Shipped this afternoon!!! EnJOYYyyyyyyy
Besides holding one of my packages for virtually no reason for a day, I’ve generally had no problems with UPS. What kind of experiences are you guys getting? I buy a lot of stuff from Newegg (geek =D), and 99.9% of the time, items are shipped via UPS.
Hoooooooooooooly shieeeeeet!
My present came in…Buttfucking Jesus Christ! Coatl Hooked me up son!

Cd’s of presentations by what I can only assume is some sort of guru? Along with his books relating to gaming/ technology (seriously, you’re going to have to explain this one to me Coatl. I’ve been listening to his presentation on dreaming and I’m not sure what exactly to make of it, although I suspect that’s entirely because I’m on a high right now due to opening all this stuff!):

Sorry for the quality of the pics, all I have is my blackberry but oh my god. just oh my god. Coatl…I owe you one. Holy cow.
Wow that’s a lot of stuff man. Coatl hook your ass up, i think you rig this Valaris…
I did rig some of the pairings, but not for myself.
What a haul.
Holy shit. I just put in my USB flash drive and he put on a bunch of anime and music and movies!
Good shit there…:tup:
My pairing was rigged because I initially got last year’s recipient again.
Yeah, I volunteer with a non-profit called The Tequihua Foundation.
What we’re basically doing is trying to create and maintain a center fo Koyote The Blind, a Toltec man of Knowledge, to operate. We have Tellings every Thursday night at 7:30pm PST (justin.tv/koyote93) and workshops and shit. Well… he did a HUGE dreaming workshop that was fucking nuts. So I figured I’d get you a DVD of that class, and some written material.
“Vertical Gaming”… kinda tricky subject. Well you have NPC’s (non-player character) and PC’s (Player character). The difference of course is that one is being operated by someone outside the game, and the other is simply a function of the game. Human beings are for the majority only capable of functioning as automatic parts of reality. Associative thought is one example, and the lifelong occupation of seeking shelter, food, procreation, status or any other empty venture. Humans are not even capable of accomplishing something of objective value, because they are too busy playing these meaningless games of self-glorification, wether that’s through money, religion or “spirituality” (which is actually egotism for the most part).
Link of Zelda fame has for one reason or another managed to be in communication with someone outside his world. To the extent link adheres to your (or my) Will, he is accomplishing an objective deed. We are using the lifetime of Link to gain experiences and even knowledge which can be used in other games. There is a parallel there between Link/us and Us/something else.
There are a lot of parallels between the significance of Link’s existence, purpose of life, and his death, and that of humans. To put it shortly, humans are capable of invoking the presence of a being of higher Will, and serving towards the accomplishment of it. That’s the basis of all Mystery Schools, the Argentum Astrum, Sufi mysticism and other crap too (even Esoteric Christianity and Gnosticism).
Koyote elaborates with fare more eloquence and expertise than me though, so check it out.
Also, Valaris, if there is anything there you don’t want or already have, feel free to give it away to someone else.
EDIT: I loaded the USB with movies and shows I cuoldn’t find anywhere for purchase, and my favorite favorite favorite of certain genres of music. I would have given you more music, but you said you weren’t into it that much. Oh well.
Show us your Christmas card!
Are you nuts? I’m going to be the selfish motherfucker here today! bwuahahahahah
Thanks for the explanation though :tup: makes more sense now.
Edit: I have a good source letting me know I’m not the only one getting hooked up today. Keep an eye on this thread.

http://s649.photobucket.com/albums/uu212/MysticXmas/?action=view¤t=616927c1.pbw <—Awwww yea! Just got it today.
I kinda feel bad about not doing anything creative with my gifts. I just ordered and shipped them (goofed up on Amazon and skipped the giftwrap part on accident).
I hope my recipient enjoys them anyway.
Mission complete.
Btw, Mystic has been talking on IRC for over a year about wanting a drum and wanting to learn to play, which is why I got him the drum stuff in addition to the stuff he asked for.
…seriously.
quiche hooks it up too
i refuse to believe he is jewish
