Springtime has Sprung!

🌚 new moon, supermoon.
when you have an full eclipse of the Sun
by The moon you have to have a supermoon or it will be an
annular eclipse, the Sun will not be totally covered, and 
will look like a ring (don't look directly at it).

Spring 2015
oh, ye birds,
sweetly shivering
this first day of Spring
harken back to highschool books
from the highschool library
 A book of Old English poetry
 
    which got me started on my wierdo poems
    in the long ago.
  
Oh, ye birds that nest all Winter 
in the Yew at the Church you
conclave when we have Mass,
it's a noisey chatter from the bush
and in the church.

Oh, yes, it's Springtime, 2015
and I can harken back to the concept
of eternal springtime.
In that field everyone is always young
and falling in love with life!

"That music makes me happy."
           - a little girl at Savers
             in Framingham today
             chattering to herself
             about a musical toy.

Well, there was an eclipse. And I don't know if people could see it here, but I don't think so. (even as a partial.)

What do you do when you get an unknown call? I don't answer them anymore. If they give me a number, I look it up on line. But if no number, at all, is given, then , I don't answer. So if it's you calling, and you want me to respond here's a better idea: send me an email to my known accounts (which ought to be availible if you really know who I am by looking up my name and searching back a few years.). You can always contact this place by going to your contanct page and reading through that. Here's a link: About/Contact. If that link doesn't work, email me about it. LOL. Ya, I know, I capitalized LOL.

Even though it's officially Spring, 2015 right about now, it feels like Winter, still. There is another season that sometimes shows up, here, in New England. It's called mud season. It might be hard for anyone in Arizona, or someone who's desert-loving like Corey Harrison, Pawn Star. Corey, on one show, admitted that woods and thickets creep him out. Well, there are parts of woodlands that can be creepy, but, Cory, if you read this, let me tell ya, mister . . . . chough. Oh, I'm imitating a gaffer. Woods are friendly places in the right weather, and very unfriendly in the wrong weather. Worst is if you get lost in one, off a path. In a wind storm it's not good to go off into the forest. When limbs start flying you don't want to be out there in it.

But in the Spring, it can be wonderful. It's best to hike trails after mud season. Birds sing as you stroll the path. The buds tinge the trees in reds golds. Greens can seem as emeralds blazing within the brillience of the forest noon. The woodland in Springtime displays thousands of different kinds of buds which bloom in waves of color. These colors vary during the day. They sway with a restful sound in the rough winds of May, in the evening. They full the air with their scent. And blooms! Oh ya. There is this time of petal fall, when a grove of trees sheds all the petals. They blow through the courtyards, like some kind of Impressionism art project, only it's just natural.

As the weeks progress more and different things bloom, each in their own time of the season, with the same general pattern year to year, first this, then that, then that. Each in it's time. The time for each is different from place to place. You see all of this is you frequent the woodland. Year to year. You will learn the patterns.

When the weather is fair, and the sun is bright in the sky, the woodland trail welcomes you in to it. The woods beckon you in, lure you in, dare to enter into their healing spaces.

There is nothing scary about it. So, if you get skivvy about the woods, please, take a trip to Waldon Woods, in the Springtime. You can plan it for about a month from now for crazy day, which is what Marathon Monday is.

May is really awesome in New England forests. I would come end of May, First week of June. Or, come for the July 4th weekend and you might even be able to catch the Brian Wilson show on July 2 down on the harbor in South Boston. I think they call it The Marina District. I recommend catching his show because he is so awesome.

At the thrift store today a little girl was leaning over a musical toy and playing with it, attentive to the thing. Innocently, she chattered on about everything that she was doing and seeing. Someone must really speak sweetly around her, or she is just naturally thankful for things. This is a quote, after she was playing with the toy "This music makes me happy." Genuine, innocent, real. She wasn't trying to impress anyone. She was talking to herself, essentially.

