Today a Holy Man has died. What exactly do you have to do to be known as a Holy Man? My Dad's volunteering for goodness and mercy with a touch of secret order thrown in was what I consider the act of a holy man. I skipped alot of those pieces but did some other stuff Dad did, so am I a holy man? I'm guessing no, holy men take things more seriously than I do. Besides who said being a holy man is a good thing to be? A moral man, a decent man, yes but a hey, nanny nanny man? Not so sure. One visible trait of being a holy man is dedication to a simple, less indulgent lifestyle - I'm down with that. I ain't got no Hummer, ain't got no Escalade I'm a holy man, ain't got no garden dome.

The omission of the numerical rating of the state of mind and body could just be the reliability they contain for the new paradigm (creeping buzz words into this is tapping back into commerce man.) How can something so right be anything else? Buddy can you spare a neck brace? Imagine starting a new job - an appointed position and you begin the first 12 weeks with a Philadelphia collar on? It's the car crash one with the built in cup for your chin. More ah-moans from the ladies than carrying around a golden retriever puppy. If it wasn't for the arthritis, we could build a good laugh here - - maybe I should have replaced it with one of those cones they put around dogs neck to keep 'em from stitch licking. Next time.
