It's an illusion, It's a game, Or reflection of someone else's name.  Abba Cab, for cutie www.orthodoxresearchinstitute.org/articles/bible/tarazi_name_of_god.htm"Many philosophies and religions seek to "pierce the veil" of māyā in order to glimpse the transcendent truth from which the illusion of a physical reality springs, drawing from the idea that first came to life in the Hindu stream of Vedanta."Vedānta" means "the purpose or goal [end] of the Vedas  When they do it you're never there.
When they show it you stop and stare.[/color] |

making the rounds:
So the world is supposed to be ending today huh? That's bad.
I never have found out who let the dogs out, the way to get to Sesame Street,
why Dora doesn't just use Google maps, why we don't ever see the headline
"Psychic Wins Lottery", why women can't put on mascara with their mouth closed,
why "abbreviated" is such a long word, why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor
yet dishwashing liquid is made with real lemons,
why you drive in a parkway & park in a driveway, why they sterilize the needle for
lethal injections, why do you have to "put your two cents in" but it's only a "penny for
your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to? Why did Joanie love Chachi?
If a deaf person has to go to court is it still called a hearing?
Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane?
Does the alphabet song and twinkle twinkle little star have the same tune?
Why did you just try to sing those two previous songs?
And just what is Victoria's secret? You see, the world just has to keep going.
I have too many questions......and do you really think I am this witty ?
Because I actually stole this from a friend, who stole from a friend , who stole from a friend ,
who stole from a friend , who stole from a friend.

Grand Central Station The Birth place of a Nation This is True.   fletchword.blogspot.com/2011/12/ultimate-polar-express-analysis.htmlOnto the next set of symbolic characters: Conductor, Hobo and Santa - or the Godhead.
Hobo / Holy Ghost - This guy initially seems scary and identifies himself as a ghost. He plays on the boy's doubts, "seeing is believing" but ultimately helps him along the way and saves his life. (I admit its not a perfect allegory, but close enough).
Conductor / Jesus Christ - He brings children to Santa's presence and acts as the Mediator. He is helped by the Ghost and teaches important lessons to the children and offers the only passageway into the kingdom.
Santa / God the Father - Represents the source of all good gifts and the spirit of Christmas. Other than the gifts he brings to us (unseen), the only way we can enjoy his presence is through the Conductor.
Interesting that all three of these characters are played by the same actor, by design and not to be cheap or to aggrandize Tom Hanks (well, maybe just a little bit).  Finally, the key symbol in this film is the Bell. Throughout the movie, the boy cannot hear the bell because he has no faith. Despite everything the Ghost and the Conductor did for him in getting him to the heart of the North Pole, he still had trouble believing All aboard. Meet me. |

Boy - Protagonist / Lost his Faith / Thorns - The central character is doubting the reality of Santa. The Hobo taunts him saying you don't want to be duped, bamboozled, taken for a fool. This boy has let t he cares of the world and how he looks to others take over. The Conductor invites him to simply BELIEVE and not let what others think bother him. He follows this counsel through the rest of his life.  Girl / Christmas Cheer / Good Ground - Isn't it interesting to note that it is the female gender that just naturally gets it? She cares about others: listens to them, helps them feel welcome, shares (hot chocolate), sings with the boy (fellowship) and help the Conductor with the train. Most of all, she can hear the bell even when its not in sight or seemingly far away. Everyone is better off due to the part she played in the story. The Conductor invites her to LEAD the way and let her light shine. fletchword.blogspot.com/2011/12/ultimate-polar-express-analysis.html |

"That must have been some kind of doll." "She was" Today is en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festivus The holiday, as portrayed in the Seinfeld episode, includes practices such as the "Airing of Grievances," which occurs during the Festivus meal and in which each person tells everyone else all the ways they have disappointed him or her over the past year. After the meal, the "Feats of Strength" are performed, involving wrestling the head of the household to the floor, with the holiday ending only if the head of the household is actually pinned.lol Gotcha Macca. Happy Festivus! lol

We're still here! So much for doomsday hoopla from the Mayans.... Uh, do your REsearch. That's not what they said. No one said it was going to end. They said it was the change Apocalypse anticipators are ignoring that according to the Maya, when one great cycle ends, another begins. "It's about rebirth, not death." news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2012/12/121207-maya-truly-did-not-predict-doomsday-apocalypse/National Geographic Magazine needs to learn the etymology of apocalypse
apocalypse (n.)
late 14c., "revelation, disclosure," from Church Latin apocalypsis "revelation," from Greek apokalyptein "uncover, disclose, reveal," from apo- "from" (see apo-) + kalyptein "to cover, conceal"
apocalypse (Ancient Greek: ἀποκάλυψις apocálypsis, from ἀπό and καλύπτω meaning 'un-covering'), translated literally from Greek, is a disclosure of knowledge, hidden from humanity in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e., a lifting of the veil or revelation.lol Some kind Druid dude, lifting the veil. Some call it magic, the search for The Grail www.acronymsearch.com/documents/FAQ_001.htm Happy Birthday to me! |

Rapid Eye Movement That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a Hurricane, listen to yourself churn, world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs. Feed it off an aux speak,, grunt, no, strength, The ladder starts to clatter with fear fight down height. Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site. ;D Listen to your Heart Beat We'd love to take you HomeAnd Eye? Feel fine. Feeling pretty psyched. lol |

We hope you have enjoyed the show....we're sorry but it's time to go.....
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.....
Sgt. Pepper never realized "twenty years ago" that this little group would be so significant in the lives of the masses....
But the show is almost over....really getting very near the end....
We're sorry, but, it's time.....to GO....
Indeed....when the aliens arrive on the White House Lawn...for real.....and it's not some movie....and if those aliens really do have the capabilties to suck the brains out of humans....
Makes me wonder if they haven't already arrived and we just didn't realize it.....
THINK about it....Honey Boo Boo, Mama June and Sugarbear, and to even know what that means....methinks we have reversed it and returned once again to the caves to watch Swamp People, and Bubba, the real Alligator Man, or the real hairy men who live in the back of their trucks..seriously...Amish Dwarf tough man who rides into town on a pony....how do we think this is needful? A man with 19 kids, or 4 wives, or the largest prostate on earth, according to Guiness Book of Records....gypsies, Amish teens gone wild....baby beauty queens and competitions over who makes the meanest cupcakes?....or covering up bad tattoos....or who can work a gourmet meal from twinkies and cheetos?
What in the name of Pete has happened to our society? The amount of crap that is flung at the masses and considered "entertainment"...I surf the channels seeking life on earth...and coming up with every mutation, every disorder of the mind and body to be displayed as if a mass form of circus side show. Do we really need to know about a 300 lb man who wears a designer "onesie" and a custom made high chair, who goes on the computer to seek a "Mommy"...
When I get on to surf, not for entertainment, but in observation of what the public seems to want..."reality" though I'm not sure whose "reality" this is...
If I was an "intelligent life form from another planet", and observed this crap on display on Television, or observed it firsthand...I would get back on my spacecraft and seek another planet to conquer...because as it is...this planet is a mess, sink holes, pollution from Fukishima....chem trails....toxic waste in the oceans, ocean life forms throwing themselves on beaches every where....not to mention this sick stuff that is being created in "labs" around the globe...
Seriously, we're messed up...
