I have nothing to say

[Mark Metcalfe]

There are no threads to which I want to respond at this time so
I have nothing to say. It got me to thinking that I should have a
"nothing to say" thread of my own where I can come and say nothing.
I might have something to say but saying nothing is sometimes better
and I can say nothing in here. So when I don't have anything to say
about anything or something that might be said but nothing is more
appropriate, I'll say nothing in here.

If anyone has nothing they would like to add to this note, then
feel free to say nothing here with me and we will pretend that
nothing was said because in fact nothing will come of it.

If I have said anything at all in this note it is to be considered nothing
at all.

Mark,

I feel the emptiness of the content of your message to be a perfect reflection of the deepest intention of this post.
Indeed, rarely have I seen such a message as clear as yours. It's clearity makes it a shining example of the ultimate communication. There simply can be no doubt as to its goal.
The stark nakedness of the value it displays is only measured by the sheer beauty of the shapes of the letters that are formed in my browser, reading your post.

It was a delightful moment where time stood still, a moment without the remotest value.

[Gary Swartzlander]

I will take this opportunity to add absolutely nothing to this post. Thanks for giving us this chance.

[Mark Metcalfe]

Your vacuous text really adds nothing and I truly appreciate how eloquently you
guys (and gals) can express the inane. It is an art form of fatuous quality; truly
lacking. Thank you!

[G R 'Scott' Cundiff]

All I can say is that I totally disagree with your statement of nothing and refute it with my own empty logic.

[Dana Grant]

You know, I was going to say the same thing.


*snickering*

[David van Beveren]

I almost had something said, but at the last minute I could withhold my self.
This was not a message at all.
If you think it was, it was your imagination.

Going back to work.... Oops!

Devoid of material, I am rendered speechless; innocuous and incommunicado.
The thing of it is that something or anything might be nothing more than more than nothing.

[Jim Severns]

And not only that, I'm not even going to post a response. Oh, I suppose I could start typing some sort of lengthly discourse as to the reasons for my feelings, but what would be the point? No, it is better that I just keep my thoughts to myself until such time as there is something worthwhile to post. Otherwise, I would just be posting meaningless verbage that would provoke controversy and even more disagreement. If I did post a response it would just be "no comment". But I'm not going to waste my time doing it.

absolutely ... nothing!?!


yes, what a shame that so much space ... bandwidth [whatever that is(!) ... I've heard of it] ... all to say ... simply nothing. And y'all just go on and on and on, saying ... nothing ... nothing at all! [a bit hard to join this conversation at this late date & make any sense ... but then isn't that what "nothing" is all about ... nonsensical drivel ... ?? ]

And, Mark, your dad's the most eloquent one around here ... he's shown us all how to really say ... well, almost ... nothing, with his superb loquaciousness [TIC]. To think how he got his point across with simply, "duh" ... well, it just blows me away!

gina, who actually does have something to say at times ... but not at the moment. [how do we end this when we're trying so hard to say absolutely nothing ... how do we then know that we are, in fact, done ... ???]

And I have been taught that if you cannot say something good about someone, say NOTHING.

When I DO say something to John he is often not really listening and when he says, "What did you say?" I answer:
NOTHING!

Saying nothing has its value at times.

There are some things better left unsaid.

Deep philosophical thinking here.......I am thinking deeply about this thread and what flashes across my mind?

NOTHING!

LOL!

However, notwithstanding the perspicasity of the ubiquitous vacuousness of this discourse mumble mumble mumble...

don't you think this post says waaay too much for a thread about "nothing?" Afterall, how can anyone use a 15-letter word while saying nothing?!?

'Have to be verrry careful, or you might just end up saying "something" [not permitted in this thread, mind you!] if you continue to use such big words, especially those like that 15-letter one there! :eek:

Boy, you'd think you were writing legal briefs, or something ... duh! 'Trying not to ROFLOL here, recalling some of the legalese I used to have to use, while creating such documents. ;)

On second thought, my attempt above to be clever might have been better if I had reversed the whole statement to say:

"I need to tell you nothing, but make sure you tell someone."

