richardwood401 (9:38:59 AM): it was

richardwood401 (9:52:30 AM): although I miss the little rainbow diffraction I got when the sunlight hit the crack at just the right angle.

richardwood401 (10:01:50 AM): I always felt it left a little pot of gold in the corner of my eye.

richardwood401 (10:02:35 AM): and the next time I cried my tears would clink like little gold coins.

richardwood401 (10:08:24 AM): and if they came up heads it would mean that jeebus would take over the UN and rule the earth for 1000 years.

RickWood82 (10:26:17 AM): wowzas... i step away for a few minutes and you just fly off on a tangent!

Recent car repairs/maintenance
at 147,000 miles.

Tires rotated and balanced.
Front end aligned.
Front brake calipers and rotors replaced.
Oil and filter changed.
Cleaned bicycle grease off back seat.
Windshield replaced.

See-ment has moved on
maybe
to a new ministry on
another
bike path.

Passed by a bike where
the rider had a shirt with
a picture of the
3 stooges on back.
The caption was obscured
by the raccoon tail
hanging from their helmet.

I understand the concept
of advertising on the
rear end of woman's clothing
however I am confused
about what I am to do
with the word
"PINK".

A motorcyclist with a
bright orange shirt with
the words
"CAN YOU
SEE ME
NOW
ASSHOLE"
makes a lot of sense
given what has gone on
at Excelergy recently.

Woke from a dream
disturbing enough for
me to take to my grave.

One of my pet fish
(this was not the dream),
named Stupid,
(Sorry Stupid for that)
was dead, leaving Stripey
swimming alone.

See-ment Mary
(not dream either)
sporting angry
graffiti - Abstinence makes
the church grow fondler -
Neatly branded in
black.

Its time someone simplified the
English language.
Here are two initial proposals.
1) All letters only make one sound.
2) The sound the letter makes is the sound of its name.

I have to say I was surprised.
Had expected vandalism or
disappearance however
was not expecting
the small hand made wooden
cross that someone
hung around See-ment Mary's
neck on multicolored
thread.

See-ment Mary is on the move.
She has relocated herself about 100
feet south east next to Elm brook.
Coincidentally, or not, the
"bicyclist must yield to pedestrian"
sign has been removed.
Does this match
any Nostradamus prophesies?

A 3 foot tall cement statue of
the Virgin Mary has been placed
on the Minuteman Bike Path in
Bedford. She is standing on a
cement snake which has a
cement round object,
presumably an apple, in its
mouth. Did some kids steal it
from someones yard and got sick
of lugging it around? Did someone
have a prayer answered and
put the statue there in thanks?
Did it fall out of a cargo hold of
a plane landing at nearby Hanscom
Airforce Base?

1) Does Superman have super peripheral vision?
2) If so can he see what's behind him?

The death of Jeff,
who had been unknown to me,
caused my phone to ring,
an email received and
the phrase "Death is the
true democracy, everyone
has to do it and everyone
can only do it once" to be
recalled.

"We are passing you on
your left and
one of us might lick your knee"
-Woman and her dog passing me
on the bike path.

After the rain
Elm,
Kiln and
Shawsheen nice and full.
cicadas in full chorus.
lone bull frog croaking
green, green, green.
mr. rogers koan guided me
"sometimes it is fun to do
things slow"

A women and a man approach
me on bikes, the woman in
front. Each wear those little rear
view mirrors on their helmets
that remind me of little
teleprompters.
The woman says hi,
I say hi,
The man gives a toot
with his nether eye.

Typical family vacation rule:
"Don't run by the pool"
Wicked cool family vacation rule:
"Watch out for dead animals in the stream, they
attract boa constrictors"

Typical phone call conversation:
"Getting much rain there"
Not so typical phone call conversation:
"Damn it, you snaked that gift idea
out from under me"

Typical picnic lunch conversation in the park:
"How is work going"
Not an everyday picnic conversation in the park:
"How far back in time will the dead come back
to life as zombies?" "As long as there is enough
musculature to support movement, ie:
NO zombie skeletons"

Outside my window
at Lexington Corporate Center
Building One
it is a worm gold mine
for the robins.

Job security

Orange day lilies
stretch towards the sun
and I brush by the leathery
petals with my
arms and legs
enabling me to
put pollinator on
my resume.

In retrospect

While it didn't,
in and of itself,
doom my marriage,
starting it by
taking a vow invoking
ritualistic
cannibalism tempted
the fates.
