Little people cars!
I am watching the women's World Cup soccer France vs Mexico. France just scored for the second time the first goal was the second fastest goal ever at 55 seconds, then the second
And now a third in under twelve minutes. Very rare action for woman's soccer, only one was from a stoppage, a corner kick.
The world of women's international football, soccer is a small puddle of some phenomenal
Athletes, there are also a bunch of the Nutcracker and . ? Slipped the mind,... But it is so fun to see these sorts of 'take me back 'shots.
When I was a ll in big bill found my antics with les and Johnny to be the drama he choose to laugh at I mean really it was no fun to stand behind him in the wings the thing that was really cool was that Ryan les and Jon could take the party and go back to the show, it was show-boating to have security pass you through to the front of the stage, I went to the party couple of times , not a big groups band their was a cool people area that was not easy if you were male and I only got to sit off to the side, by the way this was the b way shows, I was with Shule's brothers kid !
By the way France has scored again it is four nil. . Still the first half.
Eek we can't leave the page in June !
Not on my watch I hope any
way
be good today
I was hit by the awful so and then used stems '

And I only took one hit!
There it was, one of the five opened bewks, staring up at me from my lap.
I'd fallen into reverie while recalling Munginella/Selaginella with another Flame, Throwpie, back some time ago.
Back-back-back-back-back,
in the way-back-back-back-back-back machine,
before the advent of ESPN and Chris Berman.
Important, nice, interesting bewks, like.
Ninety Degrees of Diedre Lyback by Throwpie himself;
Flanges, Flumes, and Flames I Have Gnome by MFM;
The InkStains: The Soul of Rhythm and Blues by zBrown;
Kafkadio's Adventures, or Pains of Glasses by Harry Stein;
Sting Like a Butterfly by B. Sting with Ron Anderson.
Really, I hate these birds and is why I don't shoot more of them.
They are harder to shoot than to shoo, too.
And they don't like loud noises.
Good thing for them I'm quiet as a mouse and don't appreciate "loud."

I was gonna say 'her hair was perfect", but that might be too mean.
I don't know about WR Hearst, but is it at all possible that she really wasn't white, but rather Symbionese? I bet if we had Ron Anderson's email address and asked politely we could get a hold of some of the cyanide tipped bullets so popular back in the old daze.
Anti-capitalists that they were, I [also] bet none of them bothered to trademark that symbol. Someone needs to get that ball rolling. Maybe le_Bron, he's going to have some down time.
I heard he almost cut his hair.

Say What, there? I failed to watch, but had not planned to watch
So what do I have to say, having planned to fail and failed away
That is I succeeded because I did not fail to plan
It's a labyrinth out there, huh?

Here's what was being said about the French Women's Football Team just yesterday.
http://www.ottawasun.com/2015/06/16/mexico-looks-to-upset-france
http://www.newyorker.com/news/sporting-scene/french-women-are-taking-over-soccer
The “World Cup effect” on women’s soccer has not yet faded. The F.F.F. counted 54,482 licensed female players in 2011.
That number rose to 66,787, in 2013, and to 83,000, i 2015.
Much of this owes to the victories of Les Bleues, increased media coverage of the team,
and the opportunities that aspiring footballeuses now have to play in clubs and, for the top players, to train in one of the academies.
...one of the most surprising trends is that, since 2011, the biggest area of growth has been among teen-age girls
—a demographic that has long been difficult to retain.
As the number of teen-agers playing soccer has increased, so has the level of play: in the past four years,
France has won the U-17 World Cup and the U-19 UEFA European Championship.
The future is promising for women’s soccer in France. And hopes are high for this year’s World Cup. More people are watching than ever before, and the expectations for the team have never been higher.

Funny birds out near the vet hospital. Although it is hard to get accurate numbers, there do not appear to be a lot of them.
This is pretty sad, six people died when a 4th story balcony collapsed at an apartment building on Kittredge in Berkeley yesterday.
neebee actually got a photo of the little red rooster - shzaaam, get Willie Dixon on the heavenly iDevice. Jobs actually had a well secreted project where Apple was going to build a device with which you could could carry on a conversation with the Dead (Garcia opted out).

