"According to him, unenlightened life is "maya," or illusory, in the sense that what we perceive is only a small fragment of its full reality."

that's exactly why i have a tat of the staff of neptune on my back - it's the mystical symbol for nirvana but can also represent illusory reality! i think it's a really cool symbol: also stands for ideal love, drug addiction, and more!

feel free to read more here!

Unrelated but that pic of buddha always freaks me out, after only eating half a bean a day for 6 months or whatever scary

Become a Perpetual Traveler. Basically its the idea that you earn income without operating in a specific country and constantly travel and thus never have to pay taxes or surrender your personal freedom.

Jake, you'd be better off finding a meth lab in the desert. They're far more prevalent than crackhouses in areas like yours!* (Not that I'd know anything about that...)

You can make some serious make from a meth lab... I know a few vacant industrial complexes we can use.

I mean... DRUGS ARE BAD!

note: I like real hoboes, but I hate \"drag rats\" who have a place to stay but they choose not to shower and to panhandle... And they're mostly assholes. Its like.. either be a bum or dont be a bum.

Hey, I have no job, and someone stole my water so I can't shower until i panhandle enough money so i can get my water back. j/k

Voyd, you amaze me, as usual...

The video game thing is pretty fun, I just hope I won't die on the first level !!!

**Mocassin** · 12-03-2004, 07:50 AM

Space Virgin, I'm doing great...I feel like I can't get any bigger, but I still have 5 weeks to go so I guess I WILL get bigger....

But I guess this is part of the 'Small things' that Jake the Punk doesn't care about....

**AdamTheCultured** · 12-03-2004, 08:07 AM

show us a pic "mother to be Moc"....we are all family here........mind sharing with us any crazy food adictions you have been having...I hear pregnant mothers to be can have crazings for some pretty crazy stuff....(anchovie and ice cream omlette perhaps???)

Seriously though, glad to hear things are going well for you...

**Mocassin** · 12-03-2004, 08:31 AM

Hahah Adam! Yes, I plan on taking a few pics and post them here, but somehow I hate all pics of myself and can't seem to find the time to take a few good ones...And about the crazy cravings, I don't really have them, exept for urges for chocolate, grilledcheese, gummies and pop tarts

doing small things sucks. I like to do big ones.

Sometimes little things make the difference. I belive that.

**joanofarc** · 12-03-2004, 11:05 AM

That's hella interesting... basically set up a business in a tax sheltered country and you are set. Sounds like fun... Although I think I would have to spend more time on land then sea... I don't know how well I would adapt to a water life.

**bellelass** · 12-03-2004, 11:32 AM

right on, joan!

**TheJake** · 12-03-2004, 11:44 AM

Moc ouch. having a kid is not a little thing.

please dont misunderstand me people. Its the little things that dont need to be done. The things that stupid people refuse to see.

**Mocassin** · 12-03-2004, 12:18 PM

Don't worry Jake, I was just kidding...

**TheJake** · 12-03-2004, 12:36 PM

For someone who enjoyed it it would be cheap to go the sailing route and live on your boat and have access to anyplace in the world. Of course you first have to find some kind of business that takes little micromanagement and brings you in a steady income that you can run from a satellite internet connection. Ive pondered this but have yet to come up with anything. Mabye some kind of internet pyramid scheme.

**Somnambulation** · 12-03-2004, 06:35 PM

And there is always drug running. Although risky, it would only a take a few runs with cocaine in your hull before you were set for life on the seas.

**TheJake** · 04-14-2006, 02:21 PM

Some seriously interesting reading here folks. Read and become enlightened with me!

**goyincognito** · 04-14-2006, 02:37 PM

I usually wipe front to back.

Oh, wait. This is the philosophical thread and not the "how do you wipe your ass" thread.

My bad.
