Share,

Your story gives a valuable lesson.  But it takes a while to learn what life is 
trying to tell us.  Plus, the planetary conjunction of Mars and Saturn at this 
time is not good for the temper.

The big question for us is what affect do super siddhi brains 
have on the ability to generate random numbers? Ought to do
something if it can create "positivity" at a distance.

This is the sort of experiment MUM could do and then come up
with an explanation as to why some things are affected and not
others.

Wouldn't it be great if the existence listened to the words of the kind,
gentle, sweet Share and blessed me with someone with this attitude -
"She behaves as if she were beautiful, it's the secret of their(American
women) charm". Sure the existence has been cruel to my innocent desire
so far - but would it dare to be as cruel to the loving Share? Have her
words fallen on deaf ears like my pain, agony and desire for love? Is it
too late, am I too old at 41 - are my minuses overwhelming compared to
my pluses?
In spite of my mystical experiences - like emptybill & Alex have said in
the past - I'm innately a bhogi, a yogi was the byproduct of my pain and
suffering. I have always felt that the inner journey should reflect the
outer - the outer shouldn't be denied - hence I rail against the
life-abnegating, sexually, repressed, perverted saints beguiling,
bewitching the naive, gullible with their pseudo-celibacy,
pseudo-renunciation and pseudo-humility.

talents. But that was not my nature - I just wasn't going to be preying
on young women like Maharishi Mahesh Yogi because unlike him, I don't

[FairfieldLife] Where's Vaj?

[sparaig]

Last message was from August 10. Did he overpost or is he on vacation?

I ask because someone calling themselves "guru_dev" and referring to MMY as 
"good ole Mahesh" has started posting on the 
http://www.reddit.com/r/transcendental forum and I was just wondering if they 
were the same person.

There have been devices purporting to generate "real" random numbers available 
for years. It is possible that this particular one is "more random" than the 
others, but using radioactive decay as the source for random numbers has been 
used for years.

Using virtual particles, which is what they are apparently doing, seems pretty 
cool though.

you wrote it this way, 'it is within God's power to determine the creature to

Perhaps Judy can explain this to me, for I am sure your commentary would pass 
me by.

 "I would love to see what Susan, Emily, Judy, Share come up with. If I 
have missed someone, my apologies."

Ha ha ha.  Can you believe the Doc arrived on this scene given the last 24 
hours?  Aaahhh, ha ha ha.  I am in a serious giggle on this - sorry.  Re: 
naming.  Ann, Emilymae.reyn *is* the handle I came up with.  I am actually 
named something else.  It is the *best* I can do as I love the name Emily and 
it "may rain" at any point here.  Not necessarily very *bad girl*, I do agree.  
I would *love* to hear what you would come up with. Oh, cheese puffs.

Yes, thanks Raunchy. I love the name Pussy Riot by the way. Let's see if I can 
think of a handle for myself that might reflect this type of self statement. 
H, I'll get back to you, I know there is just the thing out there but I 
haven't ever thought about it before. Without sounding like Barry, how about 
all the women here come up with one for themselves? I would love to see what 
Susan, Emily, Judy, Share come up with. If I have missed someone, my apologies.

Dear Xeno,

I want to thank you for taking the time to sit and plug away at the computer, 
to take time away from the normal things you were doing earlier, like watching 
a play, spending time with family, to write some reflections here. For some 
reason I always get a good feeling when I read your posts. Sometimes I do not 
understand your point of view and sometimes I actually disagree but throughout 
it all I sense a quiet, intelligent, cultured human being who I would be happy 
to meet with in person. I never feel your hostility or your anger. You do not 
appear to hold grudges or to pursue lines of negativity for the sake of being 
negative or to one-up another. All of these things I gravitate towards in 
another person, and in this case, in you. 

I don't actually know anything of your history, your spiritual pursuits, your 
areas of expertise or your purported state of consciousness. I think somewhere 
it has been mentioned that you may be in some other than waking state. Or maybe 
I just misread or imagined that. Maybe it has nothing to do with our 
conversation or why I find you so soothing when you write. But I do. Perhaps at 
some point you could clarify for me this point because it could lead to some 
reflections on my part.