I went over to the woman who was caring for her, an early thirties mother, I think, who had that tired look that one often sees in those caring for active children. I told her that what the little girl said was like a marketting slogan. You could sell it. Someone will trademark it and make billions. But the profits should go for all the sweet children who naturally appreciate the joys of life. This little girl, all good things going well, will be some kind of wonderful community building kind of girl when she's grown up and running things.

"This music makes me happy." - Hamlet never said this. It was a little girl at Savers today, in Framingham on Rt. 30, maybe 3 to 4 years old, a pre schooler with her day mom?

sweetest naturally said quote of the week:

from the TMZ cool-dude in the back

              bearded and in the back
 TMZ pain in his brother's back
             dad in the back
             Str8 in the back
             

     "every kid has a future."
             
    "every kid has a future."         
             
     it was said so sweetly and naturally that
     natural reaction: 'ahhhhh'
     
     ahhhhh
     
      but this guy is always fun
     to watch because of how he clowns,
     all I could do is say 'Ahhh'
     
     It was a spontaneous 'ahhhhhh'.
     
     

 tiny font, what do you ahve to say about it?
        the real 'ahhhhh' must be unscripted and genuine . . . but
        such sentimentality is so . . . goopy.
        Why wouldn't snark-master flannel bun woman come up with a 
                quick quip concerning
                  young-dad with a beard's comments?

Heartfelt TMZ

Dude in the back was responding to an enthusiastic comment by Harvey Levin about the cut-it-up attitude of the son of Mr. Rob Lowe, Johnny Lowe. Of the young man's comments Harvey said "This kids got a future."

More comments were made by others, in typical fashion of the TMZ show. And then Dude-in-the-back said "Every kid has a future." (I reviewed this episode after writing this, second edit, and a small pseudo transcript is below). Then there was that spontaneous, heartfelt, and very genuine 'ahhhhh'. At which point . . . open up the shoots because the ppooopps coming down. Out it flows from one the young women who sits in a chair on the floor. (the hair in a bun Hun? probably not a sensitive name to call this dear woman). Young woman who dares to do the hair-bun with flannel AM thing (maybe they were PJ's. She's perpetually snarky on the show because she not an AM gal?) She usually has truthful, though snarky, things to say. It's not supposed to be mean but funny. In this case she was probably responding to the exceptional sentimentality of the dad-dude with the ridiculous beard

Yup, she killed all of that sentimentality. Dad-with-a-huge-beard didn't get away with his natural adorable Str8 dude-dad sentimentality. Her snarky response wasn't so cool. When there are young parents in the room what this young woman said might make them emotional.

Basically she said 'if they survive' which is a tasteless and almost vulgar way to speak around parents with young children.

This is yet another example of the stuff that TMZ puts-out that makes them credible. They put out what people think. We get to see Young Dad whose suddenly concerned about all children, and wishing blessings on all of them. If there is a kid he will have a future (she will have a future, transgenders will have a future). That is a sweet and very ecumenical thought, and something that we all want. It is a blessing for all children! Words of power.

But the one with out a kid yet, she's still going on with the snark. Maybe she doesn't understand about blessings, and how words really have an effect? But, no, Cool-dude with the Beard (young bearded dad) of TMZ is right:

if something happens to little child, little child is going to Heaven! That is their future. So, bless the children. And do not snark about the fate of children in front of young parents.

I am sure snark-saying young woman with no kids would have something else snarky to say to my comments here. I might even think it's funny. Maybe she doesn't know yet, this young woman, how emotional having an infant makes women and dads? Sentimentality? That is something to scoff at by many when they are young and in party-hearty mode. But once they are a parent, well, they just want to make the world safe for all babies everywhere.

And if I were on TMZ they wouldn't edit that out either.(I have no way to verify this)

To be fair, I don't know if the snark-saying TMZ young woman in the office chair doesn't have children. I am saying 'no kids' because if she did I doubt she'd be snarky like that about youngsters. She doesn't seem to be one who is mean. And she doesn't let anyone get away with it. It was more like 'oh, the sentimentality, screw that.' I guess if one really wanted to know why she said that . . . you'd have to ask her. I think it was just a natural response to overwhelming sentimentality. Maybe she felt something, like the call of parenthood and she was like 'ewe'.

