    I'm a disciple of science
    I know the universe is in compliance with natural laws,
    but many place reliance on the pseudo-science
    of quacks and morons and fools,
    because their education's deficient
    --MC Hawking

    "Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear -- kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervor -- with the cry of grave national emergency... Always there has been some terrible evil to gobble us up if we did not blindly rally behind it by furnishing the exorbitant sums demanded. Yet, in retrospect, these disasters seem never to have happened, seem never to have been quite real."

    -General Douglas MacArthur, 1957, in A Soldier Speaks: Public Papers and Speeches of General of the Army Douglas MacArthur (1965)

    Japan scientists make paper planes for space
    Is there anything the Japanese won't make out of paper?

    Hope you are all having a good day.

    Dear Santa...

    Dear Santa,

    This year I've been busy!

    In April I helped [info]cainmark hide a body (-173 points). In May I gave [info]auroradancing a wet willie, then I took it back (-5 points). Last month I invaded Iraq, broke it, and couldn't glue it back together before Mom got home (-1012 points). Last Sunday I gave [info]rowanheart a Dutch Oven (-10 points). Last Wednesday I put gum in [info]stiney1's hair (-12 points).

    Overall, I've been naughty (-1212 points). For Christmas I deserve a moldy sandwich!

    Sincerely,
    bokonondeemax

    Write your letter to Santa! Enter your LJ username:

    Have you ever had someone ask "What do you really want?" and you couldn't come up with an answer?

    I haven't had an answer for years now. I think my subconscious has decided that if you can't always get what you want, then quit trying and subsist on what you need.

    dumb things
    I think the election process in the USA would benefit if, whenever we hear someone condemning someone else for failing to condemn something, we would throw tomatoes at the condemner. This would make political debates much more fun, especially if we expanded it to people who condemn someone else for condemning yet a third person. :splat:

    I suppose it's pretty obvious from my choice of username that Kurt Vonnegut Jr. had an effect on my life. I have been using this net alias for many years in one form or another; i chose it when i needed a username on local modem BBSs, because i had happened to read "Cat's Cradle" recently. I felt that Bokonon was something of a sanctified figure in a strange, sideways-approach manner. This was before i discovered Discordianism and found out that others agreed. It seemed appropriate to select, as an alias on a virtual communications network, the name of a fictional character dedicated to spreading happiness through lies.

    I remember seeing the movie "Slaughterhouse-Five" when i was quite young. The idea of becoming "unstuck in time" stayed with me and featured in some of my writing attempts. When i discovered that the movie was based on a book, i searched out the book and found one of my favorite authors.

    While studying engineering in college, i read "Player Piano." It should be required reading for engineering students. Yow.

    Bye, Kilgore. So it goes. Take a flying fuck at the MOOOOOON!!

    (talking about when he tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope) Oh, she says well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope. I meet a lot of people. And, see some great looking babes. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And, and ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is, is we're here on Earth to fart around. And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And, what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And, we're not supposed to dance at all anymore.
    --Kurt Vonnegut, Jr, interview on Public Broadcasting Service (2005)

    It's nice having a little time off and being able to get back in touch with people i haven't seen in a while. I have been spending way too much time worrying about all the crap that isn't getting done, and not enough time enjoying what is actually getting done.

    Also, it's nice having someone around who will bring you a muffaletta sandwich when you are hungry :)

    Don't forget to bust out a big O for peace today:
    http://globalorgasm.org/

    WHO? All Men and Women, you and everyone you know.

    WHERE? Everywhere in the world, but especially in countries with weapons of mass destruction.

    WHEN? Winter Solstice Day - Friday, December 22nd, at the time of your choosing, in the place of your choosing and with as much privacy as you choose.

    WHY? To effect positive change in the energy field of the Earth through input of the largest possible surge of human energy a Synchronized Global Orgasm. There are two more US fleets heading for the Persian Gulf with anti-submarine equipment that can only be for use against Iran, so the time to change Earth’s energy is NOW!

    ok, i am back.

    i cancelled my account here and said i would only un-cancel it if one person on my friends list got in touch within the 30 days and asked why it was cancelled. one person did. so there we are. call it drama if you like.

    i have been feeling very isolated lately. i think most of the people who thought i was amusing have grown out of it - and i am still the same.

    for what it's worth: i miss you. and i am still interested in what you are doing. but i don't feel welcome anymore.
