Note from a former executor:  «Hescha! When i finisht this thing, i didn't mean for evybody to move!» -tatcwp-  Friday, April 27, 2007...drixxly & cool

LOCAL NEWS: Yesterday, outside my very parapet, the school=children Cheered as the gang from our Armory passed by in buses on their deployment. I wish they didn't have to go But i wish them bettre to have a good Term.  Meanwhile, the property tax relief is not at all coming this Year from the CASINOES, some of which are already open for business. So, where is the money going?? Just a query^  Fortunately, there is anothre primary election coming up on May 15th. It's mostly municipal but even independents can VOTE on certain ballot questions. Remembre~change comes from having a purple fingre, not from the mouths of Politicos. Think, Act, Vote.

NATIONAL NEWS: STEPHEN HAWKING can float! The fysicist who ably & disably sits in the chair of SIR ISAAC NEWTON took a ride on the zero=g plane and experienced fully a suspension of one of the smallest, strongest Forces in the universe. Good news for NASA!  [go to him^ for an Explanation of gravity]{There is othre National News, but i like the bright schtuff.} Think, Act, Float. Nix Besser.  Of the rest of life, i have Places to see And People to be... Amorro, slac

ride

On such a beautiful day, We require lightness.Lightness of clothes, lightness of carriage and lightness of charactre. The gentle touch... And sun=screen! Plenty of schmutzy SPF.  The terrapin and i had a light lunch at Nick's.  He had the tuna=fish sandwich & i had the chicken/bacon/cheese melt. [my cholesterol meds must earn a Place in my arteries!] We decided that if i am EARL, he must be RANDY.  Even 'tho he's the one with an automobile.  Also--if he is PINKY, then i must be BRAIN, altho we werkt the logic back=wise on that.  Then we talkt about a million othre things which i pray do not end up on KIM BASINGER's  fone=machine. ['nuf said^] We sauntered thru the neighbourhood and took in two (2)open=hauses. This^ is an idle entertainment on a SUNDAY for two brothers to enjoy when two of their Sisters are brokers and one of their ex=brother's=in=law is a rehabilitateur.  But, regardless of that, we were walking for the sake of walking. Lightly in the Moment...  People i shoulda met: Vonnegut was in theWalley twice, including once at my College of Record. Kitty Carlisle probly came to visit one or anothre theatres here as well. I shoulda seen DON HO when the Colonel offered to take me and the Patriarch...We were already strolling near WAIKIKI as he mentioned it. That was in the last millennium. Brief opportunities...  Where in the name of LAUREN AMBROSE was i going with this?! i must be sun=addled. Toni and Todd haf been so good as to lend the turtle a room near Cat's bewidowed Matriarch...it will be a mitzvah on the Fambly. veritas ^written Sunday, April 22nd, 2007 CE^

Monday, April 23rd, andSeven, new Epoch... What a grand day to collect yard=waste and confer with my Regulars! Including my brudda who carriaged me in the black beauty unto my SouthEastern ramparts. Such a one i would not trade Diamonds for, if i owned such gems to barter. Imagine the trouble we will cause in Carolina come cinco de mayo....or werds to that effect. Puxxle imperfect.~slac~

The Bells are Back!  [this is either a reposit or publication of previously deleted material:]  (Friday, April 20, And7^)  The cathedral has been undergoing renovations and for some reason, we've been without a carillon for six months or more. {one could scan my old entries for such a temporal reference...} Any=way, the darn bells are back. Funny how you don't miss something very Annoying until it's not there.  [edited]

It's 8 o'clock...do you know where your Bells are?  Wednesday, April 20, 2005

Weathre: perfect

Werk: slightly busy

Werld: very much still screwed up with horrible actions here and there. C'mon, people, we are in this thing togethre---let's please abandon the slaughter of innocents and the Dumping of good Humans into brackish waters. Presently.

Bells? Heresy? Genocide? Crud?  i hope i don't get the bump & shun from the wonderful creatures who occasionally reset My counters.

STUN

Tuesday, April 17th, the Seventh year of the new Epoch...i have lost too many this week. The Writer who inspired me to twinge my science fiction with social commentary (84), the piano Teacher (95) who encouraged me to Compose music, although she was frequently disappointed with my assigned lessons AND thirty=one persons in VIRGINIA i have probly never met. Werds fail me.

