Definition of philanthropy

 

def.: A philanthropist changes the world for the better. Every parent is a potential philanthropist. Your child (might) make the world a different and slightly better place. (This a project for hundreds of millions. Baby steps are beautiful, just some are bigger than others. Google is a baby step at heart.)

TRUE CURES

Sheena gave Mary a laser and Gail teleportation powers; I just get stink waves

our house in France could be your house in France

That's a flock of 2 dozen wild turkeys pecking from yard to yard next door

the neighbor's cows and the view toward our home (hidden behind the trees), our neighbor's hay, my favorite pumpkin farmer's crop, my pumpkin crop, at our house you'll wash your hands in this guest bathroom

An itty-bit of a song

 

I've always been a Buddhist

A Buddhist with a crown

A Catholic who's a clown

A Baptist who's about to drown

Hand me that bag my darling

'Fraid I'm moving on

'Fraid I'm going down

'Fraid you're not mine

Yet I wish I wish you were

I wish I wish you were

So much I wish you were

 

 

It's a windy day on the fringe of storm Hermine

Taking on jet lag

On the drive back from Boston, after our cross-Atlantic flight from Dublin's annoying airport, we stopped at our pharmacy to pick up some facial masks. You wash, and then apply and the secret substances in the paper soak in, substances like Dead Sea clay and green tomato essence, and the mask revives the soul you never see except in mirrors and photos: your face.
