Douglas Adams Continuum (DAC)

Blessings unto you all. My name is Joshua. I've been a fan of Douglas Adams for many years and have read all of his books. I'll admit that I am unnerved by some of the things he said but the humor helps me to overlook it.

I hope to make many friends here and possibly some converts as well. I get a feeling that there are many here who are deeply troubled.

Peace be unto you.
Joshua

Ah Ha! I wondered why in the What are you eating right now thread you can't move for loaves and fuck*ng fishes.

Deeply troubled? Nah.

Bitter, perverted, twisted, angry, perverted, cynical, pessimistic and even perverted, maybe...but troubled? Never!

Welcome Son of God.

Have a zilla.

Welcome, have a good time. I am one of the happiest and most untroubled men on earth. I believe in jazz and Bob, Dylan. I believe in science and poetry. Luckily I am still allowed to believe that.

Peace

Thank you. I feel truly blessed. Allow me to bestow God's love unto you all.

No, but I know a parable about a man who did have Hob Nobs.

I love the blond Jesus!

I think this is all getting a bit too Messianic....

Amazing coincidence to find someone else with the blond Jesus avatar.

If it weren't me, I'd think it was a sock-puppet!

Are you worried that too many Messiahs spoil the broth?

Who's got the almighty tong?

Shouldn't that be vanirra?

I think this avatar talk is quite interesting, I mean, how many blond arabs are there? There is this thing with no pigment of course. If - for the sake of the argument - we imagine this Jesus character once existed, he was a palestinian, right, meaning an arab, as there were very few caucasian immigrants in Palestine. There were some Italians, but blond Italians are rare too. A young Bin Laden would probably be more accurate. Or Khomeini, the ayatholla...
But I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder. I guess that book is one of the few to have as much influence in the world as h2g2. But that one has a few bits and pieces about it I try to ignore, much like that other arab book, churan I believe they call it. They wrote lots a couple of thousand years ago, our arab friends, and much like h2g2 there have been sequels written by later authors, book of mormon, for example. Even though I'm an atheist I find religion an interesting topic, the human need for guidance and the perhaps innate hope that life has some sort of meaning. Our good brethren of the Python, Monty society did a thing on the subject too, rather profound and probably very accurate, as religion goes. I think their version is probably more accurate than the original, they explain the blondness very nicely, Brian is probably some sort of explorer, or the son of one, who stayed on, he may have enjoyed the climate, and as luck would have it, all the other Palestinians also spake english.
Good on them. Better be careful, I think I hear the Roman inquisition over yonder.
Peace

Oh, and I just saw Janette's post, messianic, perhaps a bit. But Coltrane already came and went, so that should be a good example of past tense, eh?

You understand that I could have it arranged to have a huge "Smite Me" sign taped to your back, don't you?

I have no pretensions of Messianic ability, I just love the blond Jesus.

It's a living example of how man creates gods in his own image.

Yeah, a jolly good one, with a huge fish, a babelfish, oh, ye confused men and women of the earth, hear mine words, for it is I, it is I who cometh to do thine laundry, it is, furthermore, I who shall free thy sheep, and kitten, oh, robot lord of Tokyo, I shall purchase cat food. I shall invest mine sterling pounds in the finest of cat food containers, filled to the utter limits with cat food so fine its name shall be 'overjoy cat delight'. I shall go over and beyond the call of duty to see to it that thy duckling quacket peacefully, thus reembellishing fond memories of an more egglike state. The state of New Yolk. As it were. Hear these words, for they are spoken from the inmost of the utmost divinity. There shall be a new party. There shall be a jazz party, so it has been written. Oh most pompous and holy lord Charlie P, we hear thine sax, let thy blue note shimmer, much like the golden tone of ye good very old whisky. Furthermore, let ye olde milche be disposed of afore it wandereth in the night on tiny greenish hairy feet, like the sour prophet it is, so be it. Or my name is not Brian. Or this beer I just devoureth wast not goode.
The ancient prophesy is fulfilled, ye holy Jazz party is on its way.
For he cometh, he speaketh, he drinketh coffee, much like the brethren in the order of the railroadworkers tend to do. Now and then. Mostly then. Sometimes now. Every then has got to sometimes be now. Each of the nows we know of has sometimes got to be a then, or was once a vague idea hinting at a then. Or something very similar to the then, the archetypical then which is nothing more than a constipated look at reality from the view of imagination. Imagination is also truth. Somewhere, for some entity, man, woman, cat, dog, a wide variety of choices presents itself. Like an vaudeville theatre company. Oh, Parker, blow your horn, that the walls of sin falleth to the ground, and may be reprocessed and utilized in production of new concrete structures, bridges and stuff. For it is time. It is truly the time, time to fry some pancakes, in joy and awe of the great Parker. The 251 has come to blow the changes. A small step for John Coltrane, a Giant Step for the world...
Peace
