ONCE IT MAKES SENSE  --
EVERYTHING DOES
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The Official Journal Of The One-Eyed/I'd Man

Only an extremely ordinary person is interested in the subject of other men
and groups being wrong in their ideas.
 
 
 

Man’s Yellow Circuit invented such things as geiger counters to protect
the Red Circuit from danger;
its mythologies (of all kinds: religion & the social sciences) do the same for Blue Circuit.
 
 
 

Conversation.
“Though the speaker never realizes it: A man cannot start talking about how great
he is without quickly sounding like a fool.”
    “No matter who?”
“You are perhaps the one exception.”
 
 
 

Original thought is better than almost everything man can name:
much superior to what he calls: “The truth” about non-tangible matters.
 
 
 

Man’s automatic-consciousness is for the inner rebel indeed quite a deal:
A Five Dollar Value For Only Three Million Bucks!                                (Wow!)
 
 
 

Doctor Hormones addresses the city matter of Romance:
“You must pretend to be more in love than you are,
since no one is in love as much as they say they are;
without this harmless subterfuge  –  this baby will never get off the ground.”
 
 
 

One by one,
as they are conceived,
life’s local conditions install in all of the dense (sorry) the ordinary,
the following silent, secret message in their city area brain cells:
    “You can trust a blind man;
      you can trust a deaf man;
      you can trust a mute man;
      and you can trust a crippled man, but other than them  –  forget about it.”
In the city, conditions are too intense to be taking any chances;
standard consciousness cannot afford the luxury of fooling around.
The mental mother city does not want her little ones wandering off into the woods where they might get gobbled up by god knows what!
 
 
 

Dialogue.
“How can you tell that an Economist is a dunce?  –   He admits to being an economist.”
    “Could we include Theologians in that?”
“Sir –  it’s open to everyone      (particularly those in the social sciences.)”
 
 
 

After driving all day alone on a long trip, a man had a new theory when he reached his destination: “My thinking is that a nervous-system-rebel would be upset at anyone
he knew personally who got sick (which at first to even me, sounded pretty rotten)
but I further wager that he would be really pissed at his self if he did.

Hold that thought –  I’ve got to get to a bathroom.”






“Dear Miss Inner Etiquette: Every time I get in close to my mind, it smells funny?!”
 
 
 

The resident thinker-cum-anthropologist down at The Ole Sorehead’s Bar
lays his latest on us:
“Kings build gigantic tombs to honor themselves ‘cause they  –   among ALL people  –   know fer sure that they ain’t comin’ back.”
 
 
 

How Mind Handles Things.
Whenever this one guy would think about life as ‘tis generally lived by men  –
he would feel depressed;
he stopped thinking about it.
 
 
 

One benefit of rebel consciousness is that with it, it’s harder to tell when
time is running out.
(The past observed: “And that is why I am more reliable.”)
 
 
 

Definition.
Metaphors: Symbols with an escape clause.
Dialogue.
“Which do you like best: Allegories or exposés?”
    “Allegorical exposés.”
“Like outing Achilles?”
    “Better still: consciousness.”
“Yeah!”
 
 
 

The Wake Up Club: Certainly the one place in the Universe where
you can’t come-as-you-are.
 
 
 

Ways To Tell That You Want To Believe Rather Than Know.
You want to travel to mystical locales; read books; have heroes; quote others
and present statistics and personal anecdotes to support some point you
have the urge to prove.
 
 
 

What would ordinary consciousness have to talk about if not for the subject of
what’s wrong.
 
 
 

If you understand that no one but you understands fully what you’re talking about,
and it’s of no concern to you  –  you may well be on your way.
 
 
 

Cultural Pillow Talk.
Whispered the first reality: “Forever is a long-g-g time.”
     “But not,” replied the second, “long enough!”
Cosmic Fact: When a thing is going nowhere  –  it takes longer.
 
 
 

Nothing is as useless as a politician out of office,
or an idea that you've already abandoned.
 
 

When a man with cancer heard fellow patients complaining of the standard regimen of radiation and chemotherapy he thought: “Hell, if you can’t stand the treatments,
don’t get the illness,” and him being a guy struggling to awaken, chuckled to his self,
knowing what he was really talking about.
