I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past deadI just need some place where I can lay my head"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"He just grinned and shook my hand, "no" was all he said
Take a load off FannyLet her rock 'n' rock herwhen she's weary I laid down
Grabbed ahold of her by the hair'Til she come to a restHer head, it was beat up from all that rockin'No such thing as too much rockin'
I looked up from the floor,She laid there all beautiful

Never to be recognized
Her lovers were John Stratton Hawley, Sir Philip Sidney, Sir Thomas Browne
She drank tea with Gascoigne
Her last friend was W. W. Hurst
She believed in God
She had great faith in the benefits of tea
She died and left all her possessions to her dear friend
She was buried in

A few years ago, when we were at the Phil Phan residence watching Star Trek: The Next Generation for the first time, Adam, Ari and I had a conversation about what it meant to be a Trekkie.
And it hit me: What do Trekkies do that Star Wars fans didnât do? If you were a Star Wars fan and you were sitting in the living room watching a movie about other worlds, what did you do? You drew your lightsaber, you waved it around, you blew your nose with your bacta tank, you hit your forehead, you played Wookie ball, you smacked your cupped hands together and shouted âKAA-CHOOOâ at every little blip on the TV. Thatâs what you did.
But if you were a Trekkie, you followed the show, you collected the cards, you brought your figures, you wrote fan-fiction, you copied the episode numbers on your mailboxes, you owned your favorite ships. You followed a show you loved.

He also talks a lot about how we learn. "Do not let anyone" as the narrator of the show put it so elegantly and good-naturedly, let anyone "sell you anything." (It's a clear warning, one we must heed and emulate, for that is the lesson that made Mr. Rogers so well liked in the first place.) This theme is fundamental to Fred Rogers: we must learn how to discern which good and benign messages come from the media, and which ones come from the media as its own sort of monster.
The brand of friendliness is particularly interesting and appealing. Despite his obvious shortcomings as an employer, the carefree spirit of the production team, the absolute veracity of the messages and the universality of his character, Mr. Rogers always displayed a genuine warmth and caring for the folks on his show, and an affinity for children in general. His job and occupation really were a model of good, loving parenting. He took his work seriously, but never himself.

Water dripping from the pipes down in the basementBare feet on a concrete floorNotches on the wall of my solitary cellSweat dripping out of every pore of my body
The smell of damp, rotting wood
Wet cold and dead silence
Exhausted eyes
Unquenchable thirst
Desperate need to break through the wall
To no avail.
Muffled muttering and screams
Spare patches of light through the cracks
A patterned carpet of dank
Blinding white and dread

Feces just started sliding out of my butthole, and going onto the floor. My girlfriend was screaming as she saw the poo filling up the kitchen floor. My girlfriend had also drank some of the wine on the kitchen table and she started complaining about how strong it tasted. By the time my friends and I got to the police station I was completely wasted and in a lot of pain.
The police took me away, but before they did anything my girlfriend and her friends threw up all over the police car!
Grades really took a beating when I was a high school freshman in 1973 and I got a DUI from a night at a bar (my cousin got me the job).
I remember coming home and running into my room, and dropping my stuff. I took off my shoes and pants and threw my clothes at my door. I just laid down on the floor and started puking. I puked until I was tired. I remember thinking: If I had to go through this all again, I would not drink.
As I am an anarchist, the thought of being accountable for an impaired thought sounds exciting to me, but once I am under the influence, I will do just about anything (often in the line of duty), and I think I'm actually on to something.

Does anybody remember the DALL-E Mini craze of June 2022? It was awesome, although most of the results looked like smudged Francis Bacon paintings. I'm sure much more efficient DALL-E drones will become available by then, but for now, I've got a DALL-A in a backpack, and I'm ready to go. The fact that it will go from $399 to $399 in 2022 doesn't bother me at all.
So, the Second Coming will be on its way in a couple of years, assuming our lunatic President is not in jail or doing a nine-month stint at The White House Hotel after having what the media won't tell us is an "old-fashioned" meltdown and his supporters are still telling us that the mainstream media is the enemy of America. Whatever. I'm going to be in Kenya by then and will be taking copious notes.
In the meantime, I've been researching certain projects for the time when the U.S. decides to stop being a superpower and become a semi-apocalyptic after-hours restaurant, which means my 2020 book project isn't going to happen.

Pumps and a bumpPumps and a bumpWe like the girlsâ wall-mounted pumps because you can turn the pump around and the whole system snaps into place with a single push. It can also fit in tighter spaces and, with four outlets, we can pump from one wall-mounted outlet and run the whole system with just one battery pack. The main component, a pump, sits right on the wall and is simple to mount, and the removable battery pack sits on the floor right in front of the pump. The batteries last a little longer than the battery in your iPhone, but we were able to pump just as much, and the pumps themselves do not heat up much more than a normal household

As he finished telling us of an island that was supposed to be a psychopomp, or centaur psychopomp, I decided it was probably best not to push him on this one. After he left, I laid in bed with Fred, and shared my beliefs with him.I don't think he necessarily believed me, but at least he listened.He did ask if I thought there was a psychopomp on the island.I answered him honestly.If there was, he probably wasn't there right now, for there wouldn't be a psychopomp.
Sheila produced her father's notebook - there were sketches of centaurs. Perhaps this is a clue to which Island the scepter is hidden on. Perhaps she is psychopomp and has been with them for centuries. Even ancient scrolls are enough to place her in ancient times. I dreamt we met the centaur brother - Silouan, the Chief Centaur.
