Why aren’t the Wall Street bull’s balls pictured more often? Why instead the charging head and horns? It’s always struck me how tiny a bull’s hindquarters are compared to its powerful head and shoulders. Really not much in reserve, is there? The aggression is all up front. Are we still afraid of the bull’s behind? […]
Read MoreI was going to start today’s postings with something on today’s Occupy Wall Street action, plus something about Johan Callemann’s interpretation of going into the Seventh Day, Sixth Night — or is it Sixth Day, Seventh Night? I’m too wasted to look it up — of his (October 28, 2011) version of the Mayan Calendar, […]

Read MoreI mean, like, the New York Times is headquartered very near the near-week long protest parades and encampments of these mostly young, and some old, overeducated, underemployed, and fed up members of the 99% class. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtDo8VuVofQ&feature=player_embedded]

Read MoreI, for one, am banking on it. As a ten-year taichi practitioner, I know myself as an fluctuating energy field in constant flowing motion. And I experience the entire world that way, too. Every time some new and seemingly utterly ruinous event rips the fabric of the real, I return to the breathing practice of […]
Read MoreBesides the coincidences I noted yesterday of today’s Denver drill happening on the Fall Equinox along with the much bally-hooed satellite falling to earth, here’s a story from theintelhub.com that pulls together lots more coincidences, including Elenin dramas which I prefer to ignore. In the face of all the weirdness, of course we ask, “Who […]
Read MoreThis story appeared on the front page of today’s local paper. FYI: our Green Acres Neighborhood Ecovillage (GANE) website: www.ganecovillage.org. Check it out, and use it to provoke your own thoughts about living in a neighborly way. How about if you and your close-by neighbors started looking at yourself as one node of an ecovillage, […]
Read MoreJust what are we to make of the massive Homeland Security” military emergency “exercise” in Denver and Douglas County scheduled for tomorrow, September 23, on the Fall Equinox? Check it out. Vast, interconnected practice(?) in top-down “command and control” of multifocal “terrorist” attack in which no less than 101 “agencies” are expected to participate. Operation […]

Read MoreRemember the 1999 movie, “Eyes Wide Shut?” I remember being puzzled by its plot. How could such depravity exist? It couldn’t. My eyes stayed wide shut. Likewise, I thought yesterday’s article below from Gordon Duff at veteranstoday.org too extreme, that it painted our corporatized, militaristic and governmental descent into murder and torture with too broad […]

Read MoreExtraordinary video. Incredibly energizing. Utterly brilliant script that skewers pharmaceuticals and every other technology that torques the prefrontal cortex into “the gestapo of the mind.” This 9 minute video made my body thrum, reminding me of the afternoon back in 1968 when I devoured Tom Wolfe’s “Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test” and just wanted to get […]
Read MoreThe given title of this piece is misleading, in that there’s only one paragraph that talks about “50 ways to leave.” I’ll have to read some of the papers and watch some of the videos for that. Meanwhile, go here. And meanwhile, there’s lots of interesting nuggets in this piece that show the depth and […]
Read MoreI include this article mainly to keep bringing forward this topic of schooling in a climate where testing seems to be all that counts and curricula are becoming more and more rigid. Seems to me we need to have a real debate as to what authentic human learning actually consists of. Should so-called education be […]
