Not really related directly with 9-11 event and the aftermath. Some humour on Politics... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THE "TWO-COW EXPLANATION" OF WHAT MAKES... A SOCIALIST: You have two cows. The government takes one and gives it to your neighbor. A REPUBLICAN: You have two cows. Your neighbor has none. So what? A DEMOCRAT: You have two cows. Your neighbor has none. You feel guilty for being successful. You vote people into office who tax your cows, forcing you to sell one to raise money to pay the tax. The people you voted for then take the tax money and buy a cow and give it to your neighbor You feel righteous. A COMMUNIST: You have two cows. The government seizes both and provides you with milk. A FASCIST: You have two cows. The government seizes both and sells you the milk. You join the underground and start a campaign of sabotage. DEMOCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE: You have two cows. The government taxes you to the point you have to sell both to support a man in a foreign country who has only one cow, which was a gift from your government. CAPITALISM, AMERICAN STYLE: You have two cows. You sell one, buy a bull, and build a herd of cows. BUREAUCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE: You have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk, then pours the milk down the drain. AN AMERICAN CORPORATION: You have two cows. You sell one, and force the other to produce the milk of four cows. You are surprised when the cow drops dead. Posy 10/26/01 14:51:22 MDT

"Speak to us of Crime and Punishment." - Kahlil Gibran "THE PROPHET" ... But I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you, So the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also. And as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of the whole tree, So the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all. Like a procession you walk together towards your god-self. ... the whole verse can be found here: http://antonia.webhost.cl/~ekaftan/gibran/gibran12.html Posy 10/23/01 20:11:17 MDT

Since Apocalypse America began I have been heavily engaged sorting out what is happening in the intelligence world. The following is my first trawl... http://www.gordonthomas.ie/osama GORDON THOMAS is the author of thirty-eight books published world-wide, several of which have dealt with various aspects of the intelligence world.

Himalaya soars For most people, this film is the only glimpse they will ever get into a culture quickly slipping away. http://www.canoe.ca:80/JamMoviesReviewsH/himalaya_smith-sun.html Posy 10/19/01 17:33:08 MDT

Practicing compassion The challenge of compassion -- keeping an open heart in dealing with others -- is wrestled with in all spiritual traditions. The Dalai Lama's teachings on this subject, drawn from his visit to America in 1999, form the basis of his book "An Open Heart." http://www.salon.com:80/audio/nonfiction/2001/10/19/dalai_lama/index.html [ Audio clips available on that page ] Posy 10/19/01 17:25:31 MDT
