"There’s no way to measure his greatness or magnitude as a person or as a player. I don’t think eulogizing will do him justice. He was that great - much more than a superb musician with an uncanny ear and dexterity. He is the very spirit personified of whatever is muddy river country at its core and screams up into the spheres. He really had no equal. To me he wasn’t only a musician and friend, he was more like a big brother who taught and showed me more than he’ll ever know. There are a lot of spaces and advances between the Carter Family, Buddy Holly and, say, Ornette Coleman, a lot of universes, but he filled them all without being a member of any school. His playing was moody, awesome, sophisticated, hypnotic and subtle. There’s no way to convey the loss. It just digs down really deep." - Bob Dylan

Three Filters

2007-08-08T17:19:00.000-04:00

In ancient Greece, Socrates was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem. One day an acquaintance met the great philosopher and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?"

"Hold on a minute," Socrates replied. "Before telling me anything I’d like you to pass a little test. It"s called the Three Filters Test."

"Three Filters?"

"That’s right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you’re going to say. That’s why I call it the Three Filters Test.

The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"

"No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and..."

"All right," said Socrates. "So you don’t really know if it"s true or not. Now let"s try the second filter, the filter of goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?"

"No, on the contrary..."

"So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, but you’re not certain it"s true. You may still pass the test though, because there’s one filter left: the filter of usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?"

"No, not really."

"Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?"

This is why Socrates was a great philosopher & held in such high esteem.

Must be pretty tough work, hey?

Blog Slacker

2007-07-20T23:18:00.000-04:00

I'm a slacker alright. Somewhere along the line the time to blog diminished and I have been gone but gratefully not forgotten. Spicybug honored me the the ROCKIN' GIRL BLOGGER Award and I have never turned down a meme so why start now! So here are my

5 Rockin' Gals!

1. Jane rocks through thick and thin. She puts it all out there, take it or leave it. She has a tell-it-like-it-is style that will make you laugh one day and cry the next. She rocks!

2. I have long admired Poppy for her ability to just blog, blog, blog and have such an obviously great time doing it! She is so completely and totally real.

3. I miss Red over at Lip Schtick. Her dry, blunt posts always made me laugh. Hope she is somewhere rockin~Come back for a visit sometime Red!

4. Trudging is an Outright Mental Defective by her own definition. All I can say is.....sobriety rocks!

5. Jen is a busy Mom who knits, camps and rocks! She is well deserving of this most prestigious award. She is one wild and crazy gal!

Rock on Ladies and name 5 of your own
favorite if you are so inclined.
If you're too busy rockin', I understand!

HIS SHIPP'S COME IN!

2007-04-02T18:06:00.000-04:00

In stock now!

Jeremy Shipp conceived and gave birth to the Secret Santa Program for bloggers but it seems his creativity goes way beyond. His new book (and I say new because he has several others - who knew?) is now available on AMAZON.COM. There are a lot of great reviews but I have to say, this one strike’s my fancy:

"This is an intriguing, challenging, literate, provocative novel I’m not sure I understand and suspect I’m not meant to… I recommend it to those who find reality boring; it may make them see it in new ways."
— Piers Anthony, author of the Xanth series

Now, who doesn’t find reality boring every now and then? Be honest!

Congratulations Jeremy!

How do YOU define rich?

2007-03-18T08:11:00.000-04:00

I recently posted the nominees for America’s Richest People on another site and was surprised to see a follow-up comment from an annoyed reader of the article. It seems she misunderstood the term "rich" as it was being used. I emailed her, she went back and read more on the project and understood that the wealth they were referring to was their richness in terms of what they do for society and what they give back - not financial, not money. She edited her comment. (Thanks Jen.)

I understand where she would misinterpret this article but it really got me to thinking about how often it is that we value wealth and the tangible rather than the true gifts we have or have given. I think Tim Richardson, founder of the project, describes it best as he summarizes it:

"This positive project aims to redefine richness and focus media attention on internal rather than external wealth. After all, Richardson says, "It’s not about how good you are, it’s about what good you do."

