Bigfoot In A Box, Love, Obama

Tropical storm Faye is on the way: As Audrey and I drove to Alachua City for hay and horse food, we saw a flame bursting peridically on some electrical lines. Upon closer inspection, I saw that a pine bough was stuck on one line, and when the wind blew it into another line, there would be a big flame of electicity. It was probably caused by the sap in the pine limb. I called 911, and in two minutes a Clay Electrical truck was on the scene, and in seven minutes a fire truck was there.
Saturday, while I was waitng on the pier at the lake for Bobby to pick me up, I got a call from Mikah Singleton who gave me the latest on the Bigfoot in a freezer story. The two men who supposedly found it had said the day before that DNA analyses had reported that one area of the Bigfoot showed DNA related to humans, another area showed an inconclusive result, and the area from the stomach showed the DNA of an opossum. I said, "Well, maybe Bigfoot ate a possum." Mikah also told me that the two men are now offerring a Bigfoot expedition next month for a thousand dollars a person. That's a lot of money for a several days of several days of camping. Mikah had also found on the Internet a man who claimed the two men only had an ape suit in the freezer because he had made it along with the headpiece. This morning on Fox News, Megyn Kelly announced that the nationally known Bigfoot hunter, Tom Biscardi, was going to sue the two men, both cops, for fraud because he had paind "thousands" for the Bigfoot in the freezer only to find out that it was a rubber ape suit. Both men have disappeared. A Fox contributor pointed out that Biscardi himself had pulled a scam on the public a few years ago when he advertised a pay-per-view showing of the capture of a live Bigfoot, several hundred people bought into it, and nothing was shown. Here's a real case of what goes around comes around apparently. For Biscardi to go anywhere with his suit against the two swindlers, there has to be reasonable expectation that there would be a Bigfoot in a box (freezer). I don't think you can reasonably expect there to be an eight foot Bigfoot in a freezer. I've never seen an eight foot freezer, though there are many stories of human bodies being found in freezers.
I want to illustrate my concept of the hypothesis that you are either on the path of love or the path of hate in everything you do: My sister Sara has two sons, the older is absolutely brilliant. He has scored first in the state of Vermont in mathematics. But he is, like many scholars, somewhat introverted and cryptic at times. The younger son is very intelligent and much more outgoing and verbal. Last summer, a close relative was planning a week at the ocean and had rented a gorgeous house. She invited Sara's younger son but not the older one. Sara and I discussed it, but only in terms of what path our relative was on. We decided she was on the path of hate regarding Sara's older son, and since Sara and our relative were not speaking, I said I would write our relative and ask her to get on the path of love with Sara's older son and invite him to a week at the beach. There was no more analysis: we did not diagnose the relative or call her any names. We simply hoped she would do the right thing, that is, get on the path of love.
The relative responded well to my letter, calling Sara's son. He didn't know why she called, asked my sister about it, but never got around to calling the relative back. But the relative was back on the path of love toward him. If you find people acting hatefully, try not diagnosing or labeling them, but finding a polite, warm way of suggesting they get on the path of love. Remember that this was Christ's admonition for us: We were to love each other like He loved us.
He gave his human life through torture for us as a blood sacrifice so that we could be forgiven and allowed to enter the kingdom of heaven after our deaths. How many macho beefcakes do you know who would manipulate the Romans and the Sanhedrins to torture him to death first through a near-fatal whipping and then the crucifix? Who would have the guts to do that?
Obama, The Teleprompter, has an advertisement that says something like: "We are what we have been waiting for?" Jean-Jacques Rousseau, the father of fascism, wrote that there should be a secular religion to replace Christianity with the political vanguard as the new priests. This religion would be based upon "the general will" of the people and would result in the people worshipping themselves as the new God. Doesn't Obama's "We are what we have been waiting for." dovetail nicely with this part of the fascist religion?
Correction: Yesterday, I believe I wrote that the Bigfoot in Teddy Roosevelt's book rolled over the human he had killed. By that, I meant that he rolled on the body of the man as he frolicked about, not that he rolled the man over.
I hope the electricity will be on so we can meet tomorrow on the Internet, my friend. Two-Guns at peternickerson12@yahoo.com.
