Things that don't go together, Ch. 10

Iphones and clothes.

First, a bit of history to bring us to the current date:

Chapter 1:  The beginning

The serpent tempts Eve in the Garden of Eden to eat the Apple.  She does.   As does Adam.  They realize that they are naked.  Then they cover themselves with clothes to paradoxically later undress to have sex.  See, clothes are what feathers are to a peacock.  Just a way to get noticed to attract a mate.  Now I'm sure there is much more to wearing clothes than that, but lets just oversimplify for now because that is what I do:-).

Chapter 2:   The middle

Lots of clothes and lots of sex.  Except during various times in history when there was a lot of religion.

Chapter 3:  The present day

Now instead of literally eating an Apple, Adam and Eve buy a Apple Iphones.  They don't actually have to take a byte out of the iphone to gain knowledge because Karl Marx was right.   Consumerism is the medium of consumption.  Facebook is the opiate of the masses.  Or something like that.

But now simply wearing clothes to attract a mate isn't so simple a concept.  You have to wear meta- clothes.  Virtual clothes.  Iclothes or whatever.   For the clothes must not only make your body interesting, but your entire online facebook twitter blogging persona (EOFTBP).  Sometimes that is not an easy concept.  Its not only what you wear, but where you have been, who you are with, and what clever quotes you can spin.  Without an EOFTB, you are just nayked, without the raygun:-)

(but it still might not hurt to buy a new car)

Silster Wilster Ch. 8

Sayings, jokes and silligisms.

1.  The suspect (from Pao)

So I got called to the police station this morning and had to stand in line with all these other people.   Then one by one these witnesses come up with the cops and are pointing at me and saying "that's him, I'm sure about it, he's the great guy."

2.  I listen to the wind (from Norb's)

We all move our jaws to create sounds.
The sounds aren't that important just as long as they are supportive and do no harm.

3.   The classic (from Notre Dame)

If you think your something, better let it go
Lest you mind remind you that its just not so
Let the strong grow weak
and the smart grow dim
here comes the cycle
all over again

4.  The island (from Kroeter, R.I.P.)

One day I'll find an island
a peace a time of grace
a chance and opportunity
one girl will change this place

5.  More from the island

Hey lets get the uge really drunk
Then see how many Naugles he can eat.

6.  Lord of the Flies

Lock you door, lock your door
the ris is coming!

7.  Scenes from the Graduate

Blueberry, bran, boysenberry
Muffin!
Elaine!

8. What am I going to doo with you?

9.   Happy is the man who can laugh at his own jokes
and few are his friends!
