Rancheria and the Hooligans: please post what you have decided I am. We'll see if you know yourselves as well as you think you know me.

Oh Boy.. It's to bad Iron Mike is not here fr this one. I will have to contact him and get an experts view..!
Because I don't know where these functions come from. But again I feel like if these were real functions.. What difference would it make. Most likely would not change my life at all. If I knew about them.

And answer what...Who going to be the judge of how well we no ourselves. Are you going to be sitting oin your throne again..Just what is the point.

You need to get a job.. You obviously have to much time on your hands.

Go play with your Christmas Tree..!

Sorry, but you can tell Dorothy I wasn't in town today, and we don't cut trees for decoration. Must have been a false prophet!

The Real Meaning Of "The Wizard of Oz"

"The Wizard of Oz," written by L. Frank Baum, is not a mere child's story.

What is "Oz" a symbol for? Ounces. What is measured in ounces? Gold. What is the yellow brick road? Bricks or ingot bars of gold. The character known as the Straw Man represents that fictitious, ALL CAPS, legal fiction - a PERSON, the Federal U.S. Government created with the same spelling as your birth name. Remember what the Straw Man wanted from the Wizard of Oz? A Brain! No juristic person - legal fiction - paper corporation has a brain because he/she has no breath of life. What did he get in place of a brain? A certificate: a Birth Certificate for a new legal creation. He was proud of his new legal status, plus all the other legalisms he was granted. Now he becomes the epitome of the brainless sack of straw who was given a certificate in place of a grain of common sense.

Now, what about the Tin Man? Does Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) recall anything to mind? The poor TIN Man just stood there mindlessly doing his work until his body literally froze up and stopped functioning. He worked himself to death because he had neither heart nor soul. He's the heartless and emotionless creature robotically carrying out his daily task as though he were already dead. He's the ox pulling the plow and the mule toiling under the yoke. These days, his task masters just oil him nightly with beer and place him in front of a hypnotic television until his very existence no longer has any meaning or value. His masters keep him cold on the outside and heartless on the inside in order to control any emotion or feeling that might arise.

The Cowardly Lion was always too frightened to stand up for himself. Of course, he was a bully and a big mouth when it came to picking on those smaller than he. (Have you ever noticed how bullies are really the biggest cowards? They act as though they have great courage, but, in reality, have none at all. They roar, but with no teeth of authority to back them up.) When push came to shove, the Cowardly Lion always buckled under and whimpered when anyone of any size or stature challenged him. He wanted courage from the Grand Wizard, so he was awarded a medal of "official" recognition. Now, although remaining a coward, his official status allowed him to be a bully, but with officially recognized authority. (He's not unlike the Attorneys who hide behind the Middle Courts of the Temple Bar.) et al ad infinitum.

What about the trip through the field of poppies? Did you notice how this had no narcotic effect on the Straw Man (no brain) or the Tin Man (no heart or soul)? They weren't real people, so drugs could not influence them. The Wizard of Oz was written at the turn of the century, so how could the author have known America was going to be drugged? The Crown has been playing the drug cartel game for centuries. Just look up the history of Hong Kong and the Opium Wars. The Crown already had valuable experience conquering all of China with drugs, so why not the rest of the world? What was the Emerald City? The Federal Reserve System.

Who finally exposed the Wizard for what he really was? Toto, the ugly (or cute, depending on your perspective) and somewhat annoying little dog. Toto means "in total, all together; Latin in toto." What was it that the witch wanted after she alleged that the little dog had bitten her? TOTO. ... everything. Notice how Toto was not scared of the Great Wizard's theatrics, yet he was so small in size, compared to the Wizard, that no one seemed to notice him? The smoke, flames and holographic images of Oz were designed to frighten people into doing as the Great Wizard commanded. Toto simply padded over, looked behind the curtain (the COURT, etc.), saw it was a scam, started barking until others paid attention to him and came to see what all the barking was about. Who was behind the curtain? Just an ORDINARY PERSON controlling the levers that created the illusion of the Great Wizard's power and authority. When Toto pulled back the curtain and completely exposed him, the charade was at an end. (The veil hiding the corporate legal fiction and its false courts was removed.) The Wizard's game was UP. What was he after all? .... a con-man. A FRAUD.

