Winter 2012

Geez it's cold. How have I managed to survive these winters all these years?

When is summer coming?

At Last

What a classic above...

What a fun, alive character compared to those drips from the Reflublican party...

Hibernating

It's the Time Of The Season...for sitting inside and doing very little and waiting winter out. But it can be very grey and dreary.

Such is life.

I have learned just to accept the weather. It is what it is. But it certainly can get dreary over an extended period. There's always Farcebook!

Ho Hum

All the rage that is causing media types to fall over themselves with analysis, etc., of the Republican presidential race in the U.S. is absurd. Let's face it--the U.S. Republicans are a bunch of right-wing whackos, many of whom believe that the world will end tomorrow.

Even though life has continued as usual EVERY TIME the world was supposed to end or what have you.

Don't these people, who are otherwise intelligent, 21st-century inhabitants of a world that will NOT end tomorrow, or any time soon, learn? We are the most evolved beings on the planet. We have the intelligence to LEARN.

The majority of us do it gently, factually, WITH facts. NOT unproven, invisible concepts or fairytales that other humans have developed and written to give us hope in the absence of any other explanation about the origins of life.

Year after year, scientists try to debunk this stupid religion thing and the notion that we could have been God's Creation last week or anytime recently. This is despite all the evidence to the contrary. It defies all logic.

But who ever cared about logic? Certainly not Evangelicals or those who believe in any other religion. WE invented religion because people who can't bare the thought that we die, and that's it, can't handle the concept that we just die and go away.

It's like these people need to be slapped in the face or have cold water poured on them to get them to come to their senses, which aren't sensible at all. Dinosaur bones have repeatedly been found. There is no proof that God existed.

Still, there's a HUGE percentage of people who WANT to believe and any amount of logic or proof or anything means little to them. TO them, they believe, and that's good enough. That's why they call it faith.

They BELIEVE despite everything because they WANT to believe. It seems that's what FAITH is -- the belief, despite all the proof to the contrary, that their God exists. The point is, there's NO WAY of positively proving NO GOD exists.

So in their mind, he MUST exist.

Occupying 2011

It got tiring. After a while, I was making jokes about Occupying my bathroom. But it was the thing that was most noteworthy about 2011. It was like Four Dead in Ohio. But I'm sure it made Fat Cats the world over sit up and take notice.

The way I see it, when it all comes down to the basics, they shit the same way I do.

I'm not part of this movement, but I'm proud of the people who are.

There ARE stupid things about it, no doubt. But the premise of the movement is hard to argue with. There IS the 99 per cent. Then there's the one per cent. And our young people, thank God for them, have basically done what WE wouldn't do.

The 99 per cent is taking on the one per cent.

Good for them.

So let's get this straight. More than 72,000 people clicked "like" on this Farcebook ad for a well-known appliance maker. So this appliance maker can no doubt get their contact info and can maybe sell them a new appliance. Bingo Bango Bongo.

Bob's yer uncle.

Liking is an emotion. It is a way we feel, a mechanism advertisers use for how we feel about a product or activity. They aren't stupid.

 It is nothing but a Farcebook handy way for us, rather than spend 30 seconds of our lives typing out the words "I like that," and here's why, to avoid spending MORE time worrying about the next mortgage payment or paying off a credit card bill.

Outa mind...

If we don't think about things, we don't have to solve them if they're problems. We don't HAVE to get the car fixed. We don't HAVE to clean the house. We don't HAVE to go for a run around the block.

Farcebook is the new TV. Instead of watching the pap on TV, we can go on Farcebook and say that we are "intellectually" being stimulated. We might be turning into Jabba The Hutt, but that's a minor point.

Legends

THIS is a legend.

Below is the modern-day dictionary meaning of a legend.

1.	a popular story handed down from earlier times whose truth has not been ascertained
2.	a group of such stories: the Arthurian legend
3.	a modern story that has taken on the characteristics of a traditional legendary tale
4.	a person whose fame or notoriety makes him a source of exaggerated or romanticized tales or exploits
5.	an inscription or title, as on a coin or beneath a coat of arms
6.	explanatory matter accompanying a table, map, chart, etc
7.	a story of the life of a saint NOT what the TV weenies tell you. Nothing that happened yesterday, last year, last century or last minute, as the TV weenies, particularly mindless sportscasters, would have you believe, is a legend or is legendary. It has become, in the mindless pap of TV that seems so acceptable nowadays, another overused and improperly used word to mean significant and memorable talent that we all should or do consider as a legend in our own time. It is mindless TV pap designed to save time. You or I could be legends in our own time if it meant they could save another 30 seconds to show that ad we've all seen a million times.
