Reflections on Eastern Thought
Years living in, and studying Japan at the grad level taught me a lot about life - and death. The experience brought me closer to gleaning some insight into universal truths about human nature, the constitution of the universe and the nature of the energy that flows within, from and into other living things, and ultimately, into death and back again. Being exposed to Buddha's teachings and realizing through Chan (Zen) that we all exist in a ceaseless empty circle of being, superficially coloured by both delight and torment, changed my life and the way I look at those I share this journey with.
That's how now, after all this time, I have come to realize one pure truth:
You have to like stupid people. If you don't, there really are not many people left to like on the face of this globe.
So this weekend, I'm suggesting you go out there and have dinner with, rollerblade with, talk about American Idol with, or just plain sport fuck a stupid person. It's only right.
Have a great day, you big stupid bunch of sexified stupid-heads.

Leather-"It's not like they're going to be lonely." LOL!!!
BTW- I didn't say dumb chicks give me an innie. I said very large chicks do. And I should clarify- that was not meant to be a swipe at big women. Everyone has their own tastes...
For the record: I, for one, have never barred a dumb chick entrance to my boudoir; or the can at Burger King for that matter.
I'm just happy that you both have such high standards. It gives us all something to aspire to.
Pam- you are the unattainable though. Plebes like us are forced to wallow in the muck of the bargain basement of humanity, while some lucky man, somewhere on this continent has the privilege of wandering in your garden of delights for the rest of his auspicious life.
Sigh.
Stupidity whether natural or induced is necessary for survival once one has seen the Cosmic Joke and understood the absurdity of one's life.
Ha ha! Cosmic Joke indeed. I prefer escapism via illicit drugs. The great equalizer.
"Garden of delights" K-Man? I love chicks who don't shave down there. It's so 70's.
Hey hey hey! I resent that, leather..there is no grass in the garden. The garden is very well maintained.
Pam- I bet :)
That's why I love Zen gardens- no grass!!! Just ultra-smooth, fragrant, slightly pinkish...lotus blooms.
Mmmmmmmmm. I'm getting hotter than Georgia asphalt over here.
Leather- and by the way- we are so missing each other on that cosmic sex wave these days. What's happened to us sweetie?
It's not you. It's me.
Actually, business has sucked this summer. It usually does, but I lost a couple of bids and got stiffed by a client so I'm into the credit a little deeper than my comfort zone. This is not for the faint of heart.
(Doesn't stop me from having a state of the art drum kit though. When the going gets tough, the tough go shopping...)
Wow, sounds like you guys are having some relationship issues. I'd always thought you were such a cute couple.
relationship issues? who isn't? ever?
Cheer up Leather... you know the only answer is to go to work. Everything gets better when you go to work.
Especially when you remember what K-Dough just pointed out.
You forgot to expand on it KD.
There really isn't very many stupid people in this world. Just people who can't, or won't, make decisions.
There is no such thing as multiple choice, just black and white, yes or no, etc...
Amazing how many people choose to ignore that simple fact.
Smart people are merely people who make choices, hard or easy.
There is no right or wrong, only good decisions, and decisions that make for more decisions.
Least ways thats what the old mexican dude at the top of the really short mountain told me... for a beer.
... alright, and 10 bucks.
the only thing you need to know about Japan is that they have eminently drinkable beer in vending machines. And hot young things who like to wear their school uniforms
my greater philosophcal point in this post- which may have been obscured by my never failing crude explanation - is that we are all stupid.
Some of us understand that, and that what sets us apart from those living mythically...
