The Big Holiday/Holy Day Race
Chariots of fie
Fly in God's eye
Jesus takes a hit
Moves over a bit
While Buddha transcends
Poor Pharoah just weeps
This is for keeps
And Second Lutheran noses
Out First Baptist
To win the roses

It doesn't seem to matter a whit whether a person is a 'lukewarm' believer in Jesus or not, for, apparently, heat has little to do with SPONTANEOUS HUMAN COMBUSTION. All it takes is one little spark.
Be cautioned: some may not be up for the following. It's as gross as you can imagine. It's right-out-of-the-tabloid stuff.

No candles on that birthday cake, okay, Mom?
And did Ruby have a good birthday?
I had a nice conversation with Patti Ann Marie last night, who lives with neebee.
And this morning I spoke with brother Tim, whose dog is losing hair around her rear end, but it's on the mend. She's getting up there, too. Maybe eleven yrs. old, I'd guess.

now this was a thing, that to get to go 'off grid' I needed to find a good excuse,
and a soccer tournament on fields below my old stomping grounds in the nutmeg state was a great one.
The things the one remembers, here is the view now , no climbing allowed!Infact when I drive the old roads to the top of the ridge where the easy access is,
there are signs of an un-official , but still officious nature,
that say things like no through traffic - access to the tower is off rt 83,
or some such any way a lot of the rock is still gorrilla axes, and I do a great Ape after allthis is the Diabase of my namesake and bullit hard and I could go on and and onG O D's OWN STONE! is all equally judged]now as compared to life before...the scary thing is, after two days of 'car camping' we are all 'slumping' - & - the dog has the same posture?!,
now make no mistake when last i checked the butthurt an de' epoxracy! why johhny you feeling' the karmwa?

A family Pet; it was the right thing, if it was a bit fast after Daisy. .. .. but
She is from that military/urban patrol school. When we open a door she does a search and sits to alert all clear or barks if say the bird has gotten loose.
We have no need for her training which includes being first through doors after the battering ram.
Her name is Dina which is not her name but the name that Ahmed could pronounce.
Or a sardonic twist on the fact that he spent a lot of Dinero, on her and it was a bust.
She was not relatable to make the bust or not eat the evidence since having nine pups in her first go. Her focus was bust.
and after nine pups she failed out for having no focus when it counts
We love her she's is so sweet only my second girl dog,
She responds best to stern commands, and s sharp corrective tone , That gets old but
After a bit and getting her fixed we will see how she is for the next who know how long
This time
Mherd I miss the old girl still, - 15 yrs is a long time.
but I fear she has a chronic ear issue?

By George, next thing ya know, they'll all be millionaires.
George Huey was an excellent decoy carver. If he was alive today, he would be a wealthy man. Today, one single decoy is worth well over two thousand dollars. People all over the country admire his work. Two of his decoys are on loan to the Friendship Museum.
Very Sleek Pair of Goldeneye Decoys from the Friendship/Waldoboro area of Maine, circa 1920s. The Original Owner attributed these Decoys to George Huey of Friendship, Maine, but it is Much More Likely that a Different Carver was Influence by Huey Decoys. Other Decoys from Friendship and Waldoboro were clearly made by Other Carvers in the Huey Style, though the specific individuals have not been documented as far as we know. These Specific Goldeneye Decoys display Carved Eyes, Inletted Heads, a Sleek Design, plus Worn Original Paint with Some Remnants of Early Repaint. They also Retain their Original Rigging. Measurements: 13 ½” in length (Drake) 12 ½” (Hen), 5 ¼” in width, and 6 ½” in height (Stands Not Included). A Fine Pair of Sleek Goldeneye from the Maine Coast.
Well, I'm groanin' in a hallway
Pretty soon I'll be mad
Please, Missus Henry, won't you
Take me to your dad ?
I can drink like a fish
I can crawl like a snake
I can bite like a turkey
I can slam like a drake
Please, Missus Henry, Missus Henry,
Please
Please, Missus Henry, please
I'm down on my knees
And I ain't got a dime.

