This is my second post on MIchael Jackson. I've had his music around all my life. I've heard about him forever, since as early as 1969, ABC was one of my first 45. (My very very first 45 was Rock On). He crossed over the racial barriers, and I dind't think about him as black. I've never thought of him that way. Thriller was great, is great. As I said before,I have the vinyl of it. As with Elvis, the mental picture of his death (obese, naked, dead, from drugs), I have a horrible picture in my mind of needle marks all over my body-(not heard form TMZ, mind you, but form soemthing else), but it's clouded with the greatness of Thriller,and the early songs like ABC.
But, can we compare Michael Jackson with Elvis? And how? Because of the billions of fans, the fame, the songs, the DANCING? Maybe. But we shouldn't compare the deaths, the drugs, the scandals, cause they are two different eras, and two different times. I refuse to listen to anything that monoplozies publicity of Michael's poor children. Heck,I lost my dad in January, and I can feel his lost, which channeling has helped,but I am 47. The little children of Michael Jackson are not OKAY, like Michael's father said. No way. We must'nt feed into that.
I do listen to TMZ, it is almost comedy, and I do credit them for hearing form them first, about Michael,and Farrah, and Billy Mays. I also listen to The View, and I watch Entertainment Tonight. I do not pay attention to Access Holllywood,it is often on for noise,and it makes me cringe so bad,that today, I turned it off. Am I still a bit shocked by Michael Jackson's death? Probably. It's freaky. When his complete autopsy comes back, the turth will be there,and it will be huge.
Michael Jackson
We expected farrah Fawcett to pass, we knew she would, and it's not a surprise, to anyone, but Ryan Oneal, so it seems.
Why do we stay so glued to these stories, regaurding Michael Jackson? Frankly,I lost interest in him when he got weird. I grew away from him after Thriller, which I own, still, on vinyl. Thriller is amazing. It's still amazing.
Despite of personal unfeeling towards Michael Jackson,and a slight concern for his kids, I still felt shocked when I got a tmz.com message on my blackberry at 4:30 today, stating, "Michael Jackson suffered cardiac arrest today." Then, right after that,I got a text from CNN stating the same thing,then,I turned the t.v. on, and it was confirmed that he was in a coma,then, confirmed he died. Yet, it's not like, Travis Barker when he got burned. That was awful. That was one of the worse things. That was tragic. And God forbid if anything would ever happen to Metallica or Bruce Springsteen. So,I feel different with Michael Jackson. It's my curiousity.I want to watch TMZ tonight. But, watching TMZ is something I always do. I usually read the website, but tonight I am reading it a bit more.
The first cause I thought was drugs. I thought it'd be worse drugs than zoloft and xanax, heck, I take zoloft and xanax, but not habitually. So,normally, stars who die as such,I never loose the visual picture, of them, taking too many drugs. I do that with Elvis, it's not a pretty picture.
So, maybe people will argue with me, but after Thriller, something began to happen with MIchael Jackson,and his near insanity that the media painted of him, made me not like him. His death, though, is odd. Because I'm curious, but in a sick manner. But now I find my interest in the autopsy. And,I really can't voice opinions until after that. I guess to say it as, "I feel sad", is true.

Dad
In June of 1985, my dad and I lived together, in Blue Springs, MO. He asked me,then, to write his eulogy, which, now, I've just almost have written.He died in January of 2009,and I've not had his memorial yet. It will be full military,and I can probably do the funeral myself, or have the funeral home do it. I am ordained, myself.
To pass the time, about every week, while he was in the hospital between August-January 22nd, 2009,I took pictures of him. I'm very thankful I did it. Yes I took the last picture of him, as well. It's in my Blackberry, and he'd not want people to see him in that manner. So, here's a blog post, to my dad.
He was born on 12/11/1929, in Blue Springs, MO, to Leo and Mildred. He is the oldest of 3 boys: Riley, the Uncle Butch. I suspect that he was either born at home, or in a hospital. Grandpa worked in a warehouse, and grandma worked in a machine embroidery company. My dad went to Blue Springs Highschool. He joined the military and fought in the Korean war. He met my mom,and they got married in 1952. They moved to Anchorage, Alaska, due to military duty.
In April, of 1962, they adopted me. I was born in March. They went to the Critteton Center, and picked me out of all the babies there. When I got home,I had 2 bird dogs, Saint and Angel. The dogs got large, and were sold, and dad bought a dachshund, named Babe. About this time, grandpa, bought the cabin at the Lake of the Ozarks.
(I'll type more later. I don't like too large of Blog post.)
The Subliminal Message of Tempt
I went to Nature's Pantry two days ago, and bought a whole lot of healthy food, including Tempt Ice cream, made with hemp milk, and hemp nuts. I bought the cocunut lime, which I really like.
