It's not a monsoon rain.

It is raining gently. When I see the sunlight, I often remember the Asian peasants who tended the land. I see the Lady rice planters, and young women harvesting, and bringing in the sheathes with radiant smiles.

I hear those happy field heh giggles.

I see gleams lit of eyesight's wondering,

And rural peasants did ask this question:

'Why did American parents send sons/daughters',

10,000 miles from their homeland to die so alone,

in the 'Nam's rural peasant Motherland?' I say, 'I am not sure why?'

`

And the dead complexion is reddish, and quickly turns pale.

The dead flayed fall still, and remain so silently but, they contained a sacred secret then in wartime. I gesture with my hand when one expressed such wonder? It's always difficult to expound.

Those sad war-eyes I still can see. When it rains like today,

I see the hate, and potential war that may return to the domestic 'homeland' ...O, Maria. I am sorry too. And mercy on those who kill for dirty filthy lucre? I think it's about time I take a lukewarm bath and quit 'comment letter' writing so darn much. It's aggravation and some days it's too irritating even for me...

kovie.

Yes.

O. O. Hatch is a little bit trite?

O , O.H. is right about we all will die.

Whoever buries 'ole O.H. gets buried too...

And that will happen...Ya's are guaranteed.

Mike. S. ~ Tell the nsa analysis what we wish for...

It's a honest merchant who tells the truth.

We want one who never swears, and is never,

never prone to be hell-bent and very cruel.

So what if the GOP has amassed stolen fortunes?

The heavy burden is weighed @ the end, and they,

descend to darkened underground hellish 'ole Sheol.

It's written elsewhere, and heed the old maxims as counsel.

When a person can talk to the creep-nsa-trolls, ask the troll-nsa- to Listen to ya's. Let them hear you. It can only help? Perdition? O, let's hope not...Indeed, and the NSA should thank you, sincerely.

It may not be the final word; tell the nsa tho...that they have cheated or deceived themself? They destroyed their own self. It's true. It's folly. It's sheer stupidity. It's to cheat their own dang foolish self. It's the epitome of what is recorded throughout history as depredation and very stupid.

O, read, Reid, and O read all about it before ya's croak and the near 'ghost' or whatever...departs the old protoplasmic physical bodily mortal frame.

Decomposition? Yes. But what about the immaterial inner mysterious immaterial aspect, and very common and partial, and very inevitable natural. It's the normal part ~ of the shared human 'predicament'...huh.

O, it's a quiet-wiser truism?

Can the human earlobe-drum hear,

the ping-thump-bingo? It's not so strange.

It's recorded throughout written history, honestly.

Hear the black crow squawk outside right at this moment?

If a civilian human customer has a complaint grievance or a legitimate gripe about a item of merchandise that is flawed,

point it out again and again.

The GOP is a fraud. Recommend,

a change of heart before 'um dead?

The GOP is a 'ole proverbial real fool!

The GOP is a defect and seditious creep?

Can we begin to 'speak' more wholesome plan-positives?

Is this a Monday crow meeting? The black crows do squawk.

P.S. What happened to my paid-in-fool's, Salon's gold-star?

gads.

P.D.A., and Mike Sultzer...Aycharaych too...etc., and all the honest contributions...gads.

It's my day that I'm supposed to be @ a V.A. group...

You know something? gads.

The trolls are even there.

This government needs to be shamed? Yes.

Of course it does, and for their own good.

Hagar? The horrible? Helgar? Zitts? Agnes? Mark Trail? Tank McNamara? Pronce Valiant? Baby Blies? Whoopie! etc.,

Thay all are great comic strip...

O, Wizard of Id? Opus? Non Sequitur?

Sherman's Lagoon? Watch your Head?

Pearls before Swine? Single and Looking?

Mutts? Get Fuzzy? O, Doonesbury? The K Chronicles?

Lio? I even enjoy Candorville. Baldo? etc., Snert. What's that?

He's the Hagar the Horribles dog/cat. growl. meow. Poor Bettle Bailey.

O, WayLay?

I always feel laid in a good way.

Dirigo.

The Nation article.

Thanks. Now, I'll go see and check,

if a ace of hearts is in the mailbox.

Zeitgeister.

I don't have enough brains to know when it's the best time to

fold or shuffle the card-deck.

I like your back-letters reads.

Ace of hearts? Sleight of hand?

Paul Cezanne ~ held some cards.

A political statement is Good.

A queen was a 'scepter' @ bedpost?

It was Ace of Hearts that trumped?

A Ace of Spades? A omen death-card?

A King of Hearts had a lip moustache.

It's safer to only play solitaire games.

Let's hope. O, if YKW is at the Black,

Jack~Table, we in macho big-time-trouble!

Should I use a private e-mail to Salon?

Did I not pay my gold member maintenance dues? Have I been too obnoxious? childish?

What's happening? I try to get on Salon and the Internet says I'm not able -- and will shut down. Then I get on with a guest

pass. I'm confused.

just fun and games?

Wednesday, February 6, 2008 02:42 PM

test? shut down. turn back on. test?

The front page photo of YKW scares the jello-o?

Wednesday, February 6, 2008 02:47 PM

Never mind.

Who cares? It's not worth the aggravations. It's time for supper.

Arnie L.a 'cheers

I just am testing the neighbors computers. I pretend my part time job is determining

what the daily color and flavor should be based on if there are jumping beans or peanuts in peoples computers.

Today's color code:
