10:26 am	@@@@@The idea occurred to me (and has since @@@@@The idea occurred to me (and has since recurred) that all my struggle to live and regain a semblance of myself may have been paid back by no more than the touch of that old woman's handThe eroded 719 smoothness of the palmThe bent strength of those fingers "Art is memory, EdgarThere is no simpler way to say itThe clearer the memory, the better the artThese paintings - they break my heart and then make it new againHow glad I am to know they were done at Salmon Point She lifted the hand she'd caressed my head with "Tell me what you call that one "Sunset with Sophorawhat? Sunset with Conch, Numbers 1 through 4?" I smiled"Well, there were sixteen of them, actually, starting with colored pencil-sketches Some of those are out frontI picked the best oils for in hereThey're surreal, I know, but-" "They're not surreal, they're classicalAny fool can see thatThey contain all the elements: earth I saw Wireman mouth: Don't tire her out! "Why don't I give you a quick tour of the rest and then get you a cold drink?"

10:26 am	@@@@@There will be a dramatic increase in the @@@@@There will be a dramatic increase in the number of new multimillionairesThere also will be those who are left behind Today, I find so many people struggling, often working harder, simply because they cling to old ideasThey want things to be the way they were; they resist change I know people who are losing their jobs or their houses, and they blame technology or the economy or their bossSadly they fail to realize that they might be the problemOld ideas are their biggest liability It is a liability simply because they fail to realize that while that idea or way of doing something was an asset yesterday, yesterday is gone One afternoon I was teaching investing using a board game I had invented, CASHFLOW, as a teaching toolA friend had brought someone along to attend the classThis friend of a friend was recently divorced, had been badly burned in the divorce settlement, and was now searching for some answersHer friend thought the class might help The game was designed to help people learn how money worksIn playing the game, they learn about the interaction of the income statement with the balance sheetThey learn how "cash flows" between the two and how the road to wealth is through striving to increase your monthly cash flow from the asset column to the point that it exceeds your j monthly expensesOnce you accomplish this, you are able to get out of the "Rat Race" and out onto the "Fast Track" As I have said, some people hate the game, some love it, and others miss the pointThis woman missed a valuable opportunity to learn somethingIn the opening round, she drew a "doodad" card with the boat on itAt first she was happy "Oh, I've got a boat Then, as her friend tried to explain how the numbers worked on her income statement and balance sheet, she got frustrated because she "had never liked mathThe rest of her table waited while her friend continued explaining the relationship between the income statement, balance sheet and monthly cash flow Suddenly, when she realized how the numbers worked, it dawned on her that her boat was eating her aliveLater on in the game, she was also "downsized" and had a chil (Comment on this)

10:31 am	@@@@@The earth as the poet's image of @@@@@The earth as the poet's image of womb-mother, I suppose Even the language for artillery commands, the obviously coarse connotationsPerhaps it satisfies an unconscious satisfaction in us serving the Death-MotherSpread trails, level your bubbles, lay the pieceI recall that training class I inspected, the amusement of the trainees at that terminology, and the junior officer saying, "If you can't put the shell in that big hole, I don't know what you'll do when you get older Perhaps it's a notion worth analyzingAny psychoanalytical work on it? But there are other weapons tooThese booby traps in Europe that the Germans use, or even our own experience at Hill 318 on MotomeDangerous things like a plague of vermin, squat black ugly little things, undermining the men with nausea and horror until the act of straightening a picture might make one weep -- from anticipation of the explosion or the fear that a few dark roaches might dart across the wall from the space one has uncovered The tank and truck like the heavy ponderous animals of the jungle, buck and rhinoceri, the machine gun as the chattering gossip snarling many lives at once? Or the rifle, the quiet personal arm, the extension of a man's powerCan't we relate all of them? And for the obverse, in battle, men are closer to machines than humansA plausible acceptable thesisBattle is an organization of thousands of man-machines who dart with governing habits across a field, sweat like a radiator in the sun, shiver and become stiff like a piece of metal in the rainWe are not so discrete from the machine any longer, I detect it in my thinkingWe are no longer adding apples and horsesA machine is worth so many men; the Navy has judged it even more finely than weThe nations whose leaders strive for Godhead apotheosize the machineI wonder if this applies to me He sat back and lit a cigaretteThe mantle in the Coleman lantern was beginning to buzz, and he sat up to adjust it, remembering for an instant Hearn's expression as he had sat before him asking for a transferThe General shrugged, sat back again, staring at his deskIn transcribing his thought to paper it seemed somehow less profound, more contrived, and he was dissatisfied vaguelyHe might have written no more, but the image of Lieutenant Hearn upset him, almost uncovered a trap door of his mindHe pushed back the picture resolutely, drew a line under his last sentence, and began to write about something else I was considering a little earlier a rather fascinating curve whose connotations are quite var (Comment on this)

Colum smiled "Women and their questions," he said"You're all alike both sides of the oceanWe didn't approve of the man who wanted to court her He was a soldier, and a heathen besides "You mean a Protestant Did she love him?"

