Cosmic Law…

by @ 9:11 pm. Filed under quotes

“Like attracts like. Just be who you are, calm and clear and bright. Automatically, as we shine who we are, asking ourselves every minute is this what I really want to do, doing it only when we answer yes, automatically that turns away those who have nothing to learn from who we are and attracts those who do, and from whom we have to learn, as well.”

  – Richard Bach “Illusions”

Young Blonde…

by @ 10:55 pm. Filed under humour

“Mrs. O’Callahan instructed the artist painting her portrait to add to it a gold bracelet on each of her wrists, a strand of pearls around her neck, ruby earrings, and a diamond tiara.

The artist pointed out that would be tantamount to lying.

Said Mrs. O’Callahan, “Look, my husband’s running around with a young blonde. After I die, I want her to go crazy looking for the jewelry.”

Gas Prices

by @ 10:24 am. Filed under general

This is a good article about one of the reasons we are seeing the prices we are seeing:

This is a map of the country and the various gas prices…

My one hope with the outrageously high fuel prices (yes Europe… I know how high it has been for you and for how long… I remember being shocked to death when I was in London and Koln back in 2000)  is that maybe, just maybe, this will push the general public into thinking more about alternate renewable energy forms. I don’t think we need to dump fossil fuels completely, but removing our absolute dependence on them would be great.

Gifts…

by @ 10:24 am. Filed under quotes

There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in its hands.

You seek problems because you need their gifts.

Selfish…

by @ 10:23 am. Filed under quotes

Anybody who’s ever mattered, anybody who’s ever been happy, anybody who’s ever given any gift into the world has been a divinely selfish soul, living for his own best interest. No exceptions.

joe says:
  I was sure when I first told you

joe says:
  But I don’t put past some evil ass hack you found that is completely and utterly unsupported

joe says:
  I have strong faith in your ability to find things that you aren’t supposed to be able to do

There’s only one person we have to answer to, of course, and that is…

…ourselves.

Even though it was a rainy day I love this picture…

by @ 1:17 am. Filed under house stuff

I took this shot after doing the cleanup work last Saturday/Sunday. It is about 650 feet back from the road (350 from the house) and the property goes back about another 1000 feet behind where I took the picture and all you can hear are birds and frogs and fish jumping in the pond. The road is barely visible and the pond is extremely relaxing. I have to admit I am extremely lucky to have this. Even better… Wireless from my house works all the way out by the pond so I need to get some more picnic tables and set them up out there so I can enjoy even more how lucky I am. This evening the stars were crystal clear and the moon was out and looking stunning.
