"the line between non-chicken and chicken was a very fuzzy one"

The line between chicken and egg is a fuzzy one. Or of chicken and non-chicken.

As to subreption from the whole, the distinction between chicken, egg and non-chicken should present a good example of subreption. The fact that it doesn't illustrates the pervasive perverseness with which subreption occurs.

The question "Which came first..." is similar to a Koan in its provocative perterbations. Similar to the famous Koan "What did your face look like before you were born?"

The solution is dissolution of the distinct categories with which we are dealing. Even if we are tracing the phylogenetic history of the thing and taxanomically reclassifying it as "not a chicken" at some arbitrary point in the past, the solution still involves a dissolution of both objects into a subsuming whole or "non-chicken, non-egg".

A point I've tried to make endlessly, that all of our concepts are subreptions of the whole which can only be properly understood by dissolving the duality. The duality is merely a tool for contemplation and not an absolute reality. There is no "chicken" and "egg" as such to begin to ask which came first.

People only love you for what they can consume of you.

Aikido makes sense.

The obviously bad blurring of the legs gives it away.

I believe this was one of those films that was complicated because it was truthful, much like Dune, Revolver, Matrix Trilogy, etc..

Blessed are those who find wisdom,
those who gain understanding,
for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold. (Proverbs 3:13-14)

Excellent!

Here is an idea; get rid of marriage as an abstract legal process.

If she was my girlfriend I'd leave her at the nearest node.

Videos like this prompt a kind of depravation-meditation from viewers, which is nice. It shuts up our selfish-minds long enough to reflect on what life would be like without one of our senses.

Now, imagine what life would be like without any senses or even a thought - imagine your death. Lame isn't it? Not much "going on" at that point, eh? Looking from this perspective, what do you want? What do you really want? To see? To hear? To taste? To touch? To smell and think? Does it even matter what it is that you feel, as long as you feel something?

By the way, on this subject I'd recommend "The Master Set Universe" by Maxwell Katz and "The Self-Aware Universe" by Amit Goswami. Also look up John Wheeler's Participatory Anthropic Principle. The observer collapses the wave-function, but "The Observer" as principle is what does this, it is the principle of observation which demands contrasts and renders the universe dualistically. That a thing is not a thing unless it is not something else, can be seen in Leibniz's commentary on Aristotle's Laws of Thought and more readily in Easter Logic with such logicians as Nagarjuna. Thus, in order that awareness-of-being-aware arises, a complete self-referential/self-representational loop would simultaneously require unaware objects and multiple aware objects with an infinitude of gradiant matter permeating between them. This is a tough theory that is not well reflected in much literature, but check out "The Master Set Universe" for an introduction to the idea. It probably parallels religious concepts of a "Self-mortifying" or Self-Limiting God.

But how will they know if the dog suffered from "Anton-Babinski Syndrome" which is common with non-congental and coritical blindness. If such were the case, then the dog would be sufficiently deluded so as to spare himself the suffering he'd endure by being aware of his own deficit. This kind of phenomena falls into the category of conditions known as "Anosognosias" or "lack of awareness of a deficit" and its mechanism is said to be "Confabulation".

1970s, around the time of Provincial Prohibitions in Canada. It would more than likely be the case that Captain Al Cohol was debilitated by consumption of alcohol.

Recently the Toronto Sun reported on a Poll that suggests most Canadians would like alcohol available in convenience stores. So, my cousin a burgeoning convenience store owner started pushing the message "Freedom! Freedom to purchase alcohol at convenience stores".

So, knowing that alcohol has such detrimental effects I sourced out and compiled a list of Canadian, American and International studies on the "outlet-density" of alcohol in relation to violent crime and found that for the last 40 years, repeated studies have confirmed a positive correlation with outlet-density and violence, burglaries and fatalities.

I'm not that good with neural nets, but I would assume not.
