I thought this was Cute.. The worlds shortest fairy tale.. Once upon a time a girl asked a guy "will you marry me"? The guy said "No", and the girl lived happily ever after and went shopping,dancing,drank martinis, always had a clean house,never cooked and "Fluffed" whenever she wanted... | ||

I was hoping curiosity would get the better of you, and you'd look this up. A rutabaga is sometimes known as a "Swede"!!! Swedish Chef | ||

'Fluffing' also apparently has a rather dirty connotation, so I laugh everytime you use it... (Message edited by waxtadpole on June 18, 2006) Swedish Chef | ||

Buddie, not gonna make a "judgement" like that. Which is why I question. After the weekend I had (threw a party for Father's day with all the kids and grandkids, and could only function on one cylinder,) I am having problems functioning in "social settings." Who knows whether it's hybrid/alien stuff, or just bodies reacting to bombardment of microwaves, mercury/lead poisoning, pollution or what not?? (And I worry about the "what-not." September is coming, Nevada will be "blown" sky-high, again.) | ||

What do you mean about Nevada, L. A. B.? I live fairly close to there, ya know Sal, I need a triple mocha, non-fat milk, iced, to go--got to get back into the studio and *paint* today.

They're planning a "test" in Nevada (mushroom-type) people are trying to stop it, but September seems to be the "date." http://deseretnews.com/dn/view2/1,4382,640187676,00.html?textfield=Nevada If the "government" wants something, it will happen, (if nothing else, to show N.

| Patricia Davis Senior Member Username: patricia Post Number: 10215 Registered: 10-2003 |
*Limbo*--!!!? Jeepers, susi, do you want us to end up in traction?!   It might be OK if we all landed in the same hospital, in adjoining beds, but otherwise.... And while no love/time travel movie is as good as "Somewhere In Time", there is one currently in theaters called "The Lake House" that I wrote about in the Philosophy topic area in the Recommend movies here thread. I do love a sweet love story....[sigh] Brighid, I'm *so* glad to hear that Sal's and the corner blankie is government-proof That explains why I instinctively spend so much time here"When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross."

And of course, when Christopher Plummer came on the scene, I went "there's the key!!" (Lake House and Somewhere in Time, played the "nemesis" both times!!) Yup, threw for the $5.50 to see the newbie film, it wasn't bad. (The critics tore it apart, because of course, it's a "chick flick") Government proof doesn't deteriorate the eternal "softness" of those blankies and stuffies (hugs Snoockums.)  8 inches??

LOL No pics, but she's 16" tall, and when she lays on her back and is happy she can wiggle around the floor, almost crawling out of her skin with enjoyment! Her chest then is only about 8" high!

OMG, I'd forgotten that Plummer played the Bad Guy in "Somewhere In Time"! Fancy that!? He plays a total narcissist in this movie, but even with that, I still love to see him on the big screen. Those reptilian looks of his keep landing him villain roles--he was superb as the Nazi-collaborating banker in "Inside Man" and also had more screen time than in "Lake House" (and a much better script). There's an adorable doggie in "Lake House" too--a female mixed breed who rejoices in the name of "Jack" and sleeps lying on her back in the silliest position Oh, I have GOT to get offline and do annoying Real World stuff--why am I still HERE?!

Was watching a PBS documentary about Helen Keller last night, and it brought out the fact that she was a "spiritual" woman, influenced by a teacher of hers (not Annie Sullivan) who introduced her to writings of Emmanuel Swedenborg. Guess I am not very well read, but had never heard of him. He influenced William Blake and Carl Jung, and apparently had similar experiences (balls of angels/occult/prophetic visions) that influenced him. He was a scientist/experimentor but took issue with the Lutheranism of his native Sweden (Uppsula, which also perked up my "Phantom" ears, Christine was from there.) http://www.soultravel.nu/2004/040907-swedenborg/index.shtml Very intriguing. | ||

i like what she once said; someone once asked helen keller what could be worse than being blind. her response was, 'having no vision.' she was a remarkable lady. | ||
| buddie Senior Member Username: buddie Post Number: 874 Registered: 3-2006 |
I made a copy of this and read it on the bus coming home.Anyone who reads this I hope will believe me when I say I have never made up or embellished anything I have said in UC. I've always admired Helen Keller since I was a kid. Maybe she directed Lab to post this link so I would read it and remember my "dream" again. Thats the way I'm going to look at it anyway. A quote on page 4.. although human beings appear to be separate from one and other, we are all connected in a cosmic unity. Moreover each of us is a heaven in miniture. When I read this It was like...BANG! Just about took my breath away!! How could I have FORGOTTEN last nights Dream? I had THESE words explained to me last night. I understood it perfectly..more than I do today because to understand you also have to experience the oneness it was so complete and blissful.It's all mixed up now and I'm just Blown away by this.. It's frustrating and unfair that something like this could just disappear from my memory ..except for the article it would have..is it true "dunno" but what I experienced last night was exactly how it's quoted by Swedenborg..who I never heard of either. I've read where others said simular things and before last night I could never get my head around it..so I'm apt to believe it's true after all.. Don't know why this happened but thanks Lab for being a link! | ||

Well, Patricia told me to come on over. All the goodies are calorie-free and the talkin' is fun! What's on the roster for tonight? First up, I'll take that big ole glazed chocolate Krispy Kreme if noboby else wants it, oooo! and also the glazed raspberry-filled (slaps L.A.B.'s hand as she reaches for it) It's MINE! OK, how does a girl get a double-mocha latte around here? And I want EXTRA whipped cream on that! Yes, wasn't Helen Keller AMAZING? I think God or whatever forces are out there took her sight and hearing for a very special reason, so she could fine-tune her other senses and see the world the way it REALLY was (and is, in all the many dimensions that there are). | ||
| L. A. B. Senior Member Username: leathab Post Number: 6628 Registered: 12-2003 |
There's plenty of "rassleberry" glazed, Sal's constantly cookin'. Helen Keller reminds me of those children on 60 minutes tonight, who were born blind and mentally challenged but were 'Savant' in music and could play anything, hearing multiple tones, at the same time and reproduce it. What is taken away in one area, is given in another. It's amazing what the human brain is capable of and we only use 10%. | ||

Slobbered on, yes, but Oh, the *LOVE*!!! Nothin' like dog slobber to make you feel needed and appreciated in this cold old world Sal, I need a triple iced mocha (non-fat milk) and a steak and eggs breakfast (Hey, it's only 10 AM here!). Got a lot to do today. And things have been so quiet in here that the kitchen actually cooled off--c'mon guys, we need to get Sal off her beehind and back to work, slaving at a hot grill, or she won't think we love her "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross."

I think I'll join you for breakfast, Patricia. Been dieting too long, let's see, hmmmm. How about some french toast with lots of real butter and real maple syrup, a tall glass of whole milk and a pot of hazlenut coffee with cream? Things have been busy here, sorry I haven't stopped in for a while.What's new? Humans believe they are devils pretending to be angels when, in fact, the reverse is true. |
