5:15 am after a long, hard, night of work... mostly putting up with bullsh*t
it's scary how the real world is now looking and feeling like a movie. everything has become larger than it used to be and that's funny because through the years most things have gotten smaller. my list of important things for instance, i'm boiling it down to the all important ones.
back to the original point...
it could also be said how sad it is that life has become almost unbelievable at times. i know that i personally have said many times "i don't believe what i'm hearing" when listen to the U.S. foreign policy, and when i hear about what little of a domestic policy that's left. perhaps shakespear was warning us not explaining things when he said all the worlds a stage and the men and women simply players in it. the question then becomes not what are they thinking but who's writting this f-ed up reality. the way things are going it seems to be a sadistic author. still... at least i can post this on the internet without fear. i'm not bragging, in a haha sucks to be you way, i'm just very thankful for the life i'm able to lead here. one last thing to think about. just because a person disagrees with the government and what it has come to stand for, that doesn't mean that the same person isn't proud to live in this great country, it just means we think it can live up to the myths surrounding it now.

I think I know what you mean, how you are living in the life and yet feel seperated from it, numbed somehow. I think thats what a great many people go through, unfortunately many choose to separate themselves from it, using TV, sports, video games, the internet or any other of the multitudinous distractions (is that even a word?.. well it is now). So when something happens, something of real importance actually takes place people are like drugged up monkeys, only capable of throwing shit around.
Good post Mr Puzzle Box... as always thought provoking.
Reminds me of a Calvin and Hobbes dialogue:
Mother: Did you like the book?
Calvin: Yeah, it was deep and very thought provoking.
Mother: I'm glad you liked it.
Calvin: It made my life complicated. Don't give me any more.
I missed the last part too, the part about the myths... I think that's a really interesting statement, because it asks us to really question the nature of patriotism in the first place, and that's something a lot of Americans are finding hard to do.
Hi! Just want to say what a nice site. Bye, see you soon.
