Gumbud Leisurely Scribbles (part 3)

G4

insanity comes in many forms:

like the insanity of the aged who believe their former years were always better and there is nothing good ahead?

the insanity of the regular drinker who believes the next drink will fix all his problems

the insanity of those who believe that there will eventually be peace on earth - really ? - not in our days

the insanity of the young - everything is simple just keep sniffing and dancing

the insanity of the politicians, who try to convince us to become insane like them

the insanity of the church who tries to convince us they know the way

Need I go on??

Sometimes I’m on the edge of despair about how humanity turned out Gumbud, everyone seems to be all out for what they can get for themselves these days, the evil greed has us all in it’s grip, and greed begets more greed all down the line. Surely this is not what the creator intended when we were given free will? But we plough on in the hope that someday we will all become good neighbours and live in peace with one another, otherwise he might get cheesed off and blow us all away and put humans down as a bad mistake in the great plan.

Yes, we will all be blown away if the great plan is the F Plan.

“The F-plan is a high fibre diet designed to induce healthy weight loss, created in the 1980s by British author Audrey Eyton, founder of Slimming Magazine, and based on the work of Denis Burkitt. The F-Plan diet book was in the top ten best selling books in America in April and May 1983.[1] The diet works by restricting the daily intake of calories to less than 1,500 whilst consuming well-above the recommended level of dietary fibre. The fibre has a number of beneficial effects, such as making the dieter feel “full” for much longer than normal, reducing the urge to overeat, and promoting a healthy digestive system” Wiki.

So thats the F-Plan, I wonder how many suckers bought into that one, Mr. Audrey Eyton was on a winner there back in 1980, but I think the punters are a lot wiser these days, they go for the new improved G-Plan.:wink:
I always thought the F-Plan, or Fallout Plan, was a diagram of simple instructions for building a nuclear shelter in the case of all out nuclear war. They used to show the kids how to do this back in the 60’s on Blue Peter, if I remember correctly, you take two large blankets, one off mummy’s bed and one off daddy’s, get a pot of glue from the garden shed, glue the two blankets together and wait for the glue to dry. In the meantime take Grandads shovel and dig a large hole in the back garden, preferably near a stone wall. When you hear the siren jump into the hole, roll yourself up in the huge blanket and don’t come out until the all clear. Ah yes Blue Peter never let you down, they had a way out of every situation.:slight_smile:

Did 60s Blue Peter advocate Mom and Dad having separate beds, no wonder there was so much Fall Out, and us kids were left with a quilt complex.

:lol: Quilt complex

Yes Blue Peter alway stressed the fact that there was a “Mummy’s bed” and a “Daddy’s bed”, you just weren’t paying attention back then.:smiley:

Did Dad get a badge for not Brooching the subject.

Quilts,quiet! Quit quoting QWERTY, Quango


As you , dear reader have observed it is about 2 AM greenwich mean time & I am typing garbage.I’m all bunged up with a thick chest and running nose, dripping too. Can’t sleep. I.m catching up with odd jobs.
No, not ODDJOB the bowler hatted oriental, corpulent gent in GOLDFINGER.
more later
possibly zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

No,he got a “Not in front of the children!”
Or was that Paul Daneman,from Wendy Craig?


who never ‘did it’ for me-unlike Dianna Rigg
phwoooar!

welll what have we started now FGS = glad we’ve got old spittie on board - he’s a bit like a true north compass - j ust when we start running off track he reminds us of the way to go.

but do not despair I have come up with the Good balance evil spirit level.

there is as much good on the planeet as evil - we just need to keep track of it - remember blessed are the meek cos they will inherit the Kingdom of God!!

I believe that for every evil act there is an opposite good act somewhere else on the planet - if we counted them all up we would get an equal ledger.

What is all this chit chat about?
Well another bit of useless information. I had a sister in the wrens and she was excused gaters. So there.

Just a bit of scribbling about whatever’s in your mind at the time Emjay, nothing serious.:slight_smile:
Why was your sister excused gaters? Did you know that early in the last century some of the mountain girls of Kerry got special dispensation from the pope to wear the fat part of their legs below their knees?:slight_smile:

Used to suffer from heavy periods. So was told no need to wear boots and gaters. :lol:

That’s fair enough, I was just curious.

I used to watch Magpie, made me think of Birds, One for sorrow, two for Joy, back in 73, I would think, sometime in the future, I will be able to find out what seven is all about using the freedom of information act, but as this was not introduced till 98, I lost the urge to know, Eight for a Wish, Nine for a Kiss, Ten for a Bird you must not Miss, Jenny Hanley I bet.

Didn’t think you’d miss out when a bird came along Spitty, As Shakespeare said a bird by any other name is still a bird.
Nice girl Jenny, not like the Jennie Hanley I knew from Ballyfermot, I knew all the Hanleys well, they were a family of carpenters including the mother, Jenny was a fine strappin’ woman with a head on her like a clawhammer, she used to pull the old nails out of wood with her teeth and hammer new ones in with her head, all the lads were terrified of her, the result was she never got married, she was left on the shelf so to speak.:lol::lol:

Just an errant thought
no doubt it’ll be shot down-but,surely,by definition,God has to be atheist? I mean,unless there’s a mum & dad God,who think he’s in his room playing with the ‘Build your own universe’ kit he got for his 50,000,000th birthday? 
 or summink?

That requires a lot of pondering Pug, I’ll seek guidance from yonder port bottle in the search for an answer and let you know as soon as it dawns on me, then I shall cry out in joy, Hallelujah there’s a light up above, we’re all saved! :slight_smile:


at which point you’ll leap up filled with enlightening realisation,trip over the dog,do a perfect faceplant into the souffle’,kick the cat accidentally as you attempt verticality
and forget the lot,as you mutter “Ohhh,God” while Mrs Jem delivers a stinging rebuke/chastisement
ammirite?

:lol::lol: How’d you guess?

I was thinking about it Pug and all I can come up with is that God’s Daddy was always there and we can’t understand ‘Always there’ and never will unless we develop much bigger heads with more Ram installed, or maybe the new white elephant HCF will find the answer, it’s been up and running for a few years now and all we got out of it is a few new words nobody understands, same thing as ‘Always there’ I suppose, we’re still in the dark.:confused:
