Though celibate for over ...~counts fingers~...WHOA, 18 years now (gee time sure does fly when you're havin' fun), Well now we know where all of this energy for the text walls is coming from anyway!
However, i also had a ton of energy for writing when i was married and was giving my xwife the business.
I used to think she left because i spent too much time writing, but then i gave her the business like the energiser bunny,
so maybe now i'm thinking perhaps i wasn't conducting the business correctly.
After all, we did a lot of business together but only produced two kids, so i must be doing something wrong.
I should give her a call and ask her, she still likes my wacky sense of humor.
Her partner though, i can never get him to laugh whenever i see him.

Greetings..
I also concur, but will add that one of the beautiful things i see in people is they have the power to change is they choose to.That's the thing about 'haters'.. are they truly haters, or is it their message that is hated by their accuser? Be well.. |

Her interpretation of what she read was not what she read. To me, what seems illogical is to have a discussion about whether I'm right about what I meant or if she is right about what I meant. I'm more than willing to clear up any misinterpretations,
Because you keep stating this... I just finished a lengthy post expressing how you have your intepretation, and silver has hers,
to hilight that each person has a real unique viewing position in reality that translates into a real description of what they see.
And you respond with, 'nope, her view is wrong.'
I don't see any openness to discuss the differences.
All i see is a wall with "Her interpretation of what she read was not what she read." deeply etched into it.
Of which you have every right to have and hold. I do not dispute you see your posts are like this.
I theorise you see you are not including style or emotion in your posts because of something to do with your nondualism beliefs.
And when others express they see you have an abrasive style or you include emotion in your posts,
you literally cannot see what they see because you see reality through your nondualsim belief filter.
And again, you have every right to have and to hold anything you like.
The only time an interactive problem surfaces is when another states something,
you tell them they are wrong, they can't see properly, they are the one with the filtered vision properly.
You cannot accept the possibility your conclusions might be wrong.
I am not talking about accepting you are wrong, i am talking about considering the possibility.
Others choose to continue interacting with you to see if you can at least get to that place.
Me, i have far less patience. If i judge from my interactions that a person will not or cannot move from their fixed position, i simply stop communicating.
I do not comdemn another if i think they are like this, i just realise i have a journey to take
and it's a waste of both our time for me to stop my explorative journey to converse with someone who will or cannot explore as i do. |

Heey, speaking of love.
Guess who just got mobile broadband up and running at home?
Yeah, your friendly neighbourhood Mountain-Goat.
My dawta and son in law sent me a 12 month mobile broadband deal that they no longer use, as a love gift for being a great dad, father in law and grand parent,
because i have been suffering terribly with uber slow dialup here in beautiful but backwater farm area of tassie.
So now i'm connected withan average download speed of 130k instead of 2.4k.
I can now do mad research and visit sites that contain more than just text.
8gig/mnth is more than enough.
Why have i never gotten mobile broadband before you may ask, and its a dam-n fine question too?
There is no mobile coverage in or around our house.
There is if i stand on the roof, or a few hundred metres up the road,
and on a good day, if i stand at the carport several metres up from the house, but no coverage in or around the house.
Then when they sent me the modem i noticed you can attach external antenna to it if the signal is weak.
So i figured if i can find an antenna to stick on me roof and drill a hole through the wall, i may actually get some delicious hi speed internets.
I have spent a few days researching online and off for a suitable anntenna and if the signal coverage is close enough for an antenna to work.
I was going to order one later this week, but i remembered what my dawta said a while back,
which was to try the modem anyway, even though i knew there's no coverage inside the house.
So i plugged it in and of course, the modem says, "No signal, can't connect."
So i checked the options anyway to see if i had everything set up right, and holy monkey, the dam-n thing connected.
No antenna, no signal, and it connects at a stable 5 bars and 130k speed.
I suspect alien intervention.
Possibly to make up for thier involvement of increasing hamburger prices in scotsdale, the small country town 15 mins up the road.
Don't know about you guys n gals, but aliens are all over the place down here in my neck of the woods of tassie.
Anyways, i am as happy as a Mountain-Goat for my hi-speed connection, the love of my dawta and son in law and the aliens.
If anything, a 6db rated antenna may be required, after i do some tech testing to see how stable and clean the connection is.
But right now, i choose to celebrate this experience by going to the beach on my fav dirt road.
It's an extra low tide today and i would like to find a couple of specific things to add to the package i'm sending my grandkids.
I got loads of pretty smooth pebbles and various types of shells and corals and crab shells, but i lost the hairy alien seed pods i had, so i want to find some more.
~waves~ laterz
I bought a sim card for my fone from the same provider of my internets.
I have done this to test the signal strength in and around the house 'cus it's weird my internets modem gets good signal, but fones do not.
I couldn't test with me mum's fone because her fone is a mess, it plays up all the time.
Haha, it's made by the same company that provides the mobile coverage.
My fone is fairly new and has never let me down in regards to internal glitches.
So, i plug in the new sim and oh noes, no signal at the carport, no signal near the house and no signal in the house...not one bar.
Yet my mobile modem just keeps flashing that cool blue light expressing a high signal connection to the very same network.
Another notch has been added to the theory of alien intervention.
Oh, and another bit of evidence towards alien intervention.
I found a dead Crow on the train track the other day, let alone the mutilated calf carcass a week ago,
also found mysteriously near the traintrack, where cows aren't normally seen.
Anyways, to find a dead Crow in Oz is a very rare thing.
It's the first one i have ever seen and i have seen hundreds of Crows over a wide area.
Wider than my backyard, that's how wide i'm talking about!
All of these mysterious anomalies i see on my wanderings around my neck of tassie have been photographed.
I can see the headline in the local paper.
"Man find's dead crow and calf, proof that aliens exist."
I shall be famous. I shall wear an Indiana Jones hat, and i shall smoke a pipe while at my book signings.
And i shall nod my head a lot, and look thoughtfully up to the left or right when someone asks me an intriguing or stupid question.
Perhaps a beard will make me look more intelligent too.
One with a splattering of grey in it, to denote i am a wise old soul.
And every now and then, while conversing wth people, i will respond to whatever they are saying while looking at them seriously
and declare loudly while pointing my pipe at them, "THAT LOOKS LIKE AN EXAGGERATION!"
~howls of laughter~ Yeah, imma having another fun tiems day.

