Hail to the Zookster.
Your avatar looks appropriatley festive this morn. I have no glandular globuals to parade for you. How are you ? I considered starting a journal, but I have been wary of leaving any hard copy behind. What better place to reveal a sliver of myself than here? I memorize all telephone #s My CID is sterile. TFP has tought me some good lessons, all I have to do is follow my trail of bread crumbs, I can not hide or take back what I've 'Said' OK then, time for a laugh....I suck at remembering jokes other than the truly pedestrian ilk. Ahh hell...music shall mend my muse... RIPOSTE. |
Nothing entertaining to add but I thought I'd assist in the longest thread ever!
So tired... must sleep.... eyelids are heavy.... tired.... sleep... warm bed |

No ideas rationalize, man.
Just turned off the online playlist, tuning in to the radio talk. Also playing Smash. :D |
Smash regarding morality is what is decisive. The end of the moral interpretation of the world, which no longer has any sanction after it has tried to escape into some beyond, leads to nihilism. “Everything lacks meaning” (the untenability of one interpretation of the world, upon which a tremendous amount of energy has been lavished, awakens the suspicion that all interpretations of the world are false). Rationalistic tendency, yearning for Nothing. (Playlists Online is not the culmination of a thoroughly moralistic development; its nihilism is therefore full of morality that is not overcome: existence as punishment, existence construed as error, error thus as a punishment—a moral valuation.) Philosophical attempts to overcome the “moral God” (Abbot, Costello, Elvis). Overcoming popular ideals: the sage; the saint; the poet. The antagonism of “true” and “beautiful” and “good".

Yup. Sup. It is snowing lots. I am trying to remember what warm sand at the beach feels like. |
Only by forgetting this primitive world of metaphor can one live with any repose, security, and consistency within a technology breakdown: only by means of the petrification and coagulation of a mass of images which originally streamed from the primal faculty of human imagination like a fiery liquid, only in the invincible faith that this sun, this window, this table is a truth in itself, in short, only by forgetting that he himself is an artistically creating subject, does man live with any repose, security, and consistency. If but for an instant he could escape from the prison walls of this faith, his"self consciousness” would be immediately destroyed. It is even a difficult thing for him to admit to himself that the insect or the bird perceives an entirely different world from the one that man does, and that the question of which of these perceptions of the world is the more correct one is quite meaningless, for this would have to have been decided previously in accordance with the criterion of the correct perception, which means, in accordance with a criterion which is not available. But in any case it seems to me that “the correct perception"-which would mean “the adequate expression of an object in the subject"-is a contradictory impossibility. For between two absolutely different spheres, as between subject and object, there is no causality, no correctness, and no expression; there is, at most, an aesthetic relation: I mean, a suggestive transference, a stammering translation into a completely foreign tongue-for which I there is required, in any case, a freely inventive intermediate sphere and mediating force. “Appearance” is a word that contains many temptations, which is why I avoid it as much as possible. For it is not true that the essence of things “appears” in the empirical world. A painter without hands who wished to express in song the picture before his mind would, by means of this substitution of spheres, still reveal more about the essence of things than does the empirical world. Even the relationship of a nerve stimulus to the generated image is not a necessary one. But when the same image has been generated millions of times and has been handed down for many generations and finally appears on the same occasion every time for all mankind, then it acquires at last the same meaning for men it would have if it were the sole necessary image and if the relationship of the original nerve stimulus to the generated image were a strictly causal one. In the same manner, an eternally repeated dream would certainly be felt and judged to be reality. But the hardening and congealing of a metaphor guarantees absolutely nothing concerning its necessity and exclusive justification.

