Truth is for the past few days I have noticed that there hasn't been
any activity aside from Orn, Rigs and myself. I thought it was due to
some holiday travel or a covert CIA operative lurking in the shadows
or the FBI trying to find the whereabouts of Bin Laden or the
Christian Coalition led by John Hagee trying to suppress the Anti-

Truth be that it is and has been, but it doesn't seem to correlate
with democracy and therefore we the people as has been demonstrated,
have been duped and cajoled into what is basically a falsehood.
Randian and Randism are terms that Ayn Rand detests and I can see that
you could have just set it as Ayn Rand socioeconomics. The rest is

Good looking out, Orn.

INABILITY TO POST AT MIND'S EYE

I have been contacted by a couple of Mind’s Eye members and told that
they couldn’t post. Since a few have let me know this, I can only
assume the problem is more widespread than that.

I have let the other moderators know of the problem and we will
research it and keep all of you advised here.

The US has always been mostly an oligarchy with some fascist
tendencies. There has always been an extreme divide between the
socioeconomic classes with a short lessoning of this for a few decades
last century. However during that era, the tax structure was the most
progressive and the US reached its zenith economically during the same

Some friends from other countries: Canada and Iran. I’ve invited them

Thanksgiving

What are you grateful for?

My list of the moment:

The arrival of one of my children next week for a few days.

Food- to cook and enjoy.

A $30. dental bill yesterday which solved a problem I thought would
cost $3,500. (I prayed to the right Tooth Fairy!)

Health, sobriety and a cheerful mood.

I didn't feel that way- I still swoon with the smell of cigars, fine
wools, clean cars, whiskey, polished silver from his paperweights, and
old ink ribbons from typewriters- all as fresh as yesterday. Mother's
nailpolish, rubber from her corsets, her favorite perfume- mine, too-
leather purses and heels, face powder, gardenias, furs, cedar wood

Yes I read a few years ago, a similar piece in New Scientist, which
told how female children find the smell of their fathers rather
rank.

Marriage could get even more complicated now that women are focusing
on careers and delaying marriage and children. There will probably be
more pre and post nups to consider, as well- this will become all
about money and security as the old myths of love and marriage drift
to the dustbin of history which is not necessarily a bad thing since

Yes- I googled it after the subject came up, I think a male chest
would look barren sans nipples- they form a nice visual triangle with
a belly button- a kind of focus- a pause in the burls of hirsute
