Time for a change? Maybe you'd like to join me in asking for a small change.

[Time for a pause]

I wanted to envoke a bit of change. I think there is to much emotional attacking in pollitical groups and often the Quiet public is forgotten I want to organise people together that are usualy silent to stand up once in large numbers to silence those that yell and scream their political emotions that infringe upon others rights to freedom of life liberty and the persuit of happiness which some miss use and become more misserable.

I would like reponses about Intrest and suggestions on when I thought september 10th might be a good date because I have noticed many have forgotten already the day after. I would like the world to be quiet as we remember the Fallen.

You killed my flower, Man!

[Pan_Yans Wife]

So I am calling upon the people of the nation who want a moment of pollitical silence to ask others to join in and walk in silent protest at their local capitols and ask the politicians in side to take a moment and ponder about what is going on and about what is best for all not just their pollitical positions and how to get the most votes and I hope that I can find a few people that find what I am asking as reasonable and would head the call to ask for protection against these violent emotions that I have begun to see sweep the country.

I like your screen name. Pausing is also applicable when trying to avoid composing a run-on sentence.

I just watched that movie with my mom a few weeks ago. Still hilarious.

Would you all take my hand and sing along?

"You are a Child of the Universe...."

[Esther Ruth]

Do tell us what you are smoking or what kind of fad diet you are on that is causing this so we can avoid it, with all due unrespect.

You could go sit in the field with the quiet flowers if your looking for silence but you will have to ask your diety to stop the wind first.

[Pan_Yans Wife]

Give or take a moment or two.

[mystery-ak]

Well, I know it's time for a change in my reading glasses...my poor eyes.....please use paragraphs.

[jwalburg]

We are the world

Nice try,buy earmuffs,cause it's gonna get louder!

NEVER FORGET!

May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't.

And now, we're gonna jump on you like Nero jumped on Poppeia!

I like HIAHC's better.

The pause that refreshes will be the day the socialists and terrorists are wiped off the face of the earth.

Hrmmm.

Seems to me that what you want is for conservatives to win.

You see, that's what conservatism at heart is - a desire to stop changing 6,000+ year old customs and traditions (like marriage) on a whim. We want to go back to a time when there was such a thing as personal pride and self-respect. A time when religious devotion was respected, not mocked. A time when liberals -weren't- looking for another millenia-old tradition to subvert and destroy.

If you know people who are sick of the whirlwind of change that's been going on for the last several decades, maybe they should decide to become conservatives. Then they can join in the fight to stop the Left from redefining Western civilization based on nothing more than their own mind-boggling arrogance that their experience outweighs the accumulated wisdom of all manking from the dawn of time until now.

But you probably won't see that, because you hear the Left tell you every day that it's the Right that is "divisive". Apparently, if you want to keep a certain tradition the same way it has been for 6,000 years, you're the divisive one. Those who dosn't want to redefine 6,000 year old institutions, enact a culture of infant death-worship, or use the Constitution for toilet paper are divisive and mean. Those who want to do all of the above, they're "bringing people together" - all in the name of "diversity", of course. Cause celebrating diversity isn't divisive, despite the fact that both words have exactly the same linguistic root and meaning... maintaining the unity we were doing just great with - THAT'S "divisive".

If you want to look for a source of never-ending, stomach churning change, look to the Left, not us.

That was from a real Desiderata spoof, it was played on the radio all the darned time when I was younger. Almost as overplayed as the original.

[Neets]

Well it's a good one for sure..and quite appropriate for this thread.

[JoJo Gunn]

I was just looking for that.

---

You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.....
Deteriorata! Deteriorata!

Go placidly
Amid the noise and waste.
And remember what comfort there may be
In owning a piece thereof.

Avoid quiet and passive persons
Unless you are in need of sleep.

Ro-tate your tires.
Speak glowingly of those greater than yourself
And heed well their advice,
Even though they be turkeys.

Know what to kiss.....and when!
Consider that two wrongs never make a right
But that THREE.........do.

Wherever possible, put people on hold.

Be comforted that in the face of all aridity and disillusionment
And despite the changing fortunes of time,
There is always a big future in computer main-te-nance.

Chorus
You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back.

Remember the Pueblo.

Strive at all times to bend, fold, spindle and mu-ti-late.

Know yourself.
If you need help, call the FBI.

Exercise caution in your daily affairs,
Especially with those persons closest to you.
That lemon on your left, for instance.

Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls
Would scarcely get your feet wet.

Fall not in love therefore;
It will stick to your face.

Gracefully surrender the things of youth:
The birds, clean air, tuna, Taiwan
And let not the sands of time
Get in your lunch.

Hire people with hooks.

For a good time call 606-4311;
Ask for "Ken."

Take heart amid the deepening gloom
That your dog is finally getting enough cheese.

And reflect that whatever misfortune may be your lot
It could only be worse in Milwaukee.

Chorus
You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back.

Therefore, make peace with your god
Whatever you conceive him to be---
Hairy thunderer, or cosmic muffin.

With all its hopes, dreams, promises and urban renewal
The world continues to deteriorate.

GIVE UP!
Reprise
You are a fluke
Of the universe.
You have no right to be here.
And whether you can hear it or not
The universe is laughing behind your back.
