Opening Up a Fifth Collum

I don't even know for sure what a "fifth collum" is in the military, but the term seems to "work" here.  I'd like to start off this blog by talking about the link I just read from Judy featuring an interview with Donald Trump, and yes I just snagged the photo.  I anticipate that this will be a lengthly posting if I incorporate all the stuff going through my mind at breakfast, when I get so many of my posting ideas, such that I'm going to have to mentally edit myself.  I guess maybe that's what Rush Limbaugh may be referring to when he says "I'm doing the show with half my brain tied behind my back". "Do you anticipate a lengthly cross examination of this witness"  "Then I suggest we ajourn till after lunch".  Which is just what I did.  So I used those minutes to catch the rest of the Bill Handel show and KFI 11:00 news.  We had fruit salad for lunch with the trademark yellow cake for desert we always have with it.  Leo Le Port is on now with Scott Wilkinson.

Sometimes I find myself having to re-think what I thought were fixed positions for me.  It's a fact that the President's reelection come November is highly in doubt now.  No President since Jimmy Carter  has been in this much political trouble months before a presidential election.  You know I still respect Donald Trump.  I think the man is a whole lot smarter than the media gives him credit for, kind of in the tradition of Dan Quayle, where I developed the same impression.  As such I'll give credence to his oppinions that I would not give to lesser people on the right.  There are several issues with which we are in agreement.  For one we are both against Obama Care and believe that the plan is a major jobs killer.  Next I agree with Trump, as well as Pat, that we need to get tough with China on certain issues such as manipulation of their currencies and their ripping off of US Technology.  I don't know is the United States is exactly a "laughing stock" but it was pointed out for one that our airports have become substandard compared with the rest of the world.  As to this matter of inspiring confidence in the economy it opens up kind of a basic philosophical question everyone has to answer when they go to the polls.  Should be vote for a guy who does NOT have the confidence of the American people and whom the corporations don't trust, for whatever reason and as such will not hire and will not lend.  And this may be even deliberate to make the President look bad.  And so come election night will we have the Gingrich miracle where suddenly people want to spend and invest because they have now put a man in office whom they have confidence in, and therefore have rediscovered that illusive sense of "economic certainty"?  As to the matter of energy there was some woman from Kansas talking about oil wells and energy.  The President did not say he opposed the Canadian oil pipe line.  And the President, much as Trump has suggested, has come out in favor of clean coal.  Trumps out that the Chinese use "dirty coal" with no attempt whatsoever to clean it up.  As to Trump's remarks about Bane Capital- - I dialed away at that point.  You can't agree with everything.  KNX 1070 had Obama's message at 7:06 and he wrapped himself in the flag as expected.  But just because playing the Patriotism card works for a Republican- - don't just think anybody can get away with it.  It smacks too much of Michael Dukakis driving around in a Tank.  It's just not an image that "works".  We all know that the driving force behind most of the hostility to Obama is the N word.  To paraphrase Rush Limbaugh only a little out of context "It's ALL about Race!" and all the other oppinions are rationalizations to bolster that driving sentament.

After this maybe at 8:15 I played Anthology CD number five, the White album, in its entirety, which runs about 74 minutes.  There is so much good accoustic guitar stuff on that album by both John and Paul, plus a lot of lyrical adlibs where the artist appears to be kibbitzing his own material.  As you know "Not Guilty" is the most under-rated Beatle song of all time.  Sexy Sadie is missing the most important, key instrument in this version.  ("Oh you mean like trying to have sex without a penis?)  Thank you, Kurt for that adlib.  I refer to the piano, of course.  But the guitar work in that song is original and creative and the singing is actually better with a more "lilting" quality.  We have Cry Baby Cry - - which has always reminded me of the "geshtaldt" of "After All" by David Bowie, which is one of the truely great songs of our time and whose importance and message actually transcends the words.  Ringo's drummer is clearer in songs like "Don't pass me by".  And we have that little line of "There were a few irregularities".  In that mid 1976 thing we did a year ago, watch for the hidden musical message in that "irregularities' line where John plays the part of Pete Richards and Paul plays the part of GOD - - which of course stands for "giving out directions".

Then I went on computer and decided to check more in my old Firefox links that I just imported into Google.  Jay Leno was doing Mustangs in his garage.  Of course once he interviewed my brother on his program as an "expert" in a certain kind of car, and this car has a fan club or something that's incorporated in Al's E mail address, as you may know.  So maybe that's why I decided to leave his picture out of that - -  posting.  Of course I remember once in October or so of 1964 when me and Mark Quakendoll and some other guy  - - ("Do You mean Ringo?")  No, Kurt.  I don't remember the other person.  And someone said "We can argue about the merits of Chrysler Corp verses Chevy, but we can all agree that Ford sucks.  As I remember this group had a general concencus that Goldwater pretty much sucked as a Presidential candidate too, and Johnson was the way to go.

I looked up Weather underground and was blown away with all their various maps.  I had forgotten how good they were- - and colorful.  It seems there is a jet streme - - that goes from here to Miniapolis, and a wind has kind of kicked up just now after lunch.  It seems the heat wave was detained, just like that happy couple in The Heiress was "detained" on their way to see the Reverent Lispenard to get married.  They also had "astronomical" stuff like sun and moon and phases.  I then looked at "Sheets" and clicked on the right thing to see the chard with the positions of planets and even which House of the Zodiac they were in and right ascension and declanation and all of that.

Here's a late insertion.  On this date in history in 1973 "Frankenstein" by Edger Winter, became the number one song on the charts.  This song is featured in "Don't Take me Alive" one of our early classic Rock Anthologies.  I thought the song was two or three months earlier than that.  They say that the Rolling Stones played "Last Time" in Shindig on this date in 1965.  Of course it is a historic period right now because a private space craft is transporting US goods to the Orbital Space Station.  It's honestly something I thought would never happen.  I should be glad that private industry now finds Space Travel commercially feasable.  I guess my problem is that I still don't entirely believe it.

