Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for July 25, 2013

“When you talk, I just think about hiking in the mountains until the noise stops.”

It’s better to be silent and thought a fool than to speak and prove it…

You mean like Quiet is Vice, and Smart is Versa?

When you hear yourself talk, does it make sense to you?

I told y’all I would be back now, here I am.

@The NihilistWhen you hear yourself talk, does it make sense to you?Is it supposed to?

Danae’s just made a judgement based on her own standards and not the standards of the one being judged..Being judgemental is not very Zen, young lady. And I can hear your mind-buzz all the way over here.

Silence may be golden, but golden oldies aren’t silent.

Half of communication is listening. Since I am generous, I give that half to you entirely. I do not hear my words. They are meant for those of lesser intellect.I would like a Danae in a swing Christmas ornament, please, with “Shut up on Earth” stamped on the back.

What Brass Orchid Just Said.

Christmas ornament, please (and maybe Cap’n Eddie on his diner stool?)

Of course I talk to myself. Sometimes I need the advice of an expert.

Operative word: ‘Was’

should say verse vise-a

hey you guys have a marketing plan for comic strip ornaments?? Let me know ok!

The reason a dog has so many friends… He wags his tail instead of his tongue.

Am I the only one wondering how the heck Danae got up in her little perch? There’s no ladder…. And that tree has a long and wide (compared to her little self) trunk so climbing is unlikely. And where did her perch come from?

Guess I’m the only engineer in this bunch, huh?

If it is silence we need then that is good; but silence can be complacent when there is a need to speak up about a disparity…like any inequality or in balance. Don’t just watch a neighbor’s house burn; so something instead of using his suffering to warm your hands. ……

We have two ears and only one mouth. There’s a reason for that.

and Cap’n Eddie’s cat for the tree topper!

Out walking the track the other morning, a gal fell in behind me, with her cell phoneI…I did twelve laps and she the same, and not one bit of silence did I have, yada yada yada, nothing said, but i guess she needed mouth exercise, I figured.

BrassOrchid, you’re right. We can’t learn anything by talking. How you know what you’re like is a matter of listening to loved ones, and others tell us. You either agree with them or not, but their opinions form our character and personalities….But you have to pay attention and that can only be done by listening…..

Silence is golden. So make yourself rich by shutting your pie hole.

That “Harry” joke only works in the Midwest where they misprounce it as Hairy.

89% of statistics posted on the internet are made up.

Have any point validators commented today?

I didn’t think so.

I don’t think I can handle this any longer…..because in Danae’s world…..as a person speaks all of their “intelligence” is released into the air…therefore leaving nothing inside their brains but a vacuum? Could this be what she is not saying? Do I actually UNDERSTAND Danae? I hope not!

Hey, you can look it up. It’s under “hypothetical unknown dimensions.”

Much like “Fire bad. Tree good.” Buffy the Vampire Slayer saying. (after blowing up the school)

Speaking of “can never shut up” and “speak and remove all doubt”…look in a mirror.
