Author	Topic: Can't figure out what Gooberz means
Philbird Newflake Posts: 1 From: Douglas AZ. USA Registered: Jun 2011	posted June 29, 2004 12:42 AM I'm reading and reading....Twice she mentions Goobers, the candy. But why is the book titled gooberz? Is it the twin-self of Raisonetz? IP: Logged

Randall Webmaster Posts: 16199 From: Saturn next to Charmainec Registered: Apr 2009	posted June 29, 2004 01:06 PM GOOBERS is a 29 (not good). GOOBERZ is a 33 (AWESOME). GOOOBERS is a 36 (also good). ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

silverbells unregistered	posted June 29, 2004 04:01 PM I think that we are looking for a more extensive explanation or notion. Come now, I also would know what your thoughts are on what significance there is in "Goooberz" the name. She mentions the Oober Galaxy (obviously) and I used to think that it was some corruption of that or something but it's got more to it I suppose. Why the Oober Glalaxy? It seems right though. OR perhaps there is significance in the "G" of some ancient wisdom. When added to the front of the right-seeming Oober it becomes some special and magic in an ancient wisdom way. ------------------ Get some love in your groove, just get hip to forgive - Michael Franks IP: Logged
Randall Webmaster Posts: 16199 From: Saturn next to Charmainec Registered: Apr 2009	posted June 29, 2004 11:05 PM Somewhere buried in the book, she explains it, but I doubt I could find where, and I don't recall her entire explanation. I know it does have to do with the candy, though. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

Special unregistered	posted June 30, 2004 06:27 AM Wasn't it to do with the Goobers peanuts that had manifested on the table in the hotel room, after her meeting with the turbaned One.. they were lying there next to a business card saying 'Expect a Miracle'. Also I remember in Star Signs, Linda talking about the letter G - as in Guru and deciphering as 'Gee U R U'!! I don't recall if she spiralled any more on G, as a seperate meaning to Gooberz? There is a meaning I know, to Oober, unfortunately at work at the mo so can't check the books on that - or what I said above ------------------ "Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent."

Special unregistered	posted June 30, 2004 07:10 AM I posted in 'mystical rainbow's' topic 'I dont have a Gooberz' how the publishers confirmed (through bookshops) that Gooberz is out of print, but there are two editions - one is around �17, and the other's �28. Does anyone know the difference in these copies? ------------------ "Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent." Victor Hugo IP: Logged
Philbird Newflake Posts: 1 From: Douglas AZ. USA Registered: Jun 2011	posted June 30, 2004 09:14 PM I'm just a little preturbed... It could be as simple as this. Goobers are candies. They are mentioned quite frequently in the book. Was the Z added for a logical reason? Seems like the word was twisted all around to make it sound thought provoking. It's just like Boyz In The Hood! It's just plain tacky. That's all. And I don't know why I care. IP: Logged
Saturn's Child unregistered	posted June 30, 2004 11:10 PM Special is right. The preface in Star Signs tells of the box of Goobers appearing misteriously on the table after the "Turbaned One's" visit. Linda then alludes to a "traumatic" experience involving Goobers earlier in her life. Randall is also correct when he says the spelling was changed because the added o's and the z results in a more harmonious vibration. Linda goes into a little detail explaining that in the preface as well. There is some explaination of the "ooberz" too, but I don't recall exactly....I have just started rereading Gooberz and hope to come across it..but am only on canto 4 right now........hope this helps some phil.

Randall Webmaster Posts: 16199 From: Saturn next to Charmainec Registered: Apr 2009	posted June 30, 2004 11:16 PM I seem to recall a story of Linda meeting a guy in a movie theatre whom she for a moment thought was her Twin. Wasn't there something about Goobers to that? I need to read this again. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

Saturn's Child unregistered	posted July 07, 2004 11:49 PM Well..I was reading Gooberz last night and there it was...the whole Goobers peanut thing...It first happened when Linda and Bill Snyder (Carousel Bill) went to a movie. He went to the lobbby and returned with a box of Goobers, telling her that they were magical and from another Galaxy..and that if she ate them she would become teeny tiny...she gobbled them down and for the rest of the evening he pretended that she was sooo small he couldn't see her. "Oh! He was magic!" Hence the Gooberz and the Galaxy! Canto eight: And we were one Blessings: IP: Logged

Randall Webmaster Posts: 16199 From: Saturn next to Charmainec Registered: Apr 2009	posted October 02, 2004 03:22 PM I think he may have started it by calling her that (saying they would run off to an OOber universe). ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."
