Know Where

                                                                                 Know Where
                                                                                    By Kelly Phelan
                                                                                 Written in A,B,A,B 7,5,7,5
1  The tale follows a lady
That nobody knows
Her past scarily shady
Though clear where she goes

2  She hides away from her woe
spectacularly
She puts on the earth's best show
Does so, Merrily

3  The girl however was lost
In a secret place
Knew not claustrophobic cost
Of such a small space

4  Everyone came to the show
Though nobody knew
It was such a happy glow
covering the stew

5  Some did know her location
Though not where she was
Only the dream vacation
She showed all of us

6  No one in and no one out
Twas the rule of the heart
And her compliance was stout
Then came a new part

For came a man from Know Where
A place in the mind
Where all can be seen from there,
And so he did find

8  The girl in the hidden realm
place of rejection
And she became over whelmed
At his affection

9  Love felt almost dutiful
This broken-heart dame
Struck him as more beautiful
Than a girl of fame

10  She curiously approached
This man's view's new way
Those around her really coached
She should stay away

11  Small embodiments of fear
The heart's advisers
Small people who were heard clear
Like abrupt geysers

12  They whispered to her to run
In the end she did
"Don't stop til you reach the sun"
Though here's what he did

13  He waited in his new place
Where he had been cast
The very same hurtful space
That was the girl's past

14  Although no show was conceived
No mask of his pain
All saw his world and believed
He had all to gain

15  Ride after ride tried to help
Help him to escape
He remained rooted like kelp
Buried up to his neck's nape

16  Time passed but he did stay
For her grand return
It did pay off; for one day
Luck came to his turn

17  She was back and the sun shined
He then turned and said
"I saw from Know Where; my mind
Thoughts of me weren't dead"

18  "I know you were in a place
Where you wanted me
Though you feared the scary chase
To become happy"

19  But soon the dark days crept near
They arrived at dawn
He realized she wasn't here
she had left and gone

20  This was the last they would see
They both became blind
She went back to her prison
He: back to his mind

21  Then he lost civility
He became enraged
He lost his ability
And nothing had changed

22  Now he had nothing to show
For his love and wait
Now he didn't even know
Where was his soul mate

23  He could not access Know Where
He was lost like her
He tried so hard not to care;
That's not how things were

24  All the time; the girl knew this
She was in Know Where
She knew the truth but choose bliss
Deep down she did care

25  She tried to convince her heart
He was a bad man
Missing him would never start
From the truth she ran

26  She left him in suffering
In brutal, long pain
And now she is buffering
the dents from the rain

27  Life is short, she did not act
She left it alone
And she mended her heart's pact
To go it alone

28  She abused Know Where in vein
She found not new joy
She found not one single grain
She uses decoys

29  The story is now ended
They both learned to cope
All they've done is pretended
They don't wish for hope

30  Know Where sees the here and now
Can't see future's sight
Both secretly wish somehow
They will reunite

31  So comes a time in one's life
Where they're in Know Where
They cut through shows like a knife
They see, and they care

32  They shall see someone's true whole
Like nobody's seen
They'll see their entire soul
And what their worth means

33  Neither man nor girl did win
They just hide their love
Will they ever speak again....
...Does push come to shove?

uh

I just accidentally followed myself when I was trying to subscribe to someone's blog. I have no idea how to unsubscribe myself but I look pretty stupid right now.

If you have any insight for me leave a comment down below, haha thanks

Healthy

                It is a taboo subject that American people are getting fatter every year. People get an image in their mind when you ask them what the average American looks like and they will picture a fat stupid person. This is however a very hateful stereotype that shouldn't be accepted as much as any racial slur. Look at yourself, you are probably an average citizen. Are you an obese moron walking around with your eyes crossed? more than likely not; which means that is not the average person. Mexico has recently passed America up for the greatest obesity.
       Beginning in the 1920s, America hit a period of consumerism. People began making products that were more in the realm of luxury. Leisure items became a big seller and made the economy boom of course until the great depression. Ever since then however, America has become in a market place of making everything easier. Buy this product because it makes cleaning easier. Buy this; it makes meal time faster. Buy this because it provides much more entertainment and thus; the ultimate goal; to give you more relaxation time. There is now a lot more to do inside the house than outside. So people started staying indoors. Fast food gradually rose to cultural super stardom over the course of the last 60 years. junk food also became more prominent. We live in a culture now where fresh fruit in a stocking at Christmas would put a scowl on most faces. Video games, movies, television, Internet, and ready made tasty food keeps more and more people inside for longer and longer times. This is a big contributor to the fact. Plus people are busier now. Jobs are more demanding, everyday economic and social transactions are more elaborate and more involved. People don't have time anymore to make sure they are getting 8 cups of water, every part of the food chain, all of the vitamins, iron every now and then, etc. So things happened to make America a little less healthy, however that isn't a bad thing or the fault of some company somewhere.

