I-DOLT-ARY

                                        The rats just sat there apparently CONTENT with their own passivity .   It wasn't just political idolatry, it was political I-DOLT-ARY .   They could have worn their rape whistles --- they could have stood up when the trumpists stood AND BLOWN THEIR WHISTLES --- I mean shit that woulda-been* SOMETHING !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Instead ---well you know INSTEAD ... .

Rats

                                           I expected NOTHING form the democrats  and I was RICHLY REWARDED !  

                              1st off :  a few didn't even bother to attend

                               2nd off :  some of those that did attend had a few Epstein Survivors nearby 

                              3rd off  :   when teams fail to show-up Officials declare FORFEIT --- which then                                                           GIVES their opponents an EFFORTLESS VICTORY

                               4th off  :   what was the intended purpose of the presence of the Epstein Survivors

                                                IT LOOKED LIKE THE RATS HAD NO PURPOSE

Miss Represent

                                              I watched trump last night hoping to witness a catastrophic mental failure that would resemble a stroke or seizure .   Instead I saw an old man deliver an oration that had as its major component LIES.   His opening statement was a BOLDFACE LIE .   Indeed, after EVERY FUCKING LIE trumpists rewarded him with a STANDING OVATION .   This after almost EVERY FUCKING SENTENCE .   THEY WELCOMED HIS LIES with cheers ad applause to demonstrate their fealty, loyalty and UNITY .   They were up and down like Jacks in the Box.

                                           One's 'livelihood' is most demonstrably a Definition of One's Existence---we have all heard, "You are what you do" .   If you cut hair for a living you may be a barber or hairdresser---there are blue collar occupations-the trades and the like- and white collar professions -- all to be correctly viewed as Definitions of Existence .   I've heard RESOUNDING dismay expressed as "I'm NOT  just a fucking hairdresser,,,I am SOOO MUCH MORE !!!"   I agree BUT  what is this  MORE ?

                      We will explore the More in future efforts .

Miss Givings

                                     I mean, shit, when you're a raging alcoholic is fucking EZ to conduct an inventory, you don't have far to go,,, no need for "in-depth" penetration .  But what about the rest of Humankind---those of us that ca't seem to find "Peace of Mind" ???   We are assailed by doubt, misgivings, quantifiable dis-trust and {obsequious} moral outrage ?

                   Modern Zen Master Mick Jagger has asked, "So what can a poor boy do ?" and answered, "Sing in a Rock + Roll band" .   Almost all of us ain't-gonna be the front man of our local band however, it is IMPERATIVE to note that 'singing in a R+R band' DEFINES Jagger's Existence .  So --- what are the things that DEFINE one's Existence  ?   We can ask, "Who am I" and "What do I DO ???"  Great Start !!

Dr. Allen Wheelis

                                             From the front flap of How People Change Allen Wheelis =

                                    Dr. Wheelis, noted psychiatrist and author,wirtes here of those fears and sufferings which disturb people who have enough to eat and a place to live, but who feel guilty, believing their despair can't be real or justified while others suffer basic physical deprivation .  Acknowledging the differences, he asserts the importance of mental health and proceeds to illustrate various situations in which people find themselves, more damaged by their own self-imposed restrictions than by actual circumstances ."

                   Dr. Wheelis insists that the first necessity of Change is to establish the Mind's PRESENT location .   AA refers to this THIS as `conducting an inventory of one's Self` .  Easily said ... but .

                        

Miss Givings

                                            A quasi-recovering but still sublimely wretched hippie-dude once confessed :   "I use to be all messed-up on drugs and alcohol, now I'm all messed-up on the Lord" .   Healthier rite* ?

                       There can be no true 'beginning' without first a commitment to one's self .   One of the four primary Aspects of Zen is "Seeing into one's self and the attainment of Buddha-hood .    Steve Winwood cajoles, "Look inside your Heart, I'll look inside mine."   This THIS necessitates, HOW do I look inside and further HOW to I look inside my mind ?
