DOCENDO DISCIMUS

[scottobear]

Realization from today's walkies. I saw a pair of Indian women walking, one had a child on her arm, and it looked like they were heading off to the grocer...something about seeing them made me happy, set a lot of mental gears in motion. Culture, maternity, exotic fabrics and the like. Discursive thoughts reorganized into a few ideas.

I need to do research on prayer wheels. I think it'd be interesting to maybe paint images on the side of a hard disk, and have it spiritually active every time it spins from data beind read and written. Alternately, maybe paint on the top of music CDs... would those work in the Tibetan faith? Now that I think of it... could you put it on any wheels, or is that bad for some idea? Car Tires, ceiling fans, merry-go-rounds, Ferris Wheels? I wonder if this has even been done before. I imagine that if it's not counter to the beliefs, most likely so.

In Newtie News: He took his meds ok, and has a competitor for "Cute fuzzball at work"... a baby Golden named Dexter. I'm not as free to bring Newtie in now, because Dex has Dibs (Dex is Kev's poochie. However, Once Dex is done being, he won't be coming in any more). I get to babysit Dex today whenn Kev goes into his meetings... added bonus, I don't have to go to the meetings! :)

Thanks... it's wonderful what you can find on the net for clip art.

We learn by teaching. :)
