Signing up for philosophy 101

Hi I'm here to sign up for the philosophy course

Why?

Because I have many unanswered questions!

Like what?

What is the meaning of life?

What is life?

I don't know, that's why I'm here

But...are you really here?

I don't know I think so!

What is the proof of your existence?

I have a birth certificate, a Photo ID
.
ok ok  How do I know this is you and not your parallel you from another
parallel universe?

You have to take my word for it!

ok

So how much for the course?

$500 cash only

I don't have cash, I have debit card only

No debit, this is Philosophy school, we only believe in what we see

invisible money is not money!

ok I will have to go to the bank and come back do you have time?

What is time?

It's 5:30pm

no, not what time is it, what is time?

I don't know, that's why I want to take the courseto answer all my questions
Speaking of time what time do classes start?

7am 

That's really early isn't it?

Not really, it's all relative...there are no absolutes...there is no correct answer
it's all true if you believe it!

so I can come at 8am then?

No! absolutely not, classes start 7am sharp!

So then what can I expect to learn about God?

We don't believe in God, God only exists in the minds of the weak. We only believe in what we see.

Ok then ...what about wi fi?

what about it? Do you have it?

Of course we have the highest technology here!

How can you have wi fi if you just said you don't believe in what you can't see?
you can't see it, yet it exists how is that possible?
(Silence)...

Can I bring my notebook?

yes and bring a pen too!

no...I mean my computer

Of course, of course, bring your computer

ok (5 minutes later)

So I'm back with the cash...here's your $500.00

Thank you

Wait a minute! How do you know that's real money?

We have a counterfeit detection system to identify false bills.

You know what! I have a built in counterfeit wisdom detection system
it's called common sense! I changed my mind, I want my money back!

What money? What is money?

My $500.00

Who are you? Do you really exist? Do I exist? Does money exist?

I'm calling the police, tell it to the judge!

Bucket List To Jesus

Now, as I retire after 50 years and look back on my life amid the well wishes from friends and the realization that this old body can no longer handle what my brain still yearns of me, I have no regrets for I have won this race. I have won because my adventure bucket list decanted from a fast pace to a slower pace of painting, writing, hunting, and fishing, taking the place of horses and playing cowboy leaving only the motorcycle to soothe the rush. My focus has drawn more to Jesus and sharing with others his abundant grace and love. He really is the Prince of Peace. It is the peace of knowing that the God, who encompasses all the universe, knows me by name, hears my prayers though a sea of humanity is issuing prayers also. He sent the Christ to shed his blood for me and the Holy Spirit to live in me, though I’ve battled him to go my own way. His name is written on creation, is seen in the stars and his image lives in mankind and nature on this earth. He is the first and the last, he is the Alpha and Omega he is the Godhead which is mentioned three times in the Bible and verifies John 5:7 “For there is three that bear witness in heaven, The Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit and these three are one. and there are three that bear witness on earth, the Spirit, and the water and the blood.”
Jesus told Peter that He would send a comforter [ the Holy Spirit.] to them. Only God could do that.
It was Yahweh, though I fail him, that let me survive those stumbling steps of my life. It is Christ that 
Is truth in his glory and atonement, through his blood, he is the perfect lamb of God. 
Romans 1:21 Because that when they knew God, [ Jesus] they knew him not as God, they glorified him not as God; but became vain in their imaginations and their hearts were darkened. Romans 1:22. professing themselves to be wise they became fools.” This reminds me of what we see now in America.  
John17:4 I have glorified thee on earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
John 17:5 And now, O father, glorify me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee
before the world was. [A witness to the Deity of Jesus.]
                  
Do not take my word for any scripture I defend, judge for yourself.

Oh Dear Oh Dear Oh Dear the Vandals Have Struck

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
By Stanley Russell Harris
The new mad author