I try to think of a way to get itThe hand on my neck isn't tight enough to keep me from yanking freeI think I heard where the blade landed He spins me around suddenlyThere is a click, and light blinds my left eyeI gasp and automatically try to twist away from itHis hand tightens in my hairThe light flickers to my right eye “I can't believe it,” he whispers His hands grab my face from both sides, and before I can pull free, his lips come down hard on mine I'm frozen for half a secondNo one has ever kissed me in my lifeJust my parents' pecks on the cheek or forehead, so many years agoThis is something I thought I would never feelI'm not sure exactly what it feels like, thoughThere's too much panic, too much terror, too much adrenaline (Comment on this)

My guess was that Elizabeth had forgotten most of what had happened to her when she was a child even before the Alzheimer's came along to complicate things Because forgetting isn't always involuntary Sometimes it's willed Who would want to remember something so awful that it had made your father scream until he bled? Better to stop drawing completelyTo just go cold turkeyBetter to tell people you can hardly even draw stick figures, that when it comes to art you're like wealthy alums who support their college sports teams: if you can't be an athlete, be an athletic supporte (Comment on this)

10:26 am	@@@@@BE AN "INDIAN GIVER": This is the power of @@@@@BE AN "INDIAN GIVER": This is the power of getting something for nothingWhen the first white settlers came to America, they were taken aback by a cultural practice some American Indians hadFor example, if a settler was cold, the Indian would give the person a blanketMistaking it for a gift, the settler was often offended when the Indian asked for it back The Indians also got upset when they realized the settlers did not want to give it backThat is where the term "Indian giver" came fromA simple cultural misunderstanding In the world of the "asset column," being an Indian giver is vital to wealthThe sophisticated investor's first question is, "How fast do I get my money back?" They also want to know what they get for free, also called a piece of the actionThat is why the ROI, or return of and on investment, is so important For example, I found a small condominium, a few blocks from where I live, that was in foreclosureThe bank wanted $60,000, and I submitted a bid for $50,000, which they took, simply because, along with my bid, was a cashier's check for $50,000They realized I was seriousMost investors would say, aren't you tying up a lot of cash? Would it not be better to get a loan on it? The answer is, not in this caseMy investment company uses this as a vacation rental in the winter months, when the "snowbirds" come to Arizona, and rent it for $2,500 a month for four months out of the yearFor rental during the off-season, it rents for only $1,000 a monthI had my money back in about three years Now I own this asset, which pumps money out for me, month in and month out The same is done with stocksFrequently, my broker will call me and recommend I move a sizable amount of money into the stock of a company that he feels is just about to make a move that will add value to the stock, like announcing a new product I will move my money in for a week to a month while the stock moves upThen, I pull my initial dollar amount out, and stop worrying about the fluctuations of the market, because my initial money is back and ready to work on another assetSo my money goes in, and then it comes out, and I own an asset that was technically free True, I have lost money on many occasions But I only play with money I can afford to lose (Comment on this)

10:34 am	@@@@@Once more his arms thrashed up toward his @@@@@Once more his arms thrashed up toward his head"Goddammit," Wilson cried, "let's move those Japs, men, if we gonna get a goddam souvenir He struggled again on the stretcher"Who put that bag on my head? Red, that's a lousy trick to play on a buddyI cain't see in this fuggin cave, move that Jap off my head The handkerchief slipped down over his nose and Wilson blinked into the sun and closed his eyes once more"Watch out, that snake!" he shouted suddenly, his body cringing"Red, you got to shoot it careful, take a good bead, take a good bead He mumbled something, and then his body relaxed"Ah tell you, a dead man look jus' like a shoulder o' lamb been lying around too long Brown replaced the handkerchief, and Wilson struggled beneath itGoddammit, they're shootin' at us, you know how to swim, Taylor, goddammit lemme get behind the boat!" Brown shudderedWilson was talking about the Motome invasionOnce more Brown was choking in the salt water, knowing the final resigned terror that came with accepting deathIn his exhaustion, he felt for a moment as if he were swallowing the water again, feeling the same numb surprise at realizing that he could not control himself from gulping; the water had washed down his throat with a momentum and will of its own That was the cause of it all, he thought now bitterlyThe memory always loosed such panic and weakness in himHe had learned then that he was helpless in the shattering gyre of the war, and he could never shake the recollectionDoggedly, through his exhaustion, he told himself that he had to bring Wilson back, but he did not believe it now at all Through the afternoon the litter-bearers continued on their marchAbout two o'clock it began to rain, and the ground quickly became muddyThe rain at first was a relief; they welcomed it on their blazing flesh, wriggled their toes in the slosh that permeated their bootsThe wetness of their clothing was pleasurableThey enjoyed being cold for a few minutesBut as the rain continued the ground became too soft, and their uniforms cleaved uncomfortably to their bodie (Comment on this)

