I’m wearing a t-shirt today that I had made at Zazzle with a Lawrence quote on it. So I’ve been reading a bit of Lawrence’s writing and stumbled across this extract from Apocalypse and the Writings on Revelation. It captures a sense of euphoria I’ve had all week long: For man, as for flower and […]

I was reminded again today of how incredibly important it is to team up with the right angels and how incredible the angels are that we teamed up with. One day when I’m not flying stealth I’ll write a book about this stuff. Until then you get the adventures of Ziggy my cat and other […]

I know this isn’t new but… I joined myspace about a year ago and added one friend because I wanted to check it out. I literally logged in once and never logged in again. It’s housecleaning day today on my gmail account and here’s what I came up with searching for “would like to be […]
