HAPPINESS...

Biblical story has it that Adam and Eve were happy froliking about in Eden,
food at their whim, comfortable climate that didnt require clothes, general
security.

Along came Knowledge or whatever they called it and poof! Happiness was
gone. From then on toil to survive, screwed-up heads, etc.

Sometimes we need to figure out what "IT" is....

How many folks spend their entire lives working for "the Man" (hehe) to
finally come to the conclusion when they are old and decrepit, that the
didn't get the real juice outta Life? Sometimes we are too smart for our
own good.

Granted I have an unfair advantage cause I can actually see simpler
Lifestyles and study it a bit easier than most, and see if they are 'happy"
or not at fully actualizing their intelligence potential. Are they wasting
their God-given brain in just enjoying simpler pleasures such as naping in a
hammock, procreating at whim, eatting, feasting from time to time?

:-)

These folks are perfect hosts for the DNA that they were designed to
pass-on. They arent poisoning themselves with PCB's, carbon monoxide,
asbestos, etc. They are replicating the lifestyle as it has been for
countless generations. In a manner that has been perfected to allow the
replication for countless generations.

:-)

Luddites of the world unite. Throw off the yoke of higher IQ and find
yourself a hotty female (before the Chineese grab them all for their
orbiting Space stations) and enjoy Life in a tropical sub-clime while you
can ease back and let mental stimulation drop down to barely perceptable
levels and relax, relishing the vitamin D factory of your skin doing its
thing.
