write something nonsensical, surreal, silly. (3)

[Trailltrader]

Himmm, interesting test- close my eyes and come up with something actually newsworthy? Tough call as I've lost faith in the "lamestream media" so I get my info from Al-Jazeera and Drew Curtis' FARK.com. Al-Jazeera believe it or not reports fair and accurately- I think their standards are so high because they don't want to be ripped to shreds by their competition. Fark? Well every oddball bit of news on this planet is reported on Fark.com. Teachers/Student sex, lying politicians, NRA/Anti-gunners- even the oddball news has become passe' and NOTHING shocks me except- where were all these pretty female teachers seducing young boys when I was that age and why didn't I get "seduced"?

While Phil Robertson of "Duck Dynasty" claims that women with beards is a bummer, having your virginity is worse! Maybe. I'm not sure if I'm serious or not on this,,,,

("...credit for this one goes to some old soldier somewhere..." smiled the goblin grateful for his company, adding "...I'm looking at those links now, I'll add mine shortly...")

repost from elsewhere, the christians forum,

"...ok old soldier just a test then, simply look at the news at moment, then close your eyes and see if you can recall anything that you saw in that news that was actually newsworthy, where if you can then either you or they are slipping somewhat..." went the goblin aware that "ours is to witness" had to be in the bedrock of one's faith then, sighing "...surely they can't think us that inept as to not know nonnews when it's presented to us where no news is good news perhaps, yet where nonnews is just no news still..." and no, the goblin was not asleep to it though he did wonder upon seeing it reported as real news everyday whether either the vast majority of americans weren't asleep by now, or whether the media just thought that everyone was asleep, and was happy to just keep them that way, but doesn't the news have a nasty habit of breaking through the nonnews in the end

*Scratching his head thinking* "Perhaps Goblin you're not asking the right questions" smiles at the bemused look on the Goblins face "Perhaps the line of reasoning should be "what will sell the most advertising, and put the politicians we like that supports our beliefs into office?"

 

[fleamailman]

("...yes, there's much wrong the media today..." agreed the goblin, adding "...but ever more wrong with those viewers themselves, no it's like they don't want to see anything that leaves them pondering further, or like some work ethic where it goes against the grain to talk about either politics or religion, frankly I could never live in america like that, no it's like those tourists who come to switzerland here, who see cows, mountains, lakes and chocolate too, who they do not see the workings of switerland by it, what with one third of the world's wealth stored in swiss vaults, a perceived currency economy, one that sits upon the sidelines then...")

repost from elsewhere, chatting with the mouse again

"...oh yes, and in true mouse style too..." went the goblin coming away with all sorts of thoughts upon what he had just read from her, adding "...yes, I'm really enjoying writing at the moment, not that I'm writing much, more it's just conducive to a lifestyle of an odd coffee or two in a bistro then, oh and a wish with it, to see both what I'm thinking myself and what I'm up against vis a vis the state of things beyond onelself, beyond one's dailylife then, oh yes, that behind the scenes view of the world stage I mean, where it seems nothing ever happens until it all happens at once doesn't it, even if at this moment everything seems so calm now, but no, oil peaked awhile back where the world trade is fast moving away from the dollar at this point...", the goblin touched in fingers in turn counting the instances, going "...so how about their fanfare announcement of troupes out then, yet they're still deploying troupes after that aren't they, or their other announcement of decreasing the liquidity too, their tapering then, but aren't they still injecting liquidity though, so when has a mere decrease in some action ever become tantamount to an actual change of course now, so no then, it just means more of the same but a bit slower perhaps...", in fact, the goblin wondered if he wasn't looking at a drunk who excuses himself by stating that whereas before it was such strong scotch, his white wine today clearly indicated that he's sobering up by drinking on, sighing "...yes, sometimes one really does need a strong coffee in a bistro while stepping back from their spin to make sense of all such nonsense..."

"The Seattle Times Newspaper is about ready to have a butt rising experience" the old soldier said. "They keep whining about how the young man at Seattle Pacific University was a hero for using pepper spray on the latest gunman. NO, he was not a 'hero'. He was a desperate guy in a desperate situation who had no choice but to "take the shot". Had he been armed with a reasonable firearm it would have been much safer for HIM. This does prove the NRA is correct- the only way bad DNA can be stopped is when good DNA is armed correctly".

*Sips his whisky* "Church in a half an hour- and my breath smells like Makers Mark? AWESOME!"

Don't forget the fact that I own the world's most evil cat! She has servants...ahem....slaves...of her own! In fact, I am pretty sure she has an army of mice hidden somewhere in the house for when she goes to take over the world.

"...yes, it seemed quite obvious even..." replied the goblin noting the evil cat's hairs everywhere, adding "...well I've conversed with cat personas before, in fact I have conversed with all sorts of personas by now then...", where the more someone conversed with the goblin the more their persona came into being, adding "...perhaps you want to be a writer now, but if so, don't you first need to learn to be that which you portray in its full, thus the writer skillfully follows with his pen the scene in his mind, no not all that writing about writing you see on most writer's forums, nor for the second prize of fame and fortune neither, so why write in posts then, perhaps because the writer gets to experience first hand the work in person whereas alas the poor reader only gets to see mere footprints left by his wondrous journey...", whereupon the goblin's mind went back to the idea of what one write writes one back meaning that one becomes the persona by the practice of it, just that one's sanity seemed meager in comparison to one's applied imagination, that it was the application over the resulting result being the goblin's point of posting all along, the journey was not the footprints

But what does a goblin know? You don't even exist.

