: Well, this week was a pause-week for The National Poem of Nothingness. I have received, so to say, nothing. Anyway, one can look upon it as a sort of contribution!

: I decided to creat an office, which will souly concern with the matters of Nothingness. Here I shall collect everything which has anything to do with the absence of things.

: You are welcome to give me any tips on how nothingness shall be conquered. Yet, while the emptyness is ruling, we have to please it in some way or another. As one such thing I prepared a tribute to the perfect Nothingness.

: Absently yous,

: Ex uihilo kvedam fit

: PS.: Oh, and don't forget about the Poem - its prophecy is still waiting to be fullfilled!

Well.
Thinking about nothing is a blessing. But also a contradiction. If you
think about nothing, you actually think of something. Thats nothing. Do you
get my point?
And if you establish an office of nothingness, there is something. Absolute
nothing must be something like nirvana, the total nothingness. But if you think
about that, nirvana also is something. That makes me wonder, is there really
something like nothing? I have never seen nothing... Except when my beercan
is empty.
