Three Jewish Mommas are sitting on a park bench.
The first says,
"My Ishmael! Best Son in the world - ! Rings me every Shabbat and we talk on the phone for an HOUR!"
The second says,
"Huh, My son Isaac! he's the BEST son! He rings me 3 times a week, and we talk for three hours!"
The last woman says,
"Huh! No, MY son Daniel is the best! He goes to his therapist 5 days a week, and all he can talk about, is me!"

But what happens when there is no question where one is expected? How do you find the question to be asked when one hasn't arisen?
No question, no answer. Done.

Good points from @FleaMarket, who may have it all totally wrong, which is a right … 😵💫
According to those who encounter me, I've never been quite right and they've never been quite wrong. Why start now? 
What might seem like a small thing was actually a massive internal win.
Small is big, black is white, emptiness is full. Soon truth will be a lie … whatever next … 
The harder we grasp, the more we have let go …

Oh yes! Ever since the heady days of the 90's. When I started watching English Football back then Peter Beardsley was my favourite player so I've followed the Toon ever since.
One of my best mates is from Whitley Bay.
I know Whitley Bay well, it was a popular drinking spot when I was young.
My sister-in-law's happiness at weekends are kind of controlled by how well Newcastle is doing. If they win, my brother is happy, if they lose, my brother is unbearable.
Maybe I'll suggest this forum to her?

Are you suggesting we make an enlightenment detector which works on data from a specially-trained cadre of mindfull observers? Sort of like a black hole detector which works on data from stars. For detecting enlightened ones at long distances.

@Kerome save your money for sand.
I comb my hair at least once a day. Does that count as Zen ra-king?
Also that toothbrush and denture dish is zen minus ...
Anybody like to buy an authentic zen representation of the Sahara desert (raked by wind) I have stabilised it and called it Zen Sand Paper Origami?

Some team from Oakland beat some team from Boston and got a pretty trophy and handfuls of cash and bragging rights.
Meanwhile in the International Snail Race, lap three of four, Flash Escargot hold the lead with Drag Foot hot on his heels as Slime trail gains. Winner expected to cross the finish line around 2:00 PM tomorrow.
The death that keeps on giving … I likes it. Would you use the proceeds for dana?
