My Mission, Should I Choose to Accept It

My Mission, Should I Choose to Accept It
Another mission-statement ...

When I was born, I was a little boy; going to school, I went from being a little boy to a little-boy (and later a little-man ... i.e. rather than small in stature while 'discovering' the world, I grew larger while my little world stayed the same size---leaving me to become "master over my little world").

If the world had stayed the same since antiquity (i.e. none of that bothersome 'New World' rigamerole), I would've been Knapp, a wage-slave, and would have risen to become king ... of the wage-slaves.

But in the world today your 'fate' is not determined by 'what your ancestors were,' but by a) how well you can do what people make you do, b) how well you do whatever-else people let you do, and/or c) whether you can get away with doing what they don't let you do.

My path lies somewhere between (b) and (c): at the beginning of my life, I was going to be a 'star' (I was thinking of something somewhere-between a ninja/cowboy and a piano-man/rhythm-section); the dream of 'stardom' got flushed down the drain by a brain-injury, but "left a floater" in the form of this body and its now-warped brain.

Now I'm 'stuck' in Oklahoma City (I say 'stuck,' but it's really a great town. I'd actually be 'stuck' anywhere I went, as a} I can't drive, and b} taxicabs cost money, which I don't have much due to the fact that I can't stay "in sync" with people long enough pull down decent wages).

It turns out that this blog (and a few others I'll link-to from time to time) is about the closest I'll get to being 'in sync.'

Above this article, I will-post/have-posted/had-will-benv-postingor a series of articles from my other various blog (which I wrote when I was under the delusion that people actually took time to read the long ones lol) ...

... Don't get me wrong, some people do read the
monstrously-long posts there (semi-retirees, etc.),
but most MySpace-ers--if they're anything like
me--were just there to see one super-hot hottie
or another ...

In those posts, you'll read of the way my mind and spirit would solve all this world's problems ... so long as nobody really wants the problems to begin with ...

Ouch! Must have been painful for your mom

"When I was born, I was a little boy" ;-)

It's never too late to be a ninja-cowboy!
