This was much easier and was approved of by everyone!
By everyone in their microculture, that felt like a macroculture to them.
This would be a good time to discuss culture, a very big subject.
In our natural state, we lived in tribes of no more than 100 people, where we knew everyone in the tribe.
We invented storytelling - and competed to see who could tell the best stories. The best storytellers had a career!
Until writing was invented on clay tablets. There were so many of these, the British used them for ballast on their railroads!
When Paper was invented, in its many forms, Clay became obsolete, because it was so heavy! Paper was a better medium for writing and remained so for thousands of years until the Fall of the Roman Empire.
"Why the House-Husband?" You may ask. To answer that, I would have to describe our culture and the advantages of that.
Including the advantages of woman leaders.

They have to Have Children
And they have to treat them badly.
Because this is what everyone else is doing.
I must say more about this because we can be good and bad in so many ways.
Costa Rica, where I now live, loves its children. but it cannot help them be organized. This is a life skill they do not have and are not likely to acquire.
They are averse to being organized and do not want to be that way.
They are poor, but cannot understand why.

The Eternal Struggle between Good and Evil
The reason for this is simple: we are both good and evil ourselves.
But we tend to overlook the evil. And this tendency makes it much worse.
I will be explicit: we are causing global warming, but do not think it is much of a problem!
Growth is good, even if it destroys everything.
Growth can be accomplished in many ways: by having a better house or car, for example.
By not thinking about what is going on.

Banco Costa Rica is Hard to Work With
I spent most of this morning working at it.
Their nearest office is in Paraiso, a short bus ride away. When I got off the bus I was feeling woozy, as I navigated the crowded sidewalks.
When I got inside, all the clerks were busy. I told them I wanted to enroll in their banking service, and this they seemed to understand, as they passed this message upward. Alejandro Quesada Martinez sent an email to our house in Orosi, giving me the information I needed to enroll. Another clerk gave another sheet of paper, with more information on it. The amount of paper consumed here is amazing!
As soon as Ray gets back, I will put him to work on my BCR forms. He doesn't seem to mind this.

Email Address, but no Email
I just noticed this with my friend Yami.
I walked over to her place to renew our friendship.
She had bad news for me: her father had died at age 90.
I noticed a laptop at her place, and asked her about it. "It was broke," she said. No wonder she was not answering my emails to her.
People should notify theit mailing lists when they are no longer valid, but few do.

This is an important part of Computer Communications.
A message always includes the address of the sender and the receiver. That may be one person or many persons.
In the case of the Internet, different parts of the message may traverse different paths and are reassembled at the destination.
This sounds complicated, but it happens millions of times every second. And the global economy depends on it.

Too Many Realities for Me to Handle
I looked up Reality on Merriam-Webster. It says:
Something that is neither derivative nor dependent but exists necessarily. Neat definition!
I suppose this includes the poop I made this morning.
But does it include the Android Phone I recently purchased? I am now struggling to import my Google Contacts from my Windows Laptop to it.
Samsung has a neat app that will do this for me, if I can figure out how to use it. Two Realities are involved here, and moving between them leaves me disoriented. I need something that helps me know where I am!
We need to recognize that these multiple realities exist, and to recognize when we are moving between them. This happens when changing religions, or using a recreational drug.