Then, I thought about it,and checked, that unfortunatley, they have removed the THC of the hemp plant. All jokes aside, the product rocks.
OMG, it is good, it has cocunut, toasted, with a hint of lime. The hemp milk makes a false cream consistency. And I'm in a good mood, so I think it's sublimininal. Infact, I'm watching the weather,and it's down right funny. There is no way you can get high off this stuff, but yet, it's funny. Cow's milk gives me asthma, and I don't think this ice cream will. But my question is, how much of this would you have to eat, to get really stoned out of your mind? Think about it.
It shall always have a place in my freezer.
Ten Minute Psychic Readings
In 2009, everything is faster, food, cars, internet, cable, your job expects you to be more productive, work faster. So, while working psychic services such as asknow.com, I've noticed they have 10 minute psychic calls. I find that process kind of sad, when, the psychic gets paid .20 a minute, and the caller is charged 4.69 a minute. Do your math, for 10 minutes, the caller pays 50.00, the psychic gets 2.00 of it.
Asknow.com expects you to not come to a conclusion in those 10 minutes of time. I find that horrendous. When infact, it often takes 10 minutes to tap into someone's energy field, but with a simple three card tarot card draw, it can be done in 10 minutes, with a quick conclusion.
Because I like for each reading I give, to be a type of a gift, to the consumer, and the fact taht I've never had a personal reading done to me before, but I know I havre the gift to do it, I'm conscious of the 10 minute factr. I choose to come to a conclusion, at 9:30 minutes.
I choose to make each reading I give, a gift to them, cause they pay a hell of alot of money. So,I've decided to set my own price, 5.00 for email reaidngs, 10.00 for phone readings under 15 minutes. Over 15 minutes, add 2.00 per every five minutes, paid ahead of time. Which would be about 15.00 for a bout 30 minutes.That's a hell of a lot more fair than 50.00 for 10 minutes, being cut off in the middle of a phone coversation, and the psychic only earnig .20-.30 a minute.
Business cards
While at Rockfest,I got an idea to get business cards, after I got creditials. Here's a picture of my template. Here's a bit aobut the artist:

I'm going to put them up at both metaphysical bookstores, and carry them with me.
Essay for Doctorate of Metaphysics
It always is fascinating when I read about the ego in metaphysics. I am always reminded of when I first listened to Eckhart Tolle, on Oprah Winfrey, regarding the book A New Earth.
By now we know that the ego, is part of our energy body, and it is, infact, a false self. While it is easy to become mindful of our own egotistical mannerisms, it is not easy to break them. Many times, we become attached to a pattern of using the word, “I” or “mine”. Lesson 2 teaches that The ego is the part of us that says I’m me and you’re you. It also reiterates that a strong, balanced ego is necessary for getting along in this world. The hidden goal, in this life, is to create a balance between our strong ego, necessary for getting along in this world, and the other ego, that causes sudden success in the mind, then failure.
The over-inflated ego causes us to be judgmental. We must create a deflation by abolishing old patterns. The patterns are habits, which began at a younger age, or are embedded into our intellect by examples from outside forces, such as media. I’m never one to say that media is a poor influence, it isn’t, but if used incorrectly, it can be, if allowed. Over-inflated egos cause rambling thoughts, and loudness in the cerebellum area of the brain. We can abolish older patterns that attach the over-inflated ego, by exercises. If an exercise is completed over a period of twenty-one days, it becomes a habit, or a way of thinking.
One great way of demolishing the judgmental ego, is by stopping the overuse of the word “I”. The example used here will be, “I’ve earned my doctorate in metaphysics. I’ve studied for over ten years. I will display the certificate that I earned during the twenty week course of studying. I feel that I’ve accomplished something that the average person does not accomplish, which infact, I have.” The ego becomes more judgmental, accusing the general population of being not as intelligent. That is the normal pattern of thought. Eventually, the ego takes over, causing the person to become more omnipotent. This is habitual.
As metaphysicians, we don’t speak of ourselves as greatness, as in the above paragraph states. We speak of ourselves in a smaller form, but nonetheless greater or lesser than anyone else, or equal. Others then, can emulate our mannerisms, and it becomes a transmittable, oral decree. By way of example, we pass the habit to others. This deflates the ego that chooses to be Right. This stops the demanding. Just by not using the word “I”.
We must be mindful of our words, if we choose to carry ourselves in the correct manner. We can still hold our head high, and be aware of all surroundings, and be present, but without the ego disruption. Now, when we explain our professional attributes, we can say, “I’m hanging my doctorate of metaphysics certificate on the wall. It took me ten years to go this route. My words will emulate what was learned. It’s called leading by example.”
