I'm such a long-term investor, I've never really let go and celebrated what I did with the Hubble telescope.

A Request To Use The Hubble
I wonder if it is possible,
That I could make a request...
To use the Hubble?
And have it not be considered,
An act of good natured vanity.
'The hubble?
What are you talking about?
What is a 'hubble'?
The telescope!
Hubble Telescope.
The one used by scientists,
To locate something in the universe...
Light years away!
'For what purpose?
IF that was possible? '
I've read something by a poet,
That was so far above my head...
My binoculars,
Can not detect the meaning.
That's how far out,
The message is.
It is in a place and time...
That will take millions of years,
To comprehend the sense of it!
And I have a need to locate,
The mind that has created this.
'For what purpose?
IF that was possible? '
'Something' COSMIC is attached,
To the mind of this poet.
And other poets have yet to know it.
And I suspect,
A digesting done comes from dimensions...
No one but that poet can detect.
And I'd like to give it a try.
'Are you pulling my leg? '
Now why would I want to do that?
Are you now implying I am a magician?

The problem with the person who thinks he's a long-term investor and impervious to short-term gyrations is that the emotion of fear and pain will eventually make him sell badly.

Hubble is very close to my heart, and going back to Hubble, because I was there once already in 1993, is really a great privilege for me.

The institutional investor remains the bigger influence on individual trades simply because the institutional investor has more money to support the order and that will have more of an impact on the stock.

Reading This
IF you think I do this for you?
I am happy you believe,
You are worth that kind of premeditated time.
I don't wish to burst your bubble.
Or wish to have you zoom in on me...
Like the Hubble Telescope,
Taking photographs of the cosmic sea!
But in actuality?
If I did not do this because I can...
And get it done for me?
You would not be reading this...
Passing a judgement,
I could care less than horseshhh...
Radish about!
But it is exciting to realize,
I can write something like this...
And 'still' get you pissed!
And 'that' is the bliss I wish you knew!

Hubble Spectrograph Slices Time
park dugout canoe
leave trees standing
knowledge is growing
through Hubble telescope viewing
invisible universe backbone mapping
list astounding revelations exciting
multi-wavelength colorful pictures
newly revealed far-flung galaxies
densely packed dust star clusters
biblical eerie 'pillar of creation'
beautiful 'butterfly' 'bug' nebula
birth of planets around alien stars
probing composition structures
of atmospheres on other worlds
galaxies star clusters studied objects
Hubble imaging across wide slices
of space electromagnetic spectrum
from ultraviolet to near-infrared light
spectrograph slices across billions
of light-years to map filamentary
structure of accelerated universe
to trace distribution of elements
fundamental to life possibilities
reveals never-before-seen infant
galaxies that once existed
when the universe was less
than 500 million years old
astronomers with ambitious star plans
use Hubble to make deepest-ever
portrait universe in near-infrared light
Hubble is significantly
more well-equipped
to explore probe further
characterize the behavior
of mystery dark energy
mysterious little-understood
repulsive force
that is pushing
our universe
further apart at
an ever-faster
increasing rate
mysteries
great cosmic mysteries
await solutions

I will fight in the United States Senate this year to fund a servicing mission to Hubble by 2008, a mission that would potentially increase Hubble's power and efficiency by a factor of 10 and allow us to look back almost to the beginning of the universe.

next glance you glass
at that dragon scarred

remember-
it's no rock
just a clock!

A Long Term Memory I Have
A Long Term memory I have
Holding tons of shocking stories
Inside my heart
A long term memory I have
The memories of poison and blood I have
Running inside me
A long term memory I have
The memories that holds
Some faces of blood eating
Monsters that lives near my heart
A long term memories
Of hate and hating
Myself
A black heart I have
Pumping poison into my body
Restlessly every time
All the happiness is sucked by
A blackhole of bad memories
All the love is vanished by
A tornado of hate and loneliness
All I have now is
Memories of

We are aware that many national farm organizations are putting forth various plans to provide both short- and long-term relief to our nation's agricultural producers. While we believe long-term solutions are essential, the current situation demands a more immediate response.

My Telescope
my hearts beating
noticably without warning
racing this tune
writing a poem
stuck in the underworld
forever starless night
light abandoned me
then I saw the stars in your eyes
you pulled me out
like a lifeguard
giving me back breath
awakening my soul
Now I see
A myriad of stars
I look up
I see you
Flashing and blinking
Your shooting
Across the night sky
In through
My telescope
My telescope
The universe
Has never looked so grand
In all my years now
Possibility floods in
Like molten lava
You branded me a new name
Now I see
A myriad of stars
I look up
I see you
Flashing and blinking
Your shooting
Across the night sky
In through
My telescope
My telescope

The real sin with Social Security is that it's a long-term rip-off and a short-term scam.
Widespread intellectual and moral docility may be convenient for leaders in the short term, but it is suicidal for nations in the long term.
