The RanchoBozo Philosophy
=

Captain Wayne-O sez: You wake up = one morning=20 with a vauge notion that you had a dream and maybe everybody else = had the=20 same dream . . . or perhaps an awakening . . .

Now = would be=20 a good time for everyone to accept that we are all related, = interconnected=20 and interdependent on eachother across all species through out our = home=20 planet. Now would be a good time for more and more of us to act=20 accordingly. Now is a good time for our actions to be lead by what = is good=20 for others, the earth as well as ourself. Now is a good time to = give love=20 freely. It's a great time to open our hearts and receive love. = It's=20 everywhere let yourself feel it.

We believe it's possible = for the=20 powerful policy makers in government and industry through out the = world to=20 work together with a vision of sustainablity and social justice. = We are=20 capable of technological solutions to help all humanity and all = the other=20 life forms on our planet. Imagine an evergrowing solar electric = energy=20 station orbiting in L5 between = the earth=20 and moon. An amazing station that can deliver many times over peak = global=20 load so everyone on planet earth can plug in their favorite = whatevers for=20 free. The governments of the world will also be free to = concentrate their=20 efforts on solving real world problems instead of creating=20 them.

You who have the wealth, power, resources and = ingenuity=20 don't you think it's shameful how much mass suffering in our world = is=20 tolerated. We think enough's enough and if enough of us share = plans,=20 prayers and visions they will be implemented. We will naturally = move=20 toward an economy of abundancy and sustainablity as the monetary = system is=20 abanoned and considered useless. The world will be a better place = to=20 explore what it is to be a human.

This is an experiment in html and web=20 development.(Grant K. Rauscher - April 4, 2004)

The = philosophy of=20 RanchoBozo.com departs from traditional veiws: immaturity is often = maligned and regarded as a negative trait. RanchoBozo.com = re-frames=20 immaturity as a key virtue and a vehicle for coping with = inevitable decay=20 in our material world. This pic and caption: "Our Streets a = Great=20 Street" from the very begining of RanchoBozo.com says it=20 well?

The emphasis of humor in the comedy and = tragedy of=20 life is a structural component of RanchoBozo.com. It is possible = to find=20 humor in almost everything especially ourselves. As my Nana use to = say=20 'laughter is the best medicine'. Briefly, RanchoBozo.com is a web = site=20 that is serious about not to taking it's self too seriously. Why not visit LaughterYogaWisdom.com= =20 and see for yourself? I really don't think you should take this = laughing=20 yoga thing laying down Amanda.

The aging hippy = dippiness of=20 the site reflects this philosophy. The hippies of the sixties and=20 seventies did their thing as youth and aged. This large segment of = boomers=20 went on to do lots of stuff including raising families, becoming=20 presidents, paying mortgages, and having careers. A few kept the = hippy=20 thing alive in isolated enclaves through out the world and = Northern=20 California. The resulting Xsters may have names like Cactus, = Moonluster,=20 Rainbow, Thundercloud, Brick, or Josh.

I personally took a = more=20 moderate path by keeping some of the hippy thing alive while = living a more=20 conventional life style. My hair was always at least longish, wire = rimmed=20 glasses and usually sported a trimmed beard (I'm sure you know the = type).=20 Oh yes we must remember appearances are just that, who was more = hip than=20 that drummer in Spirit with the shaved head? Being of this variety = we=20 usually earned a living in the helping proffessions some in the = helping=20 yourself proffessions.

Immaturitity does not necessarily = imply=20 childish behavior. However it certainly embraces child-like = behavior. We=20 can accept our mistakes, learn from them and still remain immature = . . .=20 we can do the responsible thing and still remain immature . . . we = can=20 gray and wrinkle and still remain immature . . . we can care = deeply for=20 others and our planet and still remain immature . . . Immaturity,=20 biologists tell us could be the the crucial one or two percent = difference=20 between us and the other great apes. The cluster of genetic = commands that=20 cause the other great apes to mature appear to be turned off in = our=20 species. I am in fact an immature chimp grown up, just ask my = wife. I will=20 search for more supporting documentation.