      People tend to be under the impression that being overweight is not their fault. "I got bad genes" "I have an unusually low metabolism" "I hardly eat anything, I guess it just gets twice as much as fat out of food than other people" These things are absurd. Nobody got genes that made them 130 pounds overweight and all they do is fruit and vegetables their whole lives and exercise. It doesn't happen. Plus due to the wonderful concept of political correctness, you can't say the word fat. You also should accommodate their life styles supposedly and help them find a way to make them think that it isn't their fault. Well last time I checked-that is step for step enabling. You don't want to enable someone just so they can feel better about a bad habit. You can be nice but you actually need to do the opposite. get them motivated to realize that it is their fault, therefor they have control and they can do something about it. You want to give them encouragement to work on that road towards fitness. I hate hearing people say "well I'm not going to conform and try to look like a model, this is who I am." Well that sounds great and all, but it doesn't have to be. If everybody decided that there isn't any need to fix our faults about ourselves because it is just part of us, and that changing our flaws is 'conforming' than we'd be in a terrible place right now. Who knows where I'd be if I had complete disregard for making myself a better person for the sake of myself and everyone around me. The point isn't to get skinny to look like a model. I'm not fond of American beauty standards either, but one becomes healthy for their own sake because being healthy is healthy. I used to be slightly chubby and that's because I was watching five ours of television a day and eating junk food when I got home from school. I thought eh, I'll go play outside later. That later never really came.

              There is nothing but goodness in being healthy. Working out releases chemicals called endorphins in your brain which make you feel better. There is a certain confidence and self respect one gains when they reach a goal of fitness, not necessarily because they look better to everyone, but because they can be proud of themselves for treating themselves right. I still have about eight pounds left to go before my six pack but getting there is actually half the fun.

TALENT?

          I tried out for a musical tonight. I am such an awful singer though. It's not like oh my gumdrops I can't even look at this kid this is so awkward, but it certainly isn't, "now that kid impressed me" either. It would be somewhere between Seth Rogen having a seizure and/or throwing up and Adam Sandler with the ukelele in 50 first dates.
              I have always really enjoyed singing though. I still do it a lot more than the average person for someone who gets mistaken for an eleptic with terrets. I mean I have more pitches in one song than a baseball game. Though I still really enjoy it. The problem lies in my margin for success in the field; which is very limited and few and far between. I really wish that I could sing very well. I would trade some other useless talents that I have for it. (I don't really believe in a useless talent. I just feel like some don't really matter right now.) I believe everyone wishes they had one talent that they don't have

          Do you know of a talent that you wish you had? Something you would trade that oragami ability for or that silly juggling nak you have? Let me know what it is.
        Also try to recognize something you are good at. Think about the fact that God had something in mind when he gave you your abilities. Appreciate to yourself your particular exceptionalism and try to start thinking about diving into it a little more. On a side note we are our own worst critics so you may be better than you think

As usual this is Kel's Insight, keeping things just like those camera head people at the top of the page, in focus, and in sight
Today I just want to share a small piece of advice. You know we spend so much time talking about how we would love to meet this famous person we respect so much or think about people that we wish returned our affections or aspirations for friendship. Sometimes we harp on who isn't around or who doesn't make an effort to be there. I hate to speak for anyone but the sad fact is that they don't care-the degree of indifference depends on their involvement but some people don't care that you care about them. Though everyone has somebody who does. So take some time today to outwardly express your appreciation for that person or people that have been there and will continue to be there for you. They are a blessing, because if it was up to that bf/gf that up and left or a friend that doesn't make any time or that celebrity that doesn't know you exist, we'd all be very unloved.
Not everyone will be a kindred spirit to you, so just take every relationship for what it's worth, realize it's limitations by judging the limitations of one's commitment to your interactions. And enjoy shallow relationships with an acquaintance and cherish the very close relationships you have. There nothing wrong with menial conversation. Just don't mix up whose who in your life.
No need to be mushy if you don't do that, just say "hey man, or girl, you're awesome!"

