I did not want it but got hit by Eros' Arrow and wrote this;

I forgot to tell you about the fearlessness. It is so true. I have no cortisol or adrenaline. Epinephrine makes a person feel like they are being chased by lions or in freefall. My sensation is the opposite. I fear nothing and am totally shameless and bold. I also feel like I am levitating, not falling. My appetite has decreased so I have also lost some weight while gaining muscle mass. Another symptom presenting in this case is auditory synesthesia, hearing emotions as orchestrated beautiful music. Oh, I used to be a Toastmaster. I do know more about you than you know about me. I observed your speaking skills, poise, and leadership abilities in a social context. A couple of other symptoms are more vivid colors, spontaneous laughter at self, greatly lessened pain response, a ten-thousand percent increase in background libido, tears at poetry, and a greater appreciation of nature. I really should get a qualified medical diagnosis. What could it be?

And when she rejected me over my honesty, generosity, and vulnerability. I felt like I was in a 90 mph car crash that rolled five times. I had no idea what was wrong with me. None, only physical pain. Until I figured out that the removal of the arrow is twice as powerful and exactly the opposite of its strike. That was the cause. It is a barbed arrow after all. The gods are laughing at me for their set up, she is the most lovely person I have ever met. I was safe in my shell. Like a distant islander, I had no immunity, now I do. I am up with my booster against it. The down side of amorosity is so much worse that worth it to venture. My foolish foolish heart.

Happy Valentines.

good vado or puppy love,tried it once-never again( minnie five ' is a great comfort in these situations) my heart became much more elastic after the ensueing depression/

An 🏝 never cries

This song aughta cheer you up?

John Denver died when he ran out of gas, reached around behind him to flip it to reserve fuel, accidentally jammed the rudder on full, and spiraled into the ocean.
He died from blunt force trauma.

He wasn't fearless or stupid, but you should take a course in Ergonomics if you're going to build your own plane.

Putting the reserve fuel valve switch behind your seat is a bad .

his geography was way off( the things he lists are very rare in"west by gosh stole from VA) I heard he wrote that song on a trip going to WVa from the southern coast,guess he made a "Wrong turn"( what you say? no its a thing)

 

[kevinmccune]

Hearing emotions must be incredible and scary, you can hear colours as well and taste sound etc.
Just one long acid drop.
But of course if everyone had synethesia and you developed normal senses, people would be saying
Omg she can hear sounds!!!

had an orgasm in "technicolor" one evening,no drugs involved(its never happened since) the taste was about the same as always.

I think that I have gained some immunity from the experience, which I was susceptible and woefully unprepared.

From a comment on a Guardian travel article:

A friend (we'll call him Tom cos that's his name) and his new girlfriend actually ran into GC [George Clooney] in a restaurant over there [in Italy].

He saw George go the Gents and followed him a minute or two later.

Whilst washing their hands, pal says 'Hi George, I wonder could you do me a big favour ?'

'Sure, what it is it ?'.

'Just come up to our table and say 'Hi Tom, haven't seen you for a while'. How's things ?' It would really impress her'.

10 minutes later this comes to pass and George passes their table and says those words.

Tom replies back -

'Piss off, George. Can't you see I'm busy ?'

I get how it's a good idea to keep the fuel and electronics separate, and Not run the fuel line through the instrument panel, but they could have put the reserve fuel switch/valve somewhere where it's easier to reach.

I remember one of the first applications of ergonomics was in a fighter jet, where the eject lever was right beside the parking brake lever.
After more than a couple pilots launched themselves onto the tarmac, they decided to move the emergency eject lever.
I think they painted it red or yellow too?

He' s still my favorite singer

Our teacher got the class to sing this song when I was in grade 4 in 1974
We spent a couple weeks practicing and singing the song.

John Denver: The Untold Story of a Vietnam Sniper

Of course, such revelations of such a gentle pop singer being a vicious and calculating killer are shocking to some.

There was a huge scandal involving a NIXL, photo, and the Police in the little square where I work. A 65 year old cougar, struts dolled up in tight clothing, such as leopard pants, and swinging it in hot pink and stilettos or boots, stole a neon sign that said, 'Love All Ways.' She had trouble removing it and came to the bike shop to borrow a tool, the owner, my boss, offered to help her when she said that the previous tenant said that she could have it. He is the one who removed it and handed it to her. Property management has a video of it. The police interviewed my boss. We joke that she put it above her bed to include each of the ways she wants it.

Recognize Her? Woman Swipes $820 Neon Sign, Police Say

Police have not been able to identify her, but hope someone in the public can help them out.

Mr. Rodgers too. He was a commando who crept to slit necks ear-to-ear in the dark of night.

Kinda weird??

I loved watching Project Bluebook when I was a kid.
I remember the one episode where the V-shaped flying object turned out to be a flock of geese that were glowing for some reason?

I remember a million years ago (OK... 53, I was 15) working at a logging camp building truck bays for maintenance. I took my acoustic, and at night would play in my room and sing.
One night I figured out Denver's Country Roads song and was belting it out. Some guy knocked on the door, came in and said I did a bang up job on that.
I was shocked! 15 years old, and the first time anyone said I was worth listening to.
Never forgot that...

Deutchendorf rolls into Lubbock a year or two after Buddy Holly, also a pilot, died in an air crash. Coincidence?
Holly had recently recorded "Think it Over," obviously written by a woman, who was obviously Vi Petty, a concert pianist. Listen to her bang on the keys! She was pretty damned mad about Peggy Sue!
Darn, I can't make a link to that song on youtube.

When you're rich or famous enough to afford your own plane and fly it yourself, the chances of dying in a plane crash go Way up.

JFK junior would still be alive if he was an ordinary private pilot, because there's No Way they would have allowed a regular pilot to fly a plane at night without an IFR license.

Think of all the plane and helicopter crashes that involve rules being bent for the famous who need to get where their going on private planes and helicopters?

say it isn't so! don't think I want him to be my neighbor.bet his conscience was buzzing more than the Apostle Paul's.

the v shaped things are real and why did they need to send the ebris from a weather balloon to WP? I used to believe the official report until they kept changing the story,eg; the crash test dummies were supposed to explain the small curious bodies,trouble was they didn't start using those things until about 1952,that night there were 2 crashes,one must remember why this base was such an attraction to begin with it was the first and only atomic bomb base in the world at the time.If you want to hear something really weird the techs and officers at the missle silos are instructed to park a pickup over the cover on the missile silos to hopefully prevent an unauthorized launch,it was hoped the missile would fly erratically and crash not starting ww3.

I watched a documentary in the 80's where a guy being interviewed said when he was about 7 years old, his dad (who was an officer in Roswell just after the crash) came home with a flat piece of shiny tin-foil like material, but when he crunched it up in his hand and let go, the tin foil sprung back to it's original shape without a wrinkle.

The next day it was confiscated and the child was told not to speak of it.

Then we invented shiny plastics, Saran Wrap replaced Cellophane, and by the 70's urethane wheels replaced the stone (age) wheels on my skateboard so sidewalk surfers could stick to the sidewalks better.

I took the stone wheels and trucks off a roller skate and made my own skateboard in 1977.

This is the first skateboard from 1978 that I bought after the homemade skateboard experiment.
And my current rollerskates with only the original wheels from 1979.
Everything has been replaced except the wheels.

PS,.. Don't rollerskate in the rain.
The boot staples aren't stainless steel. They rusted out and the boot fell apart.

Ive seen those boots on Victorian ladies.
