While I am 'retired' and no longer interrupted by a workaday job, I actually find myself knitting thoughts of various types. Others stick with knitting or crochetting but I insist on asking questions. Like why do we eat eggs? might it be an ancient memory of our reptilian origins? Why do Creationists deny our wisdom teeth, our gill slits as embroyos, our appendix? Why deny our physical behaviors, impulse to be pugnacious, and all other behaviors that are clearly Not of God's image? We are not the end of our evolutions either. There will be, (if we don't kill ourselves as a species or barring natural disaster) more changes within us and we will evolve further. Why deny the fact that some of us unfortunately by accident of birth are deficient in intelligence, deformed, born as conjoined twins, and come forth in infinite variety? Yes, I do. I do question. We are made to question. God in his infinite wisdom, knowing all did realize we were to taste the fobidden 'fruit' of knowledge of good and evil, knew full well we would. Therefore, He said, in effect -- if you desire to know it all, then realize the responsibility in that knowing. And we are learning yet today that lesson. Hmmm, I wonder if I'm gonna get some reactions to this. heheh.

I betcha = part 2

Back in February of 05, I sed Mars has life on it. Martian natives. Not just us. Now the methane plumes are being being gassed about (smile!) And so either way, it's good news, all that methane stuff. Who would've thunk it, rotten eggs are top news in science. Flatulence!!!! Mars Farts!

here we go again -- I'm not that good on the slots either.

Okay. I hope to heck I'm wrong on this. WE are going to be in for a very confusing time when the sun has its temper tantrum --- sonny spots. I knew there was a reason to keep the land-line analog telephones. Know the way to San Jose?? I hope someone does just in case the GPS goes out. If we're lucky, we'll keep our heads straight when the blackouts occur. It's a sun-storm. It'll pass.

Dangit, just when I had my life fairly on-line. Please let us keep the Internet alive, huh?

Oh by the way, those who say that such as Sylvia Browne (with an e) is some kind of a charlatan, realize that of all our 'unexplained' talents we homo sapiens appear to possess, psychic ability is maddeningly unmeasurable. Also our communication ,even if we have language in common, is notoriously unreliable. If I say your dying great grandmother was going to be fine and happy, I did not say just how or where. "She's going to be fine!" so? she died? Well she's fine now!! Also, even psychics will tell you that they don't always call it right. Sometimes the communication gets garbled on our side. That doesn't mean we didn't get the word. To me it's a wonder psychics can do it at all!!! Gee whiz people, don't get your panties in a bunch! Just enjoy it, take what you can, and realize there is more under the sun than you or I dare deny. P.S. real psychics can't 'divine' for themselves because they are generally the biggest skeptics when it comes to dealing with themselves.

Methinks those who yell alot about this subject protest too much. I leave debunking of stuff to my own personal 'backyard'.

HOKAY, IT'S 2009

New start, new day. The basement is finally up 85% wallboard. We go get all the appliances Saturday. Just do it, is my motto. (Yipes) Christmas was very sweet, good presents from my friends, pictures and letters and books from my daughters, An "antique" from my 'antique' sweetie,matching bathroom set, labeller, all kinds of good things. I'm warm, the house is happy and I've got to take down the x-mas tree.


AIN'T IT PURDY?

Some disquieting news. Earthquakes in Wyoming. Grim ol caldera is mumbling up there at Yellowstone. Yeep. More Israelis bombing the heck out of the Gaza Strip, But things are partylike in Iraq as we turn over some real estate. IN Colorado a self-styled bomber deposited 'presents' and then committed suicide. I think the stocky market and stuff like the above qualifies as part of my predicted surprise, don't you? Pray for Obama, he's gonna need it.
