I've been working for 12 hours so far today... and I think that maybe I'll do another 6.
I'm down for a break and I'm thinking.... I should not have eaten the whole think. I was so hungry and ate too much. Now I feel really crappy.
Oh well... back to work.

I think you should let them order it for themselves. I swear, Tink, you just keep babying those kitties and their never going to get jobs and move out. ;)

I am thinking,
--that I am going to acquire a nice, skimpy bikini top to wear whilst driving my car and under my work shirt, on very hot days.
--of getting in 5-7 hours of electro, today.
--of spending a goodly amount of time in study.
--of mowing the lawn. :(
--of making a slight adjustment to my new exhaust system installation.
--of doing my stretching exercises.
--of praying.
--of searching online for aviation [preferably, Defense Contractors] employment.
--of ascertaining the viability and profitability of getting into technical writing, as a career.
Alot on the mind, today - but that's OK. :)

I am thinking about whether a structureless object can have a pointlike form, or not.
Not sure it matters, because nothing down in there in tinytown can be depicted 'as it is' anyway.
[and it's over there...]

Now I am thinking that the $3.20 burrito at Las Palmas is a pretty good option.

I am thinking about Chao-Chou's dog (Chao-Chou sez: Mu, *without*, to the question 'does a dog have the Buddha Nature) and how this might correlate with a chicken on a path to being lunch)
* * *
Chao-Chou's answer has subsequently been interpreted to mean that all such categorical thinking is in fact a delusion. In other words, yes and no are both right and wrong.
In his 1974 novel Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Robert M. Pirsig translated mu as "no thing", saying that it meant "unask the question". He offered the example of a computer circuit using the binary numeral system:
"For example, it's stated over and over again that computer circuits exhibit only two states, a voltage for "one" and a voltage for "zero". That's silly!
Any computer-electronics technician knows otherwise. Try to find a voltage representing one or zero when the power is off! The circuits are in a mu-state."

She go MU

I'm thinking that if you wouldn't buy spam, your life would improve measurably. The same for the corned beef if it is canned.

I'm thinking that I want to live where you do.
Though, I guess, if I am Neutrois, I am MtN.
Now I'm wondering if all Ns are One.
No more F. No more M. Are we not N?
or, if not N, then are we not Devo?
Now I think I must go.
