Absent For A Bit ....

I am away for a little while working on a few or more episodes for The Adventures of My Space Alien Alter Ego story ... will return (to Earth) soon!

Notice: Blogger has screwed up and lost a bunch of photos out of my blog! They are replaced with a gray silhouette of a human head. I will eventually get them replaced with the correct photo, it may take a while to find and fix everything. So some of my stories don't make much sense without their photos, sorry for the inconvenience.

Watching Breaking Bad Randomly


I am using a random number generator in order to select random seasons and episodes to watch Breaking Bad in 4K from Netflix.

Netflix only has a choice of 13 items, movies and tv shows to watch, so it is not worth paying eXtra for at the moment.

Not much else is happening right now eXcept that my wife decided to add a floral shop to our business, which I think wiLL be veRy synergistic with what we already have going. I believe she has finaLLy fiLLed up our building.

Sometime in the near future I plan to get a Raspberry Pi 2 computer and play with it. For now I am studying it when I take a break from biochemistry, my first love.

I generated the number 325 between 4 and 2000 that appears to be random but it might not be as there are 4 curves in 325 and 2 maybe three straight bits depending on how you write 2 so I think that implies that maybe there is an underlying pattern of curves.

I am sure I read the new Raspberry Pi is rather good.

Rob: I used your constraints of 4 and 2000 and got 1675 which has 3 curves and 6 straight lines. I counted the 6 as one curve and the 1 has a curve at the top. I counted 6 straight lines because the 1 has a bottom horizontal piece on the font actuaLLy used by the random number generator.

I just tried a minimum number of -2000 and a max of -4 and it generated -463.

I got 100 which I think is a good thing, like a grade on a paper. I like it.

fmcgmccllc: If anyone was going to get 100 it needed to be you, how appropriate.

I have decided to change my random selection process. I was picking the season then the episode. But the number of episodes per season varies, so I am now going to pick the nth show to watch and feed the random generator a range of 1 to 62.

Me - I would just watch them in order - that's how boring I am.

Hah! I would neVer associate the word 'boring' with my dear friend Badger. As a student of cinematography I watch in a wide variety of ways to notice different aspects of the entire creative process.

These are pieces that I have generated mainly using computer art tools. Enjoy !

Something New:

I am also in the process of linking my poetry blog entries together. This project is only partially finished. A "Poetry LINK" at the bottom of the blog entry points to the next older piece of poetry.
