"Are you Start Loving!?!??!" the Ohio Middle Schoolers asked excitedly.

And then their handlers (teachers / shaperone's ) caught up with them and
rudely pushed them away.  Fear.  Censorship.  Cowardice.  GROTESQUE.

It was straight out of "Dead Poets Society."  I have no idea how they knew of me.
I think it is Good that they did.

Staggeringly important: Is America Yearning for Fascism

Staggeringly important.

The similarities between the former Bush Administration and those of a
fascist government were overwhelming. And when a recent billboard
popped up with a photo of W and the caption Miss Me Yet? it has to
make you wonder whether or not Americans actually prefer a fascist
form of government. ...

"Some seek to catch the 'flies,' w/ honey; I the Eagles w/ Soaring prospects...." SL

You can catch more flies with honey, than with vinegar. Old adage

"All flies were born Eagles, and may yet again become;
but most are afraid Heights, and seek to reduce others to flies too."
  SL

"Some seek to catch the masses (the 'flies'); 
I the Eagles, the latent Gandhi's, Wilson's, Wright's, Thomas's....
I've never seen flies do much Good, living off of what others' labor;
Gandhi, King, Maslow, Jesus... saw it about the same."  SL

I was deeply honored, and overjoyed." SL

Monday the local coffee shop has $1 bottomless coffee - that's the one time I'll
buy ANYTHING for myself.  So, after my shift this morning, with 35 min left on my laptop
battery, in I went.  Five minutes after I was settled and working, in an easy
chair by the door, in walked two Army guys in desert uniform, and they went to
a display case to decide.  I discretely lept to my feet and without their notice,
combined $10 that Reed had donated to me (http://www.washingtonpost.com/
wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/18/AR2010031805421.html
,
http://yearofgiving.wordpress.com/ ) with $10 someone else had donated and
got to a young lady over the counter without their notice - "please use this
to pay for them, and bring me the change please.  Please don't tell them where
it came from."  She was deeply surprised, and pleased.

It was late morning and I assumed coffee and a donut each, but I wanted to
be sure she had enough to cover it.  About 10 minutes later she came over to where I was
buried in my laptop and held out a penny.  :-)  She was grinning, cuz she too
had expected to bring much more change than that!  "They each had a drink and a
sandwich!  That was soooooo cool," she said grinning from ear to ear, to the
bum in sandals, with filthy feet and clothes (I refuse to use more than my global
share of water; the major cause of war this century) and Crosses tattooed on his head. 

What a Joy.  What a Privilege to contribute in even this minuscule way to our
Sons who've embraced the job of Dying for us all.  (That's how Gandhi saw their
job, with total Reverence, Respect, and Humility).

sl

ps: That same bum was startled out of his work by the same two Soldiers walking out
the door, but not before each in turn, looking the dirty, smelly bum in the eye
and saying a warm and unmistakably sincere, "thank you," shook his hand.  I haven't
a clue how they discovered me. It doesn't matter. "Stay SAFE," I sternly commanded,
our sons, our brothers.

It was sooooooooo cool.  Such an Honor.



"Our closest approximation to CHURCH: Our Citizens in Uniform." SL.

"They will know you by how you love one another."  "There is no
greater Love than to lay down your life for your brother."  "The
Good Shepherd lays down his life for his sheep."  "Love as I have Loved." 

'But Start! There is no liturgy, no incense, no choir,...
no Apostles Creed...; some aren't even 'Christian!'....!!!'

How totally irrelevant. 

Jesus NEVER EMPHASIZED such junk. What Jesus DID emphasize
was stuff like this:

"Your mouth says 'Lord, Lord,' but your hearts are far from me."

"Why do you call Our Father 'Lord' but do not do His Will?"

'One son said "yes Father," but did NOT do as His Father asked.
The other son said NO!, but DID His Father's Will.'

MASSIVELY IMPORTANT: Krugman - Going to Extreme NYT



Armed to the teeth, he robbed me at the Vigil today

And it is someone I knew!  A regular!

I'm there talking with someone, and I got robbed!

He stands about 3" tall, but while I'm distracted, he is hauling
away a half full, large jar of peanuts!!!!!!!!!!  Somehow, he
got a grip on the lid with his teeth, and he's dragging it away
just as fast as he could!  The jar was at least as big as he is!

Oh my goodness, it was totally hysterical.

sl

ps:  NO, I DIDN'T give him any!!!  I don't reward bad behavior.
But I do RECONCILE, so if he is well behaved tonight, he'll
get some.
