Finally


At long last, I got back into my blog. This has been one of those seemingly unsolvable Internet fiascoes.

I was not able to get to work on my blog for several months, and when I go back, I am being asked for a gmail account. What Gmail account? I never had one. I try an unrequited 25 or so possible combinations all of which are not the right combination to unlock my access to my own blog.

I then go to google help files, which were no help and that I felt like a dog chasing their tale is probably underplaying what I experienced. Of course there is no way to contact a live person through email. I give up, but every month at least once try again, hoping the hand of God will zap my brain with a new combination, and today I hit the jackpot folks. So, for better or worse, here I am again folks.

I know that some of you will find the above amusing, and have similar experiences creating an Internet personae. Here is another amusing Internet tale.

I have these friends who question everything, but for some reason, if they find it on the Internet, it becomes the gospel of our times. I wonder how many of you have back tracked website addresses to their root to find a big surprise, at the end, about who was the source of what you were reading about.

I had one such interesting experience this week. Perhaps, some of you know the Stumble On It system, which is a browser attachment. The system allows you to pick topics to look at web sites about, by just clicking a button that randomly shows you a site related to one of your topics. Some of the things that come up are pictures often with no one to credit, so I save them to be part of my screensaver or other places for possible further use. Oftentimes, when possible, I go backwards on the address leaving off the ending after the / and come up with other pictures and the photographer--not always though.

So I come to the ABOVE cute photo, which I post here with the web address below. I suggest you go backward and see the other pictures and go further backwards to the root address to see where that gets you. This is a perfect example to look at who wants you to read what. If you are not a bit taken a back. I suggest that you look at some articles about who is editing things on Wikipedia and for what reason. All for now, but I will make a few posts to catch up a bit here. For me it is clear that, the message is not always innocent in its reasoning for the facts stated and can be just as dubious as something you come up with in the National Enquirer. So next time you want to quote from the Internet please remember the picture above.

Lord's Prayer From Aramaic

The Prayer To Our Father (in the original Aramaic) Abwûn "Oh Thou, from whom the breath of life comes, d'bwaschmâja who fills all realms of sound, light and vibration. Nethkâdasch schmach May Your light be experienced in my utmost holiest. Têtê malkuthach. Your Heavenly Domain approaches. Nehwê tzevjânach aikâna d'bwaschmâja af b'arha. Let Your will come true - in the universe (all that vibrates) just as on earth (that is material and dense). Hawvlân lachma d'sûnkanân jaomâna. Give us wisdom (understanding, assistance) for our daily need, Waschboklân chaubên wachtahên aikâna daf chnân schwoken l'chaijabên. detach the fetters of faults that bind us, (karma) like we let go the guilt of others. Wela tachlân l'nesjuna Let us not be lost in superficial things (materialism, common temptations), ela patzân min bischa. but let us be freed from that what keeps us off from our tru...

Truth Or Consequencies

I wrote this essay as a comment to articles on the following site: http://www.becker-posner-blog.com/archives/2007/02/ One might not think so, but there is a relationship, between trans fat, global warming and the drunk driving issue. Unfortunately, I think that the problem has to do with education. These days in school, we are so afraid to step on someone's toes, so we avoid teaching morals in school, and why should we? Are you shocked? Read further. It has always seemed quite interesting to me that no one can come up with a simple means to start teaching community, integrity, self responsibility and the like to young children from their very first textbooks. I don't see that the word God has to be in there or in order to do that. All great religions teach a core of values that cross borders. There are values that are there in the constitution and the creation of America . By the way, a constitution created by people (whether or not you want to call it a dem...

About This Valentine's Day

Do you remember the song the age of Aquarius.....and the prediction was about when the moon is in the 7th house and Jupiter aligns with Mars. Well folks, that was this Valentine's Day, and here is my poem. BTW the question I pose, as promised a few posts back is forthcoming. Jupiter Aligns With Mars by Roseroberta The moon was in the 7 th house— on Valentine’s Day no less— a time for truth, justice, peace and love. Prometheus the fire bearer sat on the subway steps waiting for the A train to come down the tunnel where several forgotten Gods hung out. He was just thinking how to best light their fire, when the A train came blaring by, with Miles at the helm— a ghost train loaded like Pandora’s box with dreams of King and a whole generation of Xs still lost in the ruble of blackness and tunnels railroaded and derailed, and Prometheus sat on the subway stairs. And as the train passe...
