Never clean up your bed

Maak nooit je bed op:


Experiences and experiments, without a theory that binds them into a coherent system, are just a collection of trivia from which we learn nothing. Useless, like this book, collecting 115 results of scientific experiments, but failing in creating a new philosophy, despite the promising title. Relaxing and effective for toilet readings, its pages are of the right format for the hygienic ritual that follows those sittings.

Damn God!

I discovered that in the Netherlands blasphemy is a crime. God damn it, how can this possibly be true? I mean, I do understand that offending or denigrating people should be a crime, as well as calumny; people deserve respect as far as I am concerned. But a thing? A non-existing one?
I always wondered on how to define blasphemy. For instance, if I would believe in the holiness of rose scent, can I convict anyone that farts? Maybe blasphemy holds only for the main religions, but I cannot define the criteria to decide when a belief is a main religion. Even if we would agree on what a main religion is, and I guess we would not, I still find it absurd. Christians for instance, members of what most consider a main religion, believe in a god which is one and three (1=3, that's an interesting mathematical system), namely a GodFather, a Son of his Father, and a Holy Spirit that flows from the Godfather to the son of his Father to give him Christian life (sperm!?); the mother of the Son, called Maria, does not actually know who the owner of the Holy Spirit is, and sells a tale to her husband Joseph, who believes her for stupidity or necessity, only God knows. And I probably can get convicted for writing this post!!!
Scientology adepts believe that extra-terrestrial beings have come to the earth to spread the true belief, and luckily Ron Hubbard could reveal it to us. Their god has supernatural powers, like Spiderman and Batman do, Superman and the Incredibles. Horny Maria!!!

Damn it! I just got a revelation. Holy Vanessa appeared to me and showed me the True Heaven, and the life that brings to it. It's a life of love, the more love the better. She showed me the Holy Hole and announced me the price. Believe me, no negotiations, it's a deal. Follow me, and I will bring you to Vanessa.

Phantogram - When I'm Small



So show me love
You got your hands on the button now

I'd rather die
than be with you

Clear Language

"We will leverage on our position to increase penetration."

This is how our Chief of Strategy attempted to inspire us, today. I could not agree more.

It's all because of you

You don't wonder where we're going
Or remember where we've been



Elections

Next week, for the first time in my life, I am going to vote for the Dutch parliament. I thought voting would be easy, I thought my mind was made, but scientific research  demonstrated that my real preference was for the Party Animals. I do not have the age for them, so I think I'll go for 2nd preference, Leftgreen. Their program, very close to the "New Deal" can assure us a better future. And above all, their leader, Femke Halsema, has the most charming dutch voice ever.

What do your fingers know?



Cake - When you sleep


when you sleep where do your fingers go?
what do your fingers know
what do your fingers show
where do your fingers go

when you sleep
do they tremble on the edge of the bed
or do you fold them neatly by your head
do they clench like claws against your own skin
when you're living your day al over again

when you sleep
when you sleep where do your fingers go?
what do your fingers know
what do your fingers show
where do your fingers go

do they play guitar in a latin bar
are they strangers or lovers
do they drive your car
are they swimming submissively
sex acts of life
or just cutting through jello with a very sharp knife

now zeus was a womanizer
always on the make
but hera usually punished her that zeus was one to take

when you sleep where do your fingers go?

are they pulling out weeds from the dusty soil
but then never rewarded with the fruits of their toil
are they scratching their nails on the chalkboards of death
only seeking attention when everyone in the room has left

when you sleep
when you sleep where do your fingers go?
what do your fingers know
what do your fingers show
where do your fingers go

when you sleep
do they tremble on the edge of the bed
or do you fold them neatly by your head
