Here and Now...What's Happening?

[Ernie Nemeth]

Calz, there is no other like you around here, my friend. And your work on the ranch thread, heck, I don't go there often but even I appreciate the work you do there. Hang in there, bro. Maybe what happened, of which I am not really aware, was just a pecadillo?

Our little cat, Max, has a very sore paw. I don't know how he managed to injure himself like that, or how he managed to hide it from us for what seems like weeks. Open, festering sore. Caught him licking at it in secret this morning. Gotta find a vet...

The last two bad kitty wounds I have had at my house were treated quite successfully with cold pressed castor oil, applying to the wounds directly.

Could it be that Max had a fight with another cat and a bit of claw got lodged in there and infected it?

Hi, we're back from the vets, $300 poorer.

Wish I had seen your response earlier, Reilly. I could probably have managed to clean and dress it myself but he has a fever and it is badly infected. Vet, made him all better. It's bandaged and his cone is on. Plus we got antibiotics to administer. Ten days and he should be better.

As to what happened - I'm not sure. I hate to think it could have been one of my projects all scattered about in my office, here. But I clean up every day and sweep and vacuum. He does like to hide in the closet where my projects are in big plastic bins. Maybe he caught his paw on a sharp piece of steel or something. I hate to think it was my carelessness that might have caused him his injury. From now on my closet door gets closed...

P.S. Our cat is an indoor cat, so its not from an encounter with another feline.

cat claws rarely infect, compared to their bite....

That quote you posted sounds kind of like St. Augustine: "Da mihi castitatem et continentiam sed noli modo/Give me chastity and continence, but not yet."

That quote so annoys me. There he is, being a complete pig and hasn't a frigging clue. I hope for every woman he used, he gets an incarnation of chastity. And he *thinks* his focus is on G*d, no, it is on women. And not in a good way either.

Ulli, you have a new career, waking up psycho therapists (wicked grin).

Love, Sierra

About "saint" Augustine ....his peccadillos were real pecados, and the karma he carried is that of 1800 years worth of abused choir boys...
For having instituted celibacy as a projection discipline for his own shortcomings.

Man, I haven't read so much on this forum in the past year as I have in the past week. My head is swimming with ETs, haha. There sure are a lot of people who have had first hand encounters with other beings they call aliens. I wonder...what these Angels would consider themselves...I doubt they would consider themselves aliens. I've decided I really don't like that word, I guess. I know what people mean when they use it, they mean from other planets or other dimensions or some such. And I can't find any kind of Truth inside me that would suggest all humans can be lumped into any particular category. I would guess it is possible that there are new souls here, I don't know that's not possible. All I can honestly come up with is that no matter the different reasons for being here, and the different stop-off points before we got here, and different soul experiences to this point, we simply are here at the same time. (Time being what it is, and isn't.) I can't find any Truth inside myself that tells me we are all here for the same reason either. My conclusion can only be that this planet has a diverse population...and that we probably represent other groups. I would guess, just my own version of common sense (or lack thereof) judging by the duality of human beings, that there would be (possibly) a duality within who we represent. Maybe not within the groups but between the groups?

No wonder this is a tough gig. No wonder the only way to get to any Truth is to look within. Although, at this point, I cannot say that has gotten me very far. Yet.

Eek. I'll stop while I'm behind.

Much Love,

[Calz]

Holy Crap, Cal. Man, I found it. Took me long enough...



Okay, you get a group hug. You could have had a hug, haha, but I can't find that emoticon.

Much Love, though...

In other news today...... former Knicks player Baron Davis describes being abducted by aliens.

Calz--Hoping tomorrow starts the week as an improvement to the last one. The state of limbo, whether it's physical or mental is just damned uncomfortable--been there too often myself.

Ernie--Happy to hear your kitty is on the mend. Reading your kitty accounts really makes miss me having one of those purring moody furballs myself-- someday I'll have another one, until then I pacify myself with the stories of feline-antics told by my fellow villagers.

Well my interview went really well-- I'll know on Monday if I move on to the 2nd interview. I think I may have a good chance-- but my biggest disadvantage is the commute, which may deter them from hiring me over other candidates.

Time to keep reading through some of the thicker threads here in PA-- I'm still quite behind...

I have that picture in my stash, Calz, but always felt too shy to post it here,
even when it would have been suitable.
You are so naughty!

Anyway, whatever it is that is troubling you should have been released with that joke.
I got the image of dozens of guests here cracking up laughing...

[donk]

Truth inside me that would suggest all humans can be lumped into any particular category.

Sure we can...to anyone not from earth--we are aliens...or whatever the equivalent is in their language. As limiting as labels can be...emotional attachment to them is what gives them power. They are useful in discussions, when the idea behind them are shared. If the essence of the word/label is not shared with those conversing, qualifications are needed.

It could be really simple, if not for the whole emotional attachment thing

[1inMany]

I don't know donk. I have a hunch that many of the beings referred to as aliens would refer to many of us family, haha. Not saying all of them, or all of "us"...

:D

There are simply so many possibilities...

the point is WE are the gods .. we made all the rules ... and we made all the universes too ... then we were stupid enough to build a system that can trap us in our own creation bound by all the games and rules we created to have this incredible game we made that is soooooooooo complicated ... it is taking reruns after reruns of past lifetimes to untangle everyone and get us all back to some kind of an agreement to let go of this universe we created and make a new one

I just want to double check my understanding of that post, jiminii. So, you are saying that as gods, we are all powerful and created this universe...but stupid to fall into traps...but that we shall be gods when we walk away from the mess when we were stupid, and as gods we will create more universes? Is that right?

Much love,

[jiminii]

yes i think you got it

basically when we came out of the static we are infinitely powerful children ,,.. there is NOTHING ... NO EMOTION ... like happy sad fear anger ... none of that is created yet ...
we first had to create space .. and then how to make it so things would not disappear .. so we needed a space time continuum that ran in automatic ... everyone in this universe is creating all of it ... whether they are aware of it or not ...
everything else had to be created ... even love hate .. all the emotions ... every consideration is JUST a consideration until SOMEONE else can realize it and agree to it ... that is .. to say .. if we create blue ... we have to get others to be able to see this blue .. and then we can give it a name ...

so now the game is between those that had powers against those who want all the property that was created by those that had the powers to create it ... they want to get rid of those that have power so they can control everyone with the ownership of the property ... you see if those that have power can create one planet after another .. then those that don't have power can not make the property scarce so they can raise the price on it and suppress everyone by owning it and making it expensive for others to have ...

so they would rather kill those that have power so they can not make any more real estate so those with no power can control everyone by owning the real estate ...

so they get those that have power to fight others with power ... and get them to create weapons against the big beings ... (created by the big beings because only they would know how to pull down another big being) ... so the big beings create weapons to take down another big being .. never thinking he could be taken down too .... until more and more are trapped on these prison planets ... you see they can't kill a spirit .. they can only trap him and make him lose his memory by scrambling it with false memories ..

so yes I would say we were stupid enough to create the weapons needed to take down others like us ... and NEVER ..FIND A TECHNOLOGY TO UNTRAP A BIG BEING ... not very intelligent ...

but now that we are all trapped ... when we are free again ... we will not be so stupid to have only a technology that traps ... and not create a technology that untraps ...
all that technology is in the future being sent back to this time ... to help us get our abilities and memories back
