Jet,
Please don't count your blessings before the chickens hatch. As far as I heard, some experts believe that the Devil actually inhabited Flash Gordon's soul prior to his last departure from Mars, and thus made his way to Georgia unbeknownst to most humans, except for Charlie Daniels. Some of these experts have reason to believe that the bacteria that causes tooth decay when you eat too much sugar, or marzipan, is actually the current form that the Devil has taken in his attempt to infiltrate the human genome.

All we can do is pray and brush every day.

Dental floss is multi-purposeful.

You can string all sorts of things out with that thread, depending on what you've been eating.

Sinner.

I have more belief
in our systems & doings
than many I know.

When I pay for this,
the verbage comes easier,
& it makes more sense.

(I've never paid for it, only sold myself.)

Dental floss is multi-purposeful.

there is a serious lack of posts in this thread.

it might be because it's summer in the NH and people are busy exposing themselves to ultraviolet radiation

you might think the people in the SH would step up to the plate and fill in as needed, but they don't know much about baseball

Eight strikes and I'm out.

wow, I'm glad nobody's counting mine

I'm glad that
nobody's counting
syllables.

Them there five fingers.

Did someone say Dental Floss?

And one for OCM? (For the appropriate followon reference, not the actual proposal of sentiment, as it were.)

You reviewed my love?
We are going to party
once the time has passed.

(XX, TP)

not much to say now, but I can't resist making this a bit longer

I agree, and I'm running short of ideas without having much affirmation.

+1 more.

our inspirations wax and wane just like life. to expect a never ending stream of... i derailed my train of thought

I once saw a young duck trying to lay her eggs in a Perkins parking lot.

You wanted it to get longer?

tophat...duck you

one day recently we saw a duck in the bushes outside our office and then a couple days later she was sitting on a few eggs under the bush. Then we noticed the hawk which patrols our area being quite interested. All of a sudden, the hawkie swoops down and torments the duck who fights back and chases the hawk away. A few minutes later, the hawk swoops in again and is now claws hooked into mother duck...we run out to save our dearie duck and chase the hawk away...though you may appreciate the hawk thought it was the local ruler, we are significantly larger and hawk was inspired to see our point of view. We kept a vigil and after a few hours the eggs were no longer under our bush, the mommie duck had moved her brood to a more secure location. And they live happily ever after.

ps: yesterday I had two duck rolls for my appetizer and they tasted quite familiar

if you care enough to, wiki the title address of the image in question (by right-clicking the image, hitting 'properties') to find out how and why this happened.

my silence means i have nothing interesting to say, im sorry.

There is no ducking me, Nick.

We saw swans in Lake Michigan - highly unexpected for such a huge body of water.

There were ducks there, too.

Are their bills made out of wood?

It looks, too asymmetrical.

That's a right bonny bird, there

I never knew how much music this thread was missing.

For being the longest thread, there's not much covered in-depth, is there?

I believe in us.
Believing's always outside,
'less you keep it in.

The rain outside is soothing.
The scent of it comes inside.

Music:

Rain is a good thing.

Rain Reign Rein

it rains somewhat more often in Olympia WA than in Timbuktu

I know because my beloved daughter lives in Olympia where there is a strong, long tradition of progressive music and her band rvivr is quite progressive and not for the feint of heart or ear. Me being a vinyl advocate from pre-digital days, I'm heartened that they only produce themselves on vinyl. Later this year they're going on a tour and will be near you wherever you are. Here's them on youtube, live in Sacramento earlier this year, pt. 2 of 1 ...she plays the 'lectric bass

What's too many times?
What with my willingness to echo
there's not such a thing.

Too many times? To many echoes? Too much tequila? Too many limes?
I got too many toos.

Thanks for the book, OCM?.
It arrived yesterday.

West End Press — The Girl (revised edition)

I think I think too much in devotion to this thread; my thoughts are easily forgotten thereafter once issued.

Good morning, Bob.

A new page awaits.

I'm freezing in August...

who want to help me rearrange the months so that September through December become months 7-10 again?

...or we could pool our resources and head some place warmer.

I still want to rearrange the months, and perhaps rename the days of the week, so that whenever I mention "Sunday", it's not construed by some omniscient God or business accountant as me worshipping another god who controls the Sun.


If we were to keep July and August, where would you place them? Months eleven and twelve; Months One & Two?

