Back at the Earth Module.

Dropped back on the home planet.  From the world of jungle to the world of thorns and cactus.  A slower pace is welcome.  New Zealand was a bit frantic trying to run around day by day finding a new home every night.  Travel does expand the mind.  Large cities are fascinating in small doses, but nowhere Kadizzle would want to live.  Spending so much time in the middle of nowhere you easily forget the beehive atmosphere cities have.  Humans spent millions of years in small clusters in the jungles and forest.  We were not meant to live in hives.  Consumerism will kill us.  People buzzing around buying useless crap.  The marketing of expensive useless crap is amazing.  The sheer volume of potions and creams for sale was amazing.   Somehow time is amazing.  If you have a twenty five dollar watch that tells you it is ten o clock,  and a five thousand dollar watch that tells you the same thing. what is the difference?   How can you make a woman's purse cost hundreds of dollars?  We have become a society of trying to prove how much money we have by spending a fortune on ordinary things that really don't matter.   What is the magic of buying something?  Does it give you a sense of power?  Seeing shopping fever in full bloom is educational.  Back in New Zealand the most expensive stores would not let you in.  No, you had to wait outside in line to get ripped off.  Then the guy dressed very nicely would escort a few people in to rip them off.  Absolutely amazing you are going to shop for a five thousand dollar watch and they are going to make you wait until it is your turn to be robbed.  Being exclusive is so important. 

Back to the desert.  Rain has been pouring down on this desert like never before.  This desert may turn into a jungle.  There is a lot of snow up on the mountains.  The fires last fall mean all kinds of silt is washing down and so much is getting torn up by landslides.  Winky keeps worrying about Peter Bigfoot.  Poor old Bigfoot is getting wiped out by his creek.  The fire ruined so much forest above him the water is coming down in torrents.  Kadizzle would like to hop on the motorcycle and do a survey.
