may drown in still

Kern River (writ by Merle Haggard) - Tabs, Chords, Lyrics | cowboylyrics

     D                      A
I'll never swim Kern River again.
A
It was there that I met her.
A E E7
It was there that I lost my best friend.
D
And now I live in the mountains.
C#m
I drifted up here with the wind.
A
And I may drown in still water,
E A
But I'll never swim Kern River again.

A
I grew up in an oil town,
D A
But my gusher never came in.
A
And the river was a boundary
A E (E7) E9
Where my darlin' and I used to swim.

A
There's the South San Joaquin,
D A
Where the seeds of the dust bowl are found.
A
And there's a place called Mount Whitney
A E (E7) E9
From where the mighty Kern River comes down.
A
Well, it's not deep nor wide,
A D A
But it's a mean piece of water my friend.
A
And I may cross on the highway,
E A
But I'll never swim Kern River again.

ps re McNulty (glibly) -it signifies his transition from chaotic neutral to neutral good
ggl to, seen before, of int: Character Alignment - Television Tropes & Idioms
The original editions of Dungeons and Dragons drew on the works of Poul Anderson and Michael Moorcock to come up with three alignments: Lawful [or not], Neutral [btw Good/Evil], Chaotic [or not]. Neutrality alternatively represents neither one (as was the case with animals and people who simply didn't care) or a desire to see "balance" between the two. Later editions kept this as the "ethical" axis of the alignment scale and added a second "moral" axis of Good, Neutral, and Evil.

Try and stay, though, inside. See how long you can.

"That in any true life you must go and be exposed outside the small circle that encompasses two or three heads in the same history of love. Try and stay, though, inside. See how long you can."

//seen today as epigr in hardcvr novel recentish, among used bks outsd acapella bks. //

INSIDE. inside of sth, with you, or you and you. dyad tryad family. circle same history of love. through time bound loving.
~ an experiment. sad, not so sad as an experiment: you can't, but see how long you can. you can't but try. see.

If a happy state of things, surprising; if miserable or tragic, no worse than what we invent." int, bcs: needn't. we so little know anyway wh actuality the really already created world.

this 'I'll have to be the one I tell.' so tell.
love, would want to tell you everything. what everything would be? what is everything I would tell you? here is my H paper, here is my suitcase of kingston road, including this green circular tupperware (something even I don't know what to call it, it's not the words, it's a thing even to me that is a thing it is!) here dlww. mdlww.

bar trivia all I have is word association. filburt hazelnut. dead man jim jarmusch. /not information.
not writing for full sentences. freely associating to what end? to tell you, like a secret. a mystery someone trying to find out actively learn answer understand. am the mystery what am. not, 'knowing each other too well to think there are any important secrets" which is like the far end from insanity. the What happened Abe I guess I just got bored and then it was such a long way back. the mind's no mountains. no cliffs sheer fall hold cheap may those who ne'er.

problems w Safari

#dn warn closing mult tabs
& -no reopen recently closed tabs

#dn manage bkrmks well:
-no descrip field; also no tags.
-no sorting (!) by name or address.
*cannot find any discussions re 'BOOKMARKS' in sidebar th are neither bkmrk menu nor bkmrk toolbar. weird. no conception of these? (does Apple not know those BOOKMARKS are over there?)ok
~also am having v irritating problem cannot drag indiv bkrmks or folders. have been able to sometimes. but this is not the first time I can't. at lst happened yesterday too. also cannot drag icons to customize toolbar. v irritating. but perhaps a result of sth I did, my highish risk behavior visiting iffy streaming sites. …see if works next time restart Safari. // ok, yes. it works *until* I drag a folder from among those sidebar BOOKMARKS. which it allows, that one drag. then no more. no dragging *any* bkrmks, nor icons from the customize toolbar dialog. so, it screws up Safari that I try to move a folder from that sidebar. maybe not meant to have folders there. yup. if just indiv bkmrks there, can drag around, no problem. but not folders. which is dumb. bcs if I have a bkmrks that I do not want to see on my toolbar or my menu (wh access fr command line or whatever call it at top of screen), so as to preserve from overflow, then am going to have most bkmrks there just in that sidebar, and am going to want to organize in folders. but no one is even talking about that *there*, the sidebar, so it's as if there's no there there.
it's like where bkrmks that are not anywhere go. like the Unsorted Bkmrks in Frfx. but those make sense bcs that is the default when you add a bkrmk without specifying, ie when you just click the star, you have no added that bkmrk to the Unsorted Bkmrks.
in Safari when add a bkmrk you can't select that BOOKMARKS, and I do not know of a way to add a bkrmk without selecting ~ goes to default, wh is toolbar, dumb. I only noticed sidebar BOOKMARKS bcs D has bkrmks there, not in the menu (where S has inverness and I put weather etc). but how did he come to put those there? wld have to drag over there right? hmm is there some shortcut that does default to there?

