left hands interlaced at the fingers formed mandala circles
fiction
Edward w Pritchard
Left hands joined and interlaced at the fingers formed mandala circles.
Government funds were used to compensate individuals for the loss of use and pain caused by the surgical removal of their left hand. Once the number of 400 left hands was reached for a specific geographic area Scientists began the arduous process of arranging the brightly colored severed hands into the pre-directed mandala circles.
Where the pre-direction came from to assemble the severed hands in a circle was unknown but conventional wisdom believed it was secret instructions from Space far beyond Earth. That was the scientific view, there was also a religious view and numerous conflicting opinions as well.
Two dozen Mandala circles made of individual severed brightly colored left hands contained secret messages or instructions. To date the messages had not been deciphered. Scientists were hopeful that soon they would be able to solve the riddle of the messages in the severed left hands, interlocked at the fingers into colorful mandala circles.
Why the number of 400 for the number of hands for each mandala? How did some people develop brightly colored left hands? For now that is classified information.
Pictures of the mandalas will be available soon. The colors of the hands is unforgettable.

Investors business daily stop trashing our President. We get it, you don't like his budget, you don't like his views on the role of government, you don't like his executive ability.

I like the business coverage of Investors Daily and the stock scoring is unique. Lay off the relentless criticism of our President. It strains your credibility Investors Daily editorial staff.

a drone is a drone is a drone
a drone is a drone is a drone
fiction
Edward w Pritchard
I came down to Venezuela to investigate allegations that the United States army was using unmanned drones to dispatch civilian individuals.
In a village two hundred miles South of Calabazo an incident had occurred that United nations war crimes monitors felt could be unlawful interference by intelligent machines in the death of a boy of about nine years old.
I entered the house where the boy's bloated body lay with a sense of foreboding and unease.
Maybe a quarter of a million bees and wasps slept quietly on all the walls of the interior of the home. My steps did not seem to disturb the resting insects. The insects bunched in colorful patterns and there was a surrealistic texture to the nesting that suggested intelligent design. More than anything the colorful circular designs created by the resting bees and wasps resembled the Mandala's of India that I had drawn as teenager to please one of my girlfriends.
What kind of damage could swarms of these colorful bees, wasps and hornets inflict? I dared not roll the dead bloated boy over to inspect the face to find out.
Leaving the small house I felt more than heard the military weather drone high above monitoring my steps as I rushed through the deserted village to return to our vehicle. In my head I began to figure my report on the incident of whether drones could now influence insects to attack humans.
A drone is a drone is a drone I thought.

Her face floated on a puddle of indifference;
stern porcelain exhibited as a mask,
blushing innocent at the edges,
wry at the eyes,
red sashed corseted encounters prefigured at the lips.
Will as manifest destiny.
Cracked face sinks in oblivion,
puddle become etched mandala of dimensionless melancholy.
Mandala whirl and pulsate; encounter-withdrawal, encounter-withdrawal, om, om;
Om, Om.

War threatens in The Ukraine; the United States considers it's options
War threatens in The Ukraine; the United States considers it's options
fiction
Edward w Pritchard
Last week the United States cut it's military budget substantially. The next day Israel lobbed a few missiles at Hezbollah. Now Russian troops are entering The Ukraine.
Me I always suspect the military industrial complex in America is somehow involved when world peace is interrupted.
War, war, war. How can stocks and bonds advance on the open on Wall Street tomorrow morning if sabers are being rattled in the Crimea? I know that the Charge of the Light brigade happened in the Ukraine once, that Tolstoy fought there and now I see Russia might invade the Ukraine. Honestly I missed Ukrainian independence from Russia I guess, I thought Ukraine was a Russian State all along.
I sympathize with the Ukrainians and hope they voted recently to join NATO for their protection. Meanwhile what should the United States do to help The Ukraine?
My usual first solution is diplomacy.
Here is what I wrote before in a similar situation.
America let's reconsider// our options in [Syria]// strike // change to "our options in The Ukraine"
fiction
edward w pritchard
There is a definite war party in America constantly urging us into foreign wars. This author is not privy to all the facts concerning intervention in The Ukraine but based on our experience in Iraq and Afghanistan your author suggests a period of cooling off while every diplomatic avenue is considered before the United States gets involved in an expensive foreign escapade. Since the government is trying many diplomatic attempts to resolve or delay entry into the internal problems of The Ukraine; here's is one more suggested previously by the author to keep the United States troops out of The Ukraine. Any effort that delays or eliminates the US being drug into war is to be considered.
War is absurd; Gidget goes to The Ukraine on a peace mission
fiction
edward w pritchard
Desperate to try anything to stop the violence in The Ukraine the United States sent the fictional character Gidget, movie and television star of the 1950's, and 1960's to The Ukraine on a peace mission. Still perky and upbeat at age 72 plus, what better emissary of the United States than Gidget to send to the war pending nation of The Ukraine to stop the insanity of war.
Both Ukrainians and Russian forces alike admitted confusion by the choice of ambassador from the powerful United States. " What's an untrained, inexperienced, broken hearted college drop-out going to do to help us settle our differences" said one of the Ukrainians who choose to remain nameless, but who was obviously familiar with the Gidget character created by Frederick Kohner American screen writer.
Meanwhile Gidget has been staying in and touring the City of Yalta as a tourist, enjoying varenyky, pierogi and Kiev cake. By unspoken mutual agreement both sides in the Ukrainian situation have temporarily suspended hostilities in The Ukraine until Miss Lawrence [maiden name] returns to Hollywood.
"Yalta is a beautiful City" said Gidget, "reminds me a little of Rome". Asked about pending War in The Ukraine Gidget Lawrence wrinkled her nose and frowned " War is simply absurd".
Ask for comment, on Gidget's peace keeping mission to The Ukraine from his home in America, Gidget's one time love interest actor and singer James Darren [ now married] said "Gidget's quite a character, if anyone can stop violence from occurring in The Ukraine I am sure Gidget can do it. " " Gidget once worked at the United Nations you know in the peace keeping department in the 1969 telemovie " Gidget Grows Up" concluded Mr. Darren.
