1967: TWO LADIES PASS STATUE OF ULYSSES. THEY IGNORE HIM, AND HE, THEM


1967: TWO LADIES PASS STATUE OF ULYSSES. THEY IGNORE HIM, AND HE, THEM

I'll have to take a 4 year course in how to spell "Ulysses!"

I just can’t get that spelling straight – I feel guilty and dumb, worn-out, sleepy and gutless. My revenge is thinking less of "Ulysses" and more of "Useless."

But that's me. When he strung his bow and slaughtered the guys after his wife's ass, it was GREAT! I LOVED it when he shot the arrow through the ten thingamajigs and helter-skelter slaughtered the schmucks, like a lion ravaging a bunch of dumb-ass buffalos!

WOW! That scene was better than Death Wish!

But...getting back to the subject: statues do tend to ignore those who ignore THEM, and even those who unashamedly FIXATE on it.

Even David in Florence shows ABSOLUTELY NOTHING no matter how many oohs aahs float like smoke around him.

Bitter as this indifference is to accept, after seeing a press conference today, I strongly prefer the stone-cold indifference of statues over cocky smirking lies by a decider who has lead by “staying the course” like an cannonball would, hurtling down from the heavens.
