Re: Hi, new member here!
True. It was a play on words with regard to your namesake’s story of falling into a hole because he was looking up instead of where he was going. Of course he had the last laugh. But then again, that hole was not a rabbit hole. The problem with rabbit holes, as Alice discovered, is that once you fall in you can’t look up. In the rabbit hole there is no up or down. It is all too easy around here to get sucked into a bottomless pit of someone else’s confusion, delusion, and illlogic.Yes!, like the warning, but as you are aware, sometimes, we find very interesting things in ''holes in the ground'' …
Logic on holiday can be fun, but it is best to just enjoy the ride and not get too wrapped up in trying to bring sense to Hatters and Hares, even if at the moment they may appear to be sane. Alice thinks:
She was wrong. The Cheshire Cat grins.The most philosophical and Socratic of the lot, although Alice does learn a thing or two from her journey.The March Hare will be much the most interesting, and perhaps as this is May it won't be raving mad – at least not so mad as it was in March.
