My Testimonials

November 30, 2003
Meditating upon the name "glen wells" brings a smile to my face. "Glen": a secluded valley, "Well": an issue of water from the earth, a pool fed by a spring." Both of these names bring a feeling of refreshment to my soul. Think of the calm of sitting in a secluded valley, think of how rejuvenating a pool of spring water is to a thirsty soul, now think of Glen, he fits his name completely. His poetry flows from his heart, calming and rejuvenating others. He is talented and compassionate, two qualities that work synergistically with one another to produce beautiful results. I am blessed to call glen wells a friend and to be an audience and admirer of his work. ~Q~

about me
Absence. I dreamed of you again last night. How I wish I did not. How I grateful I am that I do. You are always with me and yet I cannot find you. You exist in some far off place in a far off time and yet you are always with me in the here and now. Are you only the smoke of my dreams or memories of a reality a long time past. Will I ever know? Do I really want to know? How I hate this memory that leaves these tears on my pillow. How happy I am for this smile they leave in their place. borrowed Tamara, stolen like a thief, that almost always gives back, more than taken, shared relief, respite, enjoy! Digital rectal massage has been recommended as a remedy that causes immediate cessation of hiccups and which should be tried before resorting to drugs. some doubt as to if land reform causes any permanent change, as cycles endlessly spin control to and fro. Back to the ancients, that cast the world into the shape it has retained for millennia.
almost certainly any simulation would contain knowing players, and those players would be constructs with a historical beginning, that included the basic myths we continue to be saddled with, their inability to forget and their unwavering stubbornness to continue trying to not remember.
ACHOO!!~"I don't know. Are you serious?"

"For example if there is a God who is omniscient, his knowledge would not be axiom based."


possibly a useless example, in so far as it answers everything and nothing.
omniscience might cause simulation in order to observe thought waves in a dimensional form, any early creative form would soon learn boredom and soon after learn to hide it, thus forgetfulness is born, not long after forgiveness becomes a default selection, omniscience is forsaken.
The ensuing mess is left behind for others to cleanup and fix.
Enjoy! Suffer the consequences otherwise.

To risk being is no great risk at all, the trend is toward artificial and non-art merging, as well as being comfortable together as natural symbiots, or simply co-operating in a harmonious way, if the word symbiot is a freak-out word to you, you could call it chubbly wubbly if it reduces your fear factor any, as far as evolution is concerned, why not call it revolving, kind of like turning a corner, something you might want to do in case you ever came to a corner or bend and found going straight would put you over an edge that might require extensive climbing appratus that you might have left behind while preparing for a Sunday stroll down memory lane that somehow landed you into next week.



It sounds to me that an unnatural structure would not exist except perhaps as pure imagination. What prevents energy from occupying all cells? Or what draws energy to only certain cells? Is it in some cases at least just a matter of time until energy is everywhere and everywhen?
And when did you decide to join the evil parade of wasting time with irrelvances and confusing languages beyond Babel as if yesterday was still happening like it really was 'only' yesterday and to day is just a matter of after shocks, to discover the forming of languages only meant you can say the exact same thing with different coded markings.

Why We Fight
kenmacleod.blogspot.com/

Why We Fight
www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...785.html
A 'senior serving soldier' tells The Independent about some problems with training the Afghan police:
We went out to Helmand to mentor the Afghan National Police without understanding the level they were at. We thought we would be arresting people, helping them to police efficiently. Instead we were literally training them how to point a gun on the ranges, and telling them why you should not stop cars and demand "taxes".

Most of them were corrupt and took drugs, particularly opium. The lads would go into police stations at night and they would be stoned; sometimes they would fire indiscriminately at nothing.

It was difficult just getting them to a basic level, to do things like man a post. They would take drugs, go to sleep, leave their post, have sex with each other.

"What?" ~ Ken


when there is too much good stuff readily available, there is hell to pay.
if the blue grass lawn was cannabis, would I be tempted still?
if the potted plants of petunias suddenly sprouted poppies, could I resist again.
at present now it's a matter more now of being allergic.
there may be something said for being signed, sealed and delivered for.
a controlled substance by defining that grows uncontrolled might need a cultivator with less interest in what self-service it could bring.

or look at this way, 'they' were infiltrators, and they were very loyal indeed.
very convincing in the part they were assigned as basically support staff who had no real interest or skill in fighting.

