Bollocks, this should do it.

What can I say that's gonna change the world? Do you believe all that bollocks about a grain of sand?
The world is the world is the world. Ever changing but always the same.
Thus spake Sri Gobshiteananda

  1. Actually I do believe in that grain of sand thing.


    At least I think I do.

  2. is the grain of sand thing similar to the butterfly closing its wings thing?

  3. I have no idea what you are talking about, but the three posts today was a good idea, and I applaud you for them.

  4. all you can change is your own little corner, but if you can get your neibors to agree on what needs to be changed and then they do it, you've made a rather large difference. or at least pretty ripples.

  5. The world will be the world, be the world. So why don't we let it be and simply 'be'.

  6. Ok, all you filosofers out there, it was just a throw-away remark. Obviously if you move a grain of sand you change the whole world, but what Shri Gobshite is getting at is no matter how many grains of sand you move, or how many butterflies wings move, the nature of the the universe is eternal duality. Anyone still with me.
    In other words, you can't change it so just make the best of it.

  7. You CAN change it.

    It's what you change it to that matters. Just ask Martin Luther King. Or Hitler, come to that.

    Obviously, I didn't mean literally ask them. They're dead. I was speaking metaf... metphorolll... mettaphorolica... In tongues.

  8. you better get on with it then Tom, Mark has has decreed it thus (albeit in meta-tongues) - what will you change first?

  9. i argue the duality thing with my daughter all the time. i say there are three things which turn the universe. the first two things, and choice.

  10. OK, I'll rise to the challenge on this one. What would I change first? Well it would have to be the hideous illusion that somehow people believe that there is some kind of connection between happines and wealth.
    That should sort a few things out in a stroke.

  11. Oh I dunno. I am always just a bit happier when I am able to meet my bills for the month. Mind you, I don't have anything left over.


    Oh, you said wealth

    Perhaps I should put your idea to the test. Anyone care to make me wealthy so I can form an opinion on this? Anyone? Anyone?

  13. Tom, I'll be quite happy when I've got a '62 Sunburst Strat but I'll need to be quite wealthy to do it. I know it's only things but some things are nice.

    If I could change one thing in the universe what would it be? Is that the game today?
    Well, I think that there is a woman just outside Bucharest who has made a particularly unfortunate choice of colour for the inside of her kitchen cupboards. I think a pale blue would be better.

  15. Vicus, it is so easy to please you, I like that.

    I'd like to say that the one thing that I would change in the universe is to have world peace but then I'd be delusional. I guess it would be either winning the lotto or marrying a plastic surgeon. And today I'm leaning more towards the plastic surgeon.

    Carmenzta, if you are leaning towards your plastic surgeon, then I suggest you choose a chiropractor, or someone else who can help with your posture. If you have the face and butt of Goldie Hawn, but walk at a tilt, there are very few men who would consider you to be perfect.
    I hope this helps.

  17. Vicus, I don't want to be perfect and a little tilt will not detract from my Goldie Hawn-esque (not) beauty.

  20. Tommy dearest, it's time for you to do another post. Vicus has restorted to telling Carmy to come poop in his garden, and putting more naughty words on his blog.

    We need the voice of reason. Since we can't seem to get that, could we have you then?
