    Errr...

    I meant the stove....

    It happened last night. I'd had a bit too much wine and I went downstairs to get an onion sandwich. As I was cutting the onion I could smell gas and thought there was a leak. It got me thinking that that could be a very all-encompassing trippy metaphor for something, but I can't remember what, now....

    Anyway, back to work for me....I'm reading all about parchment. Riveting stuff. Er, not.

    it'd be wonderful to make sense from the nonsense altered minds create

    i've discovered the meaning of life
    high on a whippit
    and lost it
    poof
    just like that


    but i know i know in there somewhere
    and that's half the battle
    they say :)
    It's all yellow.

    Do you ever wake up from a dream knowing the secret of the universe, and have it all dissipate when you try to log in your mind the thoughts you've just had? If only we could maintain those rare moments of satchitananda.

    all i ever remember from those brief dances with understanding is that there is god in everything. in everything and inbetween everything. and that it's ALL okay.

    i fear we humans deny our connected state far more than we should...

    the meaning of the universe never came to me in a dream... only weird and fear-bound things come where there is no real mutiny...

    the meaning???





    bang big and expand



    :D

    I awake to the whisper soft secret of the universe in its genuine simplicity, holding its truth and beauty in my heart, understanding my mind and thoughts are the elemental part of its composition. And I am happy.
    '..... Ah! A perfect illustration of the poststructuralist paradox. Does the signifier "Merlot" correspond with the 'truth' of the bottle I polished off last night, or do we hold in our thoughts a different "signified" of bottle-of-Merlot-ness? Perhaps we're dreaming of the same bottle!" -FinsburyParkCarrots

    and if she's bringin butter, I'll bring the jam. the honey too sticky, the potato, the yam, carrots is apparently here, and would you believe that's grammatically correct? man, if she's bringin butter, jam, quite erect.

    dear holy mutha and hollowed be thy tart.

    I was talking grammar last night with someone on the All Encompassing Trip thread. They wouldn't have it that
    a trousers
    a scissors
    a shambles
    a bollocks
    were grammatically correct......

    sigh

    some people

    see, I have always been of the opinion that the American dialect is just that: a dialect... it is a bastardization of the modern English language OR, to put it in a different twist, it IS the modern English language. LOL

    but of course a scissors is grammatically correct. A shambles? MY ROOM IS A SHAMBLES. Seriously. LOL nice.

    and MOTH is pretty darn good but Strangest Tribe is better.

    I was pleased to see that a few people remained in the theater to hear the newest from our now Indie faves Pearl Jam.

    Largest Indie band, most successful Indie band ever. :D now THAT's irony.

    Because of you I am more happy than I could know.
