So, here comes another week. Last week pretty much sucked. Well, it sucked at the beginning, but got better toward the end. Hopefully this week will just be a good week. Or at least not a really shitty week. Sometimes, you just gotta lower your expectations (which is how my wife wound up with me). I hope your week starts well, and ends better.
I missed the first hour and half of the Bill Press Show ….. 🙁

ah, another morning in paradise
Morning / Evening :yingyang:
Good morning. This is spring break week for me and all the kiddies in NYC, No matter what this is a better week than most.
Happy Spring Break! We have Tomb Sweeping Day this Thursday and a four day weekend.
You guys have the coolest holidays over there, KK.
KingKong, … Extremely Cool 8)
We folk take the Besom and Clean at Spring and/or on this Full Moon. But cleaning Graves …what about Meow or Rats and … teehee
I need to reseed the Forget Me Not flowers over their Graves.
A.I. then V. {The Piano (sound familiar)} The Promise …(loop)Michael Nyman
Yeah. many of them are a lot of fun. :yippee: For Tomb Sweeping, 20 years after the death of a family member, the family gathers and washes the bones and reinters them. Either cool or icky, depending on your view.
Druid- Forget-me-nots are those small blue/purple flowers? My grandmother used to sow those in the forest where she lived. Thank you for the memory. 😉
Hi jason, just passing though. :fire:
Sam said he’d talk to Bill next week. Though he kinda hesitated.
Morning all, well so far it doesn’t sound like Sam’s last week.
Washes the bones, huh? Gee, I’d certainly hope that all the icky stuff was gone. They exhumed Abraham Lincoln and had a look at him in 1901, and he was apparently completely recognizable.
I don’t think I’d care to see that, in the case of my parents.
EMI, Apple partner on DRM-free premium music
The higher-quality, DRM-free music, which can be played on any computer and any digital-audio player, will not replace the copy-protected downloads on iTunes. Rather, it will complement the standard music for download through iTunes and will be sold at a premium: $1.29 per song instead of Apple’s standard 99 cents.
Thank you pj for the real example. I’m with you, however.
Seeing an ancestor in the stages of decomposition, is not something I’d ever look forward to. Cremation, sky burial, permanent burial, etc., are more my syle.
King Kong, are people buried in such a way that they become skeletons very quickly?
The biggest change was that the eyebrows had vanished.
I wonder if they fixed that like Uncle Leo so he now will look angry for all eternity.
I want a natural burial, no artificial preservatives or cement vaults. Just sew me up into a nice organic biodegradable shroud, and drop me in a hole in the woods someplace. Get the hole deep enough so the critters don’t scatter me around. I don’t want to be cremated. Ashes to ashes and all, but I see no reason to be in a hurry about it. I’d just as soon rot, and feed the worms for a bit.
King Kong, Yes, they are, what a grand memory of yours to share. My grandmother would also sow them — sometimes “broadcasting”. It was from her where I learned of the flower — how charming. And also, thank you dear sir for the memories, both of your grandmother and my grandmother. :love: This vision will be tweeked and but into a picture [one year] or on the page. awwww Enchanting. Cheers . A charming “haunting” ritual … and now Tomb Sweep Day :love: besides The Spring Cleanning — to clear out the old “cobwebs” and make way for the New.
A.I. then V. …. {The Piano (sound familiar)} The Promise …(loop)Michael Nyman
I want a natural burial, no artificial preservatives or cement vaults.
Except that the laws in almost all states are written so that you have to buried in the concrete vault, the casket etc. Personally I think it’s a real racket. I know in Korea, and maybe Kong can confirm this, your family would bury you themselves, no embalming, no concrete liners, a simple wood box and a hole in the ground.
pjsauter :nod: 8) …yea to feed all the crawlies :
The Worms Crawl In, The Worms Call Out, …etc
But King Kong, You are the first I heard mention “sky burial”. That is how I rested Cats, Dogs, and Wolves in mountains. On the larger ones it was an honour to see even vultures coming, and Ravens, and more … I am not sure how I want death … since can’t do Sky [Air},but Cremation {Fire},{Water} Buriel. and Buried {Earth} — Then I Officiate at some = Spirit = thus one of many meanings to the Secret of the :pent: … Water {near by} or fake Earth way? Hubby wants to be burned but I want many to “feed” off me.
A.I. then V. …{The Piano (sound familiar)} The Promise …(loop)Michael Nyman
Actually, from what I understand, the vault is the requirement of the cemetery, not of the government. The idea being that, as the contents decompose, the ground collapses, making it unsafe for people walking due to uneven ground (read: makes it hard to mow the lawn). There are places where natural burials are allowed, and though they are a bit scarce, I’m hoping they’ll become more prevalent as people wise up.
This is the one that’s closest to me.
I wanted one on our land — but not enough land. I was thinking Cremation and putting around trees and put plaques on trees, but then moved. “Now I am In Town Now” (said as I snap in a Z ).
A.I. then V. {The Piano (sound familiar)} The Promise …(loop)Michael Nyman
I have ten acres of undeveloped woods, and will have to see what the rules are about having a private burial area.
Before I am Dead and gone I hope to get at least as much as to what I/We had … but I think it would be charming … then folks can go some on a wonderful hike to visit site, but for others it just would be a tad bit off my property road. But strange laws. It sounds in California I would have to have all Cremated — which was okay cool 8) —
I just could not “deal” alone with the concept and the info — since I was looking in that direction and not where another was for the most part. — I like this. :rofl2: Shame on me I just think this type of talk is honourable.
Del Monte Foods has confirmed that the melamine-tainted wheat gluten used in several of its recalled pet food products was supplied as a “food grade†additive, raising the likelihood that contaminated wheat gluten might have entered the human food supply.
“Yes, it is food grade,†Del Monte spokesperson Melissa Murphy-Brown wrote in reply to an e-mail query. Del Monte issued a voluntary recall Saturday for several products under the Gravy Train, Jerky Treats, Pounce, Ol’ Roy, Dollar General and Happy Trails brands.

