Socrates was a man of vision.
His teachings prompted mankind to
question the nature, purpose, and properties
of the Universe.
Thank goodness his students Plato and Xenophon
shared his inquisitive philosphical genius.
He had less visionary disciples!
The worst of the lot, Dildonyus, saw the World as
a Dank Jungle...Plunging ever deeper into Darkness!!
We all reach Immortality in our own way....
If you or anyone you know has written a Friday Flash 55
Please come tell The G-Man
I will visit, read, enjoy, comment....Then BOOK!
So from the Dankest Darkest Host from coast to coast..
Have a Kick Ass Week-End!!!

Dildonyus!!??! Puleeze. This is the ultimate groaner, G.
HERE is my 55 for this week.
I love your takes on history. Good stuff, my friend - and thanks, once again, for hosting this. =)
Here's mine, Yup.
And, yes, I got/chuckled at the joke!
i think the 'size' of your philosophy may have scared some people off...
What a deep philosophical post ~
Just wanted to drop by and say Hi as I am busy with my haiku poems ~
Will link up next week ~ Wishing you a great weekend ~
Plunging into something, anyway...quite the philosopher tonight, Mr. G.
I'm playin...on words, and stompin em flat, with a nice gloomy little piece called
Leaves of Absence
Okay, you got me. I laughed out loud!
lmao, how quickly you descend. you crack me up, gman!
It's fun to say "Xenophon" over and over again.
Mostly because it sounds like a Martian overlord who plays the xylophone.
Thanks for another Friday 55.
Mine's here. :)
You are such a rascal, G.
Such a philosphical tease you are. Dildonyus indeed. I'm never first, but I wrote Drinking A Dead Man's Beer for your Friday gig.
A thought provoking and humorous philosophical share tonight, G-Man...I like it! Mine is for the birds: http://bodhirose.wordpress.com/2012/02/23/tame-wild-birds/
Enjoy your weekend! xo
LOL. Yeah, he found himself in a hole 'nuther realm.
Mine is... um... up
I don't know who deserves the bigger eye roll - the x-rated philosopher of your imagining, or that tedious bore, Plato!
I wrote of a philosopher with simpler tastes: Road to Pietown
This is some philosophy I did not know...mine is here...

Perrrleeese G-Man! This is a family blog! It's DIONYSUS, the God of Boozing, Drunken Revelling, Puking on the Pavements, Beating up cops and each other, rippin' the drawers of drunken whores, setting fire to litter bins, throwing empty bottles around, and what was I saying about a family blog?
And sometimes, even honesty may be questioned, let alone the Universe...
Philosophy with fun. I like that.
You'll find mine here.
Oops! And HERE's the link.
Try again! Thanks, Jinksy. Leaving the LINK is a great idea!
I don't want to be immortal life's hard enough as it is sometimes .LOL
Mines' up:
Oh what a night
Have a great weekend :)
Oh very subtle! LOL
Mine's up.
Dildonyus?? Never heard of him. . .
Waaaaaaiiittt a minit. . .
I know a few people who think the world's a dank jungle.....
My old friend Dianne was one of them! She was my 55 inspiration this week.
Interesting class you hold each week ;)
At the Grocer's store
Let us hope we can avoid the Dank Jungle!!! *Grin*

Dildonyus??? I'm not going to say where my mind went with that one. I'm sticking with the dark philosophers this week, though.
A recipe for disaster here.
i was shocked! stunned! speechless! amazed at the serious nature of your post... unheard of! then i continued reading....
i should've known it wasn't so! {giggle}

Gotta love anything that plunges in a dank dark jungle.
Flash 55 - Strange but True

Oh G, you dirty dog!Or perhaps that was just me with my mind running to the gutter.
Nope, lots of others rolling around in here too with me. haha No 55 for you this week my friend, but I am visiting a few of your folks anyway. Have a kick-ass weekend my friend!
