The Bucket List
Things to do before I "kick the bucket"
-----------------
Build an ultra-light amphibian
Go snorkling in the Caribbean
Go flying over the desert again
Build a hydroplane boat
Four-wheel up the mountain trail
Go sailing on a Caribbean schooner
Jump out of an airplane again
Build a three wheeled motorcycle
Go scuba diving in the Caribbean
Publish a book of my photographs
Drink rum on the St. Croix beach
Ride my motorcycle across the country
Go fishing with my kids again
Bone up on my sailing skills
Take the time to save the world
Go on vacation with my wife
Spend a day at a nudist camp
Buy a sailboat and sail away
Find an island and live there for awhile
Run around naked on the beach
---------------
You're gonna die...
You better get moving

Interdependence
I am always fascinated to see how the observations of early Eastern Philosophers, in this case the teaching of interdependence between sentient beings, prefigured the findings of modern-day Neuroscience.
Fear and Loathing
"He who makes a beast of himself
gets rid of the pain of being a man"

Was banned...
Long Banned On YouTube, Is Back.
by Sara Thomsen - Why It Was Banned For So Long?
I have No Clue. Enjoy.
She created this just before it was known that BushII would be "illegally selected" as the gateway to the corporatists' final take-over of our nation, around '97 or '98, I think...
Just before the cheerleader, (Phillips Academy in Andover, Mass.,) moved to Crawford, TX, to become the pretend
"just a good old boy" American.
Zentai
The Zentai Project
is a group of people
who go out in public
wearing Zentai suits
for the amusement of themselves
and the public.

Coherent curriculum
No other country, with a history of successful education, applies economic principles of competition and incentives to the teaching profession. It’s too narrow-focused. There are so many other variables to consider. Community, family, individual differences. Schools are not factories. No other nation, with a successful school system, abandons courses in cultural subjects, like music and foreign languages, to focus only on basic skills and testing. Schools work best when teachers collaborate to help students, not when they compete for higher scores and bonuses. Otherwise, the lesson we’re teaching our children is: how best to be nothing more than a fucking commodity.
In education, collaboration is not socialism !!
