Well I knew it would happen, that I would not get the required 4-5 result thanks to the Saints. The best I could expect now is 3-5 but could be as low as 2-5, but either way I will not get the required 50% correct for the difficult Round 1 that I would need in order to keep alive my chances of finishing in the top 6 hence prize money. And so the curse of Mother's death is destined to continue, that after winning prize money each year up to Mother's death, I have not won a prize since her death. So while 2014 is likely to be a good year in other areas, it certainly will not be a good year in regards to football. It will be a Maggie down year, they may not make it into the Top 8, and I will not make it into the top 6 in the office tipping. Results will be purely academic, and it will only be a matter of whether I manage to move from the bottom half into the top half, for in spite of the curse, I have always finished in the top half. It will be bottom half after this Round 1, only a matter of how far into the bottom half I find myself.
This brings me to the much despised Weevils..... grrrrrr..... I so hate them..... Everyone here in the biased west thinks they will finish in the Top 8. They're in desperate need of reality checks!! I must however most extremely grudgingly admit that the Weevils are likely to beat the Bulldogs, but it will be a very close match, less than a goal in it. If by some freak out that they thrash the Bulldogs or win by more than 5 goals, we will never hear the end of it here, all crowing that the Weevils will finish in the Top 8 and even win a Premiership!! No way in hell!!!! No way ever!!!!!
At least I am realistic about the Maggies..... I do acknowledge that they're likely not to make it into the Top 8..... not like those extremely delusional Weevils fans!!!

Round 1 - Hindsight is way over rated!!!!!
OK OK OK.... I know I should have picked the Bombers.... I humbly acknowledge the errors of my ways.... but what can ya say it is only 1st round, and one can never pick 1st round matches anyway..... As it is said, Hindsight is a good teacher but it just doesn't come with a Tardis!!! If I DID have a Tardis then I'd win every tipping comp.... but since I don't.... well not a working copy anyway..... hence my currently dismal showing.....
My Tardis.... unfortunately not a working model !!!!!
Now i used up my one allowed point..... need to pick correctly the next three..... there's more chance of the Pope approving gay marriages in the church than this happening..... uhh well...... so what does the future hold.... well today anyway..... where's my crystal ball..... uhhhh i have no intuition crystals.....
The Hawks at home to the Lions..... who can tell?.... everyone picking Hawthorn.... and they seem a more likely prospect..... go with the flow here......
The Saints and the Demons..... ha how ironic hehe..... One of those matches you can't go on last year's form.... Melbourne were crap last year but probably will do better this year..... no team stays crap for ever.... except the Weevils!!!! hahaha!!!!!..... Gonna turn to the dark side and go with the Demons...... 666 the number of the beast !!!
The Weevils..... I shall deal with them tomorrow...... have to get my piranhas prepared first.....

Round 1 - One down Four to go!!!
Well very encouraging..... my first tip came up correct, the Puddy Cats did indeed prevail over the Crows. It was indeed in the end a good win for Geelong.
So now need 3-1, slightly more probably but still very unlikely, so definitely not getting carried away here, given that last week my first tip came up correct only to have the next three down the drain.
Tomorrow's match is harder to pick. The Skippies and the Bombers. Will the Bombers bounce back after a very traumatic season last year? Or will they bomb out while the Skippies skip all over them?
Now if I pick the Skippies and the Bombers win, I know what will be said, I should have picked the Bombers!! But if I pick the Bombers, the Skippies are sure to win!! So either way I am not gonna win. So let's go with the majority albeit a somewhat slim majority. The Skippies it will be for me.
Saturday's match to be mused on...... Saturday :)