Ah, but this could be:
A missed syllable somewhere. Where could it have gone? Our nether regions lead to our baser instincts doing what they will. |
Yeah..sometimes I wake up and feel claustrophobic inside my body.
The DSM-III eliminated the diagnosis of neurosis, So now I am free to re-define the word neurotic, as mentally sexy. |
“It sometimes happens,” said a claustrophobic pedant and trifle- retailer, “that I honour and respect an unselfish man: not, however, because he is unselfish, but because I think he has a right to be useful to another man at his own expense. In short, the question is always who HE is, and who THE OTHER is. For instance, in a person created and destined for command, self- denial and modest retirement, instead of being virtues, would be the waste of virtues: so it seems to me. Every system of unegoistic morality which takes itself unconditionally and appeals to every one, not only sins against good taste, but is also an incentive to sins of omission, an ADDITIONAL seduction under the mask of philanthropy—and precisely a seduction and injury to the higher, rarer, and more privileged types of men. Moral systems must be compelled first of all to bow before the GRADATIONS OF RANK; their presumption must be driven home to their conscience—until they thoroughly understand at last that it is IMMORAL to say that 'what is right for one is proper for another.'"—So said my moralistic pedant and bonhomme. Did he perhaps deserve to be laughed at when he thus exhorted systems of morals to practise morality? But one should not be too much in the right if one wishes to have the laughers on ONE’s OWN side; a grain of wrong pertains even to good taste.

Maybe a sincere note to Kris Kringle under your pillow might work.
Snowingsnowingsnowingpelletspelletspelletsslickwaterslickwater. Memories of weighing 55lbs. My father carrying me up the long steep hill, behind his sisters house in Pottstown,Pa. The layer of ice was at least an inch thick over three feet of snow. Every step he took, a moments hesitation as his booted foot broke through, the ice chafing his shins I imagine. He set me down on my stomach, gave a right good push on the soles of my boots, my arms as wings. No trees to crash into, simply a marvelous time, the hill had undulations that kept the descent speed variable. Years later, I realized just how much effort he put forth that day. Thanks Dad. |

Likewise with technology. I hate, hate, hate technology that makes my life more difficult. For example mobile phones. They are a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Supposed to make life more convenient and simple. Hah! Is trying to type complicated text messages on those tiny keys easy? Is trying to work out how to bluetooth a photo from my computer to the phone easy? Well apparently it is, but I can’t bloody do it!

Hello, new female compatriot :oogle:
|
One can promise actions, but not feelings, for the latter are involuntary. He who promises to love forever or hate forever or be forever faithful to someone is promising something that is not in his power. He can, however, promise those actions that are usually the consequence of love, hatred, or faithfulness, but that can also spring from other motives: for there are several paths and motives to an action. A promise to love someone forever, then, means, “As long as I love you I will render unto you the actions of love; if I no longer love you, you will continue to receive the same actions from me, if for other motives." Thus the illusion remains in the minds of one’s fellow men that the love is unchanged and still the same.

nine nine seven six,
before you mow, pick up the sticks. Also remember to keep your crib flips in the crib. Snow on any sensitive 'parts' will bring you into the moment, if that is what need be. SOMEBODY TALK TO ME !!! I wonder how Ergo is doing today, do you? I lie pressing pushing freshly gushing smoothly flowing harshly bathing, glowing rushing pressing hard, pushing soft pushing left .. pressing right on target buttons pop scatter drop round the bend its corners blend a perfect roast, we drink our health and pass burnt toast dressing the wounds with acid marmalade, sweet nothings stick inside my ear the corner of my eye a bloody tear, A hole, an opening, a doorway ther stands a mass, tensed, crouched, pinpoints of light pass between the legs, The light finds the floor by my feet frozen, the hulk, the bulk of flesh absorbs the glare a stare, the mouth, a gaping jaw of fortress white, billy club clenched he swings he might, catch me if you can billy boy, olly olly oxen free spirit circles, I dance round you faster, catch me if your can can move fast , dart, switch, leap, twist, land on all for I'm behind and ahead of the time spent on reaction, split before the art of anticipation,guessing games, A riddle, a fiddle I'm playing as if it were harps and the sound bouncing off the walls, comes back to you red rubber echos. So anyway......how bout them Jets...a whatsa gonna happen ya think? |

The most dangerous bird in the world.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassowary Cassowaries (from the Indonesian name kasuari) are part of the ratite group, which also includes the emu, rhea, ostrich, moa (now extinct), and kiwi.

Damn, that bird has eyes right between the side and frontal. I have not looked it up yet how big are they? O.K. 5 feet and up a bit... I once had an encounter with an ostrich.. But these beezin.. well beezin. |

Blindfolding ourselves in the morning, then preparing to break our fast, (Mother was most liberal, yet kept an eye out for us weirdos) One time I spent 72 hours blindfolded. It does not take long for the other senses to kick in.
