My favorite Gus Bodenheim novel is still “Fifty Bodenheims of Gray” — which was not an erotic thriller of any kind, but rather the true story of the 50-Bodenheims-strong legal team which destroyed Elisha Gray’s attempt at the telephone patent. The thrills! The history! Quite the pageturner.

A Koan Riddle for U:


A NEW monk came up to the master Joshu. "I have just entered the brotherhood and I am anxious to learn the first principle of Zen,"
he said. "Will you please teach it to me?"

Joshu said, "Have you eaten your supper?"

The novice answered, "I have eaten."
Joshu said, "Now wash your bowl."

Avatar 7:29pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

True that, like flu vaccines, the covid-19 vaccines are most likely becoming less effective against mutated variants.
This is why viruses succeed so well in Darwin's game: they mutate & evolve so rapidly.
Why so many variants? Mainly because
a.) the corporations want to profit from their vaccines & will not inoculate poor people the world over (not the way to forestall a remarkably contagious mutating virus - sorry rich people...)
& - b.) because too great a %age of people in developed nations - most of all the USA - have 'vaccine hesitancy' & won't get it
- so the virus has plenty of opportunity to spread & mutate.
But what is 'less effective' in this actual instance? 75% effective instead of 90, or the like ??
These are *remarkably* effective vaccines. Every study shows the vaccines are *still* very effective @ keeping people out of hospitals - & - out of graves.
They *are* concerned with developing new vaccines for more current variants.

THE STUDENT Doken was told to go on a long journey to another
Radio Station. He was much upset, because he felt that this trip would
interrupt his studies for many months. So he said to his friend,
the advanced student Sogen:

"Please ask permission to come with me on the trip. There are so many things I do not know; but if you come along we can discuss them - in this way I can learn as we travel."

"All right," said Sogen. "But let me ask you a question: If you are hungry, what satisfaction to you if I eat rice? If your feet are lame, what comfort to you if I go on merrily? If your bladder is full, what relief to you if I piss?"
