A quote: “The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood.” ~~ Otto von Bismarck
I’ll start with a story …
*****************************
Old ones are clear. Whatever – whomever – Came Before is no business of the living.
Our business is each other. Food, clothing, shelter, care. The past holds hardship. It holds strife and terror and abuse.
We are not to dwell on this Time of Before. We’re to dwell on each other, here-now-always. Plant a crop – praise our leaders. Raise a new shelter – praise our leaders. They are fierce and wise and keep us safe.
I am wrong but still I want to know. What is out there, up here, over the next hill and the one after that.
I hear stories.
****************************
Now, it’s your turn.

GWB says: Ugh. I told them they were going to need a LOT of vinegar and would have to clean it daily. The humidity is too high here, and the atmosphere composition just different enough that mold was going to grow on that monstrosity, no matter what material they made it out of. But they wouldn’t listen, noooo.
“But the experts back home told us it was mold and mildew proof!”
They wouldn’t listen to the real science. Nor to Grandmother’s home remedies.
And now, here I am back again, to clean up their mess. Literally.
(Sorry, but the idea of a green pyramid was just weird, and led my brain down the paths of weirdness. 🙂 )