This is of course Kel's Insight, bringing it all into focus and in clear plain sight. Leave a comment if you wish(:

Crazy Dreams

         Usually I would begin a very long and drawn out explanation of my views on dreams and the psychology of it and blah blah blah but maybe another time. Now I just want to touch on the comical nature of dreams.
           The CRAZIEST dream of my life that I can remember goes like this;
    
I was a talking vegetable. Maybe a tomato, or an apple even, but its all a little hazy. I was driving a race car in a bowling alley when suddenly a cannon ball blew my car up. I then got out unscathed and proceeded to shoot a cannon ball that randomly came out of a random cannon that I randomly now had possession of. But suddenly an old friend of mine appeared and talked to me about the fact that I left my pajamas in the swimming pool and that my favorite television program was now cancelled. I was now somewhere else entirely and I think it was a beach and a guy in a little lemonade-stand thing told me not to tell anyone that he was selling oranges. I told him i'm a vegetable and he looked confused.

          And that's as far as I can remember. What's the CRAZIEST dream that you ever had? Does it fit the acronym CRAZIEST with key words?

C - cannon
R - random
A - apple (potentially:0)
Z - ...its all pretty ZANEY
I - illegal driving (in bowling alleys)
E - evasion of a cannon ball
S - swimming pool (containing my discarded pajamas?)
T - tomato

      Love to hear your dream and your terrible attempt to fit it into the ironically overall fitting acronym CRAZIEST.
       The only insight today was but of a subconscious movie that premiered in my head one night, but of course this is Kel's Insight, and I hope I have brought something out of fog, into focus, and in sight. Dream On readers!

Patience is Worth Your Amount of it in Gold

          Everybody has a different boiling point just like different things do. Some people have such short tempers that they really ought to be in a small padded room with nothing but children's shows playing day and night. Whilst others have such a lathargic rise to anger that it is just pathetic and these people get pushed around and stepped on.
       Of course you can stick up for yourself without anger. I would recommend it if it is possible. Though sometimes being stern isn't enough for the passive-agressive get-all-you-can-get people of the world. It is very hard to decide what is worth your frustration and what is not. All I have learned is that nothing is worth your anxiety, or really frustration, or any sort of negative contemplation of what is to come. God takes care of all that.
                       I know someone who is that person that if the seatbelt doesn't come all the way down the first time in the car, than they have a tantrum of intense rage. I find this comical being someone who is really on the other end of the spectrum. I am that guy that doesn't stand up enough if the issue is close to my heart. I tend to let things slide and be a little to understanding and I have unfortunately found out recently that I am not a very talented judge of character either. That person I spoke of and I are polar opposites but both don't have the right amount of patience.
               If you have an abundance of patience but no direction, you will waste all of that precious material on someone who doesn't even care that you gave it to them. Instead, be happy if you have oh so much patience and direct it towards God and his plans for your life. This is a much better investment of a limited resource; patience. Because there are some people or things or places that can receive total patience until the end of time and never change, or accommodate your feelings or even care that you stuck around at all for them.
 Always bare in mind though that someday you are bound to meet someone worth all of your patience and time and compassion. The real trouble lies in those with short-tempered dispositions
        People like that person that I mentioned previously will struggle and people will struggle with them. It takes someone with twice as much patience to be around someone who doesn't have any. I suppose that opposites attract for a reason maybe. There's certainly psychological disunity in a person that has extreme hardships with being patient. People that walk out the door one day after a small argument, or forms a grudge over you after your first minor offense against them or someone who just doesn't stick around to hear what you have to say. Those people probably have a centralized anger about a fact about their world that they truly wish was different. Hope is not gone for the borderline comics that lash out at every minute obstacle. If someone works out why they feel so angry than they may inadvertantly inherit patience and character. We all wish some things were different about the world but taking a breath and counting to ten is the best natural reflex one can have.

 -Hopefully bringing some ideas out of the fog,
This is Kel's Insight, and I hope I have kept things in focus, and in sight

Short, Sweet, and to No Point

So thus far my reviews for my blog have been something along the lines of "it's great and everything but it is just too long and drawn out."
But that's okay. I understand that sometimes less is more. So far my post "Great Movies" has the most views.
I've decided to try to keep it more simple more often. Short posts that have nothing to do with large concepts at all. Which is good sometimes(:
The funny thing is that it's harder for me to come up with a simple subject as opposed to others lol.
Have anything you'd like to read about? Someone suggested a joke of the day post. If you have any ideas, just leave a comment below

Communication

People get on people's nerves. This is because people have different perceptions and ideas. Sometimes its not so complicated as opposing perspectives so much as it is that someone is completely right and just in their view and another is completely wrong. This is the case sometimes, though the tricky part is judging and verifying who that is. Many people don't even believe that there is right and wrong. This is ironically a grand example of a completely wrong view point.
       
           People fight, people scream and shout, its hard to know, what it's all about. People break relationships, become angry, refuse to speak to some, love to speak to others, enjoy one's company, and enjoy another's not so much. I think most of the fights people have are nothing but communication errors. Now we are all not William Shakespeare. Some of us have trouble portraying in just the right words how they feel and why. I know I sometimes struggle with this.
              There are people in my life that have vowed never to speak to me again, and people who would be very sad if I spoke not a word to them for the length of only a day. I miss those who only exist in my past, but love and appreciate all of those who are here today alongside me. I am sure this is true for everyone.
             Many times people are victims of their environmental influences. One's parents may communicate by physical gestures and be men and women of few words. Another may have been born to the long-winded poets that have little physical activity at all lol. These offspring thrust into a predicament may have trouble communicating as this poet's son may not be familiar with what these gestures mean and the charades girl may be clueless as to why this boy speaks on and on and doesn't just show her what he means. So they become angry with each other and deem the other unreasonable people. This surely can't be fair.
             A boy may have been taught that you express love with money and the things you buy for people as a measurement of your feelings. A girl may have been exposed to the idea in childhood that if he gives you money than he doesn't love you and the relationship means nothing to him. He may actually feel love and so does she. But she never buys him anything so he feels unloved. He never stopped giving her money which is the believed symbolism of indifference in her mind. Fights are generally repercussions of dynamic clashes in two people's interactions. Though the viewpoints of either may never actually be delivered in a way that the other can understand throughout the relationship. This is unfortunate.

               There are only a couple things that can hinder the solving of these issues. One is that one or both of these people are closed-minded. They may be resistent to all consideration for anyone's perspective but their own. This is impossible to deal with. (Note now though that there is a fine line between people who refuse to try to understand and people who do understand but disagree.) In situations such as these what is one to do? If every approach leads to no avail and it doesn't matter what you did or how you did it, then there just can't be a solution. It's true, you can't change people that don't want to be changed.
              
      Though I feel that so many arguments could be corrected and appeased so that both people are happy and I feel strongly about making disagreements irradicated because the alternative to perpetual impasses leads to seperation and or other terrible things in a relationship. I have "Mr. Fix it" syndrome which I have always considered to be both a character flaw and a blessing; a virtue associated with patience and persaverence. It just depends I suppose.

        There is no doubt I have been unreasonable in situations for the complete motivation of getting what I want. I believe that we have been in there. Though I wander how many disagreements and fights and issues in the world could have been fixed if both parties had thought to themselves why this person in front of them is standing where they are with the words they are saying. On grand and small scales alike, I wander what could have become of this world in the incalcualable amount of chain reactions that happen every day.

                                Where does that put us today? Well my advice is to stop the next time that there is an obstacle with another person. To stop and consider before you respond negatively just why this person feels this way. That of course only does so much if this person is out of bounds morally or simply an unreasonable person. Just remember that we all become unreasonable, so my second challenge is to stop to yourself and wander why YOU feel the way you do and are saying what you are saying. Think about what happened to make it so; is it just hormones? That surely isn't worth upsetting someone you care about just to vent because of a chemical state. What if it is unrelated to anything in your life as it relates to this person? Don't yell at that special someone because mom and dad didn't give you permission to attend the party. Don't lash out at the co-worker because that special someone made you feel bad.
      You ever feel like you two are fighting about nothing but for whatever reason you feel strongly about it? Well many fights i theorize are just nothing but ventalation of built up annoyances that you just suppressed in your mind and choose to ignore. However they add up over awhile and may cause what seems like a volcano eruption over nothing. Challenge numer 3: Talk out what you feel even if it isn't a big deal. It can prevent further disruption in a relationship. 'Pick your battles' doesn't really fit into personal relationships with someone close to you.

Okay and one last note...ALWAYS TALK ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL WITH AT LEAST SOMEONE!!!

I'm sorry but I have encountered some very upsetting personal experiences recently with people I truly love and care about who just decided that talking about personal feelings is pointless. Some people just like to pretend that everything is okay and this is just silly. Reach out to those who may seem hesitant to speak up about what troubles them. If you can consider that a fourth challenge.

