Italian composer Gioachino Rossini (1792-1868) didn't like to work hard, and yet he was also prolific. In fact, his desire to avoid strenuous exertion was an important factor in his abundant output. He got things done fast. His most famous opera, The Barber of Seville, took him just 13 days to finish. Another trick he relied on to reduce his workload was plagiarizing himself. He sometimes recycled passages from his earlier works for use in new compositions. Feeling good was another key element in his approach to discipline. If given a choice, he would tap into his creative energy while lounging in bed or hanging out with his buddies. In the coming weeks, Sagittarius, I recommend you consider strategies like his.
"Looney Tunes", huh? Maybe I ought to find some cartoons to watch.

At least he's constructed better than Snoopy's doghouse.
The Paradigm Shift Of The Century?
May. 13th, 2013 04:32 pmAll I wonder about this is if the rest of the "funny animal" cartoon franchises will follow suit...and what it means if/when they do.
What happens when Felix de-Cats and Mickey de-Mouses? Will the Tunes stay Looney with Bugs, Porky, Daffy, Wiley E., and Speedy as shaved apes? Does Darkwing need to be a Duck to Get Dangerous?
What are your thoughts?

Jun. 25th, 2012 06:48 pmWell, it was all that I could do to keep from blogging,
Sometimes it seems so pointless to explain.
But you don't have to call me "sbierce"...spammer...
You Never Even Called Me By My Name!
You don't have to call me "Suzanne Barker"
And you don't have to call me "Israel Khang"
And you don't have to call me "Ell Eff And Ay" anymore
Even though you say you're with my gang.
I'll stay online as long as Hotmail'll let me,
And I never minded much more of the same...
But you don't have to call me "sbierce"...spammer...
You Never Even Called Me By My Name!
I get spam from that Ace Hardware down in Phoenix
And ads from used car dealers in Portuguese
And crap about huge fortunes out in Nigeria
How did I wind up on mailing lists like these?
Chinese whores who want to emigrate Stateside
And housewives who all think married life is lame
They all don't have to call me "sbierce"--those spammers
You Never Even Called Me By My Name!
There may be more to this filk, but I need to do a little more research. Heh.
The Universe--some information to help you live in it.
[SNIP!--for brevity]
4 POPULATION: None
It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination.
