ground out...Angels and Mariners...one out top of 1st..hmmph...the alphabet is said in myth/legend to have been modeled after a flight of cranes...birds, ducks, geese, cranes, fly in Vs...a sight nowadays not often seen over City Skies...oh...will do something with that...'city skies'...it has a 'ring'!...birds even less noted by City People looking up as the sky...or hearing the honking of the Canadian Geese and looking up...tried to look up to see the Blood Moon Eclipse, but overcast...missed a 'once in a hundred years'...that referring to its length...Mariners made out...Calhoun up...Ohtani to follow...and then Trout...Angels sticking with this line up...hard hit grounder but shift on...one out...'Wonderful Pistachios--let's get crack'n!'...1-0...2-0...another grounder...two out...Ohtani 6-37 since off the DL...blasted...a home run for Trout...Angels 1-0...6-37 is like 200...Calhoun is batting like 200, but that doesn't reflect his latest exploits...long fly out...to top of 2nd...home run off the foul pole for Mariners' Cruz leading off...Angels 1-1...to bottom of 2nd...Pujols flies out...Simmons up...

"Mercury invented the alphabet after watching the flight of cranes."
... ... ...
Cranes fly in V-formation and the characters of all early alphabets, nicked with a knife on the rind of boughs - as Hesiod wrote his poems - or on clay tablets, were naturally angular.
... ... ...
What material Mercury's bag was made of can be discovered in the parallel myth of Manannan, son of Lyr, a Goidelic Sun-Hero, predecessor of Fionn and Cuchulain, who carried the treasures of the Sea (i.e. the alphabet secret of the Peoples of the Sea) in a bag made of the skin of the crane;

a lot of authors go on about the origin of the alphabet...scoring all the way from first Kinsler...rookie catcher Arseia rips a double down the right field line...misspelled Arcia 'Garcia' yesterday, or before...hard to 'hear' spellings...not likely I have it right yet...Angels 2-1...Fletcher up...'few feet foul'...could have been home run...2-2...W...Calhoun up...two out...oh!...maybe figured out of a riddle!...Calhoun waps a double down, again, the right field line...two rbis...Ohtani up...high fly out...Angels 4-1...to top of 3rd...the riddle:

In Gwion's Can y Meich (Song of the Horses), there is a series of "I have been's." One of them is: "I have been a crane on a wall, a wondrous sight."

somethings I can't tell..:)...maybe because I dunno...and speculation too far afield...Song of Amergin...

So, taken all together, Amergin's claiming to be these animals would point to a sort of "I am the cosmos".

In case you’re asking yourself WTF – which is, of course, “Why the fuss?” right? – Here is a beautiful rendition of The Song, recited by Lisa Gerrard, of Dead Can Dance.
... ... ...
As an example of the later, Marie-Louise Sjoestedt in Celtic Gods and Heroes (19) says, “It has been suggested that this poem, which is a tissue of obscure formulas that puzzled even the mediaeval commentators, echoes the druidic doctrine of metempsychosis; but it simply expressed the pride of the sorcerer, whose art has just brought him triumph over his enemies, and who now parades his talents and declares his power.

Simmons up...runners at corners two out...

The earliest Greek thinker with whom metempsychosis is connected is Pherecydes of Syros;^[8] but Pythagoras, who is said to have been his pupil, is its first famous philosophic exponent.

the term "transmigration" is more appropriate. The word plays a prominent role in James Joyce's Ulysses

According to legend, Pythagoras discovered that musical notes could be translated into mathematical equations when he passed blacksmiths at work one day^[179] and heard the sound of their hammers clanging against the anvils.^[179] Thinking that the sounds of the hammers were beautiful and harmonious, except for one,^[180] he rushed into the blacksmith shop and began testing the hammers.^[180] He then realized that the tune played when the hammer struck was directly proportional to the size of the hammer^[180] and therefore concluded that music was mathematical.