Ann, Doc is a guy. His name says to me he's secure in his own self-worth and 
doesn't mind laughing at himself. He even invites us to laugh along with him. I 
like that about him. 

You're right. Women are not likely to adopt names implying "dumb." Most women 
don't choose a handle to make a statement about who they are. But a few of us 
who do, are likely to choose bad girl names, such as raunchydog or "Pussy 
Riot." It's an in your face way of saying "We are women, we will not be 
censored, deal with it." 

"Pussy Riot" is a Russian feminist punk-rock band based in Moscow. They got 
into trouble with the Russian government recently for protesting Vladimir Putin 
and the Russian Orthodox Church in Moscow's Cathedral of Christ the Savior. 
Three women in the group were charged with hooliganism. They are now serving 
two years in prison.

Thank goodness Rick and Alex have minimum rules for censorship. It keeps the 
place lively. I've been following the "Pussy Riot" story. Here's the latest:

Any bets The Dr is male? No woman would give herself the handle "dumbass". Just

Urban myth, Cary Grant never said that.

Welcome aboard. Do you prefer being called Doc, Doctor or Dumbass? Rank 
armpits...good one. It appeals to my grade school sense of humor.

[FairfieldLife] Is true randomness possible?

[Yifu]

Yes...from Wired, Sept 2012:
...
"But now scientists at the Australian National University have introduced a 
technique for generating 5.7 billion truly random values per second.  They do 
it by harnessing the fundamental uncertainity of the universe. Their technique 
measures quantum phenomena in a box completely devoid of photons, where ghostly 
virtual particles randomly burble in and out of existence 24/7. "God does not 
play dice," Einstein famously quipped in response to evidence that randomness 
rules the cosmos. Luckily, he was wrong". (Wired article by Jonathon Keats).

[FairfieldLife] Saint Therese of Lisieux

[Robin Carlsen]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thérèse_de_Lisieux
http://www.amazon.com/Story-Soul-Autobiography-Therese-Lisieux/dp/0935216588

Some quotations:

Coming out of the confessional I was so happy and light-hearted that I had 
never felt so much joy in my soul. Since then I've gone to confession on all 
the great feasts, and it was truly a *feast* for me each time.

In one instant, I understood what life was; until then, I had never seen it so 
sad; but it appeared to me in all its reality, and I saw it was nothing but 
continual suffering and separation. I shed bitter tears because I did not yet 
understand the *joy* of sacrifice.

The sickness which overtook me certainly came from the demon; infuriated by 
your [her sister] entrance into Carmel, he wanted to take revenge on me for the 
wrong our family was to do to him in the future. He did not know that the sweet 
Queen of heaven was watching over her fragile little flower, that she  *was 
smiling* on her from her throne in heaven and was preparing to stop the storm 
the moment her flower was to break without any hope of recovery.

This sickness was not "unto death,' but like that of Lazarus it was to give 
glory to God. And God was glorified by the admirable resignation of my poor 
little *Father*, who thought his "*little girl was going crazy or was about to 
die*".

God gave me the grace of knowing the *world* just enough to despise it and 
separate myself from it.

I don't believe one can taste joy anywhere else but in religious communities.

My heart, sensitive and affectionate as it was, would have easily surrendered 
had it found a heart capable of understanding it. I tried to make friends with 
little girls my own age, and especially with two of them. I loved them and they 
in turn, loved me insofar as they were *capable*. But alas! how *narrow* and 
*flighty* is the heart of creatures.

How can I thank Jesus for making me find "*only bitterness in earth's 
friendships*!" With a heart such as mine, I would have allowed myself to be 
taken and my wings to be clipped, and then how would I have been able to "*fly 
and be at rest*?" How can a heart given over to the affection of creatures be 
intimately united with God? I feel this is not possible.

But I know that Jesus *has forgiven me more* than *St Mary Magdalene* since He 
forgave me *in advance* by preventing me from falling.

I have heard it said that one cannot meet a pure soul who loves more than a 
repentant soul; ah! how I would wish to give the lie to this statement!

