And here I thought I was being clever & geeky with my response.

You did call me a nihilist techno-geek didn't you?
The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

You aren't? My mistake. And Gandalf from New Mexico. I did think of you when making my scurrilous list but I couldn't think of any way to lampoon you. So I guess that was a shrewd observation on your part to be glad to be left off of the list.

Thats because I'm a conundrum wrapped in an enigma, stuffed in a wet sock with a piece of bacon and an open can of smoked oysters, tucked under the front seat of a Prius left parked in the sun too long.

OK, well there you go, you've done it for me. btw, I hope the boy scout imperator understands that this is all in the spirit of fun.

mmm. . . bacon. Sure beats liver cancer tumors in hollandaise sauce. And Gandalf, I think I know why you thought of parasitic worms just before the sun explodes. Did you ever read H. G. Well's book The Time Machine? Otherwise you are madder than madpaddy. And that's pretty mad. parasitic worms? You're trying to make my list, aren't you?

Well they are "deeply moving" aren't they? I have read "The Time Machine" but it has been a long time. If theres a connection it was subconscious...

Heres the way I see it, if anyone has seen the movie "jackass" - The scene with all the idiots riding the giant shopping cart? The cart is PO.com...

Ok, I haven't been back long but here are some quick summaries of folks I have taken note of as of late and what my impression is:

Roccman - You need the anger management dude. Good luck with it. :)

PMS - Talk about an enigma...

Ludi - The ultimate anti-negative feel gooder.

Jack - 'Did I mention I have guns...'

MonteQuest - Smart and no bullshit. None. Ever.

Pops - Someone I wish lived next door so I could bother him all the time to teach me more stuff.

OilIsMastery - Disinformation incarnate.

Heineken - I have a picture on my desk by Caspar David Friedrich.

Wanderer above a sea of fog, 1818

I don't know why I have this impression, but 'tragic perseverance' just comes to mind. I guess I relate.

That's all I've got for now.

Does anyone know what happened to Gideon?

He either left in a huff or got banned, I think.

I'm honored... because I made someone laugh.

Oh and MQ is about as fun and flexible as a puritan funeral service.

Aaron, I think he meant "nihilist geek" in a good way.... 8)

Of course I did. I love Aaron in a wholesome way. btw, I remember when Monte tried his hand at humor. Oh, that was bad. And then he bumped it to a resounding thud. Monte is grim but very informative. I don't love him in a wholesome way, but I respect him. Boy scout Imperators should not ever attempt to crack jokes. Leave that to the silly rabbits.

Hello PMS! The whole notion that I have to be an automaton and a slave to the machine is vile and repressive. Fuck spelling. this fucking earth is being burned to a cinder and mass raped. Orangutangs are wandering around like destitutes dying en mas. its horrifying and tragic. Humans are going to get theirs. Who fucking thinks that actions do not have consequences. Or that we will not pay for these sins we reap? Fucking permaculture going to make our wrongs right? please.. Humans are going to burn to a cinder. all of them. Not just turd worlders. The next two generations are going to be the logs on the bon fire. The stench will be overbearing. I laugh at those that think humans will come out of this without payback.
