  2. Time does not actually exist so you can’t prove it’s Monday. So watch today’s episode backwards, upside-down and sideways cause Joanne’s t-shirt is too groovy baby, as is she. Asparagus Girl.

    …and…speaking/thinking/talking of UFOs

        I don\’t see why we can\’t 1280×1024 wallpaper sized downloads. Do they think we are going to sell illegal reproductions from that?

    Cool Animated Photo Loading, please wait...

    Hey Excellent production for today’s R.B.! Nuances beclouded within nuances. Just beautiful.

    And the frosting! I love cake, but oh that frosting!

    I was rummaging through the manilla folders in my file cabinet this morning realizing that most of my datums (and my record of moves written in pencil upon 110 lb. paper stock) have been missing for nearly a year now when the bell rang, and my Wii was delivered! Unfortunately the e-bay guy didn’t mention that it had Japanese fonts activated. What are the odds of that? Does anyone know how to get it to do Portuguese, or Italian, or some other more useful language? And the damn power chord was missing, too.

    P.S.(3): By the way I love the way the image shutters slightly when the lights dim. Luvya!

    When did Texas get down to a paltry 800 square miles? From the looks of the comments, I dare say you don’t have any Texan viewers!

    Somebody should tell that poor boy in the coffin-like box that he can mess with his perception of time in many easier ways. We all: “kill time” or “make the moment last” or “loose track of time altogether” or “watch the clock.” It is only a perception in the first place.

    Playing with perceptions is relatively academic. Loosing perceptions is hard work. To the extent a perception is intrinsic to mortality, as is time, it constitutes somewhat impossible work for a mortal.

    Some have recommended drug use. I find the final revelation of drug use to be the crushing epiphany that all that “precious time” was lost to a drug problem.

    But how can time be “lost,” by equate time to memories? Memories can be lost. Or, by equating time to progress on a plan. Therein lies the key to the perception problem!

    We want to construct our lives. We get busy making plans for the future and memories of the past. The present becomes a product of the past–memory A plus memory B equals present C. The present becomes a starting point for future projects–present C plus acquisition 9 equals future X.

    But our memories are so tainted we rarely get it right when tested unless we study hard. We call it excellent if we are only 10% or so off on a test. But even if we’re that accurate on our past, which we aren’t, 90% equals a guess at who we are and a bad premise for plotting a course.

    The future rarely turns out to be what we expect. The present isn’t really a part of life if it is just about the past and the future.

    We are extrapolating a measured existence from what is actually a cycle of life. We are obsessed with building evermore complex clock and climbing as far into it as possible.

    I recommend escaping time as much as possible. Get into the “now.” Avoid the present, past and future. There is no truth and no life in those constructs.

    I recommend learning to meditate as a life long pursuit. This is it. It is all happening now.

    I am getting out of this clock for the rest of the day.

  11. This is freaky!!!!! It’s 10 pm EST. I was listening to the news on the net, some ABC radio station. The news ends and the weather man comes on…Saturday night and it’s 30 degrees, going down to 28 degrees later this Saturday night.

    My brain elongated and snapped back like the character in the Mask. I couldn’t believe what I just heard.

    One Casual Friday out of place and the entire planet is in a time warp.
