* Okay.
* Say, I have a quote for you. You might like it.
“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be the blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
___J.R.R. Tokien The Lord Of the Rings.

One more:
“I wish it need not have happened in my
time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all
who live to see such times. But that is
not for them to decide. All we have to
decide is what to do with the time that
is given us.”___J.R.R. Tokien

Very nice. (However, as I’m suffering a bad tooth issue right now, words like ‘root’ and ‘crown’ aren’t exactly resonating :-(
Here’s one of my favorite poems:
The Donkey
When fishes flew and forests walked
And figs grew upon thorn,
Some moment when the moon was blood
Then surely I was born.
With monstrous head and sickening cry
And ears like errant wings,
The devil’s walking parody
On all four-footed things.
The tattered outlaw of the earth,
Of ancient crooked will;
Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb,
I keep my secret still.
Fools! For I also had my hour;
One far fierce hour and sweet:
There was a shout about my ears,
And palms before my feet.
-G. K. Chesterton

* I’m sorry about your suffering with the bad tooth.

He was appreciated by many.

PS
C.K. Chesterton:
He was importantly and consistently
on the side of the angels.
Behind the Johnsonian fancy-dress,
so reassuring to the British public,
he concealed the most serious and
revolutionary designs—concealing
them by exposure ... Chesterton’s
social and economic ideas...were
fundamentally Christian and Catholic.
He did more, I think, than any man
of his time—and was able to do more
than anyone else, because of his
particular background, development
and abilities as a public
performer—to maintain the existence
of the important minority in the
modern world. He leaves behind a
permanent claim upon our loyalty,
to see that the work that he did
in his time is continued in ours

Sorry. ‘C’.
No, it IS G.
A project for you:
Read ‘The Ethics of Elfland’, and ‘splain it to me.
G’Nite!

Here is one possibility. 2 minutes.

UFO 2013 - John Todd on UFO’s, Demons, Unclean Spirits (HD)
Years ago I saw those over Seattle on July 4th. Pretty interesting if one is thinking about UFO’s. A bit of research and the Asians (Seattle full of them as you know) use these sky lanterns quite a bit on holidays.