The implications = of=20 maturity (or the lack of) fuels one of the major differences in = the males=20 and females of our species. The uneveness of maturity . . . = females seem=20 more likely to mature while most men seem remarkably adept at = remaining=20 immature. This presents many challenges for a life long male = female=20 bonding. I've noticed this in my wife and even my daughters who = have all=20 become more mature than dear old dad. I'm caught in a Peter Pan = syndrome=20 and don't find it a problem. In the mean time boys fill your chest = with=20 pride and crow "I'll never grow up" yeah with great conviction. =

Oh speaking of Peter Pan another = element of the=20 RanchoBozo.com philosophy rests upon Peter Pan Theism. Peter Pan = Theism is=20 an an all inclusive religious non system first brought to my = awareness by=20 the late great David Crane back in the early seventies . . . the = wonder of=20 God is evident in all we see and do . . . even the workings of our = seemingly wicked world is absolute perfection . . . a return to = animistic=20 wonder . . . the choice that help things along is simply to show = you care=20 . . . oh yeah and love is all you need . . . and what a friend I = have in=20 Jesus . . . if every thing is everything then . . . we shall = discuss this=20 later . . . er well it's later . . . I've been curious about = metaphysical=20 stuff for years . . . when I was a young lad I remember making my = eyes go=20 off focus causing the large angels that flanked the alter to fly = around=20 the church during high mass at Our Lady of Sorrow in Santa = Barbara,=20 California . . . figuring I could get away with more serious = offenses by=20 tacking on an extra lie during Saturday confessions . . . any way = back in=20 the latter days of Rancho Bozo when Wendy and I lived in sin we = talked=20 about a big book with large type and weird illustrations that = seemed to be=20 printed on brown wrapping paper: BE HERE NOW by Ram Dass aka Dr. Richard = Alpert a=20 fellow soul and youtuber.

The = message was=20 bombarding us from many sides . . . oneness . . . we wanted Dr. = Dass to=20 perform our marrage cerimony but we couldn't afford the $1200 = donation he=20 required at that time . . . We opted for the Assistant Episcopal = Bishop of=20 California: Edward Crowther. Earlier that year . . . we were = taking a very=20 cool adult ed. course from Dr. Crowther on Jungian therapy . . . = at any=20 rate . . . this is a photo of Wendy and one of our gonzo gurus Ram = Das we=20 love Ram Das . . . and further more exclusivity is not really the = Rancho=20 Bozo way . . . so your true nature is in absolute idenity with the = universe: all it's history and possible futures . . . so what? = well . . .=20 That's what Alan Watts = was so very=20 good at explaining the tough metaphysical questions that crop up = in all=20 but the brain dead . . . . Oh was that the "ecription Book of the = Brain=20 Dead" just kidding it's "The=20 Book" by the Right Reverend Alan Watts is such a primer a = real=20 turn on . . . give it read . . . . . . . that's you the big you = that does=20 the youing . . . that you that involves the evolution of you = through all=20 of your stages from nothingness to the mighty universe as it = expesses it's=20 self as you at this moment. Just RELAX

Captain=20 Wayne-O

There is a chance that publishing this little = thing I=20 lifted off the net will alienate
upwards to fifty percent of my = readership . . . this of course represents a highly scientific = mapping=20
of brain activity sites with respect to cognitive and = subcognitive=20 female behaviors.
Our theory would suggest such gender = differentiation=20 is largely due to the uneveness
of maturation. Please refer to = the=20 diagram. I insist on including an equivilent diagram of a = male
brain if=20 there is a sufficiently immature female to create one.

In an effort to maintain fair and balanced = alienation=20 refer to the diagram of the male brain.
It should be noted that = nearly=20 all male activity is considered sub cognitive. This is of course = is
a=20 result of the male's uncanny resitance to mature in other words = the=20 uneveness of maturation.
Sub cognitive activities are not = necessarily=20 restricted to belching, leaving the lid up
and ear picking. A = very=20 special thank you to the unknown author(s) of these diagrams of = human=20 brains.
