Men
of ordinary mind are only deeply tickled by food, sex or feelings of spirituality,
(which
is like mistaking pasta for pornography);
the
man who gets-to-the-bottom-of-things is funnified in a fashion unknown
to
everyone
else. (Except maybe a coati-mundi in a cutaway coat).
Conversation.
“I
have devoted thirty years of personal research to the problem.”
“And?”
“And
what?”
Once
he was old enough to realize the implications of not having been born
part
of the privileged class, one man (raising a pistol to his head) said:
“I’ll
take my chances on my next time around.”
(Good
thing his primary interest in life wasn’t wanting to wake up.)
From
The Show Biz Front.
One
of the first questions he was asked in the interview was:
“What
drew you to the role of playing yourself?”
“After
thirty years of living in a repressive state, I am certainly ready for
freedom,”
so
declared a man under the domination of a foreign power
(who
by the way lives right above you.
P.S.
Not all stories about governing are about political affairs.)
Confab.
“Just
because you
don’t understand something
doesn’t
mean there is nothing there to be understood.”
“Yes it does.”
“Really!?
Wow! – I didn’t know that.”
Question:
What could be more satisfying to a captive’s secondary soul
than
to deliriously ride the crest of the prison’s: Thought
For The Day.
One
man’s private approach to dealing with ordinary people is C
& N:
being
cordial & non committal.
(“You could act the same way toward your own innate thoughts.”)
Captain
You-Surely-Knew-That
stopped in to say that
everyone
tries to appear hipper than they really are.
He
then flew off to continue spreading his various important
(though
should-be-obvious) comments for the betterment of all of humanity.
As
soon as he heard the opening words of the ad:
“You
may shake, sweat or feel panicky…” he leaped to his feet and hollered:
“I’ll
buy it!”
(Operating perhaps
under the philosophy: Better safe
than stupid.)
If
you run with a toy you don’t really like --
you’re more prone to drop it.
(“Okay! – I’ve had it! I demand that you
tell me right now what this has to do with
waking up!?”)
Numbers.
The
authority of three lies in its complete coverage of spatial reality;
the
impact of two is in its control of things polarized,
and
the power of one is in its exclusivity.
“Stand back! – make way! – here comes
the king!”
Yes it's me – me and I,
and all must submit – to me, by and by;
numbers can reveal – what letters cannot see,
is to me that you must come – for objectivity.
It is all in my hands – it is all in your mind,
the knowledge that you seek – is predetermined found.
Here comes the king – here by gawd, I come!”
In
the middle of trying to make his point the speaker said:
“Let
me tell you something personal about me in this regard…”
and
the audience as one cried out: “No!” and arose to leave –
only
to realize that heads have no doors.
If
anecdotes about one’s life were
as interesting as men appear to believe they will be to those who hear
them, then why don’t you
laugh about missing your train
at
the time it happens?
(“All right mister know-it-all, then how come history and ecstasy rhyme?”)
Says
one guy:“I never feel more embarrassed about my stupidity than when I
catch
myself thinking about how embarrassing is someone else’s stupidity.”
The
kid asked the ole man: “Are you really as nice as you seem?”
“Don’t be a smart ass: you are the one person in the whole world who
knows the answer to that.”
You
have to be
a person of your own to be able to treat others IMpersonally.
The
brain is a scale – and men are born with the embedded impression
that
its
conscious part is a butcher with an unlimited meat supply.
(“Here comes the ham! – here comes the ham!”)
Dialogue.
“Words
are to reality as music is to dancing.”
“I would say not even that much.”
“Okay
– I can go that far.”
(And
in steps the Maxim Man
to mark this moral):
“No
matter how far you stretch words around reality,
they
can always go a bit further (as in): denying what they’ve just said,
(now
ask yourself): Can mere reality do that?
No-o-o-o!
So!
--
let us bring to a conclusion all this churlish vilification of words
– okay? –
--
all right.”
One
historian says he scans each decade for a headline exemplary of the era,
(he
has a half brother who does the same for every real time instant.
“Just think, if I was here now – where I would be.”)
To
think beyond horizons you must first be able to recognize the horizons,
(and
do note): those in confinement have a severely limited view.
Adopting
a philosophy
can not only be fun, but it can also keep you from thinking,
(that
is): in the manner of non captives.
Real
escape information eats its own footprints.
(“Is that why it is so hard to find maps that are practical?”)
Having
an escape philosophy
can save you from ever trying to actually get free.
Deeds
don’t traumatize the civilized – words do;
King
Arthur can be psychologically harmed
by verbal assaults, but not Charlemagne.
(Just one of
the several benefits of being an actual person.)
