To look at this sculpture correctly you need to imagine that the groove is a track on a 5.25 inch floppy disk for a computer, and that there is a colossal error on it. This is the basic concept in making a particular software disk; one that would refer to the error as itself. Without the particular error, the disk would be considered a copy.
You don’t need to see this picture because the Guinea Worm is practically extinct. The picture is from the Wikipedia page: Dracunculiasis I have included it because it looks as if the body is cooperating.
Just looking at the shapes, I have made up the following terms. There is an old post that organizes the “olmec” and “alltrac” called Hemingway
Going out to dinner is usually fun. The not so obvious part of dinning is reading the menu. For that you will need your reading glasses. This is just a reminder to bring your reading glasses to the restaurant. Thank you.
I’m feeling self conscious about the following Blog post. I know that I have readers and they are not always staff. I think that admitting that I have a mental illness is a shock to readers who are not staff. I’m sorry; this might be a disconnect. The truth that I have been talking about mental illness the whole time is apparent to readers that have been with me for a while. There are lots of posts that deal with the “conscience” going back several years in Gevluef. Considering that you are a new reader, I apologize. There is a lot of awareness of mental illnesses in our communities; and that you are here, I am certain I completely understand the schizophrenia and schizo-affective mental illnesses. You are in good hands because in this Blog I explicitly tell the readers what exactly these are.
There is over three hundred fifty posts in Gevluef. I have accomplished much. I don’t want to lose a reader just because I have felt the need to distinguish myself from schizophrenia. It feels as if I am writing without a history. That’s not right; I have said enough for anyone to understand mental illness. If you don’t care about it, then resolve that you have had a chance to learn what exactly mental illness is.
Please have patience. This is a difficult subject. I have had some major changes recently. I am adjusting to a new circumstance. Though I am not feeling the historical perspective of Gevluef, I know that my ideas are good ones. It just takes time for the ideas to sink in.

I was in Pope Valley in the early seventies. My father purchased a Winery there: Pope Valley Winery. Then when we moved to the Conejo Valley I visited the winery during the summers. It was one of those summers that I learned about Aetna Springs. The most interesting part about Aetna Springs is that President Ronald Reagan visited that very place. I know that Ronald Reagan knew about me; even liked me because our mental illnesses are the same. The Aetna Springs Golf Course was the thing he tried to remember. He would say after remembering the word Aetna, “oh yeah, Aetna Springs; that’s right.”
Just a little bit more about President Reagan. The commonly held view among the experts of his condition as a service is that he wants to be cremated. The fact about this view is wrong. He is really doing just fine at his library in Simi Valley. The reason people think that is because he is the associated person for Cathy James. That is her maiden name. After she got married it became Cathy and Hank. I pray often that he is okay. I believe that he was the greatest president this country has ever had.
The code for my advance readers is as follows: Ronny ff Cathy FF
My mental health is relative. The key word is relative. So, my housing establishes the mental health disposition. Thats because of the kind of mental illness I have; schizo-affective, I affect my community. How I am doing is relative. Doing good presently just means my community is doing good, and I am a function of that. If my housing changes, my mental health disposition would change resultantly. Relative to others. Clinically, the schizo-affective mental illness has a mood component. That is the relative factor I am trying to explain.
I am experiencing the same sort of reality as everyone else. Graduating from high school in the second half of the eighties, community college, and University of California, I’m used to a much more private reality. The changes I’ve experienced since my younger days makes me think there is something wrong with me. I have no confidence. I’m constantly discerning my constituency as adversaries. And, I just have to realize that everyone is experiencing that. The times have changed.
There are three possible factors that could have influenced society. They are probably obvious. Starting in 1988 new born children are given a vaccine immunizing them against chicken pox ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chickenpox#Vaccine). The second possible factor responsible for changing society is the change in our cash currency. The money was changed in 1997. All the bills used to look like the one dollar bills we see today. The new bills are “golden.” My feeling is that society went from Capitalism to Socialism. To give you an idea of how wrong the new money is, let me just say, “you send the bill to congress.” I am referring to the disposition of the society based on the change in the common currency. The last factor to consider why there is a difference in our society from my youth is the internet.
I’m saying that I have a mental illness when in fact there is a major difference in society that has affected everyone. It is a sign of the times.
