BBC World News, yesterday morning: Did I really hear this? --In countries such as Sweden and Britain, where cars on the highway drive on the left-hand side of the road, oddly enough, the steering wheels are also on the left.-- I'm thinking, Now does that statement make any sense at all? Darn it, I must have heard it wrong. ..... Many hours later (Yes, this is my actual thought process)...Oh, I get it! It was a joke. (Smile) Never mind......Emily Latella in person

Only just now, glancing back, I can see nothing funny, easy to understand, or any kind of joke in plain English at all, even understood by Emily Latella. By the way, guess who died at 43 of uterine cancer - our pal Gilda - guess who else died from the face of the earth by 42 or 43 - 3 existentialist visionaries, Nietzche, Kafka, Dostoevsky - Emily Dickinson sometime in her 50's - my maternal grandmother had a stroke by age 56 after producing 10 children - there went Papa Charles slightly off his pedestal, well it does happen to the best of us....
Look who committed suicide in our own babyboomer generation of the glorious 60's - at 27 yet - to have completed enough of their dream to just go ahead and quit - 3 - magically - Jimi Hendrix - Janis Joplin - Jim Morrison - JM is stuck in a grave in Paris, France, close to the final resting place of Isadora Duncan -
As for me I shall be more than content when I reach the appointed time, to be determined already by Dear Old Dad, it must be no less than 120 yrs. if I can do it - at which time I only seek the ultimate plan of being cremated into tiny sparks, to be cast over the pond where the ducks and geese and swans still play, at Prospect Park ever yet today.
d or crawled over the face of the earth. Just look back at history illustrated only by ancient kinds of textbooks, where pictures were lazily scribbled out long before the advent of the camera. There were dodo birds and unicorns, all looking kind of soft and dumpy and without too much overall form. The largest swarms of creatures all over the place are the most insidious kinds of insects, which are insidiously growing faster and faster at mutating into new viruses and diseases that we have never seen before, they are the ones to be sprayed with any kinds of pesticides available, not, not, not, the...now I am stumped because it looks like all of the foregoing is actually too short.............................................................................
blessed bumblebees, the greatest mystery of God's overall creation that continues to keep the tide of evolution flowing like none other designed creature before, much too fat to be explainable by science that it could possibly fly at all. Another is the tiny hummingbird, which blinks over so many wing spaces per minute you could not even count the teeny tiny ways by which it manages to stay alive.
While we are all examining the value of True Science have we stopped back to look at the glorious curiosity of just one mighty sparrow? That is what we are designed to do here, admire the beauty of the sparrows. And the pigeons gobble up the dirt on the ground, dutifully they used to pick up all the mess in Central Park, til it was outlawed smoking and all other pleasant eccentricities and probably goes once or twice daily down into his very own basement to smoke cigars and drink his wine....someone is still controlling the media here.
Who could remember all that came before or after? Largely the way the whole structure of the Universe could be explained, you give a little, you lose a little, you stand by to remember and note down only what you have gained.
Never bother to try to explain it. I'ts the general scheme of things on earth. Animals don't live as long as we will, so they are convenient to hunt and eat. It's not just that it happens to taste good. I'ts the very stuff of life and source of protein on this here planet. This here finest of all developments, of creation itself, don't ask to explain it, ever, not once, down into tiny meaningless little energy chords or whatever they are loosely called in modern demented physics.
And if you were at all wise, dear little earthlings, you would hold steady to the true course of any true math, most intricately struck in tune by some idiot half-drunken kind of sailor at the doorsteps of an instant merrimaker, troubled by an immense cloud of a constant meddler, Satan, in the midst of doubt and confusion steering the highest minds of our very planet. Right down to the last one steadily ground down for your eyes into defending Einstein's theory as any way to explain reality by both forwards and backwards, the neatest kind of estimation should never have been done in the first place by any kind of math that was ever deememd suitable and fine around here in the first place.
As for me, after safely and effectively crossing the ever-flowing tides of Time into a blossoming young writer just with a firm grasp on a BA in English...I accomplished along the lines of a 2-yr breeze thru undergraduate psychology with a solid A average never to have even achieved one plain old certificate of acknowledgement that I had indeed made it altogether fine and over the hurdle of achieving a second BA in psychology. Not only that, but chiefly by the utter amazement at having achieved all that even by math - probability, statistics, experimental psychology, right on through and out of Intermediate Algebra, while all the while blossoming under number phobia too. Remember, just with all the recently most heavily piled-in genetic information mainly in language. You can't do any one thing in the right order any more with so many technological preferences to choose from. Equally unlikely is for any typical adult to hold onto their own child's hand tightly for dear life at any kind of walking intersection, without this little trail of a thing,
