A crash course in changing the world.

The Second Bank of Evoke - Where Currency has no Currency

Okay friends and neighbors, we committed a grievous act over at the First Bank of Evoke and started (gasp) sharing jokes, poems, and such without exchanging EVs. To prevent such anarchy from undermining the capitalist principles of said bank, we are opening the Second Bank of Evoke.

Think of it as literary freecycling - so feel free to deposit or drop off your old poems, jokes, artwork, whatever for another agent to come across and take "home" with them. Frankly, you can't swing a cat around the quest description without hitting the phrase creative or does art or something similar (and no, I don't actually swing cats) so step up and leave something on the doorstep. Inspire your fellow agents or make us laugh.

And before anybody gets too in my face about this is off topic, this is the Second Bank of Evoke operating on the gift economy - so give.

Cheers.

My favorite two jokes: How many surrealists does it take to change a light bulb? Two. One to hold the giraffe and one to fill the bathtub with brightly colored machine tools.

and

How many Zen Monks does it take to change a lightbulb? Two. One to change the bulb...

Hahahahahaha!!!

How many Chicago School economists does it take to change a light bulb? None. If the light bulb needed changing, the market would have already done it.

and

How many lawyers does it take to shingle a roof? It depends on how thin you slice them.

How many signs does Ethan need to understand that not everyone is playing the same game he is?

How many days does it take a person to lose hope?

No..I refuse to go dark. The world is too full of dead baby jokes. Jokes are supposed to be funny because they have a kernel of truth to them. I prefer my truth to be positive, silly or at least ironic to the point of toothache. I'm too ready to tell myself the dark jokes in real life. I'm out. Have fun.

@Ethan Walden: hahahahahaha... oh. i love humor that makes people think. perhaps we should be crafting solutions that do not make the World Bank any richer or more powerful. anyways...

so, a Zen Buddhist monk walks up to a hot dog stand. the vendor asks, "what do you want?"

"make me one with everything."

Fourth of July on the Lake

This past weekend was the annual celebration at the lake house in Connecticut. It is amazing that the lake is still so clear and beautiful after all these years. The watershed association has done a wonderful job protecting these waters from the damaging effects of development.The wood grill was finally ready to cook on, so we didn't miss the propane tank fueled grill anymore. The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More

Stinging Nettle

In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future

FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

public servants

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
