A
speaker in city park said to the crowd which had momentary gathered:
“If
my family had a motto,” then interrupted himself to note that in truth
he should say: “If I had a family then its motto might be,” and someone
shouted out that
it
is precisely this sort of meaningless mental wandering that so debases
the value of public discourse, which the speaker ignored and pressed on:
“If
I had a family and it had a motto it would be:
'Those
Attempting To Save The Whole World Are Wrecking Mind,'”
and
after some seconds of really phat silence as the crowd pondered the previously
unnoticed similarity and possible connection between the possessive
pronoun, mine
and the word the speaker had surprisingly used where it had been expected,
someone
in the crowd muttered that the entire episode had: “Hardly been worth it,”
to
which the speaker return-muttered: “What is?!”
--
a
comment which seemed to mark the end of this urban interlude.
Notice:
It is only in the civilized and relatively safe areas,
not
the feral, blood drenched jungles that creatures are concerned with the
idea that their world, associates and foes need managed protection to survive.
Hormones,
the most physically dangerous of entities
express
ne’er a concern for anyone while physically impotent neurons
prattle
on endlessly about their distress over the human condition.
The
lead investigator,
while
admitting he has no solid theory to explain how the event occurred,
does
say he has a theory as to what sort of theory would be required to do so.
After
almost every thought, one man slaps himself on the forehead and privately
exclaims: “Why didn’t I think of this before!?”
Another
description of what this kind of activity is:
The
relentless painting-yourself-into-a-corner
until the corner ceases to exist.
In
a certain never-never
(well: almost never)
land
everyone’s
final words are always both brilliant and
incomprehensible.
No
one but the certain man himself has the slightest
idea of the fun he has
privately
in his own head.
In
one land, the king (in regard to things which he should
hear about)
constantly
insisted: “I don’t want to hear about it!”
The
balancing act of the most ordinary of minds will put to shame
even
the most remarkable of tight rope walkers.
Yet
additional words limning the nervous system rebellion:
It
is to help a few take in fully the nature of their captive individuality
so that they can finally move on to something both more interesting and
profitable.
Q: What is perhaps mankind’s most intelligent creation? -- Superstition.
Every
kingdom comes into existence with two regents
--
a
fact seldom realized by the people --
an
ignorance commonly shared by the two in power.
Question:
What harm can unawareness equally spread around do?
(“Matters of politics, and control do not interest me: I am an artist!
--
an intellectual! --
a man of the spirit!”
Ride
on Josephine, ride on.)
One man used to continually try to translate everything he heard into a language.
One
fine day (actually somewhere between Fine
and
Coarse
#3)
a
man sat his long time apprentice down and somberly said:
“My
boy, I have finally come to realize that some of what I have told you
throughout
the years is not correct, in the sense of it being objectively operational,”
and pensive silence hung between them as the younger began to methodically
unfurl
a brightly painted banner that said: “Welcome
To The Club.”
As
a group: cows can all eventually
see-the-light --
except
for those who see a second light
--
then
you have the appearance of two clubs: the Orthodox-Conservative
and
the Progressive-Liberal.
The
human mind can only be confused and distracted when supported by
two
healthy legs.
“Yes dear colleagues: every day is a fine day when you’re in the herd.”
Seeing
The Special Disappeared.
In
a multifarious and omni related reality such as ours it is inevitable (maybe)
that
at some time some thing may get out to the edge and fall into another actuality;
when
this happens --
and it is seen (as in witnessed) by
someone
in the original location --
it is not
seen -- see?!
(“Where did I go?” asks a man who went.)
A
note found under a short tree in city park says:
“The
kind of person who will not change their mind
is
the same sort who used to court my sister
--
when
she lived above my frontal lobes.”
A
prime attraction of religion and all institutions is their persistence;
hormones,
even under the direst of circumstances, will eventually give in,
but
not neurons -- not
when they have a good grip on the
Cheshire
Cat’s tail.
(“I prefer: 'Snow White by the
tit' --
but that’s just a personal preference.”)
Note: If you’re late for tea, you’ll never overthrow the crown.

a language.
How
The Real Deal Man Holds To Awakening.
The
way to swat Tsetse flies is to not hold them in your mind.
(“I am always annoyed when I hear simple solutions offered to problems
which
I have found formidably complex,”
after
making this statement the speaker seemed to ponder it for a bit
-- then asked:
“I
wonder if this has caused me to miss things that could have been helpful?”
Being
irritated has facilitated more men’s escape from prison than has
a
thousand cakes with notes baked inside.
(Remember:
A tip to the wise is the same as a tip to nitwits.
“That’s what I love about living where I do: Everything costs the same!
--
whether
it’s shoddy and useless
-- or extremely
shoddy and useless --
doesn’t
matter: it all costs the same. [You
gotta love it here!]”
One
man’s private name for DoingTheThing
is: “Compared To What?!”)
In
the hallway outside the city’s International
Pastimes Convention
one
delegate was overheard saying to another:
“The
biggest pleasure in laughing at someone else’s interest is that
it’s
not really funny.”
Public
Weather (As In Temperament) Prognostications.
Dull
forecasts apply only to dull people.
One
chap insists that he would not be:
“As we see him now”
had
he not let one part of his brain: “Get
the better of him.”
On
one world they do not allow children
-- even in harmless sport --
to
interchange the words: “river,”
and: “flow.”
The
king of verbs is always being subtly threatened by the chamberlain of nouns.
You
can only be bedazzled by dreams by being a sleeper --
the
mere act of sleeping won’t do it.
(Put
another way): Being a dropped rock doesn’t make you dense --
being a rock does.
(“I personally find it aggravating to have something I didn’t understand
--
restated,
but that’s just me.”)
Only
the man-who-knows --
understands
what he's actually talking about.
