OK, so i'm on the way home from my appointment and i pass a car stopped in an on-coming lane and see the driver walking toward the gas station holding his gas can thingy, so i swing around and pick him up.
He's thanking me profusely & all the usual stuff. After he gets gas, we head back to his car and i jokingly say with a smile, "i almost didn't help you after i saw that Clemson tag on the front of your car!" <laughs>. (i am a USC fan even though i've never watched a game) Well! He actually got offended and sort of sputtered and didn't say anything else, and when i pulled up behind his car he got out, slammed the car door and stomped away without looking back! i had to laugh! :hangloose: Dang Clemson up-tights! :nixon: |

I have a new (old as hell) car!!!
It has rust real bad but is mechanically sound as can be. I think I'm going to name her Victoria 'cause she's an old Crown Victoria. I tend to pet her as I walk by to get in... :| |

I think that behavior modification can be useful---BUT, it can also be so painfully simplistic and even cruel...I used to write BM programs...detailed and intense programs for patients who were felt to be incapable of self awareness so the 'goal' was to change the target behaviors, those which were causing the most day-to-day problems...the programs took forever to develop and write...then had to go through a strict committee approval process...there was something disturbingly superior and othering about the whole experience...I didn't like it, although since I can be crazy detailed and analytical, I did a good job...
it's simplistic to think that by forcing someone to change a behavior that the underlying cause is remediated...I think that there may well be whole other behaviors which arise to replace the modified ones...kind of like squishing those balls which redistribute the jell inside as it's compressed in different places... that is my random yap for this morning as I randomly think on things... |
Working on my paper that's due next week and hitting a wall. :deepthoughts:
Must concentrate. Must not let the repulsive child next to me, who can't seem to chew with her mouth closed as bits of her bagel fall out of said masticating mouth, distract me. ARGH!!!!!! |

Sweden, Harrang, claims to have the largest African American France camp in the world. A dance troupe, The Rhythm Hot Shots, put it on. Or, at least Leonard from the group does. I went for two weeks. We came from all over the world. Filled the town Amazing. Other news... My female parrot is in season. She would rather kiss me than eat :rubberducky: :canadian: |
So ok went to Temple for Selichot prayers which we are supposed to say until Friday, Judaism is very mystical I just found out but it was nice and I'm glad I went..have a great night everyone I'm going to watch TV and go to bed I'm tired...
|
P.S. the troupe is on YouTube. Check them out doing Lindy Hop. They learned, initially by watching old movies, like A Day at the Races. Later, they learned from Harlem born dancer and choreographer, Frankie Manning, who also, along with Steven Mitchell, taught me. Frankie and Stevens are on the tube, too. In case you get curious. And, yeah, I could dance that fast ... not more than one, now, or call 911. Lol

In Canada, we have paid parental leave for close to a year (50 weeks) where 55% of one's average insured earnings (max $43 200=$457/week). More fathers are taking part of this parental leave than in the past. FYI:The United States is the only Western country that does not mandate paid parental leave, although the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 mandates unpaid parental leave for the majority of American workers. (wiki) P.S. Hope Dory isn't too painful! Cute name for a bruise! |

I call September the month of birthdeath.....my daughter was born on August 30th (close enough) and died on September 27th. My father was born on September 5th & died on September 30th.....
I was having an interesting discussion about death with a dear, dear friend...and I likened the death of one's child like being in a theatre.....and when one loses a child, You walk up the steps to the mezzanine level. Sure there may be a few others up there with You, but the majority of folks are down in the lobby....milling about....carrying on conversations with one another. Losing a child takes a parent to a different level of understanding about death. It's a different flavor altogether than having lost a parent or cousin or uncle or grandparent. (I'm not writing this for pity....truly. I'm really ok! <smile> I find death and grief intriguing, actually.) |
I'm smiling my seriously sweet smile right now...
