Must. Resist. Urge. To. Explain.

Please do. It will make it easier for me to circumvent it, for achieving the ultimate goal.

This should be in confessions but I'm hiding it here:

I will be in London for three days in November; I plan to re-enact the year 1666.








Don't tell Chez.

Google 'Zeno's Paradox.'

Life is better as part mystery; part quality drunkenness.

I'm urging Plaaynde on in his quest for the Holy Grail. It's the least a Master should do.

Will you use your paradox for holding me back, Zeno?


The real paradox is I really can go into quality now, instead of quantity. That's because I've almost lost interest in drinking. Being sober is much more fun. So 50 or 30 ml miniatures can be tested by the hundreds, one per for example every two days or somethin'. Ordered my first dozen today.

You could be the next Lord Haw Haw, Zeno.

What else you doing? Busy schedule, or got time for a pint with SMPers in one of our quaint London pubs?

Congrats to your exactly 5,000 posts, charlie!

I'm preparing my 10,000 posts speak already, even if there is 200+ to go...

Thanks.

Making those 200 posts take as much time as possible will make the anticipation that much sweeter IMO.

I'll send a PM to you and Chez with days and details. I'm finalizing my weapons cache and smuggling operations but that should not interfere with meeting up at some point. I will be with my friend Stuart while in London. He may be busy some days hanging out with wankers and other soiled business characters he knows. He may not want an uncouth American Redneck along on his delicate business dealings. We'll see.


If nothing else, we should all get together and have a rousing toast to Thomas Jefferson.

Cool. Whatever.

By the way, I'm super depressing to be around.

I'm not. I've always got the world by the tail.

Love this song; especially the chorus

Somebody said they saw me,
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud,
killing the blues.

A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices. - William James*


*He was guilty of this himself, as we all are from time to time.

Yes, but he was doing it with an excellent beard.

Really don't understand this. Resembling a butt plug? What are people up to?

From the link:

Called “Tree”, the piece by US artist Paul McCarthy was erected in Paris’s upmarket Place Vendôme on Thursday as part of the FIAC international art festival which begins next week.

The inflatable artwork is intended to represent a Christmas tree, according to McCarthy, but has caused outrage among some due to its resemblance to an anal plug sex toy, prompting calls for city authorities to remove it.

Feeling has been so strong that McCarthy, 69, has said he was slapped three times in the face by a passer-by as the artwork was unveiled.

I'm disappointed that I will not be see this and also that I can't claim responsibility for the vandalism. France sounds like a fun place. I land there on Wednesday.

People are up to their usual silliness. You think that is going to stop anytime soon?

They will have time to re-inflate it then. Have a nice trip!

This act of vandalism is itself a piece of performance art, of course.

I need someone really good at math to help me answer a few simple problems and make equations I can use in a spreadsheet. I am willing to pay you. If you are interested please PM me.

No. SMP policy is no monetary rewards for any work etc. No underhanded PM's etc. Please read the SMP rules before posting; available from the sticky thread in the Banner. There is a Math homework thread in SMP were you can take your questions for help. This is done free as a service by the fantastic, smart, altruistic, and truly fabulous posters from this forum.

Thank You.

I'm losing faith in everything. Maybe it's a phase. What comes next?

Heavy drinking. Takes the mind away. For example, this afternoon I was thinking to myself, "We pour the milk onto the cereal, and then eat it all with a spoon? How odd."

Believing in god (emphasis on lower case g).
