Re: CHECK IN THREAD
I'm sorry for any trouble I've caused you, Promethean. I didn't watch the whole scene in the video. I just saw the men hugging. And that is good enough for me. I have never seen the movie "Fight Club" and I'm not really interested in seeing the rest of a movie called "fight club". I don't want to "fight" anyone, unless it's the right thing to do and fighting doesn't seem very productive to me. But maybe I'm wrong. I'll leave it to others to find out for themselves. There is no real learning without also doing.
To paraphrase Thomas Aquinas, my words have become straw. I hope others after me use it for something productive that will preserve all life on Earth instead of making it worse. But I'm no God and I'm no "superman". It's time for me to leave the forum to others.

Re: CHECK IN THREAD
Are u kidding me? U've never seen fight club?
U need to stop what you're doing at this moment and watch that movie, Gary, becuz finding your inner Tyler Durden is precisely what u need I think. Now go watch it. Go Gary. Chuck is gonna straighten u out.

Re: CHECK IN THREAD
Only leaving the forum as an active participant at this point. Thank you for the opportunity to make some moments of great improv philosophy together, along with Harbal, Henry, and everyone else on the forum. Oh, and let's not forget AJ (even if we might like to). But AJ has done his work as well. My thanks to him comes in the form of keeping my promise to him as much as I am able to without undue duress, so the "Columbian jumping spiders" don't come after me. I hope he's wrong about them being poisonous or venomous or whatever. But death is better than a fate worse than death. So I will heed his advice. Thank you, AJ.Dontaskme wrote: ↑Sun Apr 16, 2023 12:00 pmDoes that mean you are checking out?Gary Childress wrote: ↑Sat Apr 15, 2023 6:03 pm

Observe ... here's my box, it's empty of course, see?, see?. Here's an ordinary keffiyeh, black and white, just as Ms. Maryam prefers it. Right Ms. Maryam? That is your name, am I right? You're also, if you'll permit me to say, a marketing officer working in Philadelphia? Hmmm ... and I haven't even started! Hahaha. Ok, where were we? An ordinary box and a just as ordinary keffiyeh. What could happen? Nothing, right? Wrong! Watch closely, I place the keffiyeh over the box and a few magic words, abracadabra, and voila!!!! Thunderous applause!

Re: CHECK IN THREAD
I had a productive weekend. Got a lot of prep work done for a big personal project I've been planning for a while, feels good to have it ready so I can start doing the actual work! I'm feeling high from the achievement of it all so just wanted to wish everyone here a good upcoming week. Hope you all have a peaceful one if nothing else. Or an exciting one, if that's what you prefer.

It's been mostly sunny with partial cloudiness here in the Orlando, Florida area in the US. There was a boom earlier today that gave the house a thump from what I've heard is a military testing range for air ordinance a ways up north of here. Other than that things have been peaceful.

Re: CHECK IN THREAD
We're having an HOA meeting in the community tonight. I'm trying to prepare something (when the mic opens up for regular community members) to present to the community. I haven't been to an HOA meeting in a while but we have a relatively diverse community in terms of skin color. Right now we're all arguing with each other over some community issues. I hope to at least plant a seed to get everyone on the same track if I can. We used to be a nice peaceful agreeable community where we all rallied behind each other for causes and were kind and courteous toward each other. Now we have issues we can't seem to resolve. So my purpose will be to see if we can all come together under a common purpose so that we can transform "want", "need" and/or "should" do into OUGHT.

When I go to my HOA meetings and can't come up with something to say, I just read one of keter propotkin's threads to the group. Works every time.