Maybe Ill make a cemetary out back here….I sorta prefer to be ashes i an urn on the mantle, like Coco….
In my case, I’ll probably have to go out and dig a hole ahead of time, and when I start feelin’ poorly, go and jump in. Haven’t worked out how to backfill it just yet. Some kind of board and string device, tied to my wrist (the ultimate dead-man’s switch).
However, in Germany where they still teach science they published an article about the toxic nature of Monsantos Triple Hybrid GM corn and it’s effect on bees in ’05. Why won’t the media here mention that GM corn is the likely cause of the bees disapearing? Could it be that Monsanto is a massive multinational corp with a market capitalization of 30 billion dollars?? Of course insects are seen as pests by most people. Most people who passed Earth Science class in highschool understand that every part of the food chain is important and some, but not most, understand that bees perform a task that vital to our survival.

I hate to waste the energy required to cremate me. And then they grind up the big chunks. Besides, nobody would put me on a shelf. I’d be left for the street sweeper.
They don’t mention that our preznit lied us into war, has been incompetent and/or criminal in everything he’s done, and is destroying our entire system of government, and they’re gonna worry about bees? GM food is as far off the radar as those four planes apparently were on 11-Sept.
Hi :yippee: re 12 Jason long time no talk…….Cheers, you are missed.
Be Well Always as to all, in the night of the FUTURE as it is day (PRESENT) here 😉 .
Sue P EEK 😮 re 29
A.I. then V.
Hey, I wonder if I can add these to the MS Store? When I saw them bury Nate on Six Feet Under, I said two things to my wife:
1) That’s what I want when my time comes
2) Fer chrissakes, get enough people so you aren’t dropping me all over the place (even if you have to hire somebody).
I wish there was a Sammy cam, so we could hear them record the promo of death (if that’s what it is). Perhaps Friday’s “slip” was something more than meets the eye? An April Fools joke? Doesn’t seem likely to me. A misunderstanding? A negotiating tactic? Something to get those cards, letters, and phone calls rolling in? I don’t know, that all seems like a stretch to me. What about that “anonymous” post over the weekend? Was it legit? Somebody fucking around? Has Sam been told to shut up or he’ll be frog marched out of the building? So many questions.
I guess we won’t know for sure until we know for sure, at which point we can be sure of what we know for sure, but only if what is know for sure can be known for sure, since anything that can’t be known for sure, we’ll never know for sure.
Melina, re 30 , :nod: if the land is yours for generations, then that is wonderful. I heard many do that — in ol’ days they had crypts, on their land. Where many Cemetaries are they now have Crementorium Crypts. Then you can go and “talk” to the Dead — to help the living. Awwwww sigh. Charming. Good Luck with your thoughts of different directions.

pj, If it was a 4/1 joke, I think they would have led the show with it. My realplayer stream did something weird and glitched right when Bill Scher came on and started the show from the beginning so I missed how he said goodbye to him which I thought might give away something. The person anonymous was addressing just posted this

