chef: getting you to think for yourself is the exact point of the book so it is safe to say that you have understood it well, the authors would be very fnord pleased to know that you don’t agree with a lot of the ideas. They would like you to question everything – everything you read or see, every pre-conceived notion and inherited idea.
Think for yourself. Don’t believe what people tell you. Find out and decide on your own. That’s the only true Discordian value.
to believe everything in that book you would technically have to be insane, considering it intentionally puts forward many contradictory ideas on equal footing.
Keep throwing the book at people. Many of them will ignore it. Some will hate it. But one or two will have their lives profoundly changed by it. And then you will be a Discordian saint and entitled to introduce your own line of memorial merchandise and/or declare a personal holiday which your employer will be required to honor.
Dark Star opening third set!
For you, Mr. C…
Yep. Thanks for throwing something in there that I might not have fnord noticed otherwise. Saul, Barney, Hagbard. Yeah, I think it’s about time to revisit the scene of the crime
That’s why I have such a list of must-reads. I’m always re-reading stuff I love.
I really liked this passage, from the Appendix: a mantra meant to be repeated every morning
I bless Ra, the fierce sun burning bright
I bless Isis-Luna in the night
I bless the air, the Horus-hawk
I bless the earth on which I walk
I’m not a religious person, but that resonated with me when I first read it
This band is playing on the night of the Wallingford TAB show, neemor Tour night…
Possible post-show extravaganza.
late notice… but reggae program’s on session. Click my name to start listening.
Now Playing:
Jah Jah Give Us Life To Live (extended)
Wailing Souls
Well, I’m still trying to find people to whom the book will stick. I live in a college town, and I barely know anybody who reads for pleasure. One of my friends just finished his first book-read-for-pleasure. He’s 23 or 24 and a teacher.
And as for contradictions, they should make people look more closely at things, but instead most people try to ignore them
Um. Dark Star.
Jazz is Dead magic happening right now.
Sorry to keep pimping it, but seriously….

Am I all alone?
I’m still around, if it’s any consolation
Zappa’s Watermelon in Easter Hay.
Magic.
Elizabeth Reed now.
Thanks for the link KWL….coincidental that you posted that. I just watched Sound Tracks: Music Without Borders on PBS and they had a segment on Sheun (I think thats how it is spelled) Kuti and how he is carrying on Fela’s legacy in a different more positive light. They also had features on Russian techno pop as propaganda, Portugese Fadu (their oldest music tradition) and how a Kazakhstan musician helped heal a divide with the Kazakhstan people; and Borat.
Anyone into music, global music, and how music transcends cultures, countries, and people will enjoy this show.
Good night.
Pretty solid review written after the Albany run, but holds up today:
