Twenty Two Halves Are Better Than One (Part 1)<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

TWENTY TWO HALVES ARE BETTER THAN ONE<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

What does this mean? This could be fun.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Written on the walls in tenement halls.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

On subway walls I see and hear its call.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

This statement had no meaning to me.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I will try to search it out and see.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

My search led me to a place just out of town.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the hell is this place?\u201d, I said with a frown.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Of course I had to go and find out.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Maybe it was a restaurant? I had doubts.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

When I got there, no one was around.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I knocked on the door with a frown.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

A mysterious woman answered the knock.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cCan I help you?\u201d wiping hands on her frock.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cTwenty two halves are better than one.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cI was led here. What is it? \u00a0Now that I\u2019m done.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cAhhh, a seeker of truth. Step right in.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I began to wonder what was within.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I stepped into what seemed to be a waiting room.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

She said \u201cWait here. I\u2019ll be back soon.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I found a chair and sat down.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

After awhile I heard a sound.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

An oriental man stepped into the room.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He was dressed like a monk or priestly groom.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cI have been informed you have questions?\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cYes, I am curious about your expressions.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThe twenty two halves are better than one.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cI will tell you. I am glad you have come.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

He led me to another room. <\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It had very little light. Mostly gloom.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cHave a seat and I will tell you all.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I sat down in a cushioned chair against a wall.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cFirst we will watch this informational film.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The room went black and a wall lit up like a kiln.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

A movie started with the phrase as the title.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The oriental man came on screen. He looked vital.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is hidden knowledge that few may know.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cKnown for centuries by these in this show.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThe origins and history will be explained.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cShocking as it may seem, don\u2019t be pained.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cYou wouldn\u2019t be drawn here if not chosen.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cTime for your insights to become unfrozen.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cLet us start at the beginning.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The screen showed a calendar spinning.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

It went back through the centuries. <\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

To early China according to entries.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Before the first dynasty, it seems.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

A few ancient wizards had dreams.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

They were trying to study the mind.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

They made a discovery about mankind.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The twenty two halves equal 11 brains.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Much better than one brain. Much is gained.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

What was explained next<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I certainly did not expect.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

I will explain a little later.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

My brain feels like a vibrator.<\/span><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
