When I look at any so-called "open system that must stay equalized" that yet somehow stirs up improbable hurricanes, I feel justified in my scepticism.
The state of perpetual emergency imposed from above by some local lord feels artificial.
What dilettante bohemians consider medicine for the soul might not be your ...

If Lenny Bruce was alive, he'd have his place in the sun, now.
Who could offer more scathing commentary on our all-too-human foibles?
The inward tension oozed from his pores.
If junkies get relief from the existential buzz, no wonder they're addicts.
Just living is work when you don't have a maid.
In this material ...

It's sobering to realize all your defining ideas are based on a misunderstanding of something somebody said.
To me, that's the story of human history.
I don't know what could change my mind, or yours, about it.

If people stopped paying attention to Britney, she'd go away.
Or else she'd get her shit together.
