the b and the d

How are you enjoying the flight?

I find it to be alternately sublimely terrifying and emotionally disturbing but mainly boring and depressing.

How are you enjoying the pornography?

Ultimately, while very susceptible to feeling both aroused and repulsed by what it suggests, I find it to be very boring and depressing.

How did you find the company of any number of average American citizens? (in the airport, on the flight, at the conference, on the streets under the gorgeous California sun, overheard outside in the motel court while you lay wiped out from work and jetlag watchin the free HBO and hoping like hell you weren't really getting sick because it was going to be a long and brutal flight back the next day, a Saturday, the worst day for business travel because of all the very public amateurish pin-assery in play at the nation's airports? I'm not a wholly seasoned traveler, but for better or worse over the past year I've become much less rank. However, even when I was arank amateur, I tried to hold down the dumb shit. Tried not act like a total freakin dope. Tried to be cool. People gotta try to be cool, is the thing. More people gotta. Oh whatever)

60-40 ratio: idiotic, boring depressing - basically OK

How have you found your own behavior to be in any number situations and conversations?

Same ratio.

Qualify the many varietals of fools in early 21st Century American culture.

Harmless fools, vile fools, self-aggrandizing fools, blithering fools, old fools, fat fools, young fools, drunk fools, unwitting fools, unwilling fools, shit-eating fools, desperate fools, satiated fools, craven fools, plodding fools, temporary fools, complacent fools, strident fools, spectacular fools. Folly is a cornucopia of the human situation. My ally it is, and a powerful ally is it. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Folly around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.
