    I left the true path of slackdom a while back when I got promoted. Ever since it's been straight downhill in terms of job satisfaction. My job is most appealing when I don't have to do anything work-related.

    Dont' forget to cast your votes in the election this Friday.

    Vote the OSP ticket

    Creepio/gundark for Mayor and vice-mayor !

    This will be the only day where you guys can't slack off. The drunken ticket is gaining power. They seem untouchable by scandal (they are scandal) and the bash ticket has a very popular candidate so cast those votes people...

    If you are truly persevering in slack,
    What is the place of a haughty workload?
    The nerf which has no blue milk will not be purchased,
    Even though equipped with a pleasant-sounding bell.

    No, Boba Jr, not my campaign, but my career. Like presidents and such have other careers too, right? Ronald REagan was an actor first, before he was governor or whatever. I am a slacker first, with aspirations of becoming Mayor. As for my campaign? I have no campaign. My campaign consists fo doing nothing while the rest of the world happens around me.


    The true permanent state of reality is Nirslackna, that which is unfinished, unmade, unconceived, uncreated, unconstructed. Thus, peace, bliss, excellence, perfection and wisdom. The state of freedom from work, the release from work, the workless, the serenity and purity of absolute work-free reality should be the norm, the wonderful, the goal, the real. In short, the end is work that ceases to be. The right path of escape is Nirslackna.

    Night shift checking in!

    I see the philosophy of the slack is at hand. Let me share some kõans(Zen buddist stories) so that we may optain nirslackna.

    Slack is like a man hanging in a tree by his teeth over a precipice. His hands grasp no branch, his feet rest on no limb, and under the tree another person asks him: "Why did C Creepio begin the SWMCMMJ thread?" If the man in the tree does not answer, he fails; and if he does answer, he fails and loses his life. Now what shall he do?

    TarynS of the SWMCMMJ monastery was about to lecture before dinner when she noticed that the bamboo screen, lowered for meditation, had not been rolled up. She pointed to it. Two padawans arose wordlessly from the audience and rolled it up. TarynS, observing the physical moment, said, "The state if the first padawan is good, not that of the second"

    Are you getting the hang of it yet? One more...

    A padawan asked Creepio: "Is there a teaching no master ever taught before?"
    Creepio said: "Yes there is."
    "What is it?" asked the padawan.
    Creepio replied: "It is not mind, it is not the slack, it is not things."

    Here's a brief decription I have of Zen(Slack):
    Zen(Slack) is intellectual quicksand-anarchy, darkness, meaningless, chaos. It is tantalizing and infuriating. And yet it is humorous, refreshing enticing. Zen(Slack) has its own special kind of meaning, brightness and clarity.

    One of the basic tenets of Zen(Slack) is that there is no way to characterize what Zen(Slack) is. Kõans are a central part of Zen(slack) study, verbal though they are. Kõans are supposed to be "triggers" which, though they do not contain enough information in themselves or impart enlightenment, may possibly be sufficient to unlock the mechanisms inside one's mind to lead to enlightenment."

    Chew on that

    Hello everyone...

    Nice thread, Creep. Love the title

    Well... Tater... i guess i should address you as well as Amidala's Suitor and a few other people who've asked about me...

    Uh... I won't be on for a while. I have some serious private issues to sort out. Um... I will be on Thursday of this week... After that, who knows...

    This, BTW, has absolutely NOTHING to do with any hacker. I am merely appearing in this thread to make that clear.

    Slack on everyone... May the slack be with you... !

    Crystena77... Glad to see you are a true slacker

    Good morning everyone. Hey Jedi Soul.

    ***IMPORTANT MESSAGE***

    My computer at home is crashed and I have not got it working yet. It is beginning to look like I have lost a lot of stuff including three scripts I was working on and a ton of audio software and wave files for my bands that I will have to re-download and write new wave files and mp3's for.

    I hope to get it straightened out soon (without paying anyone) but in the meantime, if anyone has sent me email since last Friday morning and I have not replied, well you know why now.

    I probably have lost everyone's email addresses and I don't have ICQ until I can get my computer going again. (I can't get windows to start. Bill Gates must die.) So to RedHot5 and all my other ICQ pals, don't forget me, I'll be back for those late night chats soon. I hope...

    Slack on.

    Well, that's not good news... Yes, let's hang Bill Gates, always a good idea.

    Do you want us to e-mail you so you can have the address again or shall we wait till you've got everything working again ?

    Sorry, H51, no awards, promotions yet. Yes, a slack drama later today. RedHot, glad to see you've taken the night shift. And Sandfarmer--man, that's a big time pisser. I hope all is well.

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH- I don't want to do work.