We're actually getting through this posting more quickly than anticipated.  As you know in April of 2008 there is that whole Romulan - Ionian connection stuff, or as some might call it the "Nuclear option".  As in the case of Bush and congress it's a way to "get things done quickly you'd like to accomplish" but you run the risk of blowing up the whole system in the process.  It's like Captain Piccard and that guy who knew the future in that one episode about the Planet that needed a "procedure" that would cure all of its climate woes- - if it didn't destroy the whole planet first.  Captain Piccard made that speech of "I don't give a damn about the Future- - I'm living in the here and now and I have to make a decision.  And you know - - I Choose to Try".  And he succeeded.  Anyhow when Kurt Cobain first became a Romulan he probably felt lucky not to have landed himself in Hell for blowing his brains out with a shot gun.  Then he met Bones, who was the head hauncho and "The rule maker around here".  The first thing I arrived here I met with Hilda in the office, and she was the one who gave me a list of house rules to sign.  Of course in time Jim Cooper supplanted Pete Richards as The Rule maker" in my circle of friends.  This pretty much worked to my advantage.  Jim was also known as "The Namer" by others.  And he's the one famous for the joke about the baseball umpires that ends with "They ARE what I CALL them" kind of like Adam in the Garden of Eden.  When I was a kid growing up there was a guy named Brian who was pretty much accepted as "The Rule Maker" in ball games we played in the street, even though he wasn't the oldest kid.  It takes a certain tallent to be a leader.  Of course come about May first 1994 a few weeks later John Lennon appeared after a mystery period of about twenty months absence.  One of the last recordings me made was Bowie's song 'I Pray - - OLE", with both vocals and excellent guitar work.  It has HIT written all over it.  And later he met Dennis Wilson.  Now - - kind of in a strange reversal- - it's actually Kurt Cobain who relays messages or things I might need to know from Dennis.  Of course John proved a much more invaluable mentor for Kurt than Stu, who he didn't see much at all after that.

I wanted to say just a bit more about that "Inside - out" space thing.  Of course John Lennon has that song lyric of "Your inside is out - - and your outside is in".  So normally we are looking IN at others from the Outside- - rather than being in the Inside looking OUT.   So to speak.  There is a micro verse macro saga playing itself out here too.  When people say "you need to put this in perspective" they most often mean "You need to put this OUT of perspective".  In other words look at the broad sweep - -the big picture- - rather than just your OWN point of view.  I would like to recomment that occasionally the other person might just try looking at the issue from YOUR point of view.  I wanted to say a little more about the hour glass Sand.  The Sand accumulates of course.  The EGO of a person is free to Expand all it wants to upward as part of his 76% right to contentment in life.  Remember the sand accumulates over a person's whole life.  It's his "past experiances" and once we have "experiance' on something our EGO shrinks because "We realize what we don't know".  This is why I said that if Organized Religion were a Person- - the Future would be the thing it most dreaded because it's the thing that's "slowly taking away from its ego" because "People are too Experianced to fall for the same old thing again.  People should use their brains as a cameral lens to focus on that THING that "God Created them to BE" she show THAT to the World.  (Selah)   I think this will be the top posting for this blog for the next couple months or so.  Over and out.

Which Side is your Bread Buttered On?

Sometimes things really are the darkest right before you see that perverbial "light at the end of the tunnel".  I'm switching out photos because the other was too distracting, and my opening joke line might well have fallen a little flat on insufficiently unschooled readers.  I think Lexi Carver needs a chorus of "Happy, Happy - Joy, Joy" right about now.  I was also going to use our file photo of Lexi for six years ago but then I thought "Maybe I've used it already".  This is a question we all have to answer whether we'll even admit it to ourselves or not.  Of course then again there is the old adage of "Why does your toast always seem to land buttered side down?"  Maybe it has something to do with physic or something.  Around here this is supposed to be a "hospital setting".  But I wouldn't let news people in here.  Besides people dropping like flies like our own version of "Hospital" or something, we have not only patients picking up their own dropped medication, but the staff will pick up the dropped pill for you and hand it to you.  That wouldn't be so bad since the floors are mopped regularly.  But the thing is they are mopped with dirty water.  Often the floors are dirtier AFTER being mopped up than before.  As to that janator in the girl's restroom getting toilet water to do the job- - that would be a step up in cleanliness around here.  But my oppertunity is that- - people need to develop their imune systems like I have.  I'm not worried.  I've built up a tollerance to the local germs.  But my primary question is the whole thing about personal bias dictating which side of an issue you are going to "break" on, to use a surfing term.  Take the whole Wall Street thing.  By the way as I told Bill, I think there used to be an actual Wall along Wall Street - - and in exact reverse from Anaheim, in NY the streets run east and west and the "Avenues" run north and south, and are usually longer, such as Madison Avenue or Fifty Avenue. I guess 59th street other than being a Simon and Garfunkle song is also the southern border of Central Park.  "Enough of the geography lesson already!"  Let's take the whole Lehman Brothers deboccle of September of 2008 they discussed on Sixty Minutes.  I told you that the financial mismanagement and fraud was carried out right under the noses of investigators from the Bush Administration.  Now there is this Ed Schultz fill in that KPOJ has a lot on who has a Clinton clone accent- - and I guess he cops to being an attorney for people who sue Wall Street.  Which is fine because from another source I heard that Att Gen Holder used to be a Reagan appointee for a post, and used to serve as an attorney Defending these Wall Street manipulators and crooks.  It is pointed out- - you didn't have to wait for the answer- - that the answer to the posed question of "Who has gone to jail for the disasters of 2008- - or who has even been even indicted for the attrocities of 2008- - - the answer is "No one".  Just play that "crickets" sound card you have on file at this point.  I did a posting a while back saying "This President has been softer on Wall Street than any other President, and Obama even makes the Bush administration look better by comparrison".    But this personal bias carries over into personal lives.  For instance today Will Horton was trying to get all high and mighty over some moral issue involving his mother.  And he was ready to draw that perperbial line in the sand for E J Di Mira.  It's this whole "Nobody can be my friend unless they personally agree with me on this issue".  Will doesn't have the "Moral Capital" to make that judgement. He NEEDS E J too much.  People learn quickly which side their bread is buttered on.  For instance with Proposition 29 I have done a flip flop.  The local lady host came out against Proposition 29 and her callers thought she was some traitor to the left.  The funny thins all of those Callers were making the Same Arguments I myself Would have made a week ago.  But since I have "seen the light" in the form of green dollar signs.  I started doing the math and figured I'd be paying the government an additional two hundred dollars a year for cancer research.  Suddenly I'm saying "I"m generous but not THAT generous".  How is a person of my means justified in GIVING two hundred dollars in one year to ANY charity?  It makes no sense.  When you add to this that the terms of this Proposition cannot be altered for fifteen years.  Each and every Flaw is nailed down and locked in for 15 years.  Period.  And by the way it IS "Out of state jobs".  Why not produce jobs IN California is you're going to do it?  And also just by the way and Judy may have made this point "Not buying a product hurts the economy of California.  It hurts the tobacco companies but it also hurts the local store, and also will hurt others if I decide NOT to by another product because I need THAT money for cigarettes.  Think about it.

I would like to thank Sarah for giving me a ride to the bank today.  I got to see the new van even if it happens to be a rental for now.  As you know we were robbed a few weeks ago, and the cops have the suspects face on file but still haven't nailed him.  Unless you've heard more recent news.  It actually saved me from calling up Bill Gunderson for a ride. ("You're back to using the alias again, I see")  Yeah and as you know relations between me and Bill Gunderson have been a little ragged and our last exchange didn't go well, and I'd just as soon extend the "cooling off" period for as long as possible.  I could call Bobby Hayden or someone or wait till Saturday.  As you know Pete Richards (another revived alias) must have told Henry and Bobby Hayden about my "acholic mishap" back on June first of 2001.  It was a scenario that played itself out right out of the lyrics of a Bob Dylan song.  A man collapses in the gutter and just lays there till someone calls the cops.  Relations between me and Henry were still awkward.  But with Bobby- - his act of reaching out to me is appreciated.  I think he gave me some book on "Why Aocholics Anonamus Doesn't Work" or something.  And he gave me that pack of typing paper so I could use it to write down my thoughts like Don Burnum or somebody.  Now I use the pages- - I cut sheets up into quarters and use them to make out the laundry list each week for Denise.  Me and Bobby had good relations again for quite a number of years - - and then we drifted apart - - again, and it is probably more my fault than his.  But I wouldn't want our "first contact" consisting of my asking him for a favor, like being driven to the bank.  Richard says, "It's less than four miles.  Why don't you just walk the distance".  I don't know how he does it- - but I'm just not into doing an over seven mile round trip for only a few dollars in cash.

In soap land- - there are a lot of what I'd call "constructive' is not theraputic conversations.  Nicole is showing that she can indeed be a friend to Carrie, despite a natural "interest" in NOT being her friend, which would serve her own Ego interests better.  But she chose to rise above these.  I wish a lot of Politicians would go thow and do likewise.  Forget "which side their bread is buttered on" and go and Do the Right Thing.  You saw it again with Kate Roberts and Samantha.  Kate decided to cut Samantha a little slack and absorb her hostility- - for the better good of the relationship.  Her love for her grandchildren outweighs personal problems she has with her ex daughter in law.  And you see it again with E J and Will Horton.  E J decided to confide in Will that he has parental relation problems of his own, and maybe Will should cut his mother a little slack.  I'm not normally on Samantha's side but in this case I am because I know Exactly how she feels and I can't think but what I'd do exactly what she did, when confronted with the news that my oldest Son was Gay.  I'd be fit to be tied.  And I'm not going through all the other problems in my life Sammy is going through.  Friendship is important.  People need a friend.  E J is wise enough to know that Will needs a friend.  Someone who is just a little removed from the situation and whom he can trust.  I think it's much better to be honest with someone you can be trust and cagy around a person you can't - - rather than it being the other way around.  There came that point in my life around January 1974 though I'd be hard pressed to put a date on it- - that my chief "source of income" was no longer my own parents.  I was dependent on a source "Not Them" from then on- - and never again would I have to be "dependant' to the extent I had been as a youth growing up, on them.  Though even now I feel a certain ammount of "economic pressure" to act in a certain way and hold certain oppinions about certain things.  I think Catholic Church money was instrumental in"molding" Catholic theology into what it is today, but that's another story.

This has been a different kind of posting- - on the idea of loyalty and friendship and trust.  But sometimes it's even necessary to say "Good bye' to loyal trusted friends- - as in the case of a terminal illness.  Then you have "The long good-byes" like Lexi is doing now with all of her friends.  After such a "fulfilling day" of family portrates and remonicing - - and all, she now says "I think I'm going to go into the bedroom and lie down a moment".  Why did I suddenly get Deja Vu of Elvis telling Ginger that fateful late morning, "I think I'm going into the bathroom to read a little".  And the very last thing anybody said to Elvis was her response, "Just don't fall asleep".  One concept in that posting about "concave space" is that "the other side" could refer to a relation in Mass.  That is This Side of the Ether things are Heavier than Ether- - but on the other side things are "lighter" than Ether.  As in the case of Kurtosis in statistics, some things are relative and people haven't yet settled on a fix definition of Kurtosis.  I got used to the Wolframalpha.com one - - but Excel uses a different calculation.  As I may have told you "not all flat liners are born equal" in Wolfram, but in Excel they are.  So what's a body to do?  We call something "ZERO" because it's our frame of reference and even Einstain says "What constitutes a Stationary point is entirely relative".  So it is with atnosphere.  We don't feel it usually or see it usually- - but still it is a transcendant force all around us.  So it is with Ether.  They just called a monthly Meeting and it's approaching three o clock.  I think I'm going to have a cigarette now and join them.  When I got up I did not have that option.  You know- - when you come down to it the mechanics of the eye is a two dimensional affair.  Our retenas are primarily two dimensional.  So that the third dimension is more of an inferred or learned one- - rather than an intrinsic part of our reception apperatus.  It's kind of like linear logic is how a Computer relates even though other forms may be more "efficient' in terms of speed.  Maybe we don't have God's 2012 production model but are working off "an earlier version" right now.  But the bottom line is that people are intrigued with the notion of "sides".  There is THIS side and THAT side- - and people polarize around either one or the other, as in this election year process.  But on a Rush album- - the idea is broached somewhere along the line that perhaps each side should try a little harder to see the other's point of View.

Chris Cartrage Interviews Guy Owens

"I've been the Mountain - - to See For Myself - - Been the Mountain"

"So all you chicken sucking mother trucking people out there better realize that concave space we theorized about in our last posting may just turn out to be a really Big F- - - ing Deal Someday!"

"Hi Beatle peoples - - love these goon shows!"

