The Man With The Certain Interest In Consciousness
Never Forgets The Circus Parade Of Elephants  ---
Trunk To Tail To Trunk To Tail
_________________________


People are only interested in two things:
things that are entertaining, and things that are informative;
most people’s interest is limited to one  –   that’s just the way things are.
To be-asleep (that is: of ordinary understanding) is to have had your consciousness kidnapped  --  but you don't know by whom.
A man mentioned to his partner:
“I read that the whole trick to bending an iron bar or tearing a large book in half
is ever getting started.”
    “And the significance of that to awakening is?”
“I’m not sure............am I?”
Fact.
Everything that occurs in a closed system inescapably has two results;
normal human consciousness is a closed system.
Question.
What can be done in such conditions?
In one land, anything that can be said true of reality is also not true.
One of the more curious features of human life is the belief that a belief system
can exist apart from humans (all religions that is).
The Chemistry Of Existence.
Sexual lust is the boiling point of life.
The Shadow Chemistry.
The gnawing to awaken to the sexual lust of consciousness.
Men dream of pluralities, but marry monoliths.
Illness & Its Visibility
A man diagnosed with same said: “The nice feature of cancer is that you can’t see it.”
“Hey, that’s reminiscent of my consciousness’ unseen despicable condition.”
The state considered two choices: make announcements that they were going to
crack down on speeding drivers because of its concern for the people, or just remind drivers that speeding is against the law and that they will arrest you when you do it.
In his consciousness, the certain man is his own state and highway travelers.
One man, in an effort to curb his alcohol consumption at parties, started bringing a
case of beer with him to such affairs in which he had replaced the contents of half
the bottles with ginger ale so that he could still enjoy the ritual of opening a cold one,
but (depending on the chance of his selection) could throughout the evening
appear to be drinking while not actually doing so  –   but!  ---  the way it turned out was that once he started to imbibe, whenever he would open a bottle that contained soda,
he would immediately set it aside & open another until he found one filled with beer.
After discovering how this was fated to play out, he confided:
“I’m either too smart to be fooled by the likes of me,
or else I’m so stupid that I can't even fool myself; either way  --   it’s pretty sad.”
One voice said: “Hey –  we don’t have to take this,” and another responded:
“Yes we do,” and the first one said: “Hey –  you don’t count, you’re the same voice.”
In the city, just before it's too late  --  it's too early again.
Men like to write fiction for the same reason their life frustrates them.
If a man-who-knows writes fiction it is because his understanding of what his
actually represents, makes him smile.
Notes one chap: “The best part of being rich is that you have attorneys, accountants, managers, secretaries, etc to take care of all your personal business so that in essence, you personally have no business.
Believe me: it’s a neat way to live: sort of like the metaphysical feat of
having nothing on your mind  --  no thoughts to disrupt your consciousness.”
The rallying cry of one world is: “We don’t need no rallying cry!”
One man refers to his self as:  “My alleged  self.”
“Dear Mr. Advice: Since so many people never do what they really want to in life, should a person force their self to do so.
P.S. Does this question sound funny to you?!  Sincerely,” etc.
On one weird world no one ever says anything they didn't personally intend  to say.
Conversation.
“Is pretending to be creative the same as being so?”
    “Not the same, but as good as.”
“Then what’s the difference in something being the same-as, and as good-as?”
If you can’t manhandle language it will manhandle you.
Quote Of The Day.
“No man who can’t hold a meaningful conversation with his self will ever marry
a daughter of mine.  (Or son for that matter.”)
If you can’t manhandle language it will manhandle you.
One guy’s advice: “Don’t worry about it  –  you can always read  about it later.”
If you can’t manhandle language it will manhandle you.
One man always gets a good chuckle whenever he hears about books & courses concerning how to motivate dogs: “Hell, they should come take a lesson from mine,” he said (with no sound of pride).
The acid test is whether you can keep a hacky sack aloft in a moose stampede.
Some mornings after face-splashing and tooth-brushing one man will look at his self in the mirror over the bathroom sink and in the voice of a semi famous celebrity say:
“Do you know who I am?”   and will then reply: “I know who everyone is.”
On one really strange planet, what people think they said is what they actually said.
Definition.
Collective Man's Intellectual World: The only place in the universe where you can go broke spending someone else's money.
Dialogue.
“Everyone has a radio that will play forever on stations they didn’t choose
unless extraordinary action is undertaken.”
    “Hey  –   I already knew that.”
“Everybody does.”
    “I mean I knew it, but didn’t realize I did until you said it.”
“Yeah, same with everybody.”
    “Is there something that everybody doesn’t know?”
“Yes, one thing.”
    “Is it important?
“Can you spell: keystone.”
A man who understands language can say anything and mean it  --  and also not.
The ultimate proof is that you can solve a math problem in your head while
dancing the tango in a country & western bar.
During a pause in his workout at the gym a man said:
“I'll be glad when I am so old & decrepit that I will have no choice but to do nothing.”
In a sudden fit of either metaphorical commercial enlightenment,
or just commercial overload one man exclaimed to his self:
“Everyone in the city is a victim of a constipation conspiracy.”
He did not however specify who is behind it.
Ordinary minds want hot topics to think about:
rebel minds want to stay on the same old one;
forget finish lines  ---   just remembering to ride the horse suits the certain man fine.
