Oh, thank you for accepting the invitation. Now, be careful with where you step (http://www.dinnerinthesky.ca/popup_events/siga.htm). We're dinin in style, today.
I hope you have been keeping well. I heard that JHVH has a new cell phone plan out for His believers. That is SO NEAT. I wonder how much He charges for texting, and if that is available in Aramaic? What do you think of such a plan?
Anyway, this eve we have a nice spread available for you. I have been very busy, scouring the deserts of the Was, touring the leavings and detritus of lost civilizations, riding the streams of spirituality that lie deep beneath and inside.
For appetizers, might I suggest

What I like to bathe in, every so often:
And lastly, why I <3 human spirituality, it will always find a way to come to the fore: http://community.livejournal.com/tothehometree/profile
"Someone once said plants invented animals to carry them around. Well, I think the Earth invented human beings to build machines; and those machines will be the consciousness of the Earth. Have you not noticed that these machines are made of the Earth? They are made of gold and silver and arsenic and copper and iridium. They are the stuff of the Earth, organised by primate fingers into more complex arrangements than the Earth could achieve through geological folding, glaciation, volcanism, what have you. We do the fine-tuning; but the Earth is beginning to think."
--Terence McKenna
I hope I have given you enough to feed your insatiable appetites. I must be off. Mind the drop -- you can either go down the way you got here, or you can phone Superwoman on speed dial (she's in the Local Group of galaxies right now and needs something to do), or you can do what I am going to do...bungee down to that Mosque over there.
Just a Self-writing poem,
