Only Solitaire
... so where were we then - new teeth - that's weird ...
Aha Of course - the Friday Poetry thingy !
Brain-storming habit-forming battle-warning weary
winsome poster spewing spineless pointless posts
all the critics falling over to tell themselves he's boring
and Alf is really not an awful lot of fun.
Well who the hell can he be when Alf has never had V.D.,
and he doesn't even sit on toilet seats?
Court-jesting, never-resting --- he must be very cunning
to assume an air of dignity
and bless us all with his oratory prowess,
his lame-brained antics and his jumping in the air.
and should long be dead with cancer by now .
And every night Alfs act's the same
and so you say
... it must be all a game of chess he's playing ---
" But you're all wrong, you see - it's only solitaire.''

I've read articles that state that black holes are not really celestial vacuum cleaners but I disagree.
Perhaps one day we shall discover we are all simply lost socks vainly searching our partner sock somewhere in the Laundromat of Oblivion down at the Cosmic Cleaners ... well something along those lines.

Why Thank You DS and EO for those kind words.
And I do apologise to those whom find this thread annoying - and to the small children who may have been frigthened away by this thread.
Recently I have came to the conslusion that perhaps we would be better off with such disctractions such as poetry etc especially in the cut and thrust world of IT contracting - dont you think my dears ?
So tomorrow I shall post the Final Friday Poetry Corner - and it will be time for Alfred to go to sleep.
Our revels now are ended.
These our actors,
As I foretold you, were all spirits, and
Are melted into air, into thin air:
Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve,
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
As dreams are made on; and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep.
A demain mes amis ...

As in War Holes - Alfie- Warhol - or was it Black Holes ?
Are you Ready ?
Alfie walking, Alfie tired
Andy take a little snooze
Tie him up when he's fast asleep
Send him on a pleasant cruise
To ponder on a Black Hole
Or Two
When he wakes up on the sea
Be sure to think of me and you
He'll write a wee verse
And he'll become somewhat terse
What a jolly boring thing to do
nice lines Alf

Can light be produced without atoms? If atoms do not exist within a black hole then light it does not contain.
BTW who remarked that Fings aint wot they used to be ?
Be that as it may - its all in the mind - so nothing really mattered anyway.
Perfect.

'Black' because everything includes light.
HTH

... blacks holes really that significant or is it more significant what can become of the fabric of space itself?
A very good question which takes us back a few years on this thread to an earlier discussion - in some ways - regarding is there a significance or point to anything - Black Holes , White Holes . BB King . Matt Busby - CIA - Me and You - Us and Them - for that matter.
Ot is the point of it all that is all pointless ?
You see Classical Western Rationality demands that things must serve some kind of purpose or function - wheras Classical Chinese thought maintains some things exist - just because - and serve no point nor purpose whatsoever except their own existance - perhaps thats why Black and White Holes are there - and perhaps for You and I.
Moreover why is relationship between reality and math so interwoven?
Ah - now this question - is Music to my Ears !
Given that Music and Mathematics can also be said to be interwoven - consider - It don't mean a Thing - if it Aint got Swing ? Because that is - Reality !
OK - Duke - tell them like it is Duke !

Indeed.
And why - for that matter 'White Holes ?''
..if you dont know what a White Hole is (and I mean in the cosmological context - find out !)

unless it's billable
But if thats the case ipso facto it cannot be -as you maintain - pointless.
Yet nevertheless it is still True to say and make a point of saying - it is all pointless.
Oh - I do love a good Paradox !.Last edited by AlfredJPruffock; 21 January 2012, 23:09.
