So when two mules are staring face to face but cannot see beyond the copula which seperates them we have a funny situation in the barnyard. I am sure Neitzsche has said such a thing but it would not be the first time he has repeated the words of Shopenhauer. For Neitzsche has already commited himself to the abyss of "ironic recurrance" so there is very little we can actually take from him without dragging along an entire dusty book shelf of scrambled ontology. Since we have that book shelf here with us, I can surely poke around and search out the differences (and similarities) between the meta-physical and the dialectal-physical. Both the Pretzel and the Wenk are pretending not to see/hear the other's side, this is funny because by shear denial they are effectivly acknowleging the others position. There are certain definitions of the word "meta" vs "physical" that could easily show the semantical differences of identity(beyond) but I will assume that we are not sollipsistic semanic-rabbits talking with one another about who is more freer then whom all from within our own cages, so I shall avoid this discussion of the dreaded logos (but realize this is a "loss of dialog" that has been insisted by both Pretzel and Wenk by merely agreeing to disagree). The mirror is not a bad analogy for diplomacy sake and I will use the "twin cobra" technique that is currently popular in the steppe of Eastern Pakistan. Behind the chicken shack are two twin cobra. They find a chicken egg and out of compromize agree to eat only half each. The first cobra shuts its eyes while the second eats its portion, when finished it closes its eyes and lets the first eat its portion. When all eyes are open again the twin cobras find that still half an egg remains. The reason for this is simply that there is only one cobra who can only see itself as half. So out of this confusion the cobra reckons to eat its other self. But this is impossible without first realizing the other's "hunger of the mirror." If you cannot see the other half of yourself perhaps you wll be as hungry as the twin cobra? I hope you are able to understand the twin cobras. I would not recommend eating twinkies, they are very poisonous, more then a cobra's bite. Breathing exercises are highly recommended and so is the unfolding of the spine. g'luck jumpers! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
