Every now and then there are colourful marches to encourage that very thing.

Keep walking; trip later if you must!

Now watch the righteous hate mail pile in...

You can focus on more important things instead of my linguistic stubbornness.  🤗😬😬😏

The best conversations are always internal ones: fewer misunderstandings. Which are almost never misunderstandings, but just confrontations of conflicting views held at the same time. My guess is that it has something to do with the left and right sides of the brain being able to hold, simultaneously, ideas that are in opposition, one with the other. This proves not indecision, but rather that there are very few definitives worth squat. It's the beauty of those popular Ammendments: they can be all things to all men and, perhaps, women, but certainly grist to the mills of lawyers, both or either men or women.

I washed the kitchen floor this morning, along with the floors of the bathrooms; as a result of poor timimg and forward planning (should this be in the advertisements ban slot instead?), I washed myself not into a corner, but into a time situation which precludes going out to eat, because I must let everything dry first since I have no intention of deserting the place leaving windows open, so from an innocent start cometh forth a torrent of inconveniences. I must try to remember not to act on implulse, however benign on the face of it. Fortunately, I made and froze some good soup some weeks ago. Learn from this.

Oh well, silver linings.

I read a recent theory somewhere that we are all born as Siamese twins. Fortunately, for most of us, this Siamese twin is obviously underdeveloped. I didn't think the idea to be all that far fetched. It would actually explain all the internal dialogues, as well as for example the sometimes contorted impulses we have. It could however, also be considered a really bad excuse for not controlling those impulses.

I don't know. Do with that info what you will.

btw Is Moira still around?

An interesting theory. But, I believe it's closer to the later.

Yeah, I know. What could go wrong... But it's relatively benign. Want to know the literal translation of rule-of-thumb from dutch to english?

Fist-rule.

I kid you not.

Oh yes, indeed!

Because of the heat, my eyes (the glare) and a general sense of feeling victim of global warming (one measure I apply is this: where there were, say, peaks of 36 degrees during the day, the degree numbers don't always go upwards, but they last longer at that level), I have been leaving it later into the evening before going out with the affection bribes.

The other evening I was particularly late, and the field was empty. Nonetheless, I gave two finger-whistles, and to my surprise, she came out from behind some structure in the next field, and actually broke into a trot or gallop - who knows? - up to the fence and got her reward. She does a lot more standing still in trance in summer. Saw a docu. on Woodstock a couple of nights ago; I think she might have enjoyed that - except for the music. She gets precious little grass or rain, in fact she has access to more rock than grass, and when it does rain, she rolls in the mud to cover herself in it as probable protection against ticks and flies and other predatory things with wings and stings. No fool, she.

I'm not sure about the twin thing; perhaps its nature's way of letting us cover our bets, and also to blame ourselves for some of the shit that goes down. Free will has certainly got more than a little to do with it. Which raises the question: are we all equipped to handle free will, or might it be a blessing too many?

That's an unexpected advantage of wearing 'phones out at lunch: folks can be deluded into thinking one is singing along silently, whereas in reality, a heated debate is going on.

That iPad has opened up so many possibilities!
