  1. What made YOU laugh today/tonight ?

    My neighbor had a visiting rabbit that did that - it came from the camp ground across the road where some woman was living in a teepee with three kids, and for some reason , 5 rabbits . He didnt get far , the rooster came flying out and beat up the rabbit ; " Not on my turf you dont ! "

  3. a country boy can't survive, unless...

    At first I was afraid, I was petrified Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side Then I spent so many nights Just thinking how you did me wrong And I grew strong And I learned how to get along And so you're back from outer space I just walked in to find you here, with that sad look upon your face I should have changed that stupid lock I should have made you leave your key If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me Go on now go, walk out the door Just turn around now 'Coz you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes? you think I'd crumble? you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no not I, I will survive For as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give I'll survive I will survive Hey hey (I, I will survive) Hey hey (I, I will survive) Every day (I, I will survive) Oh yeah It took all the strength I had not to fall apart Just trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high And you see me, somebody new I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free But now I'm savin' all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me Go on now, go walk out the door Just turn around now You're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes? you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no not I, I will survive Oh as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give I'll survive I will survive Hey hey Go now, go walk out the door Just turn around now 'Coz you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye? Did you think I'd crumble? Did you think I'd lay down and die? Oh no not I, I will survive Oh as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give I'll survive I will survive I will survive
  4. Our group had fun wearing 'elaborate costumes ' ! We worked on many levels , some private some 'communal' , that is rites and celebrations that are put on for the 'general populace ' . One, for example, was a great maypole we did one year . Everyoone enjoyed making and wearing their elaborate costumes . And the art , installations and sculpture we did . We had vine wreathed lithe dancers , a crazy stained green man , a harp player , stayrs nymphs and made a great multi colored woven maypole . For other rites - astrological / mythical , similar (but more a closed group .) A group of 'thesbians' we where .... and it was fun . Also learnt a LOT too . - but, you might have noticed (if you look into such things ) many .... many many , initiation rites , the 'serious' or real ones , cross culturally , start of .... ' Get yer gear off ' . - you 'start off' how you came into the world . So , flamboyant dresser-uppers going to be disappointed .

  8. a country boy can't survive, unless...

    This 'country boy' is currently flooded in . Fortunately ( for me ) most of it went around our area .... hit some cities south .... now they got some 'country' (no power, no lighting , sewer out etc . ) Sydney's main water supply dam is topping over , if more rain, that could get very ' interesting ' !

    A sexual what ? A sexual Buddhist ? - actually, I might join up , I like the sound of that ; " What religion are you ? " " I am a sexual Buddhist . "
  13. Alchemical Herbs

    So the Chinese consider them 'herbalists' or is that just the tag English translators use ? Meaning : In English , a carpenter works with wood , but also metal brackets and screws , etc . we dont call screws wood as well because they are metal . Is doing the opposite of this (calling screws wood, or animal parts herbs ) what the Chinese do , is it a 'nuance ' of their language , or is it a Chinese term that does describe all this accurately but the English just slapped the term 'herbalist' on them as it seemed the best fit ?
  14. Alchemical Herbs

    I know they are sometimes ingredients for 'medicine' . Animal parts in Chinese are herbs ???? ( Its not that goat / sheep 'thing' again is it ? )
  15. Alchemical Herbs

    Animal parts are 'herbs' ?
  16. Broccoli now ...... as i just said above . Hey Broccoli ! You know what you remind me off ? A naughty kid that got locked in his room for being rude when visitors came .... so he jumped out the window, has run around to the front of the house and is outside the sitting room windows , poking his tongue out and making silly faces at the people inside . Then he stamps up and down the sidewalk pointing at the house to any passer-by and ranting about how his superiority is not acknowledged .
  17. Alchemical Herbs

    There are many herbs that are attributed to longevity , that's the easy part . The difficult part is getting the 'spirit' ( and 'non -material' ) part out of them and into a substance one can take ( and one , like this transference substance, must be able to absorb it , not just into their body but into their spirit ) .
  18. Edit ; I was responded to someone who just became a PB . - That was quick ! ' Like Hermes with winged heel he doth fly in and perceive, strike and depart before his arrival is even seen .' ....................................... .......... ... . . .. . . .
  19. Hello from the US

    Hi . What martial arts did you practice ?
  20. I was winking not randomly , I was winking to try to indicate to you that 'what the hell I am trying to say' , is ... what you yourself said about interpretations of Taoism . Anyone with a reasonable IQ should have remembered what they themselves have claimed . Hmmmmm ......
  21. I suppose then I was in optimal state of spiritual achievement all through my teens until 20 ( when I met Julie Johnson ) .... then I ..... 'de-achieved ' .
  22. Good Friday

    As usual, on Good Friday, we had a dark sky and some ominous 'swirly' clouds overhead , late afternoon . I been watching that for years ; 7 out of 10 it seems , often a bad storm . Sometimes when the rest of the day is good weather . meh ..... probably a coincidence ....
