Alright.

Saying that matter has three states of being--Solid, Liquid, and Gas. Is like saying language exists on three levels denotations, connotations, and the chaotic structural blocks we like to call letters.

If you catch my drift..., or is it getting chilly in here?

Denotations are a solid state of structure contrasted by the disconnected properties of an alphabet. So in between there is the liquid state of connotations, altogether forming a sort of completion--Complicated by the ever-changing lines in between.

then they tell you they made a lexicon--yea right.

well anyways I just finished Cats Cradle, It's 2:07 a.m. here.

I came up with an interesting thought today.

I think it just about says in the bible that people deserve to die for being stupid. I mean, what with sin and all being the cause of god condemning adam and eve to suffering and death. Is that old testament/genesis bullshit?--or should I touch up on my theology? I just thought it would be an interesting point to make. In Cats Cradle, Vonnegut does toy with the idea a bit--seemingly substituting traits of humanism for the groundwork of Bokononism. (the one sacred thing of bokononism is man)

humanism is silly though. if you were to take people as special, you would have to respect the needs of people also... meaning indirectly--everything around us.

not really much more to say about any of this... I guess people are people.

I did notice a couple good lines by Gregory Corso today--(which I should note that they were mentioned in the forward of Mindfield by Allen Ginsberg, making them obvious targets of desire)

"I found God a gigantic fly paper
I stayed out of his way"
(from Transformation and Escape)

"Nothing sits on nothing in a nothing of many nothings
----->a nothing king"
(from Notes After Blacking Out)

New song called Bangarang
or old song actually that I finally finished...

the end for now
