I wish I had the energy that this wonderful 82 year old has! What better endorsement then from someone who has lived through so much history and be able to seek a better future for all? I’ve always said, let history be a guide down your path, but don’t let it over come and rule you!

Peace!

Where’s the Bleach?

Waking early as  usual, I left my grandson and spouse sleeping and went down the road to do the laundry at 5:30 am Sunday morning.   Weekends are not a good time to do laundry any time of the day in this area if you want to avoid the crowds.   Already 4 others were there in various stages of washing clothes.  I divided my items into 3 machines,  one for whites, one for darks and one for sheets and towels, which left 5 other washers just in that row alone. making a total of 16 washers just on that side of the laundromat.   There are at least 14 more washers on the backside.   I usually sit out doors and drink a tumbler of fresh coffee brought from home and wait for the clothes to wash.Then after I place them in the dryer I go back home which  is 1/2 mile. away or I  take a walk.  

When I returned to pick up my laundry I got into a conversation with  a guy in his late 30’s. Basically he was complaining about the lack of machines when he wanted to do laundry.  He said there should be a limit on how many machines a person should be able to use.  Now at this time there were very few washers in use.  Apparently he had come in the week before and one woman was using a whole row of machines and all the others were in use.   He stated he only needed one machine once a week and didn’t think that was too much to ask.  (That made me wonder if his t-shirt was naturally gray or supposed to be white! )   I said perhaps she had a house full of kids and found it easier to come once a week instead of several times and that I was sure she wished she had her own laundry facilities at home.    He agreed to my summation but then went on to say that there should still be a limit.  I said I always come early especially if it is a weekend day.  His response was that he hated to get up early.    I thought,  “yep and you like to complain.”

He then went on to tell me of a woman that said to him that she loved doing laundry because it was the only time she got away and stated that he was sure she could find a better  social life then doing laundry.   At that I laughed and told him I was sure she could too,  but perhaps she had kids, a job and a husband to contend with and there wasn’t any time to “get away” alone.  He then said he would never get married or have kids.  I thought to myself, “yep and you better not!”   Geesh!

I wanted to offer him bleach for his wash but thought better of it!I’ve met some interesting people in the laundromat, but never yet one as self centered as this one.

“On the eve of this crucial primary, Mrs. Clinton became the first Democratic candidate to wave the bloody shirt of 9/11. A Clinton television ad — torn right from Karl Rove’s playbook — evoked the 1929 stock market crash, Pearl Harbor, the Cuban missile crisis, the cold war and the 9/11 attacks, complete with video of Osama bin Laden. “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen,” the narrator intoned.

If that was supposed to bolster Mrs. Clinton’s argument that she is the better prepared to be president in a dangerous world, she sent the opposite message on Tuesday morning by declaring in an interview on ABC News that if Iran attacked Israel while she were president: “We would be able to totally obliterate them.”

The NYT had previously endorsed Hillary Clinton. How many others are questioning her tactics, morals and judgement?

Please listen carefully to the words to this song, then think carefully what kind of world you want to live in. Think carefully what kind of world you want for your children and grandchildren.

How long will the American people allow themselves to live with the lies and fear from the government?  

Will Americans ever stand up in force against the bigoted and controlling machines that have run their lives for ever? It’s not the governments fault for where we are, it is OUR fault, it’s YOUR fault. it’s the fault of the people for letting ourselves be blinded and manipulated and to give in to the suppression of critical thinking that our lives depend on!

If the american people do not open their minds and really see what is happening in this beautiful country and with this primary then I believe they deserve what they will get. Unfortunately our children and grandchildren will suffer for it,  and so will the world……..

Here’s an interview that I am sure FOX news only took sound bites from. Somehow this got leaked out and is now on youtube.  Check the video below.

It’s bad enough that the present adminstration run by JW Bush, Cheney and their cronies has sent the reputation of the USA tumbling to all time lows, but now ABC television network, owned by the Disney Corporation has made the USA and our electoral process a laughing stock around the world by the charade called a presidential debate last night.

Charles Gibson and Joe Stephanopoulos sold their souls to the devil years ago and are a blemish on the world of reporting.

MISSOULA, Montana (CNN) – Hillary Clinton on Sunday predicted “more twists and turns” in the primary battle with Barack Obama during a campaign event in Montana — one of the last two states to weigh in on the Democratic presidential race on June 3.    Could it be last night’s debate was a set up to try once more to knock Senator Obama down a few pegs?

Sorry for the rash of videos over the past few days. I guess I was letting out the remnants of inner frustrations that tried to suppress my usual optimistic self over the past few weeks. Spouse had 28 tissue samples of the prostate biopsied and they are all negative for cancer. Looks like he’s safe for the time being. He had to go into the hospital for the day and was quite frantic, though to macho to admit it. He had never been in as a patient before nor had any kind of surgical procedure done. Playing nurse and maid for several days for him would not have been too bad if fate hadn’t stepped in to disrupt things via a binge alcoholic family member who battered me with her suicidal talk. For two days I was on pins and needles over this then it turned to a slow burn as it continued for a week.

I remember a time when I was able to enjoy a glass of wine now and then. I can’t even think of having one now. I can’t enjoy being in any settings where I might see freinds or family drink too much. My entire adult life has been adversely effected by alcoholics.

 
 

 

 

Hillary Clinton would be a real first class act confering with world leaders!

How do you answer that?   How about with the TRUTH?

Why would anyone want someone so out of touch with every day people as Hillary Clinton to represent them as president of the USA? She bought her way into NYS to become Senator, I doubt she’ll be able to keep that seat for another term either. People who go from “bitter” to mad as hell dont’ forget to easily when some things never change and when someone considers them stupid enough to fall for their lies and distortions.

I’m not bitter, nope I’m MAD as HELL! The Republicans, and the wanna be Republican Hillary Clinton, along with the mass media think the American people are ignorant enough not to understand what Senator Obama is saying! They are so out of touch with the common people and have tried manipulating them for so long that they seriously think that we can not see through them and their sick games.

Another Day

march-27-2008.jpg

 

Spring may have sprung two days ago, but the snow decided to pay us another visit.    Like the weather, we never know for sure how each day will twist and turn.   Life is full of endless suprises be they good or bad,  tolerable or intolerable.  It’s how we face and react to them that matters in the end.    Though the clouds arrived and sent  snow to cover the waking earth,  somewhere above the sun still reigns to bring warmth and light to move us forward.

Peace!