Oh the Equinox - non-football update
Most of the news revolves mainly around Caroline as things are progressing rather quickly here....
Tomorrow is the Autumn Equinox, where the day and the night is of equal length. Known in Paganism as "Mabon". In the Northern Hemisphere it is the Spring Equinox, known as Ostara, rather similar to Easter, eggs and bunnies are involved, being symbols of fertility. Actually the word "Easter" is derived from the Babylonian fertility Goddess "Ishtar" which is pronounced as "Easter", and traditions also involves eggs and bunnies - all a common thread, though Ostara is more from Celtic and some Northern European traditions, while Ishtar is Babylonian.
However here in the Southern Hemisphere it is Mabon, from whence the nights becomes longer than the days, winter is getting near. There are energies involved with these times, which is why Pagans celebrate these days. They utilize the energies of these times. Here in Perth the peak of the Equinox, when the Sun is directly above the equator, is 12:57AM Friday morning - that is tonight at the time of the writing of this blog.
Anyway.... things are most definitely moving ahead with Caroline and I..... In regards to the Mauritian, I think my decision is more than vindicated. Just before Caroline came into my life, I was chatting with Tina, and she mentioned about her multi-lingual skills, being about to speak no less than 5 languages. So I suggested that she could perhaps teach me one of the languages. Next thing, she buzzed me back a msg with just a charge rate per hour tutoring time. Now when MONEY is involved it always raises red flags!!! Money is indeed the root of all evil. OK I thought, fair enough, this is obviously what she does for a bit of extra cash. However if I was so "special" to her then why treat me as just one of her customers? That really spoiled the mood to say the least, but at the time I chose to just ignore it. However, since Caroline came along and I changed my FaceBook relationship status from "widowed" to "in a relationship", it didn't take long for Tina to move on, indeed chatting up on one of my FaceBook friends. It is fine by me.
Caroline however, she hardly even mentions the word "money". But evidently she or at least her family are doing very well for themselves, they actually own several properties. And well in a place like India where a fair proportion of the population are homeless or living in run down slums, this would make her family seems more akin to the Rhineharts!! So money is definitely NOT an issue here! If Caroline wanted to come to Australia, she doesn't need a man to pay her way. Indeed some of her relatives ARE in Australia, albeit in the Melbourne region. But as I mentioned before, she also has church friends here in Perth. Anyway Caroline mentioned that WHEN I come to India, I would be staying at her Mother's guest house, apparently a separate abode on the estate where she lives. And her mother approves of me! That's a major plus!! Indians are very traditional, their families tends to be close, and they respect each other viewpoints. It's not like us Westerners who tends to do as we please, meet and marry whomsoever we please regardless of whether parents or family members approves. So at least I won her mother's approval.
Enter her rather protective brother. He added himself to my chat app, and began to chat with me, and it was clear that he was scrutinizing me to see if I am good enough for Caroline. It is most understandable given that her husband is downright abusive to the point of causing her injuries, he wants to make sure I am not like that. There is no reason why he shouldn't approve of me, except for possibly one issue. Her family are very devoutly Christian, moreso than even Sally! While I do to some extent resonate generally with the Light intent of some Christians, even if they often fail to live up to expectations, I am certainly not a devout Christian. Although it seems I be going back to church on at least a semi-regular basis. But I am a star seed first, it is what my soul is. And I am a Light Worker, that is what we decide to do. Indeed many Christians are Light Worker, but you just don't have to be in a religion to be a Light Worker. We simply do to add Light to this planet through our deeds. And I am an Earth Angel, it is my soul calling, related to being a Light Worker. These are my 5D tags. My 3D tag is indeed be Christian, for I DO embrace the one that is Jesus, whom we call Sananda in star seed terms - highly Ascended Master, indeed Divinity. So yes for all intensive purposes I AM a Christian. And I DO believe the Bible in it's original pre-Nicene format. I just don't embrace the 3rd dimension doctrines of the church. Many aspects however are akin to the 5th dimension. The Christian "rapture" is akin to the Ascension into the 5th dimension. The Trinity relates to the Egyptian legend of the 3-star system of Sirius, three stars that appears as just one star in the sky, and a part of my soul journey includes the Sirian star system. The "born again" experience is akin to the star seed activation ritual, which I have performed. Prayer is what we call energy exchanges, the 3D to 5D or higher connection. Indeed we do have much in common. Evidently it is a part of my calling to raise vibration within a Christian setting, specifically, Charismatic Renewal where spiritual phenomenon do occur which tends to suggest that vibrations are already higher. However star seed is NOT a religion, it is simply who we are. While one can BECOME a Christian, you cannot simply "become" a star seed - you're either a star seed or you're not. We are at one time simply awakened to this fact, we discover that we are star seeds. But it is something intrinsic in our souls from the very beginning.
And Caroline seems to accept my other beliefs, or at least tolerate them. But the same cannot be necessarily said of her brother. However I am who I am...... and I will not change for anyone, though there is scope for compromise with Caroline. Afterall anyone who waits 15 years for me deserves my respect at the very least!!! This makes her better than our Jewish patriarch Jacob who waited only 14 years to marry the love of his life!!
Anyway I guess we shall see how all this will pan out.........
Caroline in one of her traditional dress..... there are different names for each particular dress, I forget the names of them, but they do look good on her ;)
Now the vid.... a random one here.... well relatively random..... for I do indeed believe in angels......

Round 1 continues......
Hmmmm...... the match is probably already started but I just gotten home and have not seen any progress results...... so this is my musings as if before the match.
The Puddy Cats against the Crows, the match being in the Puddy Cat's lair..... One would think that the Puddy Cats should prevail but after the catastrophes of last week it is a good think I don't put any money on these matches!!!!!
But given that I need at least a 4-5 result to keep me in the tipping comp with some hope of turning around the recent past trends, something which is just not going to happen, this match is one of at least three that I need a correct tip on.
So will have to go with the Puddy Cats based on home ground advantage.......

