Which Wolf Will Win?

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.

He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all.

One is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

Cell phone while driving

There are some places where you are already prohibited from using your cell phone while driving (CPWD).  I suppose you could get pulled over by a cop there.  It’s alarming.  It makes me think that lawmakers are out of control and lacking in common sense.  We don’t need the police to cite everyone who uses his CPWD.

I don’t disagree when advocates of similar legislation cite statistics which show that those who use their CPWD are dangerous drivers.   Refer to “common sense” above.

Public Desplays of Insanity are Always a Hoot

I don’t pay much attention to celebrities. They’re an amusing way to pass time in a Saturday afternoon grocery store checkout lane sometimes. My attention span concerning them is almost as long as it is for fast-food employees. In fact, I probably pay more attention to fast-food workers. I don’t eat film. Terrible indigestion. Tom Cruise, however, is somewhat more interesting than the run-of-the-mill Hollywood personification because he seems to have become rabid.

It all begins some 95,000,000 years ago with the establishment of the Galactic Confederation.

Back then Earth was known as Teegeeack (pronounced: T-G-Ack! ?), and several million “people” (178 million per planet, on average) were brought to the planet we now call home.

Xenu, as Darth Sidious was once known, implanted these people with invalid circuitry in order to curb a population explosion. Fortunately, Xenu (or, perhaps, Xemu) was captured by the Loyal Officers who quickly placed him within an electronic prison on some mountain somewhere. While Xenu remains within his electric cell, some others up and disappeared. Who those others are is unclear; L. Ron Hubbard denotes them as “they.”

BBQ Charcoal Lighter Fluid Thoughts

Written by Peter Carmel | 16 June 2005

Now that springtime is here in sunny CA, my thoughts turn to warm weather endeavors. Naturally, this includes the almighty barbeque, which provides the foundation for most warm weather meals. Life in CA does quite seem right without at least one BBQ per week.

Years ago, I used to use starter fluid. It really is the easiest method of lighting charcoal. Just squeeze the can for about 5 seconds, get a match, throw it on the pile of soaked coals, and stand back. Head for cover is closer to the truth. I suppose starter fluid isn’t the safest way to go. It has such a heavenly aroma, though. It reminds me of airplane glue. Your neighbors get all these added benefits, too. Notice how they smile when they head inside for clean air.

Fortunately, we have other far better ways to start those coals. For many years I have used an electric starter.

While these are the cleanest way to go, it does take some extra effort. You have to pile the coals over the heating element, and find an electrical outlet nearby. It might be challenging because you’ll have to find an extension cord. Be careful when you have to remove the heater from the coals. They are hot and could send a few sparks your way.

Lately I have tried the newspaper “chimney” starters that are new on the market.

So ...What really IS de'ja' and why does everybody's brain get it ??

I could have sworn I'd answered this question before. However, having scoured my files, I guess it just seems like I did. Is this a déjà vu experience? No, this is an out-to-lunch experience. I feel it's important to make these fine distinctions lest the meaning of this too casually flung about term become even more muddled in the popular mind.

The definition of déjà vu commonly cited in the medical literature these days is "subjectively inappropriate impressions of familiarity of the present with an undefined past." This definition unfortunately sucks, since it requires you to understand the thing being defined before you can understand the definition. (get that?)

A better take on it is that déjà vu is the uncanny sensation that you are reliving some unknown past experience, or drink to much....
