Subject: RE: BS: Immutable Truths From: Metchosin Date: 25 Sep 05 - 01:30 PM It is better to have been loved and lost, than never to have been lost at all. Wherever you go, there you are. Where there's folks, there's mire. |

Subject: RE: BS: Immutable Truths From: Lonesome EJ Date: 26 Sep 05 - 01:24 AM Just re-read my post above, and found to my complete despair that I mis-spelled "Hoggamus" in the first line. There's a rather interesting story about that little verse. Aldous Huxley was among the first experimenters with LSD. During an early trip Huxley was struck with sudden inspiration, scribbled something on a scrap of paper, and stuck it in the pocket of his overcoat. Several days later, Huxley suddenly recalled this moment of pure understanding, rushed to the coat-rack, and discovered the above cited poem. |

A really foolproof method is recommended by my friend Don Pedro (a real Ph.D., oriental languages), Pte, retd: Dip your hand into the waste oil barrel and grab a spanner. No superior will think of giving you additional orders - you are too dirty for the job. |
