You will note I said "unknown". Meaning - - I honestly up till lately didn't have any reason to suspect it was There. However - - - I had this new theory
based on a take-off from a couple of weeks ago called the “Tulip” model of
creation. That is- - the idea that Time
even now is not entirely “straight line”, which translates to meaning Cause and
Effect are not entirely responsible for our Destinies but there remains a
slight “God Factor’ caused by the fact we are still dealing with a hyperbola,
that never goes entirely straight, regardless of what it looks like. And one thing about hyperbolas is that the
“bend” in the hyperbola is entirely where you calibrate the graph. I told Dr. Levy this morning that there IS no
“solar solistis” because the sun doesn’t stop moving one direction and then
“take a rest” but it is moving at a constant rate of speed. Where the “tulip” idea comes in is that Cause
is seen as broadness or latitudinal variance to a Cause and Effect Axis we know
better as “Time”. If this theory is
valid not only CAN there be parallel universes, there MUST be parrellel
Universes. What this whole theory does
however is reduce God Himself to that of a non living powerful but in the end
in-animate Force. Of course in India
their theology lends itself to the Magnate theory. This is where you see the iron filings form a
“magnetic field” and Time as we know it travels along the iron filing
lines. The problem here is that the
filings were “always there” but merely “shaped” by magnetism and mutual
attraction into flux lines. One can thus
argue that “Events” were “Out There” but just not “organized into a time
perception time-frame. Some may say “Why
venture into these theories at all.
Don’t they represent Religion- - a thing you claim to disdain?” No.
They are metaphysical but not religions.
Something only becomes a Religion when it’s taken as divine revelation
and “received on Faith” as infallible.
It’s kind of funny that they use this highly convienient phrase of “The
Fullness of Time” to talk about Christianity.
They can wag their finger at the Jews and say they had an “Incomplete
revelation of who God was”. But of
course- - they pre empted any changes when they declared that God in the flesh
had come- - because they believed this cut off the possibility of any other
theologian ever coming up with anything new.
And that is pathetic, as well as unscientific. (Selah)
Today according to
Chris Carter is “random acts of kindness day”.
Around here we specialize in “random bits of misinformation” day. But I’d like to get really down to earth for
a moment and discuss this whole morass with the Republican tea baggers in
congress. John Mc Cain was on a Meet the
Press today and he considers Chuck Hagal a “good friend’ while all the while
stabbing him in the back”. However Mc
Cain defended Hagal against the onslaught of Ted Cruise who was newly elected
for the Texas Senate because he “primaried” a guy from the right, and got away
with it, knowing how far right the people of Texas have become. I can remember when Texas used to have
liberals in it, because after all they elected Anne Richards for governor and
she was very popular. But no more. Chris Matthews today and on his show stated
that Ted Cruise has exhibited classic Joseph Mc Carthy behavior, which he
has. And of course Joseph Mc Carthy was
made a fool of by Edmond R Murrow on his program, and was eventually booted out
of the Senate by his own colligues.
Cruise should take a lesson from history. But nobody today even knows recent
history. Because one of these whiz kids
on Jeopardy was unable to answer which right wing third party candidate carried
southern states in the 1968 election, left there be any readers out there who
actually didn’t know that one. But I
wanted to talk about the whole vast change in mental mind set of the American
people today as opposed to twenty years ago.