Once again this is Kel's Insight and as always I hope everything was put clearly, in sight. A great day to all and thanks for reading

The cyber world enables negativity-syndrome

One thing that has always perplexed me is the abundant negativity on the Internet. I mean unfounded, unspecific, and irrelevant general negativity. YouTube is the medium I speak of mainly. I'm sure social networks are big contenders too.
And I can understand responses to political and religious statements or discussion videos in that realm. Though I see all of this random hatred on music videos and comedy videos and you know it'd almost be funny if I didn't have to realize that there are people that absurd out there.
Fred is not my favorite comedian but I have never felt compelled to take the time to sit there and type out a hateful comment that may have no legitimate criticisms or any relevant feedback at all to him. I don't understand why people put all of this effort into making the world a worse place-it's not like that person benefits from his bullying. Literally anything can become controversial on YouTube.
The music videos for slipknot songs are flooded with hatemail for Justin bieber. And why? Because he left the distortion button off on his guitar amp and off of his vocal chords.
I don't like Justin bieber or even any of the pop music that hits the top charts but my taste doesn't knight me with superiority. Everyone is entitled to what they like, and as long as it doesn't filter into moral dilemmas then who cares? Or the better phrased question, why do you care?

These are some regrettably common comments on any run of the mill video


"gay" "If anyone likes this guy they are retarded" "no one likes this video" "not funny, just give it up" "only fags listen to this music"

Of course it gets worse but I just had to talk about this. I hear people say even if they aren't negative: "I have good taste in music" what a condescending statement. As opposed to whose taste? Music is music. I myself have some beef with lyrical choices in rap and really some of many genres but there is a fine line between pointless hate and criticisms with a point.
if God is not the pinnacle of one's life, then there is an inevitable substitute to replace him. For teenagers sometimes it is music or sports or theater. And kids tend to think less of people with different talents and interests.

People are different but equal. We should celebrate our miscellaneous differences. And at the very least, respect and ignore them.


Are you one of these negative people whose only contributions to society are various messages that brought about hurt? If so why? Instead replace one mean comment a day with a genuine positive one on a video that you do like.try for thirty days and see if you can break the damaging mentality.

For those I am not addressing, congratulations for resisting what is apparently a strong temptation to showcase a lack of vocabulary and class, publicly, as a martyr for self-confidence building and preservation.

Color

I've always wondered why people have different favorite colors. What makes someone like one color more than another? Of course I found once again that the answer is psychology. Favorite anything is subconsciously based on what you like and identify with. Your personality can almost always be determined by your favorite color. Some are obvious; if it is blue then you are a calm person, a laid back person. Though even within blue, different shades mean different things. Light blue people are different from dark blues. Reds are obviously the fiery short tempered that are into action and yada yada, and it usually works out that way. From the happy sunny yellows to the Peace loving greens, everyone fits somewhere. What's yours? Does it fit?


Colors: Brown: A Brown person has stamina and patience, tending to be very solid and substantial, conscientious, dependable, steady and conservative. Browns are not impulsive, and may be inarticulate and tactless but they love responsibility and are reliable and kindly. If you chose Brown, watch out for a tendency to be obstinate and inflexible.

Gray: The color of caution and compromise, diligent Grays search for composure and peace and often work hard without reward. Older Grays like life to run on an even keel with few ups and downs. Young Grays may be withdrawing from life and suppressing their personalities. Grays often have good business ability and tend to work too much.

Black: Dignified and impressive without being showy, Black people want to give the appearance of mystery, but their preference may also indicate a suppression of desires and worldly aims, suggesting hidden depths and inner longings. Blue: Soft, soothing, compassionate and caring, Blue is the color of deliberation and introspection, conservatism and duty. Patient, persevering, conscientious, sensitive and self-controlled, Blues like to be admired for their steady character and wisdom. They are faithful, but are often worriers with somewhat inflexible beliefs and can be too cautious, and suspicious of flamboyant behavior.

Blue-Green: Exacting, discriminating, poised and attractive, the Blue-Green person tends to be sensitive, intellectual and refined, persevering and stable if rather detached. Blue-Greens have excellent taste, and are usually courteous and charming, capable but often refusing help or guidance.

Turquoise: Complex, imaginative and original, Turquoise people drive themselves hard and may be in a state of turmoil under their outwardly cool exterior.

