Combatting The Coronavirus!
... and fight it off
with all you've got!
That's Right:
BEER!
And if you're not sure which ones to use
(or chug) here are just a few
luminous suggestions:
.
... although they clearly have their origin
in sin, paganism too -and blaspheme of an
Ostensory of the Catholic Church, in one
obvious clear cut case there- these beers
are, overall, not too bitter at all...
Not filling at all either; just fine - I guess.
This isn't the taste-testing blog here,
but we can share so much - hmm?
We'd even add CORONA here;
but without lime, it may not feel right.
(No, I am not saying that you'd
get both the coronavirus
and lyme disease - NO!)
(Mas agora assim, em segredo,
podém acreditar nisso...)
you can believe the publicity:
- STILL; we will recommend
H20 before anything ~ always!
JUST NOT FROM A SINGLE-USE
PLASTIC BOTTLE - OKAY?
and as for the beer-makers, brewers, breweries and
microbreweries - all:
NOW THAT ~
is a luminous idea!
but prayer will help - A LOT - too!

What's In A Date...?!?
6/6/6 was pretty bad...
7/7/7 was supposed to be GREAT -
until some bozos tried to give it
a spin for the worse
veering back towards the 666
and spoiling it all irremediably
in the sad process...!
And now -
now, we have 8/8/8 here...!
8 - the number of eternity
according to Spaceman Bill LEE anyway!
8 - the number of inspiration
according to, ah, Four-Color Stan LEE!
8 - heck, all it is
is really Cam Neely's number, to ME!
Number 8 is also a restaurant though;
a Worcestershire art community;
un auditeur assidu de Last.FM;
a supplementary sin to the Seven - in San Fran anyway;
an "unique accomodation concept" in KL;
an enemy of Number 1 and Number 2 (who isn't)
in Indian Vedic numerology
and one of three numbers with auspicious meaning
in Chinese numerology, that is!
That's eight of them, I do believe
And as Dick Van Patten used to say so well:
Eight Is Enough!
Em conclusão
o que é que se pode dizer de mais
fora que...
BAH - tudo o que o numero oito é
é um numero como os outros!

The Luminous Disambiguation Song
- nothing less, of course!
AND SO MUCH MORE!
"I am Luminous!
Not The Rasmus!
I am still standing - (yeah!)
Without your understanding - (nay!)
Oww!"
(...)
"I am Luminous!
Luminous!
Not voluminous!
Luminous!
Not voluptuous!
Just luminous!
No, NOT lascivious!
Luminous!
Luminous!
Luminous!"
(ad infinitum)
(fade into disco background)
AND THAT'S A WRAP!
;)
Egad - methinks I've just penned my own brand-new theme song here!

Miscellanious Absurdism Denoted In This World...
I know - sometimes, I have blasted such absurd situations here, and no one has quite known what to do about it...
Denouncing an absurd and aberrant state of affairs is but STEP ONE, of course...
Well, here and today, we shall do so again...
TRY again...
But in a LIGHTER FASHION! :)
As in accordance with the new leitmotif here, the LUMINOUS BLOG aka TLB PRIME has to live up to its name and be both LIGHT-HEARTED as well as a source of possible ENLIGHTENMENT...
No more angry blogs here blasting things (that deserve the rough treatment, sure, but...) - that is what the lambasting blog, lethargic blog, loquacious blog, ludicrous blog, lunacy blog and several other blogs (wait for 'em - you just wait!) are for!
(Luckily, there is no "Lacrimonious Blog"... yet!)
But, for the HERE and the NOW...
Enjoy a more LIGHT approach
(as in lighter - weighing in as a feather not as a ton of bricks!) and a more enlightening and luminescent approach too, one can dare to hope...!
FINALLY... INDEED!!!
Top court rules B.C. can sue tobacco companies
CTV.ca News Staff
In a decision that could lead to cigarette-makers coughing up billions of dollars to pay for sick smokers' health care, the country's top court has ruled that British Columbia can sue the industry.
That was 2 years ago...
Are they coughing it all up yet?
And I would be remiss if I did not underline this bit of absurdism yet again:
I am still pissed off, after all these years, that I cannot find everythign I want at ONE PLACE - this, despite the valiant efforts to make this happen by our good friends Wally (Mart) and Target (uh... Practice?) - to name but two! (sic)
What makes blood boil the most is to see two or three venues, THAT WE KNOW TO BE OWNED BY THE SAME HUGE CONGLOMERATE, have three different prices for the very same damned thing!
Heck, at one place you have to buy SIX of those to get the same unitarian price that you get at the other venue, when purchasing just a single unit!
Sure, the geniuses behind all this have at heart that ALL THREE BRANDS are successful - but when it is the same basic crappy article, isn't a little more cohesion and basic coherence A MUST HERE?!?
Are you with me, people?!?
Ahh, how I miss the times when dime stores really were a dozen - a penny saved was a penny earned - there was a very palpable, apparent and obvious intrinsic LOGIC in the pricing warfare... for any given goods too!
Well, that is about all the sententiousness talk you will get here today, folks! Sorry! Not the thing here, on TLB Prime!
For that kind of stuff, you need to go to the Saudades Blog! ;)
See you there too - in thirty!
(Thirty... seconds or days - your choice, really, not mine!
Depends also on the efficiency of your browser and internet connection!)
:)

