On weirdness and pomegranates

Jump to Comments

Is it my imagination or is world wide weirdness on the rise? I was bumping around the internet when I discovered this headline on a news website: “Unconscious Man Found Lying Dead on the Floor”. I had to wonder how they knew he was unconscious. A couple of days later I was watching TV and saw a toothpaste commercial that featured a dentist named Dr. Fang. Perhaps Dr. Pain wasn’t available.

Along those lines, I’ve come to the conclusion that pomegranates are not a lazy fruit. It takes a certain level of commitment to purchase a pomegranate. It’s not as convenient as siting back and mowing down on an apple. Pomegranates take perseverance, commitment, determination and patience. In the world of self-indulgence and self-gratification, pomegranates are a test of character.

In this brief moment of weirdness, let me offer one more thought. There are two kinds of people on the world: those who think there are two kinds of people in the world and those who don’t.

P.S. I wrote this post while watching TV. Just as I published it this announcement was made: “House Hunters International is going global!” Perhaps its just me, but that not only seems redundant, but I think its saying the same thing.

  • “There are two kinds of people on the world: those who think there are two kinds of people in the world and those who don’t.” Precisely. As for the headline about the unconscious dead man, I’m stunned that no one noticed this error. Doesn’t anyone edit anymore?