Lavender: This is often chosen by a person who lives “on a higher plane,” who never notices anything sordid and who is always impeccably and beautifully dressed. Lavender people may be on a continual quest for culture and the refined things of life, high and noble causes but without the necessity of getting their hands dirty. A Lavender person is usually creative, charming, witty and civilized.

Purple: Purples are highly individual, fastidious, witty and sensitive, with a strong desire to be unique and different. Temperamental, expansive and artistic, a Purple person may become aloof and sarcastic when misunderstood. If you chose Purple, you tend to be unconventional, tolerant and dignified, likely to achieve positions of authority. Pink: This color embodies the gentler qualities of Red, symbolizing love and affection without passion. Women who prefer Pink tend to be maternal. Pink desires protection, special treatment and a sheltered life. Pink people require affection and like to feel loved and secure, perhaps wanting to appear delicate and fragile. Pink people tend to be charming and gentle, if a trifle indefinite.

Orange: This color of luxury and pleasure appeals to the flamboyant and fun-loving person who likes a lively social round. Orange people may be inclined to dramatize a bit, and people notice them, but they are generally good-natured and popular. They can be a little fickle and vacillating, but on the whole they try hard to be agreeable. Orange is the color of youth, strength, fearlessness, curiosity and restlessness.

Yellow: The color of happiness, wisdom and imagination, Yellow is chosen by the mentally adventurous, searching for novelty and self-fulfillment. Yellow usually goes with a sunny and shrewd personality, with a good business head and a strong sense of humor. It is the color of intellectuality and all things to do with the mind. Yellow folks are usually clear and precise thinkers who have a good opinion of their own mental capacities and who have lofty ideals. They may at times tend to shun responsibility, preferring freedom of thought and action.

Green: The color of harmony and balance, Green symbolizes hope, renewal and peace, and is usually liked by the gentle and sincere. Greens are generally frank, community-minded people, fairly sociable but preferring peace at any price. Green people can be too self-effacing, modest and patient, so they may get exploited by others. They are usually refined, civilized and reputable. White: Symbolic of purity, innocence and naivete, white has strong connotations of youth and purity. If you are an older person, your preference for white could indicate a desire for perfection and impossible ideals, maybe an attempt to recapture lost youth and freshness. It may also symbolize a desire for simplicity or the simple life.

Red: The color of strength, health, and vitality, Red is often the color chosen by someone outgoing, aggressive, vigorous and impulsive—or someone who would like to be! It goes with an ambitious nature but those who choose it can be abrupt at times, determined to get all they can out of life, quick to judge people and take sides. Red people are usually optimistic and can’t stand monotony; they are rather restless and not at all introspective, so they may be unaware of their own shortcomings. They find it hard to be objective and may blame others for any mishaps. Quiet people with a preference for red may feel the need for the warmth, strength and life-giving qualities of the color, or they blanket their true feelings under a sober exterior. Red is usually chosen by people with open and uncomplicated natures, with a zest for life.

Maroon: Harsh experience has probably matured the Maroon person into someone likable and generous. It is often a favorite color of someone who has been battered by life but has come through. It indicates a well-disciplined Red personality—one who has had difficult experiences and has not come through unmarked but who has grown and matured in the process.

Blue: Soft, soothing, compassionate and caring, Blue is the color of deliberation and introspection, conservatism and duty. Patient, persevering, conscientious, sensitive and self-controlled, Blues like to be admired for their steady character and wisdom. They are faithful, but are often worriers with somewhat inflexible beliefs and can be too cautious, and suspicious of flamboyant behavior.


My favorite color is blue, what is yours?

PhelanMenclStudios' master plot

Did you guys know that every movie PhelanMenclStudios has ever made is all part of one movie? That's right, every video is actually just a chapter out of the continuing saga of a master plot movie called Charles the obnoxious and classless penquin! Granted they were made out of order, but if you watch them in this order, you will see the obvious story.

1) The Disappearing
2) Poop
3) War Trailer, "War of the Morons"
4) Odd Occurances
5) BLANK 1-5

....is anyone going to actually do this? no, no they won't.

