Life as Metaphor

 sewed all day, and brainstormed on the paper of hazardous waste... i will write the drafts tomorrow and hopefully i'll be able to edit/upload it but i am feeling a bit optimistic about that (the word count limit is only 350-700)...

something interesting that popped up in conversation today was just in-house chit-chat.. a Schubert song was playing on the classical-masterpieces channel (on TV)... Jonathan smiled and said "i always loved Schubert, one of my favorite composers, but i'm not sure why"....

so of course all of us present had to add our 2 shekels.... Seamus immediately said Mozart (NO surprise), Wesley smirked and said that he bet it was because Mozart was so orderly and nearly pompous (Seamus refused to laugh at this, but i knew he wanted to haha).... Wesley claimed Chopin is his favorite, "simple, elegant, much 'space' around the notes," and of course, piano being Wesley's instrument.... Jules claimed Beethoven (a passionate artist, again, no surprise)...

when it came to me i confessed Bach (yes, i smirked).... i saw Seamus roll his eyes a bit, he isn't really into Bach if it is played on harpsichord, it sound to "messy" to him... but that is what i love of the sounds, proof that there is harmony in chaotic systems....

here are a few pics of recent sewing, but no power-walk (been too busy with school)..
time to take my satellite screen-shots and go to sleep...
shalom! - Juju & co.

all of them of "suspicious" origin.... number i heard last was "9" of them between 2ish-3ish last night, all of them were put out posthaste, but 2 people died.... i'm really shocked actually...

word is spreading faster than the fires though, and people of NoHo (and elsewhere in the Valley) are banding together and rushing to "be there" for those who were hurt....

i'm not at all shocked to hear that part.

everyone is terrified about what is going to happen when the System finally does go kapput (please G-d, NOW!) and i'll tell you what will happen.... we will be terrified, and devastated, and there will be idiotic-System-worshippers who tear out their hair and gnash their teeth (and probably do a bit of looting and stampeding over the weak/etc.) but once those moronic lemmings go ahead and leap to their death, the rest of us will be able to just shrug it off and go ahead and live our lives, and WHILE doing so, we WILL "be there" and take care of each other.

sorry if you disagree, but that is what i've seen (in random disaster/crises here and there throughout this life) so that is my story, and i'm sticking to it.

Nola will have Blackwater mercenaries on the streets again, to "protect" the Money (post-storm), because it is Money that is vulnerable in these situations, and it could be fondled, or stolen(!), or attacked, or become sick/injured or dehydrated or starve to death.... yes. the MONEY could DIE. (G-d forbid)


these mercenaries who may or may not be US citizens, and who may or may not know what an American's Constitutional Rights are.


they know how to shoot though. you can count on that.
