What I am discovering about myself is that all life is poetry, at least in the way I think about it. Creating depends on finding the Groove, the way that makes something real. There is always a Way. This video/process to me is not about my genius or craftiness. Other people could have done much better in much less time. For me it is more of a study of manifesting an idea, a thought into something that can exist on this material plane. And it was fun. For whatever reason I have found myself getting away from words and feeling an impulse toward stuff I can touch whether it be tomatoes or slingbows. I have ordered a beautiful handmade wooden one but it will be a month or so before it gets here. I did not want to wait that long to play. So I decided to see what I could do in the interim. May you walk in your Groove today. Be Groovy. 🙂

So how did the Ms. take the holes in the garage door? 😉 I appreciated your moment of silence for the tub. Perhaps you should have had a wake! You already had a bottle of ale there. 😀 Ok, so I was impressed when you shot the arrow into the other arrow and pushed it through the lizard. That’s perdy good shootin’ thar, Tex!!!
She hasn’t seen them. I think it was a lucky shot
You really are quite incorrigible, you know… I’ve said it all along! 😉 Really? A lucky shot? You look pretty dern good at that to me.
I can fix it. I do need practice if I’m gonna hit the fish
You were perdy brave with that wild lizard, pardner. 😉
Right on brother
TWO-WAY STREET
Creation flows forth
In fresh illumination
Out there; in here too
🙂 I am so glad you stopped by to view my silliness.
Have a good day. 🙂
OML! I LOVE the storm!!! (It looked like there was a couple little pieces that was in there twice at 29.50/37.38.) What’s a D-loop string for again? K. didn’t mind you raiding her tupperware??? LOL Well if you get this all figured out, you’d better patent the thing and make your fortune! You sure are a jack of all trades, dude.
I’m retarded. 🙂 my ignorance knows no bounds. But its fun figuring stuff out. I realized the duplicate parts but it takes so long to up load they will have to remain as a testament to my lack of perfection. 🙂 sometimes a boy just has to get his Tupperware and deal with the consequences later.
“…sometimes a boy just has to get his Tupperware and deal with the consequences later.” LMBO! I’m just sitting here studying this card about deception/shrewdness being necessary sometimes and you provided a perfect example! See! It’s fate! And stop calling yourself “retarded”, you “tard!” You’re one of the smartest guys I know. I SERIOUSLY meant that about the patent. 😉
I claimed rights I the video. Its dated and published. My talk tiday was about the spirituality of slingbow making. 🙂
You know, I didn’t need to be clairvoyant to know that’s what it would be about. LOL How’d it go?
It w as fun. The guys said they liked it. Will have to wait and see
It’s not silliness you know. You’re creatively gifted.
Just want to know if that’s the same hammer you clubbed yourself in the head with? 😀 Very impressive, though I was just waiting for you to drop the heat gun into your lap. 😉 Have you finished and shot it yet? Loved the way you were practically OCD about your work bench but threw stuff on the floor. LOL Was fun to watch that side of you.
(Would have responded sooner but the gun fight from the end of “Quigley Down Under” was on right after your video. I got distracted. 😀 😉 Gotta love that Quigley!)
Yes that is the hammer of knowledge. I’ve shot it and broke the arrow rest. So I had to make another. I am still tweaking it. You just want to watch tom selleck
Well heck yes!!! I’d watch Tom Selleck sleep! For hours! 😀 Perhaps I should include The Hammer of Knowledge in Seeker? 😉
Yes! Knots on the head arewinderful teaching moments
I’ll have to check and see if it’s “in the cards!” 😉
The next installment includes shooting it at field and stream and a trip to the garden
Hm… Is it a comedy? 😉 The field and stream part I mean. <3 Looking forward to seeing the garden.
As funny as I am. 🙂
🙂 No, never. goofus. 😉
Its uploading now. Hopefully be done in the morning. Then tomorrow will do the guru thing. I have a part three. I shot again tonight and broke it again. Re-search. I will keep looking and figure out how to do it
Going to “take a shot” and say I have ever faith that you will figure it out. 🙂
Knowing is different than knowing about it. 🙂 takes alot if re-search. There is so much I did not know about it. But I would not have known what I did not know till I tried to know. 🙂
That is one of the themes of your life, is it not, your dudeship? (re-search, cute… 😉 )
Yes baby girl. Its fun and frustrating with many highs and lows
And that is the creative space where you thrive — fun and frustrating. You should have been a Gemini. 🙂
What disciple is represented by gemini in the old church zodiacs?
Danged if I know. Didn’t even know there was such a thing.
Yes. The twelve signs if the zodiac were replaced with the twelve apostles and the twelve tribes of Judah as Christianity became the dominant religion. Gemini is james and the tribe if Benjamin. Notice many ild stained gkass and paintings are just zodiacs with a cross in the middle but with apostles rather than zodiac signs
Geez, James and I have never gotten along. You should see his letter in my Bible. All he did was holler at me and tell me what a screw up I was… 🙁 Who was the Aires?
I will check. I am an aries
Peter and zebulon
I know you are. That’s why I asked. 😀 Why were you wondering?
Ive never thought about it before
And did learning that bring you enlightenment? 😉
No mam. Just confirmed that religion and astrology are the same thing. That in itself might be a form of enlightenment
And where did you come by this little bit of info? Might be useful for writing about the hammer of knowledge in Seeker… 😉
Its based in what is called astro theology. The idea is that the romans worshiped a sun god similar to the Egyptians. When they became “christian” they just put new labeks in the same practice. Ie we worship on sun-day. The father and mother gave birth to a sun/son who died on a cross a zodiac with twelve rays twelve signs twelve apostles. Google mark passio astro theology if you are interested
Fascinating. I’ll check that out tomorrow. Eyes are drooping, time to hit the hay. Don’t stay up too late, sweetie. <3
Looking at this right now! (Good morning, pardner! 😀 )
Watched a few minutes of it. Will be back to finish when I get done with my to-do list. Stay groovy, your dudeship… 😉
It may be like watching paint dry to anyone else. 🙂 so if you nod off its ok to move on. I was interested in the process of moving into the unknown with whatever limited skills I had. I meditated on it for a long time just holding the slingshit and playing with it till an idea formed itself in my mind. Then I experimented and tried things. Some worked and some did not. But the failures opened the way. And all along the way I gained real knowing that is impossible by talking or thinking or watching videos about it. I knew about it through research and study but now i know. Simple things like the difference difference in the functioning between a three pound hammer and a regular claw. I think it musr be similar with soul work. We tend to spend much more energy studying and thinking than doing and get faked out believing that they are the same. But it seems ine is only potential with the illusion of the Real. The other is actual and realized Knowing. Or so it seems to me.
To be honest, it’s the tone of your voice that keeps me watching. I always said you were a story teller!

I believe you’re right about that. I’m a kinesthetic learner. I understand that all too well. (So which, do you figure, is The Seeker? Hands on working things out or just more mind games?)
