  6. A quotation from L'Engle

    So let us look for beauty and grace, for love and friendship, for that which is creative and birth-giving and soul-stretching. Let us dare to laugh at ourselves, healthy, affirmative laughter. Only when we take ourselves lightly can we take ourselves seriously, so that we are given the courage to say, “Yes! I dare disturb the universe.”

    Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
    Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

  10. I have come up with a great little recipe I want to make when I have the money to buy some food to make it;

    You start with 1lb elbow macaroni boiled to perfection with 1Tb of Pink Himalayan Salt as the water boils, pour in the elbows, cook for 6mins, they should be firm not crunchy and definitely not soft, then quickly rinse in cold water to stop the cooking, set in fridge for an hour or so to get cold, then dice up 1 can of Spam, add 1 can of Rotel 1 drained of the liquid can of chunked pineapple drained of the liquid, add enough mayo or miracle whip to coat it all, add 1 bag of coleslaw mix and 1 cup of raisins, then put back in the fridge and let it cool and the flavors mingle for a few hours, your going to enjoy this on a hot afternoon, it will be like a cool party for your mouth;

    Then with 16oz's of pure moonshine, add 1 tangerine cut up 1 lime cut up 1 cup of sugar 1 half gallon of orange juice put all in the blender and blend very well, strain over a 1 gallon pitcher 3/4 full of ice and serve with a sprig of mint, and for desert as if you needed it, dice up 1 watermelon and 1 cantaloupe very quickly but evenly toast all of the fruit with a hot torch, drizzle generously with fresh local honey and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream;

    This little meal will have you mouth dancing and on a hot summer evening it will taste amazing;

    You can encourage my continued useless #creativity and expression of self, #commentary, random thoughts, and #culinary ideas, and by doing so your helping to feed, house and clothe a #disabled man living in #poverty, $5-10-15 It All Helps, via #cashapp at $woctxphotog or via #paypal at paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=…

  11. Life Lesson


    Hello

    If this is your first visit, welcome to Musings. Today I am musing about memories. If you have been here before, welcome back. Over time we are going to talk about many things: the past, the present, perhaps the future, travel,

    Big Brother

    Peter about age 28

    For some reason I have found myself thinking of Pete, my older brother. I don’t know why. He died in 2014.

    Growing up, I idolized him. I thought he was great.

    To him I think I was sort of an irritant. He was nearly seven when I was born, ending his only-child-center-of-attention position. He had to share.

    I don’t remember much until I was about five. It must have been a tumultuous time as my father and mother separated twice ending in divorce. My mother remarried and we moved to a small town, Kingman, Arizona, where my half-sister and half-brother were born.

    Here are pictures of my older bother and me about that time.

    Aren’t I cute? My grandmother crocheted the toy for me. I called it “Brownie”.

    Pete came into his own. There were two newspaper routes in town. Pete had both. As a result, he had more spending money than my parents.

    He got into photography and had a dark room at the house. I remember him taking time exposures at night of lightning and, later, watching the image emerge in the chemical bath.

    He had traps he set in the desert Among his successes, he caught a skunk which sprayed him and the dog. Mom wouldn’t let him in the house until he took off all his clothes.

    He built a Soapbox Derby car. The neighborhood kids were envious and he let them ride it down hill. He let me do that once.

    He had four- ten (4.10) shotgun and became a good shot., even winning a turkey at a turkey shoot.

    I was proud he was my brother.

    One of his favorite pursuits was making model airplanes, the kind that came in a kit of balsa wood which, once assembled, was covered with thin paper to form the skin of the plane. Here is a modern version.

    He made many of these. They were powered by a rubber band connected to the propellor. Wind that baby up and away would fly your plane.

    His biggest had a six foot wingspan. It crashed and damaged the propellor so he made it into a glider by inserting a rock into the nose and launching it into the wind. An up-current caught it and took it up and away. Several weeks later, while out checking on his traps, he came across it broken, hanging in a tree . . . six miles from where he threw it.

    All this was magic to me and I wanted to make a plane.

    I pestered and pestered.

    Finally, my mother told him to help me make a model.

    Not too happy about it, he helped me assemble the wings and fuselage . It took time. There were so many pieces that needed glued and assembled. The glue had to cure. takes time. The body had to be assembled and glued — more time. Then the wings — more time.

    So, we worked on this after school for several days. He probably did most of the actual assembly. I no longer remember.

    Putting the paper on the model was the most vexing as I recall. It had to be done carefully with no tears or creases.

    Finally, one night it was done and it was a beauty, a Piper Cub. I was thrilled.

    The next day I took it out in the yard. Across the street I saw a girl I knew at school.

    I shouted, “Hey wanna see my plane?” as I ran toward her.

    My foot caught on a wire hidden in the tall grass, tripping me. I fell on the plane, smashing it.

    There must be a life lesson here. I’m just not certain what it is.

  17. Oh, the tragedy! 😱 Someone is shocked that #AI regurgitates the same useless nonsense in different places, and is astonished when humans can't be bothered to offer anything better. What a revelation! 🎉 Clearly, the world is ending because people aren't solving complex problems with intelligent #conversations but with #ChatGPT screenshots. 🤦‍♂️

  18. Made me look, and made me read the ad fully - an ad written from the perspective of a donut! "it is with great humility that I pass the torch to", "Though far less delicious", "This creates something I never could", "It’s the future of talent intelligence – and humbly, I don’t see myself in it.", and "To all The Wall Street Journal readers who kept me employed over the years, thank you. You deserve the best, and now you’ve got it"!

    Good job!

  23. "Creativity is central in tantric Buddhism. However, the goal is not “self-expression.” (Selves are not particularly interesting.) Nor is it to make something new just because it’s new. Nor is it about connecting with the Absolute Infinite.

    Creativity means allowing the spaciousness of specifics to express themselves. It means being the space in which latent meanings coalesce into visible forms."