Have a good day!

I'd like to give credit where credit is due~

Zen Stories

Moving Mind

Two men were arguing about a flag flapping in the wind.

"It’s the wind that is really moving," stated the first one.

"No, it is the flag that is moving," contended the second.

A Zen master, who happened to be walking by, overheard the debate and interrupted them.

"Neither the flag nor the wind is moving," he said, "It is MIND that moves."

Dead woman wins election

2006-11-09T17:48:00.000-05:00

How could you not love this?

WASHINGTON: Marie Steichen died two months ago but she won a battle to become a county commissioner for a small South Dakota town in the US elections, an official said.

Jerauld county auditor Cindy Peterson said that the election list closed on August 1, and while Steichen died from cancer in September her name was kept on the list for Tuesday's election.

Steichen beat a Republican rival by 100 votes to 64 and Peterson said she believed that voters knew the woman was dead but wanted to make their political point.

A meme for Jane

2006-09-14T17:54:00.000-04:00

I guess it's been a while since I've done one (or 12) of these. This one, word association. Jay "the troublemaker" responded to her request with a twist and I will do the same. He's so inspirational, that Jay. I figured if Jane let Jay get away with changing the rules, then maybe she wouldn't mind so much if I did!
I have cut way down on my blogging activity lately and have some points to spare so I will leave this open until the end of the month. Whoever comes up with the most interesting sentence using ALL THESE WORDS will be transferred 200 BE credits. And just so you know......there is such a thing as a chocolate salmon!

And now I give you my word association:

1. kiss - my
2. headache - pain
3. religion - organized
4. fish - salmon
5. chocolate - yes

There you have it!

Going through piles, bags, albums and shoeboxes full of old pictures can be fun. You can do if for hours if you're in the right mood. In fact, the time goes by so quickly you don't even realize it's way past your bedtime. Now go lay down and try and sleep. Good luck with that. And the dreams! I was up every hour or two ALL NIGHT LONG. When going through your old photo's, take caution!

Vince Welnick Dies at age 51

2006-06-03T17:28:00.000-04:00

I am deeply saddened by this news and thank my fellow Deadhead bloggers for their posts.

Sad news for Deadheads everywhere today as we mourn the death of Vince Welnick, the last keyboardist for The Grateful Dead. According to the Mercury News, an unofficial spokesman at the Welnick home said that "It looks like he took his own life.'' If that is true, then this tragedy is even greater in magnitude. Vince admitted that he fell into a deep depression after Jerry's death in '95. Apparently, he never fully recovered, and as a result, could not go on in this world any longer.

Along with Ben, I send my condolences to his friends and family.

THIS JUST IN!

2006-05-29T20:29:00.000-04:00

Bruce is still The Boss! It was a nice long weekend that didn't start out so nice (but the Vermont Trooper was a nice guy, even likes The Dead) nor did it end so nice (uh...boy trouble) but everything is the middle was just perfect. The band (20 of them) was perfect, the setlist was perfect, weather was perfect, company was perfect and Bruce, well I can't say enough about him. He is a pro and I don't think anyone could see him live and deny that. He knows exactly where to go with the crowd and what to do with them when we get there. The Pete Seeger Sessions was just the perfect progression for him from Devils and Dust.
Growing up with Bruce I realized as I watched him for the umpteenth time that he is the one musician from my early childhood that has stayed with me (and I with him) through thick and thin. Always there, always buying the ticket, always a great show. He is Bruce and there is no one like him. No one. And you can take the girl out of Jersey but you can't take The Boss out of the girl!

**Footnote: My love for The Dead and Jerry Garcia began much later in my life - in my young adulthood. That love is no less. That love will Not Fade Away.

Stay out all night, it's gonna feel all right

2006-05-22T19:03:00.000-04:00

Ok - so I know it is extremely unlikely that I will hear Rosalita on the Seeger Sessions Tour but hey.....that's just fine with me. I haven't seen The Boss in a few years and I am way overdue and really looking forward to this show! I'll be thrilled with "John Henry", "Oh Mary" and any of the other 14 tracks on this CD but one has to wonder how he will fill the rest of the show. I can say this....he has NEVER disappointed me!

