Ancient Chinese Torture

A young man was lost wandering in a forest, when he came upon a small house. He knocked on the door and was greeted by an ancient Chinese man with a long, grey beard. "I'm lost," said the man. "Can you put me up for the night?"

"Certainly," the Chinese man said, "but on one condition. If you so much as lay a finger on my daughter, I will inflict upon you the three worst Chinese tortures known to man."

"Ok," said the man, thinking that the daughter must be pretty old as well, and entered the house.

Before dinner, the daughter came down the stairs. She was young,beautiful, and had a fantastic figure. She was obviously attracted to the young man since she couldn't keep her eyes off him during the meal. Remembering the old man's warning, he ignored her and went up to bed alone. But during he night, he could bear it no longer, and sneaked into her room for a night of passion. He was careful to keep everything quiet so the old man wouldn't hear. Near dawn he crept back to his room, exhausted, but happy.

He woke to feel a pressure on his chest. Opening his eyes he saw a large rock on his chest with a note on it that read, "Chinese Torture 1: Large rock on chest." "Well, that's pretty crappy," he thought. "If that's the best the old man can do then I don't have much to worry about." He picked the boulder up, walked over to the window and threw the boulder out. As he did so he noticed another note on it that read: "Chinese Torture 2: Rock tied to left testicle." In a panic he glanced down and saw the rope that was already getting close to the end. Figuring that a few broken bones was better than castration, he jumped out of the window after the boulder. As he plummeted downward he saw a large sign on the ground that read, "Chinese Torture 3: Right testicle tied to bedpost."

All this talk about Eddie who cares about him, now Benny had it tuff, he lived in a shoebox in the middle of the road, had to eat cold gravel for breakfast, while Eddie had a choice between ham or cheese. Benny had been lucky to have to make such a choice. Ok Benny did in all fairness have one good meal in his life, a cold meat pie, but he had to use it to defend himself from Peter Rideouts usual Neal Morse impersonation, trying to make a good Christian out of Benny.Peter turned Benny into a born again christian complete with 2 bellybuttons and everything. Now try and tell this to the young people of today and they won´t believe you.

No clown here either ------------>

I have always thought existentialists, like ELP's Eddie, are extremely depressing. It should be obvious that there is a meaning to human existence, and that meaning is human existence in itself. What puzzles me is Sartre, who claimed that humans were beings 'for themselves', ie. consciousness existing for their own purpose and end (as told in Being and Nothingness, his monumental work), yet in his other works, (especially 'No Exit') he portrays human existence as meaningless and absurd. Why would he write such a depressing story after stumbling upon the meaning of life in his other works? Perhaps he thought that humans were being 'for others', or consciousness solely for the benefit of others. It is no wonder he became depressed with such a destructive and altruistic mentality, a symptom I have seen in many marxists and christians, which deprives them of any sense of ego. It is for that reason that I am not an existentialist: I find they have failed to provide a meaning to human existence. Nonetheless, their philosophy is quite entertaining.

I feel your posterior has had punishment enough, Mr. Garten. A few cracks on the knuckles will control the cracks issuing forth from your grim maw. Perchance the willyslapping has created a simmering beastie within. Tut, tut. Enough, already.

Back to business, ah yes, the stark bleak reality. One must ask;

Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?

Why do they sterilize the needle for lethal injections?

Why does the sun lighten our hair, but darken our skin?

Are there no answers to these profund conundrums? What curious muse is at work here? Why does sense not prevail? Why does Jim Garten offer his behind for punishment? (Perplexed emoticon)
