Well August 2007
Happiness to all despite ourselves for it is perhaps a miracle
that we are here at all aye?
The cold war a distant memory but the world and humanity held
hostage by a few with the threat of global annhilation.
So how did we endure, some calling it luck, but perhaps more a miracle
born of the hearts of a few.
So here we are.
Welcome to the global village.
Does the village have a capital?
Where is the village hall?
well perhaps no matter.
A billion voices chattering away...
The din of the universe.
Is there an emergent thread or wish amongst the din...
Perhaps we should listen thus...????
A collective sigh as the old guard passes on and a new one emerges.
Did the old guard fail us for the cold war threat?
Hard to say but now the worry of the day, global climate change.
They say the temp rise caused the 2004 Tsunami and the Tsunami thus
effected the hydrological cycle which effected the weather patterns
so on and on goes the merry sequence of cause and effect.

Ah whats to become of us....
the future is now yet what is it?


well anyway happy august 2007 all

for whats its worth.

you have to get out and push, when the fumes run out too. And then there is always hitchhiking...

Early one saturday morning, leaving Oswego NY, after camping out in the middle of the local colleges football field, I first got a ride from a lady who was on her way to a rennacainse fair to sell essential oils and homemade candles. She told me the cure for poison oak / Ivy / sumac was to bathe in your first mornings pee, as it contains the anti bodies against the poison. She said it worked for her once. " well, it may work", I said, but I don't think that the people who pick me up hitchhiking will take me very far". We had a good laugh about that. She dropped me off at an intersection a few miles past her turnofff, as many northern New Yorkers seem to enjoy doing, where I stood for a good hour, as it was saturday, and it was still early, and there wasn't much traffic.

Then came a car, going in the opposite direction from that which I wanted to go. The lady rolled down her window and said, " I'm sorry that I can't give you a ride, be cause I'm going the other way, but I thought that you might like these", and she thrusted a big bag of freshly picked cherries into my hands.


I was in cherry growing and wine country!

I stood there another half hour or so, eating the whole bag of them, spitting out the stones, until my next ride stopped.

Ahh, the people I've met on this journey, if even briefly...
