Tinker
The birth of my feeling into this very real world has been a forward motion through a green tunneled foliage of sun beams, and illuminating flowers. At night the stars seem to shine forever sometimes, because I felt so very much alive.
The love from the people who love us has simply become the emotional vessel that we need to navigate across the vast deep Oceans we travel. Everywhere is a color of beauty, sparkling off the sun lit cold wind brushing up against the heat.
Deadly danger is also everywhere, a fact of life that we can't seem to understand better. I feel vulnerable but strong at the same time. Trusting in myself and the love around us as I absolutely realize the danger that is in our world.
Trying to stay alive is the hard part of living for me. Because our death does seem to be more of an eternal reality compared to this brief time on earth that we get to live out our life now. Death to me feels more like the easier of the two. I mean just how hard must it be to simply stop living, drifting off into feeling nothing at all.
Life on the other hand is what I feel now at this very moment, and that feeling keep bringing a happy smile to my face. Can our body's feel anything else better than our own healthy emotions?
Pain and sickness then is what we should avoid, if we can. I keep feeling like there is a fate worse than dying for too many people, Because if somehow we happen to fall into a very painful bad circumstance of being sick, and unable to relieve the suffering. That can truly becomes a hell on earth when only death itself would be a better outcome, instead of being torched all the time.
If I heard that someone else has passed away I often ask about how was their last moments, because I keep hoping that we can all die free of pain. Learning how they handled the last moments of their life on this earth can help me to get ready for when it is my turn.
Both of my Grandmothers lived to be 96 years old. My Grandmother on my Mother side died in her sleep, the poor woman buried just about all of her children because of her longevity. I can't remember just how many children that she had, but I keep remembering the number 17 for some reason.
My Grandmother on my Father's side died in a old folks home, I really don't know how her last moments were. I just realized at the time that she was 96 also when she died. I fount that to be very peculiar how both women live 96 years and then both died at that same age. I remember going up to North Louisiana for her funeral with my Father, she had around 10 children herself, if I remember right?
I have become friends with people who have had a very different family life other than myself. And in fact I have been very surprised at just how much of a different experience that they did have.
I have dated women who were molested at a young age by their own father, or talked with friends who were seriously beaten, as a child. Everywhere it seems that a lot of other parents in this world of ours have been behaving just like monsters to their children, that became a dark and scary nightmare. And unforgivably for too many of the other people in our life that nightmare was very real to them.
I never had to overcome those kind of bad experiences as a child before, and I can only guess at just how hard that must be for the people who have been unlucky enough to be hurt like that as children. Growing up around bad parents seems to be the dividing line between the lucky from the unlucky people throughout the history of humankind.
The way that we are raised seems to be everything.
I am now convinced that no one make it by themselves, somewhere along the way someone else has help them to get by with a friendly hand. A Mother, Father, Grandparent, Relative, Friend, Someone! A Teacher perhaps, or fellow Worker.
Money is not the class in your person. Yes! We gain
wisdom from somewhere else deep inside us, the knowledge we learn from
studying the world around us. To be able to understand the experiences
of others, to become skillful at the work we do. These human intangible
that help us to thoroughly understand our work is something we gain from
the hard work we do everyday.
Each of us knows a little something about our life that
we live, and collectively our population can build great City's, and
develop valuable technologies. Advance our medicine into healing magic.
We are indeed the salt of the earth if we just keep our wits about us.
We even have the ability to love each other.
So why all the overcrowded Prisons with cruel and unusual
punishment, and Insane Asylums placed here and there across our land.
What is the answer to all the crazy crime spreading around the world.
Entire country's are falling into Civil Wars crushing
innocent men, women and children to death. The mindless political power
struggle from our so called sophisticated elite, chasing after the
control of wealth and power has become very frighting. What is to become
of our decent people population living in our very real world of high
tech computers, that has seize our younger generation. To what end have
we helped developed our children's characters?
I am afraid that the answers that I am seeking is staring
back at me. The answer of course is that it still takes a good mentor
to teach a child, and a child that want to learn that make a good
student. So in turn it still takes a good teacher, and a good student,
to make a good school.
No telling what is likely to come out of that school, that could very well be sitting on a tree stump in the middle of the woods.
No telling what is likely to come out of that school, that could very well be sitting on a tree stump in the middle of the woods.
With
all of our present day computer technology going on line is only as
good as the mentor we are talking too. Our world of people still need
good parents and true friends in a big way.

Good morning, Tiger Fans,
The LSU football team arrived in Tampa yesterday, safe and sound, and hit the practice field at 3 p.m. After practice, Coach Miles and his Tigers enjoyed an Outback Bowl Welcome Party where they had a good meal along with the Iowa players and staff. Below is a recap of the first day’s activities, including a few quotes from Coach Miles:
LSU ARRIVES IN TAMPA; TIGERS PRACTICE AND TAKE PART IN FIRST BOWL EVENT
TAMPA – The LSU football team put in a full day on Thursday as the Tigers spent the morning traveling to the bowl site from Baton Rouge, followed by a two-hour practice and then capped off the day with the Outback Bowl Welcome Dinner.
LSU’s day started early on Thursday as the Tigers departed Baton Rouge at 9 a.m. After a one-hour and 30-minute flight, LSU arrived in Tampa at 11:30 and they were on the practice field at the University of Tampa by 2 p.m.