I don't mean to be rude in calling you that I didn't look at her“I still go by WandererI pegged you for one that would choose her own It had long been clear to me that the mild spat I'd overheard the first day I woke in the Healing facility was the Seeker's faultThe Seeker was the most confrontational soul I'd come across in nine livesMy first Healer, Fords Deep Waters, had been calm, kind, and wise, even for a soul Yet he had not been able to help reacting to herThat made me feel better about my own response I turned around to face herShe was on my small couch, nestled in comfortably as if for a long visitHer expression was self-satisfied, the bulging eyes amusedI controlled the desire to scowl “Why are you here?” I asked againMy voice was a monotoneI would not lose control again in front of this woman “It's been a while since I heard anything from you, so I thought I would check in personally We've still made no headway in your case My hands clamped down on the edge of the counter behind me, but I kept the wild relief from my voice “That seems… overzealousBesides, I sent you a message last night Her eyebrows came together in that way she had, a way that made her look angry and annoyed at the same time, as if you, not she, were responsible for her a (Comment on this)

10:36 am	@@@@@ At last—it seemed an at last to Fanny’s @@@@@ At last—it seemed an at last to Fanny’s nervousness, though not remarkably late—he began to talk of going away; but the comfort of the sound was impaired by his turning to her the next moment, and saying, “Have you nothing to send to Mary? No answer to her note? She will be disappointed if she receives nothing from you Pray write to her, if it be only a line “Oh yes! certainly,” cried Fanny, rising in haste, the haste of embarrassment and of wanting to get away—”I will write directly She went accordingly to the table, where she was in the habit of writing for her aunt, and prepared her materials without knowing what in the world to sayShe had read Miss Crawford’s note only once, and how to reply to anything so imperfectly understood was most distressingQuite unpractised in such sort of note-writing, had there been time for scruples and fears as to style she would have felt them in abundance: but something must be instantly written; and with only one decided feeling, that of wishing not to appear to 268 Mansfield Park think anything really intended, she wrote thus, in great trembling both of spirits and hand— “I am very much obliged to you, my dear Miss Crawford, for your kind congratulations, as far as they relate to my dearest William The rest of your note I know means nothing; but I am so unequal to anything of the sort, that I hope you will excuse my begging you to take no farther noticeI have seen too much of Mr Crawford not to understand his manners; if he understood me as well, he would, I dare say, behave differentlyI do not know what I write, but it would be a great favour of you never to mention the subject againWith thanks for the honour of your note, I remain, dear Miss Crawford, etc The conclusion was scarcely intelligible from increasing fright, for she found that MrCrawford, under pretence of receiving the note, was coming towards her “You cannot think I mean to hurry you,” said he, in an undervoice, perceiving the amazing trepidation with which she made up the note, “you cannot think I have any such objectDo not hurry yourself, I entreat “Oh! I thank you; I have quite done, just done; it will be ready in a moment; I am very much obliged to you; if you will be so good as to give that to Miss Crawford The note was held out, and must be taken; and as she instantly and with averted eyes walked towards the fireplace, where sat the others, he had nothing to do but to go in good earnest Fanny thought she had never known a day of greater agitation, both of pain and pleasure; but happily the pleasure was not of a sort to die with the day; for every day would restore the knowledge of William’s advancement, whereas the pain, she hoped, would return no moreShe had no doubt that her note must appear excessively ill-written, that the language would disgrace a child, for her distress had allowed no arrangement; but at least it would assure them both of her being neither imposed on nor gratified by MrCrawford’s attentions 269 Jane Austen CHAPTER XXXII FANNY HAD BY NO MEANS forgotten MrCrawford when she awoke the next morning; but she remembered the purport of her note, and was not less sanguine as to its effect than she had been the night beforeCrawford would but go away! That was what she most earnestly desired: go and take his sister with him, as he was to do, and as he returned to Mansfield on purpose to doAnd why it was not done already she could not devise, for Miss Crawford certainly wanted no delayFanny had hoped, in the course of his yesterday’s visit, to hear the day named; but he had only spoken of their journey as what would take place ere (Comment on this)
