You can see the whole Earth from the Moon!

Forget bread and circuses,
television is the opium of
the dumb masses.

When Jeff C. cries out “911″
on “Celebrity Rehab II” 

is he screaming for release

from the hospital or
just performing for the camera?

If we all had our own
reality show, who would
be left to watch it?

All the world is a stage,
but in the world of today
we have too many ham actors.

We are each the center
of our own universe,
and everything revolves 

around us.

We are the sun,
and the more light and
warmth we can project
outwards,
the more the light
and warmth will reflect
back onto ourselves.

We all perceive the
world from inside
our own personal
“Skinner Box”.

We have five holes
to experience our
world through,
eyes, ears, touch, taste
and smell.

The world is much like
television, neither good nor
bad, it just depends on the
channel.

Before bad TV there
were banal books,
before that stories
around a campfire,
some good,
some bad.

We can blame the medium
or just choose to change
our channel selections,
or perhaps even turn
the infernal thing off.

Introspection of life
is an endless project,
even if you figure it all out
and you are right,
you will not know you are
right and hence move on
to the next answer.

I discovered the
meaning of life years ago.

Life is what you are doing
when you are not sitting around
wondering about the meaning of
life.

Man is smart enough to question,
but too dim and limited to ever
understand the answers,
even if we find them.

One must laugh at
life for it is too absurd
to ever be taken seriously.