This thread has shown me that many of you know a lot about nothing.
In fact, some of you have demonstrated brilliantly that you know nothing

Some of you know something about nothing but aren't saying.

Doing a search of Job on Nothing, I found some things (though these are not all of them):

Job 15:31
Let him not deceive himself by trusting what is worthless, for he will get nothing in return.

Job 20:21
Nothing is left for him to devour; his prosperity will not endure.

Job 21:34
"So how can you console me with your nonsense? Nothing is left of your answers but falsehood!"

Job 24:25
"If this is not so, who can prove me false and reduce my words to nothing?"

Job 32:5
But when he saw that the three men had nothing more to say, his anger was aroused.

No, it is the eldest son of a befriended couple in age of my eldest children. What I like, what me enjoys, the father Christoph, a former classmate of our eldest son is handicupped by dyslexia (over here Legasthenie) - and founded two small "one man" - businesses - and makes plenty money. He is a bit loud, but is confessing all the times what Jesus Christ has done in his life - and everybody will love him because his extraordinairy kindness. He is busy, delivers fine jobs and does all the times a bit more as the contract says - no wonder, he got success.
Christopfs father is a lutheran pastor, has left our town after retirement and spends his time now for the Hermannsbuger Mission, and works for Afrika. That was for long years his hobby.
On this photo you can identify Max Leos mother Undine by "hand on buggy" and his father Christoph as the largest at left in dark sweater. Unfortunately they have moved, do no more live in our neighbourhood.

in context. It is not saying that nothing equates to falsehood. It is saying
that all that remains of the answers that Job's friend is giving is falsehood.

Mark

P.S. This note discussed the meaning of nothing in keeping with the theme of the thread.

P.P.S. This is note number 144. That is gross!

[Carsten Schermuly]

YesssSir, No Sir,
after Paul is nobody found under the sun without sin - so this word about falsehood means also me, "what is my motive - a selfish motive?". I know the Job story well, it meets the judging "friends" of Job with their better moral. At least the Lord has spoken in thunderwords about their nonsense.
Thank you for your kind help.

I hope, I gave no reason for others to say something, by saying a tiny bit more than nothing. Time goes by and makes that tiny bit quickly to nothing.

[Carsten Schermuly]

Oh yes, I see - this is number 146 - when will come number 147?

The red is Matthias, our sixth and the yellow is our seventh Zacharias as preschoolers on our ol' farm, our both trumpet blowers. Today they have to learn english, french and latin.
We as family in Berlin, 89, before the Wall felt. The Baby is Cornelius, our fifth, today by 1,96 m (6.43 ft

the largest in family and basket ball player.
The smiling is Elisabeth. It is characteristic for her - a lovely light, kind mind and open eyes. We tried to get a sister for her - but all the times boys.
But - this will say nothing - she got it, my goldpiece.

[Carsten Schermuly]

Our both youngest, our both trumpet blowers -

the one, Zacharias
is missed since six hours. It is now ten minutes to nine in evening and dark in Germany, we hope, he and a friend he was with in afternoon, have not been on ice and are broken in. We called around, but got no hint where they could be, at least we called the police - Ruth is lost in tears. Police must be here in a few moments.

[Gina Stevenson]

Have they shown up yet; it's afternoon here, so Saturday night there. We pray they have.

[Carsten Schermuly]

They have been seen, entering a swim hall to see a movie. Ruth and the grandfather of Zackis friend will go to pick them up.

The police came by two officers. One I do not know, the other I do know too good - he is filled up with misrespect and hate against me because I know a former affaire from him. This Lady had a sixteen aged son, doing some crime. Ruth and I helped her as good as we ever could. I do not know what the police officer thinks about - we had nothing done that could be wrong - but this police officer has already given me a few years ago a traffic fee to pay in height of 270 DM. It was unright.
Tonight he was going off just with a small note of our address in his book.
Crazy world.

[Gina Stevenson]

Very good! thank God.

They have been seen ....

[Carsten Schermuly]

Dearest Gina,

Yes,
as we know, to pray is always the very best - and as you see, it has helped indeed.