"...ah, but if that were so, then by that token then you don't exist neither, for doesn't all this become a virtual reality between us, one where everything is mere words upon your screen, a fiction perhaps, yet within this fiction it's a very real goblin that addresses you now..." smiled the goblin, quickly adding "...yes, knowledge in itself is quite useless isn't it, whereas the application of knowledge towards some greater understanding of its consequences is what one seeks from knowledge I believe..."

Hmm....

repost from elsewhere, chatting with the chameleon then

"...what, you mean swizterland actually won, no there must be some mistake then..." went the goblin fearing ten minutes ago that the rowdy noise would continue throughout the night but no, yet the dead silence has returned at this point, time enough to reflect upon the chameleon's tempting posts, saying "..and how I'd like to be in england right now, not london nor anywhere of my own past though, too painful is the past now, but simply somewhere straight out of miss marple instead, you know, somewhere where without someone being kind of bumped off in the background it wouldn't seem british enough, so yes, I want a sun whose warmth pleases without burning, just a beach with no clock in sight, but most of all, I wish that I couldn't care less anything ever again, but care I'm always doing it seems, for I am ever at the mercy of my own worries still, even where there are none I sense that they still might happen..."

repost from elsewhere chatting with a skeleton persona

"...well I guess you're finding your feet there xxxxx..." went the goblin suspecting that his might acutally be found at the end of his legs still, but that a certain green stomach confounded his conjecture somewhat, then continuing "...just so many considerations aren't there when addressing the forum reader here, where repetition, length, punchline, and fluidity too, are all just that which one masters along the way I guess...", in fact, the goblin had no advice, nor gave any neither, instead he let those who conversed with him experiment still, saying "...my three goals then, a writer's way with words, an illustrator's eye and a credible persona here, why, because a persona never grows old, far from it, if they master those three goals then, then they grow younger still, I mean wouldn't you like to be as young as you write rather than as old as you are..."

repost from elsewhere, the "should we save Iraq" thread

"...too late I fear, for now russia china and iran only have to watch america bleed itself away, for america is not seen as the protector at this point, not by anyone, not least of all those who have experienced first hand what it means to have american troupes on their soil..." mentioned the goblin wondering by what democratic yardstick could it claim to be anything but naked aggression here, what with gitmo, NSA, NDAA act, and homeland security as the supreme law of their land now, adding "...so we terrorize them into becoming terrorists while our boys either come home traumatized or in bodybags, but if it's consolation here god's blessing is that rotten empires expire in financial collapse and that this foreign occupation only speeds the empire's unaffordable demise here, for can someone remind me what the founding fathers first envisaged then, and does anyone think that their goals are somehow met by the present self serving disconnected administration, for example does anyone feel that their vote means anything at all where there is no viable difference in practice between the two parties to begin with..."

"...where alternatively, instead anyone can simply write and read the posts here directly, without paying anything for it now, and with the added advantage of these posts being interactive too, where one's readers will reply to one if one merits it..." smiled the goblin encouraging everyone here post up more poems then, adding "...for if you ever want those readers to go to you, either for your ebooks or your blog entries, then first you must give them your posts pure and simple, where if you don't offer them at least something of yourself directly here now then others will take your place while you hesitate still, I mean don't you want to know who you are by what you post and be known by what you what post too..."

repost from elsewhere, just saving it here

It seems as though those other type-ish things here are in possession of a distorted and malnourished view on our lovely Goblin. Seeing as I, just a simple Bonesage, am no longer in cerebral restraint, I can assure you all that just as a flea will deliver paper messages and notices without tire, and as a mailman is one of those things in your eye fluid you're not supposed to see but sometimes do, this Goblin has varied uses and skills and powers. Just respond, scribe something meaningful or laden with hidden meanings (Hi!) and you shall receive your livewriting sort of response. The kind that many overlook and many more find too subtlety meaningful for their consciousness to grasp. Carry on. And they all laughed when his brother was eviscerated, hell, they should have. Jeffery was a total jerk.

the goblin was appreciating the bonesage's writing style immensely, where not once was he stipulate how she should go about it, saying "...bookwriters are often alike, perhaps because books over time have come to be standardized in order either to sell or be accepted, but what we do is more like painting then, graffiti even, yes, I've been banned from many writer's forums to date, but thus livewriters differ, their readership is direct, and their readers are these posters around them, where some are book writers too, me, I'm just one of their number now, where my anonymity frees me from caring much, so no, I simply write because what one writes writes one back where the persona is the product on the practice, yet I was a good livewriter in my time I feel..."

Where have YOU two been? I've been online and it's been a real hassle the past few months. Had to put down my service dog, spent $1100 on a dog from the pound and she "won't dog" but may turn around given time. Wife right knee is going to require surgery and my Mom's kitchen floor is going to cost between $2500 to $4000 to repair. Then I've been fighting for firearm rights so everyone can be armed. It's been a rough time lately- I need some silliness in my life
