Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

"I could never interest N.S. to talk about Filthy Lucre,"

Could be that it was too dirty to talk about..?

I've heard that N.S. has left S8... hopefully to more fertile grounds for him.

I will miss him.
Hard to leave studio eight
He might be back

This place should be very fertile considering the amount of manure that gets dropped.

E.O. Wilson an interesting dude.

If all mankind were to disappear, the world would regenerate back to the rich state of equilibrium that existed ten thousand years ago. If insects were to vanish, the environment would collapse into chaos.
E. O. Wilson

Wise man, JT...

E.O. Wilson an interesting dude.

Many years ago I had to have his book, The Ants, which I sprung for. It's a really big book and so damn complete that it would take me months if not years to fully digest. Yes, E.O. is an interesting dude. We should invite him to Studio 8 for a chit chat.

you couldn't talk underwater which was nice

Hahahahahahahahaha!

Sorry to interrupt, guys... but that was funny!

I will invite him over Cecil.
Clay is an interesting dude too.
Only two people here ever gave me the adrenalin shakes, he is one of them.


I never read anything about the ants. I am packing up to move, I am packing books as we speak. Trying to decide which books to get rid of and what to keep. I got one book by him on my shelf.

Consilience is a keeper. Been reading in it for a while now.

Sorry Clay
just say
High Jack.

JT: I will invite him over Cecil.

Good deal, Jack... send me a PM when it's confirmed, preferably in the morning when I'm usually at my sharpest. The afternoons dull me out. But then again, we have to have LR involved so check the best of time for that rascal, eh?

How's Hermine doing you? Has she come thru yet?

Only two people here ever gave me the adrenalin shakes, he is one of them.

yeah and the other one is cecil, right? or is it judih? mousey1? mnaz?.... ohhh... must be me? OK then i've served my purpose.... he taught me everything i know about that

Blowing me away at this very moment
sitting here among boxes and boxes of books
packed up but the rain putting a crimp in my plans

Maybe I should have a book burning
what to do with all these books
some I have never read more than a line or two.

I got Wilson's book
I would hardly know what to say to him.

I am at my best between four in the morning till noon
then it is all down hill
rolling rocks and camus

Anger, I thought I detected a little anger

I wasn't looking for a fight.

Jimboloco the other person

I am really groovin on the new banner rotation
looking at what is passing by as I click my way to a reply

Anger, I thought I detected a little anger

I wasn't looking for a fight.

who? what? when? where?

oh I don't know
you know how clumsy me is

Sorry Clay
here I go trolling Studio Eight again

Maybe you should say HighJack
maybe I am

But you started me thinking about ants
I been packing up to move I picked up a book I have not looked at in Six months or more. E.O.Wilson's Consilience—The Unity of All Knowledge I been reading it again the last couple days and I think I am remembering why I put it down.

p.24

I admit that the confidence of natural scientists often seems overweening. Science offers the boldest metaphysics of the age. It is a thoroughly human construct, driven by the faith that if we dream, press to discover, explain and dream again, thereby plunging repeatedly into new terrain, the world will somehow come clearer and we will grasp the true strangeness of the universe. And the strangeness will all prove to be connected and make sense.

I am sitting here with no shoes, no shirt no pants and I am stoned on the first day of the lunar new year trying to think about the metaphysics of the ant. Only Emily Dickinson can help me now. If only I had a little more time

just give me one more symphony

Happy New Year you all

Cecil got his livelihood right


When we have more people like Cecil in this world
we all be better off

Maybe you think I was patronizing you or saying platitudes

Maybe I should have said if my nephew was more like Cecil he would be better off. I know I would be better off if I was more like Cecil.

sincerely

JT: Maybe you think I was patronizing you or saying platitudes

Nah, Jack... I don't even know what that means. It was very kind of you to say that original thing about me, amigo... thank you~
