Standing up and dropping your pants might instantly end the Merry-go-round ride, but get you a ride in the black moria instead. And with that pig directly in front of you, someone's bound to start playing air banjo music. Need is entirely relativistic. You need do nothing but wait for the ride to end. Or are your needs so great that you have the right to spoil the ride for all of the other people who paid to ride that Merry-go-round. And are you so amoral that you'd consider opening up the cental axcess panel to throw a small child into the gearwork? That'd stop the Merry-go-round. Kevin is obviously showing anti-social tendencies tonight by posing such a dangeroulsy ambiguous question that plays upon the needs of the one outweighing the needs of the many or the few. And he's also being insensitive to people who suffer from inner ear imperfections who cannot take the "head spinning" of even the mildest of carnival type rides. An action about as insesitive as going to an art museum, walking up to a picture of a pleasingly plump naked woman, pointing at the painting's signiture, and shouting, "Hey, Rube!" Now, as to my ranting tonight. What will it take for me to be able to stop? A simple look at the time. I have a ticket for the 10:50 showing of The Passion, and then a slow overnight drive to Phoenix for a booksale.
