Why
So Much Archeological Stuff Disappears.
Many
a civilization (speaking for its collective mortal components) has surveyed
its neural surroundings and eventually declared: “If I can’t complain
-- I shan’t remain.”
Though
’tis easy for a magician to make vanish,
things
which were ne’er there to begin with,
it
still remains vexing for a man to do so regarding his mentally imposed
self.
“Let’s
all sing: ‘The Rise And Fall Of The
Roman Imaginary Me.’”
The
first weekend after Adam
left The Garden,
and
Odysseus
realized he was not on course for home,
the
inhabitants of the upper levels of man’s old tenement threw a party
where
they all sat around and reminisced about the future.
As
an upcoming old adage will have it:
“A
man who wears a kilt -- shouldn’t hang around long.”
Some
Of Man’s Unrecorded History.
What
is the first thing men always do immediately after blinking? --
they
turn and walk off in the wrong direction, and someone says:
“But
which IS the wrong direction?” -- after blinking --
EVERY direction.
Re
A Certain Weakness Of The Eyes/I’s.
Men
can see well enough into space, and believe they can into time,
(just
shows how ability in one area doesn’t necessarily translate into another).
Science
(And Then Some).
The
main force running this universe is the opposing one.
“The one opposing what?”
Doesn’t
matter.
One
man pulled a trick quiz on himself by asking:
“What
is the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on man?” --
and
not knowing the answer, he then gave it: “Being told you can always do
better,”
and
then presented another question:
“What
is the key ingredient to keeping civilization going?” --
and
again he was stumped and so answered again: “Same fraud.”
(He
swore privately that he would never fall for this again.)
One
bullet’s primary complaint with war is that on the battlefield
you
can’t tell whether people have been shot, or have just fallen down.
(That
may should read one man’s
complaint?)
A
chap offers: “Hearing someone explain their behavior on the basis that
it
is what their religion, culture or any external source dictates
is
the only thing in all of life that I find frightening.
Is it just me?!”
One
guy’s latest view is that when it gets to be real crunch-time,
all
you can do is what you can do and then say:
“I
leave it in the hands of god,” or: "Fuck it!”
Life
has made a donation in your name to its favorite charity -- itself,
the
donation -- you.
Fact:
Justice is relative -- which works out just fine, since so’s
injustice.
Instead
of a dog or cat for a pet, one man kept modifiers.
“So
you see son, contrary to popular belief: the road-to-ruin
is not
paved --
since
it is going nowhere.” (And the man with the modifiers added: “To
speak of.”)
Science
And Then Some: Revisited.
The
main force running this universe is the opposing one.
“Instead of the universe, are you sure you don’t mean life?”
Trying
to understand what is going on with life
without
first understanding what is going on with your nervous system and mind
is
like hearing an unidentifiable noise in your house late at night,
and
the only way of determining what it is is to not investigate it.
Regarding
Permanent Mental Residency.
A
man with no needless resistance needs no address.
One man would preface all of his pithiest remarks by leaving the room.
Note:
Dependence on thought when thinking is not understood
is
the limitation of
thought.
Hormones
And Neurons In History.
The
reason that Attila
is better remembered than Plotinus
is
that Attila
didn’t take no shit.
"Even off himself?"
Bravo!
In
the eternal struggle between man’s body and mind,
his
body says: “What struggle?” while his mind whines: “Body doesn’t
play fair!”
One
man’s take in verse:
We live in our head,
and then in our bod,
this makes us weird,
which certainly seems odd!?!
The
Selfishness Of Natural Domination.
Those
who lead men look after their own interest first –
same
as life does --
who
is who the leaders follow --
how
could it be otherwise.
A
man with a true, self-formed self has no concern about, self esteem,
and
another look at an earlier story:
a
man with no address needs
no address.
The
publisher of the city paper sent around the following inner office edict:
“We
will no longer pander to the dangerous intellectual instincts of the people:
henceforth,
all offerings of editorial wisdom and insight must be clearly based on
either
whining or sarcasm.”
One
rebel left this message after he left:
“No
matter how exciting the game -- depend on scores to be boring.”
You can investigate the doings of others,
and you can investigate the words of others,
or you could
look into something worthwhile.

The
limitations of a plane's flying ability is determined by the pilot's understanding
of flight.
