TOM KOERNER: Even my Dad knows how to PYRAMIDROME!

SO my dad read this blog, and being the dad that he is, he had some of his own input. My dad is really cool, so even though he’s not 20something and he’s definitely not unemployed, I still let him write a post. I think it’s pretty good.

A Call to Action- on the Subject of Pyramidroming

Being the father of the Willa I am naturally interested in what she is doing–the not-so-little turd moved to San fransico and (at this point I am not going to use any more capital letters)is doing work and writing into the blogosphere. some of her friends find it fun/theraputic to write about their trials and tribulations in finding a place in the cosmos. self examination is over-rated but brings me to the point of this fog of words–metacognition.

wiki tells us that metacognition is thinking about thinking——kind of like the ant eating his own head. (at one point the willa thought that was a funny image)-i still do.

thinking about thinking actually has purpose. it can prevent one from crumbling under the thought of what awful stuff might happen——-fear is only an acronym for future events that aren’t real-(I kinda made this part up——but whats the difference?) checking into where your brain is taking you now and then is good—it usually requires a short leash given the weirdness of the world.–

so recent college grads–rejoice-

you inherited a bankrupt, corrupt, inept, greedy, cheeto-eating, nascar loving, oops-look-what happened playbook courtesy of the baby-boomers (i am one)—stand up and be proud-you really can be part of the solution-so go forth and blog and blackberry and text and sext and do all that————-then GOYA (get off your ass)-and do something productive–it can and will payoff–no really- it will-I know —the hummingbird that is my mothers spirit told me just last saturday as it paused 4 inches from my nose-true story-

summary-don’t overthink everything all the time–look for what is beautiful and add to it—-

“In this interconnected universe, every improvement we make in our private world improves the world at large for everyone. We all float on the collective level of consciousness of mankind, so that any increment we add comes back to us. We add to our common buoyancy by our efforts to benefit life. It is a scientific fact that what is good for you is good for me.”

yep-I stole the above —so sue me!

In the immortal wordz of FZ-“the crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe”–right on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the above is not intended for any purpose—–none—–well actually it is a little cheerleading for you downtrodden vassar grads who have to face the cold cruel world—–don’t worry-be happy!!

ok— enough——————————-
