Be Kind

we are always asked
to understand the other person’s
viewpoint
no matter how
out-dated
foolish or
obnoxious.

one is asked
to view
their total error
their life-waste
with
kindliness,
especially if they are
aged.

but age is the total of
our doing.
they have aged
badly
because they have
lived
out of focus,
they have refused to
see.

not their fault?

whose fault?
mine?

I am asked to hide
my viewpoint
from them
for fear of their
fear.

age is no crime

but the shame
of a deliberately
wasted
life

among so many
deliberately
wasted
lives

is.

– Charles Bukowski

Unraveling the mystery of rock art...

Simple pleasures....

Almost best of all was to sit on a knoll, smoking and watch the animals feed. One never sees a horse so well as when he is grazing close by, intent upon the grass, oblivious of the man. Then one sees how he moves his ears, how he blows through his soft nostrils, how his casual movements are made. He moves from clump to clump, making his selections by standards of his own, never still, yet entirely free of the restlessness of a stalled horse, It is the essence of pastoral life. Cigarette smoke rises lazily in the hot air, the sun is comfortable upon one's bones, the gently moving animals make peace.

"Most Remarkable and Kindest Person You Would Wish To Meet" Dies Again or.....

...I could have sworn Pat Boone singing heavy metal was one of the signs of the Apocalypse.

For the 700th time this year "The Most Remarkable and Kindest Person You Would Wish To Meet" has sadly died.

This comes after the recent 475th death of "He was a great Man" and comes hot on the heals of the tragic demise of "He was the best son ever", who has now died 332 times so far this year.

Other multiple deaths include "She did so much for the community" (117 deaths) "He will be remembered for his smile and kindness" (83 deaths) and "He was a hard worker and great father" (29 deaths).

"It is amazing how many times these people die," said one confused man, "I mean every time I read the news I hear about them; isn't it about time "He really was a bit of cunt" died? Or how about "He really won't be missed as he did nothing of any consequence"?

At time of press the following people have not yet died "He was prolific at masturbating", "he probably deserved to fall of that cliff" and "he liked nothing more than beating his wife and shooting BB guns at cats".

Oh shit , not again....

“As far as plans went..."

"...it was like facing the zombie apocalypse with a nail file and a bag of Skittles. It might work, but chances were good that I'd die a horrible, painful death.
At least the end would be filled with fruity, candy goodness. And for my dramatic death scene I could whisper, in a creepy, quivery death rattle, taste the rainbow. Boy would those zombies be confused.”

CIA cryptographers reveal Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi's botched sex change op or.....

“I used to think the world was broken down by tribes,' But I know this isn't true. The world is only broken into two tribes: the people who are assholes and the people who are not.”

Langley, VA - Specialist code breakers at USA's Spook Central have uncovered what might be the complex psychological reason behind Islamic State Caliph's psychotic rants.

They say Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was born with two sets of genitals - one male, one female - nestling on the outside of an unusually discolored groin area.

The mutation probably occurred when the fledgling terrorist was little more than a developing fetus and caught a nasty in utero bug.

"We made the discovery by rearranging the letters of his name," one of Langley's cryptographers commented, "it anagrams to Ah, Bad Dark Labia Bug."

Following months of digging in the IS leader's murky past the Agency released the psychological profile this morning.

It describes how, when al-Baghdadi was born, puzzled local midwives made the 'née-jerk' decision to give him a FGM - female genital mutilation - makeover to 'cut out the demon' embedded in his loins.

"Probably not much anasthetic was used," the CIA spokesperson added. President Obama has asked to be kept informed.

“Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo.”

“Disorderly Conduct” by Sidhe

A message to all of you short-sighted killers
What kind of world will you leave behind for your children
When you’ve squeezed every last drop of life from the land
With your greed and your murder you’ve wrought with your plans

Land defender Sidhe had planned to share her entire poem with the 700 conference goers, but police–already aware of the conference organizers’ insecurities and impatience–would not cede a moment to their dissenters. Sidhe was booked into the Uintah County Jail on suspicion of “disorderly conduct,”

The Holy Trinity to Go Their Separate Ways or...

"If there is a human race still here in 100 years, I think it will be thanks to music."

After existing for nearly two millennia as consubstantial roommates, the Holy Trinity--God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit--are splitting up

Theologians thought they had settled the debate of the Holy Trinity more than a millennium ago, by killing off or suppressing anyone who denied that the three who made up the Holy Trinity were both consubstantial (existing all at once in the same "place") and co-eternal, with (paradoxically) God the Father being the "begetter" of his son, Jesus. Now the issue is blowing up all over again, but this time the source of disagreement is from the Holy Threesome themselves.

The bickering, which has been seething now for the last two centuries, blew up this year when Jesus said he was tired of playing second fiddle to God the Father. Griped God the Son: "Everyone says I'm 'begotten' of God the Father! Let's face it: Without me, no one would even give God the Father a second look!

Do you hear anyone saying, 'I accept God the Father as my salvation and personal savior?' Or: 'Yahweh is the reason for the season!' Hell no! I'm the one who really runs this show." Jesus has told close friends that He wants to strike out on this own, and try to find Himself.

And the Holly Spirit is not happy with the current arraignment either. "What the hell is the 'Holy Spirit' anyway? I got to impregnate Mary, but without even pleasuring her. I got to hover above the heads of the apostles when they prayed.

Whoopee! You may as well just put me in a spray can and sell me in the cleaning solvents aisle at Kroger's. Like Jesus, I want to strike out on my own." Friends of "Ghost," as they call him, say he is in the process of getting himself an agent, to maybe see if he can host his own talk show or pick up a role on American Horror Story.

But God the Father will have none of this. In fact, He has threatened to ground Jesus if He obstinately continues to press for breaking up the Holy Trinity. And of the Holy Spirit, He threatened: "I'm God the Father. I'm omnipotent, God dammit! I can put that little incubus in a spray can, if that's what He wants. The Holy Trinity will only split up over my dead body!"

My grandfather once told me that there were two kinds of people: those who do the work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in the first group; there was much less competition.

Stupidity

This documentary about stupidity tells us the history of the word "moron", the difference between stupid, moron, smart, intelligent, genius and questions the regular practice of classifying peoples intelligence through standardized IQ tests. Of course also Mr. Bush is examined in this report. A well educated guy who, nevertheless, acts in a completely dumb way -- or at least wants us to believe so.
Albert Einstein said:
"Only two things are infinite the universe and stupidity.
and I am not sure about the former."

What do you do that others consider stupid ?