I signed, sealed and reached for his envelope so I could address it. Putting it next to my envelope, this is what I saw. We are currently using the same stamps except he had one upside down and I got mine right side up this time! So, he, like me, keeps himself stocked up on stamps and got caught when the postage went up. We both had the same 37 centers and went and purchased the same 2 centers. What are the odds? I wonder how many people are out there using these same stamps and even more curiously, how many have corresponded with each other at the time. I thought it was pretty cool.

Happy Mother's Day Mom!

Not having even a small fire escape in the city, it had been several years since I was able to do any "gardening". I began rather small last year with some herbs and ended up 5 for 5, no problems. This year, I have branched out a little to include some vegetables and flowers. We'll see what happens, hey?

I really have to wonder?

How many people who are bitching and moaning about border issues will be out "celebrating" Cinco de Mayo today? Just a thought. Carry on.

If I drop anything, I'm screwed....

.................because today bending down is a real chore. I went for a "hike" with my guy yesterday. OK - I know how to walk. Hiking is walking in rough(er) terrain, right? RIGHT! Hiking is NOT rock climbing. As it turned out the hike was just the start of the "adventure". We climbed these rocks (White Rocks, Wallingford, Vermont) which in some cases were boulders. A little more traction would have been nice. The sneakers I had were a little worn. Also, some sort of protection on the palms of the hands would have been useful.
It should be noted that on the way to the mountain, we stopped at a local convenience/deli type place for a quick sandwich. On the way out, there is about a 2 inch step down. I fell. That's right, I fell. Now, do you think that falling off a 2 inch curb was a good indication that climbing up (and back down, mind you) may not have been the best idea for this girl on this particular day? But NO, on we go!
When all was said and done, I made it up and back down but in the future I will certainly be more prepared. Oh wait, I would have to have the information beforehand, now wouldn't I!

Update, May 2 - "A little perspective"
So here's the uh....rocks? (Boulders!) That little blue speck around the center. Yup, that would be me.

Which is it?

I understand the slang and even appreciate it from time to time. But which is correct and why the different versions? They all seem acceptable but why the variations, I wonder. Maybe it's a geographical thing?

If I weren't feeling so lazy right now I would look for one of those poll thingys. If anyone has a link to get one I'd appreciate if. But for now, I'll just leave this open for comments.

So which do you use, and why?

Junk Mail Help!

2006-04-17T20:26:00.000-04:00

THESE ARE WONDERFUL IDEAS AND DARE I SAY......SOUNDS LIKE FUN!

When you get "ads" enclosed with your phone or utility bill, return these "ads" with your payment. Let the sending companies throw their own junk mail away.

When you get those "pre-approved" letters in the mail for everything from credit cards to 2nd mortgages and similar type junk, do not throw away the return envelope.
Most of these come with postage-paid return envelopes, right? It costs them more than the regular 37 cents postage "IF" and when they receive them back.
It costs them nothing if you throw them away! Why not get rid of some of your other junk mail and put it in these cool little, postage-paid return envelopes.

One of Andy Rooney's (60 minutes) ideas.
Send an ad for your local chimney cleaner to American Express. Send a pizza coupon to Citibank. If you didn't get anything else that day, then just send them their blank application back! If you want to remain anonymous, just make sure your name isn't on anything you send them. You can even send the envelope back empty if you want to just to keep them guessing! It still costs them 37 cents.

The banks and credit card companies are currently getting a lot of their own junk back in the mail, but folks, we need to OVERWHELM them. Let's let them know what it's like to get lots of junk mail, and best of all they're paying for it...Twice!

Let's help keep our postal service busy since they are saying that e-mail is cutting into their business profits, and that's why they need to increase postage costs again. You get the idea!

Hey? Say what?

Have a Happy Holiday All!