Luminous thoughts I found somewhere... And their Luminous addendums...
1. Save the whales. Collect the whole set.
1a. Save the trees. Not when they're down to a pulp now...
2. A day without sunshine is like, night.
2a. Opposites attract though - Night and Day - so, let the sunshine in, eh!
3. On the other hand, you have different fingers.
3a. Use them wisely - remember that it is different strokes for different folks!
4. I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory.
4a. Thank God that I was not on a train of thought there and only on foot - ow, my foot!
5. 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.
5a. The other 57.3 percent mark the spot - usually with chalk all around them.
6. 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.
6a. The one percent left go into politics.
7. I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a parallel universe.
7a. I fear no ticket-tendering officer. Not even a.l.f.y ones.
8. Honk if you love peace and quiet.
8a. Those who really do though, have no D.L. - they're on the D.L.
(Baseball season in-joke - sue me)
9. Remember, half the people you know are below average.
9a. The other half you just don't know them well enough to be able to tell.
10. He who laughs last thinks slowest.
10a. He who laughs best thinks and strikes lowest.
11. Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.
11a. Rage is anger mixed-in with surexcitation, judgementalism and little or no sense of right-and-wrong...
12. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
12a. Too bad that the cheese has mildew on it by then...
13. I drive way too fast to worry about cholesterol.
13a. Eat a lot, drive carelessly, leave a chubby corpse.
14. Support bacteria. They're the only culture some people have.
14a. And some people, like bacteria, spread their opinion like wildfire...
They call that being trendy in certain circles...
15. Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7 of your week.
15a. The winter months are an atrocious way to waste 40% of the year!
16. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.
16a. Elephants, as we all know, are known as the greatest sinners the world has ever known, yes...
17. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.
17a. Chances are though, if it is evitable, you will not deal with vending machines at all...
Three words for you: buy in bulk!
18. Get a new car for your spouse. It'll be a great trade!
18a. Don't except to be in her good graces for years to come after she learns of this though...
19. Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.
19a. By the same token, expect a spontaneous generation of oxymorons to sprout out from your mouth each time you try to gear conversation towards your plans...
20. Always try to be modest, and be proud of it!
20a. Just don't bother to be humble - that's just too humiliating...
21. If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.
21a. Note to self: caring is not the same thing that it used to be in olden days...
22. How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise your hand...
22a. Rumors have it that Pamela Anderson has telekinetic abilities -
since her Baywatch debut in fact...
23. OK, so what's the speed of dark?
23a. Dimwits can figure this one out - come on!
24. How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink?
24a. By the same token, how can you spell-check your messages penned with invisible ink?
25. If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.
25a. Note to self: I can't quite put my finger on what seems to be going so well around here though...?!?
26. When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
26a. It's time to head for that light at the end of the tunnel then...
27. Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
27a. And our forefathers paid off all of our dues in the past - so, no worries! Keep the pace is all we need bother doing - following in another's footsteps!
28. Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.
28a. Enough celluloid has been wasted as it is anyway...
29. If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?
29a. And if G.I. Joe is so professional, where has all of his ammo gone?
Sold - to the Axis of Evil? Say it isn't so, Joe... :(
30. Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
30a. Also, weasels' toupees look more real than a bald eagle's...
31. What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
31a. Note to self: it is a good thing that not everything is cumulative, like air miles...
32. I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.
32a. Alas, I couldn't remain close-minded to everything - lest I wind up voting for the Republicans.
33. Garage guy tells you: I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.
33a. Thank God for those guidance counselor types that He sends our way so that a clear path or alternative starts becoming apparent to us, finally...
Oh, wait - it could be a trick from the other guy...
A louder horn - that little in-joke gave it all away,
you horny loud-mouth evil one you!
Go for a pit stop - NOW!
34. Slow guy asks you: Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?
34a. Best reply: Their own conscience forces them to give you a chance to hazard a guess
and expose them as total and complete phoneys!
35. Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what the hell happened.
35a. Inside every crying baby is an angel wondering why he was cast down to this mudball in the first place!
Blessings!

two for tuesday; rioting rappers are a riot - are they not
Nothing quite like a little rap to vent some built-up frustration and anger - hmm? The lyrics are uttered, not sung, in the form of one long rant and often distasteful diatribe (ok- most times distasteful... especially if it is slim boy shadey or whatever he used to alternatively call himself - Dr. Dre's protégé, the Robin to the "doctor"'s Batman [as they even staged themselves in a video] - yes, Eminem! The mark of a true artist is when he (or she) is able to find inspiration from the most mundane things - take from anywhere and build with it from there... hence the time when he chose his stage name after, evidently, a bout with another uncontrollable urge for M&M's...!?! But I digress).
Eminem may be funny in all of his videos - the songs are just not the same when you just listen to them. Not the same thing with my man... Ludacris!
Fitting that Luminous Luciano would back up Ludacris... in a twisted bit of unlogic and mayhaps even fate, Ludacris is -through his sense of humor, attitude and apparent temper- verily like a colored version of the author of this blog!
He has no patience for any bull$ith (yes - I will run this $tar war$ $ith thing through the mud until it gets so old... so old... that it is older than old?!? *lol*) - judging from his masterpiece (IMHO) "Get Back"... A pleasant song to listen to even without the video (for if Eminem is merely Robin, Ludacris is -again- a colored... Popeye?!? Those arms... he punches through things in the video effortlessly... great method for letting out some steam!). And - Ludacris is NOT full of himself one bit for all that denouncing of bullsith around him... sort of... like ME! If you knew how lesser I feel right this instant, faithful readers, as I type this...! After all, Eminem and Ludacris have much in common with myself - we are all Creative Types! And The Creative Type (also referred to as the creator - but I find it odd because there is only ONE Creator - so I go with my own prefered label here - bite me *lol*) the Creative, thus, is known to go between extremes of superiority complex and thinking that he is the scum of the earth (that is my blessing / curse - yes). This inner conflict occasionates opportunities for him though to create his stories, conversation and anything else he feels the urge to weave, usually a spur of the moment thing - but often the result of much thought, sometimes unconscious planning even... Fits us three to a T... indubitably!