Chris: We have a special guest today on Breakfast with the Beatles, renound blogger Guy Owens, who is here as a self appointed expert on the Beatles.   Guy:  It's nice to be here, Chris.  Chris:  So is Guy Owens your real name?  Guy:  Yes it is.  Chris:  I've heard a roomer your real name is either Gary Owens or perhaps Gary Johnson.  Guy:  No, Gary Johnson is my first cousin's second husband.  Chris:  Are you sure you don't mean your second cousin's first husband?  Guy:  No, I don't.  Chris:  I was just playing with you.  So has Owens your family name.  Guy:  Well you really don't deserve an answer to that.  I'm not President Obama to have to answer questions like that and you don't look like one of those right wing tea tottlers, if you know what I mean.  Chris:  At least not that kind of tea.  (both laugh)  Guy continues.  No, Martin Owens was my adopted grandfather's name who died in an industrial accident in an oil field before I war born.  He's always been a man I admired, that's all.  I legally had my name changed.  Chris:  OK I see.  So is your family last name Miller?  Guy:  It used to be four or five generations ago and I'm a little confused myself as to what happened.  Chris:  Let's go to why you are here.  First of all who is your favorite Beatle?  Guy:  Well, George Harrison is the most under-rated Beatle, though I must admit I have never bought the All Things Must Pass album.  I remember at Gemco one time I was with my Dad and he said "All Things Must Pass" is on sale.  Do you want to buy it?  - - - But I wasn't in the mood then.  Chris:  Do you regret that?  Guy:  I've never known anybody whose even owned it.  I just heard this roomer that it had an orange apple label.  Chris:  That's right.  Guy:  But actually a posting of mine actually suggested the issuing of several more George A sides making five releases in total as singles.  The other four would be 'Only a Northern Song" "Not Guilty" "Here Comes the Sun" and 'It's all Too Much" in that order.  Chris:  "You wanted that last one to be their final single did you not?'  Owens:  "I wanted the Beatles to go out with a bang and not a whimper, if you know what I mean.  I like the Anthology version of "Long and Winding Road" better than the Apple one.  Chris:  What do you like about it?  Owens:  I like the more intimate feel to that version, and I like that Leslie organ part in that's song, that's almost cut entirely out of the Specter version.  Chris:  I see.  What do you think of Paul as a Beatle.  Do you think he was an ego maniac?  Owens:  Hell no.  Actually he's the smartest Beatle and kind of really the born leader.  he was the diplomat and the ones with the brains.  At Hamburg he was kind of the M C who introduced a lot of the songs and was cheery to the audience and all.  Chris:  Do you think Paul was the most tallented musician back then?  Owens.  No, that would be John.  He was litterally the glue that held the band together back then.  The rest would screw up sometimes, particularly Ringo, who would often drum like he was on his own planet, but John was always steady as a rock.  Chris:  Really.  Owens:  Yes,  And if you listen to "Cry for a Shadow' an early song- - the other musucians may get a B or something.  Their playing is OK, but John is the only one who is really solid, although sometimes his guitar was cut way down in the mix.  Chris:  You know George is said to have supplanted the guy he replaces because he was a better guitarist.  Owens:  George was the poorest of the three guitarists in the group, actually, because - - that guitar part in "In Spite of all the Heartache" I don't even believe it was George playing.  The style is completely different.  Carter:  I never noticed that.  What do you think about Ringo as a drummer.  Owens:  I'm not certain but what Pete Best couldn't have defeated him in a head to head contest.  One time they conducted a play-off between Rory Storm and the Beatles and the Beatles won that approval vote, so they were the better band, for at least that day, when Ringo was still Rory Storm's drummer.  Chris:  I see.  What do you think about Specter's production of "Let it Be".  Owens:  I think the over-production is a bunch of crap.  I don't even like all the games they played on Anthology because they'd take a demo track part or most of the way through - - and then throw in strings at the last minute like on "Good Night" that ruins it for me.  Why not play the whole original recording.  You know there is a six minute recording of "She's a Woman" jam that never made it on to Anthology and I thought it would.  Chris:  I don't believe I've heard that one.  Are there any other pieces - getting back to "Let it Be" that you would like to coment on?  Owens:  Yes, I have definite ideas about how I would have demanded "Two of us' be performed.  I'd slow it down, and take away that bass drum thud, add reverb- - -and get Ringo to do the sort of drumming that occurs in"Third Stone from the Sun".  Chris:  That's Hendrix isn't it?  Owens:  "That's Right"  Carter: "That seems a little strange to me"  Owens:  "Sometimes you have to think out of the box.  Carter:  We haven't talked about John much.  Owens:  No, but first I want to say a word about George and Paul.  My favorite George single is "Bongle-desh" and "Deep Blue' as the B Side.  Good one.  And my favorite Paul single is probably his first one that my housemate Jim Cooper used to have and I got it from him and had it till 2001 when I moved one time and didn't have it any more.  Carter:  But what about John. Owens:  My problem with John is that he scarcely put out anything decent after "Mind Games" in November of 1973.  Carter:  Really. Owens:  And what I said about Pete being Better than Ringo- - I'm not dissing Ringo. He has a unique style.  In fact the only really CLASSIC version of "Yer Blues" is the White Album version, because that's the ONLY ONE that features Ringo's genious in drumming arrangement.  Carter:  Really!  Owens:  Yeah- - and I do like some of the anthology stuff that shows off Ring's tallents such as that whole "Rap" segment at the end of "Strawberry Fields" and also on "Good Morning" and- - on "I'm a Walrus" Ringo is the only one of the four of them whose playing doesn't sound like shit on that particular recording.  Chris:  One thing I'll say about you is that you are sure oppinionated.  Owens:  You only go around once in life.  That's my philosophy.  Carter:  Well, this program only goes around once because we're live right now and have time constraints.  We'll be right back in a moment after a commercial with an exclusive interview with Mae Ping.  Be right back.

Hey, it was either this photo or a sattelite view of Harlem I took off Google just now because I was bragging to my roommate how quickly I could zoom in on any place in the world.

Exestential Hyperbolics

My apologies for not making this essay “simple”.  Evidently I’m not as smart as Einstein to break it down for a two year old.  On last night’s Zodiac killer episode they said all you need as an IQ of 126 to land any job you want and after that it’s just gravy.  I’ll believe it when I see it.  Of course the thought crossed my mind last night that maybe the person I think of as Mal Evans is really the spirit of a now dead Zodiac killer what with all those word games and puzzles.  But there is a difference because none of our clues are as cryptic as a Batman episode as these clues were.  We were going to do some Beatles stuff at the end of this essay but I suspect that we won’t have time.  We already served up Beatle material as a side dish on our last posting so I guess we’ll just hold off on serving up any main courses for now.

We’re doing the hyperbolic thing one more time till all you readers get good and sick of it.  This paragraph covers “Geometric Background” and you might want to skip to the next paragraph is you know this stuff here.  First of all we have to learn to “think in reverse”.  That’s hard because our visual cortexes have been wired since we were two to reason along certain lines.  You know it has something to do with the words concave and convex.  We normally relate to convex space.  Convex lenses are the more common type on optics both because they deal with far sightedness, the more common visual ailment, and also because they are the kind of lenses used in cameras.  Some may say “It’s just a question of which way the arc bends.  Like they used to say about desegregation in the south.  “Nobody is against bussing - - it’s just a question of which way the busses run”.  We’re going to be running the busses the other way.  For instance many in the construction business may know the coordenates of a particular roof line on a home is a prospective buyer asks, but may now know the number of degrees in the slope.  If he had arc functions on his calculator he could look it up.  We talked about light “bending away” from matter in hyperbolic or concave space.  But Alice in Wonderland might come along and say “Well, maybe it isn’t that.  Maybe the light is just attracted to the NON space!”  We are going to have to think in such strange terms.  First of all you have to know that concave space can be defined as “That which has a lower refraction index than ether”, which of course has none.  So it’s a case of “less than zero” some may say.  Perhaps.  Any light source will bend out rather than in if it enters ANY substance with a LOWER refraction index than that which it was traveling in already.  So that number clearly need not be zero.  Some may wonder if we are talking about “mirror space”.  Let me put it this way.  We know in “natural trig” that sign and cosine coordenates make up a circle, where in hyperbolic trig these are defined by a ninety degree hyperbola.  Keep that number ninety in mind later.   Some may argue that it is “Not backwards but sideways and reversed”.  I’ll illustrate.  In circular trig the tangents form kind of a vertical “S” where the points of the S run up and down.  Actually if you analyze it it’s in reality a reverse “S”.  Look at one.  It’s the spikes on a heart beat scope.  Now we have the hyperbolic tangent.  This indeed is a real horizontal “S” with the points going flat to the side left and side right.  So- - to convert from one to the other you either in Paint lingo rotate it 90 degrees to the left and use the horizontal flip, or else- - you can do the vertical flip FIRST and then rotate it ninety degrees.  Either one will get you the same thing.  One tangent goes to infinity with limited lateral ability- and then starts over at negative infinity for a new cycle.  The other one has unlimited “latitude” but will never exceed the bounds of one and negative one.  The hyperbolic world values never exceed a one.  This could be a key clue.  I would as a side note warn you readers not to over extrapolate on your own.  If we don’t give the example, you better not do it yourself.

Hey, this wasn’t easy for me either to figure out but I told you people I’d try and do it.  But we have to get just a little more “extential” than I planned.  You can rightly deduce one thing.  Hyperbolic matter would have to exist in the form of a gas - - not a liquid or solid.  I was musing on this knowing that under Romulan cloaking - - a person would have to exist as a gas and relate to gasses.  These couldn’t disappear altogether because you wouldn’t be able to breathe in the oxygen and you’d suffocate.  How many of you thought of that?  We know from chemistry that “gasses expand to fill the volume of the container they are in” and they have a whole set of physical laws that apply exclusively to gasses.  So if something is in hyperspace- - it in a sense FILLS UP the whole universe at once.  This may be a bit metaphorical but we’ll come back to it.  Now though I’d like you to picture an hour glass.  (more elaboration in paragraph four) We know that tangents at 45 degrees are a one.  Here’s another rabbit side trail - - - it’s wrong to extrapolate the whole “range of tangents” thing to specific readings.  They go to infinity in circular and to just a ONE in hyperbolic.  We also know that hyperbolic is “center focused” whereas with circular no part of the circle is less important than any other part.  This whole circle thing is but an optical illusion to begin with - - and we discussed this aspect before mocking God for “running out of time to create more things in the universe”.  But the whole “circle” thing works.  Actually we live in what you would call an “outside – in” universe.  But hyperbolic space is an “inside – out” universe.  I’ll explain.  We see every object as if on the outside looking IN at it.  We don’t view life from the Object’s point of view but our own.  Capish?  I’m going to hit this next topic right now.  In photography we have objective or real images and also apparent images- - that we see.  It can be argued that distance numbers between lens and object can never fall below an index “modification” of ONE meaning no modification.  I guess that would be zero refraction-  if the lens were flush with the object.  But the other way from one we can go to Infinity- - and indeed beyond infinity to upside down and shrinking.  Don’t over-extrapelate that.  But look at Infinity there.  In any object focused in a real image by a convex lens- - - each spot or detail in the projected picture image- - if it were replaced by an eyeball viewing OUTWARD - - that eye would see just one color.  It would only see Itself, in other words.  In this strange Ayan Ran paradox - - - to be completely centered on Self and to see Self as filling the whole Universe and being a center of it- - is to be “properly focused”.  Our souls may be the Image- - -  but the actual Object the image represents would be “Creation in the Mind of God”.  And our SOUL - - - IS that object image and if our Mind (the lens) is functioning properly WE, our souls- - will “be on focus”.  Do you catch that.  So really when any camera lens is focused at a value of infinity it is it’s own stated F stop value- - so can be said to have a factor of one.  Of course as the object comes closer- - the Focal length interval will necessarily go up.

I’m aware of how much space we used.  One more point.  Harken back to that whole “sideways” thing again.  Now picture an hour glass as we said before.  The sane mounds up at an angle of 45 degrees.  The tangents would be one but this is basically to conform to the original hyperbolic equation and your average hyperbolic chart which deals in ninety degrees.  If you split 90 degrees vertically in two is breaks down to 45 degrees, of course.  Remember that in a hyperbolic chart- - the “space” is what is under the line.  So it can be argued that perhaps 76% of the area on a tight angle chart may be shaded in, but not all of it.  76%, which is a key figure for you math people.  This represents the number ONE.  You are a ONE - - and arguably are only entitled to 76% of your hopes and dreams being met alone.  Or Jefferson or great people are responsible for 76% of the ideas in the Declaration of Independence, and not all of it.  No matter how many people you can have you can never exceed 100% happiness.  If you think of life as holding up a football plackard card to spell out a message from the bleechers in football games- - you show the “presentation” side of the care Outward and what’s on the CARD is not meant for you to see.  Just as YOU present your own COLOR outwards of the focused light that hits You so you shine in your own Color while filling up the whole universe in your “gassious state”.  Capish?  

NOW get ready for our final point.  I keep getting away from that hour glass.  Pretend that sand is like some substance you can carve through like a Milky Way or something.  If you slice vertically you get a hyperbola.  If you slice horizontally you get a circle.  If you are a bit oblique but mostly horizontal you get an elipse- - of what you get when you approach the speed of light.  If you are off axis vertically- - - your own hyperbola will be under 270 degrees.  That’s right.  You are not the SAND - - YOU are the Space.  It’s like Bart telling Lisa “Well, YOU are the Cow Dung”.  You have to think of Being the thing you think you are not.  And you know again that even in the optical example - - you exist not in the “enclosed area” of the 90 degree hyperbola but in the other 270 degrees.  In hyperbolic trig the 76% represents the ONE.  You can of your own power only ever hope t achieve 76% happiness.  I doubt most people can even achieve THAT much without help.  You’ve heard it said “There are old pilots and bold pilots but there no OLD and BOLD pilots.  If the horizontal represents the OLD and the vertical represents the BOLD this is some kind of analogy for you, if not the best.  One can also see oneself as “The more off center you are the more rounded your hyperbola is”.  So that you are cheating life a little.  Maybe this represents the immature like with kids getting “more than their fair share” having rounded off hyperbolas that become more sharply curved (and dangerous?) later on.  But as more sand falls into the hour glass the “less off center” you will appear to be- - just by virtue of getting older and not even particularly by making any effort at it.  OK we are done.

Bag the Plastic Bag Rule

Government bodies do make mistakes.  The LA City Council has instituted a city-wide ban on plastic bags beginning at some indefinite date.  Let me tell you plastic bags are a lot easier to tote than paper bags for, for instance, old ladies, who may lack the muscle power to carry paper bags properly.  Plastic bags can of course be reused as trash bags.  And they point out that plastic bags are recycleable.  I imagine plastic bags are a lot easier to store before given out.  They remarked that the science used in their ruling is "junk science' and I would claim it's politically motivated by those with an agenda.  And then they want to charges us per bag, which is also really silly.  We have enough problems in this life without the P C crowd spending one more minute dreaming up ways to make our lives even harder.

Record reviews traditionally suck.  I notice that Wickipedia says Mind Games was "John Lennon's worst album to date".  But I have found that the more they carry on about how BAD an album it is, the better it turns out to be.  Some albums they have given a really bad review are "Duty Now for the Future" by Devo, "Muscle of Love" by AC, "Passion Play" by JT, "Diary of a Mad Man" by Ozzy, and "Barron Vot Tollboth and the Chrome Nun".  I admit I have never even heard this last one except for one good song from it that made it on to "Flight Log".  It's a tribute to Lennon that he was still doing political songs as late as 1973 because normally about 1972 was about the last year political songs were popular.  There is a huge shift in the lyrics of songs between 1971 and 1973 that is almost staggering, if you look at it objectively.  I think in this case being "retro" is a good thing.  "Meat City" apparently has the line "Fuck A Pig" backward masked.  Of course "Empty Spaces" gets more explicit telling the listener "Congradulations.  You'd discovered the secret message".  Well one thing is my cosmic sources tell me the album was recorded about six months earlier Wickipedia says it was.  But I can't prove that.

It's rather silly of Mittens Romney to talk about how "President Obama was into community organizing and politics, while I was into business".  We already told you that people like Rick Perry and Newt Gingrich don't call what Romney did as "Venture Capital".  Indeed- - people have admitted that "we are all stupid if we think Bane capital was in the business of saving jobs.  Bane capitol was in the business of making money for Bane capital."  But I'd like to now pose the question of what the Hell is wrong with either community organizing or - - - government service.  Don't call it politics; the more proper term for it is government service.  Though I would admit that "Politics" rather than Serving in the affairs of the national opperation - - is what tea party candidates have in mind.  Just remember that Jesus was a community organizer.  This is a noble profession.  People who get into office and "serve" a few years and then get out somehow ten times richer than when they came in and then go on into private business because they've become so tainted they're now unelectable - - - are not the sort of people I'd call a "statesman" anyhow.  They love term limits because this only makes it Easier for Lobbyists to opporate because the people they have to face are less experianced in dealing with their particular machinations.  Besides, it's not even true.  Mitt Romney DID seek to get into politics.  He pursued it.  He tried to pass himself "just as progressive as Ted Kennedy" in his losing contest for the senate in 1994.  Then he got out of government in 1996 because he sought to run for president and he's now been doing nothing but running for President for six years already!  Someone should really put this guy in his place and shut this guy up for good.

Memorial Day weekend is coming up.  On this approximate date in 1967, Wednesday May 24th. relations between me and Kathy Imperiali really took off.  I was a junior and she was a sophomore.  It was the following Monday the radio was awash in songs from Sgt. Pepper then being released.  It was that evening as you know I did my forty year projection into the future.  The majority of it of obviously wrong but notibly I do say that there was a democrat who had served for eight years whose term expired in 1996 and apparently we had done away with the 22nd amendment and he wanted to run again but now had become unpopular.  In this scenario- - I described one of the republican candidates as "an attractive woman with dark hair".  But she didn't get the nomination, so in the year 2000 she decided to run with her husband at the top of the ticket.  She was the more dominent personality and the one most popular with the people.  He was a bit of a dullard.  They got reelected in 2004 and that's as late as I projected.  But in retrospect I happened to think of Bob and Elizabeth Dole, although neither of those were ever elected President.  Tuesday was Memorial Day and a Holiday in those days.  I remember it was overcast.  (big surprise!)  There were more Sgt. Pepper songs and there was a new Jefferson Airplane song out that day called "White Rabbit".   Since it was Memorial Day the Indy 500 was run and A J Foyt won the race after Andy Granitelli's turbine engine conked out at the last minute or something.  For a long time I thought STP stood for standard temperature and pressure, because that's what it meant in Chemistry class rather than "Scientifically Treated Petrolium" which I learned much later.

Some of you have problems with "concave space".  You ask "So is there gravity or anti-gravity or what?"  It's been pointed out that if you were indeed in a world of universal repulsion then the more material you tried to gather together the stronger of a repellant effect you would feel.  The only way to escape this universal repulsion is to have the objects further apart.  You could not have solid matter or liquid matter for that fact, but any sort of molecular attraction wouldn't happen.  Some may theorize that it's only the LIGHT that behaves in this repelling manner and not physical matter.  Our whole thesis for this theory is that NOTHING ELSE CHANGES except the space.  All other observed perceptual changes are because you see it now through and in different Space.  This "imposes a problem" to quote a Whitmark Dylan blooper.  So how do you gather all of that repelling matter into one space.  It's held together because laws of THIS circular space HOLDS it together.  I admit I have not formulated a solution but my brain is working on it and when I do you'll be the first people to know.

Chimes of Freedom

CHIMES OF FREEDOM 2012

Economic times may be getting rough out there

For all you cats and kittens

It’s hard to manage while living on a pittance

And you really don’t know and you really don’t care

So with the tea party you are smitten

But whatever you do just don’t try on those Mittens

Weaving such a labyrinth of lies so devious

The bashing of all minorities just fills you with disgust

They say so plain “The next one named

You know it could be us”

