60. The Truth from your Lord alone, so be not of those who doubt.
61. If anyone disputes in this matter with you now after knowledge has come to you say, "Come! Let us gather together, our sons and your sons, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves, then let us earnestly pray, and invoke the curse of Allah on those who lie!"
(The Family of Imran 3:61-62)
Yeah, blond roots! Natty, you are a pure beauty. I love you with all of my heart. I guess I'm a pure bred too. But being a pure bred doesn't make me a Godfather. There's no such thing as a godfather in Islam anyway. Nah, I'm just a regular guy. A Bill, Bob, Chuck or Joe.
I did buy a big block of cheese today for the Great Pizza Day! Well it's about a kilo, which is a big block to my budget. I have have all the basil I need too. But basil needs to be cleverly harvested, otherwise I will have withered or mottled leaves on Great Pizza Day. Timing is crucial! I also gave in to gluttony and bought a chicken for BBQ. I haven't cooked BBQ chicken in years! Not that I don't want to, but BBQ was making me bloated. I also scored a whole lot of free livers and giblets, because people don't know what to do with them. I don't eat the giblets, but the cats love them. I need to cook them up before they become rancid, so it looks like Lookie and Adolf Kitler are going to be porking out on giblets for the next few days.
Hi Natty! How are you, Mrs. Rock Star? You're so pretty! I hope all is fun and easy for you, my darling. Please keep yourself safe and healthy for us. Oh, it's just a regular day here for me. I did my laundry in the morning, plus all sorts of miscellaneous tasks throughout the day. The graveyard task yesterday left me with a limp, but it's the type of limp that needs to be walked off. I had fried rice for lunch, and chicken strips with fries for dinner. I didn't have any breadcrumbs, I didn't want to go out and buy it, so I experimented with alternative coatings for the chicken. Needs work, but the cats thought it was gourmet. I've become fussy about what I dip my fries into. Dammit! I bought an alternative brand of ketchup at the local supermarket, but it's crummy. Sweetened red corn starch, if you know what I mean. It looks like I'm going to have to do some research into fry sauce, or fork out the bucks to buy Heinz.Do you miss Venice Beach? I don't. I've never been there, I don't ever want to go there, but I have been to Santa Monica. This is the best video I think that German in Venice has ever done. He wasn't even trying, either. It's so entertaining! Those cops look like they came straight out of Police Academy. You're German too, aren't you? Anyway, the award for "Best Video He's Ever Done" goes to German in Venice!
Hi my beautiful Natty! How are you today, my love? I'm sure whatever it is you're up to, you're going to perform fabulously. I hope everything is easy going and enjoyable for you. I think of you always, and I love you with all of my heart. It's Monday over here for me. I cleaned the filters and fans in my mother's house this morning, and I tidied up my grandparents' grave in the evening. I ate out for both lunch and dinner today. It's a job, I know. Ah but the most enjoyable part is watching the music come together, like a set of perfectly fitted gears inshaAllah. Right now, I'm on the final bass part and about to move on to drums next. Noisy and scary! No electronic drums for Shadowplay! Actually I have one bass part left to do, because the first instrument was guitar. That's going to be the most difficult song on the next album: guitar with pulsating tempo then drums then bass.
On the Venice Beach Boardwalk video today dated 6/26, the homeless encampments are about the same in number, but moved south further away from the Santa Monica border.
There are more cops and less tents in today's Venice Beach Boardwalk video tour dated 6/25.

29. Say, "Whether you hide what is in your hearts or reveal it, Allah knows it all. God knows what is in the heavens, and what is on earth, and Allah has power over all things."
30. On the day when every soul will be confronted with all the good it has done, and all the evil it has done, it will wish there were a great distance between it and its evil. But Allah cautions you Godself, and Allah is full of kindness to those that serve God.
31. Say, "If you do love Allah, follow me. Allah will love you and forgive you your sins, for Allah is Oft-Forgiving, most Merciful."
32. Say, "Obey Allah and God's messenger." But if they turn back, Allah loves not those who reject faith.
(The Family of Imran 3:29-32)
Hi Natty! How are you feeling today, Honey? Are you ready to take on the world again? You can do it! I told you you were resilient. Now don't worry about a thing my beautiful, precious darling. Everything is going to work out just great for us inshaAllah. Wow, it's almost past half the year already! It's almost time for the Great Pizza Day. I have to start preparing. Make sure you celebrate the Great Pizza Day, OK? Oh wait a minute, your birthday falls on the Great Pizza Day, so you will automatically be celebrating it. That's good, now you don't have to worry about losing the Presidency or something like that.
In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful
