Re: [FairfieldLife] RE: Yaqui Vastu

Richard, I love that Yaqui Vastu principle of building with non stressed materials. But I have to wonder how sustainable that is. I mean, are there enough stones lying around? I wonder if straw bales would be acceptable. And before, you had mentioned cedar. But wouldn't cedar have to be transpor

Re: Re: [FairfieldLife] The Minion Koan

Judy, a way more interesting question imho is why do you even care what I think turq thinks. Should I even feed your strange interest by answering you? What the heck: I doubt turq thinks about me much. Probably he hasn't changed his mind. But so what? See, I think in your mind that means I shoul

What an utterly appalling photograph. There really has been a change of sensibilities, and not just because so many wild species are going extinct or are endangered, although that certainly helps. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote: It's amazing how quickly societal attitudes c

[FairfieldLife] Lion hunting - not just for the macho types

It's amazing how quickly societal attitudes change. It's not that long ago that Ernest Hemingway liked having his photo taken posing proudly next to lions he'd hunted and killed. Today the same sport(?) elicits howls of outrage. (By the way: myself, I wouldn't find any pleasure at all in killing

[FairfieldLife] RE: All Bullies Are Narcissists

What's "fascinating" is the EXTRAORDINARY hypocrisy of Barry accusing anybody else of bullying. Once you've viciously attacked someone in a post headed "SHUT THE FUCK UP," you've pretty much announced that you've permanently given up your last shred of credibility as a critic of bullies.

7 posts this morning! This is one of the qualities I like about turq, his generosity, and that his posts are often about fascinating stuff. That's all I got for now (-: On Saturday, November 16, 2013 5:42 AM, TurquoiseB wrote:   How many minions does it take to change a light bulb? Or in

dear not really indifferent, much of my thinking about this topic is based on knowing Rick in person. I think he's quite intelligent and impervious to self delusion so I choose to trust his input. About Amma and Gail I will never know the *facts* via my own direct observations so I rely on the o

This is another rap that I started in a cafe in Uzes back in August and then never got back to.

You may have a different opinion, and that's just fi

A rap I rediscovered lurking on my hard disk this morning, shortly after reading the article I posted earlier from The Atlantic. I started it in a cafe near the one in which I'm sitting now over two weeks ago. I never posted it here or did anything with it because it was only an in-the-moment rap,