Far off they hear the chimes of freedom crashing

To fully - - realize him

You come to know him and despise him

He grins with that plastic smile

Just like a crocodile

To know, know, know him

Is to Re-al-ize that

He’s a fool - - He’s a rat

He’s a rat - - He’s a fool

He’s a rat - - - ratta-tat-tat

Perhaps if we really want to go the hokey rout we could play “Getting to know you” during all of the “Find out about the real Mitt Romney commercial spots.  Because the more you get to know the real Mitt Romney - - well - - the conclusion is self evident.  Mitt Romney’s chief claim to fame that flagged a lot of people’s attention early was how well he Organized the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.  What you don’t know was that Mitt Romney was running out of money and went to Clinton and Congress and got a 1.2 Billion with a B dollar bail-out from the federal government, and that is what saved the Olympics.  John Mc Cain stated this before Congress.  This is the same Mitt Romney that said a government bail out of GM would “guarantee the denise of the US auto industry”.  Someone asked him the following question, “What specific talents did you learn at Bane Capital that uniquely qualifies you to be President?  Romney did not answer this question at all.  He just said, “Well that’s an unfair question.  I spent time in France (during the Viet Nam War) and I know about the international trade balance, and I know how to read a balance sheet”.  But the question is does he know how to Produce a Balance Sheet- - one that actually portrays the economic state of the company.  Since he says his time at Bane Capital is his best qualification as President you’d think he’d consider it fare game for scrutiny.  But he resents it.  And people like these attacks on his time at Bane capital just cropped up.  Randy Rhodes played a varitable tag team of people critizing his economic vulture record at Bane, and the leaders in this were Rick Perry and Newt Gingric.  But also John Huntsman threw in his two cents and they even managed to find a lucid statement of Sarah Palin of all people, on this topic.  None of them speak the least bit favorably of Romney.  And the question is- - Romney is not even thrifty with his own money by keeping it off shore in a Swiss Bank account.  You know that the Swiss government CHARGES you three percent to keep your money in that country and not ask any questions.  Now we move on to his record as governor of Massachusetts.  Massachusetts was 47^th in job creation.  Romney was governor there during the best economic period we have had in the past twelve years.  You knew that didn’t you?  That would be the years 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 inclusive.  Massachusetts’ GDP only went up .9% during this time, or nine tenths of one percent.  Contrast this with Mittens complaining about the President “only growing the economy 2.5% per year on an average.  Sometimes we’ve been above that.  During the period in question California increased their GDP over four percent and North Carolina came in at seven percent, and even New York was two & a half percent.  Randy says that even Hurricane Katrina didn’t hurt Louisiana’s job formation bad enough to be worse than Massachusetts.   Romney can’t even complain about the price of oil per barrel now because that has dropped from over a hundred to now ninety dollars per barrel.  Housing sales are up three percent in the latest figures.  The Euro is down.  So much for “foreign countries being better off than we are”.  But despite all of this somehow Romney is either tied with the President in the national polls, or else ahead of him and I don’t know how he’s doing it except now Anne Romney is now a sympathy figure- -  and married women are now going for President Obama in droves.  I’m not sure what can be done about all this- - but somebody better get an idea.

“When are you free to take some tea with me?”

“Well to tell you the truth I think I’ll pass on that offer.  You see, I’m not ready to have my mind messed with.  I don’t want to HAVE “Total Economic Amnesia”.

People speak of the decade of the “oughts” being the lost Bush decade.  But they speak amis.  Because NOW is the period of “the lost - - something”.  I think someone should come along and snip everything between late August of 2008 and a point in the future yet to be determined- - - right out of the calendar.  Five years ago look the good old days by today’s perspective.  Back then the candidates were talking about 9 – 11 still and New York’s ex Major, Rudolph Giuliani was considered the nominee designate because he was such a solid continuing of the Bush national security legacy.  Of course he was pro abortion and pro gun control but republicans were coming to realize these issues weren’t really the important ones either.  You had other candidates such as Fred Thompson and John Mc Cain in the race.  On the Democratic side it looked like Hillary Clinton had a lock on it.  But there were other candidates in the race.  You had Dennis Kassinich, and John Edwards, both fine candidates.  And you had this new guy named Barock Obama nobody knew anything about except he made a speech at the Democratic convention of 2004.  Back then I myself was on a solid economic footing.  I wasn’t rich, but I was keeping my head above water and not running out of money before the end of the month.  But the intervening four years can almost be likened to John Lennon’s “Lost Weekend” that lasted eighteen months.  It was time when he just went off the rails.  “We all go a little nuts now and then” as Tony Perkins says in Psycho.  Nobody in their most paranoid fantasies would have come up with the issues of the day now like taking guns to political rallies, vigilante racial killings, gay bashing, “Nigger head rock”, or the President of the United States held up to the most vial racial and ethnic slurs.  Back at the end of 2006 the future was bright and it looked at long last like the United States was headed on the right path.  Bush was consigning people like Dick Chaney to the back burner.  People were waking up and voting and signing impeachment petetions and all.  There was a liberal revolution in the talk show scene.  These past years have just been one long bad dream, and let’s hope that by the end of the year we “Wake up”.

Well it was thirty years ago this spring that Stephano Di Mira was first introduced as a character on Days of our Lives.  This is when they didn’t know that Jake Kosecheck was the Salem Strangler.  Mark used to come over to the Pinewood place after work and tell me about the day’s episode.  Sometimes Bobby Hayden would come home for lunch and watch the episode with him.  Later on in 2003 I told Bobby Haden that Abe Carver had been murdered by a new mystery Salem Stalker.  Bobby said, “Oh no, not Abe Carver- - I remember him from thirty years ago.  He was a good man”.  Well today the four Knights of the Round-table caucused, Hope and Bo Brady, and John and Marlena black, the chief victims of all of Stephano’s machinations.  They now think they can snag him with an Environmental Protection Agency violation on pollution charges because the poison gasses in the tunnels under his Mansion that lead to “Doug’s Place” on the lake - - these tunnels are where cousin Andre held a bunch of hostages including Lexi.  I really don’t remember that but I’ll take their word.  Of course we just passed the thirtieth anniversary of the Saturday night when we got Bones as a kitten.  We got him just after an evening of Miniature golf- - on May 22^nd I believe- - so actually it was the weekend before Memorial day.  As I said higher up- - knowing Memorial Day weekend is finally here makes me “see light at the end of the tunnel” as far as my finances are concerned.

Perhaps “Yes We Can” shouldn’t be the first Slogan we think of.  There is another question we should ask first and that is, “Is it Doable?”  In the case of conducting a nuclear plant raid on Iran the Israeli government concluded that it was NOT “doable”.  I heard that first on a Saturday night on the Mc Laughlin group.  They had conferred with the experts who informed that them that a raid would not be happening.  And this was proved correct.  When I talk about metaphysics I mention things I call inherently NOT provable.  But “concave” space does NOT fall into this category.  With the term “hyperspace” as we have been using it- - this is a theorized solution to a puzzle is “what happens when you surpass the impossible threshold in the addition of velocities equation?  It’s something that for all practical purposes “Can’t exist” under Einstinian reasoning and the reason why it “Can’t exist” is because under his theories it can NOT exist.  It is as it were “For proper thinking – all conception of it should be wiped from the human mind”.  For concave space it’s a different story because here we are talking about actual mass as we know it and physical laws and spaciality- - and gravity “as we know it” and we work from there.  Hence there is no “metaphysical” or better yet “mystic” connotations to concave space as the psychics use the term.  In the case of those four Soap Opera people roomanating among themselves- - they have to decide “What’s doable”.  They want Stephano “Gone” and the law won’t help them.  Not to put too fine of a point on it but Dr. Phil Mc Graw would say in such a situation, “Would you rather be Right- - or would you rather be Happy?”  Dr. Phil says that the correct answer is “I’d rather be Happy”.  Well, you take that premise and work from there.

