    Song of the moment

    I'm in love with nice old ladies.. yet another fine evening.. Kate is definitely old. Born before me.. She probably went to Woodstock, but isn't claiming it..

    Song of the moment

    If you can sort through a lot of the sexual inuendo this is pretty good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCUnzcUMJHc&feature=related
  3. Nothing that I've seen in the last ten years is believable either. Maybe only to me.. OH... I remember something. The little book that we were supposed to read before the advanced class.. the challenging counterfiet(?). Gasson claimed to be part of Seances where the "possessed" spoke in a known language.. say German, and have actual conservations with the participants of the "fellowship".. I don't have the book anymore. Anyone else remember it? I'm thinking.. either the claim was false, or spiritualists were able to do something that christians seemingly are not able to do. Or maybe it was just trickery..
  4. wierwille, being, or becoming an older man pretty much ran off many of the "elders" of his early church, or did he not? My impression is that he did.. giving him unbridled "ownership" of the flock.. so to speak.
  5. The troubling part.. to me is, in the *ministry* those supposedly set in charge did not deserve respect even to begin with.. including myself when I was *only* a humble twig coordinator.
  6. Oh yes.. just one other thing. The difference between odd and even is just only one single solitary digit.. or in advanced thought.. the remainder after dividing by two.
  7. Thanks for the compliment friend..
  8. If it makes any difference here.. deleted, modified, or otherwise. That is why I could not vote for the newcomer.. he was just, plain, purely, a bully. In early life, and in recent life.. sometimes I didn't have even a vote on this..
  9. It's only fiction, or is it.. the Centauran shows up.. likes the conflict.. he only will stir the pot.. as long as Death is involved.. *they* glory in death.. or in unbridled competition which ends in death.. the Gods are.. bullies.
  10. If you don't mind me saying.. is there at least the distinct possibility.. that there is an alien intelligence involved in all of this, pitting one party against the other.. likes to work over the ant hills, likes to see the ants go to war.. NOOO. Not you raf.. you are a seeker of truth. At least I hope.. myself.. I've lost far more wars than you have. "god is Green". Fine, I agree.. "no, he is pink.." Fine. Somehow we can get pink out of green.. I'll do my best to try to figure it out.. "no.. he's Blue".. fine.. Blue, as to what? Sad? Close to ultra-violet.. what? Is that it? No.. red.. some souls here think they can protect themselves with the color red.. and.. thank you, as a moderator, for allowing "weird" posts. I've seen some other threads very creatively revised in former years.. :)

    Another weird dream...

    In the conventional sense my dad was saved, a christian. He was a participating member in the Methodist church in my home town.. the republican party.. he was a free mason.. did everything he could for the community. at the end, even though I was young, naive.. twelve years old.. I had the impression that he felt that somehow he was betrayed.. now comes the weird dream. It's all a mess.. he's taking a nice nap.. maybe now it is up to me to clean up the mess.. I can't say that he didn't try.
  12. the one speaking, not understanding what is spoken.. this makes the perfect mathematical game.. I mean, outsiders looking for a pattern of sorts..
  13. give me a few moments, friend.. :) Quite intensive..
  14. my dad was in it.. he died in 1968 things were really screwed up, i.e. dirty. I went ahead and cleaned it up, the best I could.. he was sleeping. And that was cool.. in the dream I thought.. rest on a few minutes.. don't worry about this frigging mess.. maybe it means something, or everything, I dunno. it's the only dream or recent impression that involved him.. any thoughts or impressions minus way speak here? :)
  15. The bean counters seem to prevail here.. I won't give them a capital b or c.
  16. Kinds of tongues. Different kinds of tongues.. the greek word was heteros.. different, or of a distinct kind.. wierwillian advocates demand heteros to mean something it very well may have not meant.. it really is on topic, as you wish. :)
  17. allos and heteros. Heteros tongues.. is there really a distinction between what they call simply different, by modern interpretation (allos)
  18. anybody know how these words .. sailed into modern usage? I mean current usage.. I think there is a current distinction between Chairos and Kronos.
  19. I dunno.. to make such a distinction, one would almost have to time travel back to ancient Greece, learn the language.. modern analysis is fine.. but limited I think.. sometimes it looks for a pattern that is simply not there..
  20. Tonight might be a good night for me to put on Brain Salad Surgery, plug in the headphones.. Roll up, roll up, roll up, see The Show....... I hope the show does not end up charging admission to see a single blade of grass..
  21. seems to be the counting of the votes. Let's keep this *political* discussion "open" and not "political".. after a day or so it will die anyway. just a few observations. It's really fascinating. The media has sprung to life.. I see "correspondents" that I haven't seen for over half a year.. maybe not even for four years.. I don't see the real attraction here. Viewers of the proceedings.. almost seem addicted.. almost like watching a rising and diminishing balance on a slot machine at the local casino.. the results go blue hurray! (or *bummer*, depending on your opinion..) then the results go red.. hurray!! (or bummer, depending on your opinion..) Personally, I wouldn't mind having to wait two or three weeks to hear the results.
  22. I dunno. I don't "despise prophecies" or some such.. it's just.. positive, continuously repeated words of affirmation do not necessarily equal prophecy..
  23. I think it just produces modern nuttiness. I'm not saying nuttiness is technically *wrong* or anything.. there are reasons I will not go anywhere within earshot of an offshoot's Sunday Night Service or some such.. it's always the SAME. Even the "manifestations".. they never change.. they are always the same.. same useless drivel. Same "positive" interpretations and words of "prophecy".. modern, phony counterfeit practice seems to produce the same result, one time after another.. fine if that is your cup of tea. I've graduated to another level of nuttiness..

    November Sweepstakes

    Unofficial results for KB8PGW: Band QSO's Points 160 0 0 80 36 72 40 89 178 20 57 114 15 25 50 10 7 14 ---------------------- Total 214 428 X 61 Multipliers = 26,108. The score may be slightly less, because with modern computer log checking. Almost every error in exchanging a report will be found and deleted from the final score. Still, for less than five watts output and a very crummy antenna, the score might be quite an accomplishment.. The bands were amazingly crowded from one end to the other, stations calling on top of each other, and the contest was Morse Code ONLY. Who says Morse is dead? I missed 20 sections this time. Some years there is no one at all operating in a particular section. So no clean sweep mug for me.. I could hear a station in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Hawaii, but they could not hear me. No Alberta Canada, or Northwest Territories, or Saskatchewan. No stations heard in Alaska either.
