"Frog put the cookies in a box. "There," he said. "Now we will not eat any more cookies."

"But we can open the box," said Toad. "That is true." said Frog."

"Followers of the Way [of Zen], if you want to get the kind of understanding that accords with the Dharma, never be misled by others. Whether you're facing inward or facing outward, whatever you meet up with, just kill it! If you meet a buddha, kill the buddha. If you meet a patriarch, kill the patriarch. If you meet an arhat, kill the arhat. If you meet your parents, kill your parents. If you meet your kinfolk, kill your kinfolk. Then for the first time you will gain emancipation, will not be entangled with things, will pass freely anywhere you wish to go."

"NYET! You know I can only go to second base!"

"Still? After all these years?! Urrrgh! I thought the cold war was OVER!"

"It's always cold in Siberia."

(Lighting two cigarettes, then smoking both at the same time) "You want one of these?" (Throws Molotov the pack, she lights one and smokes sexily)

"GARRRRRRR!" (Stabs his knife into the mattress and stands up with a giant erection) "I gotta go take care of something."

"In recent years, with the rise of quantum computing, physicists have been gaining new insights about physical systems such as black holes by studying their information-processing abilities - as if they were quantum computers. This angle led Susskind and his collaborators to identify a candidate for the evolving quantum property of black holes that underlies their growing volume. What’s changing, the theorists say, is the “complexity” of the black hole - roughly a measure of the number of computations that would be needed to recover the black hole’s initial quantum state, at the moment it formed. After its formation, as particles inside the black hole interact with one another, the information about their initial state becomes ever more scrambled. Consequently, their complexity continuously grows."

chastity - i, the Word, say - is creation -

its breaking, breaking, breaking - until sex

is giving taking taking giving stations

like forsaking schizos is yet to know vexed.

all i say is what will make perfect sense

when ev'ry tunnel will lit'rally be cunt

become cock become the pleasure of 'and hence:' -

logic itself, then, ev'ry orgasm's runts.

the childless will be the parents of God -

the seedful become the apple they eat -

the child will be spared school to save the rod

for brats needing teaching beating's a treat.

and above all know this, my children, my mothers -

when death has died, we'll die our dead brothers
