I\u2019ve even got the papers to prove it; just like doctors have degrees and dogs have fleas and something\u2026 something\u2026 Dylan said, \u201cGeez, I can\u2019t find my knees\u201d or something to that effect. I don\u2019t mean to wind you up; I\u2019m just working my way into this from a different angle.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m staying in the home of an elderly woman who tends to watch a lot of TV. I meet and greet with her on occasions and so I catch a bit of cooking shows, German soap operas and The Olympics. I haven\u2019t been around at the news hour so that must conflict with some routine of mine. I don\u2019t know which routine because, not having seen it, I don\u2019t know what it conflicts with; not important. It\u2019s about The Olympics after all.<\/p>\n<p>The time I spend in socializing is not extended and I\u2019m only catching it out of the corner of my eye most of the time but it\u2019s enough; more than enough actually. What I\u2019ve encountered so far are people going real fast downhill on skis while weaving around slender flag poles or else, going cross country with a gun that they fire at circles of one color and if they hit it, it turns into another color and off they go again and again and again. There\u2019s something meaningful here. There\u2019s something epic. That\u2019s what they\u2019re saying anyway. Other times you get people in ski suits being given stuffed bears and chatting away with a Twinkie Hostess. The lights flash off the face jewelry; lips rings, nose studs, whatever.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re talking in German and sometimes I get it and sometimes I don\u2019t but to be truthful, I don\u2019t get it at all. I know it\u2019s something important but I can\u2019t figure out why. There\u2019s an endless line of one person after another waiting for medals in three different hues and a much larger group that are just waiting and I hear they do this kind of thing on a regular basis; every four years they do it. Some very few of them are going to be famous for awhile and a great many of them are going to be famous for a short period of time and it\u2019s all brought to you by the people who make guns and Coca Cola or whatever makes enough money from selling it that they can pay for the time to tell you about it.<\/p>\n<p>I saw a documentary recently about gamers and the pro circuit that they have and the narrator kept using the word, \u201cathletes\u2019. We were being led to believe that gamers are athletes. I thought it was pretty funny when they tried that with golfers but gamers? Anyway\u2026 the people at The Olympics are certainly athletes according to the way I understand it; most of them anyway. I\u2019m not sure about bobsledding. I\u2019m not sure about anything. Are race car drivers athletes? Do they have to run laps as well? Do they go into training like a boxer?<\/p>\n<p>I might be wandering away from the point I had in mind but that\u2019s okay, it\u2019s my space. I can skateboard across my keyboard in a pink tutu if I want to. Anyway, I\u2019m going to go back to my point. I\u2019ve been getting a peripheral Olympics and thinking; what\u2019s the point? That\u2019s why I think I might be going crazy because I find myself asking that about almost everything almost all of the time. There doesn\u2019t seem to be a point really.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m listening to \u201cSilent Running\u201d by Mike and the Mechanics. It\u2019s an eerie thing; interwoven through the British experience, run many slender threads of silver and gold and there are precious gems indeed. The spirit is crying. You hear the spirit crying here and there\u2026 reaching because\u2026<\/p>\n<p>It believes\u2026 it believes it can reach it \u2026and prays that it will keep the family safe on the way. \u201cCan you hear me running?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You know something that constantly amazes me? I see people doing all kinds of seemingly spectacular things in all kinds of venues and reaping the fruit thereof. I see titans of industry and heads of state, brimming with force and fingersnapping lives away and fuggeddaboutit! I see billboards of whatever is beautiful on today\u2019s menu, writhing like sixteen million different kinds of exotica and it\u2019s got smooth surfaces and moist jungle regions and hot panting effervescent promises that go on forever and\u2026 oh and a whole lot more but I don\u2019t feel like doing a Michael Jackson all up and down the keyboard to make my point. I\u2019m not at the Olympics so it\u2019s not necessary. Thing is\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>I see all of this stuff going on and it\u2019s been going on over and over for thousands and millions of years like something for the benefit of Mr. Kite and all this preening and posing and accepting awards and I look up at the sky and I see a million suns blazing in a space way too big to comprehend and I think\u2026 hmmmm\u2026 \u201cis (that real) compared to what?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m on a tiny planet and I am surrounded by countless larger celestial bodies AND on this tiny planet I am way, way tinnier yet. On this planet there are tremendous oceans and enormous mountain ranges. I don\u2019t think I have to list the features. Someone did this. Someone did all of this. Now, how does anything that happens on this tiny planet in relation to all of these celestial bodies, compare to whoever did this? The kicker is that the entire universe fits inside my head. It lives there. It lives in your head too. You may only be paying attention to a particular part of it but it\u2019s all there.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes you hear someone say, \u201cYou\u2019re not going to believe this.\u201d I have personally seen various things many, many times that most people would not believe; do not want to believe and would run screaming from and have to be locked up for the rest of their life if they did see it \u2026and some of them are. I\u2019ve seen these things and I suspect a lot more than what I\u2019ve seen and I am not alone. There are a lot of people like me. We aren\u2019t very many compared to the rest but relatively speaking we\u2019re more than a few and then, there are the Olympics and the awards ceremonies around the globe for all sorts of exceptional acts of mutual frottage and collective deception; I shall ring Nobel before its time (grin).<\/p>\n<p>That guy who flew that plane into the IRS Office? They ought to have that in the Olympics. Maybe that\u2019s the real life Olympics. That was a very Dog Poet event. It\u2019s unfortunate that people died, maybe\u2026 I haven\u2019t seen the karmic scoreboard yet. Might be they got bonus points and extra miles even though they weren\u2019t flying at the time. Moving right along\u2026. That kind of thing happens to people every day and they call it business and package it. Pick some up on your way home. See what I mean? It\u2019s okay when they do it according to their protocols but it\u2019s not okay to freelance.<\/p>\n<p>Authenticity and the genuine article are not easy to find but they are around and they will be heard. I\u2019m on the other wireless at the moment,. the internal internet and I can hear a whole lot of Ahrooooooooo!!!!!!! for that poor fellow. I can hear it howling out of the Dog Star and radiating through the galaxy. We heard you. It must have taken a lot to get to the point where that\u2019s all you\u2019ve got left to do. I don\u2019t know his name because I only heard about it and briefly saw a headline in the process of posting an article; some guy\u2026software technician\u2026airplane\u2026.not so silent running. I don\u2019t know what to say. I know how he feels. A lot of people know how he feels and then come all the lies. It reminds me of that incident between Jesus Christ and Pontius Pilate\u2026 \u201cWhat is truth?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I think a guy called Bobby Rydel did a song called \u201cBreaking up is Hard to Do\u201d Somebody needs to rework that song and make it, \u201cWaking up is Hard to Do.\u201d At the moment you are seeing the early tracers of events launching themselves into the blue aether of our future which is always arriving like those horses in the waves in the Origami posting. There are little clues popping up all over the place concerning our pending event horizon.<\/p>\n<p>Just riffing a bit; the sun broke out this morning and it\u2019s getting up into the fifties already. Spring is definitely on the way. I figured since I have to drive off and post the comments that I might as well put something up and well\u2026 there it is.<\/p>\n<p>End Transmission\u2026\u2026 <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:12px\">Source: http:\/\/zippittydodah.blogspot.com\/2010\/02\/olympic-soft-stool-in-cone-with.html<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reflections in a Petri Dish ponders the Winter Olympics and more<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":124,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[61],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12305","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Commentary"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12305","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/124"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12305"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12305\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12305"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12305"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12305"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
