Read No Evil

[Bill Floyd]

Don't tell me your story, I don't want to know.  Sew up my mouth so I can keep all these secrets.

 

If we don't talk about these things, they will not exist.  None of our lies bigotries passions desires beliefs thoughts jokes mistakes inner irreplaceable lives will ever be shared.

 

Plug up my ears and gouge out my eyes.  I like it better here in the dark.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

***Hey gang.  This here is Banned Books Week in the good old land of the free and the brave.  I encourage everyone to participate in some way, maybe by visiting the linked website and making a YouTube video, maybe by posting a story on 6S about your favorite Twain, Vonnegut, Joyce, Blume, etc. work.  There are few things more insidious and contrary to the spirit of the American experiment than the banning of books.  Let 'em hear ya.  

[Jamie Hogan]

Oh sweet Father, please let me get a book banned at some point.

 

You know you nailed it with "If we don't talk about these things, they will not exist." And you also know that those words extend far beyond banned books.

[Michael Brown]

Banned Books Week - There you go. Has banning ever really stopped the dissemination of the work under scrutiny? Or does it just increase sales? I know it still occurs, but it sounds silly.

You and me both, Bill. Illumination is over-rated.

[Edward Dean]

This 6 says it all Bill. Thanks for the flag!

Thanks for calling it to my attention.

worker bees are better blind, deaf, and mute.   :( 

[Mike Handley]

Thanks for the heads-up, Bill. You just pressed one of my (count-them-on-one-hand) hot buttons.

Eat More Kindles. It was the Russian trawler, compromised by Danny and Donny (Lapham's damn dolphins) who jammed your internet link, Bill.   

[Bill Floyd]

I think I added a bum link again, damn it.  I always get these "local server unavailable" messages when I try this.  I'll try to fix it, but in the meantime interested readers should use that Google thing-y.
