Death, the magic word! You probably are too young to remember that show Tim,, Groucho Marx tv show, You Bet Your Life with old George Fenniman as the mc? And this smart alec little duck would drop down from the ceiling holding the magic word in his beak if someone on the show happened to say it. :-) I was just trying to remember too, was that duck smoking a cigar too? :-) Really goofy stuff. Maybe someone will remember here? Anyway, back to the magic word, " death " , what everyone supposedly wants, yet turn away when they see the price tag! :-) Perhaps what the world really needs is a few more mother in laws to sort of help move the show along? :-) Judi It's even " worse " than that ;-) The one who thought he could die, isn't even there to die. What dies is the idea that there ever has been someone there to die, that something came into existence in the first place, to later go out of existence. Well, who's collecting all these toys, then? Who will enjoy all the great bodies kept in shape through bulimia and health clubs, and all the goodies we've been killing each other over? It's a " death " with no glory -- as John Lennon sang, " You're making me feel like I've never been born ... " And bad news for Adi Da - no one there to get special gifts from people whom one has lectured about their narcissism, nor anyone who could ever " avoid relationship " , and no separable body to house a " man of understanding " of " what is always already the case " ;-) Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judi Judi, I picked this photo up from http://www.tvparty.com/moviemarx.html My guess is the duck was not smoking a cigar. :-) Beck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
