Oh Oh!



Little Penguin looking how to pass his day.

Hungry seal
Also looking to see how to pass his day.

They have a friendly game of tag.
Thankfully the penguin got away.


I always liked these little guys in their tuxedos .
They are soooo cute.

I also thought seals were cute till I saw one eat a penguin.

Then I thought killer whales were cute till I saw how truly smart they were.
They are thinking creatures who know how to hunt in coordinated packs and teach each other,
in a similar way men hunters, teach others.

It is a fact of life that survival plays a big role in how creatures behave.
Sometimes they are friends and sometimes a friend becomes your next meal.

I remember how many bunnies and chickens, friends I raised and loved,
became food on my plate.

I would unknowingly eat them, and then go out still looking for them, asking neighbors
if they saw my chicken or bunny.

My parents would smile their secret smile and never tell me that my meal
came from my best friend.
They knew I wouldn't eat it. lol

So they let me think it escaped and go on looking for it.
Needless to say, I never found my escaped pet.
I sat and sulked for a while but then thought, maybe they are happy to be free.

You always have to think positive.

Adopted Turtle
Deep within a forest a little turtle began to climb a tree. After hours of effort he reached the top, jumped into the air waving his front legs and crashed to the ground. After recovering, he slowly climbed the tree again, jumped, and fell to the ground.

The turtle tried again and again while a couple of birds sitting on a branch watched his sad efforts. Finally, the female bird turned to her mate.

"Dear," she chirped, "I think it's time to tell him he's adopted."

Bear Advisory
The Forest Service has issued a BEAR WARNING in the national forests for this summer. They're urging everyone to protect themselves by wearing bells and carrying pepper spray.

Campers should be alert for signs of fresh bear activity, and they should be able to tell the difference between Black Bear dung and Grizzy Bear dung.

Black Bear dung is rather small and round. Sometimes you can see fruit seeds and/or squirrel fur in it.

Grizzly Bear dung has bells in it, and smells like pepper spray!

One Talented Hamster
A mangy-lookin' guy goes into a bar and orders a drink. The bartender says "No way. I don't think you can pay for it." The guy says "You're right. I don't have any money, but if I show you something you haven't seen before, will you give me a drink?" The bartender says "Only if what you show me ain't risque." "Deal!" says the guy, as he reaches into his coat pocket and pulls out a hamster. He puts the hamster on the bar and it runs to the end of the bar, down a barstool, across the room, up the piano, jumps on the key board and starts playing Gershwin songs. And the hamster is really good. The bartender says, "You're right. I've never seen anything like that before. That hamster is truly good on the piano." The guy downs the drink and asks the bartender for another. "Money or another miracle else no drink," says the bartender. The guy reaches into his coat again and pulls out a frog. He puts the frog on the bar, and the frog starts to sing. He has a marvelous voice and great pitch, a fine singer. A stranger from the other end of the bar runs over to the guy and offers him $300 for the frog. The guy says "It's a deal." He takes the three hundred and gives the frog to the stranger, who runs out of the bar with it. The bartender says to the guy, "Are you some kind of nut?! You sold a singing frog for $300? It must have been worth millions. You must be crazy!" "Not so," says the guy. "The hamster is also a ventriloquist!"


Have a good one.

Encounters at the end of the WORLD

Posted by Picasa




Multitasking,
I watched the program, "Encounters at the Edge of the World" where a small penguin decided to separate, from the group heading inland to lay and hatch eggs, and walk out into the vastness of the Antarctic where there was nothing but death waiting for him.

The beautiful, serene,mystic, Antarctic.
Scientists studying this piece of solitude, found that people are facing the same end as the dinosaurs did.

They said creatures that live under the water, are menacing and dangerous and this may have forced creatures to come out of the ocean onto land, to escape death.

They found such things as nutrinoes, which go through everything and are needed to create the basic elements.

Nutrinoes are so small, they can go through everything, including ourselves, which makes us a part of everything around us.

The scientists know how to calculate them but not see them.
They called them, like something out of the spirit world.

The only way to see them would be in a blue lightening light of maybe 1/100millionth of a second.

Alan Watts was quoted as saying something like:
Through our eyes the universe is perceiving itself Through our ears the universe is listening to its causing harmonies We are witness through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory” -----------------------------------------

I have long believed that all that we are, was begot from the universe, through which we listen, when it comes to us. This is why Bethoven could hear music even when he was deaf. This is where we got our Picasso's and for all we know our Bible is enriched with messages sent from heaven to our prophets. And why not if we are all one?
God had said one thing we are closer to coming to understand. He said I AM and because he is,
we are.

Watts said it in reverse and this makes a lot of sense because we make noise and send messages back out there for some one/thing to hear.

Watts, if I am not mistaken,was a philosopher and studied a lot of Buddhism.

Can you imagine the messages, waves of explosions, fire and hurricanes,we send out into the universe?
If everything is attached to these waves in nutrinoes, then for sure man will live forever and rebirth is and will occur on other planets welcoming life be it in dust, minerals or ice water......
We do not need to be conscious of our existence to know or understand that we are.
We suffer, because we are conscious and it is this consciousness that creates differences like between good and evil, which otherwise would not exist. Life is about change and change does not consist of good or evil. Like everything else, it just is.

What happens, knowing all things go full circle, when all the noise we make in waves, comes back and attacks earth? Would Earth be able to withstand the echoes from the past or would they cause it to explode like a soprano's voice shatters glass?
Would this be good, evil or just change that needed to take place for no reason other than it just did.

It may be advantageous to our world, if we lived quieter lives or maybe it really doesn't matter at all.

Maybe by playing more symphonies, the universe will listen and become conscious of its' Glory.......and ours.

Have a good one!!!

Compassionate Penguins


Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in
Antarctica- where do they go?

Wonder no more!!!

It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird which Lives an extremely ordered and complex life.

The penguin is very committed to its family and will mate for life, as Well as maintaining a form of compassionate contact with its off spring
Throughout its life.

If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the
Family and social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the Dead bird to be rolled into and buried.

The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and
Sing:



"freeze a jolly good fellow."





Hey,,,,, I just send them on!!!

Pigs Is Pigs by Ellis Parker Butler.

An extremely funny story about an argument
over shipping costs of two guinea pigs..

MOTHER TERESA AND GOD

Mother Teresa died and went to heaven. God greeted her at the Pearly Gates. "Be thou hungry, Mother Teresa?" asked God.
"I could eat," Mother Teresa replied.
So God opened a can of tuna and reached for a chunk of rye bread and they began to share it. While eating this humble meal, Mother Teresa looked down into Hell and saw the inhabitants devouring huge steaks, lobsters, pheasants, and pastries. Curious, but deeply trusting, she remained quiet.
The next day God again invited her to join him for a meal. Again, it was tuna and rye bread. Once again, Mother Teresa could see the denizens of Hell enjoying lamb, turkey, venison, and delicious desserts. Still she said nothing.
The following day, mealtime arrived and another can of tuna was opened. She couldn't contain herself any longer. Meekly, she asked, "God, I am grateful to be in heaven with you as a reward for the pious, obedient life I led. But here in heaven all I get to eat is tuna and a piece of rye bread and in the Other Place they eat like emperors and kings! I just don't understand it..."
God sighed. "Let's be honest Teresa," He said, ". . . for just two people, it doesn't pay to cook."
