Take the scissors and sharp tools away from the children

I'm not going to spew my anguish about anti-constitutional elected representatives and their fundamental dysfunction. I would but there aren't any elected representatives who desire a government run according to our constitution. So let's just try to start somewhere that will force two gangs of diabolical narcissistic spoiled brats who are only concerned with halting the other gang of diabolical narcissistic spoiled brats from doing anything. Let's insist that despite majorities or minorities of whiners or winners that when we shut them into their respective chambers they must do their job.

Let us insist they throw away the tools they use to torture each other and that allows any single Senator to freeze government entirely for any trivial or diabolical narcissistic reason.

Dreyfuss Civics Initiative Farce

Friday, April 28, 2017

Today on Fox News while watching Tucker Carlson he had a segment with Richard Dreyfuss. I understand Richard sent Tucker and email and requested time on his show to "school us in civics". I'm proud to confess I did not laugh out loud, change the channel, or even start to criticize Richard before the segment began. Another confession, before I get to a remarkable segment and brilliant observations by Richard Dreyfuss. I do not know how or why, but internally I had developed some rather harsh opinions about Richard as being a moron who is anti-American and fundamentally supports socialism and the ideals that would certainly destroy this country. I am giving myself the benefit of the doubt and assuming I did not develop these harsh sentiments about Richard arbitrarily. Because I do not doubt myself I found myself confused as today's segment with Tucker Carlson left me slack jawed, silenced, and then even reluctantly supportive of his "Richard Dreyfuss Initiative".

The Bigger the Government... by Dennis Prager

Transcript

The bigger the government, the smaller the citizen. This is one of the most important realizations about society you will ever have. In fact, this understanding is the primary reason for America’s unique success as both a free and affluent society. (Original Post at Prager U Facts and Sources below Transcript,)

If you care about Online Privacy

If you care about Online Privacy, please read this.
I use Blur's Premium service.  Once exposed to it, I instantly knew I wanted this service. I'm not one who would normally push any product and service, but this new Internet privacy issue seems a nightmare to me and I believe with Blur and a good VPN you may be able to limit how severely your privacy is being violated. If I were not financially challenged, I'd purchase the DeleteMe product as well.

I'm hearing that your Internet Service Provider can now sell your browsing history.  I haven't determined all the details but on the face of it I say: NO THANK YOU.  Here is a recent letter I received from the CEO of Abine, the creator of Blur. 

Given the pending elimination of the FCC’s Internet Privacy Protection regulations, we’d like to take a moment to share our views on what you can do – whatever your political affiliation – to help preserve your online privacy. 

Here’s what’s happening:

Your ISP (e.g. Comcast, Verizon, etc.) will be able to freely track and sell the data they have about your personal online activities. (See WSJ.com for more). Specifically, they will be able to market and sell a list of all the websites you visit from your home without having to get your permission.

Big Joe: A Spark of Sanity in a Sea of the Mindless.

I have tried, like Joe here, for ages, in many different ways, from public service, service in the military, and trying to educate folks about some simple truths that seem lost in the sea of American history misinformation.  I've only become overwhelmed at what must be overcome to let any truth shine into the skulls of these folks who sincerely do not know what they are doing or why they are doing it. 

Overwhelmed because that city is full of those who have yet an understanding of what they are fighting for... or against, just that they fight for what is right.... whatever that is told to them on any given day.  I also wonder from where their "marching orders" come from.

Joe's first confrontation by someone claiming Mr. Trump was not elected president.  Joe asks, "When was he NOT elected?"  And the brilliant response is, "You are on a bicycle and are oblivious." 

White Fang by Jack London: Book Review

White Fang by Jack London
My rating: 5 of 5 stars


White Fang by Jack London: Read on 7/25 to page 44 and on 8/3 to The End.

General Spoiler Warning, applies to nearly all books. If you hear of a book and think you may want to read it based on what you’ve heard, DO NOT READ THE BLURB as the book’s introduction, regardless of where it is listed. This book, at Goodreads, supplied 3 paragraphs of spoilers and one great intro paragraph. IF I had I read the Goodread’s Book intro it would have spoiled 2 parts of the book or at least several paragraphs.

The one good paragraph was this one:

A classic adventure novel detailing the savagery of life in the northern wilds. Its central character is a ferocious and magnificent creature, through whose experiences we feel the harsh rhythms and patterns of wilderness life among animals and men.

☺☻☺☻☺
I can not write a better non-spoiler intro to the book. Sadly it was preceded by those other 3 paragraphs. I try not to write spoilers, or if I do, I at least make you decide to look at it. Rant Complete!

OAN's @Liz_Wheeler on Courage: The black power fist is not courage.

It has been more than a decade since I trusted one word of main stream television media.  To me that was CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, and a multitude of others.  Fox was the only beacon showing some effort to get things right.  Still, they shuffled things around some time back and to me went "main stream media". 

Perhaps it was Bill O'Reilly who believes he 'speaks for the little guy', when all he does is bloviate.  At one point he was relevant and had some grasp of "the little guy" but that was so long ago...  Perhaps at "Culture Warrior", certainly when he started the Killing of everyone.

So for truth seekers, it is a pretty bleak world of news.  Then, by accident I ran across this one video clip from OAN.  I thought OMG!  TRUTH.  I nearly fainted. 

Immediately I shared this as far and as fast as possible, then started searching how I could get access to this station.  Turns out I can't for a variety of access reasons, but I can still catch clips on youtube and follow related facebook pages.

No, I haven't posted in well over a year, but discovering a place like this is worth dusting off the old blogger site.  Enjoy.
