A NEW EARTH!!!

Dear Janisdd --

I also believe that we continue to exist after our "earth suits" die ...

Additionally, I believe that as we achieve different vibrational levels in response to the thoughts and actions we put out there into the universe ... that ultimately we attract what we are ... and we repel what we aren't. I realize ... how profound, eh? _he-he

Let me try another stab at it ... Living in this physical world, we can't help but be affected (in some way or another) by the actions of others. However, I believe that we can decide how deeply we are affected. Paraphrasing the words of another: "We can be in the world, but not of the world."

We always have a choice in every situation ... even if it is only how we choose to think and feel about the situation ... and particularly, how we respond.

Love y'all ... you awe-maze me! Now pass the butter and salt!

Dear Hazza --

Just couldn't resist commenting on your newest avatar! Doesn't that face just beat all?!? LOL

Perhaps a visit to the ophthamogist is in order ... they do have correctional lenses to help with the crossed eyes.

Now, open wide and say "Awwwwwe!"

P-b-b-l-l-t-t

_{blowing raspberries}

Love ya!

Anyone got some whipped cream to spare?

Since you mention karma and llama together in your question, I do see a resemblance between the new brunette avatar and the avatar of Dally Llama. Are you suggesting reincarnation into a different lifeform has occurred? or has the Karma Chameleon Chamillionaire been messing with your imagination and produced shapeshifted avatars?

The Show must go on.... and on..... and on...for the Master(s) of Disguise attuned by the Family Farce 5.

Yes, the sentence with words "...we are taought.." with this being the intentional spelling were of my own doing, influenced by a teaching that our greatest blessing can become our worst disaster and our worst disaster can become our greatest blessing.

The profound pointer was ET's wordsmanship in a chapter subheading of TPON.

Thank you for pointing out that the computer thinks foowoof should be foolproof, I did not know that....it is a great comfort knowing I can't harm my Self!

Now, on with the ArePo Opera, the intermission is over and the house lights are blinking....audience participation is expected.

(It helps to have the Universe as a co-conspirator in laughs)

Back to our Joy Story rock opera as the audience has been reseated after intermission:

Top Gonzo closes his eyes and very shortly R.E.M. produces an audience sing along number, It's the End of the World as We Know It, and I Feel Fine and for good measure leads into a second audience number Furry Happy Monsters with a unique monster mask provided to each audience member by the opera wardrobe department.

happns has already picked out her Dally Llama mask.

Gonzo was by far....my favorite!

Can be add a little Universal Mind Control for spice?

Dang da-da-dang it, LLV, it is Common for Avant Garde theater to Get Down to something controLversial! A Gr8t Idea!.

Be can also give everyone in audience a Gonzo mask as it would be very fitting followup to this scene from Act I of our story at http://www.oprah.com/community/message/940139#940139. Giving everyOne a Gonzo mask is presaged by the verses from the Gonzo piece by Ted gNu-gent:

"I know what you know.
It happns ev'ry night, I gotta take a byte
Ev'ryOne's Gonzo
Come on
I know you know ev'ryOne's Gonzo"

The Gonzo masks' hypnotic, bulging eyes OO would emphaze the infinite expanse of the Universal Mind Control.

To paraphrase happns, "Be excited.....be very excited" by the spice of controLLVersy.

It would be just like the Haka Queen to drop an arial bomb on this plot development inhabited by the audience.

As the audience waits with bated breath for the Haka Queen to reap-a-paer to her ArePoOpera pals-in-drome, one member, to break the tension, turns on his Blackberry and reads aloud the entire contents of http://www.oprah.com/community/message/958880#958880

Suddenly Pandamonium sweeps through the audience, and EveryOne is Kung Fu Fighting over the stunning, rearranging re-arreignment of the Zoodiac. Even Nostradamus is rolling 'n rocking in his grave.

Dear Foowie --

You certainly know how to keep a gal on the edge of her seat! LOL

And the way you have me thread hoppin' to keep up with ya makes me feel like I'm riding the Slip Stream!!!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Carry on!

Pickin' and a grinnin' ... er ... did I mean pickin' me nose and a thumbing my ears at ya .... er .... pickin' me ears and thumbing me nose ... whatever ...

er ... maybe I meant ... pickin' me golly gees. Hmmmm .... whatever ... durned cobwebs!

Top Gonzo, inspired by Kazza, free2bfree, offers the audience a Chinese menu as the venue now becomes a dinner opera.

Choose one entertainment item from each column.

Column A - Song ______________________________Column B - Movie

Slipstream by Jethro Tull.................................................Slipstream (2007) with Anthony Hopkins

Slipstream by Threshold..................................................Slipstream (2005) with Sean Astin

Queen of Slipstream by Van Morrison

Slipstream by Phillip Boa

Slipstream by Allan Clarke (of the Hollies)

Slipstream by Beanbag

Starlings of the Slipstream by Pavement

Slipstream by Killing Joke (contains very New Earth lyric: "Time means nothing")

Terrific idea to ride the Slip Stream, Kazz.

Top Gonzo was thinking the Haka Queen would have to sing Killer Queen by Queen to restore order to the Pandamonium in the audience, but now thinks Queen of the Slipstream will be very calming. Four Queens in one sentence, that is a heck of a poker hand.

Oh, Foowie!!!

You do know how to tickle me funny bone ... wherever that is on an anatomy chart!

You've listed some pretty cool Golden Oldies there ... and I'm not one for wishing to have to make choices! As for me .... I'll take one of each, please.

Just one of each, mind you ... don't want to be accused of being piggish!

A girl's gotta watch her waistline. Or so they tell me. LOL They sure know how to take the fun outta things if I let 'em ... whoever and wherever the ubiquitous they are! LOL

By the way .... does a Royal Flush beat four Queens? Nature is calling .... and I was just wondering ... I'll be sure to wash me hands thoroughly before delicately tucking me napkin under me chin. Now .... do you expect a froggy-footed fairy to use chopsticks ... or is it okay if I bring me own spoon ... don't wanna waste a drop of me entrees.

Till later ... Here's Looking at You, Kid ... Kid Foowie, that is!

Luck and intuition play the cards with spades to start... and after he's been hooked I'll play the one that's on his heart... Lady GaGa

Dear Hazza --

I knew you were an old softy under that amazing head of hair! LOL A girl after Kung-Foowie's heart! Ahhhhh....

By the way ... I love Kenny (the Gambler) Rogers .... and Kenny G!

Oh, Kenny .... both Kennys!!! Better than a "take me away Calgon" moment! LOL

Now ... tell me about what's causing all this tension. Shoulder massage help, perhaps?

Ahhhh .... Kenny G and golly-gees .... weeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! Turn up the stereo ...

Hi Kazza, (free2bfree Karen...Right?)

Not really sure if I have the goings on here down here in the sandbox correctly, or not. I know that you're Karen, which then becomes Kazza, and I'm Blu, so does that make me Bluzza, or Bassa? Of course at times I can be complex just like at this very moment, so let me carry on, and explain in more detail.

Some of you know me as Jan which would make me a Jazza here, and most all other's have known me a s Blu. Not to complicate anything here at all, but as you know Kazza, I have a pasion for music of many genres, as well as many other area's of the Art's as well. So since I do care for Jazz, and the Blues, am I to be noted here as Jazza Bluzza, Bluzza Jazza, or Bluzza, or just "All That Jazz'? I just knew I'd make it a bit "Complicated" here..."I'm Sorry."

Now I'm off to clean up a mess I made in the kitchen as I spilled some "Grease" on the counter top. Better that I'd spilled it there rather then on a "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof" but as we all know, accident's happen...and "That's Life."

So please dear Kazza, and all other "Azza's" here, do tell me if I'm "Clueless" or kinda catching on here. I wanna play too, but know that it just can't be by "My Way" only. Most grateful for your help about what to be called here with due "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" to you, and all others because I too would like to play "In The Game Called Love" here in the sandbox with you, and all other's.

Love, and Hug's,

Blu

As I always remind you Kazza, and all others..."Listen To Music"

I like Bluzza....I will be Lala...so if we line up....and if Fooie is "Po"....we'd be:....Lala-Po-Bluzza!!!!!!!

Too cool!

Even cooler is the fact Fooie jams out to Common......TOOOOOOO COOOOOOL INdeed!!!!!
