without writing a single word...

i know that i can write the best book you've ever read.

from the very first page to the last.

and it is this very knowledge that maintains my silence.

not even a whisper.

...

this is the power of talent.

oh joy.

this is the power of creativity.

even the mystery itself is mysterious.

even talking about it does not lessen it.

from the very first page to the last.

the most enlightening adventure you've ever imagined.

or lived.

...

self-confidence and truth.

it's a combination greatly feared by liars and cheats.

and cowards.

...

and kings.

...

and lawyers.

I love when procrastinators are faced with justifying their existence,
but they just never get around to it. Zap goes omnipotent bug zapper,
and they are in for a long slow cook on the spit of eternal time.

that's a very strange thing to love.

one would assume that "procrastinators" never feel the need to justify
their existence.

like an ocean.

methinks you missed the gist of yet another $Zero "essay".

my business card has just one word:
$Zero
using extremely plain lettering, too.
right smack in the middle of the card.
no elaborations whatsoever.
no contact info.
no cutesy slogans.
no fancy logos.
i hand them out to whomever i meet.
keeps me very busy.