But on a much more realistic suggestion, you can watch the first thirty seconds and then say "wow this sucks and i'm bored," of any of our videos!! :D!!!! by typing in the ridiculously hard to remember and not catchy channel name, 'PhelanMenclStudios' in the search box at youtube.com Thank you all for your support, if it weren't for your views, we'd be right where we are now

The evolution of a popular lie

              Ah science, you are nothing but a concept. Though put on a pedastool as to replace God, he who created the concept to help humans to better understand his amazing works. They say science and math go hand and hand, yeah well so does science and atheism. Science has become the poster boy for the propaganda machine of modern-day atheism. Science in the last 60 years has been manipulated, contorted and twisted to support political and anti-religious movements such as communism, atheism, but what we are mostly exposed to; American Liberalism. Science is supposed to be a search for the truth, not a pile of plato for personal agendas. According to "Experts" "Specialists" and "prize-winning scientists", in the 1970s through the 1980s, we encountered the new ice age scare. Though now its Global Warming. So they changed their tune when there was an astounding abundance of contradictory evidence. Only a matter of time of course before they have to get creative again. Here's an exceprt from a doctor, a scientist that fits the criterion to fit the word "expert" but listen to what he has to say.

by Dr. Grady S. McMurtry, Creation Worldview Ministries

.

"I have been studying the Global Warming/Global Cooling controversy since the 1960s. Even when I was an evolutionist scientist and teacher, I knew that neither was true. I am completely convinced that the controversy is 100% politically motivated and not based on good science. The promoters of either view are either extreme socialists or extreme communists. Their sole primary purpose in promoting either view is to destroy Christian capitalism and replace it with extreme socialism/communism based upon the religion of Secular Humanism. Those who advance this agenda want to force us into bigger government, higher taxes, and loss of all personal freedoms, liberties and property rights. I have wanted to write on this subject for many years, but felt that the time was not right. I want to equip every partner of this ministry with the information to destroy every argument that is used to promote this anti-Christian agenda."

                    This man's findings and millions of others like him never had the pleasure of the media's attention. Why is this? The media doesn't want people to hear of these things. Just because someone wears a suit and sits at a desk with a high def camera pointing at their face doesn't mean they have to tell the truth. There is no such thing as the television police that monitor the legitmacy of all that is said on tv. We have to stop putting so much trust and faith into somethings that looks "legit" Same with some of my pathetic excuses for textbooks. My last year's history text book's first chapter started with the cave men chapter. Texas state board of education debated for months though on whether to include it or not! It just so happens that enough votes went in favor for the left-wing political campaign. Just because its in our school reading doesn't mean its all true. The most famous find that supposedly supported the several stages of man was "Lucy". Lucy is what they named the imaginary creature scientists created in their minds after an interesting find of a few bones in Ethiopia in 1974. They found the pelvis and a jaw. However the knee bones were found 200 feet deeper in the ground and 1.5 kilometers away from the rest of the skeleton though they put it all together. It even entered text books in several states throughout the 1970s and early 80s. Though after much observation, it was found that this was none ofther than the remains of a monkey, just a monkey that had had rickets disease which caused the shape of the bones in the lower torso appear to be those of a creature that walked upright. oops! this wasn't the first foul up that rocked the world of the innocent minds in public education. This story was even in my textbook last year. An artist had been hired by some archiologists to recreate what they thought was a half ape half man creature they had found evidence for...the evidence? a tooth. Just a tooth, and the artist drew an entire form for this creature and it went into textbooks for kids to be indoctrinated! Wait it gets better, conclusive evidence proven multiple times proves that this was a pig tooth. It wasn't even a primate's tooth at all. How does it end up as widely believed fact then? There are people that abuse the title scientist for political and moral success and sign their name and swear up and down that this is true. So its scientists vs scientists and there is enough atheist scientists to override the backlash of true scientists that represent the facts. Just like it only takes 51% of the people to elect a president.

             If evolution is true, then all of our family trees go back to micro-organisms and the micro-organisms poofed into existence one day. This is absurd. Excuse me if I am blunt. If an ape and an ape mate, out comes a baby ape, not a giraffe or a chicken, or a dolphin or a half-human, and half-ape for that matter. These stages of life between man and ape would still exist if that were true. Why are there just step number #37 in the evolutionary process creatures alive and then the final product, humans. Why did some apes evolve and others didn't? Change over time can't happen based on the desires of creatures. The giraffe doesn't have a long neck because over millions of years he realized all he had to eat was on a high tree above. It doesn't matter if in five minutes or five million years if he wants to have a longer neck to reach food, it won't happen. God created the giraffe this way in the beginning so that it may eat. Scientists are dead set on monkeys and humans because they share lots of DNA similarities and they look alike. Monkey see monkey do right? Well how about a few facts for you here. We have the 30% of the same DNA as roosters. Are we thirty percent rooster? are roosters thirty percent human? If a rooster evolved as much as it did in this tme thus far, would twice that time make it a human eventually? No?! We have 20% of the same DNA as yeast...YEAST. Are we 20% yeast? should we be arrested for eating bread because its 20 freaking percent cannabilism? My word. It's time we realize the facts. Everything that exists must be created by something that already exists. If you look around you at all the people places and things; you will realize that they were all created at one time. Buildings were built, people came from one woman and one man, and it is the same for the earth. Logically, in all fairness, you must assume that everything began and only a divinity can create that which is. This is God, the one and only. Sorry for the rude awakening but let me offer you some coffee. God created all things and lives today. Billions of people realize this, but that doesn't mean that any of them work on the board of education or have control over any form of mass media. Remember that

