All day long, Ms. Madeline went about her appointed tasks at the Hague, a gnawing uncertainty distracting her from getting any meaningful work done in the Special Collections department. Who was Lone Star? Would the new poster prove her esoteric equal? Was he a Grail Gestapo plant, sent to create turmoil in her soterika.biz queendom?

Unable to eat lunch or enjoy an afternoon tea, Maddie scurried home at the end of the working day and practically tore up the stairs to her bedroom, where her computer, dubbed Aristophanes after the ancient playwright of The Birds, rang its alarm uncontrollably.

"Heavens and Andromeda! More postings at soterika! Could it be...Lone Star? Does he miss me, perchance?"

Mebbe we should call this here thread the Jolly Green Giant, Miz Honey Bee...juz joshin'. Let's examine the case of them thar mysterious A-rab mystics... "The basic unit of the Sufi is the circle, the halka. ... Their patron saint is Khidr, the Green One." Okay. "About a century and a half later a mysterious organization came into being in England. The members were divided into two sections of thirteen each - one under King Edward III, the other under the Black Prince. Its colors were blue and gold, its robes woolen and hooded. Its patron saint was St. George, who is equated in Syria, where his cult originates, with the mysterious Khidr-figure of the Sufis. It was, in fact, called the Order of St. George, which would translate direct into Sufi phraseology as 'Tarika-i-Hadrat-i-Khidr' (the Order of St. Khidr). It became known as the Order of the Garter." This is kinda interestin' ... that thar cow poke Mr. Jung says the text of the Emerald Tablets originated in Alexandria, Egypt. Sounds kinda Sufi to me...was ol' Hermes T a Sufi?

Yep, I is back Miz Honey Bee, juz like y'all knew I would. Why juz this afternoon I was thinkin' 'bout y'all while I wuz readin' this here rare copy of a Sufi book my Daddy done gave me when I wuz knee-high to a buzzard. This part here sounded like somethin' you'd buzz right up to, "There is a very coherent reason for the Sufi group combining the elements of blue, gold, kingship, Khidr (St. George) and the protection of women into their formulation. It is all based upon a single word root and its manipulation, though a similar consistency cannot be found in the Order of the Garter. This might lead one to suppose that the Garter is a translation of the essential qualities of the Khidr group, all of which can be found assembled in the triliteral root KHDR." Phew, ain't that a mouthful, cow pokes! And thar's a secret code in that thar book, l'il lady...should I tell?

Here's the Code: KHaDiR = to be green (The Matrix); KHiDaR, KHiDiR = St. George, Elias, the Patron of the Sufis, Khidr; KHaDRa = chief of a tribe; EIKHaDRa = the sky (from which the sun breaks through, another allusion to the gold in the blue).

The above is from "The Sufis" by Idries Shah.

WOW! Did I mention that the moon is 36,800 miles from the earth? I'd wager that the Kabbalistic gematria of Khadir adds up to 3.68, which contains a prime number and is also the number closest to pi, isn't it?

I bet you is one mean poker player, l'il lady! I'd hate to be playin' five card stud 'gainst you - I wouldn't know if you wuz holdin' the Queen of Heaven Hearts or that thar Jack of Salamander Spades! Yeeha! Ain't that thar code a good one! Here's somethin' better fer my Honey Bee from another ol' Cowpokes' Bible I done found in my saddlebag:

"At the present day both Christains and Mohammedans in Palestine make vows to St. George in case of danger and distress, and address him as the evergreen green one. The green bed of Solomon would thus seem to be poetic allusion to the everlasting nuptials of the sun, and it follows that the beams of the house which are cedars and rafters of fir, have reference to the City of the Temple of the Sun. The lofty fir-tree was the symbol of elevation, and the House of Cedar, incorruptible and strong, may be compared to the Temple of Solomon, the symbolic Nova Solyma, the New Jerusalem, the City of the Sun, the spiritual city which lay foursquare and whose length was as large as its breadth."

Now, this here information would lead me to believe that by callin' a tablet Emerald, ol' Hermes T would be implyin' that the information contained upon that stone was a Law of great import - an immortal truth, an everlastin' certainty.

Amen.

Well, I think the Tablets are, obviously, a semiconductor chip or a computer screen or a Tetra Light Cone eminating from a spinning gem...what's the Arabic word for binary, Mr. Lone Star?
