how they say 'I love you guys' :). Ya get my letter c/o Mr. Turd Fetish? I never got your 16, 20 + 24 Sept. ones, I.C.'d it. And write f-ing Mike + tell him I love 'im + got his spiel + heard from Bubba." Also, if you will, see the reply I left for the transcriber of post #77, + please do the same, e-mail the post to any media you can. I would not fight for his cause if it wasn't just. Feel free to contact him yourself, but, like me, he can't pay airmail to reply on paper.

Please feel free to "pimp" my art or posts around. I give you that blanket permission. You grasp "mateship", are F-ing smart (!) +, at least at one time, lived "outback" (I envy you - crocs, spiders, snakes, horny roos, so many awesome ways to die!)

Don't recall seeing Kangaroo Jack, but c'mon, you're my generation. Crocodile Dundee, "That's not a knife, THIS is a knife." I saw THAT; +, who was it, Steve Irwin, I loved his lunacy, the animal nut who died from the stingray. So, yeah, I know there's various species (?) of roos, some puny - the buck one looked buffed-up to me, so I assumed he was a Red.

As for Consciousness Explained + Wikipedia's entry on it, more on that later, but it's not adequate + not even quite fair. F.Y.I., there is a way to "measure" beauty (if not prettiness); classic ratios/proportions noted back in ancient Greece + symmetry. "Illusory" isn't the right word, maybe "imagined" is better: a forest is merely a bunch of trees, consciousness is merely a bunch (MILLIONS) of neuronal activities. Searle's a bullshit artist, + Dennett + Hofstadter (they've often collab'd + co-authored) have unpimped him repeatedly. Try to get the book on tape if you're too busy to read it. There IS consciousness, but what it is is not as mysterious as Searle dreams it to be.

More later! Be your Aussie self! There was a hot Aussie P.T. here I wrote an Lof1 essay - 17 pgs. - about. I'll try to post it :). It involves a 3rd nipple! Nate!

I will reply more in depth when I get a chance. Can I also ask you to spell my name 'Nicki' not Nikki... I would normally never be so pedantic, but there is another Nikki (spelled that way) who leaves comments on BtB, and I think she might be from Australia also. It just makes it easier for me to understand who you're talking to - Because you're hard enough to understand at the best of times without me attempting to decipher messages meant for someone else entirely ;)
