Now I am thinking about goats. Some people come to forum to be agreed with. Well, I call such people goats. It is common to believe sheep are people who are willing to be led around and goats are not willing. I don't think that is what the illustration of the separating of the sheep and the goats means. And I learned something today on my break from buttons. Most goats have horns and the horns of dairy goats are customarily removed. It is called polling. I think it is interesting.

I am not finding much to talk about. I am going to sort more buttons. Did you know there are hundreds of sorting categories for them? The basic categories are these: Metal, Glass, Shell, Bone, Plastic, Horn, China. Right now I can not think of any more. I just did! Wood.

Vegetable Ivory is another. Vegetable ivory buttons are made from the tagua nut. They are old. Most veg ivory buttons are black, brown or tan. The colored ones are rarer and so the colored ones have their own class according to me. The colors are usually red or green.

Which reminds me of another material which is ivory. There is also cloth. Porcupine quills (I think I don't have any of those). Tortoise shell too.

Yes! Which takes a little bit of thinking. To become takes work. Now, how shall that be accomplished on the Lord's Sabbath Day? It is possible.

I am going to suppose that some electronic games companies are being funded by the government for gathering data on artificial intelligence. I am going to tell you what potentiality is evident in this one game. (I am sure there exists even more complicated games.) Ever single application is on a timer. So there's like a thousand little clocks ticking off 24/7. It also as an application where I can direct more than one icon at a time to do it's task. It was a long time that I did not know it. I think I have tried only three at a time. Even though it might sound very simple, I think it brain like.

I am never going to be happy with popular opinion.

Yesterday I was absent from RF (pity me) because I went to an art competition with my neighbor who is an artist. The subject was naked people. There were two classes, photography and the other. I suppose it could be any other thing but photography. This year there were no sculptures. The greater number of pictures were photographs. The owner of the shop says some people consider it porn. Oh well. What I say to those people is....is Greek art also porn? Some of the pictures did make me feel uncomfortable.

There was one painting that depicted Hindu gods, a terrace scene and two beautiful mountains in the back. It was very well done imo, required a lot of skill, time and understanding. It got an honorable mention. I would have chose it for first of second place.

There were not many art works. I did not count them. There was no more than 50. My friend's work did not get a mention even though I could imagine it ending up in a museum in a hundred years or so.

There was one very nice photo that caught my eye right away. It was sexual as it was of a lady's buttocks. It was a very nice ***. The lady had on a prop which was wings. It won first place. BUT after I saw that 'angel' I saw another by the same artist. This one was not sexual even though the angel was naked. She was bent over in a way that showed no *** and no boobs. I liked it much better than the one that won (am I a prude?).

Anyway, my point is they always get it wrong and that is Popular Opinion. I don't like it.

I forgot something. It was to make my point. The winning picture in the "other" category was a line drawing. At first glance I thought it was interesting. My friend liked it. Another artist present said she liked it.

As I studied the simple drawing I said to myself "what's wrong with her legs? And what is that thing, that very long thing, that is where the foot should be?" I did not like it. The top of the nude woman was very well done but I thought that the rest of her body below her thighs was terrible. It is for the reason of her legs and feet that I would not even have given it a mention.

When I pointed out the problem I say with the legs and feet to the artist lady that had said she liked it, she told me about the technique of line drawing. So I said to myself Aha! I know what happened to the lady's legs and feet. Because of friendly communication I am no longer bothered much about it winning first place because I learned something and it is funny.
