The kind of humor I like is the thing that makes me laugh for five seconds and think for ten minutes = G. CARLIN...Stain glass, engraved glass, frosted glass

I cannot live without the oxygen of laughter = DAWN POWELL ... !!! ... But laughter cannot survive without the hydrogen of gravitas = PAUL OLIVERIO

Think ... Think ... Then Consider Yourself Warned

_______________________________________________________________________________________________
 
 
You think 
you know
Everything
  
If not yourself, 
you 
have heard
the 
greatest authorities
and 
they bestowed
their knowledge 
on you
to complete
your completeness 
 
And then
—of course— 
you concluded
 
I now 
know everything 
 
And 
what you don't know
has yet to be said
 
UNTIL NOW:
 
There is no 
act/action
more perverse
than 
thinking
 
If you think
that's not true,
here's what you 
need to do:
 
Think
not 
one thought
unless
someone else
has thought it
before you
 
Otherwise, 
you 
and your thoughts
become a stranded island
incapable
of 
being rescued
 
❗❗❗

    I apologize to the great Mastermind: JAMES BROWN
    who enlightened the world
    and the dance floor
    with the Socratic phrase
    "Think For Yourself"

    That phrase evolved from Socrates McNasty,
    an imperial and judicial Dance Contest monitor

    I think I've said enough

    Through all his Jabberwocky, Mr. Oliverio
    was attempting to say
    Think with your feet
    and your mind can skip a beat.

      Whoever the hell said that,
      knows me better than I know myself
      AND
      explains the reason my song
      by a former member of the BEATLES
      is Ringo Starr's COOCHIE COOCHIE
