Don't do it said the voice of reason
By Robert Alan Moore – 10.11.18
...but the voice seemed to be terribly far away, and faint, almost drowned out by the siren cll of the siren coming from the ambulance that was hurtling down Te Atatu Road, triggering my imagination off in a completely different direction, leaving me wondering what desperate thing could be happening around here on the road, or out the peninsula in the river, perhaps a jogger had collapsed of heat exhaustion, or a rugby player, a prop or hooker, had a broken neck during a Saturday game up at Te Atatu South Reserve, or a fire somewhere - it might have been a fire truck going by. So I sit here staring at my small writing pad, unable to dig into my mind, almost as if the time...but the voice seemed to be terribly far away, and faint, almost drowned out by the siren cll of the siren coming from the ambulance that was hurtling down Te Atatu Road, triggering my imagination off in a completely different direction, leaving me wondering what desperate thing could be happening around here on the road, or out the peninsula in the river, perhaps a jogger had collapsed of heat exhaustion, or a rugby player, a prop or hooker, had a broken neck during a Saturday game up at Te Atatu South Reserve, or a fire somewhere - it might have been a fire truck going by.

A most prized, or useful, possession
By Murray Rutledge – 09.04.16
Oh crikey ... much valued possession ... maybe my brain because there is still so much to explore. Mankind is intent on exploring all the dead planets which will all pass away in the promise of a new heaven and a new earth ... but our brain, our intelligence, I'm sure, will be transportable with our new bodies.
The speed of light is 186000 miles per second, but the speed of thought, instantaneous.
The answer is 'yes', maybe I can read your thoughts and answer them before they are uttered. Taxi drivers do it all the time with mindreading ... sit there, don't tell me where you are going ... delve into your mind to read your thoughts. Go the wrong way ... that works ... they will soon tell you!
Imagine all the speed of thought racing around the block. Our thoughts can do anything we want them to ... so we can have a thought race. It does not require fitness or ability ... just think, maybe a thinking referee to find which thought won the race. What category shall we have – speed thought, obstacle thought, backward or reverse thought, and my favourite, a no thought race? How long can you not think for?
I know we believe some people don't think at all ... well this can be an official race ... who can not think for the longest time!. What do you think?
