本文: Kago-san,
Things have been hard lately, but it will be alright. You are a great singer and we hope to hear you sing again soon. There's other groups out there. Like ours. We are not so cute, so you would make up the difference.
You can smoke and hold hands with whoever you want.
We are prepared to offer you cake.
Please consider it.
Thank you.
-Hakujin
加護さん、

喫煙と岡惚れはＯＫです。
ケキがもっています。
ほしいんですが。
どもぴょん。
- 拍人

[he begins with the conventional explanation]
The famous Four Noble Truths of Buddhism are often translated as 1) All life is suffering 2) The cause of suffering is desire 3) By cutting off desire we can cut off suffering and 4) To cut off desire, we must follow the Noble Eightfold Path which is Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Awareness, Right Concentration, Right Thought and Right Understanding. Buddha was an eminently practical guy and his philosophy is never unrealistic, but this version of the Noble Truths strikes me as both impractical and completely out of touch with reality. It asks us to do the impossible, to cut off all desire. It can never be done. You’ll always desire something. If you lost your desire to eat, drink and breathe you’d die. The other desires are just as difficult to tame.
There is, however, a different way of looking at the Four Noble Truths. The first refers to the idealistic outlook. When looked at in terms of ideals, all life is unsatisfactory since it can never possibly hope to match up to what we’d like it to be. The second noble truth refers to the materialistic outlook. Even though most of us are familiar with the “cause of suffering is desire” version, another way of translating the second noble truth is, “the truth of accumulation” (shu, the Chinese word for “accumulation” is the one often translated as “desire”). From the materialistic outlook, all things are an accumulation of smaller particles. And, also from the materialistic point of view, the way to happiness is to accumulate as much stuff as possible. He who dies with the most toys wins, right? But neither of these outlooks can ever lead to happiness or balance. The third noble truth refers to action in the present moment. In real action our idealistic or spiritual side and our physical, material side are fused into one. The fourth truth is the Buddhist Way in which we actualize the other three and live life according to the Rule of the Universe. In other words, we act from intuition and take right action at every moment.

I'm at some party at the big house. Suddenly 2 of the guests take everybody hostage and start getting them together in a back room. I sneak away. There's a pile of razor blades on a table. I take one for each hand to slice their faces when they get close, even tho they have guns.
I run out the front door and around the back. For some reason they forget everybody else and start chasing me, yelling "SKINHEAD!" There's a school in back of the house, the kids are having recess. I figure they will not chase me, guns blazing, into a crowd of schoolkids. I am wrong.
As the kids start pelting me with small stones from their many slingshots, I figure this is a good thing as it will stop my pursuers, even tho it isn't stopping me. (But I am more determined, you see.) I am hurt; the schoolkids somehow are not.
[scene missing]
Inside the school; another party. For close combat, we have both switched weapons to long pointy metal rebars.
[scene missing]
The spirit of the children's party overwhelming them, the goons relax and we all decide not to kill each other. "I was going to stab you in the brain!", says Head Goon. We all have a hearty laugh.
The End.