Thank you much!

I hope, Ruth will not hit him public in affect - it is forbidden by law to touch a child in Germany. At least she had to sit in jail, waiting for her little Zacki to bring her greetings from home.

[Carsten Schermuly]

Very good! thank God.



Oh, yes, we have been really in anciesties for one hour.

[Carsten Schermuly]

The solution

Both errored, they liked to enter that swim hall to join a youth group of a local sport club - our son Cornelius is member in basket ball team. The swimming even was in another week - their thinking mistake.

This sport club rented for every week on saturday afternoons during winters the swimm hall for trainings etc. Today the club liked to show several children movies in common with a local movie club (to save a historical cinema building - what crazy idea!).
One movie about swim sport, one about Madagaskar and its nature and one with a children adventure - similar like the story "The little Lord" by Charles Dickens. (I wonder - do they not know how much hours children will spend in front of TV? Are children the right lobby for a "save the historic cinema building" club?)
As boys are - they forgot the time and have seen all of the movies. They have been never in danger.

What our idea means, they could have been gone on ice - because the swimming event was not this week - as Ruth and I figured out and have thought, the swim hall was closed -
both have been last sunday afternoon to see their favorite ice lake to see what is going on - and returned frustrated - "It is prohibited to enter the lake. Ice is still too thin". The town will proof ice on lakes inside the town and will give an OK once it is good enaugh to carry pedestrians. As long the ice is too weak after their professional opinion, warning plates are erected around the lakes.

Well, I'm not sure what you meant, Carsten, as I didn't go to that website you noted in your post (seeing the ".de" ending, figured it might be in German ... nein spreche Deutsch!).

Anyway, if this picture you put here is what I think it is, it looks like someone with flowers in their hand, and then shaking hands as they give them to someone else.

[Edith K. Thurmond]

There are no threads to which I want to respond at this time so
I have nothing to say. It got me to thinking that I should have a
"nothing to say" thread of my own where I can come and say nothing.
I might have something to say but saying nothing is sometimes better
and I can say nothing in here. So when I don't have anything to say
about anything or something that might be said but nothing is more
appropriate, I'll say nothing in here.

If anyone has nothing they would like to add to this note, then
feel free to say nothing here with me and we will pretend that
nothing was said because in fact nothing will come of it.

If I have said anything at all in this note it is to be considered nothing
at all.

It is a cut from a parking garage controlling movie, showing the automat to open the gate. Someone was born with a too short arm, she could not put the ticket in the automat while sitting in her car to open the gate. While trying to lift off seat belt and to reach out again, her foot slipped from clutch pedal, the strong engine of the car lets her car jump before the engine died. The jump opened the gate by a radical, but well working method. Next time she must pass the gate, she does not need to put the ticket in automat.
She found a pretty simple solution to make life a bit easier.


Nothing to say on the spiritual line

Mary and Magdalena - who took the better part? To be quiet and to listen, to say nothing - is better. The word by the almighty living God.

As I understand Mark, he had a similar idea, opening this theme.

Carsten, you make yourself well-understood in English, but
sometimes your command of the language can be difficult
to interpret. I think the same may be true in the reverse.

Humor is difficult to translate across language boundaries.
And the more subtle the humor, the more difficult to translate
and to transmit.

This whole thread is an irony that plays on the word "nothing."
Sometimes the irony has an edge to it, and sometimes it is simply
playing with words.

If I say that this thread is "much ado about nothing" it has a
double meaning (a double entendre). The plain meaning is that
there is a lot of commotion for no reason. The second meaning
is that there is a lot of wordplay about the word "nothing."

I am certain that German has its delightful idioms that would
not be understood by non-native German speakers. Nevertheless,
we welcome you to this thread where "nothing" is more important

The same like music. Sometimes a walk on ice. Once The Beatles appeared, christians have been on barricades, "My son is never allowed to get such haircut!" Today allkind likes their, "Love, love, love" or, "Ticket to ride" as great classic music - and nobody is interested in a correct or not correct hairstyle, eberybody follows his own imaginations.
This whole thread is an irony that plays on the word "nothing."