Facebook To Be Investigated by the S E C

As Facebook shares continued their slide, regulators launched inquiries into whether privileged Wall Street insiders were alerted to the company's weakening financial projections, leading them to shun the stock or dump shares just as buying was opened to the public.  Morgan Stanley, which led the Wall Street effort to bring the social network public, came under fire following reports that the bank had told some favored clients that the bank was cutting its revenue estimates for Facebook. The lowered expectations came after the tech giant expressed caution in a public filing about its advertising sales on mobile devices. The legal issue raised could be "securities fraud — plain and simple," said Ernest Badway, a securities lawyer in New York and New Jersey and a former enforcement attorney at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. "You can't be putting out two sets of numbers."  SEC Chairwoman Mary Schapiro said the agency will examine "issues" into the bungled Facebook public offering. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the Wall Street industry-funded watchdog, has also expressed concern, and Massachusetts securities regulators have issued subpoenas for Morgan Stanley. My take on all of this is "you were warned" by the Media.  People were saying "You can't trust these initial public offerings because sometimes setbacks occur.  A word to the wise.  I think the legal issue is whether this is considered "taking a normal risk" or whether there are actual overt ethics brieches that are legally prosecutable.  I'm not one of these people who believe that the average investor, either in real estate or in securities, is entitled to free "stupidity insurance".  Caviet Emptor and all.  I've made suggestions in the past of pitfalls you can avoid in the markets, and a lot of it is counter intuitive to the novice.  Capish?

In terms of that Obama aid who made that statement about “Bringing up Bane Capital makes me nauseous as a concept”.  He’s trying to slither out of that statement - - backpeddeling or “doing damage control” or what not.  If it were me I wouldn’t give him the chance, because I’d have fired his ass before he could say Jack Robinson.  Because the tea party immediately jumped on the news tidbit and now have adds running to the effect that “Obama’s own people have privately turned against him and how you know the things they really believe when nobody is looking”.  It was a VERY damaging remark, and that’s why were I Obama I would not waste one more minute on listening to ANYTHING he said.  The remark was over the Line, pure and simple and there are too many people are truly devoted to his reelection to tolerate this.

The day has not been totally devoid of news items.  There is that guy who went over Niagara Falls attempting to commit suicide or something and fell the 180 foot drop or whatever without any kind of safety device.  And he survived.  He managed to swim to shore with only a few bangs and bruises.  He is lucky given the various currents involved.  The highest building in the world was just opened – in Tokyo, called the sky tower or something, and I don’t believe there’ll be anything to top it for a while.  Meanwhile in Burbank the Federal government wants to construct a microwave phone transmission tower in a residential neighborhood.  The FCC claims these towers are safe for school children or whatever.  I dispute this.  But like with Stephano Di Mira and the CIA the Federal government is able to overrule any and all sate and local zoning regulations, which is in violation of the federalist principles on which this nation was founded.  I would like to see a Court test on this one.  And the Golden State Warriers it seems are in Oakland now and have been and cannot move back to San Francisco across the bay until 2017, at the earliest, when their contract with Oakland runs out.  San Francisco is busy building them a new stadium in town.  President Obama says that Mitt Romney’s economic record on all fronts is part and parcel of this campaign and very germain to all the issues that should be discussed this year in the Presidential campaign, and I agree.  It seems that in Sacramento the legislature has just legalized robotic cars that now are allowed to drive on public streets without a driver.  That seems a little Orwellian tome at this point and if it were me I’d want to check that out a little more.  I’m going on record here that in order to meet their “a matter of weeks” deadline that Lexi carver is going down in this current “attack” that’s she’s had today under enormous stress.  There is that song I guess I heard on “House’ or something called “It’s Later Than You Think” – back in the forties or something saying “If you have those travel plans you better do it while you’re still feeling in the pink because it’s later than you think.

Before little Opus Magnum of this posting I see that this particular blog seems to be one of my more popular ones.  That's good.  We just moved this posting over here because originally a half hour or so ago I didn't have it where I wanted it - which was here, to both this and the previous posting in "Ten Commandments" would be top dog postings for a while.  Many ideas I advance as theories, and often one theory works on a different set of premises or not identical premises - - as other theories I have proposed.  What we have here is a path that was always "there to be walked down" but I just never walked down it before tonight.  So here we go.

And now there are just a few more metaphysical observations I want to re-state.  Some may say that “It seems to me that is some natural caticlism occurred in another Universe we should still be concerned about it”.  Not to get technical but all Religions talk about “Owing the Universe” and “putting out good or bad karma into the universe” or “It’s the Universe paying you back.  Well, “The” refers to This universe.  Not another.  We have no way of ever reaching them or knowing about them from here and you truly need a “God’s Eye” view of Creation in order to even know that the other Universe - - oblique universes - - exist.  We can’t be held responsible for anything we have no way of either learning about, let alone proving.  This is why I say that Christianity holds NO moral authority over us because even Dr. Levy admits there is no way of ever proving any of it.  And it goes visa versa for them.  A Universe is by definition a “closed system”.  In that April 2008 posting I mentioned that time and mass were related.  Many people hear these words and kind of “trip out” in their minds.  This concept isn’t rocket science but pure Newtonian logic.  I learned it thanks to a CW network program that went off the air about a year and a half ago.  Last season, anyhow.  Mass and time are functions or coralaries of each other.  You measure mass by how fast time is going.  Fast time requires by necessity less mass to”opporate’ and slow time by necessity inherently implies greater mass.  This is pure Newtonian logic.  And now I’d like to introduce a brand new concept.  You’ve heard me say that there is “concave space”.  But one could theorize the exisance of  “concave space” in the hyperbolic trig sense of the word by how mass and gravity interact.  I have stated many times that mass and space have to have a “compatable polarity” meaning a plus or minus sign for you engeneering people, especially the two of you who got murdered last month at USC.  In this case you have to make sure the plus goes with the plus and the negative or minus goes with the minus.  But now I’d like to introduce the other concept akin to “red square man” a checkers variation I came up as a kid, perhaps single digits in age.  It’s a way of making the game of checkers a whole lot harder to win.  It’s a simple concept really.  Instead of light bending tword a mass - - and as you know Einstein insists photos have no mass so it must be the space itself that bends.  We could argue about this till the cows come over but the end result is the same.  But the logical coralary is that there is a type of space in which light bends AWAY from a positive mass.  You see where I’m headed with this.  One might infer that a negative mass would restore the usual behavior of photon beams.  We have referred to this as “inside out space”.  Chuck Smith has used the analogy of seeing the “ugly side of a faboric’ or viewing the garment inside out and it doesn’t seem to look right.  And we only get to see it proper when we’re dead.  Many are intrigued by the idea, or at least I am, is when astral projection occurs- - everything we see in that state is mirror reversed.  I can’t prove this obviously, but it’s a theory I’m putting out there if you’re looking for some “alternate explanation”.  Many have maintained that things of what we call “Heaven” have a negative mass and naturally respond in an opposite manner to gravity.  This would eliminate the necessity for gravity itself to alter its nature.  So we needn’t try to control what is seemingly inherently possible to change in any way.  But perhaps in another special perception - - meaning concave space- we can experience this “lifting up”.  Since people translate Heaven as meaning “lifting up” or “lifted up”.  You can chew on this – anyhow.
