Nellie Zimmerman museum exhibit.
Friend my Nellie Zimmerman myspace tribute site!
The first Nellie Zimmerman Day.
Spent some time whale watching on youtube.com and other websites and reading other blogs!! Whew!! What some folks write!! One guy had a real fight going on between two ladies and another GUY!! All three were after the same guy!! Talk about expressions of jealousy!! And it was there,..online,..where anyone could read about it!! I mean,..jealousy! Who hasn't felt it? Online,..sometimes,..it can be so obvious, and I often wonder just what drives people to expressing it on their computers in ways that make it perfectly obvious to the world. Violence and jealous expressed online,..I do believe,..are obvious signs of what a person would be capable of doing in real life if they have a desparate need for attention. Look at the Columbine murderers and the progenitor of the massacre at Virginia Tech. Each of these killers expressed themselves violently online,..cursing out their enemies and expressing their jealousy in vile language and vivid descriptions of what they were going to do when they got the chance to the people that they resented. People,..whose success that they resented,..were singled out in specialized blogs,..which first reviled the victims. This was followed up by detailed descriptions of what the killers would like to do with their victims,..a sort of mental frottage. One of the most obvious signs of people, like Cho and the Columbine killers, and people with like tendencies is that they have the habit of blaming their victims for their own murders!! Talk about weird!! Blaming the folks,..who were killed,..for their own deaths!! I was talking to my PhD in psychology friend a few weeks ago. He was giving me his latest theory on online psychosis and his newest theory on how people present themselves to others online. This guy is a college professor,..whose research specialties get run by me because I just sit and say,.."Yeah! Yeah!! Yeah! That sounds good!!" The latest theory of my intellectual friend goes that posting online has an element of just being between the poster and his/her computer. Thus,..a person puts their "true self" into their blog or what they want to write online. If this theory is correct,..then,..a person is exposing what they really are online!! A similar theory is that whatever you most accuse another person of,..that is what you,..yourself,..are most guilty of!! So if a person tells me in their blog that they think that I'm a stinker or worse,..what they are really telling me that that is what they are themselves!! People project their own opinion of themselves on others in their blogs or other online writings!!!! Don't ask me to explain the reasoning behind these mental perambulations of my friend, who has more intellect in his left thumb that I have in my entire brain!! I doubt if I could follow his reasoning,..but as he has more college degrees than any six people I know,..I'll take his word on his "theories on online psycholgy of personalty exposition!!" Considering a certain real life situation: "Sometimes when one is not permitted to step around a certain situation, ..One can still step OVER it!" A friend of mine and I were talking about such things the other night...as we sat and talked of such things..in our lives and just how we have lived our lives. My friend thinks not. How can one test score measure the whole sum of a human life? And yet,..she and I both know that there are those in this world,..who would reduce a person's real life as that person has lived it,..not down to what a person has done with their life or how faithful a person has been in their marriage or how one has actually treated the people around one,..or what one has written about one's life or one's beliefs,..or how one has actually lived one's life or believed and how one has lived up to the values in one's life,..there are people,..who will reduce one's life down to one written test score given at a specific time on a specific date in an environment that might not be conducive to one's abilities or disAbilities,..and then,..make predictions as to just how one might act in any given situation based on that test score..and not based on how one has acted in one's real life,..no matter how noble one's life or belief system has been or could be. I sat quite numbly and listened to my friend's life story...as I have sat and listened to other folks' life stories and I have sat and wondered about how people have the ability to treat some folks as badly as those folks have been treated by others in this world. I sat in wonder and was quite amazed that my friend is still going through this life with her sanity..complete. My friend's other question on life was,.."Just how much should you love another person?" My answer was,.."T. J.,...there is no limit on how much you can love another person. You can love another person,..but you don't have to love their actions..at times. And no one has the obligation of staying with or putting up with another person..if that person is trying to destroy you,...no matter how much you "love" them or they say that they "love" you. Such "love" isn't love. Such "love" is merely one person trying to manipulate or use another person in the name of love." (Written for fun!!) At age sixty, Frieda Birnbaum just had two healthy twin boys!! She is several years older than I am and she is still saying,.."My body! My choice!!" Her having two healthy twin boys has me saying in shock,.."My God!" I can just see the scenes in my mind that this new development could bring about!! Heh!: My seventy year old husband is looking at me in a whole new way! I haven't seen this look in his eye for years!! My twenty six year old son is hinting about how nice it would be to have a baby sister or brother! This is getting ridiculous!! Hubby's 102 year old Catholic auntie,..who lives in the local nursing home, but keeps up with the news on the internet,..gave me the eye yesterday and asked me if hubby and I have gotten started on her next great niece or nephew! "Your husband is a youthful seventy years old!" says she "And you aren't even sixty yet!! There is still hope for you,..you, two, are just spring chickens!" Then,..the good Catholic auntie glowers at me,.."You,..two,.. aren't using Birth control. are you?" Son says that my reticence about accepting the fact that sixty year old women can have babies means that I am not keeping up with "recent scientific developments!!" (Yeah! Right!!) I get a call from the nursing home warning me that 102 year old auntie has decided to move in with her 98 year old boyfriend,.."Petey!!" (She likes younger men!!) On my next visit to 102 year old auntie,..she tells me with a gleam in her eye that she believes in "in vitro" fertilization" and she and "Petey" are going to start life over again! (Then,..I wake up..screaming,.."Just say,.."No!! Just say,.."No! I have a right to say,.."No!") We, each, are living out our own life stories,..and if we tell our stories well enough,..perhaps,..through our stories,..we can live forever! (Just a thought!! :D)
