agrypnotica

on the deep blue nights
you know the ones i mean
velvet pile thick and plush
the ones no matter how
exhausted when eyes close
they flicker and twitch
i can't sleep i’m
burning mind body soul
with the heat of a thousand
suns words rocks through the
window of unconsciousness
wake me readjusting i turn
blankets a straitjacket
gripping me in the twisted
embrace of insomnia in some
halfforgotten dream i remember
you when you when you
but it fades...
there are no more unbroken
nights no failsafes when
the mainframe eventually
surrenders rogue hackers
assassins in camo roam neuron corridors
flipping all the right switches
and there i am
in the clutch of
some halfforgotten dream
i remember you
when you when you
but it fades...

An old man walked into a pub, grabbed a seat at the bar and ordered a double scotch, which the barman promptly served him. After drinking the glass in one shot, he asked for another.
The old man said "How about a little friendly bet, my friend?". The barman agreed and asked what the bet is.
The old man said "I’ll bet you $30 that I can bite my left eye. The barman was puzzled but accept the bet. The old man then removed his glass eye and bit it right before drinking his second glass of scotch in one shot.

A priest walked into a pub and ordered a pint of Guinness. "There you go," said the barman, “but I warn you – we don't tolerate any religious conversation in this pub."
“Far be it from me," replied the priest. "In fact, I’ll bet you a drink that you mention religion before I do." "You're on," said the barman.
The priest sipped his pint, played a couple of songs on the jukebox, went to the loo, came back and flipped his penis out on the bar. "Jesus Christ!" said the barman.

Adam went into a bar. The bartender said , "What'll ya have, fella?"
Adam said, "S-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-scotch n-n-n-n-n-n s-s-s-s-s-soda."

The bartender handed it to Adam, who said, "Th-th-th-th-th-thanks."
The bartender leaned over the counter, motioned to Adam, looked left & right and whispered, "Friend, I know this ain't none of my business, but you know, I used to stutter a whole lot. But my wife found the cure. You interested?"
"Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sure!" said Adam.

"My wife heard about this cure: she performed all kinds of magical, passionate, kinky sex
with me and I was cured right then and there."

How to give your cat a pill
1) Pick cat up and cradle it in the crook of your left arm as if holding a baby. Position right forefinger and thumb on either side of cat's mouth and gently apply pressure to cheeks while holding pill in right hand.
As cat opens mouth, pop pill into mouth. Allow cat to close mouth and swallow.

2) Retrieve pill from floor and cat from behind sofa. Cradle cat in
left arm and repeat process.

3) Retrieve cat from bedroom, and throw soggy pill away.
4) Take new pill from foil wrap, cradle cat in left arm, holding rear
paws tightly with left hand. Force jaws open and push pill to back of mouth with right forefinger. Hold mouth shut for a count of ten.

A shabby-looking man walked into an upscale bar full of businessmen and ordered a Scotch. The bartender looked him over and says, "Sir, I don't believe you can afford the drinks at this establishment. May I ask that you go somewhere else?"
The man shrugged and said, "You're right. I don't have any money on me. But I'll tell you what. I can show you a miracle. If I do, can I have one on the house?"
The bartender sighed & nodded, and the man took a hamster out of the pocket of his overcoat. Before the bartender can tell the man animals aren't allowed, the man leaned down to the hamster and said, "Play."

A man walked into a bar & asked for 40 year old scotch.
The bartender said "I'll see what I can find in back."
he returned a few minutes later with a glass and gave it to the man, who took a sip and said, "I asked for 40 year old scotch. This is only 12 years old."
Impressed, the bartender went into the back once again. He came back with another glass and handed it to the man, who sniffed it and took a sip.
“This isn’t 40 years old either. You've given me 20 year old scotch,” he said.
