I want I want - I feel like the Veruca Salt in Willy Wonka.

Can I put my beaver next to your pole?

We need to have a strong injunction against judging others. And that means on all levels including what pets people like, how people like to eat, hobbies, religion, politics, etc.

Hmmph

This is a link to a Sufi Community near me: The Abode of The Message

"Categories of Residence

There are three categories of residence at the Abode, and each has its own responsibilities. All three categories include a requirement of three hours per week of Karma Yoga. Residents must also participate in community work days, which occur one Saturday morning per month, when residents join together to complete necessary maintenance tasks and other seasonal projects.

Rent-paying Resident The Abode rents both rooms and apartments on the main campus.
Khidmat Work Study is a tradition that allows you to study the Sufi “path of the heart.” We ask for 25 hours of service per week, in exchange for room and board, and a dedication of 10 hours per week of Sufi studies designed by you and a chosen mentor to reflect your spiritual interests.
Hands and Heart Work Exchange is named in honor of our site’s Shaker heritage. Come experience our community while putting “hands to work and hearts to God.” This program requires 30 hours of service per week and in return we’ll provide you with room and board."

i read that as "no copperheads, bugs the size of your head, TOMATOES or humidity"

but i see that it said "tornadoes." Does that mean there WILL be tomatoes? Bleck.
