SUDDEN PORTHOLE ORIGINS: Part 2 "Porthole vs. Portal"

A typical view through a typical porthole.

I've had a few peoples contact me regarding my use of the word "porthole" instead of "portal".

As I stated in my previous "ORIGINS" post, the words "sudden porthole" came out of my mouth very randomly back in 1993...I really had no idea why I said it or what it meant.

As time went on I began to associate the 2 words with the ordeal most commonly known as "being born".

I realize most people don't remember being born, and so I will now briefly remind you of what it's like:

*one minute you're peacefully floating in a warm soup inside your mom when all of a SUDDEN a PORTHOLE appears...one thing leads to another and before you know it you've just been squeezed into an entirely different dimension*

Being born.

In my mind, a "porthole" is a window between varying dimensions…I therefore interpret THE BEAM to be a quick glimpse through a window between the umpteen dimensions in which we find ourselves embedded.

A dog peers through a "Pet Porthole": the device allows the dog to identify who just slammed a car-door within the dimension beyond his comprehension.

I hope you all can accept my use of the *Poetic License* I obtained in high school creative writing class…if not, well then god damn I don't think we'd have much to talk about over dinner.

I figure if someone can take the word "porthole" and make a halter-top, then why can't I call my movie "Sudden Porthole"? What's the world coming to? Not sure. 

A porthole-themed halter top (available at Kohl's most-likely).

In conclusion, I hope this finds you all safe and sound within your own little worlds. 

And remember…don't forget to close the porthole when you're preparing food in the lower-deck of an Arctic Ocean Explorer!
