REFLECTIONS

The answer is that no government can take bankruptcy. The most recent of the result of a government going bust is the Union of Soviet Republics: it had to finally dissolve itself out of existence when its state-secrets became too burdensome. There are some Americans sayings States should be allowed to file bankruptcy. The Federal [...]

Oh, Lord, the football hype between Chicago and Green Bay is getting just a bit silly. Help!, I am an innocent bystander caught between their crossfires. My college classmate, Fritz Laeser of Edgewater Inn & Cottages wrote last Wednesday: Aaron Rodgers, who art in Lambeau, Hallowed be thine arm. Thy bowl will come, it will [...]

The social media website called Twitter has constant outages which are caused mainly from its popularity. When this site goes down it puts up a “whale” graphic apologizing for the inconvenience to the users. There was created, from President Obama’s own 2008 campaign signage, an display to explain his administration: See bccohan and @SusanAnneHiller.

It may be hot in Cleveland but its tv-pilot needs development, of course, don’t they all? I thought the best scene was at the end of the show where the four actresses chatted on their front patio. The best line went to Betty White when she was ask why eighty-year-olds wear track-suits: “When we are [...]

Are you better off than you were forty-eight hours ago?

Yesterday I tweeted at #hcsummit while listening to XM-132 (C-SPAN radio) to the latest attempt to sell Americans that nationalising health care is progress. Our ideologue-in-chief was a bit too patronising toward his opposition. (See his treatment of his challenger in ’08, Sen. John McCain (R. AZ) for one example.) Over all, Mr. Obama scolded [...]

George Orwell in his 1984 novel did not take into account a woman can be just as ruthless little “il duce” as any man. ABCnews reports Big Sister shall be watching the Internet during the Olympics. Jason Ryan wrote, “As the winter Olympics begin, the Department of Homeland Security has disclosed that it will be [...]

In the Saint Bernard’s bulletin today there was drawn a comparison between some parishers and the game of football. Since this afternoon is the American feast to commericial hype I submit the following: Quarterback Sneak: Church members quietly leaving before the final blessing. [Forgetting Judas was the first early leaver. ]Benchwarmer: Those who do not [...]

It is not industry — the US Government directly responsible!  In order to avoid spoilage I will just post the link … trust me, the proof is worth seeing. http://www.tinyurl.com/postagw  

Nicole Black, @nikiblack, is coining a new term for social media: Intermedia = interactive media, the next stage of the Internet, where the world interacts, interconnects, interfaces, interweaves, intervenes, and intersects. Intermedia is intergenerational. It’s the intermediate, or next step between what was and what will be. “Inter” means “put to rest,”—and intermedia is effectively [...]

Passing this one on from some friends at another forum … If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one. If a liberal doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed. If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn’t eat meat. If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for [...]

How can a “Republican” Governor allow a ballot issue for granting permission to the state government in order to spend money from future lottery revenues! In the other 49 States we joke that we sent our fruits and nuts by the bus-loads to California. Now, it seems those same fruits and nuts are running that [...]