An Uncompleted War Film

So a few of my friends and I put together a trailer for a war film that we have yet to complete. The trailer has an amazing 200 views!! Woopty Flippin Do! So i figure there is maybe a .00007% chance that some of you may have watched it. Well we haven't been able to film the rest and quite frankly we don't even know what it would be about if we did. Every single one of our videos is 100% improved. We have a process where we think of a scenario and then we turn the camera on. Perhaps this is why they are...well hey, see for yourself.
              I was thinking though that it would be cool to have some random suggestions about how the film should play out. You know I'd like this to be sort of a break away film. Something halfway respectable and if i'm not climbing out on the limb too far, then maybe even interesting. I wrote a brief potential opening scene establishing basically an 'excuse' for why we are filming a war movie in what is obviously a backyard with toy guns and with the soldiers being of teenager age. This is the scene!

Battle Climactic (A War’s End)
There is a major war going on between two countries. A Small fleet of three soldiers crash their helicopter and are stranded in a suburban neighborhood in the warring country. They were on rescue mission to save a friend who had been left behind at the last battle point. However they crashed as it happens to be three hundred yards from the hidden capital city of the opposing country. They are confronted by two soldiers on a supplies mission. The battle under the circumstances could be a major turning point in the war. If these three crash victims can kill the supply men and advance to the capital and send back intelligence of the hidden location they can win the war.
Scene #1
(Attorney General is in the radar room. Commander Mitchell enters)
General: At ease
Commander Mitchell: Sir, I have a very interesting piece of information that you must see immediately
(They sit down)
Commander Mitchell: A small lacking quadrant of platoon was onboard a rescue mission to a recent battle point to retrieve a stranded private. The mission was low-profile but their helicopter crashed. This typically would not concern the advising of someone on your level but there is a twist to the story. We don’t have their location as they went under ultra-surveillance evasion; A new experimental program. Bottom line we lost their coordinates well over an hour before they crashed. They could be anywhere.
General: Mustn’t they be somewhere along the path of the destination Commander? Easily calculated.
Commander Mitchell: Yes, however the exact destination was never known by anyone outside that platoon. They were the only ones that strayed out so far to an isolated battle on uncharted territories. That’s why they were chosen for the rescue mission despite minimal training in this field. Suffice to say the telecommunications also went offline after the crash; however not before we received this message
(message reads: “We have found the capital”)
General: Good grace
Commander Mitchell: If they succeed in acquiring communications in the capital city; they can report to us their, and the capital’s, exact location
General: This is a potential turning point Commander Mitchell. Organize a sizeable militia to stand by in the event we receive the coordinates
Commander Mitchell: 10,000 of the brightest waiting hand in foot. Unfortunately, the three personnel that crashed are perhaps the biggest morons in the whole military. Each 18 and incredibly stupid
(Commander moves the radar)
General: Just our luck. How long ago did they send this message?
Commander Mitchell: Two days; their last signal was picked up here, and then they were gone
General: Let’s hope they can do it
Scene #2
(Title sequence. Area shots of the battle setting)

Hopefully this is a reasonable opening. I changed the name from what is said in the trailer "War of the Morons" to "Battle Climactic (A War's End)" basically because I feel that it is more enticing. It may not seem like it but it is definately first and foremost a dumb comedy film. It's what we're going for anyway. Suggestions would be AMAZING. Seeing as i would love to make the beginning of a slew of interesting short films. The trailer is here for you to watch in case you miraculously didn't end up in the .00000007% percentile. Comments are appreciated, reading is appreciated, and if you have viewed any of my work, written or filmed, then you have my sincerest gratitudes.

-Thank you, Kel