We can see, in this tale, just how loud the bark from a little dog can be. How about YOUR bark? How big is it? Most of us remain silent and wait to be given whatever food and recognition, if any, by our legal master. Let us not forget those pesky flying monkeys. What perfect mythical creatures to represent the Bar Association Attorneys who attack and control the little people for the Great Crown Wizard, the powerful and grand Bankers of Oz: GOLD! How, finally, was the evil witch destroyed? .... pure, clean water LIQUIDATION! How, at last, did Dorothy get home? She simply clicked her heels. She always had the power, and SO DO WE! What would it take to expose the Wizard for what he is, tearing away his veils? We each need only a brain, a heart and soul --- and COURAGE. Then, and perhaps of the greatest importance, we need to learn HOW to WORK TOGETHER. Only "in TOTO," WORKING TOGETHER as ONE Body of the King of Kings, (whatever name or form that may take for each of us), can we have the freedom given to us. Thought this would be refreshing in light of this continual topic and need for resolution.

bh edit: ... to her benefit, what often protected Dorothy throughout her journey was the ruby slippers, which were previously in the possession of the late Witch of the East. In Baum's original story written at the turn of the century, Dorothy's shoes were silver. In other words, she was backed by silver and, therefore, protected against anything that might come her way. The shoes always kept their value and strength even against a scary new banker (or witch in this case). Interestingly, the movie was made just shortly after the Great Depression, which included the government's vicious "gold grab" on behalf of the bankers and wall street.

I've decided that the little part of your Sophiadin brain that loves to find this stuff on the internet as topics to encourage us to talk about your make-up and compare it to ours must be coming from the LIMBIC system of your brain. It's very deep seated--like way down in the brain stem of the Sophiadin_----way, way down there.

I always Google to discover where Sophy picks up his stuff on the internet. I found out where he got the Wizard of Oz allegory, and the author he didn't quote or cite for that piece is actually listed as "author unknown." So he didn't borrow it from a known author, but he borrowed it word for word from a so-called unknown author. He didn't share that fact with us--that it was from an unknown author. To me that is an interesting, pertinent fact of the story, especially in this instance. Who wrote this piece about the covert allegory in the 'Wizard of Oz' to explain it to us? Don't ask Sophiadin !! Who revealed all the symbols and story structure to allow us to see how the story represented the politics of the day with the Populist party in the 1890's ? Don't ask the careful carpenter. He is careful not to tell us. Sophiadin doesn't say if the author is unknown or known. As long as we know he is the one to pass it along to us, that's all that matters to his brain.

Now, with the left brain/right brain list of traits: Sophy apparently got that one from the 'PerthNow' Perth, Australia Newspaper.

TO READ SOPHY"S SOURCE OF THE LEFT AND RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS AND TAKE THE VISUAL TEST TO SEE IF YOU ARE more PREDOMINANTLY RIGHT OR LEFT BRAIN DIRECTED, just GOOGLE: 'The Right Brain vs. Left Brain test PerthNow'

I was disappointed that he didn't give us this link, because the visual test of which way the dancer turns is fun to take.--If you see her turn clockwise, you are right brain; and if you see her turn counter-clockwise then you are left brain which is the more common in the population. 8 % see the dancer turn alternately to the right and the left. They must be more equally using their left and right brain hemispheres.

Taking the visual left brain vs. right brain test to see which way the dancer is turning is way more interesting than you, sophiadin_ using their lists of the left brain functions and the right brain functions to make up your own 'test' for us to evaluate our brain hemisphere use. Most importantly for your self esteem issues, you want us to tell you what side of your brain we 'judge' you use--going by the functions we witness you use predominantly. You give us this borrowed list of left and right brain functions to use as the Sophiadin- brain shopping list of your functions. I'd rather take the visual test of the spinning dancer, than the boring ego driven test, and inferiority complex driven test you want us to buy in to.

Like I said, you seem to use your instinctive Limbic part of your brain the most. It appears to be the part of your brain that keeps us from knowing more and learning more and enjoying more.

I use the right side of my brain to see the need to Google your stuff so I don't miss out on the 'big complete picture". Your borrowed list from 'Perth Now' says the right brain predominant people see the big picture. On KR both the right brain and left brain members can just Google your stuff on your thread post starter and go from there.

We don't need to take your test if we just Google your title. By Googling, We can take the fun test you didn't share with us. The fun test you edited out. The fun visual test you don't mention. It must not suit any part of your brain to share that visual test with us. But it suits my brain perfectly for us all to see it. It's trippy.

Sophy, I'll bet you took the interesting visual test of the spinning dancer yourself, you stingy ****. And I would bet you came out right brained, or did you come out left brained. You would want to come out of the test as Right Brained ! If you saw the dancer spinning counter clockwise, and so discovered you were more left brained, maybe that's why you didn't care to share with us??? OMG, we can't have Sophiadin_ being left brained, can we ? That would make his poetic little buddy's poetry even more aphoristic, --if CC were left brained. Is that why?

But with the aid of Google and our abilities to use both sides of our brain, we are always quite a few steps ahead of our 'would be editor', the Limbic driven Sophiadin_

Oh how deep down and 'How Low Can You Go ?" LIMBO Limbo Now with your host of the smallish picture, the detail droppin' Sophia_ (GAINING WISDOM AT YOUR EXPENSE PROJECT) Allow Sophiadin- to lower the bar for you. Or Not.
