DON'T TOUCH THAT DIAL!......OR....THAT BUTTON! UNTIL "YOUR ESSENCE" IS DRAINED FROM YOUR PODLING BRAIN......
I'm the best you can get, have you guessed me, yet? I'm the slime oozin' out from your TV set [Verse 3] You will obey me while I lead you And eat the garbage that I feed you Until the day that we don't need you Don't go for help, no one will heed you Your mind is totally controlled It has been stuffed into my mold And you will do as you are told Until the rights to you are sold [Interlude] That's right, folks Don't touch that dial (FRANK ZAPPA )
ON THE GALVESTON BEACH IN 1960.......my friends, Marcia and Julie, must, by law, cover their breasts, while I....and Fred...may, freely, show other beachcombers our lovely titties.....
Why are female breasts ...that, potentially, serve to produce milk for their babies.... lascivious and pruriently disallowed, while men may sport their nipples for all to see? I just watched " The Rise and Fall of An Empire ", yesterday...noting that Cato, the younger, always exhibited his breasts...never wearing an inner tunic.....
HOW VALUABLE ARE OUR LIVES?
I remember watching Groucho Marx's TV Series, "YOU BET YOUR LIFE" ......and wondered 'why is it called this ?'. I hear people, hyperbolically, exclaiming, "This is to die/KILL for!", "I'm/She's/He's dying to go/hear/see/do"....something or another....; "I'm dying to go!"; "That jacket's to die for!"......Likewise, it is common to hear "I'd kill for a ticket to that concert!"; "That hat is a killer !"; 'a game's killer blow '...... What's our colloquial language expressing about dying and killing?
'CONDITIONAL SURRENDERING OF HOPEFUL OPTIMISM TO DEPRESSIVE DESPAIR, SIGNIFIED BY AMBER-COLORED PLASTIC VIALS WITH CONVENIENT POP-TOPS FOR QUICK ACCESS TO TEMPORIZING SOLUTIONS'
The latest DSM-5 has now classified even the most insignificant glitches in our happiness fantasies as "conditions" that require drugs to suppress our awareness of depression and anxiety.....a boon to drug companies, for certain. Ironically, although we are constantly being marketed drugs to 'make us happier', the more anxious and depressed we become.........Leonard Bernstein, some decades ago, created a symphonic work, The Age Of Anxiety, to codify this 'condition''.....Recently, I anxiously attented a performance of the Bernstein masterwork; after which, I noticed several ASO attentees, lined up, popping pills AND HANDING WELL-BEHAVED CHILDREN BAGS OF SKITTLES AND TIC TACS...... PRE-DRUG-ADDICTION TRAINING CANDIES, as they awaited their vehicles....
THE EXCITATION EFFECT......Right-Brain Dominant Cerebral response to 'Trance-sendental' Music....
whereas.....watching television sit-coms, Fox News and crime-dramas......inhibits creative processes and produces lower measures of microstructural organization and myelination of brain white matter tracts that support language, emergent literacy skills, creativity and corresponding cognitive abilities, in general.......Regarding our Brains.....it's 'use it..or lose it'.......
INFINITE PERSPECTIVES WITH INDEFINITE INTERPRETATIONS (sometimes the synaptical seas get rough....even on the calm block at the end of comprehensibility)
three states of brain matter, with ageing and inactivity.......healthy (center); deteriorating (left); senile (right).....as i note the death of Ted Turner.....victim of Lewy Body Dementia, as were Norman Rockwell, Maurice Ravel and Robin Williams... earlier. FOR OVER 20 YEARS, I'VE 'WORKED ON' THE ' INFINITE PERSPECTIVE ' PICTURES.....DONE ON SANDWICHED GLASS PANELS, PHOTOGRAPHED WITH VARIATIONS OF 'TYPES OF LIGHTING'....USUALLY, NATURAL SUNLIGHT OR MOONLIGHT.....THEN MANIPULATED, VIA PHOTOSHOPPING PROGRAMS........THE 'PROJECT' BEGAN AS AN ATTEMPT TO PRODUCE THE MAJOR ARCANA CARDS FOR MY PROSPECTIVE ' TAROT CARD DECK '.....THEN BECAME PART OF MY Experimental PSYCHOLOGY PROJECT, " RORCHACHT CARDS " .....SINCE, USUALLY, I WORKED ONLY WITH MY PHONE'S CAMERA...THE IMAGES WERE NOT DETAILED ENOUGH FOR THE "INFINITE PERSPECTIVE' PROJECT THAT HAS BEEN ABANDONED.......WHERIN THE VIEWER COULD ZOOM, CONTINUOUSLY, INTO THE ...
"Trivial Obsessions and Refootling Postulations" OR "Maybe, you should keep your towel under your pillow"
Make sure that 'Frank' has some toilet paper.....otherwise, don't use that towel! Don't we all know at least one 'Frank', that will use your toothbrush, drink from your milk carton and fart on your silk-upholstered chair. And, never 'drink after' Frank.. You never know what he's had in his mouth, minutes before. I posted this over 6 years ago.....In the context of Today, it seems relevant...in another way, doesn't it?
As Muslims pray on the 27th Night Of Ramadaan, Cardinals pray in the Basilica of St. Peter, in preparation for The Conclave......
Most civilized Urbanites plea for attention from their countless screens, over which their fingers desperately pound, like flickers and woodpeckers, seeking....incessantly.....signs of Life beneath the barks of ancient genetic proclivities....
