Greetings From Lochtin Park


Yeah, aren't I cute.  This is my family at Marie Calendar from last Christmas.  The photo from the Christmas before was taken at B P Chang's and it included the other brother we in loonie land refer to as Al.  (One alias I haven't blown yet)  There is my mother who is 86 and lives in Laguna Woods and you've seen photos taken from her place, and there are the wives of my two brothers, who are both older than they are.  You already recognize three people is you a saw a posting from several months ago.  Al lives in Woodridge in Riverside County.  The other brother lives just a couple of miles down the street but in another City and I was thinking of sending a Google street view shot of his house.  Oh yeah, there's a younger cousin in the picture I forgot about, too.  They had Newsmen on Jeopardy tonight.  Chris Matthews said the women's harassment government edit was called "the hostile work place' and I agreed with that but it was apparently wrong.  They make questions nice and easy for celebreties so they don't feel bad.  Wheel of Fortune is on now and in wolframalpha.com a math site (I bet THAT won't come out as a link either) they have a program you can use to "cheat" at Wheel of Fortune, so no I phones, I guess.  Tonight we had meat loaf and it turned out pretty good tonight, and chocolate pudding for desert. Right now I have one cigarette left and then I'll be out again.  This is like prison.  Cigarettes are a highly sought item.  As you know I'm in my early sixties and the people I live with here at this facility I'm in are approximately the same age, but I suspect as I stay here longer the average resident will be "getting younger" as the old ones die, which is an all too common occurrance around here because one thing that's rather lacking is medical care.  You gets what you pays for, to quote Popeye.  I am what they call "Volentary" meaning my own constraints are economic and not legal, if you don't count family wishes.  I don't foresee a real active role for me on Google plus.  My roommate's name is Bill and very lucky for me, he's a passive person.  I'm fortunate in this way because there are a lot of people I would not care to be boarding with on an all-the-time basis.


In for a penny, in for a pound, as Captain Piccard says.  "All the trees are just the right height".  Just what the hell did Mitt Romney mean by this.  From the sun angle you can deduce this photo was taken in the winter time.  "I love firing people"  "Corporations are people, my friend".   Mitt Romney's problem is that like a fundamentalist Christian "They never grow".  Mittens is just as awkward with people in interviews as the day he declaired for president.  At least our current President adjusted to a steep learning curve.  Personally if I were Mittens at this point I'd pick Michelle Bachman as my Vice President.  She understands women - - at least a little.  By the way did I ever tell you people that Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius was the only one of the first nineteen Emperors who wasn't gay?  Well, I just said it.  Marcus prized himself on being a "philosopher".  As to my attacks on Ayan Rand some would say 'Aren't you atheists supposed to stick together?  How come you're attacking one of your own.  In attacking her morals aren't you by implication attacking your own?"  This would be true is "Atheism" were a system or Morality and not of logical thinking.  Atheism lacks the moral stumbling blocks of Christianity.  That only makes you Free to be Whatever you Are.  If you're a sleaze bag than Atheism won't stop you from being that.



Just a short, boring word on the Special Theory of relativity now.  That's the theory that improves on Isac Newton that says don't count on two plus two making four.  You know Einstein borrowed his theory for addition of volocities, which is not just a plus sign as it is with Isac Newton.  He borrowed the theory from another dude who was trying to get the Ether Theory to "add up" Mathematically.  But that theory involved hyperbolic tangents, which means they never go higher than one.  If one were to use what I refer to as "optical trigonometry" since it involves "light' after all - - one would infer that as one reached HALF his speed potential, one would be going the speed of light meaning that HALF of one's fuel consumption or acceleration time or thrust or whatever- - would be exerted in achieving virtually an unlimited speed.  We spoke of "hyperbolic optics" which is a confusion we introduced and perhaps I should explain that.  We are conflating the word "hyperbolic" to refer to two different things.  (I love to see connections in things where perhaps there isn't any)  One use is a formula that in analytic geometry forms a hyperbola.  The other usage is an optical image that turns a circle into a hyperbola where analogus to a space orbit it "achieves excape volocity" or in this case the speed of light is a term that "stands in" for "escape volocity" in our application.  Do you get that?  Or should I say it again in pig Latin?  But here is a caviat.  The clause in the contract that may trip you up.  When I said "unlimited" that's in terms shall we say "relative to the speed of light".  That is in terms of an optical image the fastest speed you can get is - - hold on - - - negative infinity.  That kid with Aspurgers who must be turning thirteen this year - - he pegged this speed at 1.9 and I say the "agragate speed" is 1.999999  ect. But in my math - - you can even add larger numbers like 2 plus 3 equals 5 and 4 plus 3 equals seven.  Wow!  Anybody up for a good game of BONES?  How about paranoid scitzophrenia?  Where would TV dramas be without that?  Here's one 55 is a mystic number as on "BONES", which is a Devil's word according to Ned Flanders.  It's a "triangulation of 10 (be sure and count the double blank) but in Google syntax is 11 choose 2 I believe because their formula is always one higher.

God said let live and let Isaac Newton Be
All that should Be is Light 
"huh?"
