On theories that make you want to pull down your pants
and moon the wretched powers that be...
That sounds as plausible a theory as any I've ever heard
- this side of conspiracy theorists, of course!
I totally abhor ''moonwalking'' of any kind, however!
My walking is the way God Intended me to walk:
ever forward, never backwards!
Luminous Pedestrian style!
By profile!
Wooo!
Let's go for a walk now...
Woooooo - indeed!
But let's face it now: the moon affects us all
-werewolves, wolfmen or whatsnot-
and we will never escape it
(never mind those wishes of getting rid of it
Space:1999 style!
We're way past that date anyways...)
I hated that show - save for Maya... Maya... and Maya!
I can't stand that insufferable song either;
you know which one - the one that
puts it into question, in such a silly way:
''if you believe they put a man on the moon -
man on the mooooon!''
I believe you put a man in your mouth,
lead singer - but that's another (sordid) story...
We celebrated the moon landing on this blog
(or we will - all that blogging kinda has
the exact same effect on me as the time hopping
good ol' Billy Pilgrim was doing in
Slaughterhouse-Five, y'know -
especially when post-dating gets to be involved!)
so let's conclude this time out
with something far more palatable
regarding the moon and all...
“You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation,
an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world,
and a compulsion to do something about it.
From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty.
You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck
and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say,
‘Look at that, you son of a bitch.'”
― Edgar D. Mitchell

You've heard of that theory before - haven't you all?
The theory of ''invincible ignorance'' - when one chooses it
and therefore knowledge cannot penetrate in there,
breach those defences, because this type of ignorant
wants to remain ignorant!
Seems like we've reached a point in which, indeed,
amidst all the apparent wealth of data providers
and all the possible (and impossible) sources
of vital and even secret information,
that we can truly call those who shut their eyes
and stuff their ears willingly,
in order to keep out all of that from coming in,
and nurturing thought-process,
stimulate brain-cell growth
and more - much more...
well, those individuals who knowingly
or unknowingly do just that
can certainly be called
the Invincible Ignorants of the
21st Century!
Congrats... fools!
