Remember?
Take a stroll with
me ...
close your eyes ...
and go back ...
before the Internet
...
before
semi-automatics and crack ...
before SEGA or
Super Nintendo ...
way back ...
I'm talking about sitting on the curb, sitting on the stoop,
about hide and go seek, Simon Says, Red light -- Green light.
Lunch boxes with a thermos, chocolate milk, going home for lunch,
penny candy from the store, hopscotch, butterscotch, skates with
keys, Jacks, Hula Hoops and sunflower seeds, wax lips and
mustaches, Mary Janes, saddle shoes and Coke bottles with the
names of cities on the bottom. Running through the sprinkler,
circle pins, bobby pins, Mickey Mouse Club, Rocky & Bullwinkle,
Kookla, Fran & Ollie, Spin & Marty ... all in black & white.
When around the corner seemed far away, and going downtown seemed
like going somewhere. Climbing trees, making forts, backyard
shows, lemonade stands, Cops and Robbers, Cowboys and Indians,
staring at clouds, jumping on the bed, pillow fights, ribbon
candy, angel hair on the Christmas tree, Jackie Gleason, white
gloves, walking to the movie theater, running till you were out
of breath, laughing so hard that your stomach hurt. Remember
that?
Not stepping on a crack or you'll break your mother's back ...
paper chains at Christmas, silhouettes of Lincoln and Washington,
the smell of paste in school and Evening in Paris. What about the
girl who dotted her "i's" with hearts? The Stroll, popcorn balls,
& sock hops.
Remember when ... there were two types of sneakers for girls and
boys (Keds & PF Flyer) and the only time you wore them at school
was for "gym." And the girls had those ugly gym uniforms. When it
took five minutes for the TV to warm up. When nearly everyone's
Mom was at home when the kids got home from school. When nobody
owned a purebred dog. When a quarter was a decent allowance, When
you'd reach into a muddy gutter for a penny. When your Mom wore
nylons that came in two pieces. When all of your male teachers
wore neckties and female teachers had their hair done, everyday
and wore high heels. When you got your windshield cleaned, oil
checked, and gas pumped, without asking, all for free, every
time. And, you didn't pay for air.
And, you got trading stamps to boot! When laundry detergent had
free glasses, dishes or towels hidden inside the box. When it was
considered a great privilege to be taken out to dinner at a real
restaurant with your parents. When they threatened to keep kids
back a grade if they failed ... and did!
When the worst thing you could do at school was smoke in the
bathrooms, flunk a test or chew gum. And the prom was in the
auditorium and you danced to an orchestra. When a '57 Chevy was
everyone's dream car ... to cruise, peel out, lay rubber or watch
submarine races, and people went steady and girls wore a class
ring with an inch of wrapped bandaids, dental floss or yarn
coated with pastel frost nail polish so it would fit her finger.
And no one ever asked where the car keys were because they were
always in the car, in the ignition, and the doors were never
locked.
Remember lying on your back on the grass with your friends and
saying things like "That cloud looks like a .... " And playing
baseball with no adults to help kids with the rules of the game.
Remember when stuff from the store came without safety caps and
hermetic seals because no one had yet tried to poison a perfect
stranger. And ... with all our progress ... don't you just wish,
just once, you could slip back in time and savor the slower
pace ... and share it with the children of today... When being
sent to the principal's office was nothing compared to the fate
that awaited the student at home.
Basically, we were in fear for our lives, but it wasn't because
of drive by shootings, drugs, gangs, etc. Our parents and
grandparents were a much bigger threat! But we survived because
their love was greater than the threat.
So send this on to someone who can still remember Nancy Drew, The
Hardy Boys, Laurel & Hardy, Howdy Doody and The Peanut Gallery,
The Lone Ranger, The Shadow Knows, Nellie Belle, Roy and Dale,
Trigger and Buttermilk ... as well as the sound of a reel mower
on Saturday morning, and summers filled with bike rides, baseball
games, bowling and visits to the pool ... and eating Kool-Aid
powder with sugar.
Didn't that feel good, just to go back and say,
"Yeah, I remember that..."

Monster Cards of the 1950's and 1960's
What do Dracula, Frankenstein, the Wolfman, and the Creature
from the Black Lagoon all have in common, other than their
malevolent nature? They all have their own trading cards. What
do you think a '63 Wolf Man goes for these days?
Monster Cards of the 1950's and 1960's is a fun site devoted to
these unique trading cards that were sold much like their
baseball card counterparts, in paper wrappers complete with stale
bubble gum. If you're tired of discussing the net worth of
today's baseball players maybe you'll find some new heroes, or
in this case, villains here. Check out the Mars Attacks! series,
which was the inspiration for the Tim Burton film.

