One
man mused: “The biggest attraction of non commercial television is
the
lack of commercials, while with commercial tv it often is
the commercials,”
and
his mind spoke up: “That is the same situation we have concerning my
continual
expression of self interest and glorification, yet about it you are not
near
so magnanimous --
what’s up with you, Chief Dill Bow?”
A
man with nothing worthwhile to think about will think about wealth,
and
his inner picture of himself.
In
an outspeak against the government a man stood before the city and declared,
(concerning censorship): “Prohibiting people from reading certain books,
or
saying certain things, brands them as either fools or slaves” --
then
waited -- in
vain --
for any of the people to object to his comment.
Everyone objects to change -- unless it makes you drunker or ditzier.
When
he heard it said that the nature of a country is determined by the character
of
the
people and not the form of its government, one man ruminated:
“Same
as with the genetic origins of the mental based voice that speaks for a
man
in
spite of its claims to the contrary.”
Note:
Only buildings that exist can be torn down.
Doers
change the tangible world:
thinkers
attempt to describe the intangible one,
(which
they both have unknowingly created).
Everyone
has three different intelligences: the one others believe he has;
the
one he imagines he has, and the one he has.
(Guess
which one men wish was their real and only one?)
One
steamy summer day some young gods were hangin’ out, and one of them
said: “What’ll we do?” and another said: “I don’t know,” then a third spoke
up:
“My
dad has a barn he’s not using,” and another joined in:
“My
mom can make costumes,” then up jumped another:
“And
my uncle used to be in vaudeville --
Hey! --
let’s put on a Creation!”
(Preceding
every comment one man likes to say:
“I
simply cannot exaggerate this enough...”)
Two groups oppose change: those currently happy, and those not.
‘Tis
rumored that in one city a man has discovered the secret to having more
garbage than he had stuff to begin with.
(Remember
the myth that says you will not be allowed entry to heaven with any
earthly
leftovers secreted in your pockets.)
One
sign of whether you are awake to what is really going on
is
if you have any interest in your I.Q.
In
a reflecting field a man looked around and thought: “Either the ancient
philosophers were correct and: Character
is destiny --
or else they had it backwards,”
(and
he attacked a cloverleaf!)
The
intelligence of the man-who-knows cannot be measured or even seen by
those
without it.
One
use of government is to give men something impersonal to be mad at.
“Not unlike man’s natural born thinking, eh Dad?!”
In
a curious attempt apparently to seduce himself, the non speaking part of
one
man’s nervous system said to the conscious area in his brain:
“Hey
big boy --
close that door –
I’ve
got what you’re looking for.”
(Maybe it wasn’t so curious at all.)
One
guy says he’s decided to measure the progress of his life by the fact that
while
he still hates everyone --
he is no longer bothered by the fact.
When
he first heard the term: Rape
of the mind, a man pondered:
“How
do you rape a willing whore?”
There
are two requirements for an idea to be dangerous:
first
you must either find it deplorable or else wickedly appealing,
and
secondly, it must come from someone else.
City
Police Work.
If
you can be shamed --
they can arrest you.
Another
thing:
if
you don’t tell other people anything about yourself you can’t use it against
you later.
The
difference between acts and facts is that needs are essential,
and
explanations merely entertaining.
No
question about it: When things get bad enough --
you just gotta talk about it!
(Unless of course you’re a nervous-system-rebel, or some other kind of
nut.)
In
times of contention (all the time) the king is never concerned with civilian
casualties.
(And
in a show of support: the cats have announced a memorial service to honor
all
the innocent, fallen mice.)
“Don’t
you listen to that tripe, sonny --
your hormones will gobble up your neurons
in
a new york hot flash.”
“I don’t know professor --
it’s all so confusing?!”
“Read
and consider each part of it separately
-- ‘til it makes sense
--
then
smoosh ‘em all back together again and let the good times roll.”

In
an attempt to alleviate some ordinary people’s concern about his unusual
behavior one man said:
“What
I was just doing is what you would call an:
experiment --
except it wasn’t.”
Outside
the city’s religious institutions commonly appeared a chap who offered
up
his
brand of spiritual insight, one day proclaiming:
“The
burden of belief is entirely on followers;
mountain
snows do not subsequent streams ponder,”
and
a man just exiting the establishment said to a friend:
“I don’t get it: what does it mean?”
“I
don’t think you really want to know.”
The
children on one world have a chant they squeal as they skip rope,
regarding
the adults’ concept of cultural progress:
“The thin (who’re behind)
have this little rhyme,
that the: ‘Avant garde,
run on lard,’
while the serious ahead
live always in dread.”
(Damn smartass kids.)
Ultimate

One
man who went on a visit --
STAYED!
All
real
problems (assuming such exist) come from eternity;
the
phony personal ones are all time
driven.
“Well
yeah! --
I’m okay for the moment --
but that don’t mean jack
-- you just wait;
you
don’t know me like I do.”
“Don’t you mean to say that I don’t know life
like you do?”
“Same
thing. (Oops!
--
did I say that?!)”
In
one city the cornerstone of their leading literary institution bore the
inscription: “When Uncertain
--
Be Ironic.”
(On
one planet the area of the brain’s consciousness naturally activated in
all at birth

called: “Old Pickled.”)
If
in the affairs of man you seem to discover a fact that contradicts another
fact,
you
still don’t get what facts are.
(“O! the foot fact connected to the

A
certain religion decided to rename itself: “The
Carbonation In The Cola Of Life,”
but
a threatened law suit put the kibosh on that
soon
enough!
One
mayor became so frustrated with qualifiers that he drove his partner from
town.
“A
man with a single mind is like a great city with a grand boulevard
running
down its center.”
“I don’t think that one has any metaphorical significance whatever!”
“Okay:
what if I said that such a man is like a gigantic garbage truck?…”
An
e-mail came in from someone who says he enjoyed a story in yesterday’s
News concerning a place where men are allowed to successfully defend themselves
against
all charges of wrongdoing by saying: “My hormones made me do it,”
but
wants to know if this includes even intellectual acts.
(Query
On The Q.T.: Did his hormones cause
him to ask that?)
One
man was so good at putting names and descriptions on things
and
locking them permanently into confining verbal/mental concepts
that
he sometimes called himself: Norman
"Steel
Trap" Clature.
There
may be some hope for a man who will not listen to anybody,
(but
you have to take the word anybody
to the MAX!)
