So To Speak

September 10, 1998

i just thought I’d let the
average joe know what life is
really all about, and well, in
case, the average joe should also

know when people are lying and
what lies really mean to you
and me and the otherwise
average guy. Go get ready

The average personal problems would
not let the problems in the modern
world occupy their little brain. Well,
those average little problems are more

than a problem, Hell, they are more than
a slew of problems that seem disturbing
to the average joe, without inspection.
Well, the underlying problem with this whole
mess with the problems is more than the
original mess the undoing of this mess of
problems could cause - the real potential
problem is in ignoring the problems,
which seems to be what the average

joe does with daunting problems.
Well, that’s what the average joe does
with as many problems as he can hold
in his grocery basket. Well, you get the idea.

The problem here is that there are
too many problems, and no one is doing
anything about the side problems,
and the problems are just getting worse,

and no one is around to save us from
what we accidentally caused by trying
to do nothing about a non-existent problem.
Well, that’s the problem, as I see it. So we
can instantly become all better again.

Well, the solving of this problem
could be problematic, because no one
might be able to tell that there is

a problem, and no one might be able to
solve said problems that no one
was willing to previously tackle.

Oh, forget it. Maybe there is no
solution to these problems.
I figure that eventually someone
has to come up with an answer,
and then once someone does we can

agree with it and then proceed
to act upon it. That’s just my theory.
Well the current problem
seems to be that no one can come
up with a single solution
for a single problem. Maybe the
average joe needs to be
reminded of the problems.

So you go and get to work on
that, and I’ll attempt my little
speech on solving all of the
problems of the world shortly.
