Everyday a little closer

Everyday

Tuesday, October 11, 2005

Golf is a good way to exercise.
But really when I think about it can be worse, imagine nameless European country where everybody is eating stale bread because back in 1786 someone forgot to finish a loaf and it, the remains had to be eaten the next day. But it was too much, so half was left for the next day = everyday you buy fresh bread but you seldom eat it.

They leave you a brown-large-envelope on your desk ..........................inside?..................a certificate applauding your 35 years of service!.........dump it and run.......

Why is that a Monday at work on a sunny day starts me thinking about the past?

and yes you may ask " What was the brown paper bag on my desk this morning?"

..........not a good idea for the org to annoy me........

I had a flashback from May 2002

Ben B is now in an altered state.............................................Me i must also be altered......

He wrote some marvelous illustrated strips.....Quote: A number of protagonist appeared in the strip, but among the best known are Bernard Mergendeiler, a victim-hero and psychological wreck devoured by tics and complexes, whom Feiffer depicted with the undertones of self-hatred and self-pity. Other characters are also more or less portrayed with black humour - the spineless men and neurotic and poisonous women. In 1958 several of the strips were published in book form under the title SICK, SICK, SICK. Since then the strips have been reprinted in both hardbound and paperback forms. .
:: Peter . 1:26 PM [+] ::

I have rediscovered Jules feiffer at a 50cent book sale.....Quote: "The whole point to drawing was to make it up out of your own imagination. Even Father and Indiana Jones was made up. Father didn't say: "Draw me" to Jimmy. He would never have said it. And Jimmy would never have done it, because why be an artist if you are going to waste your talent drawing what was there in front of your nose? It didn't make sense." (from The Man in the Ceiling, 1993)

Slowly winding down at the "Org"......the pace slows down......coversations are longer....the pauses grow....kevboarding slows to a few pecks......movement is inwards.....much shuffling around their desks...long looks at fading screens..out of windows.....packing is commencing...the pace is furious...turning-twisting- picking things off the floor.........shuffling A4 pages...brief-cases locks loudly clicking..lunch boxes being adjusted......standing...half sitting..crouching........Who will be the first to leave???.........the air is gusting as bodies move quickly to familar doors..........a week has ended.....we are off....the time is our own.....again......4.00pm.

Apologies to Ben B..... I have been "ticked off" in a blog just down the street..........i was most upset by a comment made in my direction recently.....accused of being long winded......was told if i sat down to write a suicide note i'd be found, asleep across it, only a third of the way through.....was most dismayed at this comment......what does one say to something like the suicide note comment.....and people agreed!!! many people!!! bastards! you're all on my shit list now! and i might not fall asleep writing that....i know what you are thinking....grrrrrr....bastards.....------....... ....sorry Ben B....I have no tact...and am also unreliable....what can I say except...............................................................

I am thinking of starting a Snot-Cam.....great in winter.......can't get snot out of my mind.....Is it a collection of conversations I have missed and they have been filtered in my nasal passages....just as words collect in my ear wax......I need to do more research....How many hits does Google give for Snot?..........169,000....even an artist of snot..........They must work more on their content!!!..........
:: Peter . 12:54 PM [+] ::

I have looked at Snot Cam.....and wondered ?......is it a real nose...funny that it - a nose - dominates web cams so much....yet is probably the only sense useless on the WWW.....Matt as usual is miles ahead....Ben is prosing himself to sleep....The "Org" is still at it's last landing place....and today?.....................................................I have parked the car

How can I ....born with the sounds of a typewriter catch these students with IT/CT skills.........I have recieved a email from a alien...."You can get all these services handled by some of the best attorneys in the country for only pennies a day. Why wait until you have a catastrophe and have to pay up the nose at the rate of $200 per hour? Get the same first-rate service from the same top-notched attorneys".............should I reply?......meanwhile Matt is web camming his way around the world.....

The ozone room has done wonders...the photocopier is really the "Life Support System" of the "Org"...........the air....the constant copying...the magic green light...run by one of Ben's green fairies.....

Same as it ever was........back at work, phones, paper moving across the chipboard....have not been for Coffee, everything seems slightly new after 3 days away.....Sa Go is working with me, and misses the mountains, has about 3/4's of ink left.....I am collecting all my old pens as they expire and burying them in "Org" paper with the last word they ever write.....it looks very formal and official being buried in official letterhead paper..............write on Sa Go.

Bunnings to Wa Chu was the new cathederals of waste, so many of his chinese comrades lie on shelf after shelf,....row after row...aisle after aisle......soaring ceilings of thing,........ bright banners,........ brightly dressed assistant clergy........., smells of incense, and most of all...........the intensity of the worshippers...worshoppers....they know what they want in life so clearly...they have selected their worshopping partners and now want more......and it is plastic.............
:: Peter . 9:30 PM [+] ::
...
Why Bunnings?
:: Peter . 9:26 PM [+] ::
...
Monday approaches...the doors of the Org ........three days away seems a lifetime.................................was I missed?....was it noticed?......calls not returned?.....
:: Peter . 9:25 PM [+] ::
...
Wa Chu wanted a simple farewell....it is tragic seeing the ink go lighter-fainter...small strips.dots..then nothing....Sa Go knows it is her future as well but is a resigned pen.....no rage....no gushing....steady prose....her stories of High School in Tokyo were horrific.....just as Wa Ch'u's heroic struggles against the infamy of Chiang Kai Chek......so much colour.....
:: Peter . 9:22 PM [+] ::
...
well what a weekend.....high in the mountains...Wa Chu passed away writing a lovely long word....I tried writing short modern passages too prolong his tragic life...but alas.....but he did see eagles soaring...huge clouds...and was finally laid to rest in Bunnings Croydon, row 12 -aisle B,....what he wanted....Sa Go has been a tower of strength....despite her past experiences......I wonder why there lives are so richer than the turdic roles of a Lucasism celluloid feature...plastic and ink is winning the reality wars..
