Le Bon Dieu le Flambeur, Dreams & Monorails

I wake up; anything is possible, a voice says:  rien n'est impossible.

so I watch a film, Bob le Flambeur - Bob the Gambler by Jean-Paul Melville.

darn good film noir, darn good...pas d' mal

it reminds me of monorails for some reason; maybe because it is

set in the Montmartre, which is like so much of the world with

NO monorails...or no particularly rational means of moving traffic.

Reason does not move traffic, altho sometimes it pretends it may.

I dream a lot this week; my soul is "girding it loins" for something.

I always sleep a lot before taking cuts into the line of the Big Change.

Anything is possible. The reason so many people read the Bible

differently is:   any viewpoint is God's viewpoint.

Anything is possible. You just have to want it, I tell myself, still half asleep.

A reasonable system of transport is possible, but you have to want it.

I dream of monorails, because all the roads are crumbling, and require repair so often, they only are open 75% of the time over 20 years. We have what we allowed to be defined as what we wanted.

Communism can work - regardless of what conservative or liberal thought says - but you have to want it to work. Capitalism can actually bring great things to all the classes of people for a long time...

if you want it to do so, if you want it to work well. The crises of capitalism - if you look - are defined as being results of the system and its participants, not the system alone. You need ruthlessly self-centered participants to recreate the messes we make; the system itself is nothing without the brutes of Capital. Everything becomes politicized, so then nothing gets done! If one's daily hygiene were to become a political issue, one half the country would not bathe.

I stumble from my bed. There is an advertisment on from 1958!

Detroit, Feb. 7 -- The automobile industry may be producing cars driven by solar power in the years ahead, James C. Zeder, Chrysler vice-president, predicted today.
"We know how to get electrical energy from sunlight by means of silicon converters," said the Chrysler engineering expert. "If we continue to increase the efficiency of these converters, and if we are able to develop small, efficient energy storage cells solar powered cars will be feasible."
Zeder added that expanding knowledge of nuclear and solar energy is "bringing into sight" more abundant power for people everywhere.

Nothing is THIS, and nothing is THAT! It is what you make of it by taking it within the Narrative of life and making something real and personal of it! Nothing is written on the pages of economic texts, nor on the pages of poli sci...it is all writ on our hearts.

REASON cannot comprehend how RELIGION frees the chameleon soul of man to SIN, repent, run free, and make better. Reason says to love the sinner, but hate the sin. No. Love the sinner. Edit sin out of the narrative, but hate nothing, lest you become wise in the ways of hatred. The one and only thing which denies a sinner forgiveness...is that sinner's own self-hatred, nothing else. Abjure hatred, and flee its leprous touch.

Any viewpoint is God's viewpoint, and if you commit yourself to it in a godly manner, a great truth will be discovered within your life.

I need coffee to make sense of my life!