One lady said I had pretty hair; another, when she was leaving, believing she 
was not overhard, asked who the very beautiful young girl was. These words, all 
the more flattering since they were not spoken in my presence, left in my soul 
a pleasurable impression that showed me clearly how much I was filled with 
self-love.

This was my consolation, for was not Jesus my *only* *Friend*? I knew how to 
speak only to Him; conversations with creatures, even pious conversations, 
fatigued my soul. I felt it was far more valuable to speak to God than to speak 
about Him, for there is so much self-love intermingled with spiritual 
conversations!

It was December 25, 1886, that I received the grace of leaving my childhood, in 
a word, the grace of my complete conversion. We had come back from Midnight 
Mass where I had the happiness of receiving the *strong* and *powerful* God.

Ah! [Trip to Rome, "the Eternal City"] what a trip that was! It taught me more 
than long years of studies; it showed me the vanity of everything that happens 
and that *everything is affliction of spirit under the sun*.

The religious life appeared to me *exactly as it is* with its *subjections*, 
its small sacrifices carried out in the shadows.

My mortifications consisted in breaking my will, always so ready to impose 
itself on others, in holding back a reply, in rendering little services without 
any recognition, in not leaning my back against  a support when seated, etc., 
etc.

As soon as Jesus descended into the hearts of my relatives [she was about to 
enter Carmel], I heard noting around me but sobs. I was the only one who didn't 
shed any tears, but my heart was beating *so violently* it seemed impossible to 
walk when they signaled to me to come to the enclosure door.

Ah! I was fully recompensed for all my trials. With what deep joy I repeated 
those words: "I am here forever and ever!"

Nice, thanks. Brings back old memories of living in Iowa. I used to horseshow

[FairfieldLife] Your free will, God, and grace: the person in action

[Robin Carlsen]

. . . there is a scale or range of pitch which is also infinite and terminates 
upwards in the directness or uprightness of the 'stem' of the godhead and the 
procession of the divine persons. God then can shift the self that lies in one 
to a higher, that is/better, pitch of itself; that is/to a pitch or 
determination of itself on the side of the good. But here arises a darker 
difficulty still; for how can we tell that each self has, in particular, any 
such better self, any such range from bad to good? In the abstract there is 
such a range of pitch and conceivably a self to be found, actually or possibly, 
at each pitch in it, but how can *each* self have all these pitches? for this 
seems contrary to its freedom; the more so as if we look at the exhibition of 
moral freedom in life, at men's lives and history, we find not only that in the 
same circumstances and seemingly with the same graces they behave differently, 
not only they do not range as fast from bad to good or good to bad one as 
another, but, even what is most intrinsic to a man, the influence of his own 
past and of the preexisting disposition of will with which he comes to action 
seems irregular and now he does well, now he sins, bids fair to be a sinner and 
becomes a saint or bids fair to be a saint and falls away, and indeed goes 
through vicissitudes of all sorts and changes times without number.

This matter is profound; but so far as I see this is the truth. First, though 
self, as personality, is prior to nature it is not prior to pitch. If there 
were something prior even to pitch, of which that pitch would be itself the 
pitch, then we could suppose that that, like everything else, was subject to 
God's will and could be pitched, could be determined, this way or that. But 
this is really saying that a thing is and is not itself, is and is not A, is 
and is not. For self before nature is no thing as yet but only possible; with 
the accession of a nature it becomes properly a self, for instance a person: 
only so far as it is prior to nature, that is to say/so far as it is a definite 
self, the possibility of a definite self (and not merely the possibility of a 
number or fetch of nature) it is identified with pitch, moral pitch, 
determination of right and wrong. And so far, it has its possibility, as it 
will have its existence, from God, but not so that God makes pitch no pitch, 
determination no determination, and indifference indifference. The 
indifference, the absence of pitch, is in the nature to be superadded. And when 
nature is superadded, then it cannot be believed, as the Thomists think, that 
in every circumstance of free choice the person is of himself indifferent 
towards the alternatives and that God determines which he shall, though freely, 
choose. The difficulty does not lie so much in his being determined by God and 
yet choosing freely, for on one side that may and must happen, but in his being 
supposed equally disposed or pitched towards both at once. This is impossible 
and destroys the notion of freedom and of pitch.