--a saddened slac--

TRUK

And so it goes.

kind

April 10th, and7, a Tuesday... my doctor was looking at my old triglycerides numbre and she said,"Some people would kill for that."  {she loves my numerals, expecially the ones corrected by minimal meds}  Now, if only they could figger a way to draw Blood without a sharp schtick into the radial artery! YOW^

The Turtle treated three (3) of us to EASTER DINNER at a nationalised restaurant. i did the drifing...Cat had her dinner in anothre locale.  That is, WE were celebratory until i had a minor conniption Regarding the table=talk. {i love my Brother and his chi'dren as my own} Next year, i'll baste my own ham or lamb AND invite evybody! It's possible.

As chilly as it is here and elsewhere, i take heart of the Redemptif days.  As i was riding the W retourn just yesterday, i gave my day=pass to a woman who needed it more than i was going to use it. She insisted on giving me a paper dollar for it.  Yet, as i alighted on twenty=second street, i handed the folded singleton back to her. [Small kindness that i read the book in the bright Season.]G & J tell us to,"Give without thot of Recompense NOR apprehension of eventual reward."  Truth. Believe.

~testable/testamentable Slac~

CRUX

Fridayish...in the twenty=first Century...

TITLE: We call it schpring, onion=schnow & all

TEMP: 48°, brisk with sun=shine flurries

MOOD: offlusif...and mildly befuddled

PUXXLE: perfect, 100%

PRESSURE: 107 systolik, 67 diastolik...

MUSIK: mostly EJ with some othre 70s throwed in

NOISE: the cardinal chirps cheerfully

WIDEO: Elton's birfdé concert, ANDY BARKER

GROX: baby carrots, olive oil, egg noodles,

bogo hot=dogs And salsa

HAER: under the hat, short and flat

THOT: «if Bullets were $ 2400 an ounce, How many

murders would there be?»

POLITICAL OBSERVATA: Our choices are narrowing precipitously on both sides in the And8 general presidential election. Would you rather have a multi=racial candidate than the first Woman in history? [^democrats^]  JOHN EDWARDS should have been the top of the ticket four (4) years ago. Hmmm...

Would you rather have the former Mayor of an assailed city than a decorated war Veteran who has held to Principles of engagement in the Senate? [^republicans^] Hard selexions, too early offered...And who will arise as a spoiler?!  Schtay tuned, get registered, it's gonna be a fine mess. Plus+, it's way too soon for me to get into these Concatenations... veritas

BIBLICAL REMARKS: the Witnesses are driven crasy by how i parafrase the Good=Book, even when i am reading it verbatim. {Alas, i do not have the original Hebrew, Greek & Aramaic on hand}

TEXT: there we were, me and the Turtle, eating schlices at the local pizza parlour, sitting near the plate=glass front window [something real gangstas would never do] when two detectifs walkt in for a nosh. i could tell they were police by their automatic sidearms..but they weren't wearing uniforms per se. When we left, we observed their cars which were marked, DORAVILLE POLICE. The Turtle noticed their GEORGIA plates. Holy Crud! Were they here for a prisoner exchange OR becos of that Federal thing in JERSEY? And hadn't my brother just come from GEORGIA on palm sunday?  {the innocent have nothing to fear from the officers of the Law--yeah, right.} Over=more, could our membership in the BFD have been compromised? i kid out of professional respect.  Never mind~we'll either find the answers or Not.  Happy Holy=Days from the slac^

«i am guilty of a great numbre of sins, but putting ketchup into an ice=box isn't one of them»  ~slac 2 Maizy, recently~

April 04, 2006...

Apparently, the gators did win that tournament. The Engineer took it as a sign WE should all move to [a] beach=cottage. But he is renowned 4 saying unusual things out=the=loud. Such a helper!  ^reposited material^edited

«We also must find a place for Boo to live, with or without Effects.» ~Maizy, positing the ninth (9th) item on the agenda of a 2006 meeting~

i can now cheer for the Floridian teams acause i have been there.  The Turtle has retourned from his most recent trip there; he coached me in the black beauty to the places i needed to go Today. Which is to say, He schtill helps me in very large ways to fulfill my mission, whatever it may be. Over=more, togethre and inadvertently, i believe We transform the werld. it's a small delusion^  Mean=while, he askt me on the Road the meaning of "maundy".  i did not give him a good reply for holy=week, But i believe it suggests the ENGLISH term, "bittersweet".  id est: the Son of Man travels this week to Glory in JERUSALEM...yet no=one knows that it is a suffering, horrible, ransoming Glory. It is a mystery^ Veritas

Correction: my brother did the research on maundy and found it to be from the Latin mandatum, a mandate, to wit:  "Love one anothre as I have Loved You."  A difficult command in any language...
