Recent Texts with my mother, from Friday, 10/6/23 -  Tuesday, 10/10/23 ~ Unitarian Universalist,Quakers,Law,Cuttyhunk, "Society and Information Technology, and the Global University" book 


Friday, 10/6/23 - 

Hi Ma, from New Bedford ... Just met Unitarians' Tim House and Ann Gary at 4 corners on Cuttyhunk earlier ... Nice to see them! And just passed by the Unitarian Universalist Church of New Bedford ... Am here in New Bedford looking for a possible lawyer and regarding Sandy's possible stealing of the Cuttyhunk house from me, and potentially you too. Found a lawyer John P Mathieu at 8th and Elm Street ... and regarding my being an owner, and sandy as caretaker not providing me the new keys, after I got the old keys a few weeks ago - a further key aspect of ownership - and decades after Dad got his subdural hematoma on Dec 30, 2004, and passed away in Nov of 2007. May head to VT or NH today ... to a wilderness area, and possibly find a Motel along the way ... Love, Scott (Seeking to grow MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch fulsomely ... and it would be great to stay in the Cuttyhunk house for 2.5 weeks in October if at all possible. ... May seek to see a Massachusetts' lawyer on Monday morning in NB, and after I find a few further names on their offices).  (Glad I'm still alive ... and time to bring some further Massachusetts' legal processes to Cuttyhunk, and to protect people). Will talk with you soon! Love, Scott



Ma, I could be interested in returning to Cuttyhunk on Monday, or Sunday ... and to write my book further ... and regarding being an owner ... am realizing I may have to see a lawyer on Monday in these regards. Love, Scott




Hi Ma, I reached out to Attorney James Hodgson in New Bedford along with Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Charlie Nesson at 5:34 this evening ...Dear Attorney Hodgson,


Greetings. I found your name on the web in seeking a lawyer who had some Harvard connection, and in communicating with Harvard Law Professor Emeritus (still teaching) Charles Nesson about the issue that follows.

... and about Sandy potentially stealing the Cuttyhunk house and owner - caretaker legal questions and some other issues ... I may not hear back until Monday but am glad I reached out and have been emailing and documenting this thus far. If for some reason, we could meet tomorrow, that would be great and I'm staying in the area just in case. Glad I think Charlie Nesson is in the loop. Love, abolitionally, your son, Scott  (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Harvard)






Monday - 

Hi Ma, autumn is deepening here in Dartmouth near the Padanaram bridge (and with great free showers) ... slept well last night in my 1.5 feet too short 2016 Toyota Prius c (4th generation) between the beautiful 2 lagoons ... The 10/9/23 WUaS News and Q&A just happened at 1pm and here's  the recording and blog post - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/10/red-rose-rosa-iq-national-flower-of-iraq.html ... Unfortunately, or fortunately, Paul Klinkman didn't participate as he said he would ... and regarding his possibly clerking a new New Bedford Quaker Meeting World Univ & Sch committee ... and possibly with a MIT staff person, Martha, on his committee, who could invite lots of MIT folks to help work on and grow World Univ & Sch ... Stay tuned, love, abolitionally, your son, Scott 🙂 (How are you doing? ... I haven't heard back yet from Attorney Jim Hodgson or further from Harvard Law Prof Emeritus Charlie Nesson ... but I could well hear today from Attorney Hodgson re possibly meeting to confer about 3 way ownership questions regarding the Macleod Cuttyhunk house, and a related possible legal document), Love, Scott



Hi Ma, I am sitting here on the front steps of the Unitarian Church in Providence RI near the Brown Univ campus, a building first erected in 1720 ... Old Protestant Church ... Parked near the corner of Thayer and Williams thanks to Google Maps, and wondered if a house there was a hippy common in the 1960s and '70s, asked a Brown Univ student where I could find out and she suggested the Hay library (John Hay library -20 Prospect St
https://maps.app.goo.gl/jnHi2EkAzEteaJdDA ) so may head there and ask what resources they have and even explore how I could add any photos to Google Street View with the time slider of this 58 Thayer or Williams street house  :) How are you? Growing WUaS in Street View with the time slider too as campus and ethnographic field sites). Love, abolition ally, ❤️, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/field%20site ... heading on foot to the library before it closes at 5pm ... http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/libraries)



Ma, the John Hay library was closed -  this being Indigenous People's Day or Columbus day - and so was the building next door, Comparative Literature, so I walked around the next corner farther and into a grassy Brown yard I had visited on the opening weekend of classes, and saw the anthropology museum with the door ajar,  went in (needing also to pee) and there's a chapel above the Anthro museum, the door was open, walked upstairs and in an open chapel for (Christian, probably nominally Catholic but now multi-denominational ) services decided to have a wee meditation "sit" like I do first thing usually upon rising - Yoga meditation-wise, and Quaker Un-Programmed Meeting- wise too ... Nice ... in Half Lotus, both sides, bit on a bench ... and may be able to find a restroom heading out the back door and downstairs. Three Brown women students just walked into the front pews, and are sitting quietly now ...  wishing the benches weren't slanted back but rather forward slightly or level for meditation and that I could easily do Yoga mudrasana in half lotus too ... Love, abolition-ally ❤️, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/meditation)



Hi Ma, Back from Providence RI and Brown Univ ... visited Iyengar Yoga Source school ... and where Scottish Country Dancing is danced in nearby Cranston RI ... 3rd gallon of skim milk still isn't soured after purchasing them on Friday morning before the Cuttyhunk ferry ... impressive ... Was going to make a big donation of perishable foods from Friday early to the New Bedford Quaker Meetings' back door🥰, went there today, but as I looked through 5 banana boxes in car, I found that I'd risk keeping 3 dozen eggs, and 4 qts of Cottage cheese and 3 quarts of yoghurt or 4-10 lbs of cheddar cheese  etc ... If the way opens to refrigeration and a stove for example in the next few days ... Some lettuce is wilting ... but I am eating up the things that might spoil first ... Avocado was nice and ripe today ... May head to RISD's museum and get a XXXL Brown sweatshirt OR 2 or similar on Thursday ... May head to the Fogg and Isabella Stewart Gardner museums and Harvard and MIT tomorrow and Wednesday ... Brainstorming, I could invite the Robbs to a 3 person wheelchair get together at a museum re Dick's strokes ... but I'd have to find a wheel chair for myself :) to be in solidarity with Dick possibly ... Asked the Bridge Tender (from whom I get shower key) in Padanaram how he might put a canopy over a 17 ft Boston Whaler speed boat ... For calling under 10 feet of one in 2 sleeping bags, for adventurous me, and in case of rain, say at anchor, at Quicks' Hole between Nashawena and Pasque islands ... And he suggested a boat yard place on Gifford St in NB ... Saw a pretty and tall woman, maybe 23 yo in the hand of a wedgies' guy in a pretty neighborhood  ... Did she smile at me? Someone tall and Anglo and going on to Med Sch? No further word back from Ed yet re moving into a newly safe open Canyon 94516. I also am (small) car camping again between 2 beautiful lagoons in Dartmouth MA. How was your day, and how are you? Love, abolition-ally ❤️, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Richard%20Robb%20MD)







Tuesday - 

Hi Ma, from Hingham MA and visiting our ancestors' house Benjamin Lincoln and before that Thomas Lincoln ... and you'll find a direct line from you to Benjamin Lincoln here  http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/05/yucca-flower-nm-new-mexico-state-flower.html - with all the individuals a WikiTree entry ..
 Love, Scott
