Men judge by the complexion of the sky
The state and inclination of the day.
- William Shakespeare

Much may be lost
falling by the wayside
without passing the test of time
a fact not given merely in isolation
yet! there's something, I am sure
-there being two gems remaining-
of one it is you
within a heart created for two
to combine and entwine embodies
a beautiful essence of oneness
thus life becomes liveable
as love belays the unbridgeable.

* VIRUS ALERT *

If you receive an email entitled "Badtimes" delete it immediately. Do not open it! It will not only erase everything on your hard drive, but it will also delete anything on disks within 20 feet of your computer.

It demagnetises the stripes on ALL of your credit cards.

It reprograms your ATM access code, screws up the tracking on your VCR and uses subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD's you attempt to play.

It will re-calibrate your refrigerator's coolness settings so all your ice cream melts and your milk curdles.

It will program your phone autodial to call only your mother-in-law's number.

This virus will mix antifreeze into your fish tank.

It will drink all your beer.

It will leave dirty socks on the coffee table when you are expecting company.

Its radioactive emissions will cause your toe jam and bellybutton fuzz (be honest, you have some) to migrate behind your ears.

It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine, all while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing their hotel rendezvous to your Visa card.

It will cause you to run with scissors and throw things in a way that is only fun until someone loses an eye.

It will give you Dutch Elm Disease and Tinea.

It will rewrite your backup files, changing all your active verbs to passive tense and incorporating undetectable misspellings which grossly change theinterpretations of key sentences.

If the "Badtimes" message is opened in a Windows95 environment, it will leave the toilet seat up and leave your hair dryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub.

It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattresses and pillows, but it will also refill your skim milk with whole milk.

It will replace all your luncheon meat with Spam.

It will molecularly rearrange your cologne or perfume, causing it to smell like dill pickles.

It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve.

These are just a few signs of infection...

Our life
blood
heritage
education
taught value in belief
a faith or a care
in a world
made for us
then why,
does it take a lifetime
upon this world
to disbelieve
and misunderstand
all we can't begin to understand?

We are not separate from spirit.
We are in it
-- Plotinus

"Don't be fooled by the calendar. There are only as many days
in the year as we make use of. One man gets only a week's value out of a
year while another man gets a full year's value out of the week."