Nevertheless in every circumstance it is within God's power to determine the 
creature to choose, and freely choose, according to his will; but not without a 
change or access of circumstance, over and above the bare act of determination 
on his part. This access is either of grace, which is 'supernature', to nature 
or of more grace to grace already given, and it takes the form of instressing 
the affective will, of affecting the will towards the good which he proposes. 
So far this is a necessary and constrained affection on the creature's part, to 
which the *arbitrium* of the creature may give its avowal and consent. 
Ordinarily when grace is given we feel first the necessary or constrained act 
and after that the free act on own part, of consent or refusal as the case may 
be. This consent or refusal is given to an act either hereafter or now to be 
done, but in the nature of things such an act must always be future, even if 
immediately future or of those futures which arise in acts and phrases like 'I 
must ask you' to do so-and-so, 'I wish to apologize', 'I beg to say', and so 
on, And ordinarily the motives for refusal are still present though the motive 
for consent has been strengthened by the motion, just over or even in some way 
still working, of grace. And therefore in ordinary cases refusal is possible 
not only physically but also morally and often takes place. But refusal 
remaining physically possible becomes morally (and strictly) impossible in the 
following way.

. . . Therefore in that 'cleave' of being which each of his creatures shews to 
God's eyes alone (or in the 'burl' of being/uncloven) God can choose countless 
points in the strain (or countless cleaves of the 'burl') where the creature 
has consented, does consent, to God's will in the way above shewn. But these 
may be away, may be very far away, from the actual pitch at any given moment 
existing. It is i

Rx for you Dr, the Ph.D Judy knows of what she speaks. I think she may be

King Baby - I think Amma's cult could use your slandering skills, there
is nothing in what I posted in May 2010 which would objectively indicate
I was threat either to myself or my ex. We had a discussion about this
very topic here, back in Dec 2011, but then you, of the soliloquy
slanders, of the emotionally stunted intellect, don't read anything else
here and here you are 2 years & a few months later still repeating the
same garbage.
Where is the spirit of inquiry here, the openness, the investigation?
The subtleties, complexities of this issue, of my journey, of my
mystical experiences - which have been documented by me here, by the
various analyses by Robin on this issue. I have never walked away from
discussing these issues, however painful they may have been, taking
accountability for my words, my actions, apologizing for my actions,
words, incorporating other's feedback into my actions, especially Judy,
Robin. You have never asked any tough questions, you don't participate
in any discussions, you live in a paranoid, narcissistic, delusional,
fantasy world.

Great line. It's a brilliant production. I cheated and watched
the last part, and it's so well done compared to some other
versions I've seen. The credits say it was "Dramatised by
John Osborne." Not sure what that means--I guess that he wrote
the screenplay from the novel? Because the script is superb.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: An open Letter To Robin Vol. 1

[Ravi Chivukula]

And Xeno baby - I have never claimed humility, I'm no Dalai Lama who
masquerades as humble to beguile, bewitch the naive, gullible Westerners,
for their money, for their support.

However I have explained myself as thus - "my supreme arrogance yet genuine
humility" - in fact I feel my humility is merely a product of my arrogance.
You most likely don't have kids - but think like a parent. A parent is both
arrogant and genuinely humble towards his children, because the children
are but his/her creation, you can never, ever take away the sense of
ownership, the subjective sense of ownership, the parent feels towards his
kids. Once someone, in reference to my mystical exploits, asked how I feel
- I said - I feel like I own your ass.

I was born arrogant, my mother, my siblings, only served to reinforce this
arrogance, but the existence punished me, rightly so, and I was humiliated,
harassed, hounded to learn humility, to respect authority, to learn the
rules of the game, to work within them.

I'm forever mobile, free, soaring. I'm no slave to anyone, unlike your
darling Dolly Lama.

Love,
Ravi

Now, I like this Xeno !

Now you are finally starting to show some heart..keep at it !!!