OK, so now you know another reason why I find that TMZ has exceptional cultural value. TMZ allows a crowd of seemingly ordinary people, just like us, to express themselves in ways that, even if they are hurtful and make young emotional postpartum moms weep, they put it on the air anyway for edutainment purposes. Because we are all in this together and people will say tasteless things just to ruin that spontaneous 'ahhhh'

And young-somethings, like Hot Hollywood friends of the famous at TMZ, know that sometimes funny is also hurtful. How do young people learn that unless you teach them about it? What better way than to give examples of it. The forum at TMZ, is just such a place where the examples leap out of the television at you. We learn by hearing the raw and tasteless comment that if you said such on another show they'd bring you to the HR shrink.

On TMZ there are these continuous morality plays where sentiment encounters snark, or clueless rich-girl encounters East LA. But all in all they are trying to give people a way to voice what they want to say, give the public insight into the things that really are news in LA, do a lot of product placement not just for items but for shows, music, and movies. They are putting out the word but also trying to show a large array of different personalities who conflict, but are smart enough to interact well and keep it all in the barnyard.

If you want to see the episode discussed here you can watch the show on line. I give a link below, look for it.

All of this was followed by the TMZ announcer's comments. I don't remember exactly what the announcer said following the insensitive quip of the young woman. It was a comment on her insensitivity, I think.

I'd watch this again, but I've spent so much time writing about it that . . .

OK, I watched it again. It's at 4:47 into the show at this link TMZ full episode 03/18/2015.

It would be fun to see the crew in a different locale. Say, in the early AM. Why, Mr. Levin could spring for an evening buffet at . . . were else but Craig's, oh, I suppose The Grove. And they could do it like they were the ones to be hounded by the paparazzi.

And as far as smart-girl with a bun and a lot snark, she might not be a morning person. So they could do the show in the afternoon sometime and see how everyone is. It would give it a whole different feel, you could see how the people are at a different time of day, and get a better sense of their personalities (much satire starts here)and how they can act as a healing balm on the soul of divided America . . .

This is the part were the voice over guy would come on and say something cool that makes it all seem funny. AS I am not him, and I can't write his bit . . .

Yes, in conclusion, I will say that I do enjoy the show, and the people on it. And that they grow. They are like the Pawn Stars of gossip Hollywood, each of them stars in their own right. And worthy of the blessing of having a boss who wants it all to be cool and groovy (is that announcer guy going to be lurking in my consciousness. I can't imagine what he'd say, he always says something . . .(this is sounding vaguely like the lyrics to "Old Man River")

And to try and understand their formula? It's simple: family. You create a family. You let them be free with their thoughts. You keep it respectful. You respectfully discuss other people. You respect that sometimes tired people say silly, snarky things that are "Accurate but depressing." are presented to allow for those who make the mistake of saying them to see the effect of such callus thoughts, blamelessly said in a snarky way by someone seemingly dressed in PJ's (I don't know that). All good things to her.

And all good things to people of good will. Now I'm quoting Charles Dickens

small transcript:
during a discussion of an encounter with Rob and Johnny Lowe
at Craig's, in Hollywood.
at about 4:47
 Johnny Lowe: "That's so disappointing"
  which was hilarious so everyone was laughing
  in the clips of the folks watching the encounter
  at the papparazzi place.
at about 4:59 into the show TMZ studio
 woman at the counter, enthusiastically:
   "That kids got a future!"
 dad-dude with the outragious beard
   said with sweet sentiment, like a blessing:
  "Every kid has a future."
 young woman with a daring hair-bun and flannel,
 may be sleep deprived, a morbid observation said
 as if it's funny, with the tone of 'one upping'
 directed at bearded-dad:
  "Everyone has a future . . .  until they die."
 announcer:
  "Accurate but depressing."