Abundance is a direct reflection of the Law
of Abundance that pervades the Universe.
Life is infinite, so is Abundance.
When Abundance is fully experienced--and
shared--with Wisdom and Love, there is Peace.
Before there is Peace, Heart-felt Prayer for
it must be deeply felt, then expressed.
With Prayer truly felt and expressed, deep from your
Heart, results can happen beyond your wildest imagination.
Imagine Peace.

vegetarians are cruel to plants.
How would you like it if someone tore your testicles off and
started eating them. Haven't recent studies indicated that
plants radiate, you know, a sort of aura that can be detected
on certain types of EEG machines (like bio-feedback machines)?
Doesn't talking to plants make them thrive better. Who shows
kindness to our little green veggie friends? Have any of you
ever known what it is like to talk to a kumquat, an eggplant
or a pistachio? No! And why? Because plants have no mewing,
bahhiing, mooing voice.
Stop the vegetarian slaughter.
Eat eggs.

Subject: Orbital Calendar
Time Space POSTER
Organization: Celestial Dynamics
Dear Poster Lovers -
Is is art or science? It's both!
Hi, I'm Nancy Baumgarten, MLA ASLA a landscape architect turned
calendar-maker driven by Spirit to create the
ASTRONOMICALLY-correct Orbital Calendar: GaiaLuna Time-Space Map
to really show the interconnections of Sun, Earth, Moon and
planets to our yearly cycles.
11 years research and design, ORBITAL CALENDAR, 26"X38" POSTER
w/32-page guidebook now includes Mayan/Gregorian Concordance (GMT
correlation) with glyphs.
Here is The Calendar as it really is! a beautiful highly unique,
astronomically-correct astronaut's view of the Earth/Moon's
yearly orbit through time-space with spectacular NASA image of
our Milky Way Galaxy.
Each day's location and the exact time of the quarter phases of
the moon is shown relative to the 13 ecliptic constellations; the
heliocentric location of each of the solar system's other planets
are also shown, including Chiron and Ceres. Please take a look
at: http://www.celestial-dynamics.com
All astronomic data has been reviewed by Guy Ottewell, Astronomer
at Furman University; and the newly added Mayan glyphs and
calendrics (GMT correlation)have been taken from and approved
by John Major Jenkins, an independent archeologist and highly
original decoder of the remarkable work of the Mayans in the
Nature of TIME. Also tested by Richard Crutchfield, PhD,
geomancer-dowser for sacred accuracy - it dowses out 5 miles!
Here are some comments from others:
"I consider this map as important to understanding the
reality of Time as Buckminster Fuller's 'Dymaxion Map'
and Tom Van Zant's 'Geosphere' are to viewing the real
world without distortion."
Mark Sutton CEO, Aperion, Inc. Dallas,
Texas Computer visualization of scientific
data; Consultant to federal agencies on
global curriculum development.
Tom Hawking of Morehead Planetarium, University of North
Carolina, Chapel Hill says of the calendar poster,
"This space poster is simply the best
most-easily
understood explanation that I have ever
seen for
teaching some rather difficult concepts to
grasp."
Geomancer-Dowser Richard Crutchfield, PhD., researcher of the
geomantic nature of sacred sites says of the poster,
"The Orbital Calendar Time-Space Poster is
associated
with a kind of subtle but powerful energy field
that...displays a certain energy configuration
that appears to be characteristic of places,
objects and activities long considered to be sacred
and powerful. The origin of this sacred energy
seems to be beyond our galaxy (Hunab Ku) and the
Orbital Calendar serves as a channel for this
energy....it dowses out 5 miles radius."

