Deep Thoughts: Shattuck Speaks again

SEX!!!

Great. Now that I have your attention...

Sometimes your morning starts out with an unexpected and incredibly deep intellectual conversation. Don't get confused by my word choice above.

So this was one of those mornings.

Gym Dude runs through the door asking for paper and pen (uh, sir? have a free weight instead!)

Obviously - J-fizz and Ma-Deets and I are like "okay Gym Dude, what's the sitch?" And so unfolds Gym Dude's senior thesis-slash-Nobel-Peace-Prize-Award idea...He prefaced with: "CE-yo!, you are not yet at that age, but when your friends start getting divorced and start having affairs..."

Yowza.

And then the conversation got really tangled in a battle of the sexes type way...so we won't got there. But you're right. We cubies are not at that age. Where careers, children and Real Life get in the way of the slam-dance and a little romance (ah, to be a twenty-something). So whether it's the idea that 'man must procreate!' or 'women become martyrs' or whatever, it all comes down to VALUE.

If you don't have values or if you don't know what it is you value, then that's gonna present a problem from the get-go (and 'get-go' is definitely the age we are at).

But what pisses me off about this stupid society is how repressed everyone is. Democrat, Republicans, Tea Party Poopers. Seriously. Some of us are cubing away, every day. We are only worth 17cents an hour...Go ahead and preach 'life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness'. Tailor those amendments, bills, and laws to the Bible and the Commandments It's all about the American Dream with that big house, white picket fence, kids playing in the yard - all uptight and putting on a face. But is there anything there that says "thou shall not covet a piece of ass"? I'm going to go out on an extremely capitalistic limb here: Democrats want to share the wealth...the GOP wants the wealth. Ergo. Legalize prostitution. Everybody wins!

ps...UFOs OVER CHINA!!! get those commies.
