Twas brillig and the slithy toves


Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

‘Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!’

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought –
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

‘And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!’
He chortled in his joy.

Postscript. Hannah… Thanks for alerting me to that vid! xoxoxox

Omniscient, omnipotent god

Can omniscient god, who
knows the future, find
the omnipotence to

Oranges and Lemons

Gay go up and gay go down,
to ring the bells of London town.


Oranges and lemons,
say the bells of St. Clements.

Bull’s eyes and targets,
say the bells of St. Marg’ret’s.

Brickbats and tiles,
say the bells of St. Giles’.

Halfpence and farthings,
say the bells of St. Martin’s.

Pancakes and fritters,
say the bells of St. Peter’s.

Two sticks and an apple,
say the bells of Whitechapel.

Pokers and tongs,
say the bells of St. John’s.

Kettles and pans,
say the bells of St. Ann’s.

Old Father Baldpate,
say the slow bells of Aldgate.

You owe me ten shillings,
say the bells of St. Helen’s

When will you pay me?
say the bells of Old Bailey.

When I grow rich,
say the bells of Shoreditch.

Pray when will that be?
say the bells of Stepney.

I do not know,
says the great bells of Bow.

Here comes a candle
to light you to bed,
Here comes a chopper
to chop off your head.

The Origins of Oranges and Lemons, I first heard this nursery rhyme from Nineteen-Eighty Four. I like nursery rhymes.

Will McCain and Obama go a grovin’, so late into the night?

Steven just asked me, “McCain and Obama both grovin’ it this year?” after reading this: Bush, McCain and Obama are going to the Bottomers’ Ball at Bohemian Grove?

Damn that’s fucked up. Just creepy. I wonder who’ll be on top, Obama or McCain? See, those are mental images I could have done without. Hahaa…. gross! A bunch of ugly, naked, geriatric men running around in their wrinkly, saggy asses and cupping their imaginary (or even worse: real) breasts… ew!

So, we’ll go no more a-roving
so late into the night,
though the heart be still as loving,
and the moon be still as bright.

For the sword outwears its sheath,
and the soul wears out the breast,
and the heart must pause to breathe,
and love itself have rest.

Though the night was made for loving,
and the day returns too soon,
yet we’ll go no more a-roving
by the light of the moon.

—Lord Byron (1788-1824)

This is what our world leaders (a great many of whom masquerade as conservative christians) get up to during those Bohemian nights. This is the nipple rubber from the film Little Nicky. Take him, add a little Jame Gumb, real or feigned human sacrifices, old men making speeches about how dastardly it is to keep company with women, and you’ve got yourself a great reason to hope Bohemian Grove is in the path of some of these wildfires we’ve been having. (Besides the obvious benefit of having all of these psychopathic mother fuckers in one place when the place burns down.)

For all I know they’re making pâté out of babies and serving them up with cheeses that I’ve never heard of before.

Do we live under a worldwide pederastocracy (rule by pederasts)?

I found Moloch/Molech (the giant stone owl they sacrifice to at the Grove) in Amos:


Amo 5:26 But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
Amo 5:27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.

Moloch
king, the name of the national god of the Ammonites, to whom
children were sacrificed by fire. He was the consuming and
destroying and also at the same time the purifying fire. In Amos
5:26, “your Moloch” of the Authorized Version is “your king” in
the Revised Version (comp. Acts 7:43). Solomon (1 Kings 11:7)
erected a high place for this idol on the Mount of Olives, and
from that time till the days of Josiah his worship continued (2
Kings 23:10, 13). In the days of Jehoahaz it was partially
restored, but after the Captivity wholly disappeared. He is also
called Molech (Lev. 18:21; 20:2-5, etc.), Milcom (1 Kings 11:5,
33, etc.), and Malcham (Zeph. 1:5). This god became Chemosh
among the Moabites.

Chiun
occurs only in Amos 5:26 (R.V. marg., “shrine”). The LXX.
translated the word by Rhephan, which became corrupted into
Remphan, as used by Stephen (Acts 7:43; but R.V., “Rephan”).
Probably the planet Saturn is intended by the name. Astrologers
represented this planet as baleful in its influences, and hence
the Phoenicians offered to it human sacrifices, especially
children.

03594 Kiyuwn {kee-yoon’}
from 03559;; n pr dei
AV – Chiun 1; 1
Chiun = “an image” or “pillar” 1) probably a statue of the Assyrian-Babylonian god of the planet Saturn and used to symbolise Israelite apostasy.

And in Acts:

Act 7:43 Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

Remphan
(Acts 7:43; R.V., “Rephan”). In Amos 5:26 the Heb. Chiun (q.v.)
is rendered by the LXX. “Rephan,” and this name is adopted by
Luke in his narrative of the Acts. These names represent the
star-god Saturn or Moloch.

4481 Rhemphan {hrem-fan’}
by incorrect transliteration for a word of Hebrew origin 03594;; n pr m
AV – Remphan 1; 1
Remphan = “the shrunken (as lifeless)” 1) the name of an idol worshipped secretly by the Israelites in the wilderness.

04445 Malkam {mal-kawm’} or Milkowm {mil-kome’}
from 04428 for 04432;; n pr m
AV – Milcom 3, Malcham 1; 4
Milcom = “great king” 1) the god of the Ammonites and Phoenicians to whom some Israelites sacrificed their infants in the valley of Hinnom 1a) also ‘Molech’ 2) a Benjamite, son of Shaharaim by his wife Hodesh.

Chemosh
the destroyer, subduer, or fish-god, the god of the Moabites
(Num. 21:29; Jer. 48:7, 13, 46). The worship of this god, “the
abomination of Moab,” was introduced at Jerusalem by Solomon (1
Kings 11:7), but was abolished by Josiah (2 Kings 23:13). On the
“Moabite Stone” (q.v.), Mesha (2 Kings 3:5) ascribes his
victories over the king of Israel to this god, “And Chemosh
drove him before my sight.”

03645 K@mowsh {kem-oshe’} or (Jer. 48:7) K@miysh {kem-eesh’}
from an unused root meaning to subdue;; n pr dei
AV – Chemosh 8; 8
Chemosh = “subduer” 1) the national deity of the Moabites and a god of the Ammonites 1a) also identified with ‘Baal-peor’, ‘Baal-zebub’, ‘Mars’ and ‘Saturn’ 1b) worship of this god was introduced into Jerusalem by Solomon and abolished by king Josiah of Judah.
