A prairie dog that was living peacefully in his hole
once dreamed he was a man. He was amazed
at all he found he knew ... cell phones, internet,
how to drive a car, two legged babes he once knew.

When he awoke he was confused. Am I me? Or
am I this fool babbling at a screen?
All the prairie dogs calmed him down and agreed ...
Don't put on airs and call yerself Mr. Chwang Tsu.
Yer still just a dog and a yer still Mr. Fool.

Mr. Fool prairie dog went back to sleep with his
eyes wide open and felt much more real.

 All you have to do is wake up from the dream - it's
 that simple. When you wake up to Reality, you'll
 find there's no future, past, or present - time
 doesn't exist.

 A guy once dreamed he was a butterfly. When he woke
 up he realized he was a man. But, was he a man that
 was dreaming he was a butterfly, or a butterfly
 dreaming that he was a man?

  So, the cities are broke; the country is broke;
  and we're just sitting around watching TV, doing
  next to nothing, apparently. The big question
  now is what comes next: a sudden crash, or a slow
  decline.
 
  One constant is change - we could shrink the size
  of government and bring the troops home. We could
  be creative again, in order to deal with the danger
  that lies ahead.
 
  But, the old crowd and most of the new crowd are
  just sitting there, watching TV and following
  Breaking Bad, one of the most depressing shows to
  come down the pike in a long time!
 
  We're now fascinated with the lives of criminals.
  Check out some of the lyrics on new popular music.
 
  How can we survive the future?
 
  My nature is pessimistic. I look on a world
  burdened by debt and faced by a fanatical enemy
  that has nuclear weapons, and I find it hard to see
  how we can avoid what at best would be a very hard
  time.
