Discovery: New Region of the Brain



Some Indian company called Ceylon Support has located an entirely new and heretofore unnoticed region of the brain recently.  It was immediately dubbed, "Gullibus Uninterruptus."  The Gullibus Uninterruptus is located behind the frontal lobe and slightly to the right of the right temporal lobe.  Scientists say that we've missed it up until now because the region existed in the shadows of the executive part of the brain.

The function of Gullibus Uninterruptus is to separate the unlucky and the dumb from the herd of ever-evolving life on the planet.  This has some specific evolutionary advantages.  For one, it will put all telemarketing scams, Nigerian scams, and politicians out of work by the year 2099.  The year 3000 will bring on a new millenium of peaceful co-existence as humans merge more and more with their technological machinery.  Stuff that we find so essential to our lives today will be our lives by 3000.  Glory!

I received a test for Gullibus Uninterruptus the other day.  Ceylon Support has been interested in studying who in the population has active Gullibi Uninterrupti and who doesn't.  I am happy to report that the results of my test are in.  My Gullibus Uninterruptus-- although once active during the initial couple of years of recovery from brain damage-- is now happily and permanently retired.  Although it is reported that the Gullibus Uninterruptus can be activated again by periods of prolonged ignorance of evidence and/or denial of the same, it is highly unlikely that mine will be re-activated in this lifetime.  When the man from Ceylon Support found this to be my case, he was butthurt.  He had to reach his quota of 1000 people with developed Gullibi Uninterrupti in order to get paid his daily wage.

This is how things went during my test:

Hello, may I please speak to the madam of the house?

She's not here.

Oh, well I can talk with you.  I am from Ceylon Support and I understand that your computer has not been getting the Microsoft Updates.

[What followed was several minutes of me irritating the tester, claiming that I could not understand him].

Your computer has not been getting the Microsoft Updates.

Hold on there.  What.  Is.  My.  Name?

I can give you the registered name of my company and my phone number-- [speeding up his words considerably.  I've learned during my recovery from this t.b.i. thing that other people speeding up their words generally means they are trying to activate my Gullibus Uninterruptus].

Excuse me.  What.  Is.  My.  Name?

My registered--

Uh, no.  Not interested.  Good-bye.

Communion




I am here and not-here in this space outside of time and distance engaged in a fight for my life as I have come to know it.

The mountains rise up within me sanctifying this sacred space.

The winds rise up within me sanctifying this sacred space.

The wild fires rise up within me sanctifying this sacred space.

The oceans rise up within me sanctifying this sacred space. 

The essences of many beings rises up within me sanctifying this sacred space.  

My own true self dances within and without this circle that I have declared to be sacred and incomplete.

I remember those who have come before me seeking sanctuary and finding none.

I remember those who will come after me seeking sanctuary and finding none.

I remember those who are here and not-here in this space outside of time and distance seeking sanctuary and finding none.

I remember those who have died, are dieing, and will die knowing that sanctuary is created within and without this communion of Other.

We are here and not-here in this space outside of time and distance engaged in a fight for our lives as we have come to know it.

We are the Other.  We create sanctuary.  Together we are beautiful and strong.

The Case Speaks



I too have a dream.  It is not such a grand dream perhaps but it is my dream.  This dream came out of my damaged brain.  It is my dream and it does not require you to break into it, analyze it, use it for fodder for your mental masturbations, and then service plan it to death.

No.  This dream that I have is my dream.  I own it.  Not you.  This is my dream.  Not yours.  Not yours to direct, encourage, masticate, or massage into some semblance of what you refer to as normalcy.

I, me, the ego that recognizes me, my own self.  Too, also.  Have, tener, hold, hold on to, gave birth to, denoting ownership of, holding as an intrinsic part of my own true self.  A, an article, one, indicating the subject.  Dream, starstuff, glitter, shine, goal, a journey, a road, a suitcase, a song.  I too have a dream.

There is no you in my dream.  There is no burden of responsibility, state funding, meetings, reports, evaluations, demands, manuals in this which is my dream.  There is no role modeling, teaching, constructive criticism, practicing, rehearsal in my dream.  Get out.