sample column:
PHILADELPHIA: FIRST AMENDMENT FREE ZONE!
By Mumia Abu-Jamal, M.A.
#486 Column Written 12/21/2000
A mere mention of the place-name "Philadelphia" is sufficient to
evoke a host of images upon the mind, a mix of myth and mayhem;
the differences between what one is taught, and what one has
learned from the lessons of life.
To many, Philadelphia means the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall,
and the staging ground for what came to be called the American
Revolution. To others, Philadelphia means the MOVE bombing,
unbridled police repression, the flames of Osage Avenue, marking
signs of a Revolution to come.
Philadelphia, in fact, was the first capital of the fledgling
United States. It was also, in the eyes of those most deprived
of freedom, ex-slaves like Frederick Douglass, a city remarkable
for its racism, and a dangerous city, that spawned mobs who
burned buildings which were centers of abolitionism.
More recently, in 1999 and the year 2000, it has been the place
where the New Abolitionists-opponents of the death penalty-have
found the hard face of police and judicial oppression turned
against them. Demonstrators who have dared to exercise their
alleged first amendment rights at the Liberty Bell have learned
that such an exercise is a crime, punished by judicially-imposed
silence, and banishment from the environs where the so-called
"constitutional guarantee" was written! Those bold youth who
dared to practice those alleged "constitutional guarantees" at
the recent Republican National Convention in Philadelphia found
Philadelphia's real face: the dungeons of Holmesburg Prison, the
vomit-strewn holding tanks of the Roundhouse, and the malevolent
repression of the DA's Office, which sought, and obtained,
million dollar ransoms, for those who got the legal equivalent of
traffic tickets. Welcome to Philadelphia, y'all.
Revolutionary journalist C. Clark Kissinger has been but the
latest to taste the tender mercies of the local judiciary. Banned
from the city for daring to act as if the Liberty Bell
represented liberty, Clark was recently hauled before a
magistrate for - get this - speaking in Philadelphia during the
Convention. For speaking, without first getting judicial
permission (that is, for practicing free speech!) Clark was
sentenced to 90 days in federal prison.
What was Clark's "crime?" The government claimed it was simply a
violation of probation. Sure. But does anyone think he would be
in stir, if he quietly came to Philly, because he wanted to see
the Rocky statue, or The Thinker by Rodin, at the Art Museum?
What if he suddenly got religion, and wanted to pray at Bishop
John Neumann's Shrine? The prosecutor leaves little doubt about
why Clark was there. His words: "George W. Bush is a smirking
frat rat, son of a former head of the CIA, who went on to become
a speculator oil man, and went on from there to be a
blood-stained executioner, and now wants to be the Ruler of the
world!"
This was the State's Exhibit #1, and this was the magistrate's
incredible justification for this violation hearing. In
Rappoport's words, "Past behavior shows that his speech ends in
civil disobedience." This is the same guy who claims that Clark's
case has absolutely "nothing" to do with the First Amendment! Is
that not incredible?
As Clark aptly put it when first faced with jail: If I were an
executive of Firestone who killed people with defective tires, I
wouldn't have to fear a single day in jail. If I were one of the
cops who fired 41 bullets at Amadou Diallo, I wouldn't have to
worry about going to jail. If I were an army officer instructing
death squad leaders at the School of the Americas at Fort
Benning, Georgia, I certainly wouldn't be threatened with any
jail time.
Welcome to Philadelphia, y'all. Where the First Amendment
doesn't matter. Where both the media and the government conspire
to punish you for protest. Where you can be beaten, jailed,
threatened, and insulted by a judge, and jailed again!
Philly-First Amendment Free Zone! (c)MAJ 2001

QUOTES
Quotes on Miscellaneous Thoughts
*-*-*-*
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It
is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this
emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and
stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.
~ Albert Einstein
*-*-*-*
A day spent without the sight or sound of beauty, the
contemplation of mystery, or the search for truth or perfection,
is a poverty stricken day; and a succession of such days is fatal
to human life
~ Lewis Mumford, 1895-1990
*-*-*-*
Every man is a divinity in disguise, a god playing the fool.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)
*-*-*-*
Wit is the lightning of the mind, reason the sunshine, and
reflection the moonlight.
~ Countess of Blessington (1839)
*-*-*-*
Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.
~ Mae West
*-*-*-*
I met a seer.
He held in his hands
The book of wisdom.
"Sir," I addressed him,
"Let me read."
"Child-" he began.
"Sir," I said,
"Think not that I am a child,
For already I know much
Of that which you hold.
Aye, much."
He smiled.
Then he opened the book
And held it before me.
Strange that I should have grown so suddenly blind.
~ Stephen Crane, in The Black Riders and Other Lines; poem XXXVI

The Movement and the Sixties
by Terry H. Anderson
Paperback - 500 pages (June 1996)
Oxford Univ Pr (Trade)
ISBN: 0195104579
Synopsis
Why did millions of Americans become activists in the 1960s; why
did they take to the streets? These are questions Terry Anderson
explores in this searching history of the social activism that
defined a generation of young Americans and that called into

impossible, giving us historical and intellectual synthesis."

Two discs of music don't exactly provide for a thorough overview
of four decades of recording, particularly if the subject of the
retrospective is one of the most important and prolific
performers of his time. So The Essential Bob Dylan definitely
