No critic of man ever comprehends what he is saying and doing,
yet he performs a task absolutely essential to the normal life of collective man.



Everyone is born with the mental desire to beat-dead-horses,

and Life is considerate in that everybody comes with their own dead horse.



(Another example of):
How Things COULD Work,

If They Actually DID Work, Like Men BELIEVE That They Work.
As his hairline receded, one man simply moved closer to where he lived.
And upon hearing of this, a chap in the front row stood and shouted:
“Stupidity plays no favorites,” (and immediately a man in the back arose to contradict it).



One ole sorehead’s latest grouse:

“They just made up alphabetical-order so’s some of us would always be last in line.”
Question: How might such thinking similarly interpret the sequential nature of time?
   (And a security guard said to take a number and wait your turn.)



One chap complained to the Building Superintendent:

“The people who live below me are extremely vain  –
and the ones above, astoundingly stupid!”
   (And several people immediately wanted to know where they could find such a Superintendent.)



After purchasing his first autobiography and reading a few pages, he slung the book across the room: “Phooey!  Mirrors are much cheaper  –  and they lie better.”



After the people in one land became aware of how poorly their local-god spelled  –

his words lost most of their impact.



The weak refer to themselves more than anyone else

(though commonly presenting themselves as being strong).



Quiz Confab.

“What is it that secretly most bothers ordinary men?”
    “That they can hostilely spit in the ocean and the ocean doesn’t notice.”
“You're just using that as an example of something more extensive, right?!”



Whilst wandering aimlessly down a city side street, a man was suddenly struck:

“If there were someone who could truly explain-life  –  do I really want to hear it?”



In this morning’s email was found this:

“Dear Sir: I have been reading your Daily News for quite a while and some days
it seems somber and serious while on other days there seems to be a constant underpinning of humor to it;
is this due to the writing or to me?

Respectfully Yours,” etc.



Whenever it rains, one guy gets the blues.

   (He says he’s saving up to buy his own rain machine.)



Kyroot’s 12 Step Recovery Program In One Time-Saving Stride.

Those who talk about their illness don’t really want to get well.
   (And someone asks: “Does this include all types of sickness, such as being asleep & distracted?”)



So advised a father, a son:

”You can either stand-up dead, or stand-up alive;
the costs of the two are the same, but the pay-offs are incomparable.



When it was absolutely determined that there were no raisins for the breakfast oatmeal,
the rebel sergeant gave these words to the recruits:

“When you're born, local-conditions slip a cheap billfold in your back pocket,
and in this billfold is a crudely reproduced photograph of a person who appears to be you;
it is up to the revolutionist to discover all of this for his self,

and after he does….well, you should be able to figure out what he does from there.”



Follow-Up To A Previous News Item.

Everyone refers to their self just as much as is necessary,
(it’s just not as necessary for a man who can independently think).
 



After hearing a physician say that he could derive some diagnostic clues even from the irrational ranting of a hypochondriac, a man wondered:

“Does my brain do anything similar with my conscious mind?”



he first time one man took drugs, when they got to his brain,

his neurons’ initial reaction was to laugh, and not the marijuana-giggles, but to
laugh at what was going on ‘twixt his thinking and the so-called recreational drugs.
Only the nervous-systems of those with the innate potential of realizing what’s really going on find both pleasure and tragedy humorous.



Conversation.
“Could men’s lives be explained chemically?”
   “Yes.”
“Well why aren't they?”
   “They are.”
“Well I've never heard it.”
   “Few have.”



If your mind is no larger than your head,
the Great Secret will remain beyond your grasp.



Unconventional Ophthalmological Update.

Everything in man’s mental-only-reality turns into everything else  –
right before his unseeing I’s.



The ole man told the kid:

“Three things happen when you get unnecessarily serious about being alive:
You become frightened, you wet your pants, you soil your mind.”

Being perturbed over simply being here is par for the ordinary mind’s course,
the man who-knows, on the other hand,
sits out the routine game at the nineteenth hole.
