A number of years ago, an auction lot from the Egypt Exploration Society’s 1936 auction was acquired by my friend, noted coin specialist and antiquarian author, collector and dealer, the noted Amarna expert, Joel Malter. Continue reading
That’s right, you heard me rightly … “What war?”
I’m not buying it. I respawned in 1941, we’re fighting a world war in Europe and another one in the Pacific, and it went on for years, and then the Korean war started right after that.
People who can’t get along are not going to survive the asteroidal impact in 2026 — there’s barely enough time to act now, and by the time they do, the technology won’t be there to handle it.
I have a one dollar bet on it back home in the 37th century. Not SIM dollars, a real Federation Dollar, and that means I can finally go on that dream vacation I’ve always wanted to go on, but I haven’t been able to dream up any destinations, so here I still am.
Yep, I’m still here, 80 years later, carving coins and painting flips and stringing ancient beads into modern fancy necklaces, because war or not, we have to make a living. Continue reading
I’ve started a new flip art direction, which I’ve called “The Dead Emp Series”, because I use a bunch of my hand-engraved “BoHo Nickels”, in the form of 2,000 year old Roman Bronze AE type coins.
I’ve altered them slightly, to render the emperor pictured on the coin clearly dead. It’s more or less a skull-out of the king. Continue reading
Prices are “per bag”, which will vary in amounts based on the stuff inside, okay? I’ll get special bags for the project, which will show off the herbs nicely. Jewel and I have been studying hundreds of packaging options, and we think we have a winner with our Clear Bags. When appropriate, a ribbon is wrapped around the things, but that doesn’t happen often, except of course with the honey. Continue reading
Wow, at last, a way to burn oils, incenses, powders, herbs, salts and more, without having to buy charcoal briquettes that fume up the atmosphere and are downright dangerous. No more sputtering charcoal spitting out sparks in your home!
Now I can offer those things to you, knowing that you will be able to burn them safely — the burners I have in mind have automatic timers and temperature settings from low to mid-high.
Everything I could possibly want to burn at my Altar will work in the burners which I have selected as the best currently offered & available. That’s the thing — many of these wondrous items are not available due to supply chain issues, but even so, you CAN find one, with some luck and perseverance.
The good ones run around $35-$65, but watch for no timer or no heat control — some have them, some don’t. This is not a place to save a couple of bucks. Be kind to yourself, and if possible, be lavishly kind to yourself. The burner will be used to do good work in the higher spheres, thus earning you Merit and passing the Blessings on to those around you! Continue reading
It’s all about vibration, that’s what all the mystics will tell you, even if you don’t ask, and the reason they tell you this is because it’s true — everything is a RESULT of tiny little vibrating strings that fill the universe with nothingness.
Then along comes some wiseguy with a Higgs particle, and the next thing you know, there’s stars, and galaxies and supergalaxies and galactic chains and … Well, it gets pretty big and messy from inside, but from the outside, you can barely see the entire galactic cluster without an electron macroscope, but that’s quite another quantum. Continue reading
Hello to Josh Foreman and to my many CTF friends around the world and beyond! I just passed the year 80 mark, and I can prove it by the fact that I have no idea how to do anything in discord or on a forum, but I can write a blog, so that decided me.
I don’t have a four-year-old around to guide me in these matters, only my fellow octagenarians, and none of us knows anything about cell phones, nor do we have one.
Claude told me he’d run into you in a thing called “discord”. I looked it up and still don’t understand it, but I figured that he could contact you somehow and tell you this open letter is here.
I also calculate that the more exposure blankos block parties get, the better, and I’m here to help, as I am able! Continue reading
So you say you’re ready for an adventure in Blankos, eh? Well, let’s see how ready you really are. I have an adventure for you, but it’s a hard and dusty path and a rocky road ahead, and there’s lava down below.
First of all, we’ll explore the basics of Blankos.
If you go to youtube or to the blankos.com website for answers, you won’t find them there. In fact, if you text them and ask how to start building, they’ll tell you wrong, because they have outdated information. Continue reading
I borrowed the title from Mr. Fungible at NFT Times on youtube. He said it wouldn’t work, but I think it might, and I’m willing to risk ten minutes of my time to prove it. You can see his youtube channel here:
He mentions in his video a number of things related to marketing. Now, apart from a class demonstration on marketing which I might put up on opensea, youtube or, you should pardon the expression, “the website formerly known as facebook”, I don’t care whether I sell anything or not. Continue reading
Near-Earth Asteroid (7482) 1994 PC1 is about half a mile wide, and will be about three times the distance of the moon away from us at about 2pm Pacific Standard Time, darn it — I missed again.
Well, there’s always Belphebus and Garadia, two slightly smaller asteroids, but I haven’t moved them yet, because I thought for sure I had this three-bank shot, but I didn’t.
Like I’ve always said, although the unbelievers still deny this, “The Same Thing Always Happens, No Matter Who’s In Charge”. Continue reading