If I say that this thread is "much ado about nothing" it has a

Plain - I know, I know - I know myself. Second, this is MY CHANCE to say something. But - it is place of a reader to read it as something or to read it as nothing. As an alternate we could watch 24 hours Wrestling, Car Racings, Golf Tours or Soap Operas - it were the same, themes chosen according to our mentality. But - am I wrong? In background is the spiritual question, "Will it help to say something - or would it be better to say nothing (and to listen)?
I am certain that German has its delightful idioms that would

MarkAbsolutely Yes - for what we need 380 TV channels? Only one were enaugh to get news. 379 have nothing to say - except the both christian channels (Evangeliumsrundfunk Wetzlar and bibel TV), they have someting to say, they have alot to say.

Germany is a master to say nothing by many words.
Juristic literature
To print our laws - and to deal to all places we have to have it on, we need more than all other nations in the world.
60 percents of the worlds juristic textes are published in Germany. All other countries must look to take part on the rest of 40 percents.
That does not mean, we have no crime.
That does not mean, we have better attorneys.
It is just a confirmation, "We know this business, to say nothing, best."

I guess - it is basing on fears.
Nobody likes to carry responsibilities. To make it simple, a new law will be erected.

It could be, I am erroring and turned the counters 60 and 40 - but then? It will say the same.

My wife and I planned to see a Carnival - dancing eve with friends on a large dancing floor. It was in the time we have been engaged and I liked to meet her former classmates and study colleagues.

We looked for costumes.
I walked on a simple path, bought a suit, a funny neck tie and made me a pretty coloured Clown - carton mask.
Done.
My wife sewed a costume.
Oh my goodness!
What an ugly thing!
I got hard doubts on her good taste! But she played her role best. With truely serious face she asked me for an opinion every times she worked on her costume - "teacher". Strong looking glasses, strange hairdress etc - not a funny figure, a grotesque.

She hooked me up.
On the day X she called me by phone, she was not in the right time to go in common with me. She told me, she will go after her jobs directly to the dancing hall, her costume she had with her in her car. I will know her costume, I should find her.

OK - I in my new suit and as Clown entered the dancing hall.
My honey was not to find.
As I did know her, she loved to dance.
Oh, "Roll Over Beethoven" was actual!
Heavens, what fun.
To have a good overview, I took place on a table on the balkony and ordered a beer.
I watched the dancers.
Lonesome.
Helpless.
An half hour was gone.
A second beer.
A third beer.

I thought about her intelligence and her sense to have fun.
I got the right idea.
She could have taken another costume to lead me right now in the desert. Yes, her "teacher" was sooo unattractive!

I entered the dancing floor and looked for her shoes.
I got her!
The most pretty costume you might think of!
An hungarian traditional folk costume with long ribbons in pretty colours - and what a nice hairstyle she got! I followed her for some moments by eyes. She watched me, but had not shown to know, I found her. She did not know my costume! She could not know, who I am and where I am.

I clapped hands.
She switched in my arms.
I played the naughty boy.
I took her tighten, close up.
She showed me, she did not like that.
I made a bad dancer, she liked to go, but I have held her hands, I did not let her out.
I touched her - on not allowed body areas - and I could see her becoming red under her mask. At least she became angry and did brake the dance. She went to a table where her friends have been and took place.

I retourned to my balkony place.
A few minutes later a delegation of two young gentlemen appeared - still with maskes, it was not allowed to lift up anonymity before the dancing mistress gave public command - on late evening.
I were found guilty to be naughty to a honourable young lady and they did await, I should excuse me.
Yes, later!
Go off, do not disturb me!
They did contradict.
I played again the ordinairy and already a bit drunken man.
At least the delegation disappered without a triumph.

Now - later I got the idea to go to her table - and in presence of the delegates I asked to a dance.
Oh, oh, oha!
I was really in danger of a black eye!

So I have said a thing, only she could know about her teacher costume - and she begun to laugh! The delegates wondered and she told her story and I told how I have found her.

We had an harmonic and funny evening.