post 7/25 I was going on about Pythagoras...and noted in reading the part about ratios...in fact, I think I read Pythagoras for all mathematics had a system of ratios...or something...for sometime...anyway, with thoughts about ratios, I noted the final score of the game 7/26...12 to 8...or maybe it was the game that was 14-5 or something...back to back hits for Upton and Pujols...two on no outs...anyway, I took the time to search out if it was a famous ratio...like the golden section...but no...only thing I found was the aspect ratio for really wide landscape photography...photos have standard ratios...8 by 11 typing paper is a ratio...ratios are all over...that whimsy passed...but, but then I'm reading about the letter V...and V for Venus...another base hit...bases loaded?...maybe Pujols made out...Arcia up again with runners on..."and he lines that one into right field!...who is Francisco!?"...two rbis...and find the Pentagram of Venus...Angels make out...Angels 10-2...to top of 6th...runner on second two outs...

quote

The pentagram of Venus is the path that Venus makes as observed from Earth. Successive inferior conjunctions of Venus repeat very near a 13:8 orbital resonance (Earth orbits 8 times for every 13 orbits of Venus), shifting 144° upon sequential inferior conjunctions. The resonance 13:8 ratio is approximate. 8/13 is approximately 0.615385 while Venus orbits the Sun in 0.615187 years.

atmosphere is so thick its like being 3,000 feet under the ocean...and the surface so hot it melts lead...and the atmosphere a mix of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide...this to say it isn't very hospitable...Venus doesn't have a moon, or a tilt, and orbits really slow, and backwards to all the other planets...it's a mess, if one considers all the synchronicities to make life possible on earth...but then there are other synchronicities...Hal Clement wrote a tale about an alien from a very hot world...Mercury?...brb...

quote

The novel concerns an interplanetary narcotics agent who is forced to work on an incredibly cold world (from his point of view) — so cold that the atmosphere he breathes (sulfur) is a yellow solid. The planet is in fact Earth, and he teams up with natives of the alien planet (humans) in his attempt to stop the smuggling of a dangerous drug (tobacco) to Sirius. Although the story involves both aliens and humans, it is told primarily from an alien perspective.

Mariners made out...Barria relieved...bullpen mopping up...Angles swinging away...bottom of 7th...one out...but, but Venus does have a 'goldilocks zone'...stand up double for Pujols...Valbuena pinch hit for Simmons...

quote

Just because a planet or moon is in the Goldilocks Zone of a star, doesn't mean it's going to have life or even liquid water.
After all, Earth isn't the only planet in the Sun's Goldilocks Zone - Venus and Mars are also in this habitable zone, but aren't currently habitable.

well, NASA has it now there is liquid water on Mars...kind of like the under ice lakes in the Antarctic...Kinsler gets a gift double...Pujols scores?...Arcia up...he's set a major league record for a rookie's first two games...ground out...Angels 11-2....thought is that it's brineish...full of minerals and salts, which keeps it from freezing...the upper atmosphere of Venus has blackish blotches that come and go...and a thought is this is caused by micro-organisms living in a goldilocks zone in the atmosphere...

Is there life adrift in the clouds of Venus?

March 30, 2018 by Terry Devitt, University of Wisconsin-Madison

In a paper published online today (March 30, 2018) in the journal Astrobiology, an international team of researchers led by planetary scientist Sanjay Limaye of the University of Wisconsin–Madison's Space Science and Engineering Center lays out a case for the atmosphere of Venus as a possible niche for extraterrestrial microbial life.

wonder if Hal Clement has a song of 'I have beens...'..lol...rumor among the Mysterions is that there are bacteria in the vacuum of space, and are attaching themselves to the Space Station...runner on...Mariners being stubborn...another hit...previous a home run...now two on...Angels 11-3...maybe game will get to 13:8!...

NASA astronauts successfully sequenced the DNA of microbes found aboard the International Space Station, marking the first time unknown organisms were sequenced and identified entirely in space. The astronauts found the mystery microbes were two commonly associated with the human microbiome.

These spacewalks were conducted by cosmonauts, who collected material from the Russian part of the ISS using cotton swabs, which were sent to Earth for analysis, Shkaplerov said.

"And now it turns out that somehow these swabs reveal bacteria that were absent during the launch of the ISS module," Shkaplerov told TASS. "That is, they have come from outer space and settled along the external surface. They are being studied so far, and it seems that they pose no danger."
