Found this post at another site, and dang if under #2, ReFollow, there's a screen shot with my photo on the top row, right after the NBA logo! It's the stupid little profile pic..
Now that's just too coincidental, what are the odds I'd see this post?

This is a religious group I found at Facebook! funny stuff..
Description: Inspired by the attitude of such famous Dudes as Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski, Jeff Spicoli, Lao Tzu, Epicurus, Julia Child, Heraclitus, Kurt Vonnegut and Snoopy, Dudeism is a real religion that implores us all to "just take it easy, man." What could be more spiritual and uplifting than takin 'er easy? The Dude Abides, and so should all of us. At the Church of the Latter-Day Dude.
There's lots more info at the official websites listed below!

[I discovered this wacky group at Facebook, which claims as members Frank Zappa, George Carlin, Pee Wee Herman, David Byrne, many others - and of course they canonized Anna Nicole Smith. EL]

[From the group intro at Facebook]
"We the SUBGENIUSES of the post-human race, in order to preserve life on this planet from immanent destruction, reestablish intelligence, regain SLACK, cast out false prophets, smother forever the fear of fear itself, receive the questionable gifts of the BEFORELIFE and of the SPACE DWELLERS, become as OVERMEN, unmask the CONSPIRACY, grip the reigns of human evolution, control reproduction and mutation, decipher THE CODE, placate the STARK FIST of Removal, achieve TIME CONTROL, see that which must come to pass, become as gods, find the Twins with the Scissors of Sight, avert the RUPTURE of the Equilibrium and secure the financial blessings of JEHOVAH 1 the God of Wrath for ourselves and our descendants, do hereby admit ourselves as such and thus ordain this advertisement of the SUBGENIUS race of Earth."

Yes, YOU can rape your own mind. YOU can finally relax in the safety of your own delusions.
This epipastic for the brains of Epoptics, Beholders, and Initiates, works an authentic magician's spell that will drive OUT the foreign personalities and id-demons. Protected by its own occult roots in the most extreme forms of para- and mech-psychology, it places the reader within a "shell" of Weird Phenomena which Must be used for good And evil.
Its system of Mystik Correspondences has already given SECRET POWER to the Church of the SubGenius - the world's first Industrial Church, the prophesied End Times cult of screamers and laughers, scoffers, blasphemers mockers, sinners, and the last true holymen in America today.
KEEP THIS CHURCH NEAR YOU - in your pocket, your bathroom, your glove compartment. Study it. Memorize it. Find within it a NEW DIRECTION- a NEW WAY - a HIGHER yet LOWER REALITY - just as thousand before you have done!
------------------------------------------------------------------
You were led to us, and we to you, by powers much greater than Man, and yet, seemingly, more random than Fate. But the ways of the great Manip-ulator in Space, Jehovah-1, only appear random. YES! Our paths crossed because it was planned - plotted out aeons ago, by alien minds more bizarre than your wildest nightmares, as part of a "WorkNet:" a cosmic scheme woven into such a complex web that not just human history, but the fabric of cause-and-effect themselves was disrupted. FACE IT - the very fact of your eyes moving across this page at this moment is inevitably and subatomically decreed. You are locked into the machinations of a Cosmic Puppeteer who works your strings so skillfully you never knew they were there.
UNTIL NOW! The Church can't cut your strings - you wouldn't want us to, if you knew what they can mean for you - but we can show you where the strings are attached and how to 'sync up' with the Puppeteer...how to stay one jump ahead of the other puppets by assisting the Puppet Master: by following the Path of Least Resistance.

[Not having seen this yet, I'm trusting the reviews, the subject, and the artistry of these filmmakers, that this is a must-see series - el]
Henry Miller was one of the more misunderstood writers, often censored or banned simply because of the use of profanity. A funny comment he made was "sometimes you just have to blurt out 'Shit!', as nothing else is as appropriate." He used a stream of consciousness technique that let his mind flow from one idea to another with little cohesion other than that it perfectly illustrated how our minds work, while revealing his underlying philosophy, which was a love for humanity, abhorrance of war, strife, and materialism.
My favorite books of his were the trilogy called "The Rosy Crucifixion": Sexus, Plexus, and Nexus. In all of these he has many dinners with a diverse group of friends. He says that he purposely invited about eight people of diverse beliefs and backgrounds, believing their differences would make for interesting debates and conversation.
He says after one of these that "if the world leaders would only get together, have a three hour dinner and share many bottles of wine, they would all agree to disagree, but would emerge as friends after the evening, and all wars could be prevented." He also thinks that the average citizens of each nation never prefer war, but the leaders are able to thrust them into wars without their consent, or use the media to manipulate them into wars for political reasons.
Most of his writing was done after WW1 but before WW2, but I think, along with the Dadaist art movement, that they could all see the potential for another war looming, and were all concerned with its prevention through common sense and comraderie. Too bad we can't seem to make this work in practice, on a large scale.
Miller's best book critically was edited by friend Anais Nin, who took about 2000 pages of outtakes from the pair of Tropic books and created the wonderful short story collection called Black Spring. If Miller's work is new to you, I'd start with this book. The stories "The Tailor Shop", about his dad's shop in the garment district of New York, and "The Angel is My Watermark", about painting a watercolor, are two of the best stories I've ever read. I suppose many writers could benefit from a great editor, as this book illustrates.
