Are elephants really afraid of mice?

ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -
--------------
Were there differences between Einstein's brain and
the average brain?
Scientists found some anomalies, including the fact that
one particular part of Einstein's brain, the part responsible
for mathematical thought and the ability to think in terms of
space and movement, was much wider than the average
brain. For Einstein, size apparently DID matter. Einstein's
brain was also missing a groove that usually runs through
this area, leading scientists to speculate that the absence
of a groove allowed the neurons in his brain to communicate
better. Einstein also had more glial cells for every neuron
in his brain, as well as a higher density of neurons. No one
really knows what all this means.
Where is Einstein's brain NOW?
Dr. Thomas Harvey, the pathologist who originally took
Einstein's brain, cut the brain in 240 pieces and gave several
to various researchers. However, he kept most of the brain
with him when he moved to New Jersey. In 1996, he gave
the remaining brain to Dr. Elliot Krauss, chief pathologist
at Princeton Hospital.

Here's To Think On ...
with Ken Darby
-----------------
Is It Ego? Or Clear Thinking?
A radical feminist is getting on a bus when, just in front of
her, a man gets up from his seat.
She thinks to herself, "Here's another man trying to keep up the
customs of a patriarchical society by offering a poor,
defenseless woman his seat," and she pushes him back onto the
seat.
A few minutes later, the man tries to get up again. She is
insulted again and refuses to let him up.
Finally, the man says, "Look, lady, you've got to let me get up.
I'm two miles past my stop already!"
Well, there you go. Here the woman thought she had a grip
on the truth and, in fact, it was her ego that had a grip on her.
Call it ego, call it pride. It is too often the thing that gets in the
way of clear thinking.
Such is the nature of man. For some reason he is always
thinking he has to prove himself to others. What foolishness.
It comes from insecurity, from not being confident with oneself.
These same people are the ones who have to be kept busy
shopping, or have the television or radio on, or are always
talking, or who have to sleep with the lights on. They do not
have sufficient self confidence to live with themselves. These
are the ones who will always try to prove their worth.
I know people who feel they must justify their every act. They
fail to understand that it is all right to do something just
because you want to do it and that you don't need to explain
that to anyone.
As cowboy logic puts it, "Never miss a good chance to shut up."
That's right. Why don't you just keep quiet once in a while to
observe what is going on. You don't have to contribute to every
conversation or everything that is happening. When you sit and
observe you will learn - lots, and you will be asked to participate
when they want you. It gets to be a treat when you no longer
try to prove things. Life gets better for you and everyone
around you.
Keep your ego under control and navigate your way with
good clear thinking. The rewards you seek will come faster.
Your ego is no friend, ever. Only clear thinking is your ally.
So watch and ask ...
Is It Ego? Or Clear Thinking?

Who’s In Charge Here? Thinking About Our
Body’s Healthy Maintenance
PART 4 of 10
Water is a really good way to get rid of toxins in the
body. Your body is made up of 9 interrelated systems,
all working together to keep you healthy. Our culture
insists we take drugs, yet these are contributing to or
interacting with, all the chemicals already in the body
from our natural everyday living. This list is
incomplete, but it gives enough of an overview for our
purposes.
One major underlying thought or principle is that all
parts of your body are connected or interrelated. Know
that if one part is affected, the entire body is
affected. You may hear that it isn’t true, but I
challenge you to only walk around with legs, and no
head. You won’t get far! (I could tell you several
cases where you would think this isn’t the case, but
eventually the body stopped functioning because its
physiology came to a halt.)
Let’s start with a brief overview of your body. Please
know I am only going to focus on the physical aspect. I
truly and firmly believe we have a spiritual or
intangible, invisible side to our lives, but that would
be another article. But I do support the concept that
you choose your own outcomes through choosing a
negative or a positive attitude. Some people tell me
they are “realistic”. I see them as choosing not to
look outside their own understanding. That is fine for
them…but not for everyone. I try to show people that
they should be looking for the underlying problem.
Their resulting symptoms are simply an outcome of
those. Your body is a physical visible “entity”. But it
is ‘run” by invisible elements which are equally
important. So you can’t dismiss things that are not
seen by the naked eye. We can now actually into
different parts or organs of your body through
technology. And this is vitally important in
diagnosing. The physical space and equipment of your
office can be compared to the systems and organs of
your body as the anatomy. But you yourself know it is
the policies and procedures and “management” that
“rules” or drives the office. So it is with the body’s
physiology.

THE NET'S BEST KEPT SECRET
<><><><>
THE SAGA OF PINEHILL
by Ken Darby
--------------------------------------
Eloise Henry, age 18 when the story began
and David Wylie, age 20, were selected by a
stranger in town to take a dangerous trip,
together. The idea was that each was to take
only the clothes on their back and go
anywhere in the world where the stranger
took them. They were to be left there to find
their own way home. They had no money,
no identification, and no idea where they
were. If they arrived back home, there
would be a million dollars waiting in each
of their bank accounts
The story deals with their adventures along
and leads to the only way they could survive.
The story leads to many friends, many
adventures and many places.
As you read enjoy. It continues . . . . . . .

