Mystery, "take a chance on me".

Rate: 1 Flag

 

Today, the title of my post is a mystery. Even I am unsure which way t will go, so noting misleading. Recently I was charged with a missleading title on OS, so the complainer said "bye bye".

 

One of the big debates on OS relates to how one gains attention by the community. Is it by writing as a woman, as one blog indicated? Is it by ignoring that WWW means World Wide Web and not American Wide Web with the slnt towards American customs and ceromonies and not the wider world.

 

I used a title in the offending item that pointed toward a possible Presidential crises. So, maybe the point has been prooved, as those with a world knowledge, rather than just an American knowledge, will realise that many in the wrld feel that the Presidency acted worse than TonyHaywood in the oil spill crises. Therefore, read again the satire with a world view in mind.

A Mystery item unrelated. What comes next?

 

Satchmo was so right to sing of his wonderful world.  The beauty of the creation, trees, flowers, and even the rainbow above. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Always in that order, and such beauty. Ironic that it flows from the rain we detest.

 

What a joy it was this week to see such beauty coming out of the chaos of the rain clouds.

Then there was the telephone call, that led to the need of a phone.

 

 

The call related to a BBC radio show concerning government cuts. After the discussion, it was indicated that they needed my mobile (cell) phone number. Irarely use it, so it is only now that I am aware it is not working, and a mad dash to replace it is required.

 

Anyone notice the irony? debates on spending cuts, and here I am spending more so that it can happen.

 

Mystery, unrelated? Yet, there is a connection.

 

Caring for what surrounds us. A phone,  the nature, the environment, and .........................................

 

 

 

DO WE REALLY NEED TO INVEST IN SO MUCH WORLD DESTROYING OIL?

This must be the Marie celest........................................... MYSTERY where they all went to, no posters tonight................
This place is like a football stadium three hours after the game is over. It is slooooooooow.

You write what you want to and ignore the trolls. Save your best stuff for when people are back from their Summer fleeing around.
Thank you for your encouragement once more. The big question is when will we see them fleeing back?

Now, I must attend to a few things before fleeing to meet up with the BBC for the radio broadcast this afternoon.