Ho, ho, ho, the Christmas vandals have struck.
Where you might well ask?
Felixstowe,at the beach huts.
Three times now, those blinking vandals.
Have struck at my beach but there.
Is it not too much to ask them.
Too vandalise elsewhere?
I mean three times my hut’s been vandalised.
And it’s not cruel to anyone.
Mind you, I might be later on.
If I catch those vandalisers!
Doing what they do for fun.
I am slightly annoyed.
I am slightly perturbed.
I am also blinking mad.
You’ll have to take my word.
I will repair.my beach hut door.
It will look quite posh, you know.
Then, when I put up for sale.
Up the price will go.
Felixstowe may not be Southwold.  
Where beach huts are worth their weight in gold!
But the amenities at Felixstowe are increased, so I have been told.
Children have a play area, it is very nice indeed.
There are posh toilets and a shower to wash off that sea weed.
Kiosk selling cakes and drinks coffee and tea I mean.
Another sells seaside novelties and lovely ice cream.
I think I’ll mention all this in my advert for my beach hut.
But I will leave out them vandals no publicity then I will give.
I only hope without the fame, they can really live.
I have the wood, screws and nails matching paint as well.
And if I see those vandals!
  I could nail them down as well.
I’m booking all my expense; it could be quite a lot.
So when those vandals are caught they can pay for it, I certainly will not.
Of course there is no CCTV, and witnesses there are none.
Of those dear blinking vandals, having so much fun.
And as Christmas is coming and if they caught you know.
I’m sure the magistrate will be lenient and let them blighters go.
Personally I would lock them up and throw away the key.
Then my beach hut would be safe from the vandals, do you agree?
Mine was not the only hut they did vandalise so.
I’m sure they had a good time at the seaside you know.
Playing kick the door in, smash the windows too.
Trying to find something to steal, I hope it wasn’t you!
No, poets are nice people, they really are you know.
And on that note, I must finish as it is now time to go.

Brilliant, Grandiloquent Magnificent Trenchant

Brilliant, grandiloquent, magnificent, trenchant...

Writing prompts burst asunder

Analogous catching

Premium Member THESE HOLIDAYS

These holidays, like a whirlwind romance…can’t catch my breath. Hustle and bustle of parties and gifts. Figuring it all out, the list, counting it at least twice. Birthday parties piled up, tissue paper scattered like snowballs or tumbleweed. Rolling the dice, flipping cards, cookies and cake some more…some more. New Year’s Eve brings a birthday not a hollow ring, nor cutesy bells. Initialization of the New Year, more of the same, as my baby was sick during December - first her youngest then mine. 

born eve of new year
wore tax exemption onesie -
written fifty times

I exaggerate, but the shirt cannot be found for evidence so you will have to take my word for it. Don’t call me a liar, for too many folks have their “pants on fire,” if they can find their pants, for they even misplace their cocaine.

These holidays I run through like I am running on hot coals, still thinking of others. One fun annual event is going to the Melting Pot with my sisters. The one time of year we disappear from our lives, dress up and just laugh and laugh some more, cheer ourselves as if we were little kids, dripping with chocolate treats.

we’re fond of fondue
we share with a wine bottle -
bonding us sisters

So, is it over after the first? You might think so, but then the third. Yes, the third is time for more cake and ice cream. I’m creamed…tired, that is. Frothing topples over into January. I can’t win, you know. I’ve tried. So somewhere down the line, I have to get my waistline back.

sense of humor kept
up-down I drift on the raft  -
days of endless froth

I am not complaining. Life is full. I’m retired but the calendar is full. There is time for slow down. I don’t hope for that yet. Meetings set, beta book readings, one year Bible…ahh…in the beginning…for somehow it tickled me to read as I bought my book at a library sale and started with October, thus I just finished Revelation.

going on and on
sorry for the long poem -
Happy New Year friends

In Order That You May Live With Me For All Eternity

In Order that You May Live With Me for All Eternity

On a cold dark night 
In a musty old stable
A King was born
He was not born with a crown
He did not wear any fancy designer labels
He was brought into the cold reality of this world with one purpose
He was sent here to set all mankind free
Free from the captivity of the evil one
The evil one called Lucifer
Have you ever heard of him?
His desire is the same as it was from the very beginning of time
To drag your soul and every soul of the entire human race 
To his dragon’s lair
This is the cold reality of hell
A burning inferno
An incomparable torture chamber 
Surely you thought you would be free after satisfying your flesh 
For all these years you thought you were truly free
Had you ever considered that it was a scam?
A trap?
A ploy that was set in motion millions of years ago?
I have come to set you free
Free from the bondage of the flesh
Free from the entrapment of the enemy
He had convinced many he came to give mankind a good time
Just one puff on a cigar
Just one drink of liquor
He is a sneaky old Serpent
He came to ensnare you and all of your loved ones
I have come down from my throne in the heavenlies 
To unwind the damage
The old serpent set in motion
In my holy word it is written
Man cannot live on bread alone
But by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God
Take my word
My Holy Word
And eat 
Eat all of it!
Within it are the measures that each of you can take to overcome the enemy
It is not that difficult to love one’s neighbor
It is not that difficult to love your Creator
Come unto me 
I am the Lamb that was slain for the sins of mankind
I am the babe that lay in the musty old manger
Come unto me this day before it’s too late
Eternity is such a long time
And hell was never meant for my children
Love,
Jesus