"Good, then lets stay, maybe an hour and we'll
meet the folks." Tim was already walking towards
Eloise's and Mazunta's hut. Sure enough the family
was sitting on the ground having supper.
"Tim" Eloise jumped up and came running to him
and hugged him. "I didn't expect you back so soon.
You just left. Where is Sharon? This must be
Sharon's Dad, right?"
"That's right, Eloise, this is Bob Smithson.
Bob, this is my sister Eloise. Are you hungry?"
"Hello, Eloise. No, Tim, I just ate." Bob was
in a state of bewilderment. This kind of thing had
never happened to him before and he was having a
hard time believing it.
"Hello Bob. Good of you to join us. Come, sit
and let's talk. Can I get you something to drink?
We have a fine fruit beverage I think you'll
like." Sam Henry had read the scene and knew
immediately what was up. He stepped in and took
charge, as was Sam's way where his kids needed
help.
"I'll have some juice, I guess."
"Good. Alewka? Well Bob, It's good that you
could come. I'll bet you don't believe it even
now. I'll bet Sharon told you where she was and
you didn't believe her, am I right?"
"Sorta, Sam. I am bewildered. Where are we?"
"You are in South America, Bob at a village
where my daughter and her husband live. David and
Pamela Wiley also live here, as does Mae Wiley,
whom you must have read about. She's away for now
but she lives here in her own hut next to David
and Pam's."
"Tim told me that we were in South America,
but I didn't believe him."
"Bob, that is why he had to bring you here. He
could not tell you he was here with Sharon. You
would not believe him any more than you believed
Sharon. That's it isn't it? You didn't believe her
and you had a fight?"
"That's it Sam. I just couldn't come to
believe that people can travel like this."
'What do you believe now, Bob?"
"I'll have to believe it. I'm here. I just
don't understand it I guess."
"That's right. Tim will explain it to you
sometime, but believe it, Sharon and Tim were here
the last two days. In fact we had quite a
celebration at the community fire for them. It was
wonderful."
Alewka had long brought Bob his drink. He
sipped away at it and enjoyed it very much. He was
also being bathed in love emanating from all
present. "I just don't understand, Sam. How is all
this possible?"
"It is because of higher law, Bob. Once you
know the laws and understand them, but more
importantly, believe in them, then you can do many
things. They are the same laws that permitted us
to work in downtown Pinehill when that explosion
hit. For the moment though, it might be easier for
you to relax and realize you don't have to
understand them. All you need know is that when
one lives by higher law one can put laws to work
that man, momentarily, doesn't understand. Think
of it mush like electricity. I'll bet you don't
really know what electricity is, or how it works,
yet you do know how to turn on a light switch and
that is all that matters. Here too. Just accept it
and leave it at that. I am quite sure you will be
seeing more of it in your future. Sharon crossed
the veil of simplicity and now lives by higher
law. You would do well to encourage her, love her
and let her find her own way. You raised her well,
Bob. She is a bright and upstanding girl. You
should be proud of her."
"I...I guess so. I'm just bewildered, thats
all."
"Sure you are. You have never before been
directly confronted with higher law. No one that
you know outside us has anything to do with higher
law. It is never discussed, practised, even
thought about. Why wouldn't you be bewildered?"
"I guess I'll just have to accept the fact
there are such laws and that men can know them and
practice them."
"That would be good. And without feeling any
obligation unto your ownself, come to realize that
Sharon, or others in your family have a right to
learn them and live by them. Once one learns
higher law, Bob, they will never again want for
anything. They can manifest all they need. You
will be fine with that Bob. Just give yourself
some time to come to grips with it."
"I'll try, Sam."
"Mr. Smithson would you like to see the Amazon
river?" Tim thought that while he was here Bob
might as well see some sights.
"Is it far?"
"Oh! Maybe a block, not even."
"Yeah, that would be neat."

ODE TO SPELL CHECKERS
I have a spelling checker

Miss steaks aye can knot see.

My checker tolled me sew.
A checker is a blessing.
It freeze yew lodes of thyme.
It helps me right awl stiles two reed,
And aides me when aye rime.
Each frays comes posed up on my screen
Eye trussed too bee a joule.
The checker pours o'er every word
To cheque sum spelling rule.
Bee fore wee rote with checkers
Hour spelling was inn deck line,
Butt now when wee dew have a laps,
Wee are not maid too wine.
And now bee cause my spelling

There are know faults in awl this peace,
Of nun eye am a wear.

Of witch won should be proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaws are knot aloud.
That's why eye brake in two averse
Cuz Eye dew want too please.
Sow glad eye yam that aye did bye
This soft wear four pea seas.
