If you don't know already, The Nearby Future will be back in July, which is only a few days, but still. Rika's post, however, is obviously not completely accurate because once again she used that annoying tone of writing that made it seem like we all share her thoughts.
I do not have writer's block and have a hard time watching as she singlehandedly wrecks our search engine rankings! Alright, I'm a little melodramatic, but as you can see I am a little more than annoyed.
I've been saving my creative juices for things like the logo which is pretty much the green flower and TNF written inside. I made it with Gimp, which is a photo editing software and it's awesome.
Pretty cool, huh?
Alright I'm done writing for now.
I'll be back in July.

Human Rights Day
So today is 'Bloggers Unite For Human Rights' day hosted by the wonder blog catalog. Anyways, us bloggers are supposed to spread awareness about the issues of the world.
Well, I'm not going to talk about the cyclone, or the Olympics, or any of those Human Rights issues that are going to be talked about by every single blogger that cares today.
If you care and want to help suffering people, google it or go read Rika's thought here.
If you don't, then google it anyways so that maybe you will change your mind and be reasonable.

Save the Blogs
You browse the internet, the echoes of many blogs tumbling past.....
"SAVE THE TREES!" ...... "save the world click here!"....... "OMG FREE OIL!! TAKE OUR SURVEY!!!"
You got it, the web has become a world for people to attempt to win over viewers because their site is 'necessary for absolute survival!'. Really, people, save your blog, not the world. It needs some desperate work to move away from the marketing empire that you've been trying to build up.
If you don't visit The Wells Mission or thenearbyfuture.com, you won't implode, you won't die of starvation, you will probably still have a car that works, but you probably wouldn't have laughed that day. You probably haven't learned what you could've by visiting, but it's not the end of the world.
Save the blogs, save the world from the useless advertising. We don't need more ads, people!

The Truth Behind The Nearby Future
So The Nearby Future isn't all black-and-white. We're not some kind of reality show. Just because I aspire for dictator of the world does NOT mean that:
A lot of the comments we receive on The Nearby Future are from people who live under a rock. One really cracked me up: "Is everyone on the staff?"
*Laughs hysterically* of COURSE not everyone is on the staff! We talk about 'the staff' as if it's a fan club. (Which it isn't, it's about as interesting as owning a pet rock) if EVERYONE was in the staff, then what would happen? We wouldn't call it "the staff" we'd call it "The people of the world"!
-Calister F. Wells
- I secretly plan Rika's demise every time she rejects one of my articles
- I am so lowly and uncreative that I chose to blow up the world every time my take over plan fails
- I am using this website for the purpose of recruiting people to back me up during world domination.

May the Force Be With You
So yesterday I felt like watching TV- which, is usually not one of my favorite things to do- and I saw this interview with George Lucas, and he talked about the phenomenon that made him famous (what else is there for him to talk about?).
It was interesting how his intentions with Star Wars was to give the world a view on religion different, comparing all of the religions. He said once that we were all seeing a "different part of the elephant" and that all religions were true.
