Tani waa riniga birta ah ee ugu horeeya oo kaliya ee aan sameeyay... waa laba lakab.

Riniga birta ah ee ugu horeeya

This is coconut oil that was melted(left in the car), then when solid again, it formed these shapes. I thought it was cool, so I took a pic.

What do you see?

Tani waa saliid qumbaha oo la dhalaalay (lagu dhaafay gaariga), markaas markii ay mar kale adag tahay, waxay sameysay qaababkan. Waxaan u maleynayay inay xiiso leedahay, markaa sawir ayaan qaaday.

Haddii aad baran karto oo aad maamuli karto 1 hub, maxaad dooran lahayd?

Sometimes as I wonder about the progress of my personality I reminisce about days outside the 9 to 5. When a child could design. An ugly box on a shelf became a vessel for nerdom. A radioshack when it existed could supply the circuits to create. What age do we abandon by indifference our fire to express.

The Tinkering Tick

Mararka qaarkood marka aan ka fikiro horumarka shakhsiyadayda waxaan xasuustaa maalmihii ka baxsan 9 ilaa 5. Markii carruurtu ay naqshadayn karaan. Sanduuq xun oo shelf ku yaal ayaa noqday weel nerdom. Radioshack markii ay jirtay waxay bixin kartaa wareegyada si loo abuuro. Waa maxay da'da aan ka tagno dabkeena si aan u muujino.

As above, so below. As within, so without...

Sida kor, sida hoos. Sida gudaha, sida dibadda...

Here's where it gets weird. 

The Tasmanian Tiger, was an apex predator in Australia, and hunted to extinction by the late 1930s. 

I met my late wife through a personal ad that her mother actually answered... told you it gets weird! Her mother made a date with me, and told her to go.
But she read the ad before she came to see me... and changed my world for 16 years. 

As the sun came up that first morning, we were still on this high from meeting each other. Two professionals in the music biz, who had major label releases of our own. We already knew of each other, but didn’t dream this would happen. I mentioned something about my ad and she said "Tasmanian Tigers". 
I had mentioned them in my ad and she didn't know what they were.

So I showed her a flickering old movie from the late 1930s that showed the last surviving one in a zoo in Australia.
And my thought... that I was the last - how she felt as well... 

So I reprised my original ad... hoping to be that lucky again, as I believe in honoring your departed, to have the best life you can. After all, we've had practice! 

Along with my music, I'm also a romantic. The last of the true and afflicted ones. I know I am not of this world. Not here, at least. I am a Tasmanian Tiger. A thylacine, and I've searched the earth for another... and still am only as one. 

I wasn't always like this, though. My life changed as I saw my mate felled by the new predators that invaded our wood. It's been four winters now and I can still remember the day as I returned to our den and the songbirds that lived above us saw me... my slow gate, my fixed stare... as they stopped singing and were uneasy. 

To this day, they stop as I come back with quarry to share with no one. They are simple creatures, but they live on their intuition... and not just their own, but the thousands of their ancestors that came before, thousands think as one... and their songs are their knowledge which is not learned... but certainly real. 

They've asked me, but they already know... and I know this... it's their way of acknowledging my hurt inside. They see me bringing back my quarry to my den... and see my eyes grow damp. They don't know what that is, and neither do I. 

They are struck by my plaintive yowl. I don't know what it is, either... I don't recognize any of what I do now... it's not something I'm even aware of... but the yowl...hoping against hope that it is answered. Knowing it won't be. All of this land is covered with the simple creatures, SO simple, yet complete... and the whole earth is covered with them... so many as their souls could fill the ocean...but would be so shallow as to scarcely wet my foot pads... 

I don't understand the dampness in my eyes and the disquiet in my heart, when I think of the times past. I never yowled. I yipped, chittered... and made quiet puffs of air to signal my mate... and I still do so, in my dreams. 

The birds told my story to the cranes... and when the cranes came back as the days warmed, they told of a world that was no longer for the thylacine... not a den, nor trace. The watering holes showed not a footpad in the mud... no bones... and the rabbits and shrews were bold... as if they had nothing to fear! And numerous... so numerous as to be diseased and festering carcasses exposed all over... so much that the carrion eaters couldn't even finish them.  

So it would appear that I am alone. And my eyes grow damp as I feel this... and the birds above our den ask me if I am sick, as my eyes are ever damp... I tell them I don't know, as I don't. I truly don't know what is wrong with me. Or this world... That soon I will grow older, stooped as the elders I saw as a kit, and slow... and my teeth will dull and fall out... and then I will lay down my last time. But now my teeth are still sharp, I can take more quarry than ten of my peers... which is why I'm still here and disquiet. I know of nothing else!

But why am I here? My coat is still sleek, my mind and body nimble, as the apex of the hunters. The birds above me paired for life, which is also our way. We are connected in that way... and one day I saw his mate fall... and it distressed me. Much as I think they must feel, now... and saw him out on their branch hopping up and down. It was strange behaviour... and his song... so different. As he did that day and even after the light. It was his way. And he didn't sleep in their nest.  He didn't sleep at all, I believe. Until one day, she arrived. His mate to this day. And I know that is what he thinks I must do. But they are simple.

 I asked him one day if he ever missed his first mate. He looked at me quizically. I tried to ask again, as the one that came before, and he said only that he had always been with his current mate. He believes this. That is his way. I envy him. They cannot conceive of this. 

