today i have been researching the sami people
and their thing called joik.

also this photo from cnn is interesting:

found this out:

interesting to note that 18 in the tarot is the moon card.
in aleister crowley's deck it shows the egyptian god anubis:

"In the Moon card of Aleister Crowley’s Thoth tarot deck we find the image of Anubis in dual form guarding a path passing between two towers. While the image of two canines guarding the path is found in the earliest occult versions of the Moon, the identification of these figures with Anubis has its origins in the Philosophus Ritual of the Golden Dawn:

Hierophant: …The Dogs are the jackals of the Egyptian ANUBIS, guarding the Gates of the East and of the West, shown by the two Towers between which lies the Path of all the heavenly bodies ever rising in the East and setting in the West."

from here:

anubis is the lord of death

Originally, in the Ogdoad system, he was god of the underworld, and his name is frequently thought to have reflected this, meaning something like putrefaction

if this is merely coincidence, it certainly is a strange coincidence.

also unquietmind informed me that:

Squad 18 is particularly important to Manhattan because it's based near the WTC site. 18 was a first responder and lost eight members who were helping people out of the towers..... which has nothing to do with Bush, but for the locals, the 18 means something.

now they've changed it to a girl holding a flag blowing backwards (from the angle they took the photo):

we went to the abandoned building again and got in.
it was towards dusk so we didn't rollerskate.
but we just wanted to see if anyone was around on sundays, which they weren't.
so next sunday we will go there again.
then we were starving so we went to the liffey for a rueben sandwhich and fries.
i was pretty tired and so just zonked out.
i don't have much to say today.
i just want to relax today and not think about anything.
i had a good cry because of all the stress i have been under, and that was a good release. M comforted me and then we made love.

i did send a proposal to the sex worker's art show, but like i said before, i don't know if they want to deal with the technical hassle of it.

so today is the 5rh anniversary of 9-11.
i don't have much to say about that more than what i have already said.

i go back and forth on whether or not to watch the vile propoganda movie "path to 9-11" tonight. and in the middle of the movie the president will interrupt it with a 1/2 an hour speech of lies.
