It's not what you know but who,
it's not who you know but where,
it's not where you know but when,
it's not when you know but why,
and for revolutionist purposes
it's not why, but a mixture of the five....
(and although 2008 is a bit young
with no established vintage,
its poignant aroma and up-scale sparkle
augur well for future crops).

 

The cunning anticipation
of information
is itself information.

One guy calls knowledge a "temporary cessation of thinking."

If you ask most people, "What they mean?"
they'll tell you -- they'll be wrong, but they'll tell you.

 

 

For Those Still Interested in Such Rumors:
It's said that they have eternity locked up in a closet,
just over the hill.

Laying down the daily paper and turning off the TV, the kid asked,
"Why do they call it the 'news' when there's never anything new?"

I heard tell of a fellow
so ahead-of-the-game
that his thirst could be slaked
by hearing the pouring of water.

Only unstable myths are worth re-telling.

Men invented "things" simply because they couldn't do otherwise.

While reading, an ole sorehead came upon this notion,
"True innocence is in not knowing we have sinned."
and the surly one was deeply impressed and amazed,
until he realized this was written by someone from his own planet.

Having heroes can save you a lot of time.

A fellow at the party last night told me that it was only through the persistent urging of his friends that he agreed to appear in one of these news items at all.

While ordinary people ordinarily using the word enthusiasm
would think of it as an "agreeable emotion," at the revolutionist level,
enthusiasm and comfort are not synonymous.

Whilst noshing at the neighborhood Nosh Nook
on New Years at noon, a natty historian nodded to me and noted:
"So many astounding things happened in the sixteen hundreds
that it became inevitable they have the seventeens." Yes indeed.

One guy's most common cry was, "Hey, there it comes again!!"
