THE SOCRATIC METHOD...

 

The Socratic Method calls for common sense and common speech.
We shall now demonstrate.
Please continue.

NOM-NOM-NOM-OMMmmmmmmmm...........

 

BHINDI DEMONSTRATES MEDITATION ON "N-OMmmmmmmm......."
Whilst leaving his mouth too full to question the
existential nature of his enterprise, leading us to -

Tinker, Tailor, Philosopher, Spy...Who IS THIS?

 

"Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature.
And that is because, in the last analysis, we ourselves
are a part of the mystery that we are trying to solve."*


Bhindi: "I thought Max Planck said that."


Peanut: "You need to ask that in the form of a question."


Bhindi: "Like on the T.V. show "Jeopardy?" or something?"


Peanut: "Exactly."


Bhindi: "So, you are comparing Alex Trebek to Socrates?"


Peanut: "Indeed. You formed a question.^ Well done."


Bhindi: "What if I compared Alex Trebek to Max Planck?"


Peanut: "Please use better question form..."


Bhindi: "Is Alex Trebek of the T.V. Show "Jeopardy" the reincarnation of Max Planck?"


Peanut: "EXQUISITELY DONE, BINDI! BRAVISSIMO!"


Bhindi: "No, I mean, is he?"


Peanut: "Ya, sure, dude, LET'S EAT!"

MYSTEREEEEEEEE

 

WHADDA-WHADDA-WHADDA HAVE WE HERE?

 

LOOK WHAT CAME IN THE MAIL FROM FAIRY IN ENGLAND!

 

YUM-YUM, Today mom got a BIG,
GIGANTIC, FLAT BOX FROM 
FAIRY IN ENGLAND!

 

WONDER WHAT IT 
COULD POSSIBLY BE?!


 

MOM has felt "beleaguered" lately, so she
was very happy to get a present PLUS
she also has lots of wunnerful emails from
Fairy about her mum's Birthday yet to open
because she wants to savor every moment
Fairy shares with us...
AND NOW THIS BIG, FLAT
BOX WITH STICKERS 
AND
EVERYTHING AMAZING...hmmmm,
WHEEEEEEEK!
WHATEVER COULD IT BE?
(OR WHOM?)

 

"ARE YOU PANDA-PIG'S
SANCTUARY? HAVE I COME
TO THE RIGHT PLACE IN MY
BIG, FLAT BOX?
(It was a long flight, you understand...")

 

"Oh, I'm staying here no matter...mmmm, scrunchies
in the sun! Home at last! Closing my eyes from jet-lag..."


FAIRY, HOW ON EARTH DID YOU
SEND US SUCH A WONDERFUL 
PRESENT IN A FLAT BOX WHICH
WE STILL HAVEN'T OPENED
BECAUSE OF MOM'S HORIZONTAL,
YET RAPIDLY VANISHING
BELEAGUERMENT?!
WHADDA-WHADDA-WHADDA-
WOW?!

 

I Came a Long Way, Didn't I?

 

BY AIR MAIL!

 

Something tells me I'm going to be
very, very HAPPY here in America!
Look, here's a new friend now, GEEZ,
he's as big as a humpty-back camel! 

 

I LOVE MY NEW HOME AND VINNY
IS SO HAPPY TO FINALLY HAVE SOMEONE TO PLAY WITH ALL THE TIME AND SNUGGLE AND I LOVE BHINDI AND YUM-YUM AND MOM AND JUST
PURR IN THE WARMTH OF HER NECK AS SHE FALLS ASLEEP...TyPiNg...
(Do Americans ever gain ALTITUDE?)
Sweet Dreams.
I don't have a name yet.
Mom calls me "NewPig."
I love you.

May I?

 

Vinny: "I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world. 
Yeah, me!"


Yum-Yum: "Vinny, Albert Einstein said that, not you."
Vinny: "Well, I'm on Runabout and you're not, so..."
Bhindi: "Don't worry! Gonna get that Piggie, YumYum, gonna get him good & steal his whEEk-grass!"


Vinny: "Nom-Noms, mmm... MOM! Need to start a new crop for me...Oh right, she's still "in the shop" so we'll just have to settle for watermelon, at least that's what my imagination saw her chopping up for us last night: Water-Mel-NOMS!
Sometimes I'm just so awesome I just can't stand myself, either...mu-ah-ha-haAAAH!"

Mom's Morning Sunshine!

 

Sometimes when mom doesn't feel well
this is all it takes to pick her right back up:
ME!

TAJ SNUGGLING WITH MR. ELEPHANT (from Giz)

 

We miss our piggies so much...
but, thanks to our friend, Giz, we 
still have Mr. Elephant and the scent
of all the piggies who loved to
snuggle him.
Thanks, Giz...
The next post is dedicated to you.

TO OUR PRECIOUS GIZ:

 

Dear Giz, we were very happy to receive
the email about how things are going...
So many of us love you and pray for you
and wish like crazy we could be there
for you in every way possible and there
are even more of us wanting to be there
in every way IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE
WE ARE MODS! BLACK SHEEP
MODS AND PROUD OF IT!
We hope your hummingbirds
and dragonflies and garden are
buzzing with life and renewing yours.
We hope you can somehow look
into yourself and at Giz, and smile.
We know you can,
because we know YOU!


These pics are from the birthday surprise
you sent (back when I had hair but that's
an entirely different story, thank goodness.)


I still snuggle YumYum and Elephant and
dream of you and sometimes - like now - cry a little...but they're good tears, don't worry.


So often we never know how many
lives we have touched just by being ourselves.


So, we wanted to thank you for touching ours.
love,
Chana/YOUR SKATR!
YumYum
&
some new friends:
Bhindi & VinnyGuinea
