Evenin' pholks! Looks like I missed quite a bit this weekend! We went visiting in Virginia to my BILs house. My phirst event in about 1 year. Glad to be home, tho' it was nice to see them all.

Em...glad to hear your dad's doing all right. Scary business, all of it. I'll keep you all in my prayers.

Psuesszy...you are sounding a bit better....hope you are. Glad you got out for a few larphs , even if it was in disgusted amusement.

Catch wiv you all later....luvin' all of the Kitteh/pupper stories...a lot! (Am greatly interested in hearing the cause of Stinkehs stink!)

Pzuezhee's foul mouthed neighboUrs!!!!!!!!!!!

MYGAWD Sooze! You did the right thing I believe ..... took the high road!!

I'm afraid I may have matched 'em wiv their profanities and told 'em to 'stuff their liittle snivelling yappy dogs ....erm somewhere dark and gloomy'

well, most of my life I would have LUNGED toward the fence and screamed at them (not profanities, EVER) and - caused a scene

Am calmer without gluten......less combative

In fact, here's a mean thing I thought of doing today.......

Was pondering taking a walk, and actually walking by their fence ('tis Sunday, they're home) with Weezee on a LEASH. They'll hear the usual ruckus with their dogs, and come RUNNING out, upper body lunging over fence.......and I"ll just look at her, expressionless.

Sophie says I need to videotape them on me cell phone. Am pondering it, it's verbal harassment, she says, as no one's been hurt and the dogs are just being DOGS, fer gawd's sake.

But, that's just being petty and mean-spirited........God would know about my evil intent.

Do you secretly think she's crazy and homicidal, adn NOT harmless?

Dreamed that President Obama was gay, and sleeping with a man who wore a Humpty Dumpty egg costume, with just his face showing through.......and I was the only one who knew about it.

One of my best ones ever Kept pondering it throughout the night but cannot fathom -

what does it mean?????

Well let's see........

Let's suppose that Humpty Dumpty represents the country, since all the King's (President's....this referring to Bush) horses and men couldn't put Humpty (the country) together again. So obviously you think Obama is going to f*** up the country!

GAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

No, not really

but LOVE your dream analysis, Leesargh

[curlyfries]

And in another dream.......in Monterey, somewhere near the Naval Postgraduate School, a HUGE eruption of ancient cordless phones (the gigantic first ones that were invented) from the earth.........thousands of phones that contained sensitive, explosive and/or military information? can\\\'t remember but \\\'twas dangerous

Maybe something or someone from your past is re-entering your life, but is quite toxic to you.....beware!

This is fun ......let me take a stab at this one.......

Your best friend from middle school was a guy, so he represents people who can be a threat to your relationship with your boyfriend. The grandmother represents your boyfriend......very sweet, but will do whatever it takes to protect your relationship!

or........the best friend represents gluten and you (grandma) are prepared to fight it off and bury it from sight forever ......have you been tempted lately?

[elye]

but was he gay??????????

It is a superb question. There may be much unearthed symbolism within this old rhyme .. . ....

Young Man Dumpty teetered on the Wall (Society), insecure in his sexual "difference" and fearful of the surrounding homophobia and intolerance....he fell into deep despair (and hence, off the "wall"). . ... . .....a broken man emotionally and spiritually, he could not be put back together by his guidance counsellor (king) or subsequent psychiatric professionals.

This does make sense. . . . . . .

Now, I dunno where in hell yer new president fits into all this. . . . ....must ponder this further. . .. . .

am absolutely MAD for the dream and nursery rhyme analysis going on here

[DingoGirl]

had a discussion of Voice of Fire with my friend Sophie, whose whole family is in the art world. We had to google it - - look at the description of the painting this guy gives:

Think not of it as a pathway of a 'sequence' of gedankenexperiment simpletons where heir-lines are a prima facie case of a paradiachronic transitivity. Rather think of it as a chain strength possibility of what, eventually, comes out as a product of epistemic conditions, considered as the reciprocal substitution of semiotic material for a dialogical product in a dynamic reflexion.

I just LOVE that stuff

what in hell

Translation: I don't know what in he!! I'm talking about, so neither will anyone else.

[psawyer]

So, is Voice of Fire a red stripe on a blue background, or is it two blue stripes on a red background? Inquiring minds want to know.

On a related query, what coloUr is the Canadian flag? The heraldic description is

Gules on a Canadian pale argent a maple leaf of the first.

I think that decodes as white with two red stripes and a maple leaf, which also happens to be red.

I'm too tired to work out either answer at the moment. Good night, all.

Some of those aren't even real WORDS!!!!!

This just in!

Despite their stellar track record, All the King's Horses' reconstructive efforts have fallen short. It is suspected that All the King's Men will be summoned to .. ..uhh ... ..take a crack at it?

Morning, Gang!

That quote of Newmans'

I actually studied him a little whilst at Ottawa U.....I do remember some incredible word choice and imaginative spinning in his musings on works being marketed.

I clearly remember one afternoon when a large debate started amongst three visual arts students and the professor....it was the afternoon that I left campus knowing I was switching majors. The argument was whether "Voice of Fire", which at the time our gallery had just purchased, was more emotionally charged, more tragic, more apocalyptic than "Twelfth Station":

http://www.poster.net/newman-barnett/newma...965-3500791.webp

Which piece should be proclaimed Newman's new masterpiece? Which work has him more agonized, more in despair over the fate of modern humanity?

Yes, this was debated for the better part of an afternoon.

I collected my concentration coursework, and headed over to the English department.

So, is Voice of Fire a red stripe on a blue background, or is it two blue stripes on a red background? Inquiring minds want to know.

Now THIS is worth debating!

Guess we would have to ask Mr. Newman. . . . . . .

<dem's some talented muthaf**** horses>

Yep....this is what convinces me fully that there is some deep symbolism woven into this verse. Who or what are those horses, really? Attempting to help this tortured, fragile-like-an-eggshell soul.. . . . ..

Barnett Newman would have a great answer.

Presidential dreams continued

My dream the night before the inauguration:

I am in the metro with Barach Obama, he is sitting on the left

he says "I have $100,000 and I will divide it between everyone on the train"

What does this mean? Everyone gets a bonus

[DingoGirl]
