pg 4 and still don't undertand a damn thing
bob - OK like for example how is it that I have come to look a lot like Socrates. And I don't understand how people make movies. How do they know what to take a picture of first, and how do all those people work together without murdering each other. And what about all the cities each with millions of miles probably of wires and pipes running everywhere. Stuff like that drives me crazy.
X3M - I see your question, but what is your problem?
JOHN MOSS - dear bob,
well, time happens. look at boy dylan. once he was young and cute, but now he looks like vincent price. that's ok, he is still one of the best songwriters our time will ever know.
as far as the movie makers. they too are artists. you never know what's going on with them deep down. they work from within. something just strikes them as the right thing to do to express themselves.
the people working on the movies though, not murdering each other, they probably just don't want to go to prison. or maybe it's the common goal to get through this thing so they can hopefully make some money and therefore buy things.
all those pipes and wires. well, I don't know what to say about that. sometimes I think about all the miles of roads we have in America. and not even just paved roads, but all the miles of forest service roads that criss cross our "wild lands". they are just there from years of people putting them there. all those wires and pipes make it so you can light up your home, and flush your toilet. don't worry, they are your friends.
something else I think about along those lines is all the food that is grown in this world. i look at the produce section in the grocery store and think about this is just one grocery store. there are many other grocery stores in this town, and many more towns with many more grocery stores and markets and all are stocked with the same multitude of food. where does it all come from? and how can they keep growing it all the time so that when i come back in a couple weeks, theres all new produce that wasn't there before. before it was perhaps still growing, or being picked, or being loaded, or being shipped or being unloaded. it's mind boggling. how does the soil sustain this I wonder.
anyway, keep pondering, it keeps your mind active.

bob - But I'm not one of the best songwriters our time will ever know. I am not anything. I don't even own a boat. What kind of man doesn't own a boat? And what about all those girls. Do they look like Vincent Price now too? Or did they get become drug addicts and die, dirty and alone, in some back alley? Or did they have children and do the children wonder where all the fruit and vegetables come from or do they just eat them and then have a poop later while playing video games on their cell phones?
Richardm - I don't think anybody knows what Socrates looked like.
bob - I do. I have seen photographs.
X3M - I see your question, but what is your problem?
