About the LQ

I started this blog in June 2003 as a personal journal. The title comes from a line from The Simpsons, when Lisa Simpson, stoned on the water from an amusement park water ride, declares in sonorous tones, “I AM THE LIZARD QUEEN!” Like Lisa, I’m probably so booksmart that I can easily talk myself into doing foolish things. Like Lisa, I’m passionate about what I believe in. And, like Lisa, I’m an idealist at heart.

Thanks for posting the poem by Houseman. I ran across, “All thoughts to rive the heart are here…” and the following line in a footnote by Patrick Leigh Fermor in his “Between the Woods and the Water”, which I am reading, but he didn’t identify his source.

You have intersting things to say. I want to read further.

Hi, yur stupid! :-)

Nice to see a variation of English that, as part of my job as an English teacher, I help to cure so that my students who talk or write like that don’t so that, oh, people will like them. And give them jobs. And be happy.

You don’t sound happy. What’s wrong? Anything I can do to help? ::BEEEEEG HUGS:: Need a cookie? Or a puppy? Maybe a puppy with cookies! That’s it!

::MORE HUGS:: A puppy with cookies and an English speech textbook!

P.S. And if I were you, I wouldn’t have “yur stupid” as your comment name because, umm… that just makes you sound, well… stupid.

Just a suggestion. Peace and love, to you, dude. Peace and love…

Hi, Lizard Queen-

I really enjoyed your blog about the conquering of the American Indians and all. I am currently taking a Minority Relations class and came across your site while researching for a discussion. You have a very interesting family history.

And I loved your response to Yur Stupid…they made me smile and therefore, will help me have a better day. :)

I read your note about Shing Yi.
I am practicing Shing Yi in Israel for some time.
And you are right - Shing Yi can be related as a moving meditation method.
can be also considered as a step before sitting-down meditation.
It’s a step between martial arts (external) and stillness meditation.
(the body and soul/mind should be very strong for the sitting-down meditation).

Takes a lot of time to master Shing Yi - and what you sensed is just the little edge of a vast world of excitment….
I recommend you try it for couple of month - you will never quit.. :)

Best wished and good luck with the incoming birth.
Josh

It is truly amazing the lengths white people will take to justify or deny their evil deeds that history proves their deliberate atrocities against the Black Race. Their Racist superior attitude is coming to an end sooner than they think. On that you can bet.

Mr Turner: Broad racial generalizations — from either “White” or “Black” — never solved anything.

Never. Solved. Anything.

Please read my “On Being Conquered” blog entries. For the world is much more complicated than perhaps your world view perceives.

Pax, and good night, Mr. Turner.

So what is the big deal about the lizard queen? This is obviously taken from Jim Morrison’s “I am the lizard king”. The question is why this has been given an independent context.

Phil: It’s not the Doors that’s the context — it’s Lisa Simpson that’s the contex. Usually OCD, high-achiever, uptight, and taking herself entirely too seriously… but then, in moments of silliness, showing a goofy, free-spirited side of herself.

Even if it takes a little bratty brother to dare her to drink the “water”, :-)
