Gone Fishing?
I know it’s been a while since I posted here. (Bless you, Suzanne, for reminding me how long!) I am writing a book based on the TGU material, and it tends to focus my attention on it rather than on any other form of writing. No excuse, but it’s the closest thing to an excuse…

Back again, more or less
All done. After a short but intense bit of work, I finished the book. Yesterday I turned in my manuscript to Bob Friedman, who is going to publish it next Spring as part of his Rainbow Ridge Books line with Square One publishing company. Tentatively, I’m calling it Accessing the Cosmic Internet. May or may…

The opposite to madness
Besides blogging, and writing books, I am guilty of writing a monthly column for the online magazine The Meta Arts (www.themetaarts.com). Although the month of December is nearly over, the column for December 2010 may be of interest. The opposite to madness On the day after the mid-term congressional elections last month, I asked the…

Happy New (World)
Very interesting to see Michael Ventura quoting from his own predictions as set forth in his 1985 book Shadow Dancing in the USA. It was that book, which I came across as a book reviewer for the Norfolk (Va) Virginian-Pilot, that introduced me to Ventura. I recognized his importance then, an importance that has been…

In December, I finished writing The Cosmic Internet, presenting a logical explanation of what I’ve gotten from the guys upstairs on how the world works and what our place in it is. Upon completing the task, I had a sense that I should do something out of my ordinary routine, so I decided to take…

Slow down!
Saturday, January 29, 2011 5 AM, and for the first time in a long time I feel like really communicating. For whatever reason or combination of reasons I am up and seemingly am back in business. So –? Welcome back. It isn’t as if we went anywhere. Actually, it is exactly “as if” — that…

Conversation, January 30
Sunday, January 30, 2011 7:30 AM. So, I am very aware that I went to the Florida Keys as an indirect result of some restlessness within me saying that my accustomed way of living had become unsatisfactory. I am equally aware that I am having to avoid temptations — a crossword puzzle, a Nero Wolfe,…

Moving on
As of Sunday February 27, 2011. after nearly 13 years on what we call The New Land (the grounds near The Monroe Institute in rural Virginia), I will begin a new life in Charlottesville. Once the process got started, it went pretty quickly. A month ago, I knew I wanted to move, but hadn’t…

Consciousness, Hemingway, and war wounds
