Thungle: King of the Jungle
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2004/12/king-of-jungle.html
A Jungle of Thought. Sunday, December 12, 2004. King of the Jungle. The Lion came to an ant and said: “Who is the King of the Jungle? 8221; “Why, you, your honor! 8221; the ant replied, while bowing deeply. “Make sure you don’t forget”, the lion said, and walked on. A little later, it spotted a baboon, and asked the same question. Beset by fear, the baboon managed to reply, "Your Honor, my Master, my King! What a great privilege to even talk to you! With that it buried its face in the sand. You Meet the ...

Thungle: Mark Twain
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2004/10/mark-twain.html
A Jungle of Thought. Wednesday, October 06, 2004. When in doubt, tell the truth. France has neither winter nor summer nor morals - apart from these drawbacks it is a fine country. For the majority of us, the past is a regret, the future an experiment. In God We Trust. I don't believe it would sound any better if it were true. Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint. We may not doubt that society in heaven consists mainly of undesirable persons. Man is the only animal that blushes...

Thungle: The Obama Express – and why it cannot be derailed
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2008/06/obama-express-and-why-it-cannot-be.html
A Jungle of Thought. Saturday, June 07, 2008. The Obama Express – and why it cannot be derailed. As a foreigner, I find it interesting how most Americans use labels. The true meaning of terms liberal/conservative and socialism/capitalism does not seem to be clearly understood by the average voter. This perhaps, is one of the major underlying problems the Republicans are facing this election. And the result: their inability to clearly define their target. Even local debates now are often colored by the in...

Thungle: Noah’s Ark
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2004/11/noahs-ark.html
A Jungle of Thought. Saturday, November 13, 2004. In the year 2004, the Lord came unto Noah, who was now living in South Africa, and said, "Once again, the earth has become wicked and over-populated and I see the end of all flesh before me. Build another Ark and save two of every living thing along with a few good humans.". He gave Noah the blueprints, saying, "You have six months to build the Ark before I will start the unending rain for 40 days and 40 nights.". Where is the Ark? When I started gatherin...

Thungle: You Meet the Nicest People in Omaha
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2007/02/you-meet-nicest-people-in-omaha.html
A Jungle of Thought. Tuesday, February 20, 2007. You Meet the Nicest People in Omaha. Omaha must surely rank as one of the safest cities in which to drive a taxi. Most customers are a joy to serve. There are also a few others…. We also serve the unfortunate. A young woman flagged me down. She was going to the Amtrak, and could she sit in the front, please? No problem. I considered myself lucky to have landed a good ride. Until her next question:. 8220;Am I going to die? 911 never seemed so hard to dial&#...

Thungle: No Home, No Hope
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2007/02/no-home-no-hope.html
A Jungle of Thought. Monday, February 19, 2007. No Home, No Hope. God is no real estate agent. If we are really the children of God,. I don't think He would want us to fight over anything. For 2000 years the Jews were sojourners. Never totally welcome wherever they went. Today some of their descendants are bulldozing their Palestinian. Brothers and sisters out of their homes. But the problem is not only confined to the Middle East, it is everywhere. Despite a concerted effort to redistribute. Various lar...

Thungle: Brain Farts and Donkey Bridges
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2004/10/brain-farts-and-donkey-bridges.html
A Jungle of Thought. Friday, October 08, 2004. Brain Farts and Donkey Bridges. A great deal of background understanding is often required to successfully convey the original flavor and meaning of a story from another tribe. Without the vibe. On the other hand, it is the unexpected twists and turns that give most tales their appeal. This much seems to be common across all cultures. It is the capability of the human mind to spot the strange and the unconventional that makes the difference. Simple multiplic...

Thungle: The Fall of Babylon

A Jungle of Thought. Thursday, March 05, 2009. The Fall of Babylon. Give me back the Berlin wall. Give me Stalin and St Paul. I've seen the future, brother:. Arnold Schwarzenegger called it Financial Armageddon. And he is not alone. In describing the current meltdown in apocalyptic. Terms It is quite amazing how many educated men suddenly use biblical imagery. Now that the financial party is over. Is bankrupt; Russia. Seems to be teetering; most oil producing countries. Are in trouble; Eastern Europe.

Thungle: Reluctant Genie
http://thungle.blogspot.com/2004/12/reluctant-genie.html
A Jungle of Thought. Wednesday, December 29, 2004. Is walking along the beach at Knysna. And between the dunes he discovers a Persian lamp. He rubs it, and to his surprise a genie appears. “Your wish is my command, master! 8221; the genie says. The genie shakes his head. “Impossible. Do you know how much concrete is needed for such an affair? And where am I going to get all the steel for the cables? I am not even talking about the millions of lights we will need to illuminate the thing.”. Nothing False A...