#also, problem w Mac OS: cannot singly delete items from trash. that's bananas!

#oh and Safari does not block cookies ie 'website data' even if have selected Privacy > Preferences > ALWAYS block. !!! still accrues. this seems incredible!

Reopen Closed Tabs in Safari 5 [mine=5.1]: | macobsrvr / Edit: Undo Close Tab /works only for last tab closed /see re plugin: GLIMS

Bkmrks hover need show URL in status bar/bubble/tooltip - Safari 3: FAIL | code.ggl/chromium - issue 5246


*bad// HT Manage Safari Bookmarks Efficiently | Cult of Mac /d n find anyth re those Bkmrks that show in library sidebar, ie are neither in bar nor menu // Safari bkmrk handling is poor! (or am I missing sth?) -d n show if site already bkmrkd (like th star on Frfx) -no descrip field -cannot resort by name or address (and no tags either?) // AND I keep being unable to drag to move (though stimes have). this also true of trying drag icon to customize toolbar, so maybe is a problem w my Safari not specific to bkmrks?!

Apple - Safari - Learn about the features available in Safari # BOOKMARKS

*bad// I cannot customize safari toolbar: Apple Support Communities /no replies yet. me, cannot drag within bkrmks or from customize toolbar. maybe a result of sth I did, an iffy webpage ~ (I have prvsly stimes been able to drag, stimes not)

*bad. terrible!// Safari will NOT block cookies, ever: Apple Support Communities | Aug11 -This is true. The "block cookies always" setting in the Privacy tab is not 100% effective (evidently Apple programmers have their own definition of "always"). Make your next computer a PC that runs Linux.


*bad! re Mac OS// Deleting selected items from Trash - MacRumors Forums | 2006/2009 | -the rational solution [is to be able to] perform a deletion on an individual basis. //that's bizarre th you cannot. and the defenders seem to be saying you shld consider evth in the trash ALREADY deleted. ~ but the analogy wld be, emptying the trash = taking it out (for collection > dump). and you wld want to do that periodically so as to have less in your house!

have recently had several moments of not knowing why a website acting strangely: I login and nothing happens. it does not say my login is wrong, but I am not signed in now.
then I remember. this is because I set my Firefox > Preferences to NOT allow cookies except from sites I specify:
Firefox > Preference - Privacy: [UNCHECKED] Accept cookies from sites
- Exceptions = ALLOW specified sites, where I list those I use regularly = blogger, dlcs, gmail.
thedayislikewidewater.blogspot.com *have to add each of my private blogspots individually or it will not redirect! happened yesterday when went to export my blogs, tried to view Owliver got 503 error, thought maybe a problem bcs not logged in for so long, maybe format of blog needed to be updated and too much time now passed. then happened again w Fromnotebooks, realized and added those and also mdlww to cookies Exceptions.
also had to add Evernote, after good while of confusion about whether their site was wack, no online version of my account. then duh need to allow cookies.
also Pinboard.
this will probably happen again. but for now, I do like allowing only cookies from site I say...
