Supermarket allegory
#1
A British supermarket has withdrawn a brand of monkey nuts from sale because they contain nuts.

This brings to fruition the old saying that sh*t can't be separated from shinola.

On a positive note, the nuts didn't appear to contain any horse meat, so that's good.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.

I remember taking a doona to the dry cleaners to get cleaned but they wouldn't clean it because it was ....dirty. Dog paw marks on it.

Something to do with the food-chain no doubt...
