Through early morning fog I see
visions of the things to be
the pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see...
that suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it anyway
The losing card I'll someday lay
so this is all I have to say.
suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
The sword of time will pierce our skins
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works its way on in
The pain grows stronger...watch it grin.
suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
A brave man once requested me
to answer questions that are key
is it to be or not to be
and I replied 'oh why ask me?'
suicide is painless
it brings on many changes
and I can take or leave it if I please.
...and you can do the same thing if you please......

Dog food for thought

It's dog eat dog out there, and you are what you eat! Is fame worth it, or is is in fact a formula for misery and dispare - it shouldn't happen to a dog.

ridiculously honest enough to hope to be honestly ridiculous

Would it be ridiculously honest of me to admit that I can be ridiculously honest? One day I hope to be honestly ridiculous.

Foretelling the future ain't much of a talent



AS a matter of fact the trick seems to be overlooking the obvious until a bad idea seems like a good one!

One must know when to stop.
Knowing when to stop averts trouble.
~Tao Te Ching Verse 32

The strongest walls are in the mind

The sky may be the limit but space is the place!

Be the change - by doing nothing

Documentary film maker Michael Moore has cashed in on teen shootings, and auto manufacturing. He had a slip up when he took on health care. You don't mess with the health care establishment, as Pres. Obama is now learning. Well Michael now feels that the time is right to cash in on the failure of capitalism. Now that's the spirit! An opportunist can make money out of anything!




insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results

"We have to get involved politically" - that only works in the movies, and even there not since the days of Jimmy Stewart. There is one sure way to change the world, though I have to warn you it's very counter intuitive. The world would change radically if no one got out of bed to go to work next Monday. Mahatma Gandhi called it passive resistance - as opposed to the more popular form of radical activism. It did drive the Brits out of India (though they're still in Northern Ireland and can't get out for trying)!

On a personal level passive resistance can work wonders. If you decide to stay in bed Monday, without even bothering to call in sick - just let nature take her course - you'll discover something. you'll discover that the world didn't come to an end because you didn't go to the office! Nature abhors a vacuum and you'll be surprised how everything just sort of fills in.

So if you really want to take Michael Moore seriously, instead of getting worked up and bothered enough to do something that will probably just make the situation much worse, like get involved politically, just take the day off. If you get involved politically you'll just empower a different bunch of rogues. History has taught us that one group of rogues is a bad as the next. However if you leave things alone, the situation may resolve it's self. "The sum total of evil in the world is reduced when good men learn to sit quietly in their rooms doing nothing" as Blaise Pascal said, or in the words of Bernard from Yes Minister "A hot potato becomes a cold potato if you leave it alone".

PS Doing nothing is the basic principal behind the labor strike. Workers decide not to punch in as a form of protest. For 100 years it was the only effective strategy labor had. Don't knock nothing cause it's very powerful! "I do it" = "idiot".

Life is cheat

A brave man once requested me
to answer questions that are key
is it to be or not to be
and I replied 'oh why ask me?'



The only way to win is cheat
And lay it down before I'm beat
and to another give my seat
for that's the only painless feat.
