Why would that > Being insult Himself? P: You know what? You both are great fellows, and very wise. If I had to choose one, it'll be hard, but I think Silver is a nose ahead of Larry, and would be declared the winner in a photo finish decision. Why? Larry is still caught up in the artist thing. Promoting his name, trying to become famous, pushing his site under everyone noses, pushing his paintings, poems, music. Nothing wrong with that, unless at the same time you are claiming, or hinting at being realized, and liberated. Sorry, can't do! Not while trying to keep an imaginary character on the limelight. Let's face it, one day, you will have to choose between seeking fame or the unknown. Silver is ahead because Silver is not promoting Silver, selling Silver, or any Silver object! Hi Ho....
