Arts & Humanities - 26 August 2006

I am looking for someone who will aid me in purchasing some Star Wars novels, specifically those of the NEW JEDI ORDER. My problem is not the money per se, but the mode of purchase. I live in Ghana, have no access to a credit card. However, I can easily change our local currency and buy dollars. How to get the money over to you in the US would be my problem. Currently, I don;t have any relatives who could help me out with that. I would like to know whether someone has a relative or friend working with USIS or USAID or UN or some organisation working in Ghana so that I can pay the person here (in foreign currency) so that he/she could transfer the money per credit card/ bank draft etc. I cannot use the bank draft because our local banks take far too much as commission. For example, assuming a cost of $10 on something, the bank collects $30. I hope you understand my problem. Please mail me or IM me on kosikumah@yahoo.com

Hey there
Do you even notice that it’s all wrong?
That we’re all wrong?
That I am just a girl you bring along.
But I know you are searching for something more.
And I can’t stand in your way
Anymore.
I don’t know where things fell apart
But they did
And we grew apart.
So here I say
Goodbye.
It’s time,
It’s time,
Goodbye.
Just don’t stick around and ask me why
Just move on
Leave me now
When you see me in a crowd, just pass me by.
Because I know deep down that
We’re not right.
It’s not right.
So take this song
And move along.
And as I cry
It’s okay.
I’m okay.
It’s time,
It’s time,
…goodbye.

are you more alarmed by something that might befall you later, or by something you might miss out on?

extra credit: what steps can you take NOW to avoid these unpleasant consequences LATER?

Specifically, I have a crateful of oil paintings and piles of pencil sketches and drawings. I keep the crate open and the paintings are exposed to some sunlight every day. The illustrations are filed away into shelves in shadow but as the years pass I worry about the aging of both the paper and the various leads.

Isn't it rather self-defeating, to have gobs of chubbieness hanging out where it should not be flaunted ? To some of us males, we shudder at the sight, simply because it makes us nauscious & extremely queasy,...

Oh I'm quite sympathetic, as i used to weigh about 473 lbs. myself - about 8 years ago.

I got sick of seeing myself every day, so I gave in and bought a bowflex. It took a long long looonnngg time, but I'm better now, and i still have a little self indulgence with the goodies - in moderation. I'm not ready to give up the little things that makes living worth - living my life a little better.

im getting disillusioned. Some of the reasons i can think of are religious, karma and conscience. Anyone has other unique reasons? I'm not religious and i dun believe in karma (seems so selfish), so i believe tt i hav a conscience. Sometimes i wonder why i'm do all these kind deeds which are not appreciated and get me treated like a fool. And all these obnoxious and ugly ppl who jus make me wanna give up doing them, like wat i'm doing jus benefits them only. Feel like minding my own business now, go into self-isolation and leave them. Jus wanna hear other reasons which may convince me otherwise, and from ppl who may hav had similar experiences...

Were you sucessful? Did you find a market for the book? Was it expensive? Did you end up with boxes of books in your garage that you are unable to shift?

Please could you let me know of you experiences.

Thanks