Perhaps one day I will indulge in intellectual discussions with you, not

This is a nice, clear statement. What do you feel the points are upon which you 
disagree with Robin? And, if I muddy the waters here, as long as Rick and Alex 
let me be on this forum, I could muddy the waters as much as desired. But being 
cold and heartless, how much do you think I could really stir up?

As for the 'gem' above, that was written shortly before you were outed from 
here, and I did experience annoyance at your antics. The statement about free 
will was not entirely serious as I do not really believe in free will; I used 
the words because that is how I think most people experience choice, that is 
why the comment was in parentheses.

Stating that you do not live in your head and are minus mental constructs does 
not meant that is true, I firmly hold that it is not possible to express 
yourself in language without mental concepts. You used the concept 'I' several 
times. You listed many of your accomplishments in decimating others' arguments;

*I baited him.
*he fell hook, line, and sinker
*I decimated him

Simple verbal abuse is not independent of concepts, and it does not require 
much intelligence either, you are being lazy. Maybe your work requires a lot of 
mental energy, and when you come here, it is easier not to think but to 
mindlessly emote. Seven months in the offline FFL cooler has not reduced your 
temperature much. But as you come back, you must like it here. Welcome.

Mental constructs are a partial value of experience, they have a certain place. 
Experience has a more unbounded aspect, a more silent aspect. Even emotions are 
similar to mental constructs, they are more primitive and less focused than the 
intellect. They are also necessary for the experience of fulfillment; the 
intellect however well developed, cannot substitute for basic feeling.

Being a questionable remake AND PG-13 I stayed away from it even though 
it is playing at the top of the hill.  Might make a good rental.

Probably the most authentic adaptation of a "Philip K Dick" novel would 
be "A Scanner Darkly".  Dick's daughter Isa Dick-Hacket a

Doctor Dumbass,

Don't you let King Baby Barry steal my glory - I am the the youngest here - I 
could be wrong.

Anyway, King Baby is indeed in his 60's as Judy says, however his notoriety on 
this list is not because of his physical age but his emotional age, - there are 
lot of varying opinions, bitter battles, lot of mud slinging, slandering, all 
kinds of drama surrounding discussions on his emotional maturity, but even 
bitter opponents, experts on both sides of the aisle agree it's between 6 to 9.

Welcome to the list.

[Ravi Chivukula]

Oh my cold, heartless Xeno,

It's unfortunate that you can't see how utterly immobilized you are by your
mental constructs, by your beliefs - indeed this is why Robin cleans your
clock every single time, albeit in his  own way, gently, persistently
reminding of how far your mental constructs, beliefs keep you away from
reality, you are a sitting duck - I feel pity for you petty, vain minds
suffering from incorrigible, contagious form of IED (Intellectual
Enlightenment Disorder).

Look at this interaction I had with a one Dr. Conway on Ammachi free speech
list, as soon as I read him, I chuckled - I realized this was another case
of IED that's been a scourge of this nation - and that he should be a piece
of cake for me to handle, like Xeno

I baited him -
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ammachi_free_speech_zone/message/7341

He feel hook, line and sinker -
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ammachi_free_speech_zone/message/7342

I decimated him (last few paras) -
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ammachi_free_speech_zone/message/7368

Poor bastard - I haven't heard back from him - probably retreated to the
safety and solace of his neo-advaita brethren.

As it stands now Robin & I have disagreements on what Enlightenment is and
I will not allow sickly, delirious patients of IED such as yourself to
muddy the waters here.

I'll come hard at you Xeno - every single time, at my fancy, at my pleasure.

Because unlike your mental constructs such as this gem here - "I do find
Ravi particularly annoying, but I have the choice (in free-will terms) to
ignore him" ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/message/301358) -
I don't live in my head.

I love you baby.

Ravi.

2. if nine innings have passed, the game is over.

Right. You accused him of not making sense, of being deceptive,
and of using the concept of first-person ontology to "divide
and conquer." All without providing a single example.

One has an obligation, however, IMHO, to ensure that the
mental constructs one presents are created with integrity,
and that they are as clear, fair, and accurate as one can
possibly make them. That these constructs are not Absolute
Truth does not relieve one from the responsibility of 
maintaining intellectual honesty.

