Bitches got to go

"Whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believed in me, it were better for him that millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea." Matthew 18:6 ...I'm sure Matt meant he or she, but he was mired in bibliotalk.

I was born a bibliophile.

I have an idea, but I don't understand it.

The idea will come to you,
if you play hard to get.

My belief exceeds
the nonsense we're fed
and believes some more.

(You're right about thinking at it sideways.)

I should try upside down also...
that might be interesting...

Fecal Matters?...Commode Commandos?...Hidden Assets?...at least these municipal sanitation departments have a sense of humor about their work:

What happens after you flush? RI offers a new tour during the first annual Rhode Island Water Infrastructure Month. As part of the festivities, the Narragansett wastewater operators team "Fecal Matters" will compete in a national latrine-treating skills contest in Chicago against last year's champions, the Rocky Mountain "Commode Commandos".


This October will mark the first annual celebration of "Rhode Island Water Infrastructure Month", a public outreach initiative that seeks to inform the public, elected officials, business leaders, and the media about the critical role that our water infrastructure plays in protecting public health and promoting economic prosperity here in Rhode Island. Key issues to be addressed during this month include:
-The wide range of agencies, initiatives, and individuals who work to keep our water flowing as cost-effectively as possible
-The success stories at the municipal and state levels that have helped protect public health and the environment
-The role of government (state and local) in protecting and improving our water infrastructure resources and the strong coordination among agencies that exists here in Rhode Island
-Current project needs and the critical funding gaps that exist for water infrastructure improvements

Something overfilled
will probably overflow
if left unemptied.

The Universe provides, divides, coincides,

Today we are experiencing autumn in California. The season came up suddenly. One day it was 95, the next it was 54.

Here is a view of California's autumn by artist Eva Szorc.

I stumbled upon the image through a Google search of "California Autumn". It seemed the most fitting of the images presented.

Beautiful paintings

he's a packing peanut too.

You're certain that you're a packing peanut and not a packing cashew?

I am the nuttiest boring eccentric you will ever meet.

Thy fleeting
provides all the wind
that drives me.

"I break wind in your general direction."

you break wind
in all directions,
it don't smell.

That is why I don't even bother to say," excuse me."

As well you shouldn't:
"No harm, no foul", as some say.
I love your farting.

It has many tones pitches...and even rhythm if I concentrate.

But can you produce the scent of apricot parfait?

I know your only asking, darling, your not tasking me.


XXXX OOOO

Your answers,
if unforthcoming,
still please me.

I need to kiss you all along your arm, Mortisha...you spoke French.

this is our friend Tophat's post #19400 in the word association thread, which I find fun, but I want this thread to win the "longest" competition, so I'm not posting in that thread anymore ...so here's my reply:

What did Tennessee?

...why, I don't know. Perhaps it was a bunny.

No... but it was the same thing Arkansas.

...well then, what was it?

They saw Mississippi.

What did Delaware, ottopilot?

A New Jersey.

BadNick, please tel Dela I thought that was a smart idea. It's been getting a bit chilly lately.

Dear Dela,

you'll never guess who I saw posting in the word association thread, our deadly competitor:

I haven't posted in Word Association for some time now,
mostly because I find the ABC one more fun to play.


Sorry to change the subject so radically,
but I am so pleased that I remembered the name of a childrens book I read many years ago.

Our small library has a copy available and I am looking forward to reading it tonight.

Longest Wave On The Planet
Love to surf? Then you have to visit Brazil to surf the longest wave on the planet Earth called Pororoca. Between February and March Atlantic ocean tides generate waves up to 12 feet high which can last for over half an hour. Pororoca in indigenous Tupi language means \"great destructive noise\" and it destroys everything in its path with the speed of 10 to 15 miles (16 to 24 km) per hour.

" "Sister, I'm sure glad I didn't try your temper," Billy said, attempting to joke.
"Where's the good in you, Billy?" Sister Blandina asked. "I seemed to see it once. I wish I could see it now."
Billy just shook his head. He didn't expect to answer the question, and in a moment, Sister Blandina turned, tears on her cheeks, and left."

BadNick,
I need some trees like that in my life.

gg, please go visit a beautiful arboretum and report back.

I'm not sure where 805 is, but this is UC Davis Arboretum...are you near there?:

Bounteous being
will never reconsider
nor does it have to

The trees are at full color here in wisconsin.

I wish I could spray them all with some sort of fixative,
to enjoy the Fall show a little longer.

I am fortunate to have a beautiful view of a small forest,
where I sit and paint and daydream....

