GAWD ONLY KNOWS
by tiltbillings » Sat May 02, 2009 8:19 am
And it is not talking
What is the use of his knowledge
pertaining to the number of insects in the whole world?
Rather, inquire into his knowledge of
that which is to be practised by us
-- Dharmakirti
This being is bound to samsara, kamma is his means for going beyond.
SN I, 38.
Níl sa saol seo ach ceo
There is naught in this life but mist
Is ní bheimid beo ach seal beag gearr.
And we will not be alive but a short hard time.

2008 was the International Year of the Potato.
Does anyone know if 2009 is the year any particular food?

Three cheers for natural fibers and other such things. It is what any regular person needs, and that is the straight poop.

Well - just remember ... Tilt started this and he's a Mod .... 
GENEVA (AFP) — A giant inflatable dog turd by American artist Paul McCarthy blew away from an exhibition in the garden of a Swiss museum, bringing down a power line and breaking a greenhouse window before it landed again, the museum said Monday.
The art work, titled “Complex Shit”, is the size of a house. The wind carried it 200 metres (yards) from the Paul Klee Centre in Berne before it fell back to Earth in the grounds of a children’s home, said museum director Juri Steiner.

He is an incorrigible fellow, isn't he?
Now i'm not sure which of you (Chris or Tilt) should be put on pooh-patrol!
But at least the floating turds isn't the product of a greyhound. If it did it would have the consistency of undercooked and watery porridge.
Off to Under-9's football game I go.
