Breakfast and the synthesis of opposites

Breakfast today was Horizon organic milk with Froot Loops. There is something wrong in this picture.

On the other hand, perhaps not. It can be interpreted as the visible synthesis of the organic and the unnatural, a symbolic first step in the ever-closer relationship between man and machine, and so it is a deeply relevant cultural commentary.

On the third hand, that sounds very pretentious. Perhaps the organic milk is slowly turning me into a postmodernist critic.

On the fourth hand, where did I get so many hands? That's the side effect of eating Froot Loops.

You know, if I were to balance the health benefits of organic milk vs the side effects of fruit loops, I don't think I would have chosen that mixture. Perhaps nice yummy organic blue corn flakes with non-organic rBGH treated milk? They have that ever so wrong blue color that food should not be (much like Froot Loops), and yet they're all organic. I'm glad to hear you are sprouting new limbs, though. You can never have too many hands on hand.
