Here's a notion I'm experimenting with. See how you like it.
Awareness without an Avatar - - Cannot Exist
"If I hear the word Doffelganger one more time - - - I'm going to have to learn how to Spell it"
"Anyway it had to be- - two Lives - - one Destiny"
I won't pass any psychological stability tests for saying this but it's my belief that this song is neither about sex- - nor Marriage
"If you want my body - - and you think I'm Sexy - - "
Now THERE is a Wadding Song for you!
And Bon Scott says: "Go Down! - Go Down! - Go Down!"
And Stephano says, "Bellisimo!"
The Los Angeles Dodgers
have clinched the National League West today September 19, 2013, beating the
Arizona Diamond Backs 7 to 6. They had a
come from behind win because they were down 3 to 6 at one point. Seldom has a team been in last place at the
end of June and come back to win a division title, but one of the times it
happened was with the 1914 Boston Braves, who apparently went on to win the
World Series. I assume this feat will
insure over the air television coverage of the play-off games. They start two weeks from today. The Dodgers are the first team in major
league baseball to win a divisional championship this year.
Pope Francis has been
making more of those strange statements in his endeavor to shake things up in
the Catholic Church. The Pope said that
for too long have Priests been “obsessed” with the topics of abortion, and gay
marriage, and contraception. Because
there are a lot of other issues that are more important in these troubled times. The Pope even spoke of such clergy who harp
on these topics as “small minded”. He
said what a lot of us have been thinking- - of clergy that appeal to a “select
group”, which is what John Mac Arthur specializes in. As you know Mac Arthur specifically fingered
those pastors who run “Seeker friendly ministries”. But the sage saying of the day award goes
to none other than Christine Di Mira.
Because she felt a little puzzled by her priest speaking in such terms
of “Where is your relation going?” or other expressions that treat the relation
as a “thing”, that you can “work on” and “develop”. Christine said – correctly - - “I thought
relationships just Were”. That’s it. Relations just Are. They Are until they Aren’t. If you look at as a math thing (the way I
look at so many things) this view of relationships makes perfect sense. They aren’t “things” they are what they
ARE. To attach “thing-hood” to a
Relationship is to anthropomorphize them.

I am still looking for
that elusive patch of common ground that Judy and I might share. I’m intrigued by this passing thought (now
and then) of the idea that if Banks have all of this money and you need it- -
and for instance they say they won’t lend it out for a half of a percent
interest even though President Obama lets them have it for that. No.
You could offer more, such as maybe one and a half percent, or even
three and a half percent or higher. If
it doesn’t MATTER what percent you offer and they STILL won’t lend the money- -
then there is some NEW force at work here that has nothing to do with the Free
Market economy. Really when you come
right down to it, Messers Bush and Obama have just Given- - the Rich Wall
Street bankers trillions of dollars over the past five years. They said that 95% of the growth of wealth
has come about from Obama just loading the rich with the green stuff. It’s almost as if they just backed up a dump
truck to the US Treasury and the Obama Administration just loaded the bags of
money in. And by the way- - one
investment commercial that just might merit looking into is this one on the
Rush Limbaugh show talking about how Silver is slated to rise sharply in value
as a commodity. You know this- - give
today’s troubled times- - precious metals aren’t going to CRASH in value in
1980. No, they don’t pay dividends, but
they won’t crash either, and given the
right conditions- - owning precious metals may be the best way to increase your
capital.
This whole saga of the
Florida football player who left his apartment to his son, who turned it over
to three hundred wild party people, who utterly trashed the place and caused
twenty thousand dollars- - let me tell you that football guy was a whole lot
calmer about the whole thing than I would have been. If it were me I would do what I call a “class
action law suit” in reverse. I’d sue the
parents of all three hundred of those kids - - and I’d win because unlike
criminal court all I’d need is a preponderance of evidence that those kids did
the damage, and I’d also pay the Court Costs, too. I believe under the law I’d be entitled to
that. And having to own up to their
little trespass against property- - would be the best thing to happen to them.
Ken Norton died today
so another icon of Boxing is gone. As
Moe Kelly stated earlier, Boxing just isn’t the high status sport that it was
in this country when I was growing up, up to a point of about twenty years ago,
when something happened. Apparently one
female who called literally thought that George Forman just sold barbecues. “I thought he was a professional chef or
something”. Apparently Ken Norton - -
applied for the part of Apollo Creed in the Rocky movies. Other people are saying that the sport of
professional football is not long for this world despite what it looks like
now. Some fear it may be turned into
such a whoos game with a bunch of new rules- - that it just isn’t fun to watch
any more. I don’t know about that. What they could do - - and this sounds
treasonous - - is to place some weight limit on the entire league such as say
270 pounds, and if you are any heavier than that you just can’t play in the
NFL.