Me thinks it be strange co ink ee dink that the topic has turned to
them things!?
Fake Ducks?!
Sees as it is, or was that there be, in my pappy's closet, a fair gaggle of duck decoys. Rumored to be with something, when i checked, the value was gone, replaced by crap dad would never have had near his collection and for sure did not buy.
I think they are still floating around and a pic or two showing how to tell them the fake fake pho decoy ducks from the for real real valuable not fake but still phony (no shot damage) hand carved old duck decoys, seems very on the grill here at the flames and it is a topic fake duck?! that to flame woot woot bring on the woo
what the hell does that even mean any way?
I copped to it; being a bringer of the woo! A hater and a science illiterate or some such it may make a gud paste n' cut if I'm not too lazy . . . . . in the new old siht-storm in the tip of a condom, the fuded-mental religion vs science thread.

Keep seeing "Woo" or "Woo woo"
posted on ST so I finally looked it up...
"woo woo
Unfounded or ludicrouse beliefs
Belief in talking to the dead, belief in telikenesis,
in fact any belief not founded on good evidence,
the poorer the evidence the more Woo Woo the belief." ...
Hmmm...
I can think of quite a few "Belief systems" that fit...
Oh I love the sweet self-deprecation of the fact that with out prior knowledge
i think i nailed it as it is by what locker said a standard to take with a big sniff of glue.

Nice to see you guys can see through the woo,
science illiteracy and hate / hater rhetoric
(so immensely pop now amongst esp fund Christians)
as the case may be.
Understandable.
What else do they have to retort with?
Facts?
Reason?
Science?
Evidence?
We're witnessing a revolution in belief with each passing day.
Exciting times.
The Christians/Muslims say...
"There is no God but Jehovah."
Atheists agree with 2/3 of that.

Not sure who here is the science illiterate hate monger advocating for woo? My best guess is his last name is Strawman.
I'm not a wooist and certainly not a hater and I've had plenty of science but I also see an arrogance in the practitioners of science that serves nobody very well. It's an arrogance that sometimes rivals the certainty of a religious zealot of any stripe. Given the strangeness of our being in this strangest of all possible places it seems remarkable that anyone can claim with certainty that their particular method of knowing will lead us to any kind of certain and final knowledge and that they can then say with perfect certainty there is no final term.

it seems remarkable that anyone can claim with certainty that their particular method
of knowing will lead us to any kind of certain and final knowledge
I, too, have always found such claims remarkable. Can anyone imagine the arrogance
possessed by those who say, on no data whatsoever, they know for a certainty that I will
burn forever in Hell if I don't obey them and their book?
We have, recently, had a great demonstration for lack of arrogance. One group of people
had measured the polarization possessed by the cosmic microwave background, found the
mode patterns suggesting, for the first time, we had data supporting the existence of gravity
waves generated during the first moments of our universe. Another group found alternatively
those patterns might have been partly generated by light scattering off dust found in the
field of view.
And here is where it got good. The first group was not fully invested in their being "correct
with certainty." They repeated the second group's analysis and agreed dust could have had
an impact, and that they had more work to do.
Science has a very fundamental strategy for dealing with arrogance. Scientists have a goal
that is more important than their goal of proving they are "right".
It is to prove that they could be wrong.
Edit:
And, still, I hear nothing from you about the arrogance of the religious. The bible is their
"method". No comment there? The declining birth rate in Italy is persuasive data suggesting
even there the bible is subject to cherry picking. Any comments on this ongoing breakdown
of that "method"?
And of course there is yesterday's vote in Ireland. The bible as a "method" is looking rather tattered.

