One man lived in two cities on opposite sides of a river,
which were connected by a bridge, which in fact is mostly where he lived.
…And a reporter flying overhead in a news 'copter reported, "I don't get it."

 

It's most difficult to sew up a rip in the seam in the seat of your pants
when there are two leg openings available, and you keep trying to use them both.
...And a philosopher prowling the river in a garbage scow predicted, "I don't get it."

A man who builds a house with only two rooms will never be satisfied in a third one.
...And a drywall man, putting a good finish to himself, reflected:
"The door jambs don't get it, the spreader doesn't get it, the blocking doesn't get it,
and for damn sure the casing -- the coverup, cure-all for all mis-cuts and mal-alignments -- doesn't get it. Or...wait a minute -- maybe it does! Which not only makes sense in the extraordinary realm, but would also explain much back in the routine room of the mind."

When a child, one boy asked for a guitar; his father instead told him to

Myth tells of a man who died and went to apply for his afterlife reward,
andwas confronted with a claim that he had not had the proper relationship
between "seriousness" and his "thinking," to which he responded that
"contraire," he had indeed taken his thinking quite seriously, to which he
was responded to with the counter that there was the problem -- he'd taken
it too seriously.
Well...he pondered this for a minute, then said, "Well, on that basis, you
can't win, can you?" And it was pointed out to him that he should have noticed
this about thinking back when he had the chance to do something about it.
...(This was not at all the kind of afterlife he'd imagined.)

The value in studying extraordinary ideas, for those seeking extraordinary awareness,
is in helping get their minds off themselves.

At the normal level, all data is bullshit data,
while at the secret level,
the data there appears an exception to this.
In the end, all it turns out to be is exceptional, bullshit data.
You can either comprehend this now, or comprehend it later,
but rest assured, if there is a later for you in all this,
you will comprehend it eventually.