You’d think that Sam would acknowledge the rumors and say something. Put a lot of us out of
the misery of waiting. But he DID
sat to Bill Scher “..talk to you
next week”.
April 2, 2007 11:33 AM
It wasn’t an April Fools joke, but I am thinking alot changed over the weekend.
April 2, 2007 11:38 AM
I am guessing he is trying to keep it down low so he won’t be burning any bridges for the time being. I do think he may say something at the end today about the rest of the week so I am hanging around for a little longer.
(edit) Oh, well, nothing is revealed for now…
Nothing but he’ll be off for Passover, and back Thursday. If it was a 4/1 “joke,” it would have needed to be “funny,” which it wasn’t. I mean, something like, on-air saying he didn’t know if he’d be back on Monday, and then opening the show today with Marc the Shark or something. I don’t see any way it was a “prank.” And I can’t really think of anything else it could be, other than what it seemed to be.
PJ, yes :nod: RATS.

I will make sure I listen to Sam , I think on KPOJ Portand,to hear Marc the or Whatever — cuz I missed his show sniff.
When he said goodbye to Bill Scher, he said “we’ll talk to you next…week.” For whatever that’s worth. Could be Sunday, as far as that goes.
Where AAR is concerned, assume the worst.
OK, if Hartmann doesn’t cut out the Ayn Rand shit, I am going to scream.
They are playing Hightower on my stream. They also did during Seder. Weird. I thought he was a regular Riley feature.
I suggest all of you ‘death’ freaks get out your Elvis Costello “Spike” records and cue up “God’s Comic” and “Tramp the Dirt Down”.
And speaking of death, congratulations to the Undertaker for winning his first World Heavyweight Championship yesterday at WWE’s Wrestlemania XXIII. :reaper: Unfotunately Trump was spared a shearing.

Judith Giuliani once demonstrated surgical products for a controversial medical-supply company that used dogs – which were later killed – in operations whose only purpose was to sell equipment to doctors, The Post has learned.

:reaper: i was watching tv and bush just banned gun ownership by ANYBODY
Yeah, there was a shooting this morning at the UW. Very tragic.
Druid, I know there was a huge outcry when the company’s cruelty was reported. I have not heard about it since and don’t know whether they continue to use dogs in these demos. If you find out let us know.
The fact that Giuliani’s wife was involved doesn’t surprise me. Judith Nathan Giuliani has demonstrated many times that she is at the very least oblivious to other peoples’ suffering.
Forgive me for repeating this. When Giuliani decided to leave his wife, Donna, for Judith, he first tried to have Donna kicked out of the Mayor’s residence. When the court said, “No” he then tried to force her to allow him to bring Judith into the residence. He reasoned, fine lawyer that he is, that it was public property. The court reasoned that he had young children who would be adversely affected by Ol’ Rudy parading around their house with his newest squeeze.
The Giulianis are cruel people. He is Bush, on steroids. She doesn’t have the decency or brains to tell him to stop, just like George and Laura.

Detainee’s plea deal angers some legal experts
GUANTANAMO BAY, CUBA — The first war-crimes trial here drew outrage Saturday from legal experts who described it as a perversion of the rule of law that may fatally discredit the Pentagon’s already disparaged handling of terrorism suspects.
:doh: oh wait its just a sitcom parody which is good because then cheney was president……
The Bush gang smears a friend — delicately
Following up on a couple of earlier items, we knew the Bush White House would respond to Matthew Dowd’s epiphany by undermining his name and credibility, we just didn’t know how. Call him “disgruntled� Accuse him of partisanship? Start spreading rumors about him personally? The Rove Playbook is thick; Bush aides have a lot of choices.
Note to Barak Obama: this is how you do it:
‘How the Holy-Rollers and the Neo-Cons Destroyed the GOP’
Gold was equally effusive about Dick Cheney : “A man of gravitas with a quick and easy wit; a conservative who’ll see a road less traveled; a political realist who sees his country and the world around him not in terms of leaden problems but golden opportunities.â€
That was then. Now, Gold’s written a book. It’s called, “Invasion of the Party Snatchers: How the Holy-Rollers and the Neo-Cons Destroyed the GOP.â€
Under Bush and Cheney, he argues, the GOP has moved away from principles of small government, prudent foreign policy and leaving people alone to live their private lives — all views Gold associates with his hero, Goldwater. “Invasion of the Party Snatchers†makes plain Gold’s contempt for the direction of his party and the guidance of its leaders.
Yeah, the bankruptcy bill, alito, the war, Obama is not as advertised.
What is it Randi says? “When people show you how they really are, believe them.”
