What to do with no money.

Boredom is the most inexcusable word I know of--when someone says they are bored I hear them say that they are themselves boring . Deep down I think they lack creativity or need a nudge in the right direction. This blog is an attempt at a nudge.


Why now? We live in an age that lacks individual creativity. We subcontract it out to artists, producers, musicians, etcetera etcetera. We passively watch movies,play games, and listen to music; many people die with unsung songs and a fire inside which was never let out. This is a shame.

Why free? Because we live in an economy that demands it and there are no excuses when things are free. If someone says they are bored, but has no money, I feel like they are like someone who complains of a messy room and has no many to have it cleaned.

What for? For redemption and recycle; investment and nourishment; growth and maturity. There are video games that can make you a hero and at night you stick in the memory card and turn off the console. How about real life? What about fulfilling activities that revitalize your core? What if you did things that helped others in a real spatial-time existence? What if you played a game where, at the end of the day, all the pieces didn't go back in the box? This is about saving money. Doing good. Building community. Enhancing creativity.


What follows is a series of posts based on ideas of fun free activities that exist but are undiscovered, or are yet to be invented.