Wisdom Didactic

Give children oxygen at least one time a day
Give infants bottles filled with empty promises
Use binoculars to witness criminal activity
Keep neighbors at a distance, say from here to Mars
Keep thoughts to yourself, never in your pockets 
Keep an open mind in case you need a parking space
Buy food then eat it to survive
Make babies at your leisure
Use a partner to save time
Make a shopping list that includes dozens of oxygens
Make a dictionary that includes the word oxygens
Buy one more bottle at the store for security
Promise to never read the shopping list
Keep it in sight and never let it leave your side
Leave the light on by your nightstand to see it twice
Stay focused on important things that start with the letter X
Mark X on every document
Mark “A” if you run out of Xes 
Make Xes a new word invented for your dictionary
Use a large letter A if you discover adulterers 
Buy more letters to cover every contingency
Fill the refrigerator with fresh milk
Leave babies and infants outside of it
Keep all children away from hot and cold
Remember they are sensitive to light and life
Breath air in and out for system balance
Take a supply of oxygen in case you want to leave
Never leave unless you intend to travel
Close the door to keep mosquitoes out
Take time to figure what it is all about


Authors note:  I checked the dictionary.  The plural of X is Xes.  You don't have to invest in or invent a new dictionary.  Also:  The singular and plural for oxygen is oxygen. However, in more specific contexts, the plural form can also be oxygens e.g. in reference to various types of oxygens or a collection of oxygens.  (It is best if you leave it alone unless you intend on using it.)  Also:  I discovered you can use “A” for apple or Adultery (but don't take my word for it and don't make any commitments unless you are sure.)

During the Day I'M Proud But At Night I'M Not Allowed

Edit 

	EIGHTH AT EIGHT 
    
While walking when the southern wind changes in my direction
and become nor-easters such as a festering infection
I have not a choice but to go where my worn out shoes will take me
Until I reach far enough south for the sun to bake me 
so people inquire why I don't drive a car
and i tell them were i to own one I'd drive after leaving a bar

Panama Pete, the barkeep, knows straight vodka is all i ever drink
and he knows how many I need to no longer think
since drinking at eight A.M. only gets me in trouble with ladies or the law
and please don't think that alcohol is my only flaw

so I leave old Pete with his Panama hat well worn
until, more often than not, I awake on some stranger's lawn
how I got there and why I am indifferent to
and take my word for it I am different from you
you probably have loved ones who would care if you die
I, however, could expire and not a soul on earth would cry
no moans, no groans and no tears would be shed
for only Panama Pete will miss me when I'm dead

other people I’ve cheated will care not because they despise me
and no tuxedo, three piece suit nor pin-stripes can disguise me
i am what i am because of a detrimental mind
and people can discern what i am even if they're blind

So I arise from a stranger's lawn and keep on the run
while walking and vying with the wind or the sun
I am a walking and talking riddle and/or pun
and will be so until this farce of my life is deliberately done
(c) 2010......Poefree
(Panama Pete is actually his name and owns or owned a seedy bar on eighth avenue and 46th 
Street in Manhattan. i haven't seen him in eleven years but if he’s still among the living I’m 
giving ten to one odds that say, were i to walk in his establishment right now he'd pour me four 
and one on the house)

Do We Sleep To Dream Or To Forget

Do We Sleep to Dream or to Forget



Do we sleep to dream or to forget is the question I get asked a lot from my clients
Whom I council, for you see I am an unlicensed psychologist but a sarcastic psychologist at that. (Don’t tell anyone is my only disclaimer). Anyway, to answer your question about sleep, I always thought sleeping it was something everyone did like a natural reflex to shut down and detach from all the repetitive bull-crap they experienced throughout their day. I mean come on! Lets face the facts we all need to sleep even if you don’t have a bed to sleep on or in what ever never mind I said that back to the question.
I would say to the best of my knowledge and understanding that’s a common fact that not only do we dream to sleep, ah; umm I mean sleep to dream but we also sleep to forget as in that house party you had when your parents were on vacation.
Or that break up from that psychotic ex-girlfriend who was half stacker and half bipolar activist always coming up with reasons to monitor your every move. Like your work schedule, classmates, on the attendance, mid-terms, final exams and every phone number in  the your contacts list in your phone, plus the number of followers and friends you have on ever social media site in existence. Or that time you and your friends got into a nightclub with fake ID’s that were poorly made and ended up getting so drunk that you forgot your own name. 
So there you have it folks I would say yes we do sleep to not only dream but to forget. But don’t take my word for it  no seriously don’t because you are dreaming and I am just a random voice in your head and you are most likely tripped out somewhere thinking to a licensed therapist but you’re not.

Your hangover will begin in 3,2,1 Wake up!!
