Ham

That's where the offshoots, if not der vey itself, however in a much more limited manner today, fill a much "needed" gap. They don't offer the license, at least upon demand. But if one perseveres, it is attainable, with something to the odds of winning the lottery. There's YEARS of "training".. classes, fellowships, various advances.. where one is issued a prophetic, not lcense, but "learners permit". A person pays for the "priviledge" to learn how to prophecy on demand, in a carefully crafted , supervised "environment". By the time you get "there" though.. there are no guarantees.. they did take the ministries off of the Corps seal didn't they? "naw, all this is so you can run a twig.."

I like your polls Roy.. :) But.. for number one.. how about an "another' option. I kinda think seed was "planted" when we were born.. or maybe even before.. I'm not so sure that we aren't exactly what we agreed to be to begin with.. maybe the whole dream here is to be more than what we really are..

Yep.. "prophecy" and mometus got married in CES a couple of times. I don't think they are exactly monogomous or anything though.. same gods of old.. I hear they had "a good time" in quite a few venues..

apparently not strong enough Dooj.. about 900 or so more micrograms may have done the trick.. sounds like another group that's getting some attention here.. I wonder if rood is a momentus "grad"..

Well, gotta admit, I have a good imagination.. but ya know.. if he has people working around him like he's the queen bee or something.. he's been successful convincing SOMEBODY he's something like "Elvis". madman or not.

Yeah.. makes me wonder. But there's something good to be said about anybody.. anything's possible.. Rood could be like Elvis with the Memphis mafia surrounding him.. trying to milk him for all he's worth.. Now me, I've ruined the "game". I've proved myself so "nutso" in some categories, they'll never even think of putting me on a stage..

I haven't had anything quite as dramatic happen since.. :) what's funny about it.. if it happens to "you".. it's almost like you don't have any shame.. you'll talk to anybody who you might think may have a clue to help you along the way.. even if there's a more than distinct possibility that they'll think you're nuts.. I asked "fundamentalist" ex-way christians about it.. friends I've know for a while.. a really nice lady who was at least one time into Jewish mysticism.. another really nice ex-way lady who was more help than she could possibly imagine.. another really nice never in the waylady who was into some real off the mainstream ideas.. and her suggestions were perhaps the best I found.. and.. a therapist. I really did lay all the cards on the table. Not the first visit.. I gave the therapist a couple of sessions before I laid the big question on them.. "am I nuts, doc?" Well, "they" still let me roam free in society.. I think for me at least I got the answer to what it was I saw.. I asked the dumb question, I got the answer.. "what's really in us.." I think I saw the core self of another human being.. only thing I can say.. I can at least partly see why God Almighty loves us so much..

I was expecting a "free cat" pitch here. That's how I got a couple of them here.. my mind was racing, thinking.. "what's he gonna do, send them in the mail?"

Groucho, he probably vacuumed up the said crumbs in the forest as he went, so they wouldn't be a "distraction" to the forest creatures as he taught them "der verd". You know.. hoisted on his own anal retentiveness..

Interesting.. I wonder why he came to Michigan.. can't be because of the economy.. plus we already have all the little tin foil hats we need, enough for a lifetime.. I think maybe the day of these organizations is long past.. they seem to be dying, like the fig tree.. from the inside out. No real fruit..

I think we are deeply spiritual beings Roy. I saw something once that sent me on a quest for over a year to try to figure out what it really was.. I saw something like that.. and I didn't cover my eyes.. I looked right into it.. and I felt like my skin was almost burned all the way off..

Oh yeah.. just what we need, another Semon Dye hitting the roads in an old jalope.. ya know.. if the economy keeps going the way it is.. we'll have these numbnuts coming out of their holes and working the countryside.. God have mercy on us..

Happy Birthday! Hope you enjoyed your day.

I dunno.. it's just a thought. Nothing else seems to get their REAL attention.. all they seem to be willing to offer are little one on one damage control sessions. I've seen loving exhortation, pleading, begging, brow-beating.. and.. nada. The national ham organization may have it's internal little squabbles at times.. but if they did half of this kinda nonsense, my local club would probably cancel affiliation..

I dunno.. there are quite a few "fellowships" that claim affiliation with the group. If I ran one, I'd send a letter, not email, through the U.S. postal service, requesting that my name be removed from the list.. The sad thing I think, is that a lot of them probably don't have a clue of what's going on.. it's like, der vey ministry, all over again..

Any other thoughts or comments about the ebook yet? they have a half a dozen or more books online.. I thought this one was about the best.

soo.. does anybody know? What is der gearo "fellowship" like? Are the "leadership" meetings like a scene out of an "old codgers's" home, or "grumpy old men", where the residents take to beating each other with canes, and for the life of them, they can't remember who started the argument? "eeeeeehhh, you traitorous, treacherous, possessed.. um. Ummmm... uhh.. " "aww, forget it.."

Well.. for a bag of pecans, it's a deal..

hmm. That's a thought. For a limited time, and the right kind of schmmozing not to mention "contributions".. I think we can get the Great Squirrel to interrupt his rather "hectic" fall schedule..

Need you ask? It's a "suggestion".. but we all know a suggestion is tantamount to a command. Those aren't rubber bands. They are The Prevailing Verd and Ice over Der Vorld bands. Embossed on each, "The Word of Squirrel is the Will of Squirrel".

OK "brotha".. I'm from WV.. I warned my daughters.. watch out for the guy that's giving away furs. Ya know.. "darlin.. if you marry up with me, I'll give you all the furs you'da ever want. You can have a coal fur, a wood fur.."

Hey.. no problemo! The Squirrel feels most perfectly safe here. Most of his crew probably can't remember where they left their dentures anyway..

Our core is light. If anything.. we all own each other.. maybe not in a practical sense, in this life. The Beatles sung about something like that.. I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together. and then the sun comes up, and the day job has it's demands..

Happy Thanksgiving to you too, Paw, and to all those of the cafe.

"There were Giants in those days.."