I can daydream for the LONGEST whiles,
but i feel it is never a waste of time.

weeeeeeeeeeeeeee.wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

If in this instant
I could still pretend unfair:
I ain't got any.

2 more till the end

This is the end my friend

Packages, alone,
are all we have been given
and we'll carry on.

awesome!

I'm feeling a bit palindromey today: Lager, sir, is regal.

Serving up nothing else but affected cryptic,
turns all food yellow.

I can still do a fair job of re-creating the sound of a mourning dove,
with my hands.

If the instances
provided by others
fail to satisfy,

& anger
won't become thinking
when it's not,

Some reconsideration
may soon be the order of the day;
I'm not qualified to say.

ps: hey guys, what happened to your romper room thread? ...if I may ask.

its 2 long.

Today's sunrise was so beautiful,
you could see the brightly colored leaves through a thick foggy sunlit mist.
The fog cleared about a half hour later.

As our earth tilts this time of year, (where I live)
the angle of the sun throws increasingly longer shadows.

I remember a beautiful picture BadNick posted some time ago,
of the sun..a time lapsed image..where it rose and set,
just above the horizon. I am going back to look for it now.

Peace.

Wu-Tang killa bees on the swarm.

a riddle....

went for a dive in Long Valley, then over the Short Hills, and up past a Fair Lawn. I did it all in a few short hours. What state am I in?

^ same as "what did Delaware?" ans.:

New Jersey ...is it cheating that I live in PA and have been through that area many times?

ring,
is it this pic of the sunrise/sunset?

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...LongestDay.jpg

...or another one I posted was from Antarctica where the sun never dipped below the horizon during the Antarctic Summer...which I would have probably found at one of these two scientific research sites:

Concordia Base - Scientific Research on High Antartic Plateau - DOME C 75° S 123° E
JACARA

found this other one I thought you might be referring to...the Antarctic never sunrise or sunset

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...cs/SunRun_.jpg

Ambidextrosexual,
I feel qualified to say:
We might all be very wrong

(Hell, it ain't even haiku)

It was that last Antarctic image...thanks Nick.

This thread
ain't deep-frozen yet,
or is it?

Perspective is a cool word.

Let's pretend I have some more now: Pete & I have been discussing those things which are not ladybugs.

When the two threads decided to move in together, they both agreed to have no strings attached.

that is aweesome!

This is going to be a LONG Monday for me...though not the longest ever.

actually, every Monday is exactly the same length....TOO LONG!

Time does appear to go by more quickly as we get older.

A great way to make time seem longer,
is to get into a staring contest with the clock.

I remember when
I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that phase
Even your emotions had an echo
And so much space
Hmm mmmm
And when you're out there
Without care
Yeah I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much
Mmm

Does that make me crazy (x3)
Probably

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice
Thats my only advice
Hmm
Come on now
Who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are
Ha ha ha!
Bless your soul
You really think you're in control
Well

I think you're crazy (x3)
Just like me

My heros had the heart, to put their lives out on the limb
And all I remember, is thinking I want to be like them
Hmm mmm
Ever since I was little
Ever since I was little it looked like fun
And its no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

But maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

crap! it already 10:44

This is a good thing if you're working until 6 PM.

One way I think of how/why time seems to pass more rapidly as we get older:

When you are say 8 years old...one year is 12.5% of your life to that point, which is a very significant proportion so it seems like a "long" time to you.

When you are say 60 years old...one year is 1.7% of your life to that point, so it seems like a pretty short additional period.

Of course this assumes you are not travelling at the speed of light or holding a flashlight pointing into your eyes.

The sun is so bright this morning,
I squinted only twice before the corners of my eyes became wet.


Bowie....
Oh yeah
Mm
Still dont know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets and
Every time I thought Id got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But Ive never caught a glimpse
Of how the others must see the faker
Im much too fast to take that test

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Dont want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I cant trace time

I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
So the days float through my eyes
But stil the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
Theyre quite aware of what theyre going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Dont tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Wheres your shame
Youve left us up to our necks in it
Time may change me
But you cant trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Ah changes are taking the pace Im going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Oh, look out you rock n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Pretty soon now youre gonna get a little older
Time may change me
But I cant trace time
I said that time may change me
But I cant trace time

Changes, occurring,
we really cannot deny;
we'll rely on them.

Sleep helps knit the raveled sleeve of care.

Yes it does.

sleeves that tend to stay a bit thread-bare is the curse of narcolepsy