11 and twelve I think.

No wait...

Gotta write it every day

The months could use some fresher names.

A History of the Months and the Meanings of their Names

I think January and February should be the last two months of calendar, but still retain their seasonal affectedness. Winter is the last season, so why not have the months in which it is associated with be the last months as well? See, Jan. & Feb. would essentially still be in the right place in time on the calendar, but just be months 11 and 12. Although, I do like the whole history of "Janus" that's tied into the month, so perhaps January should be either month 12 or month 1.

July and August should perhaps be renamed. (but darn my affinity to attribute the name "August" to that of flowing winds and Autumn remembrances)

Yes.

First month? July?

Those in favor?

Aye.

Still need about 1.8 billion more ayes...

Aye-Aye.

Aye.

Aye. (also a "yargh")

Ayen

Aye Seamus

aye one more

Aye-aye-aye-aye?!

How many more was that?

8 little replicants.

I was kinda thinking you might do that.

9

I only have seven ulterior personalities, none of which I really give much credence, or food to, regularly.

Well, there is NobleTalent... I give him a bit more attention then the others. And Jetstream as well. Well, if those guys count (ones that have no real "post-card" names) then I may have 11 in all; 7 personalities that hail from 7 different regions, and 4 one-shot nicknames that I use to mask them.

One of my favorites is Ocean B. Graves, born Sep. 15 1983, associated colour, orange, a Virgo, and in the Year of the Dog. I forgot what country he is from, though.

Can you guess his middle name?

Bottom?

No, but Longbottom is a perfect middle name for someone with an astounding display of mustachio'd manliness.

Beauregard.

Ahh....That's French!

So someone will need to be the harvester of ayes


---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

I'm fresh out of ayes, so here are some oi's

Well, then that'd explain the last of Graves, then.

I guess I'll attribute him as a Frenchman from now on, but from where exactly?

Morocco.
He could be a mime, as well.

I had a dream last night in which this song was featured; I think it was an homage to graduating, because the authority in my dream said this was the last day to make an impression.

it first started off as a repetition of "man on the moon"... but I thought, that's not right; so it evolved into a "man on the run", but it still lacked that permanence.
Finally, I got it right: we were a "band on the run"

Dreams sustain us.
When I see, Man In The Moon,
my mind hears this most often:

What we think
we know resembles
what we know,

But long shots can prove
we don't know sweet fucking all
about anything.

dew drop in...from Ocean City MD where I can now see the ocean, though only the top not the bottom, and it's ~90F today, clear and sunny. Count my vote to make the first day of Spring the first day of the "year"...and maybe forget about "months" though I like the historical connections. We could have the 3rd of Spring...the 2nd of Autumn, etc.

I'm about ready to head into the ocean, though no surf board since the waves here at this time of year are not worth the effort, though there are always a few die-hards out there on theirs having a nice little ride.

Random image.
Just for fun.

Not random at all!!! Not even one minute ago, I was re-evaluating my comment in roachboy's blog, and in the first five words, it describes what is now seen above!

If only I could use these powers for good.

That puts me in mind of this:

You've noticed that rocks don't move of their own accordions?

You do.

Greater good.

I would not speak of my own accordion

I haven't seen or heard the word "buzzworthy" in at least seven years, or the better part of this decade.

Turn the page.

Go buzzardly - It's fun.

I was four minutes late.

Or you were early.

Either way, I need a pocketwatch.

There's this song by the Buzzcocks...

This shall be the slowest day ever

Wodin is me.

Go Norse young man,
Go Norse!

Westward son... what song is this from?

All I can think of is 'Westward Wind' something....

Maybe it was "wayward son"

That would be a plains state of Kansas.

so it is



sorry for the delay, I was watching a car outside the window for seven minutes, deciding whether or not I saw it there at all.

I have to put my brave face on and venture out of doors.
A family member needs help with house-cleaning.

Later.
Go wild or something.

When I fail to please,
tell me my manners are bad,
ordeal otherwise.

No setting a bad example, now...

I don't have time for sloth.

Exhilarated
rhymes with exhausted, honey?
I talked to your mom.

Love.

This handheld device
is still misbehaving me
so this is what gives.

Ordeals.

One could hardly live
here for such a long time &
fail to think some more.

It's the sky!
