Random Toughts

Random I
When one starts dressing dull moments in imitation silk – like burying milky Gefilte fish in triple-action horseradish – you know it is time to start creating new moments (or, at the very least, start buying real silk or stronger horseradish). Though it is much easier, definitely cheaper, to sprinkle a plastic Timex with diamonds than it is to set them in a platinum Cartier, it would be like making an omelet out of Faberge eggs. It is always easier to wear your talents in sackcloth than in royal robes, and easy is the name of this game.

Random II
If one were to place in front of you two boxes, one containing many small diamonds within a large coal, the other containing many small coals within a large diamond, which, of the two, would you choose – ugliness plated in beauty or beauty plated in ugliness?

Random III
Hopeless sits on a rickety bench. Desperate limps over to him and asks, “Can you please help me out?” Hopeless says, “I don’t think so”.

Walking her dog, Lonely passes by the rickety bench. Hopeless stops her. “Excuse me, what’s your name?” “Please go away,” she begs. “I don’t want to talk about it.”

Lonely walks on the green grass and her brown dog follows. The brown dog bites Violated tanning on the lawn. “I’m so sorry”, Lonely says. “Don’t be”, Violated tells her, “I’ve been bitten before”.

Random IV
Shall I tell you an old de-tale, one of humanity and divinity? It goes like this: G-d created man in His image. Period. Perfect. Now methinks, “I am created in the divine image, so everything I do is divine”. But then you-thinks, “I am created in the divine image, so everything I do is divine”. How original. A bit of a conflict in interest, don’t you think? You do realize what just happened here – instead of Man created in G-d’s image, G-d is being created in Man’s image.

We are blind as far as the I can see.
