Halfway Down the Mountain

Prosperity Path Soul Group playing Cat’s Cradle and other 19th century games, June 25, 1871.

In exactly six months, we’ll be saying “Merry Christmas”, “Happy Chanukah”, “Dig Infinity”, or the various equivalents so popular among humans of Planet Earth (it’s actually a moon, but who’s counting). We’re already halfway through the year, but it feels like only a few weeks since last Christmas, right?? Like I warned ya at the beginning of 2014, I’ve clipped some of the superfluous days out of the year, so it’d go faster. You’ve undoubtedly noticed a few discrepancies in mysteriously missing “days” of the week, and noted perhaps that I’ve lengthened the hours while shortening the number of days in the month. It’s not just to get Space Buddhaa back here faster, honest, although that’s part of the plan; I only clipped the days that would have sucked had they happened, anyway. I hope you appreciate the shortened year, and we’ll have a regular one next year, I promise. My whole purpose in re-writing the .ini file (I never mess with the .exe) to shorten the year was to demonstrate exactly how uniquely subjective time really is, and that videogame technology works quite well in an ordered universe like this one. Say, by the time we’re at the New Year, you should have a good grasp on Thursdays!

See You At The Top!!!

Help Needed, and Fast!!!

How would you like to not have to hear me asking you for your help in paying off the land mortgage of $300,000 ever again???

Let me explain the situation: we do not presently own the land, and haven’t been able to own our own land for decades for a dumb and totally unjust rule. Banks don’t lend to nonprofits, period, and that’s across the board everywhere countrywide and maybe even worldwide, because banks don’t want the Scrooge Complex to be laid upon them; they simply don’t want to have to EVER foreclose on a church or synagogue, and that’s the whole reason, nothing to do with law or business practices, just public relations.

Because we have a very good relationship with our bank, and we’ve practiced exceptionally good management over the past 43 years, never ever missing a mortgage payment, we’re being offered a chance to actually own our own property, and without a qualified co-signer (someone earning over $200,000 a year would barely qualify). We are being considered for a loan, but we must bring some money to the table, actually $15,000 in cash, straight up.

Tiffany models Customized Peter Grimm Cowboy Hat artisaned by ej gold — $125.

Tiffany came over the other day to model hats — I wasn’t there for most of the photo shoot, but I was there for the end of it, and I do have all the shots taken in that short impromptu session, and this is one nice one that shows off the hat. This wrapped-fibre tailed & blazened custom cowboy hat from a Listed American Artist retails for a mere $125, and I make ’em myself, all by hand except for the genuine tagged Peter Grimm hat itself, which can be shaped, formed and customized in many different ways. Thanks to all those who did the modeling session. Wholesale on the hats is $65 — you only need to order 2 to get the wholesale price, so you’re actually getting one hat free!!!

Prosperity Path Gold Claim — Good Spots to Prospect

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

There are some nice air-breaks and drops in the upper part of this photo, just below the ripples. You’d look for bedrock, of course, but first, you’ll want to find the exact water-break where the floodwater allows the gold to drop straight down through an air pocket. Gold wants to fall first, and will be ahead of all the other heavy minerals, slightly upstream from the sand, where the gravel falls and the heavier metals will be found.

Prosperity Gold Claim Campground Photo Tour

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Here’s Uncle Claude’s photo of Bill Albin walking the route toward the camping area; you can pitch a tent here if you don’t mind sharing your space with the bears — they’re friendly and most anxious to meet anyone with anything resembling food. There are campgrounds aplenty all around, and lots of rentals. Living right there on the claim is not recommended, and it’s less than three minutes from the established and sleeping areas.

What Does it Mean, “Institute for the Development of the Harmonious Human Being”, and why such a long name?

086

Good question. Please note that the phrase doesn’t read “Institute for the Harmonization and Development of Disagreeable Assholes” or any variant thereof. The name of the Institute should be taken very literally.

Development of the BEING requires that the Human Part and the Being Part be already entirely and spontaneously-extemporaneously harmonious when the candidate shows up at the Gate.

Entrepeneurial Enterprises

This was my mother’s sterling silver example of her modernist jewelry teacher, Art Smith’s “Calder” necklace, 1953; Smith was inspired by the Alexander Calder show at the Modern. I’m currently engaged in creating Modernist Pendants out of copper, brass, silver and 18 karat gold (it’s very yellow, as opposed to 14k). There are just too many of them to photograph and put up on eBay all at once, but I’m heading in that direction. You might want to market my Modernist Pendants, Ancient Style rings and earrings, and more. Inquire of me if you’re at all interested. Stock can cost anywhere from about $100 up to whatever you want to fling in the face of fortune.

In addition, I’ve waded into my library of 7,000 volumes, and pulled out more than half for sale; here are the details: Continue reading