To prevent an under-inflated ego, we must also be very mindful, and create balance. Again, this has to do with thoughts and then, words. Our ego wants us to be saddened, to be grieved in situations that require us to be grieved. Our under inflated ego wants us to carry feelings of depression and guilt in our heads, infact, it works to force us to believe ill-standing poor self esteem that the under-inflated ego possesses.
As a metaphysics counselor of personal goals and grief, (actually, a very long title for Intuitive Counselor of Metaphysics), my goal is to teach the aspect of not holding onto grief, but letting go of the ego that presents itself in those feelings. To make a list of personal goals, and helping someone get to those goals by counseling and even tapping into energies not known to the one uneducated in this field, will help others with under inflated egos. Meditation, and thought patterns are mindful abilities that help, also.
People become self absorbed, and this in turn damages the healthy ego. Our place as metaphysicians is to lead others by being less absorbed, and in turn, the transformation, in lesson 2, can become reality. Seeing through spiritual eyes is a great goal. Developing our third eye area is part of our spiritual eye, and we can show others and demonstrate our knowledge by not becoming self absorbed.
The world is now open for us to turn the under-inflated or over-inflated egos of the earth, into balanced, quiet of rambling thoughts, thinking from higher mind, individuals. Imagine the shift this can create!

Smelly People
I do site visits to hospitals and clinics. Yesterday was anormal day for me, I did a couple of site visits, hit Vera bradley's store, where there was a 40% off sale, and ate at Jose Pepper's and went home. After, I made my listsings on www.asknow.com (228682 ext., and read my emails.
Both clinics I visited, the staff were discussing people who might smell bad. See if their opnions are the same as yours!
Mathew McConaguey. (Personally, I don't think he smells at all,I think he's kind of hot, but it was of the opinion of an entire office staff, that he probably smells bad.)
David Carradine. this is due to the fact that his hair looked greasy, and he wasn't of very good upkeeping, not the fact that they found him in a closet....you know the rest of the story.
Axle Rose: he is always sweaty, therefore, he probably smells.
Roseanne Barr: Because she's kind of not clean.
Whoopie Goldberg: Cause she looks like a man.
Those are the main five of the smelliest people. The one's least likely to smell are:
Barack Obama: He's very well groomed, and always clean shaven. He probably smells like Axe or Tag.
Bruce Springsteen: See above, except he's a bit more rugged.
Sandra Bullock: She's so sweet, and pretty.
Anne Hathaway: No way does she smell bad. She probably smells of lucky or Carol's Daughter.
Eckart Tolle: He is the most groomed man I've ever seen in my life, he is beyond Axe and Tag. He's more Holister or even Burberry.
Well, I've done my name dropping for the day. Enjoy, and remember, these are opinions of others, not mine. Personally, I don't know these people, and I believe that 17 year old boys smell worse than any human ever.
Advice and Clairvoyance
I've decided to help others, and use my skills I've developed from my metaphysical studies, and become a Keen Adviser. It's not my main job, my main job makes money, this is just something fun to do,that I will find meaningful.
I've been able to see spirits, or whisps for a long time. I have spirit guides who help me,and I believe they want me to help others through this skill. I actually need another blog for it, but I want it to be an entrecard abled blog. I've gotten so much from Entrecard,and I love this blog. this is my main blog, and I like what I've done with it. But, this blog is for my crafts, and politics things, like that. I thought my Today.com blog would earn me money,but instead I lost interst. You can't do anything with them. I didn't make a dime. This is the one that gets readers.
So, wish me luck on my new adventure, call my number to the side, after I'm approved, I'll let you all know.

If I Were A Snuggy
(I did not make a snuggie, this is how I'd do it. My mom ordered snuggies, and they could be improved.)
If I were a Snuggy
I'd be made a little thicker,
with a little better fleece.
I'd be shaped a little wider
at the neckline, with
a little narrow sleeves,
I'd be sewn for
someone 5 foot tall
so that it would not drag the floor,
like a wedding gown or king's robe.
If I were a snuggy
I'd be all different colors,
not just blue and burgundy
I'd be wider at the neck,
so that both sides actually meet!
If I were a snuggy,
I'd would tell you how to create
a snuggy just like me,
anyone can make one
if they have a sewing machine!!!!!!!
Just take a few yards, of good quality, fun printed fleece from Hobby Lobby. Seperate about a yard.
Put it on the floor.
Lay on it, and trace your self.
Cut it out,and sew a once inch seam allowance on each end, then measur3e your arms,and cut the sleeve a bit wider. Put the right sides together, at the sleeves end,and sew it. Don't forget to sew the raw edges of the sleeves.
There you've made a snuggy
doo be doobe doo be doo be doo
Now wear it around the house
and dance and sing,
while wearing your snuggy
that you made!
take
