Pirates on the high-seas lay in waiting to charge at your freighter, your ship that is as long as the Chrysler Building is tall, and they storm into your seven story high bridge tower, and CONK you on your head.

They scream, and shoot up the place, and scream some more asking, "Where is the Manifests?"

One problem though, you cannot understand what they say, due to your iron ear that can't understand heavy accents. Your inability landed you this job as ships mate in the first place; now it is giving you multiple bloody bumps on your head...

Thinking to yourself: "If only I could understand what they say, I would give them what they want...!"

That is why you Need --

January 3, 2009 Gaza -- the new Poland

INSTANT VIEW-Israeli troops move into Gaza

LONDON, Jan 3 (Reuters) - Israel launched a ground offensive in the Gaza Strip on Saturday after a week-long air campaign against Hamas over the firing of rockets into the Jewish state.

The Palestinian death toll, before tanks moved in, reached nearly 450. Gaza rocket attacks have killed four Israelis.

Following are comments from politicians and commentators:

MAJOR AVITAL LEIBOVITCH, ISRAELI MILITARY SPOKESWOMAN:

"The objective is to destroy the Hamas terror infrastructure in the area of operations."

HAMAS OFFICIAL ISMAIL RADWAN:

"We have prepared the statement of victory for you (Palestinians) ... and you will see it soon."

Addressing Israeli soldiers, he said: "Gaza will not be a picnic. Gaza will be a graveyard for you."

BROOKE ANDERSON, OBAMA'S NATIONAL SECURITY SPOKESWOMAN:

"The President-elect is closely monitoring global events, including the situation in Gaza. There is one president at a time, and we intend to respect that."

CZECH EU PRESIDENCY SPOKESMAN JIRI POTUZNIK:

"At the moment, from the perspective of the last days, we understand this step as a defensive, not offensive, action." (Writing by Sami Aboudi; editing by Elizabeth Piper)

MooPig Welcomes you to Syllabic syndicate consort... Or a game of Hang Man, sort of

MooPig's Lesson Plan Department
Subject: Paradox of the Paramecium as a single cell thing

Assumptions: Assume no Socio-political factors, and Cultural differences do not factor. And let’s just conjure up a fantasy that every-thing in the known universe enjoys playing “Hangman” in some capacity.

Also assume there actually is a theory of everything, TOE, posing as a singularity for our universe, and that rules of hangman apply throughout, no deviations.

So you have a hang man game for the hang paramecium. The single cell has no limbs so the word in play can only be a single item. Could it be a single letter as traditional hang man goes, or is it a single syllable, or is it part of a singularity theorem of single cell-ism? Start Playing:


"Let's see... ummm... 'S'?"

"Nope."

"Squeeeeky... gleeeeck.. zzz.. phhht!"


"Thwummmp!"







Oops; the paramecium is already hung. Any next step will be disastrous, because it will alter either the game rules or the critter's carnage. Complications are eminent: as the game and the subject start to lose their purity of form and function in time and space.

Questions:

1. If placed in a noose, the paramecium alone cannot tolerate more than one move in the game?
2. Does a paramecium ever have extra stuff, like limbs or flanges, that can be added to keep it alive on the gallows, while the game is played out?
3. Do parameciums ever get together in a conjugal, creative way to maybe keep the game going by joining forces before dying?
4. Besides leaving us mystified, confused and bewildered, what is the solution, Hoosier?

Discussion -- What is most important:
Yes and no, so the discussion will go. Between just us, can you imagine the conjecture around this ridiculous scheme if this ever leaked out to usgov.com? [do you think.. naw] I believe in the end wrap up when the TOE comes due, there will be many gaps in the body of knowledge left by all us humans, I mean as in "large chunks" missing. Our BOK, body of knowledge, is a body of unfinished business, for sure.

Conclusion: Hanging paramecium is commuted to a sentence of life with parole, not just because it was a hung jury, the judge reputedly is jung as well.

Postscript: Okay, so what? Well, it is this kind of thinking that always gets me into trouble with my friends and family. At this point they are collectively saying: "Why are you wasting our time with this Bull Crappe?" [I can actually hear them in my head right now!]

So instead of continuing with the stale, over-extended, mantra “Everything Matters” I am adopting in my old age a slicker LaSalle Street adage: “Everything that Matters.” It is now an exploration of finding what’s most important today, which is in most cases is the ability to determine "what." I euphemistically think you know what I'm steering toward --

What..

• draws your attention..
• core developments are powering change..
• greases the gears..
• stops the erosion?

That's my report from the middle, where thin is out, fat is in, and none of us are bi-coastal. >pd
