Problems at FACIM?

Post by Tom
~ At the end of January I ordered two of Wapnick's audio CDs from
Amazon. At that time Amazon indicated the items were not in stock and
it would be about 3 weeks before they would ship. That was OK with
me. Now, 3 weeks later, Amazon tells me that they haven't yet
received the CDs from the publisher, FACIM, at that there will be
another 2 week delay.
~ Is FACIM having some type of organizational problems that anyone
knows about? I would have thought that shipping CDs would be a fairly
routine matter for them, but if Amazon can't get their orders filled,
it sounds like trouble.
~ Anyway, it's not a problem. In the meantime I have found a place
where I can rent these CDs for much less expense. So, I canceled the
order to purchase them from Amazon.
~ Anyone know anything?

I know I'm surprised you ordered Wapnick
CD's to being with. Other than that, no.

Jesus, Fantasy or Truth must be a pretty new one... you could order them
directly from FACIM?

Ken might sign your copies if you ask nicely. Wouldn't that be worth

Linda"Ken might sign your copies if you ask nicely. Wouldn't that be

"Be still my beating heart."

From the poem 'All One', Mary Elizabeth Coleridge (1861 - 1907)

Be still, my beating heart, be still!
There is no hope for thee to-night.
The fading of the wintry light
Has made a blackness of the hill.

Be still, be still, my beating heart!
For thee to-night there is no fear.
The moon has risen white and clear,
And we shall neither meet nor part.

Just a little clip from "Nothing Like the Sun" by Sting:

Be still my beating heart
It would be better to be cool
It's not healthy to run at this pace
The blood runs so red to my face...

I've been through every single book I know
To soothe the thoughts that plague me so...

Sting Live: The Journey & The Labyrinth: The Music of John Dowland
(DVD & CD)

http://astore.amazon.com/miracles-20/detail/B000MGBTHA

In a rare live appearance performing Dowland's music, Sting and
Karamazov's concert at St. Luke's Church in London was also captured
as a live audio recording and serves as the bonus CD included in the
package. Featuring selections from Labyrinth, the CD also contains the
consummate hit "Message in a Bottle" arranged for lute, as well as a
rendition of the Robert Johnson blues classic, "Hell Hound."

And here I thought I had most or all of Sting's work... you know, Sting can
sing anything, anything at all. I have a hard time deciding between 3
favorites: "Nothing Like the Sun" (was played hundreds of times in the 80's
and 90's) "The Soul Cages" (maybe my fave, and written for his father, for
one) and "Sacred Love." I haven't listened to my music for some time now
though... I only started turning the radio up *just* a little so I can make
out some bars and tunes.

You would know better than I would, and I realize I was thinking of Wayne
instead of Ken for some unknown reason now. Well Ken is still an ole fart,
and doesn't back up what he says on the phone in my case at any rate. Next
time (hopefully there won't be a next time) all of the missing notes start
to get under my skin, I think I'll get me a tape recorder for the phone! I
still recall this conversation, in which he told me I could have access to
the notes. I think it was Doug who said Ken was only jawing with me, or
that I couldn't be depended upon to present accurate information about the
dealings. Oh well.

"The public domain version of A Course in Miracles is presented in this
site."

Well, it is one of several, and one that shows 11660 basic changes compared
to the ur-compendium (hlc) that appeared 29 November '99. Someone
obviously was out to demonstrate how to *really* mess with the Course.
This one even misses entire sections....

~ So, I joined this audiobook rental program thinking they had 14 or
15 of Wapnick's CDs, but they don't actually have any in stock and
availale for shipment. It seems that nobody had ever asked for them
before me. They have to get the CDs from their distributor, which has
them in stock . . . . or so they think.

~ Anyway, in the meantime, they are sending me a CD by Robert Perry.
