even as we speak i`m sitting at my " make the world go away place " .. well .. i will be in a few minutes .. i spend time here just listening to the water ripple over the rapids .. i clear my mind of all thigs that bother me .. once in a while a river floater will come by and i always ask " what do you do when you here dueling banjos ? sometimes they know what that pertains to .. most time they dont .. .. i brought several chairs here to sit in and they disappeared pretty quickly so i finally chained one to a tree ,, it has survived a flood or two .. on another hand i probably missed out on a unique car .. it was a 65 ford galixie with a 390 and a 4 speed .. running car but very rusty .. 5 grand seemed a bit high but it went away very quickly .. i actually have a good lead on a 5 speed for the pinto but just dont feel like doing it .. headed to a car show later ..

Not exactly... The myth was that when King James directed the Bible to be translated, that Shakespeare was allowed to review some of the translations, and that in Psalm 46 he may have "polished" the wording to include a tribute to himself in his 46th year - counting 46 words from the start of that Psalm one finds "shake", and counting 46 words from the end (not counting the "Selah's) is "spear". A renowned Biblical scholar debunked the claim in a letter about 10 years ago, stating that it was nothing but a "hoary myth" and pointing out that in writings from 1549, before Shakespeare was born, the words "shake" and "spear" appeared in the same places in the Psalm. Pure coincidence.