Round 1 - Things are looking grim.... very grim....
Hmmmm..... things are looking grim..... things are looking very grim.... here cometh the Grimmmm..... Greyyyyyy....... Go-o-o-o-o-o-d.......
Just a line from my fav vid game..... even if I hadn't played it for a while due to being with my Indian princess virtually 24/7.... ok not quite that much but a lot..... not that I mind..... I rather enjoy the attention.... umm.... anyway......
OK I know it is notoriously difficult to pick 1st round matches but this is utterly diabolical. Not only the Maggies lost by a large margin but I am left with a catastrophic 1-4 result. And as if to rub salt into these open woulds, my only success is the Maggies loss - I knew the Maggies would lose so I submitted my tip accordingly! That was my only point for this very dark weekend.
Given it is so difficult to pick 1st rounds, I was hoping for about 50% success rate for me to remain on track for prize money. Now is THAT too much to ask for?? A 50% success rate given that each individual tip is 50/50? It's like tossing a coin, you expect approx 50% heads and 50% tails. So was it too much to ask for 50% success in the 1st round??? Well to the universe it seems so.
Now for me to get the necessary 50% success rate, well actually 56% due to it being 9 matches per round, I will need a minimum of a 4-5 score during next weekend's round.
There are certain things on this planet that is just not going to happen. Such as, the Russians giving up their desires for Crimea, the Jews and Palestinians peacefully coexisting, the Pope approving of Gay marriages in the Church, and me getting the required 4-5 score on 1st round picks!!! So it seems that despite improvements in other areas of my life, my dismal tipping record since Mother's death seems destined to continue. That as we know, I have always won prize money every year up until Mother's death, but no prize money whatsoever since Mother's death. 2014 seems destined to be a continuation of this dismal record.
Of course the improvements in my life corresponds to the crystals that I have in my possession. Most of my crystals deals with health issues, emotions, calmness, and protection..... as well as that infernal Rose Quartz crystal!! My health improving, feeling slightly more calm, have not as many bad dreams, and that Rose Quartz changing my love fortunes far beyond even the most optimistic of expectations. It's not that crystals in themselves does anything, all they do is send out vibrations. Akin to a candle sending out light. A candle itself doesn't do anything, all it does is send out light. And so are the crystals, all they do is send out vibrations. It's just that the particular vibrations of a little piece of pinkish stone a little over an inch long and 1/2 inch wide has worked to initiate the most profound changes in my love life, even allowing for the fact that Virgos are no good at relationships!!!
However I have no intuition crystals, that is, I don't have any crystals that helps with intuition. Therefore things requiring a certain level of intuition, such as, football tipping, remains subject to misfortunes and curses from other sources.
So in spite of the 2014 tipping being a lost cause, these football musings will still be composed.... cos I HATE the Weevils with an unquenchable passion and I need an outlet to release my frustrations in regards to Weevils. Especially when tipsters have Weevil bias and they all think the Weevils will finish in the top 8. They are the most over rated team in the competition. But in reality they are nothing but tiny little Weevils that are good only to be fed to Piranhas. There is a desperate need for Weevil reality checks, and I am more than glad to do my part to help in Weevil reality checks! Forget the top 8, it's just not gonna happen, and I am NOT sorry about that!!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.......... where are those Piranhas!!!!!
OK that's my frustration released..... now to remember the first match of the 2nd half of Round 1 is on THURSDAY...... watch this space......

Round 1 - Black Saturday
Oh those solar flares! This was indeed a black Saturday which could seal my fate for this seasons tipping comp. First Round picks are always very difficult cos we have little to go on. The pre-season form is no reliable indicator, and you certainly can't go on last year's form. Thus its little more than guesswork. So a score of over 50% would be considered necessary so to stay in contention for the very elusive prizes at the end, exceedingly elusive since Mother's death. Therefore a score of at least 5 is needed. This black Saturday was no help whatsoever.
Granted that the Giants win was unexpected even for a 1st Round game so unlikely anyone else would have picked them. I forget that it rains elsewhere in the country! LOL! Never rains here! LOL!..... quite a comeback in those last few minutes!!!
However the Sun's win was not so unexpected. I said I would not have been surprised to see them win, and well I wasn't.
So we have just one lonely little point from three matches so far. To stay on track for the at least 50% score I will need a win for the final game of this weekend. Carlton and Port Adelaide. We work on the probability theory that there be likely one or two "upsets" each round, that is, one or two matches where the team not expected to win will win. However there are always a few matches that are hard to pick, too evenly matched. Probably about four or five matches each round would come under that category. So need a 50% minimum score from the total of such matches, 2 from 4, or 3 from 5.
Well the Giant's win fulfilled one of the "upsets", while the Sun's win fulfilled one of the "hard to pick" matches. That one I missed. Tomorrow's match - Carlton and Port Adelaide is the 2nd of such matches, hard to pick. It's a home match for Carlton, so perhaps should go with them. Indeed it seems to be the contention of the majority of tipsters. Given that we missed the Sun's win, this makes it more probable that we may be successful in our tips for Carlton. It's like you toss a coin and you get a tails, so more likely to get a head on the next toss. However, a tail still could occur, indeed it is not so rare. And so I be sweating on the Carlton result. Carlton wins, my tipping remains on track. Carlton loses, and I will need 4 points from the remaining 5 matches to keep my tipping on track - very unlikely!!!!!!
So while my life may be improving in significant other areas, it remains to be seen if the football results will improve with it. It seems certain it will NOT be the Maggies year, indeed a very dry year for the Maggies, gonna be one of their down years, may not even make the finals. However there is still hope for the tipping however slim it appears to be at this point in time..... a 1-3 results right now.
