Here we go again, for the umpteenth time

Creationists vs Evolutionists. The Bible thumpers insist that the Book squelches all arguments. "Literally True!" they sing out, but my dears, have they READ the Book? In Genesis, word for word, step by step, it outlines exactly how life was formed on the Earth. Guess what. It's just like the evolutionists say! God created, light, day, night, sea, land, vegetables, animals.... in that order. Also the grass was formed before trees. Yep Yep Yep. It seems to me that God gave man a brain. Use It! If you really read it, and study evolution in it's classic sense, you'll see that lo! there are no dichotomies, no arguments, no disagreements. One just proves the other. I just think its amazing that the early writers of the Bible managed to get so much correctly, centuries before modern Archeology, Biology, DNA and all that technology tooling we can do today. C'mon people. Wakey wakey. Its time to recognize the essential study of mankind. We must understand our beginnings before we can evolve into the beings we could achieve, beings worthy of continuation. If we don't, well the, extinction of our species will be 100% certain.

All right you hoaxers. Stop it stop it stop it!! Put your models away, your boards and measuring string. Stop making with the crop circles and the UFO sightings and other nutty stuff you think is 'oh so clever' to create. There is enough actual 'questionables' going on, on this planet without you nudnicks horning in with your cute jokes. Scientists do not find you amusing. We, who have open questioning minds, tire of the jerking around. It's not funny, it's not productive, it's taking advantage of general good nature of people. Spend the energy in investigating the various phenonemas you are copying! Dang it, I never could understand the drive that makes people 'one up' on their fellows by practical jokery. You STILL have not explained all the crop circles!! Put the boards away, you idiots.

Stitches out!

Ping! Ping! Ping! Not too bad. It does sting tho -- which makes me a physical wimp. owell. Now it's time for me to exercise and bend knee ... walk, stretch, get it back into servicable order. The House passed the Cloning thing from placentas. Okay, senate next, and a lot of us are not really happy with Bush right now. Around the universe, things are as per normal. Nothing new but I'm happy to see the rover Opportunity is trying to dig out of the sand trap. Golf on Mars??? Do I dare predict that this will be a sport?

Ok so it was three holes

I'm back! Ambulatory. Three lil holes. Still achy,sore. Let us heal!!!! HEAL!!!It's Sunday!!! I am going to do a thing on me! HEAL!! I need to get back into the walkin' thing, as in exception to the hobbling thing. The garden awaits!!! all the seeds. Enough exclamation points. The seeds are in and are germinating as I type.

Get Out There. Outer space. Enough timid poking. Let's get on with the successes and explore the moon, get space stations out there, and traject to Mars. Send our cameras and our lil tiny shovels. It's time to play in that sandbox! Our robotics are getting awfully clever so I don't mind sending them out to gather.

Was it three shots or four ( or more?) Does it matter. Conspiracy monspiracy. The main point is: the government will have to find another way to handle our instant communication --- coverups are SO twentieth century, guys. Stop the lying. It doesn't work. It never did, really, but now we got the technology to prove you guys are confabulating big fibs. Cut it out.

P.S. trach tubes for general anesthesia are NOT fun.

So I kinda wore self out, going to store, Wallyworld, library, stocking up for fact that I'm gonna be on a walker and it's my driving knee --- no drivey car for awhile....Ahhhhgggghh! And of course I live in a 3rd floor walkup, no elevators, sweeties. And I've done this before, and So I Went Shopping!!! to stock up so I can hibernate a bit. Got walker in the car!! Off to see the wizard with his knife! Don't take your knees for granted, kiddies.

On to Disneyland ---

Tomorrow, its general anethesia time. Just for two lil holes in the knee. Dangit. But on the good side, I get a nice nap out of it. Don't get 'football' injuries when you are on the other side of 60!! take care of knees!! They really can be stinkers if they go on ya. What my problem is -a torn tendon, or ligament, or somesuch rubberband like thing that lets you pivot and twist on the knee joint. When you don't pivot anymore or twist, it's amazing what you can't do. Very well. Went to get a pic of how I feel tonite. Kinda pooped. Not in the mood for tomorrow. Can't eat until it's over and that's tomorrow night. Oh am I glad I'm gonna be asleep for part of it???? I don't do operations well. Tend to be confining, if you catch my drift. Specially on legs!!!!

