An
ad for that extraordinary hoofer, Human
Thought says:
“Keep
your eyes on the feet! – only two feet
–
yet,
tapping
out complex rhythms that should require four or more;
watch
those feet and see if something startling doesn’t eventually strike you
regarding
the sight you've been employing to watch them.”
Does
a fly have a thousand eyes? – or a thousand things it
needs to see? –
does
not one awake man have more ears than a whole herd of cows?
A
fish unaware of water can thus never understand the nature of H2O and
ergo
itself.
(“Pa pa, when I grow up can I have an ergo?”)
One man says that spotting wild grizzly bears behind his house somehow reminds him of the internal glimpses he sometimes catches of his self in a non-sleeping condition, (“Especially when the bears laugh,” he adds).
A
chap reflected: “Who can be the more hostile – a hungry man or a
full man?”
His
inner twin then injected: “Better still, ponder:
Who
can be the more hostile – a stupid man or a knowing man?”
Then
their triplet nosed in with the observation that the last question was
too obvious
to
even think about --
to which their quadruplet reacted:
“That’s
easy to say – when you're not the stupid man.”
One
man claims he's being surreptitiously drugged – by his own local
conditions.
The
defense of the impotent is always timid.
Even
when normal men say they want to hear new music,
they
mean as long as it sounds a lot like that old piece they like so much.
The
defense of the impotent is always timid --
yet efficient,
particularly
in the instance of the human intellect.
Civic
Self-Esteem.
Nothing
is dearer to the heart of the city than a torpid man – proud of
his achievement!
Notes
one lay-about in the park:
”In
the city, a desperate man can be a happy man –
it’s
only those around him who may have some cause for concern.”
Conflicting
Report From The Surgical Wing.
Life,
the one known, sure fatal operation, still coos to all under its
scalpel:
“There
there – it’ll be all
right.”
(Well, Nurse Perkins said it was
conflicting?!?)
(“Luke, do you ever mull on the fact that only a few men at any given
time
throughout the whole history of man have the needed inner eyesight
to actually see for themselves that nothing in all of Life
is in conflict?”
“Ah! – but I must disagree…”
[In his
spare time, Luke often acts as a satirical highlight to his
conversational
partner's comments, some of which
he enjoys and benefits from more than others.]
“Paw, is this why it is always acceptable to keep your potentially
meaningful
dialogues inside your own head!?”)
Everything
that makes-sense to ordinary minds obviously doesn’t always
actually
make-sense, while to a mind which has awakened to what is going on with
Life,
everything
makes sense and that’s the end of the discussion.
From
The Ole Cowpoke’s Saddlebag Of Rangewise Tips.
Physical
suicide is a quick form of verbal self-reference.
Only
in city institutions is a man with meaningless credentials preferable
to
a man
with
none.
Corollary:
In the second-reality, even outlaws become institutionalized.
What the city can't handle – it swallows,
and Chef Ralph
can eat anything --
since all he eats is his own intangible dishes.
Your
Genes Won't Get You Out Of Papua Anymore.
It
takes a village of dolts to raise a dolt.
It
can't rain on the earth without the earth,
and you can't have consciousness
without thoughts
(unless of course you’ve somehow discovered what’s
going on).
Inside
Tips For Would-Be City Leaders.
When
you don’t know what you're talking about – talk about
yourself,
and
when you have no idea what should be done next –
talk
to the people about the gods.
You
can make yourself as sick by starving as you can from overeating;
a
nervous-system-revolutionist cannot overstarve.
(“But that’s not what I was asking about!?!”)
As
he lounged about the periphery of
Life’s mental ballroom, a man
delved
into
the
matching handbook and found this definition: “Conversation:
Aural dancing.”
While
to ordinary minds, things of the past can seem to return,
for
the outlier, things gone can be forever done-with.
(“God! – that’s a relief!”
“Regarding what?”
“Nothing.”)
A
Rainy Day Recreation.
If
you take the initials of your name, and of your city and state,
and
you fit them into the spelling of the word: “original,”
it
will come out saying: “special-fun”

dictionary,
