Yes, that's the Dude. I assume Mustafa would find that position as offensive
as yours or miriam's,but maybe not. ... or ... he didn't have my email. Anyway
I'm glad I don't have to deal with his rants anymore.

Abby,
If you believe in the God who cares for all life, who promotes
brotherly(Sisterly) love, respects all people and all creatures, and promotes
compassion and Love, then you have the right God. It doesn't matter who
Mostafa believes in, or for that matter what Carl Jarvis believes in. Just so
long as it works for you.
Carl Jarvis, still looking in the looking glass waiting for the face to appear.

Yesterday, Friday, August 16, 2019, our new contract showing it began
on July 1, 2019, arrived via email. It was only a mere 46 days late.
Just a simple message: "Please review, sign and return as quickly as
possible." In my life as a blind man, 1965-2019, I have seen services
for the blind go full circle from careless and indifference to
indifference and careless. And saddest of all is the lack of outrage
by the Service Providers.
Back in 1965 I was 30 years old, and full of energy. But at 84 I am
not so fast to head out the door waving my flag and shouting my Cause.
I'll continue protesting from my office computer, but that only brings
replies from other old timers.
When I stepped out of leadership roles in the WCB, I said it was up to
the next generation to determine their fate. So be it with the
quality of services now being delivered...or not being delivered.

A lot of humidity here too, like 89%. Very uncomfortable. But it
hasn't been hot for the past several days. You're lucky to be capable
of walking, something I can barely do. Also, you have someplace
beautiful to walk. One of the things I'm grateful for is that I
traveled to so many interesting places while I still had some useable
vision and could walk. By the way, did the state ever send you your
contract for this coming year?

Back in the 1960's, when I embraced Full Gospel Religion...or
whatever "Born Again" folks called themselves, the approach toward
'"spreading the Good News", was aggressive, unrelenting and
repetitious. It was embarrassing to me, and eventually it was a
piece of what drove me away from religion. I see that I also have
another message from Mostafa this morning. He is on a religious
mission, and there is nothing we can say that will prove to him that
his overbearing approach will turn more people away, than it will
"enlighten" them.
But his emails are easily handled, and are not nearly as irritating
as the Sex Spam I must delete every morning.
Of course I never open any of these pesky notes, and from time to
time I do look at Mostafa's ramblings. And I usually wind up asking
myself, "Self, why do you read this man's babble? He is incapable of
carrying on a conversation."
We've had interesting weather in August. From the mid eighties, it
has turned cool with morning fog that lasts well into the late
afternoon and the highs are around 70. A little rain, but not even
much of that. Still, even with 80% humidity, or higher, our weather
sure beats the high heat in other parts of the nation. Perfect
weather for a nice, slow morning walk.

I've been receiving messages from Mustafa ever since he was banned
from the list. Interestingly, it's impossible to block the messages
or rather, I do block them, but he uses different email addresses so
he's, apparently, unblockable. Not to worry, I just delete them, but
it's weird. He must have been trained by a computer expert!
