One
father incessantly pestered a son:
“Don’t
you get it?! Come on, really! – don’t you get
it!?”
He
kept this up day after day, month after month, year after year until
the
lad suddenly saw-the-light, and understood the purpose of the
elder’s
relentless badgering –
and
realized that he was never
going to get it.
The
answer to the certain-few’s singular question consists of:
finally
understanding the question.
(“That doesn’t sound right to me!”
Well said sir, it ain't right
--
it simply can't be --
now can it!?)
“Okay!”
barked the Sarge, “You recruits pick up all that loose info and
loitering
incongruities; toss ‘em here in a pile and we’ll let the Lieutenant
sort
it all out later.”

Hormones
Continue To Dominate In Some Men’s Thinking.
When
he heard the proverb:
“There
is nothing the body can suffer that the soul may not profit from,”
a
man pondered: “What a shame it doesn’t go the other way around –
then
we’d have something worth proverbin’ about.”
(“All right, tell me this: how can hormones not dominate!?”
If
you have to ask, then you're correct.)
On
some days one man’s speech would express only emotions,
while
on alternate days it would only convey information;
he
prosecuted this plan with fidelity and vigor –
yet
no one ever noticed what he was doing.
(“Pa pa, is that how our planet got its name?”)
Exclaimed
one chap: “I never feel more alive than when I'm ill,”
and
someone who heard this mused: “Imagine how excited he’ll be when he
dies.”
Question:
“Say! – Where’s it written that you have to be ordinary?”
Answer:
“Why in the
Great Ordinary Book of course.”
Fill

One
man says that in his younger days one of his joys was singing-to-his-self
(that
is until he finally realized he was tone deaf.
[“Luke, how many folks you figure ever even get that far in
their
realizin’?”])
One
warthog explains that his entire life changed when he finally saw his
reflection
– and then knew for his self, how he looked.
(“Son, even if you presently don’t know all the answers, know this:
‘absurdity’ is the actual name of all the pressing mortal
questions.”
Noted
a King: “If I was interested in anything serious,
I'd
be reading about weapons of death --
and not about man’s spiritual life.”)
One
kid told a playmate that the most memorable advice he ever received
from
his father was: “Don’t count your chickens.”
(“Is this one of those stories that are supposed to highlight
some
feature of how
neurons operate?”)
Said
a father to a son:
“What
you need for your undertaking (if you can properly translate my
words)
is
to be hard-headed and pliable-minded.”
As
he sat in the dressing room looking at the fight card, he said to his
manager:
“Okay,
I'll tell you one more time: before I get in the ring with information
like that,
somebody's
gotta assure me that the fix is in.”
Dialogue.
“When
a man works for his self at least he’ll finally get paid what he’s
worth.”
“Not necessarily.”
“I'm
talking about sane people.”
On
one planet, every morning at eleven, a voice declares world-wide:
“Everyone
already on the playground can remain there –
the
rest of you – back
to work!”
(And the second group never learns.)
In
many instances concerning first-reality affairs it can be to your
advantage
to
take
someone’s word for
something, but if you do so concerning any second-reality matter, you
merely
increase the travesty of your thinking.
In
some lands the concept of “A tyrant with a heart” seems anomalous,
while
in certain unconventional kingdoms he is the messiah
pro tem.
One
man keeps part of his controlled consciousness focused on a sore
inside
his cheek –
just a part!
As
the afternoon musers were propping up the agora, one of them said:
“Something
continues to bamboozle me: If the gods were our ancestors,
and
our ancestors are like our food, then are we like flesh they have fed
and
created,
or
are we like an endless act of eating?”
One
chap finally faced the fact that he simply wasn’t brittle enough to be
a Romantic .
If
there was such a creature as an actual teacher-of-awakening
he
would a person who tells original stories about man’s
storytelling.
(A
dry man who realizes that everyone else is unwittingly wet.)