Cellphones are unbiblical -
must be against the will of the Lord.

So I wonder why christians could take part on the worldly sickness to say so much about nothing by the shortest way ever found out.

For example,
looking out of the window of an airplane, in touch to someone, waiting in the passenger hall,
"Yes, now they took out the wheels."

"See the air brakes?"

"Touch down! What a luck, not too hard!"

"We reached the end of run way and we are turned now."

and so on


VERY IMPORTANT THINGS!
Yes, they need to be said to the world
by using the latest top electronic tec.


Children of the Lord are challenged not to do so.
So I still hake shead about phellcones in services.


Once it were the will of the Lord to use cellphones,
our mouth were not centered.

*** such worthful things with others under

*** the yearning to be a child again,

*** knowing it is impossible -

*** like the world is yearning for

*** the first and true identity as

*** happy men in the lost presence of the Lord.





Be patient, please, little Gentleman!

Time goes by

too fasten!

who's doctor Phil, please?

Carsten, Dr. Phil is a psychologist, who became famous when he first appeared in the Oprah Winfrey show. He now has a daily show of his own in which he tries to counsel people in numerous life situations, mainly in crisisses. He's on Dutch tv as well, and I have to say he generally makes good points. I understand he's a Christian.

[Carsten Schermuly]

What motive to say nothing?
Alot of nothing.

I like to be in center of attention.
And / Or
I like to help up the canadian speed - by my post speed we could shorten the 30 years to 3 years - or so. Three years NazNet is inside reality - what about NazNet in thirty years? Häh?

In case, I had something to say, I liked to tell what I watched again and again in my life. This I watched on myself as well on others.



---
Something



The words
"I like to be a child of the Lord."
or
"I am a child of the Lord."
a man could forget,
he has said in the past.
Maybe he will forget it by will?





Did he drive in sin?
He is too ashamed to speak it out - otherwise to confess were an easy thing.
He is ashamed to think back - so a hardness is his sin in his own eyes!





But,
our heavenly father does not forget.
He still is watching his beloved child.
Shaking head about the wrong way -
to forget (no matter, without will or by will).

Our heavenly father takes it serious.
He has shed his holy blood for his beloved children on Golgotha.
He paid the highest price for us.
We should not forget.

He takes it serious.
I could forget, I could think, it is not sooo important, other things could be more important for me.
Not so the Lord.

He took my words serious - for eternity.
Once I do not try to forget or once I do not forget really
to live only and only by his grace, like a child of the Lord does -
what reason ever to forget does not matter, my personally flesh lusts or my worldly mind to get more like others - a house, a car, a boat, a journey around the globe, political or fine arts honours - or the honour to see myself as a great preacher, blessed by a huge wisdom etc etc etc
he will remind me!

Take care!
He will remind me!
He takes off what I have chosen as a reason to forget!
It hurts.
No matter what devices he will use - for sure, it hurts!

It hurts day and night.
I see me as hopeless lost.

It hurts day and night because the Lords love is following me during daylight and in darkness of nights.
In reality or as pictures of light and darkness - on mind health, depressions, anciesties etc, not known before sin.
See king Saul.


I can not stand in sin.
I must break down.
The giant and almighty holiness (identic with light and truth) of the man of misrespect does not allow

the big lie, I live in,

I am a child of the Lord and do not like to leave my sin, I do not like to confess my sin to return to my spiritual family and to see again a sense in my life, I do not like to give up "I forget it".



I have a problem.
My heavenly father put me in trash like the lost son.
Depressions, anciesties - no sense in life.
Poorness.
Spiritual and material poorness.


My heavenly father is looking out for me like the loving father in the story about the lost son.


It is easy to return.
As longer I resist, as longer my wounds do hurt me, the love of the Lord has lain the Lords finger in.
I just have to give up sin and to confess.

Nothing more is needed.


Just return to the contract, to the given word
"I like to be a child of the Lord."
or
"I am a child of the Lord."
I left.




---


Since I have nothing to say,
I am quiet - or I say nothing.


My job is to watch what is going on
and to pray - what others will mean.
My job is to confess - what will mean me.


