Circular Logic of the 22nd Century

There's something about films resolving every conflict (both relationships and events) at once that is constantly setting me up for disappointment, I fear. I thoroughly enjoyed Slumdog Millionaire, although a million bucks AND the love of your life, all at once? Overstimulation. And the "it is written" bit is rather circular...considering it WAS written. By this guy:
The Slumdog Millionaire Millionaire

Speaking of circular logic, I've realized mid-conversation a lot lately that I'm trying to convince someone that they can't change someone else...or change someone's outlook...


Should the corporate domination
be baptized by mistake

Or were this pubescent Obama nation
to capsize within her wake

At least we'll have
beans and grass and sex
and some telepathic traits

In his polished accomodations
the sap sighs while he waits.


IN THE FUTURE: there will be no pennies.
Where will they have all gone?

The verdict is still out on telepathy.

I guess to get it to work, one should think about people who are probably thinking about you? As with most things, it's about choosing wisely.

But not knowing til the end!
