Drive thru banking. Another invention yet to find its way to England I love the concept of throwing your stuff in those tubes Watching it go flying back to the control booth I just always thought it was cool Imagine if there was a Heaven What if after judging they put you in the corresponding …
Pre-eminent
Know your enemy. Know his name. Know his family. Know his motives. Know his reasons. Know his strengths. Know his weaknesses. Know his moves before he makes them. Know where to strike. Know you are more important. Strike first.
Silence is golden
No more talk. No more lies. No more shouting. No more whispers. No more chat. No more time. No more noise. Silence beckons. Not the artificial silence of life, but the everlasting calm of unconsciousness. Disembodied emotion. Death of the senses. The deafening embrace of silence is rarely felt.

Hey, I think, therefore you are man.
I think you know the score better than you let on. I think you are the most controlling of all people out of control. I think there isn’t a moment that goes by each day you don’t realize it. I think you relish in it. I think you indulge yourself in it. I think it’s …

Initially there was a hint of it, subtle and subdued, timid to the …
Bolt action, single-, double-action, action, re-action.
The hammer falls forward, applying pressure to the firing pin, which taps the anvil, triggering the primer cap, flash fire burns through the web, gas expands forward, propelling the ogive at 800 feet per second, the grooves spinning it through the throat of the barrel, 5000 revolutions per second, the muzzle pulls back from the …

Dispatching a deluge of despondency.
It is mimicry of self. Replacing yourself with another’s thoughts, motions, mannerisms, feelings, quotes, lies, lives, words, voice… The highest form of flattery?
