Great to see Julia Sweeney still getting the recognition she deserves . . .

Anybody know the name of the guitar/instrument Jill's using in this video? I'd really like to check it out seeing as from what I can tell it's got an awesome sound.

Relax. It says so also in the Bible; what you give out gets back to you. It is an old wisdom teaching in many cultures. And who has said it is a "science" -- I can't believ Oprah said THAT. Of course Obama would not be able to present some sort of "mystic silliness left wing" into government, you know it as well as I. (If I had a vote' I would put it on Obama.)

"It says so also in the Bible; what you give out gets back to you" Actually, Maurice, the bible does not say this. (try finding it) The bible pretends we do virtuous things for god, and god rewards us for them. Really, we are rewarded by the results of our work. That is, if we are helpful, others will also be helpful, and the group will prosper. This is simple math, not magic.

I think I can find it. If not...or I go to some other religions. Anyhow, it does nort matter so much because what we think we creat in life -- we manifest. I see it in my lie and I see it all around me.

Nice going Maurice. Magical thinking is great. Toss the truth and believe whatever you wish to believe. If something isn't in your religion, just make it up and pretend. Ignore reality till it bites you on the Ass. (and do the same when spelling too ... )
