65. Dangling a Carrot = Playing with Emotions.

"The ocean -
Vast. Deep.
A limitless pool of life."

So starts a Poem, accompanying a photograph, underwater, looking up at various bull-kelp suspended from the surface; the sun of life feeding an intriguing splash of light.

- A double page Ad on the second page of a caring national magazine. An Ad for a pipeline that sets out to protect our oceans.
- So say you are a CEO needing to feed your 20 employees; you are the one whose job it is to bring in the client; how far would you go to entice? 'Well, just watch me!'

That said, it's confirmed; there's a "limitless pool of life" out there. Let's call them 'suckers.' In the real world, can you blame the ones who find you? There's a fool born every minute (and a blog created every half/second, so I read).

To separate wheat from chaff, to determine truth from reality - before the signature goes down to paper to 'close the deal,' we need to spread the puzzle on the table. To assess ALL THAT LIES CONTAINED WITHIN, let's punch up the font size of the core that presents most of the hidden nasties. Then, I say, make illegible small print VERBOTEN!

Do not be fooled by the dichotomy of gentle association. A pipeline is a pipeline; it carries cargo sold for bucks to distant lands! Nothing is full-proof. Do you drive a car? Watch TV? I do. Hypocrites all, demanding our creature comforts. Life continues to be about survival. Is sustainment even feasible? Could it be re-attained? By controlling reproduction? Could we grow back to a nature's equilibrium and live in balance? This is now our species dilemma.

In the meantime, unless a big foot comes down, I will continue to pursue this endeavour to its natural end. While what is done is done, I look forward to leaving behind my rendition of what may help others prevent the miseries of time, energy, costs, and emotions I continue to endure.

Remember, I am still awaiting response from the transcript office about my ordered transcripts. There appears to be a FLY in the ointment. Is it contagious?