And they still quiet their song as I return. And they still nuzzle as I walk out of sight, seeing my solitude, feeling complete as they are. And I walk my perimeter, And beyond. Farther every day. Making my plaintive yowl, hoping that it will be answered. And sometimes I lie down and dream... and hope that dreams are not all I will ever have. Or that i awaken and find her there again, as if THIS were the dream, as I had many times before she truly did fall... these always confused me as dreams our life before do now. For what good are dreams in a world where no Thylacine live? And what am I to become that a simple bird pities me? If I didn’t have fondness for them I would gulp them down, not to see that look again. 

Well, my day is nigh, and I must lie down in my den,  again. I push myself beyond my ability every day, and sometimes chew the hemlock leaves, so I don't lie down, but fall... to sleep without pointless dreams... lately of the coming spring and running with my mate by the waters. Yipping, chittering, and nuzzling.

Tasmanian Tiger

Halkan ayaa waxyaabaha yaab leh ka bilaabmaya.

Tiger Tasmanian, wuxuu ahaa ugaarsade sare oo ku yaal Australia, waxaana la huntay ilaa dhamaadka 1930-meeyadii.

Waxaan la kulmay xaaskaygii dhintay iyada oo loo marayo xayaysiis shakhsi ah oo ay hooyadeed dhab ahaantii ka jawaabtay... waxaan kuu sheegayaa in waxyaabaha yaab leh ay dhacaan! Hooyadeed waxay igu ballansatay, waxayna u sheegtay inay timaado.
Laakiin waxay akhriday xayaysiiska ka hor intaanay i arkin... waxayna beddeshay adduunkayga 16 sano.

Markii qorraxdu soo baxday subaxdii ugu horreysay, weli waxaan ku jirnay farxad aan ka helnay kulankeenna. Laba xirfadlayaal oo ku jira ganacsiga muusiga, oo leh sii deynno waaweyn oo aan leenahay. Waxaan horey u ogayn midba midka kale, laakiin ma aanan riyoon in tan ay dhici doonto. Waxaan xusay wax ku saabsan xayaysiiskayga waxayna tiri "Tiger Tasmanian".
Waxaan ku xusay iyaga xayaysiiskayga, laakiin ma aysan garanayn waxa ay yihiin.

Markaa waxaan tusay filim duug ah oo iftiimaya 1930-meeyadii oo muujinaya kan ugu dambeeya ee nool xayawaanka zoo ku yaal Australia.
Fikirkeyga... in aan ahaa kii ugu dambeeyay - sida ay iyaduna u dareentay...

Markaa waxaan dib u soo celiyay xayaysiiskaygii asalka ahaa... anigoo rajeynaya in aan mar kale nasiibkaas helo, maadaama aan aaminsanahay in la xushmeeyo kuwa dhintay, si aad u hesho nolosha ugu fiican ee aad awooddo. Ugu dambeyntii, waxaan horey u tababaranay!

Iyadoo muusigeyga, waxaan sidoo kale ahay qof jaceyl. Kan ugu dambeeya ee runta ah iyo kuwa dhibaataysan. Waan ogahay inaanan ka mid ahayn adduunkan. Halkan ma ahan, ugu yaraan. Waxaan ahay Tiger Tasmanian. Thylacine, waxaanan raadinayay dhulka mid kale... weli waxaan ahay kaliya mid.

Marna ma aanan sidan, si kastaba ha ahaatee. Nolosheydu way is beddeshay markii aan arkay saaxiibkay oo la dilay xayawaannada cusub ee soo duulay kaynteena. Afar jiilaal ayaa hadda la joogaa waxaanan weli xasuustaa maalintii aan ku soo laabtay godkayaga iyo shimbiraha heesaha ee kor noolaaday oo i arkay... socodkayga gaabiska ah, indhahayga oo si go'an u eegaya... markii ay joojiyeen heesaha oo ay noqdeen kuwo aan raaxo lahayn.

Illaa maanta, waxay joojiyaan markii aan soo laabto anigoo leh ugaarsiga aan la wadaagin. Waxay yihiin makhluuqyo fudud, laakiin waxay ku noolyihiin dareenkooda... oo kaliya ma ahan kan ay leeyihiin, laakiin kumanaan awoowayaashood ah oo ka horreeyay, kumanaan waxay u fikiraan sidii hal... heesahooduna waa aqoontooda oo aan la baran... laakiin dhab ahaantii waa run.

Waxay i weydiiyeen, laakiin horey ayay u ogyihiin... aniguna waan ogahay tan... waa habkooda aqoonsiga xanuunka aan gudaha ku qabo. Waxay i arkaan anigoo soo laabtay ugaarsigeyga godkayga... waxayna arkaan indhahayga oo qoyan. Ma garanayaan waxa ay tahay, aniguna ma garanayo.

Waxay ku dhaceen heesahayga murugada leh. Aniguna ma garanayo waxa ay tahay... ma aqaano waxyaabaha aan hadda sameeyo... ma ahan wax aan xitaa ka warqabo... laakiin heesaha... rajeynaya in la jawaabo. Ogaansho in aanan la jawaabi doonin. Dhulkan oo dhan waxaa daboolan makhluuqyada fudud, aad u fudud, laakiin dhamaystiran... dhulka oo dhan waxaa daboolan iyaga... in badan oo naftooda ay buuxin karaan badda... laakiin waxay noqon doonaan kuwo aad u shaalay si ay u
