Knowledge
Just like a good philosopher knows nothing about philosophy and a good teacher knows nothing about teaching, or even like a good lawyer knows nothing about painting, and a good Alfa Male knows nothing about sex: all of which defeat entirely the purpose of what they are supposed to do, and all being of course independent proof why a banker knows nothing about banking and so many other good things in life, and why the bottomless bottom (of the stock market) is now falling out from underneath all of us. How refreshing, on the other hand, is the knowledge that we are all protected under the Constitution of the United States as one Nation under God, and that all the great politicians in Washington guarantee each one of us with their unconditional commitment that the sun is indeed rising every morning, even though we don’t see it during rainy days; and how heart warming is this unwavering knowledge of being protected every single day (and sometimes even at night) by those elegant black limos carrying these courageous men who bring us all the good news under the vast skies above us, like the Messiahs we have all been waiting for! And if we push ourselves into the freezing waters of the true believers, we can all see the glorious days of happiness, riches and good sex right in front of our sinful eyes that have been blindfolded for so long, to finally applaud the emergence of a better tomorrow for our bank accounts and for the polar bears who are so worried about the melting ice that used to form their blanket for a sleepover into happier days, and also for the black panther, whose ivory teeth are recently so much in demand by our merciless society in which ivory has become even a substitute for the dwindling prices of oil and aluminum, not to speak about those juicy Mc. Donald’s Big Mac burgers…
