stuck people attend church of god the utterly indifferent in downtown gastonia

Some of Gastonia's Stuck People recently ambulated downtown for a service  of the Church of God the Utterly Indifferent. Those from area Medicaid facilities started early to get back in time for nightly bed check.  Some attendees walked; some pushed others in wheelchairs. Several riding on Jazzy motorized wheel chairs pulled other chairs. One thin man on a 49 cc motor scooter used a large rope to tow an inoperative scooter on which a man and a large woman rode. As is typical of these services, the preacher did not show up and the church members did not acknowledge one another. After drifting aimlessly for a hour they left, leaving a cheerful man on a Jazzy. He was preceded a little white fluffy dog. He did not know about the service and was only here to walk his dog. He said, "When Geraldine gets tired I carry her."

Aside: Craxxkkau, a 11 year old artist and warrior princess coined the term "Stuck People" when seeing residents of South Haven Long Term Care facility sitting out front smoking cigarettes. When I asked what happens to the Stuck People, Everett, five year old existential philosopher answered without hesitation, "They die."

Ella and Asymptote

I dropped by to visit Ella at her coffe shop. I haven't seen her in a while.

Then I took my coffee and wandered over to the little park next door. Looking at the abstract wall...

 Up close, I saw this...

A voice behind me said, "It's an asymptotic graph."

I know the man but he made me promise not to shoot his picture or use his name. He has prematurely white hair. Call him D.

I said, "Hey D, what are you doing here?"

"That doesn't matter. That is the mark of the Church of GUI. Asymptotes approaching infinity."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

He gave me a piece of paper. "See this?"

Asymptote

A line and a curve approach infinitely but never touch.

We ride from left to right between the top and the bottom, between the giddy heights and the bottomless pit.

When we can no longer climb the giddy heights we jump infinity and fall into the bottomless pit then climb out.

Again.

"Yeah I see it."

"That is what it's about."

"What? I don't understand."

"The giddy heights and the bottomless pits. Jumping infinity. It explains everything."
