Glasses which can tell you if someone's lying? What the hell? Have we lost our minds? "Lies, damn lies, and statistics".... wow.... I wonder if I could win a bar bet with this one. I would have sworn Mark Twain first said this. Benjamin Disraeli? Now that's a surprise. This man, Disraeli, was an int...

There will be protests, and some arrests. But I don't think the situation will explode. Perhaps this is just more of my wishful thinking. An all-out riot doesn't do the Democrats any favors in the public opinion arena. I don't know.... my recent 'wishful thinking' record isn't too good.... like the ...

"mercurial".... I love that word.... both Mercury and Saturn figure in the upcoming September night sky, it turns out. I didn't realize this, but there's a spacecraft out there now which recently passed near Saturn and all of its moons, sending back some great pictures. It's called the Cassini-Huyge...

thanks doreen

thanks doreen. It's rough, of course, taken (and expanded) from my road notes. I noticed there is some repetition and shifting context in this series of descriptions and thoughts... oh well... a work in progress. I've been trying to weave these notes together into larger work.... just something I wa...

monitor resolution.

re: monitor resolution. Maybe that's it. It seems the problem is here on my end. For some reason, I can't resize my resolution above 640x480. When I hit the button for 800x600, Windows 98 goes thru the motions of making the change, but it doesn't "take".... when I recheck the resolution after a resi...

re: music.

I used to play drums in symphonic band in high school.... the biggest challenge was trying not to fall asleep. I never took it any farther than that.

Music appreciation is more my thing.... though at times I wish I played bass in some big spliff roots reggae band in Jamaica.

OK.

Yes. You were illustrating the government's likely point of view and not your own. I get it. I'm clear on that.... (also, I was goofing a little, anyway). I wish these family-related bennies had never existed. And I certainly don't think they should have been pushed as far as they have been. But at ...

Ah Ha!

So you're much more on my page than I ever imagined! Cool. If I ran the world (with my mnaz Iron Fist), I would probably yank all those "family values" perks, or at least be seriously tempted to. It is a personal choice to procreate. Therefore, the procreators should personally foot the bill. Well.....