Cystis Fibrosis

Hello Ladies and Gentle beings --Got a bit of "wonderful news" (drip sarcasm here) -- seems my 4 year old grandchild, Megan has Cystis Fibrosis. Ahhh, nice. Well it did explain a lot of mysterious things in her short life from birth, and now we are armed with the knowledge, it's time for attack. I have been looking up this disease and find it's interesting, a possible connection in gene structure to chronic bronchitis, diabetes, and other digestive problems. I suspect with all the nice things I have, that I am probably a carrier, and so is my daughter who married a carrier and Bingo! As Krista said, "We should have played the lottery that day" (when they met...)Poor little Megan! Any of you people who wish you could eat everything and remain slender and petite, be careful of what you wish for. It's a good symptom of CF, meaning you aren't getting all your benefits from food and you have to eat a whole lot of it, plus supplements... ahhhh!

Our whole family is falling apart. Eldest daughter has diabetes. I can tell you from first hand experience, that's a joy.

So! Color me a pro-gene research person!!! Let's bring on the clones!~! Fight these diseases!! Remember, gene research and cell cloning does NOT mean killing babies. We can harvest those from placentas. There are many ways to clone for organs, (I need a new pancreas myself) --- While there is no truth to ostriches hiding heads in the sand, we homo saps do have a tendency to hide our ability to think and discover under dogma and outmoded belief systems.

Follow the Leader

Discovery peoples have an article in their mag this month -- that sheep, and other herding animals will go however a few leaders go. Schools of fish, birds in air do same thing. It's not mental telepathy as much as just going where the few individuals take. Hmm. Peoples do same thing. A few leaders can influence a whole 'herd' of people. yeahhh, but not ALL Lemmings go over the cliff - some actually say "Hey waitaminit ---" and put on brakes. Okay, okay, they don't actually do that, but some will stop and not go over. So with people. Some do not go with the crowd. Therein lies the difference that sometimes makes a few changes resulting in increased survival of species. Jump? Or not jump? That is a common choice we all have. It never continues to amaze me how people insist we do not have instincts that guide our behavior. We do. The trick is, to know it and base choices upon that awareness. We are in for a wet week. Spring is doing its thing out here on the prairie! Still not enough water.

Lately saw a program on Decisions That Changed the World, and it was an article On Lyndon B. Johnson. Maligned and devalued, he nevertheless made some very important strides in legistation to fix segregation. But, never mind his problem with the Viet Nam War, his real problem is he's uglier than JFK. We still react very much to charisma and good looks, not that its not deserved, but often it stacks the favors. I am not a real dog, kinda cute, grandmotherly, don't scare horses or small children, but I have been at the crux of such discrimination. It bites, both ways. When the time will come when homo sapiens is truly wise, and no longer judges by surface impressions only, then perhaps we can finally progress as human beings worthy of continuation as a species. Ugly is as Ugly does, but dumb, stupid ignorance is to the bone.

Speaking of the Devil

Been reading and drifting around in the blogs -- According to the fiction series, Humans, Hybrids, and Hominids, A good punishment for sex crimes, rape, child molestations, etc, is castration. Take the balls. Take the testosterone. Stop it right now. Any freedom abused, is freedom lost.

While I'm on the subject of rights and the forfeiting of same, I feel that if you take a life, (murder, sweeties), Then you forfeit your rights. ALL OF THEM. They catch you in the act, and kiss your "rights" goodbye. You have none. We can take your carcass and do what we want. Test drugs, try out mind-experiments, operation experiments ---

Death penalty?? Too boring and staid. No punishment.

Become a lab animal. Right. Deterrent right there.

NO it's NOT April fool. I serious. Behave yourselves out there!!