There was nothing to be dealt with in those posts other than
to point out that they were pastiches of remarks made by
other writers about other people in other circumstances, with
Robin's name repeatedly spliced in; and that the vast majority
of these remarks did not, in fact, apply to Robin.

They were at best a mildly amusing gag at Robin's expense,
hardly qualifying as "interesting assaults on Robin" in
any other sense.

Judy deals with what's in the trenches because far too often,
inaccurate, misleading, and/or dishonest reports from the
trenches result in a seriously distorted picture of the 
general sweep of the battle.

Yes, of course Doctor, he quality [always]remains with the object. The Original 
Batty Offender, however, perpetuates the "baseball game" as his only intent is 
to be hit with the balls, screaming: "Harder, Harder!".


The Treatment is beyond the reach of Science. Hopeless, terminal case.

Doc, although I addressed Barry directly, it was not in an
attempt to "fix" him, simply to correct his assertions for
the record.

And if you'll forgive me, while your observations are
interesting, it's generally not considered good form for a
newbie to a forum to instruct its members in how to conduct 
themselves. Stick around, participate in conversations, get
to know the other members, absorb some of the context of
the group and its dynamics. Then you'll be in a better
position to offer advice.

dear authfriend, it is far easier to build a nice new home, than to continually 
attempt to fix another's that is shoddy, and always in need of repair - kindly,

[FairfieldLife] Qualities of the object

[doctordumbass]

After my brief time here, The Good Doctor observes that the FFL dynamic 
revolves around the quality of objects. Example, one person says something 
offensive to another, or the group, perhaps writes a little essay on how most 
here are, well, unhinged, and/or stupid. 

The reaction of some is outrage, anger, and generally calling to an end of such 
behavior.

The originator then claims that the reactive members are now showing their 
true, and invariably negative, colors. 

EXCEPT, if the offender had not expressed the ugly opinion in the first place, 
the reactions would not have come. 

The quality of all that follows, begins with the originating object. To claim 
otherwise is to argue, for example, that the baseball has nothing to do with 
the game.

So, the offender by being offensive, creates a reality to the others that rests 
solely with him or her. There is no reason for a reaction of any kind, if no 
one is being socially or personally offensive. 

The quality remains with the object. 

[FairfieldLife] Re: Three FFL posters designated as Schedule I drugs

[danfriedman2002]

Judy,

When I wrote 'email' I refer to private communications. When I wrote 'Post" I 
specifically meant Post to FFL. I hope this clarification helps, as I have been 
very careful to choose the proper language throughout. No need to fuel the 
"DELIBERATE MISUNDERSTANDING" that some play around with. You, of course are 
quite literal, so you may not suspect that kind of behavior. Everything that I 
write is precise, whether thru email, or Post to FFL. Thank you for requesting 
this clarification, which can only highlight Batty's Duplicity.


For further clarification: As I recently POSTED to my new friend seventhray1, I 
sometime get a little less precise in my POSTS TO BATTY. I guess he just sets 
me off, sometimes.

Only by way of your posts pretending that it happens here.

You mean to say "people who *in my opinion* are fragile
and unbalanced personalities."

But that's a little problematic because you tend to
portray anyone who criticizes or disagrees with you as a
"fragile and unbalanced" personality.

And this is pure fantasy that even you are aware is not
true. That you keep pushing this absurd notion in an
attempt to get back at your critics leads some of us to
wonder whether the "fragile and unbalanced" personality
is you.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Three FFL posters designated as Schedule I drugs

[authfriend]

Dan, I've said this before, but I'll say it again for the
record: It's one thing to criticize Barry for his behavior
on FFL; it's quite another to make accusations about his
private life that you cannot publicly back up with evidence.
That's just unacceptable.

BTW, it can be important not to confuse the terms "post"
and "email." Anything sent to Fairfield Life is a "post,"
whether you read it on the Web site or receive it via
email. "Email" is what you send to an individual, privately.

