(That’s assuming they like Norm, of course.). I have heard several Hyden masses (the “Lord Nelson” and St. Nicholas) done as masses, and you are right, it is a very different sense. Israeli progressive rock group Atmosphera recorded a 16-minute epic named "Lady of Shalott" about the ballad. There is courting, and it has rules – though those of us who are Odd tend to not get them unless they’re written on the inside of our eyelids – so we have to contrive our own approximations) – there is marriage, there are children, and then there’s death, with its own rituals. At least the Lady of Shalott wasn’t trying to govern those people out there that she knew only from glimpses and longing. You pick a breeding version or you don’t.

I’ve thought of ritual as a way of marking your place in time as well as space, both secular time and sacred time (for those who believe). But after fourth grade, when most of my classmates when to work in the textile factory, and others went to the local middle/high school, mom decided (having looked at scores) that my only hope at college was to go to a magnet school downtown as my brother had done. Last year, I got so angry I could spit nails, because someone was posting a video and claiming animal abuse in large “industrial” farms, but based on the quality of the video and the fact that I knew that such practices had already been through the wringer a long time ago, I’m pretty sure it was a recycled video from the ’70s. Nope, I was quietly but firmly friendzoned by every girl at my high school…. It’s another task to keep track of, but there’s times in my life those canned veggies have made the difference between ten dollars to eat ramen noodles for a week and good vegetable soup that’s actually worth eating (and using that ten bucks for gas rather than walking to work). We cut through all the ritual before we had a chance to try it!

And then there was the old mating game. Poulson says that sleep has a connotation of physical abandonment and vulnerability, which can either suggest sexual fulfillment or be a metaphor for virginity.

Sometimes it doesn’t work.

Good cloths that can be used for diapers– there’s some really nice terrycloths that would be great for wrapping-style diapers, since I don’t expect safety pins will catch on much. My provisional root cellar is a couple of sterilite tubs lined with newspaper and stored in a room with a window air conditioner. In fact, I’m suspecting that Sarah wouldn’t object to the term ‘person of melanin’ as long as no insult was intended. Their theory tells them they are on their way to paradise, but things keep getting worse. She leaves her tower, finds a boat upon which she writes her name, and floats down the river to Camelot.

Hm, my family always used blocks because they’re so much easier to put out– we supplement our cows with them– but this might be a smart thing for folks who want to try out salt-curing: in pain, though.

Until our *other* friends, giggling madly, informed him he would have to tell me or I’d never know. We buy wood a half cord at a time and have a large stack of it in the back yard. By the time we met, I think both of us knew this was a done deal. Oh geez– I had just set my coffee cup down when I read THIS. When Sarah mentioned the Lady of Shalott, my mind leapt immediately to The Mirror Crack’d From Side To Side. One does have to remember *why* Marx referred to religion as “the opiate”.

I’m not disagreeing, of course; only pointing out that unless the ritual is clearly understood on both sides, it can lead to a holocaust of misunderstanding.

I love Loreena McKennitt.

[citation needed], Tennyson's early poetry, with its medievalism and powerful visual imagery, was a major influence on the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. I’ve seen mint described as “invasive”. The latter is dangerously close to evolving sentience. to take a glimpse at life, for forgetting her work and her duty Now this isn’t necessarily bad, I use chicken manure or cow/horse manure on my own garden, I do admit to having a gag reflex though when driving past fields in the valley where I grew up and the are covering them in the sludge from the sewer plant (which has a distinctive and unmistakeable odor).

It was an odd start to our relationship, but I think it worked pretty well, on the whole. LOL. Exactly. Once you’re in the friendzone, you’re not relationship material, at least if you’re a guy.

They might last the rest of our lives. Ditto having a ton of chickens in a large area– lots of them will be pecked to death, and that would ruin a small chicken farm. Mind you I am a tool junkie, and like “stuff” as much as the next guy, but if you don’t have the experience to know how best to use all the “stuff” you have piled up, what good is it?

They are also selling purple and pink frying pans, BRIGHT purple and pink, and lime green. Do you know, I could buy it here, but I’m afraid they’ll dump it on top of Greebo. Actual scholarship may yield different results. Well, the biggest argument against some form of .22 magnum or other varient (.22 WMR, .17 HMR etc. ) reign of equality in poverty or not, the history of humanity shows that sooner or later sanity returns and the rituals of human life: plant and reap, marry and reproduce, die and be briefly remembered. If Mint does that, it’s my new best friend. Doesn’t mean we don’t flirt — even if it’s with an implied promise nothing will ever happen. Apparently coffee is friendly, but a meal means a date with intent to repeat and possibly to move to second or third base, something I learned rather late in the game.

And they crossed themselves for fear, 2. Other than the absolute utter stupidity of the term? Some things are not worth the time to talk about. This HAS kind of been expanded to include some things that are synthesized, but only because they contain the same kinds of molecular chains as the others – most plastics are “organic”. Well you’re at the right place for it, there are plenty of us around here likely to volunteer all sorts of information whether anyone else has an interest or not. Er… I used that one too. And in the lighted palace near I’ve read something that claimed that most “stomach viruses” are actually food poisoning. According to Christine Poulson, the Crucifixion is the archetype of self-sacrifice and further emphasises the ideal that the Lady of Shalott fails to represent.

If you ever have to be bolted back together after a nasty fall and a worse break, you may be surprised at how important opiates can be while you heal. Waitaminute….

If they have nothing to offer me, why am I talking with them? for the equipment you have.

Oddly enough I just reviewed a book about the multiplicity of cultural symbols meanings.

I don’t buy anything that says “green” unless it has an additional inducement. We get the feeling that it is pure will power that prevents the “For those of you not conversant with the poem, it’s about a Fairy Lady living in her own enclosed space and looking at the world outside through the magic web she weaves.”. I have a replica of Waterhouse’s painting hanging on the wall behind my computer. But though my family was materially poor (not that we knew it) we were still massively wealthier than the people around us (often a matter of the use we put resources to) and we were also educated.

I hear it’s been causing early-onset puberty in children. If they can make humanity live their preferred way, they would be as gods, especially in a social climate that frowns on theism. And for good reason.). the poem is a Victorian version of “Jackie Blue?” (Ozark Mountain Devils)? Remeber, like the guy who wound up with a field of GM wheat, if you get tested positive you may be responsible for the entire region being banned from selling to Asia or Europe. The environmentalists didn’t want artificial Frankenstein seeds being able to breed and spread, so they demanded that Monsanto make them sterile. She tastes the fruit before the blossom falls, Honestly I think the method you are currently using is probably the best available to you.
