Some Practical Philosophy

Will Rogers, who died in a 1935 plane crash, was one of the greatest sages the world has ever known.

Enjoy the following:

  1. Never slap a man who’s chewing tobacco.

  2. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.

  3. There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.

  4. Never miss a good chance to shut up.

  5. Always drink upstream from the herd.

  6. If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

  7. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it and put it back into your pocket.

  8. There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.

  9. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

  10. If you’re riding’ ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it’s still there.

  11. Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier’n puttin’ it back.

  12. After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral: When you’re full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

Intuition or Gibberish?

The physical universe

And the spiritual universe

Are subsets of the Universe of Consideration.

.

The Universe of Consideration seems to come about

Because of the effort of the Unknowable

To know itself.

.

It is Looking that seems to be creating space.

It is Looking that seems to be accelerating the expansion of the universe.

It is Looking that is collapsing the wave function.

Could this looking be that dreaded Unknowable?

.

Space fills itself with space.

Space is its own fabric.

Space undulates…

And that is light.

.

Space undulating is “space + time”

And that is energy (light is one expression of that energy)

Presence of time indicates presence of additives.

An additive is the basic inconsistency.

.

The true nature of a number is “irrational.”

Could the rational number be a “collapsed irrational number.”

.

The true nature of matter and energy also seems to be “irrational.”

Could the discreteness of matter and energy be “collapsed matter and energy.”

.

Could the discreteness of consideration be a “collapsed consideration.”

 .

Are there some connections…

Or, is it all just insane gibberish?