Pete Richards was telling me from looking at old VHS video tapes that
back then you saw a lot of Wrigley’s chewing gum ads- - and other innocuous topics,
whereas today we have all of these DRUG adds for every kind of drug imaginable-
- covering topics they would never have broached on the public air waves twenty
years ago from clinical depression to impotency to prostate problems to incontinence. I’ve noticed that myself. Twenty years ago was the last winter where I
did NOT have an alcohol problem, and as such I guess I kind of miss that
period. But TV shows are different
now. Today there is an endless stream of
funerals for cops- - and coffins and military ceremonies and honoring our
fallen vets. And our shows are all about
torture a la Jack Bower, and conspiracies and terrorists and foreign powers
done in these stereotypical fake accents, that are from one of those “bad
places” either Central Africa or the Islamic world, or Slavic Eastern
Europe. It’s always some acceptable “Them” - - “Over There” out there who is responsible
for all of our problems. Nobody
questions anybody’s patriotism - - or rather the utter necessity of total
allegence to whatever propaganda the pentagon chooses to feed us. Whatever it is the TV production studios eat
it up. So now half the movies on the top
ten are War Movies. But back twenty
years ago - - we were much more interested in psychic awareness and psychic
phenomina and is there a way to quantify it and harness it? And back then the TV shows had a rather
different approach. They were more
interested in the extra terriestrial - - a la Next Generation and Deep Space
Nine and Voyager- - or stuff like “The X Files” with its psychic implications
or mind trip shows like “Sliders” or “The Loner” that UPN series. Whatever happened to UPN anyhow? You had your regular psychics like Sylvia
Brown and you had a whole lot more of the Wayne Dyre types out there- -
believing that the problems of the human race could be mastered by adopting a
positive outlook. No more. Today the tea party is the party of “No” like
we said on our previous posting. Back in
the old days when Bush was in power, no Democratic Response to a State of the
Union speech- - would adopt such a wholesale negativeist rejection
response. It would be rather - - “Well,
the President raised some good points- - but I believe our party has a better
plan to implement those overall goals”.
But of course today the “goals’ of the Tea Party are to destroy America
as we know it. As Chris Matthews said on
his show yesterday, “The more popular the President gets in the polls, the more
extreme and unreasonable and intransigent the tea party right become”. They are as they were “Doubling down” on
their errors – or “Raising the Price of Poker” as Dr. Phil says, though his
statement is usually in regards to disciplining little kids. In other words- - - and they tried this last
fall and failed. But they believed that
if they could be outlandish enough and violate as many conventions of human decency
as they possibly could - - cheat as much as they can get away with and in
general just to “Throw as big a Tantrum as possible” that in the end that the
other side would “break its resolve’ and they’d get their way, never to have to
do battle on this issue again, but the next time the parent would say “Yes”
immediately. So the tea party- - would
have won a great victory with Romney had he won because then instead of being
the Congress of “No” they would be the congress of “Yes, Mr. President- - with
Pleasure’ to any hair brained scheme that the president could come up
with. Well OK that’s my opinion on that.
OK it’s twelve minutes
to high noon on a warm and sunny February 17, 2013 and on this date in 1967
there was a Beatle single out. Let me
say something about the weather that February.
We got “Buckets of Rain” of an almost marathon nature at time. Many is the time I’d be walking home from
school wading through flood water and hoping to get a ride. But the sunny days were really sunny with
brilliant blue skies and pristine fresh air.
I want to put out a posting today but first I’ve got a “Whole Lot of
Typing to Do” to paraphrase Elvis. Of
course today on Breakfast with the Beatles it was “something different”
day. Of course “Seventeen” kicks off our
eight CD box set marathon, each of which disk contains seventeen tracks. “Pink” was the one who picked out the version
of “Across the Universe’ in that set, which is at varience with my pick, and
Breakfast with the Beatles played yet another version of “Universe”. They just got done playing that KLOS
exclusive version of “Birthday” where the band comes to a complete halt. “Pink” contacted me today to say that the
version playing on KLOS was the version he personally wanted the Beatles to put
out. So in the category of “THAT wasn’t
my idea- - he claims that Paul and George Martin conspired to tinker with the
song a little more with all the orchesteral stuff. I always thought that’s what made the song
brilliant. Chris Cartrage read my mind
with the “Who Lot of Love” version of “Helter Skelter”. I’d definitely place that in my top five of
all time mash-up favorites. They did “Rock
Show’ and I’d heard that rather extended ending stark rock version of “Rock
Show” that was in definite need of a little editing down. Also it was Burt’s idea to omit “Two of Us”
from that RED boxed set saying it contained a lyric karmically in error about “You
and me have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead”. He says that Paul just made “the classic
hyperbolic projection model error”. We
talked about that earlier here. Then we
had the vibraphone version of “I’m Only Sleeping’ which is a KLOS exclusive and
isn’t half bad. Maybe they should have
put it out as a single sometime. Of
course I personally don’t see why the Beatles didn’t put OUT the version with
the guitar overdubs on “I’m So Tired”.
