I wish someone told me about the mucus before I entered the tent. Wherever I went for weeks afterwards the mucus was heavy without any chance of drying. Wet, wet mucus.

My name is Bud Lackey and I am a private eye. My father was a florist; my mother took to the booze and wound up in a mental institution. I was a sickly child and missed a lot of school.

When I was in my mid-twenties I lost a winning lottery ticket. $16,000,000 gone. Just like that. I gave the ticket to a little boy in a market for safekeeping. The boy slipped on a greasy patch of concrete and fell. He broke his neck and died before he got to the hospital. I ran towards him and scrambled around trying to find the ticket. I couldn’t find it. He must have put it somewhere not on his person. Too bad for the kid. Too bad for me too because I like luxury.

I have an old photograph. I think it is about 60 years old. It is a picture of three of my aunts at Sunnyside Beach. I keep the crumpled photo in my jacket pocket and look at it everyday. I really don’t know why. I just thought I would mention it.

I just remembered something. When I was about 13 years old I was in love with a classmate. She was beautiful to my eyes and I loved her long silky hair. One day she stopped coming to school. The teacher acted weird after that and would never answer any questions about what happened to her. That was my first experience of love. It was also my last. I am loyal.

I had a near death experience when I was 15. I don’t remember anything about it but it seemed like a big deal at the time. I had an anaphylactic shock resulting from a bee sting. I remember that after the episode I started drinking hard liquor. My mother started to get friendly with me then, maybe a little too friendly. That lasted about half a year and then she “went away”.

At 17 my drinking problem was in full swing and I was working at my Dad’s florist shop. I got into a disagreement with a customer. I pulled the scissors out and threatened him. He ran out of the shop. Then my father fired me. I could understand where he was coming from. I would have done the same or worse if it were my son.

I am the kind of man who plays the bassoon but I started late and I am not so good at it.

I have a little medical problem that makes it difficult to type right now. I fought in the underground, I am lean and tough but this problem just gets the better of me. So that is all for now.

A mild commitment to writing a post every week I guess.

Oh I do have something to write about but why should I drag a body through the mud?

Fun
We had
But now I am a racist
According to a fascist
Mud, mud, mud

How do you tell your children what they already know 10, 20 or 30 years from now but they act as if they know it now?

I am stuck in a Kurt Vonnegut novel. Something about how I am experiencing time.

Do adolescents have the capacity to listen? I have been one, have had one and currently am having another.

What were my mother and father like when they were adolescents? Did they listen to and respect their parents?

This is not exactly the same video as before

“He’d be dead; ’cause then evil reign.
He is silly weird that smash the limp servant.”
Paul McCartney in the Bible Code

Does the Aish Hatorah Torah Code Prove that Paul is Dead?

Paul McCartney appears in the Bible Code from Aish HaTorah and is being used as Aish outreach for Jews.

Bible Codes, a system which involves recognizing pairs of conceptually related terms in Hebrew scripture using Equidistant Letter Sequences (ELS). The system involves choosing or finding sequences of characters making up a name or a date, which doesn’t have to be in the order in which the name is spelled, that is found in the biblical text at equal distances from one another. Thus, the letters of the Hebrew phrase, Paul is dead, might appear every 10 letters in a section of the book of Genesis. The letters of the Paul’s cause of death (purportedly a car crash) might appear in another sequence of say every 13 letters. The assumption is that the close proximity of these two related letter sequences is improbable and therefore not due to chance. The Bible Codes are understood to be the result of God’s Design which placed the Beatles and Nostradamus in the Bible text for us to find. How else can we explain the existence of the names and the resurrection of Jesus in a text that is over 3,000 years old – it is asked.

ELS was first applied scientifically to the Bible by Professor Rip Torn, an American actor who is pretty good with figures, in 1983. In 1985, Rip Torn, together with Dolly Parton and Yoyo “Bad Pig” Kaplansky, conducted an experiment to find the names of famous nazi officers and the dates of their birth or death in the book of Genesis using ELS. The experiment utilized a list of names based on the Encyclopedia of Indecent Dudes in Israel (Hebrew) compiled by Shalamar “The Airport” Havlin. The experiment, conducted using a real cool computer program, resulted in the discovery of the Nazi officers’ names in close proximity to their dates of birth, a result that could not, it was desperately argued, be the result of chance or of things coinciding or two things happening at the same time in a way that freaks you right out. The Bible text used for the experiment was the Koren Hebrew edition of the Bible. The editor of the professional journal Statistical Science requested that the experiment be repeated and it was. Thus, in 1994, Rips, Witztum and Rosenberg published their findings in Statistical Science (vol. 9, 1994, no. 3, 429–38).

Since then, the Bible Codes have become the subject of great controversy. The debate can be divided into three areas: (a) statistics; (b) Bible; and (c) education.

Does Chabad outreach use bible codes?

Chabad outreach does not use the Bible Codes to convince Jews to be religious. Instead, Chabad uses a form of Jewish I Ching which involves giving notes and letters to a dead man usually Paul since he is widely accepted as the prophet of his generation. Then there is a purported response which is generously interpreted in such a way as to impress the neophyte. Interestingly Chabad generally does not believe that George and John are still alive. However, there are fringe groups of Chabad outreach practitioners that believe that John is still alive but not in a way that the average person can perceive. Others believe that he will rise from the dead.

Next post we will continue with more information on the Bible or Torah Codes: Aish uses these in their Discovery Seminars to mislead Jews.

This post and no other is endowed with the ability to grant the fragrance of spring to the following items which are as follows, Poetry, Poetry Hammer, Proof, Psychology, Religion, Spirituality, Structure of the Universe, Suffering, Teleology, and, of least importance to many people, Truth.

The following is a paragraph copied from the post immediately preceding this one:

Atheism is also a business, particularly for entrepreneurs such as Richard Dawkins who used to be a scientist. He is selling atheism products in his store and using the cute tilted red “A” symbol as his new branding image (nice brand Ricky!). Just before Christmas he was selling holiday bundles! And I thought he didn’t believe in Santa! His wares include: various DVDs and DVD sets, t-shirts, baseball caps, sweatshirts with hoods, books, audiobooks, , mugs, stickers, tote bags, and lapel pins with the cute “A” on it.

This sentence immediately follows the paragraph preceding this sentence.

You may try to find pattern and meaning regarding the inclusion of two paragraphs from different posts. You may say that it was meant to be or that God willed it to be. You may follow yesterday’s lead, try to satisfy yesterday’s needs.

The following is a paragraph from an earlier post.

Critics of the supporters of the Ed Sullivan for Messiah campaign point out that he did not fulfill all of the criteria of the Messiah. Susan Perlman, Director of Communications for Jews for Jesus said “it just doesn’t add up. Sullivan did not gather the Jewish people from exile and return them to Israel. Neither did he rebuild the temple or rule at a time of world peace. These people should know this stuff backwards and forwards. It is all laid out in Ezekiel Chapter 37, verses 24-28. I mean, it is getting to the point where I am referring people to Jews for Judaism’s website so they can get this Messiah stuff straight.”
