5297. ElliottRW, I was reading The Good Nanny by Benjamin Cheever tonite.
Each last sentence is title of the chapter, BTW, in that book.
For instance, the title of the chapter is "Thank God you didn't go into medicine".
And that would be about the last line in that cahpter.
An excerpt from :
"So much depends upon a red necktie," Stuart said, "covered with wheelbarrows" He went into the bathroom, shut the door, switched on a light.
The comment was interesting because earlier in the book, there was a discourse about one mixing up what one had seen in TV, movies, print, as one own's experience. 5460. Ulgine Barrows - 5/12/2005 8:24:28 AM Hope you can all decipher that, since I can't edit.
Basically, some Cheever author stole a line, and I would never have known if it weren't for you swabs at the Mote.
I wouldn't condemn the whole book - it was good- but.
Reeked of plagarism, when I read that line after reading here. 5461. Ulgine Barrows - 5/12/2005 8:26:59 AM But I must be mixed up with TV, movies, print. 5462. Ulgine Barrows - 5/12/2005 8:56:45 AM Smirk

Ten Years After 50,000 MILES BENEATH MY BRAIN lyrics
Ten Years After 50,000 MILES BENEATH MY BRAIN lyrics
I want to know you
I want to show you
I want to grow you
Inside of me
I want to see you
I want to free you
I want to be you
Inside of me
Love me 50,000 miles beneath my brain
Love me 50,000 times and then again
Can you love me with a thousand eyes?
Can you see right through my bones?
Can you kiss me with a thousand lips?
Can you melt a solid stone?
Can you hear me from a thousand miles
When you're screaming at the stars?
Can you pull me up to Jupiter
When I'm all hung up on Mars?
Burn my eyes with your flame
Let your world spin free
Let it go, baby
I'll do the same
All depends on me
Let it go
It's all the same
What with jewels that you can't see
Love me, love me, love me, love me, love me, babe
Bring it on home to me... 5464. NuPlanetOne - 5/29/2005 6:55:30 PM
Law on Zarkive (Rhymes with Archive)
Long after it was coded in rockets we loaded
A far off species eventually decoded our
Symbols and samples and strands and bands
And realized the helix was fully encoded with
All that was required to have us rewired but
Having acquired many others in the past the
Desired qualities and known flaws cast in the
Samples created a pause, was subject to a clause
In the reanimation codes, and these governing
Laws were final and stated that all things alive
Would be encouraged to thrive yet failure to
Survive by an unnatural cause must discourage
And never encourage and forever rid and effectively
Forbid the resurrection of species extinct
Even if the detection portrayed no hostility
But as stated in the section on the inherent ability
Of viable and totally reliable copies, the mere possibility
Of a violent predilection would automatically
And emphatically deny an awakening as the fear
Of infection from autocratically inclined beings
Poses an unacceptable and defined and clear risk and
Should be confined and assigned a ‘Do Not Revive’
So the rulers on Zarkive put us is the archive
5465. Ulgine Barrows - 5/31/2005 9:28:32 AM reanimation codes?
revolting codes, maybe.
So what, are you saying there, NuPlanetOne? Science is about as exact as humanity and all its imperfections? 5466. NuPlanetOne - 6/1/2005 5:45:11 AM Ulgine/
I thought reanimation was dead on. Or un-dead on as it were. Am I saying science is inexact? Not at all. At least not on Zarkive. Although some variables used in identifying extinct species within the coding of the algorithms designed to decipher possible emotional or altruistic tendencies in determining the process by which candidates for revival of ancient or recently extinguished beings are evaluated, it is the technical exactitude of the program itself, once specified, that determines the qualification.
But yes, I do most definitely believe that science is only as exact as human nature and human genius, collectively, will allow it to be. Yet, I do also feel that science, as a process of theory, experiment, confirmation and then acceptance, is, ultimately, the closest approximation to determining truth and meaning. Justice, liberty, and free will, for good or ill, is left to whim, faith, and mutation.
Now, Zarkivian free will had evolved to a point where all sections and races of individuals are by default equally exposed to all information and opportunity. Inequalities are based on how one absorbs, processes and implements the universal and mutually available pool of knowledge. Though as always, there is a pecking order. But all Zarchivians, at least, can grasp the core axioms. Utopian? No, because in this location in the universe physical and material inequalities are unusual. Anyway…envy and greed are alive and well and account as always for the depth and richness, which are the drama of everyday life. So what I was trying to say, in this case, conversely, is that science is not only perfect but has evolved to a point where it can compensate for human imperfections. I think that is how beings that exist in the distant future will have managed to get there. My point was that the imperfections we registered upon examination met the criteria to keep us from being revived in that distant future. It was tongue-in-cheek in rhyme. But it could happen. Ten or twenty thousand years is really so little time out there….forward or back.
5467. RickNelson - 6/15/2005 5:49:45 PM I'm sorry, I've had a few mornings over at PFray, but I don't stop home to chat or check in.
Now, I'm about to depart on a one month vacation to my wife's home. All four of us are going, so our little, one year old boy can meet his relatives overseas.
He's just as adorable as can be. I'll post pictures when I get back.
A week ago, I had a chance to write a little bit.
Fool:
Do you wait to be unconfined
as if something comes, grand and divine-
the eloquent wind blows,
and each word pretends it knows,
just how to feel,
as if anyone,
thinks they know,
how I feel- as King fink.
I'll put it to you,
for what it's worth,
to be creative,
as green hued
growth, yet dance
to drums
of the Bad Lands.
As the tempo,
is blood
flowing in my hands.
Tipped hat, clacked cane
and falling rain,
generations forget.
Oh, they know,
how youth feel zeal,
Impatience-
For-
The past they steal.
Philosophers,
Poets and
Politicians,
feed their futures
to greedy vultures,
always cock-sure
of a bust
Sculpture.
It's forbidden to walk
in someone's shoes.
that knowledge
breaks the bed,
dead and dangling,
as the fall of a fool. 5468. Magoseph - 6/15/2005 6:34:53 PM Bon voyage, Rick!