There are two songs that appear to have been completely unaltered, which
are “Lucy in the Sky” and “Dear Prudence’.
Actually what I identify with is the “Radio version” of “Lucy in the Sky”,
where one instrument is potted far down in the mix so that you can barely hear
it at all, and those of you in the Salt business know what I’m talking
about. (Mal Evans gave me that
line) After “Seventeen” played- - I had
just cranked up the volume for that song after the fill in for Nora had gotten
through dusting everything (for incrimidating finger prints) In terms of that ‘Who’s not playing that
Beatle song” I would have picked Dave Baby Cortez. I was searching my memories for some musician
who likes to whip out their organ in public and exhibit their talents. But it turned out to be Billy Preston, which
I never would have guessed. I wanted to
talk about karmic memories. As I told
you once before there was one early May of 1964 live at the BBC tape they “just
let roll” one day and I KNEW before I ever heard the song that “I Forgot to
Remember to Forget” was coming up. I
wouldn’t have known that unless I was THERE and remembered actually DOING those
performances. I think we have the same
thing with “What You’re Doing”. There is
another song I’ve always suspected was “prematurely ended” kind of like
Bluebird, even before I had knowledge that any longer version of the track
existed and that is “She’s A Woman”.
This is another of those Mc Cartney inspired jams. It’s one of the four “Exclusives” that Jim
Ladd played on his radio program from June of 1992, which is on the same tape
roll as the remark about Howard Stern asking Gordon Liddy if he packet heat”
and adds “and I don’t mean a penis” and the answer was “No”. They’re playing “Another one Bites the Dust”
which is of course “It’s Fun to Smoke Marijuana” thank you Paul Crouch for that
one. Supposedly this one was supposed to
be a Western or some sort but then they got the idea of speeding the thing way
up.
I’m going to have to
still omit a lot of stuff here.
Sometimes if you’re going to get into this ETI stuff - - it’s best to
pick out some fresh event. Of course Mal
Evans has always hated the phrase E T I stuff, for extra terriestrial
intelligence - - Blue Oyster Cult wrote a song about it, with all the “Men in
Black” allusions with “You Didn’t See Anything’ or worse yet, going ahead and
doing a brain memory wipe, however that is achieved. I was sitting at breakfast this morning,
which seems to be where I get my best inspiration these days. Jim Morrison disagrees with Mal Evans on this
whole Christopher Dorner issue. Mal
Evans won’t touch the topic with a ten foot poll saying that the guy is a flake
and not to be employed in any kind of constructive example for our side to
use. Jim Morrison came to me last
Tuesday afternoon, I guess, and had many profound insights- or at least things
I hadn’t yet thought of- - which are of concern about this case and why we
shouldn’t just sweep the whole thing of Police treatment of Minorities- - and
even young Whites too- - - don’t sweep it under the rug. But Morrison told me that “he had heard about
this whole ZAC Tarot Card rock group contraversey”. I subsequently learned that Stewart had
sought him out for advice- - not even being sure whether it was appropriate. As you know - - Jim Morrison has never bought
into the “Howard myth” either. But he
felt that this Howard Myth was so pervasive on ZAC songs you couldn’t get
around it. Besides Bob Seeger and Bruce
Springsteen, you have Queen, and the Eagles, and even one David Bowie song “Panic
in Detroit” and Bob Dylan. There are at
least three songs on the Highway 61 album that make reference to the Howard
myth. The problem Stewart complains is
that “We need another Bela Tagis B group.
Right now we only have Alice Cooper, Judas Priest, and Cheap Trick, and
we used to have Ted Nugent, but we lost him.
And Steely Day is a “B” group. And
personally I’d like to replace the current Tower Card with Steely Dan” Stewart is another person who has never
bought into the Howard myth- - and the topic has never come up in our
discussion in the past twenty-odd years.
But Jim Morrison came up with the best solution that looks like it’s
going to be adopted and that is to “Just put things back the way they were”. Just have Ted Nugent back at number thirteen,
the “High Priestess” Card. Morrison
said, “I don’t want to feel like I’m in the middle of something, and the whole
thing just doesn’t seem to be working out the way Mal Evans thought, whatever
that was”. So it looks like that’s what
we’re going to do. OK I’m done with
that subject so I’ll quit now.
