Thinking of going to DC for a few nights.
Might shake hands with the Prez, and sit in Lincoln's lap if I can get up there.

Jim, you spoiled that safe feeling I had  for me now Jim! :)

I feel dizzy!

Have a good one!!!

Jan

We are on a rock, that's spinning at 1,000 mph,
travelling around the sun at 80,000 mph,
with rocks the size of baseball diamonds coming at us.
with only 2 miles of breathable air above us
And we feel safe.
What could be crazier than that?

Hi Jim!

Just read your "Time is in a bottle" story.

Very interesting thought and also very well written!

Got your name, I forgot it, when Don came back for a gig at GE.

CU!!!!

Jan {one Cube away I sat at GE Healthcare}

Hi Jim!

Yep, it's me! We were about to buy a house but we were outbid twice, think a little Angel was interfering
because she can she the Time Bottle we're in and had some credit with the Gods to interfere :) "Why Jan,
why? Tell us, The suspense is killing us!!!!" :)

We are going to California baby!!!!!!! My wife's job was relocated there, to Carlsbad and now I'm going
too! We're going to drive, a road trip, "Fear in Loathing In Carlsbad" We shipped the Civic, and the
Chrysler LHS form 2000 {Yes, I bought a boat!!!!! :} and I love it!!!!!! Great big American car. A dream
come true} we will drive. Nice chance to see the whole West coast,
head to toe. My wife will fly back here and then we drive all together. Will be great fun. Will try to take
some 101 and go through the South Oregon mountains.

How are you doing! Having fun I read in Pensylvania. Hope all is well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good to hear from you again, you were out of reach, but thanks to Don I learned it was LVDUDE to put
be back on track of your site!!!!!!!

Greetings from a cold Bellevue where it's supposed to snow tonight!!!!

If there is only one past, then isn't it only logical that there is only one future.
I've heard theories about multiple possible futures, but when it arrives, there could have only been one path to it.
So, if there is only one possible future, and one possible past then the present is just a slice of time between in the two.
With this reasoning, we can go as far as to say we are just characters in a play.
People 100 years in the future will be able to look back and see every you thing did, and know that you had to do it for their world to exist.
Everthing that ever will happen in our future, has already happened in someone elses past.
Our consciousnes is taking us through an inevitable series of events.
And whatever we do, we are supposed to do.
Everything is exactly the way it is, because it has to be.
And there is nothing that says destiny had to be created from the past to the future.
It could have been created in reverse.
And I'd be willing to bet that the end of time was conceived first.

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooodmorning Jim!

Sounds great your adventures on the West Coast! I was there with Thanks Giving and saw and heard the pacific for the first time. Awesome!!!!!
I think I arrived in heaven. I like the sea. I was born in a city called Harlingen in the north of Holland, so I like being at the coast, hang out,
stare into infinity, feel the sea breeze and enjoy the sun sets. My son also likes it, the first moment there he already got totally soaked and sandy,
2 hours before we had to fly back.

When "LVDudes Brotherly Love Shack" is officially open I will stop by to join a ceremony!!!!! :)

Time for coffee and some programming.

Have a great week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If a tree falls in the forest, and no one is around to hear it, does there a sound?
For most of my life, I thought that was a stupid question. Of course there is a sound.

I didn't realize the depth of that question.
My answer now is, "No, it does not make a sound". Without perception, the universe does not exists.
Thought, as it turns out, is reality. Dimensions exist within thoughts and without thought, nothing matters.
There was no time before the big bang. There was no space. I can see it now. There was nothing.

I think it was a thought that created this universe.
And when we die, our universe will cease to exist.
In a very real sense, this universe exists because we are here.
And it just may be, if you wish there is a heaven to go to when you die, that is where you will go, and that may be another illusion.
I'd like to hang around. To discover the universe is to discover the dreams of the creator.
Perhaps God did create you in his own image. Perhaps you are here to discover the beauty this creation.

I got this from a dream.
In my dream, the spirit of death wasn't a separate entity.
Now that I think about it, I realize it was me.
When he told me to come, I told him no. I told him I'd like to stay here.
This creation is my heaven, complete with beauty, magnificense, awe, happiness, sorry, horror and delight.
Ane even in an eternity wouldn't be enough time to understand all that there is out there.

I lay down to sleep, and dreamed I that died in my sleep.
I was in a city and the angel of death came to me. I didn't like his voice or his personality.
He said  "You have to come with me".
I said, "I think I'm just going to hang out here, and watch the animals, plants, and sky. I won't bother anything".
Then he changed the world into fire and said "You must come".
I said, "I think the fire is beautiful, I'd like to stay here if that's okay".
Then he changed the world to empty space, and said "This will be your eternity"
And I said, "This is wonderful, all of those solar systems with planets like ours. Please, I'd like to stay here".
And he said, "You Must Come".
And I said, "I'm staying here".
I remember feeling fear about going with him. He was going to take me to a place that I didn't understand.
Then I woke up in my bed with a smile.
I love this life. I love my dreams.

Scary Movies - I gotta see 2012.
I love scary movies.
I love the previews, with the earthquakes and all. Course, none of that makes sense.
I'd think we'd either get a really nasty suntan, run out of breathable air for 10 minutes, or something not nearly as dramatic as bridges and buildings falling down.
And that is why I love scary movies. They're aren't possible.
Dramas scare me for just the opposite reason
Because they are possible. Divorce, unemployment, heart attack, car accident, hunger, disease...those are the real monsters.
They're horrifying! I'll take a horror movie any day over a drama.
