Now you're trying to get me started....
The dumbass s**t we forget we do.............................................

Steep price for mankind to pay but I suppose peace isn't enough to keep the economy going.

[Ed Hart]

and the added benefit of population control...speaking generally, we are a raggedy people, and belong more to the crowd than to ourselves...

[1VJ]

Sad state of affairs for humanity eh?

[Ed Hart]

we climb out of the hole one at a time, and all by ourselves

[1VJ]

In and out, it seems. Yep.

[Terpsichore]

Yup, like I said, all downhill...

[Terpsichore]

It all went wrong when Fred Homo erectus fancied his next door neighbours cave and went out and fashioned himself a big stone club. It's been all downhill ever since. :))

[Ed Hart]

the guy with the club and two caves, he thought it worked out just fine...thanks, Mr T

we can rant about soldiers and politicians, but where would we be without them, literally? Probably still plopping about in the primordial swamp. Happy days.

[Ed Hart]

you think we're not still plopping about in the primordial swamp? happy days, yourself

[Relic]

There is profit in war. That statement is something my mind could not grasp when first I heard it. Would our leaders really sacrifice others in order to attain it? Is it really that powerful? I've learned that when the orators wrap it in lies it certainly can be.

It is a sad state of affairs we live in.

[Ed Hart]

territoriality is a synonym for warfare...it is a genetically engineered impulse...for all our skill at adaptation and engineering, we seem unable to see through the trees to the forest...

Loud bangs the drum of Man's future... until the skin splits? Your words are few and yet so powerful, Sir Hart.. Our world is tumbling out of space as our caution and care lose their right paths. You write about tragedy in such a skeletal manner but the man who cares shows amazing strength.

[Ed Hart]

something else will probably get us, before we get ourselves

[emmajoy]

Some great thinker (he claimed) once said: 'The biggest evil on this planet is Man himself.. unwrap carefully but quickly and, if you dare, see for yourself.

[SkinlessFrank]

oh where are we going and why, why?

[Ed Hart]

"Hear the loud alarm bells,
Brazen bells!"

[SkinlessFrank]

exactly it

[Ken Simm.]

I will always envy the way you can use words Ed.

[Ed Hart]

thank you Ken...it seems we are left with only that to say to each other

[J. J. Nightingale]

lies and orators
the ever and ongoing
entertainment of death

This is all I understand ... I guess ... sigh

wow.......and sigh ..........J.J.

[Ed Hart]

you understand, thank you dear JJ

[J. J. Nightingale]

YOU R WELCOME..... J.