The Tigers capped their day with a series of meetings followed by an all-you-can eat steak, chicken and ribs dinner courtesy of Outback Steakhouse. LSU and Iowa combined to eat nearly 5,000 pounds of food, including 750 pounds of steak, 750 pounds of chicken and 900 pounds of ribs. There were also 1,600 coconut shrimp and 160 bloomin’ onions served to the teams.
“It was a good first day,” LSU coach Les Miles said following dinner. “We had a really good practice today in some terrific weather followed by a great meal served by Outback Steakhouse.”
Miles said the Tampa weather and all that the city has to offer make it an attractive bowl destination for both his team and LSU fans.
“The weather here is great,” Miles said. “I would hope that our LSU fans show up and cheer on the Tigers. I can tell you that there’s plenty of sunshine, the stadium is as nice a venue as you’ll find during bowl season and Tampa is a great destination city. This is going to be a great game and I hope there’s a lot of purple and gold in the seats.”
Miles said that while Tampa is a great city, his team is here to win a football game. The Tigers, who are making their 14th straight bowl appearance, are 5-3 in bowl games under Miles.
“We are focused and we are here to play a game,” Miles said. “This is not just a vacation in Tampa for us. This team is motivated by the chance at winning a 10th game and to come away with a bowl championship.”
Friday’s schedule has the Tigers with a morning workout followed by a trip to Busch Gardens.
Moving right along, today we’ll continue our position-by-position comparisons of LSU and Iowa by looking at the offensive and defensive lines. But first, let's go over the comparisons we’ve made earlier this week:
Tuesday, QB: Unknown
Wednesday, RB: Advantage LSU
Thursday, WR/TE: Advantage LSU
LSU OL vs. Iowa DL:
The challenge for LSU’s offensive line in the Outback Bowl will be getting to the second level. Iowa’s defensive line is great at taking on blocks and freeing up its stellar linebackers to make tackles. There’s no wonder Iowa’s linebackers are the top three tacklers on the team. It’s basic but effective. As a result of this strategy, Iowa’s defensive line does not get a tremendous amount of penetration. The Hawkeyes are tied for eighth in sacks in the Big Ten. When the Hawkeyes do get penetration, it’s normally generated by defensive lineman Carl Davis. Davis finds his way into the backfield throughout games, while Drew Ott, Louis Trinca-Pascatt and Mike Hardy excel in run defense. There are no real game-changers on the defensive line for Iowa, but they can certainly alter the game by disrupting blocking schemes. So if the Tigers want to win the battle upfront, they need to be physical at the point of attack and chip well to get to the next level and block the linebackers. Elliot Porter will have the unfortunate task of trying to block the talented linebacker James Morris. His job will be much more difficult than Trai Turner and Vadal Alexander’s, who should matchup well physically against Davis and Trinca-Pasat. Even with Jerald Hawkins and Porter coming off of injuries, LSU’s offensive line should take care of business against Iowa’s defensive line. The Tigers have seen far more athletic defensive lines this season in the SEC and have struggled more against pass rushing teams. Look for LSU to assert itself here.
Advantage LSU
LSU DL vs. Iowa OL
Alright Anthony Johnson, the Tigers are going to need your best performance of the season. Simply put, Iowa’s offensive line is powerful. This unit isn’t the most athletic group LSU has seen this year, but they are strong at the point of attack and move defenders well off of the ball. Because of the offense Iowa presents, the offensive line is best at run blocking. Downhill running against the grain of defenses is this offense’s recipe for success, and the hogmollies upfront are responsible for clearing the way. The Hawkeyes are best at the tackle position, as Brandon Sherff and Brett Van Sloten protect well (Iowa has a conference-best 12 sacks allowed all season). They are especially phenomenal at sealing off the edge on stretch plays. Danielle Hunter and Jermauria Rasco will need to get up the field and crash inside to try and nullify Iowa’s powerful running game. As for Johnson and Ego Ferguson, they’re going to be challenged on the inside against a team that averages 43 rushes per game. Their play will be vital, and Christian LaCouture and Quentin Thomas must provide strong relief. Because of the inconsistent play by LSU’s defensive line this season, I would give Iowa’s offensive line the advantage. Their tendency to wear down opposing defensive lines could be worrisome for a defensive line that’s struggled with depth.
Advantage Iowa
I'll leave you today with the following tid-bits:
• Six of LSU's nine in-state commitments for 2014 made the LHSAA’s All-State teams. The six are OG Garrett Brumfield, ATH D.J. Chark, OL William Clapp, QB Brandon Harris, WR Trey Quinn, and RB Darrell Williams. Absent from the All-State teams were LSU commits LB Donnie Alexander, DL Davon Godchaux (knee), and TE Jacory Washington.
• LSU was well represented on SportsOnEarth.com's NFL All-Rookie team with three former Tigers on the first team defense. The three are Barkevious Mingo (Browns), Eric Reid (49ers), Tyrann Matheiu (Cardinals). You can check out their comments on these Tigers and the full All-Rookie team here.
• Looking for tickets to the Outback Bowl? Our ticket exchange was updated last night with several new listings, and I understand tickets are still available through LSUTix.net.