We know that Barry did receive an email from you that went
out accidentally from your wife's email address (you had
intended it to be a post to FFL). We know this because Barry
posted to FFL about it. So when he says he never received an
email from you, that's obviously deliberately misleading.

Do you claim you've sent him other emails (i.e., private
communications)? Or when you say you've sent him emails,
do you mean FFL posts directed to him?

[FairfieldLife] Re: Three FFL posters designated as Schedule I drugs

[danfriedman2002]

Richard,

Remember Batty's threatening (hah!) warning: "...To do so is to legally put 
yourself at risk"!

Batty's waffling between Threat and Threatened is exactly what I advised him of 
earlier. That together with such anti-social behaviors as stimulating the 
humiliating response from others, decrying the lack of protection from the 
Moderator; which HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THE EARLIER ATTACKS THAT HE MADE, when I 
asked if the Moderator could get this guy balanced (hah, again) when he posted 
and emailed and otherwise attempted to get me to humiliate him early on. I of 
course found such degrading behaviors highly unusual, until I found out about 
what appears to be his lifestyle.

Doctor,

Please contact me if you need a consult. I'm happy to help. I do stand
confident in my early diagnosis, however the symptoms are more acute; ie
seeing threats from everyone, need to stimulate the humiliation
response, to report a few.

I also agree with your principles guiding your non-intervention. ref:
Research in today's NYT on 'How to Move a Mind'.

Always at your service, and on this (nut)Case to its(his) conclusion.

Actually, only one state (Virginia) permanently
disinfranchises those who have been convicted of a felony.
In most states, there is a process for felons to regain
voting rights after they have served their time (and in
two states, Vermont and Maine, felons can even vote from
prison). Twelve states make it very difficult but not
impossible for felons to regain the right to vote
eventually.

Actually 5.85 million Americans (2.5%) and 7.7% of
African-Americans are unable to vote because of a felony
conviction as of 2010, the most recent year for which
complete records are available.

Exactly. 

Believing that what you believe equals truth is
the disease of Narcissism, not the onset of

Worked on a farm, many years ago, where we picked and stewed the apples,
added cinnamon and WHAT A TREAT! It was such a good memory that I
subsequently named my cat Cinnamon. As an aside, did you know that it is
important to have an 's' sound in a cat's name, they will better
respond.
Dan, thanks for the tip.  Right now we have two cats, Buttons and
Miracle.  Buttons is quite friendly.  Not so with Miracle.  So, the "S"
thing might apply here.  Miracle got his name because we were housing a
family of strays in our garage.  The mother had taken them up into the
rafters.  Not all of them survived.  After a couple of weeks I went into
the garage to retrieve something, and there was a little orange ball of
fur in the corner making a tiny meow.  He's been ours ever since.  But
not particularly friendly.

Here's something else I read about cats.  It is said that black and
white cats tend to be more friendly.  That has definitely been our
experience.  Buttons is a black and white and was a stray for months,
but insisted on being adopted.  And guess what, right this instant he
came  up to me rubbing my leg.  I think he wants the butter treat I
somethimes  give him.  I take a pinch of butter and mush onto the
kitchen floor.  He love to take that raspy tongue and lick it up.

So, now it's all about 'Bhairitu'. LoL!

, as well as earning acting roles in film. His made his debut on the silver 
screen in Abel Ferrara's China Girl, for which he also wrote the end-credit 
song "Midnight." Bhairitu went on to collaborate with Ferrara on several film 
and music projects, including: Bad Lieutenant, in which Bhairitu played Jesus 
Christ and co-wrote the end-credits song; Body Snatchers, which featured the 
song "I Want You Back"; and The Funeral, which saw Bhairitu co-starring with 
Christopher Walken, Isabella Rosselini, Benicio del Toro and Vincent Gallo.

DAN!  No, it is an apology!  According the the International Scale of
Apologies (or ISA), it is a 3.9 out of a 5.  Anything above 3.5
qualifies as an apology.  So, although not particularly strong one, it
definitely qualifies, and therfore you can now move past the entire
issue.

This is good news for all.  BTW, the ISA is an open ended scale and so a
4.0 apology would actually be a pretty strong apology.
