32: and Kip did speak unto the forum, saying, "I kid you not, Traci."
33: Kip spake further, thus: "Where are *our* Humes and spinozas, and our Jeffersons and Franklins, and our Hobbs and Locke?" cried she.
34: With woe she beat her fists against keyboard, crying, "Why do we have no one who is out there listening to all the world's ideas, and letting them help in creating new and better systems?"
35: and the forum did pause, and reflect.

I've only seen Horus the cat a couple of times but he seems quite gato-esque.
Kip is a fun dinner companion and extremely knowledgeable on a number of subjects. Like me, she doesn't suffer fools lightly and that's not a bad thing as I see it. I like thought-provoking people and Kip certainly is that.
She also deserves a job where her manifest talents can be put to good use.
Dad & step-mom's cat died
(blog entry)
It's such a hard thing to hear, when they say "I had to put my cat down". the pain is so close still, for putting Dulci down. The irony, or rather i guess, the strange thing is how similar the two cat's illnesses were. I didn't have the Ultra s...

I figured out the answer to abortion

Neuter the male humans at or near birth. YOu already cut off the tip of thier wee wee, why not just go a bit further and snip it?
See, this would solve all teh problems. Since its mostly men who whine and moan about women's choices to have ...

Silence
(blog entry)
I miss silence.
I watched some japanese flick this weekend, which, like many japanese flicks, uses silence as american flicks use bombs, booms, screams, screatches, etc.
There is a film about silence that i want to find, which basically asks...

Fuck Agendas

Good god, why are so many people so damn fucking narrowminded about everything they don't like.
"I hate christians, cause they are too stupid to see thier own falicies".
"I hate muslims cause they blow us up"
"I hate atheists cause they don'...

Grief & grieving
(blog entry)
My house is empty.
Even with a cat and a husband, it is quite.
Her clicky paws no longer click on the floor, telling me she's comming
her purrs no longer calm my heart.
it feels so quiet at night.
And despite a husband and another c...

Earth, round, rolling, compact---suns, moons, animals---all these are words to be said;
Watery, vegetable, sauroid advances---beings, premonitions, lispings of the future,
Behold! these are vast words to be said.
Were you thinking that those were the words---those upright lines? those curves, angles, dots?
No, those are not the words---the substantial words are in the ground and sea,
They are in the air---they are in you.
Were you thinking that those were the words---those delicious sounds out of your friends' mouths?
No, the real words are more delicious than they.
Human bodies are words, myriads of words;
In the best poems re-appears the body, man's or woman's, well-shaped, natural, gay,
Every part able, active, receptive, without shame or the need of shame.
about me
I love to cook and eat, especially chocolate. I am into linguistics, philosophy, religion (to study, not practice). I'm best described as a "atheist pagan". Hey, it works for me.
It's such a hard thing to hear, when they say "I had to put my cat down". the pain is so close still, for putting Dulci down. The irony, or rather i guess, the strange thing is how similar the two cat's illnesses were. I didn't have the Ultra sound done, that they did on Coco, but they found that he had pancrass cancer, and it had hit his liver, and his kidneys, etc. Probably we would have found similar things in ms. Dulci.
I elected not to bother with the ultra sound, not only for fin...

See, this would solve all teh problems. Since its mostly men who whine and moan about women's choices to have abortions (and oh by the way, men who don't want to pay for the brats they make), this is the perfect solution.
Our cats are neutered at 6 weeks old. We allow one male per 100 or so to stay intact. one male for every 10 or 15 women. but enough ...

There is a film about silence that i want to find, which basically asks, when you turn off the car engins, and teh screams, and the gunshots, and the explosions - what can a camera hear. The artist goes into "quiet" places, and just listens.
I have a delicious set of films made for "HD" called "sunrise earth". it's...

"I hate christians, cause they are too stupid to see thier own falicies".
"I hate muslims cause they blow us up"
"I hate atheists cause they don't know god"
then to convince themselves of thier stance, these people choose only that which reinforces thier position and says "see, there it is". FUCK grow up !!!!
To christians of The Book (and you know who you are) - it's time you began to...

And despite a husband and another cat, i feel so alone.