Ooh, and speaking of fun tiems.
Inspired by reefs efforts to post pics.

That's me on the right, losing my religion.EDIT: spelling

My experiences are that a jolly good dose of honest courageous open self examination will enable one to find correct answers to many of life's questions.
Just some people are too secured to things in order to free themselves up to go have a look. |

[ You are too funny, M-G~* Love it Not only will you have the aliens checking you out, but the gov 8-)will be shadowing you 'cause you're an intelligent, wise soul who knows too much!
I will find out when they finally reveal themselves.
I am, however, aware of the deceitfulness that is prevalent in government.
And speaking of the gov keeping an eye on me.
I have for the second time reported my concerns regarding the second sewerage spill at the beach.
Whenever i talk to the company running the sewerage and water works, i get the run around.
The usual spiel of denial and unaccountability, "Everything is okay, return to your homes citizens" type rantings.
It's quite a hoot to hear people speak like this.
But i just politiely inform them of the errors in their reasoning that they do not have 100% confidence everything is alright.
'Cus if they were convinced everything was alright, they would not put up a warning sign to not go into the water.
Anyways, this time i wanted to talk to the local Environment Officer in charge of this area.
So this time i was going to speak to the local council and not just the people who run the sewerage and water works.
I was informed he only comes to work on two days a week that were not the day i rang.
So i said , no worries, i will chat with him when he gets in.
Well, i don't have mobile service at home, but two people were trying to reach me all afternoon.
One was a chick from the S & W company and the other was my friendly neighbourhood environmental officer,
whom the council just informed me was not available today.
My spider sense were tingling that they were both trying to suppress any problems i may see, to shut me up before i start talking to others.
And when i did ring them back the next day, sure enough, all they talked about was, "Nothing to see here folks, go about your business, we have it all under control."
I found it suspicious that they would seek me out when i expressed i was not in a panic about the spillage.
So, after some searching on ebay, i have come across a hand held digital microscope with 600 magnification that easily can view microscopic bacteria etc.
It can record still photos and HD movies at 720 resolution.
So next time there's a spillage, i am going to take and record samples and send samples off to a lab if i can afford it.
'Cus, something smells fishy and when i see little kids playing in water than can potentially kill them,
i choose to verify for myself that the water is safe and not simply believe these people just because they say it is.
It's the second time i have done something politial in my whole life.
Who woulda thunk i would change to this in such an idyllic and natural setting as tassie.

Greetings.. Yeah, I spose it does. I don't really know what it means to put myself in "an unreproachable position". It obviously doesn't mean I can't be reproached by others, cuz that happens daily. I think it means I don't accept the projections of others. That's true 'nuff. I enjoy helping others, and I also like fixing things and figuring out how things work. It's a challenge and I find it satisfying in various ways. That focus obviously also gets played out here on the forum and it's here for all to see. The fact that you refer to this dynamic as projection of hurt issues and role playing suggests to me that you see this dynamic as unconscious, problematic and in need of fixing. I, OTOH, see no such problem. When others point out to me their own projections and patronizingly suggest I might want to have a look at that, then yes, it looks a bit ludicrous. And, when others bring their own version of this practice, there is conflict.. neither willing to engage the other openly and honestly, without resort to judgement and manipulation.. Be well.. So you've found one guy on the internet you seemingly can't openly communicate with effectively. Why not just move on? |

And it makes no sense to you that there may not be any truth in it, and so you can call it speculation and possibility, but you know it to be fact and not debatable at all. It's just a pretense of openness to debate, a bit like our friend Tzu. No. Hang on. I am in a position which enables me to acknowledge that I might be purely speculating. One of the benefits of not 'being conscious' is that I dont start from the assumption that what I see is necessarily true. It is my opinion that there is something in what I said, I can't help my feeling about that, but its not like I've never been wrong. Okay, that sounds like a good place to end it. |

The problem you quoted me saying applies to you as well. Top has a very gentle and open approach generally, and yet even you have demonized him and made him wrong for your misperception that he is making others wrong.
Looks to me like a bit of emotional over dramatization there.
Pray tell what do you call your posts to or of silver when you accuse her of blackmailing?
I would like to see your classification system in comparison to the posts i write to topology.
How do you rate your posts of and to silver when you accuse her of many things.
And you are allowed to have any opinion you like.
My experiences reveal a difference of approach creates a different response.Well at least this time you have not stated that all of the factors are in the perciever of the message.
And so i would like to hear what you think are the factors of the sender of the message that contributes to interaction problems.I am constantly amused that you are so sure of what i have experienced in interactions, of which you know nothing about...unless you have been observing me for the past 20 years, of which i seriously doubt you have.
If you want to think my successes are due to the dynamics of the receiver of your message, by all means enigma, think whatever you want, it's a free concert.
I know it's due to the combination of me and the other. And by 'know', i mean i was there, i experienced it, i see the difference when i interact differently.
If that has not been your experiences, then that has not been your experiences.
But when you try to tell me what i experienced is not what i experienced, when i was there and you weren't, i simply joyfully facepalm~.
