PARADOX

December 29th, 2005 by tetramethylbenzidine

A paradox is an apparently true statement or group of statements that seems to lead to a contradiction or to a situation that defies intuition. Typically, either the statements in question do not really imply the contradiction, the puzzling result is not really a contradiction, or the premises themselves are not all really true (or, cannot all be true together). The recognition of ambiguities, equivocations, and unstated assumptions underlying known paradoxes has led to significant advances in science, philosophy and mathematics.

Examples of paradoxes:

Liar paradox: "This sentence is false."                                                              

Petronius‘ paradox: "Moderation in all things. Including moderation."

Smale’s paradox: A sphere can, topologically, be turned inside out.

Buridan’s ass: How can a rational choice be made between two outcomes of equal value?

Paradox of hedonism: When one pursues happiness itself, one is miserable; but, when one pursues something else, one achieves happiness.

Grandfather paradox: You travel back in time and kill your grandfather before he meets your grandmother which precludes your own conception and, therefore, you couldn’t go back in time and kill your grandfather.

Nihilist paradox: If truth does not exist, the statement "truth does not exist" is a truth, thereby proving itself incorrect.

Moore’s paradox: "It’s raining, but I don’t believe that it is."

Diamond-water paradox Why is water cheaper than diamonds, when humans need water to survive, not diamonds?

Glen’s Paradox- " Does the hole of a doughnut exist."

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsiliconvolacanoconiosis–the longest word in the english dictionary. By definition, it is a disease with pneumonia-like symptoms caused by silicon particles from erupting volcanos. Here is a picture of a patient having the said disease. Signs of extreme boredom are usually seen. Unpredictable actions always manifest. The said disease is said to be incurable. HEHEHE!!!

This is it…

"This is it…" laging bukambibig ni Ato at ni Bhong pag oras na ng test. Natatae, na-iihi…yan lang ang ilan sa mga pakiramdam na kasalukuyang sumusundot sa aking puwet at mga kasukasuan. Gusto kong mag yosi pero matagal na akong nag quit. pucha, proud na proud ako. By the way, my next article is, "How to quit smoking in 30 days". Para sa mga tatanga-tangang magsasabi na, "what’s the big deal with quitting smoking", isa lang masasabi ko sa inyo, "FUCK YOU!, try smoking, be addicted then you tell me how to quit…stupid bastards."

Nyway, back to the next big thing. The "TEST" is soon. My pencils are sharped, including my hair. My books are packed, i’ll be leaving tomorrow. Am I ready? Hell, YEah! i’m excited. My life is worthless. I have nothing to loose. What more do i need?

"If a man is called to be a streetsweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted or Beethoven composed music or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause and say, "Here lived a great streetsweeper who did his job well."

Have you ever wondered what your obituary would be on the time of your demise? Do you think some one would bother to advertise your death for the world to grieve? Did you simply exist in this world? Will you be missed?

Does the Hole of a Doughnut Exist?

August 3rd, 2005 by tetramethylbenzidine

It has been generally accepted that the Hole of a Doughnut is nothing but an empty space. It is the definition of nothingness. Many years have been given on the study proving that there is something existing in that hole, however scientists failed time and time again.

But on the eve of 2005, a breakthrough was made by a brilliant young scientist named Glen Grijalvo. He has initially proven that something really exist in a doughnut hole. Information is yet to be released. The young scientist, however, promised that additional details about the new theory will be made public by the end of this year. This theory is said to be next to the Theory of Relativity.

Im Free, My Son

June 10th, 2005 by tetramethylbenzidine

Go to fullsize image

My son, it’s been a while. I’m sorry for being gone for quite some time. Your dad has been very busy lately. Anyway, I kept my promise. I hope you are proud. I have finally graduated.

It’s been 5 months ago since I last visited you. I remember my last prayers very well. I asked God to set me free and give your mother happiness. I prayed for strength to continue what I have started. God is good. He answered our prayers, my son.

Do you still remember the days we use to visit a little chapel everyday? I would stay there for hours, soaking my self in tears. I begged in prayers for your mom to come back to me. I begged, oh! How I begged. I cried until crying doesn’t hurt no more. My tears dried out. My will, undermined. I realized then, she wasn’t coming back. I asked God again, “Lord, teach me to let go”. He gave me time. Then I asked Him for the last time, “Lord give her happiness”. I saw her once again. She was happy.

My angel, I’m now finally free. I know you have already forgiven me. Would you do your old man a favor? Kiss your mom goodnight. Tell her I miss her. And my love for her remains unchanged.

Your Dad
