[quoteost_uid0="Zeke"][color=#000000ost_uid0]((Just a little sidebar... anyone heard the old Zen koan about the flag? Â It goes like this: Two monks were arguing about a flag. One said: 'The flag is moving.' Â The other said: 'The wind is moving.' Â The sixth patriarch happened to be passing by. He told them: 'Not the wind, not the flag; mind is moving.'")[/colorost_uid0][/quoteost_uid0]
[color=#000000ost_uid0]BTW - Zeke, we did that Zen koen in Philosophy class about a month ago, and this scene was the first thing I thought of

Again - I'm going to do some cut and pasting of these - see what I can come up with...

Neo: What did the Oracle tell you?
Morpheus: She told me I'm the Super Ohm. See why I like anagrams?
Cypher: She said I was a nothing!

Neo: Hey, my favorite noodle house!

Boy: There is no spoon.
Neo: You have any Ramen Noodles to go with that spoon?
Boy: There are no noodles.
Morpheus: Not spoon, not soup, stomach is turning! Enough with the noodles!
Neo: Oh, quit being such a wet noodle.

(This could also work well with a line borrowed from the Oracle in the next scene "This is what's really gonna bake your noodle...")[/colorost_uid0]
