speaking of da Vinci, rather Leonardo da Vinci speaking about ancients and Johan Joachim Winkelmann adds; "There is but one way for the moderns to become great, and perhaps unequalled; I mean, by imitating the ancients." It is a no brainer, really. Ancient Greeks had already figured out everything before Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle dumbed us down.

The little sidekick I have been hanging with the past few weeks made creative use of a broomstick when a neighbors pig wandered into the yard waking us when her dogs began barking at the small pig. She grabbed a broomstick and began gently sweeping the grass. She wasn't even close to the pig but the sweeping of the broom was in the direction of the pig. Somehow this broom sweeping sent the pig scurrying back to its home. Three barking dogs and a few bites from them didn't force the pig out of the yard. However, the gentle sweeping of a broom did the charm.

“I shall tell you a great secret, my friend. Do not wait for the last judgment, it takes place every day.” “The purpose of a writer is to keep civilization from destroying itself.” “But in the end one needs more courage to live than to kill himself.” “Real generosity towards the future lies in giving all to the present.” “Thinking of the future, establishing aims for oneself, having preferences—all this presupposes a belief in freedom, even if one occasionally ascertains that one doesn’t feel it.” “In the past, the poverty they shared had a certain sweetness about it. When the end of the day came and they would eat their dinner in silence with the oil lamp between them, there was a secret joy in such simplicity, such retrenchment.”

My guess is; Whether Q is legit or not, things gonna get interesting around the end of October, 1st week of November. Remember, remember the fifth of November vi veri veniversum vivus vici

UBI is another scheme to dis-empower folks by making them more dependent on the state and less independent. It is not much different than when friendly neighborhood crack dealers began giving out free samples. Feel that rush? Wanna try another? sup sucka?

The continual cultivation of Virtue is all you need. Do that and everything else falls into place. The "signs" are a by product of cultivating virtue or channeled and are never achieved by having "powers" as a goal. If one wanted to demonstrate extraordinary abilities they aint never gonna get them. There are a few that might be able to demonstrate extraordinary abilities, however, without cultivating Virtue, those will diminish and vanish. By cultivating Virtue, Spiritual connections are made and this allows a definite qigong foundation. edit> I think I just repeated Luke's opening paragraph. Ah well

I am not able to express as eloquently as these many fine selections do. I see virtue as power, or at the least virtue is an expression of power.

I am inclined to agree with this 100% at the same time, and it is only my opinion; sincerity is never denied.

The Laughing Heart by Charles Bukowski your life is your life don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission. be on the watch. there are ways out. there is light somewhere. it may not be much light but it beats the darkness. be on the watch. the gods will offer you chances. know them. take them. you can’t beat death but you can beat death in life, sometimes. and the more often you learn to do it, the more light there will be. your life is your life. know it while you have it. you are marvelous the gods wait to delight in you.

3d printed downloadable plastic guns may have run into a snag. maybe 12,000 have already downloaded a little earlier than the August 1st agreed upon date. This could be in the courts again. In the meanwhile don't worry that millions of downloads already occurred before the previous court battle began. Whatever the court decides, there is no stopping what has already been downloaded. I'm not much for plastic ware, myself. A judge ordered a temporary halt to Cody Wilson's Defense Distributed and they will likely comply with that order. Didn't stop another site from opening up overnite with the same blueprints. And they are operating under the premise that Shall Not Be Infringed applies to their 1st & 2nd amendments. When a sufficient number of folks ignore a 55 mph speed limit the law changes. When a sufficient number of folks smoke weed, the laws change. Like it or not, we live in a nation and culture of guns. They are not going away and restrictions will be removed. When a sufficient number of folks decide that the two party system has outlived its usefulness--- like I said beginning August 1st and here we are.