This is only a sample of what we have managed to avoid in my lifetime.

Thank God that little red rooster Nikita didn't get all feisty over that Bay of Pigs deal. Your bird count would be substantially lower, even, than it is.

Happy Juneteenth!
Does this mean blacks and whites have settled their differences?
No. But it helped get the ball rolling in the right direction, back in 1865, or so one hopes.
http://time.com/3914574/juneteenth/
It was not the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, obviously, and most whites probably never know much more than the basics about the celebration's roots
and history.
I only heard of it when there was a book published posthumously in the name of Ralph Ellison, who wrote The Invisible Man.
http://www.nytimes.com/books/99/05/23/daily/052599ellison-book-review.html
Apparently, Juneteenth caused quite a storm in Texas, something we've seen a bit of here lately, having looked at neebee's FB timeline (the Beulah Hurricane).

Not that I won't but I haven't read that new share yet, as I live ,
and live with, while living in an urban jungle,
I do not often dwell on the plight of the darker man.
I recognize the vicious double standards and hang with some people for whom it is the reality.
But I want you to also know that it is a hard won thing that I can hang with the brothers, I don't try to be cool or play it, I like reggae, and not any thing past Lauren Hill, in fact why I know the Robert Zimmerman link to modern rap I find the hip hop modern thug And its offshoots
Pretty much unlistenable.
Have you checked out the NPR radio show its name is also its premise
Small desk??? I was blown away by some black rap stars skill and grace at a live performance to a %80 white audience of less than sixty people in an office setting .
This niggha' sat down and held the energy -now I have like some of that wrong
Why for goodness sake are you up ? This is news I only have %4 battery gotta plug in.. ...

I got the camera back ,and that is while I was regularly checking its repair status on the web-site monitor. The report warned of a back-ordered part and to watch for up dates when the box landed at the door.

2% power plugging In, is not doing it. Sleep this unit, move the girls 'n boys, get my time at the desk top.(?)
A thread started by jaybro, did you see it? How to size photos?
I use Apple desktop, is that pretty much the same Apple as Jaybro?
My Wife, the Electrician here, is a teacher of simple outline and using common sense. She gave me the beta on always copying any JPEG file and sizing the copy, in fact creating files of the same picture titled ( x-1, x-2, etc,)
Gotta get this charging started ?!

zBrown-
Sorry to go back to this but....
Believe me, when we're talking college B Ball, those specifics matter, and not just to people in the region.
Like, it's kind of a big deal that Jordan was a Tarheel not a Blue Devil.
And if you casually dropped the AZ/ AZ State thing while talking to Steve Kerr, Andre Iguodala,or even Bill Walton, they'd correct you...as you were being escorted out of the building.
College basketball rivalries are serious business, especially in a college basketball town like Tucson.
We often follow our players to the pros and root for those teams, which is why the GSW win is front page news in Tucson, Arizona. Steve Kerr, Luke Walton(assistant coach), Andre Iguodala---Wildcats, not Sun Devils. Tucson, not Phoenix.

The Garuda
A large, bird-like creature, daring and fearless and abides in the north.
With great strength and power it soars beyond without holding back.
It symbolizes freedom from hopes and fears, the vast mind without reference point.
It is a powerful antidote to the negative influences of Nagas which can cause disease and all kinds of harm.
Its avatars are many and two are shown here in one photo.
Recalled by the following tale, recalled by a Berkeleyite who frequents Peets Coffee.
On a Sunday many years ago
My parents were in Aberdeen, Scotland,
and they woke up and, being New Yorkers,
Went looking for a cup of coffee.
They stopped a man on the street
Who said, "I must inform thee,
This is a presbyterian town,
And we keep the sabbath, mon."
Garuda Blend, for when life gets to you
He's not very happy...

As I recall Bill Walton went to Helix, played out at Muni, went to UCLA, then Portland, even went to Boston.
I'll ask him next time I see him, but my guess is that all he cares about is that UCLA handled all the AZ teams. He does have a soft spot for his son, so maybe not. My guess is that Coach Wooden felt the same way.