I like the fact, I have nothing to say.
So I have not to carry the burden of a spiritual leader - to say,
"Hey, boy, come on! Please, did you forget something?"


Since I have nothing to say,
I am quiet - or I say nothing.

[Carsten Schermuly]

Carsten, Dr. Phil is a psychologist, ... OH, NO!
What I have done!
I told lies! Now I am lost!


He's on Dutch tv as well, ...That could mean, you will listen at home to a story, telling you, I drunk beer!
I will loose my face FOR EVER!

All my poor honour, I could scratch together and clean up from dust of the dirty street where was stepped on in muddy weather by others - all this poor honours I should loose now?

In Dutch - or what tongue ever - does not matter.
I am dedected as liar!

HELP!

H E L P , . P L E A S E !


What will say my wife, hearing what I told about her?
Touched on not allowed body areas by a drunken strange man -
on a questionable fun -
a Carnival dancing floor!


I have to await no good days.
Oh, oh!

[Carsten Schermuly]

There are people in the world - like me.
I can only shake my head over them.

They are trying to make curves around the central problem by talking about thousand periphery problems they must live with as the consequence of the ignored central problem.

Speak clearly out only one times the central problem -

and it is gone - and

with the central problem
thousand periphery problems are gone.

It is a christian principe, right?




Do you think now, I liked to teach you?
No, please,
I have nothing to say.

:bannana two........hun........dred :bannana




by the way

Right now I can listen to the singing of the wandring scandinavian geese.
They return from their southern places in France, Spain and Africa.

That means,
:bannana winter is over! :bannana

[Gina Stevenson]

This reminded me of someone saying Sunday evening (small group) that they'd seen a V-formation of geese flying north, figuring the same thing.

Not quite so optimistic re the "winter is over" thing ... but at least it's not here for another few months; perhaps just another one or so ... tho' spring can give us some nasty weather, too. ;)

:bannana
The geese need open waters, they would not fly north without knowing, ice is gone. Ice is gone - means temperatures above of 4 degrees Celsius, the temperature, water begins to freeze.
:bannana
In nights we sometimes will have temperatures below Zero - unto middle of May, but that can not be cold enaugh to let freeze water again, in daylight temperatures will go upwards for maybe unto 20 degrees.
:bannana
Nasty weather,
yes, it is possible, no question - but it does not mean such low temperatures like in winter, Easter sunday with 10 to 12 degrees Celsius and rain for sure is not sooo good.

A photo from March 13 2004
a pretty large group, normally they travel in groups by 50 to 100 animals.

resized original
not good to see, resizing will swallow too much colour informations.

the copy
after giving two times 100 percents more contrast they are better to see.

[Carsten Schermuly]

March 8th 2004 in late daylight
the tiny white spot in the right half is the Venus, known as morningstar, or like in this case eveningstar, because the strongest starlight, appearing as first and disappearing as last star. I guess, you will use the same names for the Venus in the States?

This photo is the resized original without giving more contrast. to play abound with contrast is difficult an not satisfying because the weak daylight.
This is a regular sized group by about 100 geese.

I only have enough time to add more of the nothing that pervades this thread.

For the nothing I love the most, look up the word insouciance. :basic01

[Mark Metcalfe]

Oh, all right.

Insouciance means the cheerful feeling you have when nothing is troubling you.

I think, it is a question of common definitions,

like

tape = duck tape.

To quote me, I would like to say, should create this:














As a description could be used ...
... the well known term "nothing", right?




... the well known term "nothing", or better left?

This also will say nothing,

except, we come nearer to a half hundred.

Sooo sorry! I hope, you will be free very soon.

[Carsten Schermuly]

This I had not awaited!
I was out for about one week - and nothing has happened in here!

I only can shake head!

How in the world we should reach that - by doing nothing`? - Häh?



... I'd like to be either # 1,999 or 2,000 on this post ... nothing else ... let's see if I make it! :rolleyes:



It needs every day ten new nothingsthings - to be able to reach that goal in one lifetime,

dear Ladies and Gentlemen :fav18
