Could
this be monday? Oh, it feels like monday, smells like
monday and tastes like monday, but does this all make it
am monday? Sure, today is one of the possible seven days,
which a week consits of. But how should I decide, which
one it is. Ok, first clue is, that I wasn´t at work
yesterday. This makes yesterday a potentional sunday, but
again, sometimes I go to work on sundays and stay at home
on other days, so yesterday could be any other day, too.
Looking out of my window, I can see that it´s bright day.
Must be about high noon or so. Taking a look at my phone,
I read the actual date: MO 23.NOV 98. But what does this
code mean? At first look I would think it tries to
convince me that it is monday the 23 of november. But
thinking it over again, I´m not willing to trust this,
because it´s a phone, not a clock. Without any proof I´ll
go on ignoring the phone, which is getting even harder,
as it begins to ring... ring... ring... I pick the
receiver up, say "wrong number" and put it back
on the hook again. You see, it still could sunday and I
never answer the phone on sundays at work. Thinking again
about this monday-question again I realize, that it´s is
in fact of no importance. Who cares if it´s monday,
tuesday or doomsday? See, it´s really of no importance.
So I go on thinking about the other thing: Should I trust
my phone? I give it a chance and pick it up, after it
rang now for about one minute. I say "Jep" and
the guy an the other line starts bubbling. He´s telling
me something about who long he is trying to contact me
and that he always got connected to a wrong number and
that our telephone-system must be defective and so on...
Ah, defective, didn´t I mention that I´m not going to
trust this phone-thingy? After some minutes or so I stop
him by asking, what day today is? He tells me, that it´s
probably monday. I tell him, that I´m not allowed to
answer phone calls on mondays ´cause of my contract and
put the receiver back on the hook again. So it really
could be monday? But didn´t the guy say probably? So I´m
back at the beginning. And even worse, now I know, that
the phone is unreliable ´cause it has other malfunctions,
too, such as connecting to wrong numbers. Just thinking
about it, it rings again. I pick up and do the "wrong
number" again. After all, another question comes to
my mind? Let´s say it is monday and I´m not at home
sleeping, eating Pizza or watching TV, than what the heck
am I doing here? I remember the "w"-word,
something ending on "ork".... But right from
the beginning I don´t like this concept. There must be
other ways. More enjoable, too. I start thinking, but
nothing appears in my mind. It´s empty to the bone.
Talking about bones is no fn at all, but it´s still
better than talking about cooties? The major question is:
Do girls have cooties? Well, ´till today I don´t no. Or,
to make it more precise, I don´t even know what cooties
are after all. My only information about this is from
dexters labority, a cartoon-series I like to watch. In
fact, a very good cartoon about a boy genius at the age
of 6 or 8 or so, who has his own scientific lab and s
always disturbed by his elder sister, who as the only
person shares the secret of his secret lab with him. Well,
his parents are unaware of it all the time. Well, and
once he enters the room of his sisters to get his uranium
back she had stolen before and is attacked by little, fly-like
insects he calls cooties. So, if these are the cooties,
girls should have or not, well, than I don´t know. Do
this cooties exist for real? Or are they just an
invention of dexters strange mind? Well, I never saw some
of these little insects for real, even when I searched my
sisters room for them. This only lead to the one possible
fact, that girls hide their cooties from us. But why?
what´s so important about these little insects? Do they
taste that good and make a nice meal for dinner? Or do
they give wisdom? If so, it seems to fail for blondes.
And didn´t you realize, that girls always go to the
toilette in groups? Mayby this is ´cause they share
their cooties with each other or trade them? I don´t
know but think it over again this would be a very good
answer to the question, why girls always go to the
toitlette in groups... Enough about cooties, there are
much more important thoughts that I have for now? If the
answer to it all is 42, than what´s the question? Í was
told, that the original question was: What is six by
eight? But this was calculated on an pentium-prozessor (dodidodip)
and therefore the answer is wrong. But if 42 is not the
answer, what does it mean to us? Now, lets have
an example: If you ask your sister, how far it is the
Birmingham and she tells you: 42 and you think: "Well,
42 kilometers, and I have enough gasoline left for about
45 kilometers, so it fits". But we know, that the
right answer is 48 (6*8). So the wrong calculation leads
to a lack of gasoline and you will have to run the left 3
kilometers by foot or to hitchike and be killed by a mad
psycho who just fleed from the prison. You see, 42 is the
direct road into death and as a priest of the big, golden,
allkeeping closet-bowl I tell you, don´t use pentium-prozessors(dodidodip)
to calculate the meaning of life... It will fail.
