Monday Admonishment

 



Who do you love? Your truck, your money, the British Army, what's left of it, the ritual of the Mass itself?, the idea of Rhodesia and the Selous Scouts? How very awesome, until it isn't.




I tell you, readers, there's no luggage rack on the back of a hearse; so store up treasure in heaven, strive for eternal value. Which reminds me of all these young brokers in London, back in the day, "Value!" they'd shout, while hoisting yet another champagne bottle before they got busted for *dealing.




Gross, eh, picture the scene, all kinds of hi-spirits. That in mind, crazy rain here and we thank God for this. Providence, kids, is both loving and implacable.

Your Old Pal,

LSP

There is a discussion on fighting monkeys and money on Virtual Mirage (second post) tomorrow. Do you love your fighting monkey more than your truck? It's a question for the ages. I won't answer on behalf of your readers.

Is it better to drive to Karen's for a brisket burrito or to eat in downtown Hillsboro at Monte's Mexican food? Now there is a question.

Hope your rai is a blessing and not a flood.

Photoshop rockets. Duplicate images, perspective is backwards. Still, must have.

Rain? Oh my god!!!! Climate change!!! Take away the flush toilets and indoor plumbing and cars!

We have to destroy the planet to save it!

Thinking of you all, Parson and praying for Dallas. Be safe and God bless.

LL, there are choices to be made in life, it's the nature of free will. May we choose wisely.

For example, there's a fighting monkey in the room. Do you reason with the simian as you ask for its pronouns or do some other thing?

Again, a marauder bursts into the Compound's study demanding, "Give me the money!" You reply, "It's up the monkey," pointing to a furry floor safe. Do you, the bandit, reach for the cash or choose a different path?

Food for thought, eh.

Karens/Montes? Both/and, surely.

Yes, Anon. And most ferocious.

Infidel, the Climate keeps CHANGING!

It's not easy, I tell you.

Dallas is mostly washed away. Thanks a lot "Dick" Cheney.
