Photoshop is so fun. Wish I had thought of this one. I should add that I saw this one a week or two ago in a different setting. I think orsm.net is taking someone else’s credit. Seems the picture wasn’t as dark either and that you could actually see the woman in the paper in the paper in the paper…
Typeless
I want to write
But today I’m not quite right
So I’ll remain quiet
And ramble only in my brain

Student: I need a miracle.
Master: You need residual, non-labor revenue.
Do as I say, not as I do…
My mantra around the house: “Don’t put it down; put it away.”
Then I look at my desk.
I once read it takes 30,000 repetitions to make something a habit. I have a long way to go.

Student: I can’t win
Master: Just play the game.

- Don’t believe everything you read on the Internet
- Do read the label on the box which in bold letters read “DO NOT USE TO REMOVE SQUIRRELS, BATS OR BIRDS.”
- Moth balls do get rid of squirrels in the attic (temporarily) while poisoning the humans and giving them cancer.
On a side note, I’m having awfully good memories of visiting Great-grandmother’s house.
Update: About 5 hours later the house doesn’t stink any longer.

Student: Lost
Master: Oh yeah!
Now this is a car commercial!
Watch this video for the Volkswagon Polo titled “German engineering vs Arab engineering.” Warning! Work safe but potentially offensive to people that have lost their minds in political correctness. To these folks, I ask that you lighten up. We don’t make our world a better place by ignoring reality, or re-writing history to be less offensive. We certainly don’t make a blind man see by calling him “visually impaired.” Frankly I find political correctness patronizing and that’s offensive.
Some followup:
A commercial accidently released on the Internet depicts a Miiddle Eastern suicide bomber blowing himself up in a VW Polo automobile. The advertisement – with a tagline of “Polo. Small but tough.” – was meant to show the sturdiness of the car, since it contained the explosion. The spot was produced by the British group “Lee and Dan” who claim Volkswagen did not request the ad.
January 20, 2005 — Volkswagen is planning to take legal action against the masterminds behind a hoax VW commercial depicting a suicide bomber.

Student: Why did they burn our temple?
Master: To help us better appreciate it.
Sweetness
Tonight is so beautiful
The fog is thick
And the air absolutely still
Only a car or two can be heard
in the distance
No planes fly tonight
Few lights pollute the darkness
The crickets are silent
The possum and raccoon have stayed home
A hoot owl speaks twice then says no more
My puppy sits faithfully with me
She too is still like the air
The air is crisp like a walk-in freezer
at the grocery
But not cold
I could sleep on this log tonight
There is magic in the air
Blessed be
I have found calm and peace
After having a child yell at me
For three hours