Certainly not, silly moose!
Even Fruity has a moral or two. But I see different reasonings between the mechanistic and the spiritualist points of view. Most secularist condone to thou shalt not steal. It's easy for the mechanistic to visualize and materialize once they've been ripped off, that it's not good, therefore they agree no one should do it. And the rest of their do's and don'ts come by way of this experimentation. Kinda like the child that keeps playing with fire till he finally gets burned. But for the believer in Christ the rules differ. There is number one, an understanding under love. A trust and belief, then a faith(acting on that belief) that confirms our love is receiprecated. A child can learn a flame burns merely through loving words from a loving relationship. The Truth that fire burns, therefor can be learned one of two ways, materially or spiritually. Spiritual Christians don't take morals such as "thou shalt stay a virgin until your married", handed down by our heavenly Father as to be a fun buster! The mechanistic says, usually after a few drinks, "I want to, now she wants to, it feels good, so why shouldn't we have sex?" or "what if after we're married we don't have fun in bed?" these are again, mechanistic worries sought to relieve the need for pleasure today instead of the painstakingly hard work of planning for a future. The Christian on the other hand hears the loving gesture from our Father above and trusts in that belief of saving oneself's greatest pleasure of the material body for that unique someone that is worth committing a vow toward a lifelong experience, will walk in faith.
In harnessing natures urging to procreate, and the pleasures therein. God shows us a path that brings a higher esteem and value towards the act of sex. With higher esteem and higher goals, maybe brings a higher quality vision of how we want to bring our higher prized offspring into the world!

Ten Haiku Boulder
this aft
Warbler's sister's haikus
Skipt across his memory
Like a lead balloon.
this morn
Alyssa defined arc,
At the bookstore, as a part,
A circle segment.
she said
Arch comes from an arc,
Has nada to do with an ark,
Noah, nor Noe Valley.
recall
St. George's Homes are
Up on Arch Street in Berkeley.
Where kids go crazy.
sorta
Just like Roper,
Pratt, and Long, and all the rest
We climbed on the Arches.
it seems
A Long time ago
This crew descended: en masse
To TMs they went.
but when?
Oh, many years ago;
They needed priming, to know
Where they were needed.
and why?
Kids feed on heroes:
They pray for them and to them,
To be just like them.
even
Heroes sometimes die,
Taking us with them to hells
Which they don't deserve.
you see
What hero worship
Does? Kills what's inside of you
And nobody wins.
I confused Chappie with Warbler, but no one seems to have noticed.
I still feel silly.
Gnome, let's get one thing perfectly Cleare at least, otay?

The Matterhorn was created by:

Okay that is a shot of that ruble I have not seen ?
Do you recall that my last try to parlay with neebs, was my saying that chunk of choss takes way more than it gives?
I really do not care for the iconic, and especially so in the case of the Matterhorn!
That is the saddest of climbing goals on the planet after about fifty Ken Nichols routes and a few of Swines too.
All of my first ascents are pure and up right in annals of anus hood my zones stand out like a. . .
BLUEBUTTPLUGG!!
Sorry but all I have is a lot of whine . . . . . .bad complaints from the road more often foul than fair. . . .
Broke
And
Broke the camera
The 'computer fix was what I had in the bank
The lawn is a field
The new dog stinks as in smells and I have a hang nail
Time to tell
You the truth since I was thrown out of school a long time ago for fighting
and sneaking a joint rolled with a wire in the paper remember those insta roach papers?
Photo interlude;
Any way before I loose the train of thought, it was May twenty fith 1978 and I was not aware that I was on double secret probation,
The dean of students was carrying on an illicit sexual affair.
I had been lucky, when cutting third period,to have watched them in an abandoned hallway.
Yup they must of sen me and it was only a matter of making me out to be a stoner or in a fight
A dyne tears my father would hold back as my intelligence was wasted by thugs named
Frank Romano.
Strange stones share about one of the many reasons I dread the week of May 23 - May 30
Every year like spring fever stuff goes wrong goes down
Often
In
Flames!
Complaints of this nature just annoy every one who might have given a siht,
but add the wine and whine and no one is listening any more
Did you all get that
Yeah, you know what more complaining wil get you , you know I need a swift kick in the head,
So I tell myself to shut up harden up and generally toughen the blank up you are not going as quick as the . . .
Hope you are well still in and all of that.
Nice that parade! mine here was nice too !
