Ploti, my buddy, I am sure the stars were not annoyed with you. They're pissed as hell at me, though.

I’ve studied signs, and know their marks

It has a tendency to tell you what you need to know, whether you think it's answering your question or not.

I read I Ching professionally, and it's amazing. Subscribe to Benebell Wen on YouTube, and get her translation of I Ching if you can. It could save a typical student a year or more of fumbling around with opaque translations.

That book is quite dense. Almost as hard to read as the ancient sources.

Is there a guy out there who is obsessed with gematria, especially of the name David, and who goes around collecting other people's info for a database?

I have dreamed about him twice.

Reminder:

Do you find that it gives you more objectivity, or more capacity to understand different views?

In 1962, a music teacher gave me to understand that I couldn't sing. Here I am today with UUCB's MUUsicShare group at a memory care facility. We led a sing-along of old familiar tunes for the residents. I sang just fine, thanks.

Ignore this, it's a note to myself about a dream

I must remember to write about the f. a. c.

We may never know for sure, but Smith was the only one who could have forged it.

Challenge surmounted!

"Duke's Mayonnaise is half off at Publix" is the most Southern sentence ever, but true now.

‘So, it's real? It's real?’ Leonard Peltier responds with disbelief in learning he would finally be able to leave prison after nearly 50 years

Lost in all the terrible news: President Biden commuted Leonard Peltier's sentence to time served, in the last half-hour of his Presidency.

Any young folk who don't know who Leonard is, eddicate yourselves: ictnews.org/news/so-its-...

Correct. NO ONE GIVES AN UNINTENTIONAL NAZI SALUTE.

I remember when Be Here Now cost $3.30, said the Old Hippie.

Ad fontes!

This situation is quintessentially Platonic. Plato had "Let no one ignorant of geometry enter here" over the door primarily because of the mathematical vision of Timaeus, but every student of Euclid knows what I said above.

When doing Classical geometry, you are making a coarse model of a fine reality (due to limits imposed by the solidity of the implements), yet you learn things about the ideal realm envisioned in the definitions.

I guessed around that many, but my old memory wasn't up to more than that.

I got 20/20, a sign of a youth spent in libraries 🤓
