Hookers or Cake

Where the self-obsessed get serious about silly
I'm too wacky to be hip.

    • ------------------------------------- How this blog got its name

      ------------------------------------ There was a large painting of Evel Knievel shaking hands with Richard Nixon. It hung in the Mayors office. Late one evening after everyone went home. I took it down to the lab. I zoomed in on Evel’s left eye a 100x and enhanced it. It was an address. I went to the address. It was a modest, 1970’s style, split level ranch home in the suburbs.

      ----------------------------------- Inside I found a dead parrot lying on a waterbed. I revived the parrot with some saltines and adrenaline. We became good friends. The parrots name was Randy. One night a few years later while Randy and me played Gin Rummy, he sang me a song about a fire. The title of this blog was never mentioned but I sensed it, and Randy confirmed it by giving me ‘THE LOOK’.

            and the lawyers wrote their magical poetry
            translating the law whichever way the money fell
            the scientist wrote their manifestos to god
            they told him/her to fuck off
            “We don’t need you, when we can create our own diet soda,” they said.
            “And we don’t need your Deus ex machina,
            (I don’t even know what Deus ex machina means!)
            but whatever it is, we don’t need it
            and we sure as hell don’t understand it
            and you can shove it
            put it in all the bright pretty things & moments
            and sell it down at the outlet mall.

            but somewhere there was a pure man
            an innocent… he believed in Jesus with the heart of a child
            something about love
            through all this pain and madness

            and in his wallet he kept a picture of Jesus
            it was old and crumbling
            Jesus was holding his chest open
            exposing his beating heart

            his beating heart
            which the world tore apart
            like rabid dogs

            maybe old Christ was showing us something
            a little bit deeper about the truth of reality

            and just as God was twittering about some new internet porn that is also a tasty, healthy snack, I awoke from the dream. I spent the next several weeks in a deep meditative state trying to recall the magical 140 character message. This was important, not only would it make me rich but it would also satisfy my every desire. Like if the body of Christ tasted like Doritos’s or chocolate but then also satisfied the deep longing to merge joyously into a blissful unity and wholeness.  Like diet soda that actually tasted delicious but then also had a great set of tits.NOM NOM NOM indeed.I chuckle as I write this, remembering that the first last supper (aka communion) was all about eating magical mushrooms. Some folks argue that all religions come from mushroom eating. Whatever the case I think we can all agree that good drugs sure have influenced music and the snack industry in some wonderful ways and plays of being.

            In editing my book of short stories I’ve decided to come out with a family edition in which each story will end thusly. …then all the kittens repented, became born again thru our Lord Jesus Christ and lived happily ever after. They never used illicit drugs, fornicated, gambled, blasphemed, or practiced evil cat magic again. The End

            The wonderful thing about having a guru is that you are no longer burdened by endless nagging questions and choices. You give all things to the guru. You are free. So if something arises in samsara you just IM your guru. Me: Jill wants to go to a movie =S G: What movie? =) Me: The Hurt Locker G: SUcKS! =[ Me: Really? It won the academy award?=0 G: Sucks!>=[ Me: K =) G: if your main character has to give a speech at the end of the film, explaining who he the main character is… your film sucks. x( Me: oh snap =) G: that and last scene is a metal video w/slo-mo action =/ Me: wow =D G: told ya - it sucks! ;)
