You look like you are about to part the red sea .

You have inspired to me to make a Faberge pin ball machine ! The balls are actually ornamental Faberge eggs , they get fired around a decadent western city made of gold , silver and platinum . A good hit causes the buildings to collapse, burst in to flames or both .... depending on the 'point value ' . Either that or its Lois' dressing table , with his Faberge bottles of night foundation cremes, man perfume , beard conditioners ....

Okay , I have told this before but the above sparked my memory ; In a Lebanese restaurant , out with some nurses from work ( and those nights would often get pretty wild ! ) . About 6 of us at a table, drinking, eating , mucking up . Waiter is flirting with the girls , and tries to score points with them by making a joke at my expense , I shrugged , but as he walked off I pegged him in the back of the head with an olive . He turned looking angry but we all acted innocent without giving away how did it . he goes out to the kitchen and comes back with a doz eggs in carton, holding one up to throw it . We bunched together and ducked down behind some held up menus . he didnt fire but then came up to the table , deciding one of the women had done it and said ; " Woman ! Dance for me ! " (as some music was playing ) . She goes 'Okay ' , jumps up on the table , kicks things out the way and starts doing a sexy dance . Waiter ; " Okay okay, thats enough , get down now . " Then, I had rolled a has joint , and I held it up ' Can we smoke this in here ? " " Dont be stupid ! Everyone will smell it ! Not in my restaurant . What are you smoking ? " " Hash ." " Hashish ! ? Show it to me ! " So I did and he " Rubbish ! " and throws it into a far corner . HEY ! Thats my hash ! Waiter ; " I will show you REAL hash ." he came back and showed me a ' lump from paradise ' , ' Oooooo can we smoke that ?" "I told you NO ! What, you stupid ?" - this guy was very entertaining he goes out and comes back wheeling this antique looking coffee service tray cart thing , all brass , even its little spoked wheels , it had a little charcoal fire going , a roasting pan , a grinder , coffee pot, some small cups . he starts roasting the beans in the pan , then throws in some cardamon seeds and then the hash ! Smashes them up a little with a wooden pestle then puts it through the grinder and into the pot and pours me a shot ...... ...... A while back I was looking into intelligence / awareness increasing drugs - yes, they are out there , but most have nasty side effects so I started looking for natural ones . I found there is only really one ( 'proved' by science ) - coffee .

Did the screen crack ?

? Well, of course , you will only have 5 seconds to catch it , before deletion .

I was gonna say this before .... why does everyone look different than I imagined ? Then again I do have an unusual imagination ..... I imagine Liminal Luke as a tall thin guy (like a meerkat ) and Apech as an actual cat , Silent Thunder as someone from ZZ Top .... ( a bit like Chris McCausland ( blind ) described what he thought David Mitchell sounded like ( from 'Would I Lie to You ' ) ; 'I imagine you as a Toby Jug of a duck . )

How can you quote a post that was already deleted ? It would look like ;

Damn ! I just missed the pre edit quote

Monday - vodka Tuesday - rum ......

^ There might even be a mouse in there .

Yeah but ...... he is a cat . ... and you want him to be 'not curious' .

Nowadays , so many of my female friends are angry about feminists . In various ways . Mhe .... The pendulum was pretty far to the right before , if its gonna swing back, its going to go far left ... then a bit less to the right on the back swing .... hoping for eventual stability .

I dont think its odd . You can say whatever you like because we dont know who you are . Put your picture up and when you walk down the street people be snickering behind your back: " There goes that liminal_luke guy .... did you know he spends all his money buying his cat wine ? " " No, But I heard he keeps a preserved marmoset penis in a jar of pickles!" ( Well, you know how gossip 'evolves' )

Pssst ! You spilled some vegemite on your top .

I think it was the way the scientific revolution became embedded in the west . Again ; its an essential understanding needed to be able to comprehend 'what happened to' the western mind / zeitgeist .

and one from you :

Sure . There is heaps of them on youtube from all over Oz .

East west schism in the microcosm : I live in the west .... behind the ' Bamboo Curtain ' ( thank God ! ) . I seem to be the last commune-ist left . Most of the easterners on the other side of my 'bamboo barrier' are fascist capitalist land grabbing , nuclear family, ego based non- communalists right . We all used to be communists . Just this morning I get a call from one of their leaders ( who are now, of course , in conflict with each other ... even though they are within a nuclear family group ) asking me (once more ) to return and help them moderate the mess they got into . My answer ? I have done that several times over the last 30 years YOU guys created the problems you now live in and do not like . I warned you , several times . Now it is a different time . Time to live in the repercussions of your arrogant and irresponsible past decisions and actions . otherwise called ' Stewing in your own shit ' ...... toodle - loo !

You can have 'fun' with it One day I decided NOT to decide anything (else ) and be led by 'outside' or 'other' forces . What an interesting day that was ! In retrospect, it might have been the day that I was most clear and following my ' own will'. There where a few nodes of difficulty where " I " tried to rebel or subvert the process . results included ; fun , a rescue of a really messed up person , getting a new friend , gaining a great gardener house sitter for a while , 2 people I knew that where rather hopeless and 'insignificant ' emerging and shining , a marriage ..... Today I am in 'full control ' probably sit around and not do much , cut some grass and go to a bull shit meeting later . Accomplishments ? ...... lived another day .

Hey ! This supposed to be the cool picture thread .

Wait ! Isnt there a song about that .... let's see " if I where a carpenter and you where not my baby would I accept you anyway or would that be a maybe ? " http://www.amiright.com/misheard/song/ifiwereacarpenter.shtml

The New Testament According to Joseph . . . Christ ? * Ooooo ! I wanna read that ! * I am assuming that's where Jesus Christ got the name from ? .