Battle of Ideas
kenmacleod.blogspot.com/
Frankenstein's Daughters: from science fiction to science fact
www.battleofideas.org.uk/index.../2502/

Developments in pre-implantation genetic diagnosis and screening (PGD and PGS) allow couples to avoid having children with life-threatening conditions, but they also imply the possibility that some specific forms of disability will be ‘screened out’, raising the prospect of a generation of ‘designer babies’. Many religious groups rail against scientists ‘playing God’. While some disability campaigners fear that the use of PGD and PGS will devalue people born with disabilities, disabled people could potentially use ARTs to select a child that shares their physical impairment: in one high-profile case a deaf couple challenged the assumption that an embryo likely to be deaf should be rejected. Current UK law means ‘normal’ embryos must always be preferred, but is this appropriate given that the state does not prevent two deaf people from becoming parents together ordinarily.

"The audience response came from several different points of view, and a stimulating dialogue developed. Ann Furedi of BPAS, from the floor, questioned the widespread idea of ethics as being about what we shouldn't do, rather than about what we should - a point that turned my closing response into a little rant about just what a change there would be if more of us started thinking in terms of what we bloody well should be doing." ~ Ken




a should could exist without the should spoken or maybe even inferred, something like or exactly as this could do...remember....honor...
should nots, or shall nots, like a wish, a prediction, and for some the same as, or almost a command.
even can sound like a request. perhaps just a language barrier or snafu, could depend on a 'state of grace' or a lack of one, a mixed meddling of influence, or what it was that was response. left with so many 'devices', what would/should.could one expect?

A step forward for genetic embryo-screening
Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), which screens embryos for inherited disease so that only unaffected ones are implanted in the womb, has helped hundreds of families to have healthy children since it was developed in the late 1980s by a team led by Professor Alan Handyside of Hammersmith Hospital.

So, I followed my friend Anthony to a church yesterday, not quite like I've done with other friends and family before.
At first I thought its name was St. Luke, and presumed to find some Catholic believers there. But no, I misunderstood, the full name turned out to be St. Lucas United Church of Christ. And the minister whose name is Lynn, reminded me of Brother Allen, Reverend Lyman Smith Allen, the first such man of God I ever did see.
(Lyman Smith Allen was one of the most influential ministers in the community of Henderson. He had been active in the civil rights movement and the reform movement in the community of Henderson. His sage philosophy was for someone who wants to know how to get and keep the trust of people, his philosophy that he had taught for over thirty years of his ministry.)
And Brother Lynn started talking and wanted to talk about Jesus, the Guy, not Jesus the God or Son of God or maybe even Jesus, the Holy Redeemer, and he asked what the first century Christians were called, since they were not called Christians yet, of course they were called followers. And some would call themselves Friends. And Lynn seemed to want to go back to a simpler time, about 50 A.D. I think, and try to think and feel what that might have been like. Many were Jews and some were Gentiles, there was a Doctor, and a Fisherman, and even there came to be Tax Collectors, Whores but maybe not any pimps, there were Mothers and Brothers, Sisters and Lovers, and so many Poor, poor in what I don't know, surely not in Spirit, nor poor in Love, and while at times some food was scarce, they still would share as equals are wont to do. And Lynn talked more about acting like Jesus than just wanting to worship him, just wanting to thank him for his sacrifice, just wanting to pray to him, asking for forgiveness, more about following what Jesus did in life and not as much about what happens after death, more about feeding the hungry, healing the sick, teaching those who want to learn, not giving in to hate, anger and especially to injustice.

So, in some sense the Age of Gods has passed, and truly as in the 'Lord of the Rings' we have come upon the Age of Humor, the laughing ones who have known so much Joy, so much sadness, we laugh until we cry, we laugh to keep from crying, so much madness has come to pass, we sometimes laugh without knowing why, and cry with a suddenness that only broken hearts can understand, or mended ones who had a helping hand from a friend who he followed to church one day...
