American Idiots

In responce to The Nobel Antidote
An honorable decision not to award a prize.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704224004574489802792690672.html#articleTabs=comments#comment577663

You Mango and Applebaum do make a lovely fruit salad, your opinions however, are not so palatable, I initially disagreed with the decision the award President Obama the Nobel Peace price mainly because the short time he has been in office. Reading similar stories the wisdom of the Nobel committee is clear. We faced 8yr that changed the way the nation thinks collectively, you said "BO and Socialist Democrats and Bureaucratic Czars... are actually trying to deconstruct our Constitution, Bill of Rights and our Democratic Republic and replace it with a hybrid of socialism, fascism, Marxism and communism."
Divisive, inaccurate, they are trying to give the American way back to Americans; the Bush Administration r@ped the Constitution, Bill of Rights- think of free speech zones> where were you guys then, standing in front of the white house in protest? or were you too busy with bring back our troops signs or chanting mindlessly G_d bless America?-Now of course people question, speak-up when TPOTUS is honored by the international community. We truly are a Nation of American Idiots.

Hey, People warned me Carl Sagan was Evil!

It seems that American brains have become like our waistlines, accustomed to fast food; every thing must be consumed fast other wise it will not hold our attention. The same can be said for the way we approach science or technology. I guess in this scenario the fast food places would  be those that provide expanding technologies (Apple) for every day use.
I often feel annoyed when I talk to someone about new scientic discoveries,they look as If I was trying to tourture them. If you watch the clip that goes with this story you'll see what im talking about.

I'm Moderate(d)

Nettrice- I love you for being an American that is so passionate for OUR country.

Before u have the Feds drag me off to Abu Ghraib or label me a worst monster than Polanski consider what I am saying...it has been all knee jerk reactions since 911 we allowed the constitution to be raped by GWB - we have lost what we should treasure the most-being an American.
Being an American meant that, if someone disagreed with us we did our best to not censor them; while at the same time, not allowing chaos from radical minds to take root. Now it is all about being a generically homogeneous American (Devoid of voicing an unpopular opinion, belief, or idea). Today unless you bless America on regular intervals you’re labeled anti-American, I have wept at this new America. I long for the nation that demanded accountability from all of its citizens, The Obama Admin has begun to give a small measure of hope for what we lost. I, am an American, I am AN AMERICAN, I AM AN AMERICAN!
You want to talk about security risks? Our nation seems hell bent in letting the forces of Atrophy win.
As for public forums (they were supposed to serve all) It would be enough to post a disclaimer condone such actions without censor ship, is it to much to ask our citizenry to use common sense?
All I’m asking that we get all the facts first an opinion is not treason!
Not that I need to but I deplore the cowardly, bigoted, illogical tone of the poll,
But if is deemed that no crime has been committed then let the moron have his opinion.
I fear this could have devastating effects for public forums-get ready for stricter censorship, oops! Moderation.

I expect to be admonished for this.

My response to Arianna Huffington's article:
The Sad, Shocking Truth About How Women Are Feeling-

http:///www.huffingtonpost.com/arianna-huffington/the-sad-shocking-truth-ab_b_.html"

Money, Money, Money, Money, Money...As a man I don't pretend that I can speak for Women (Hell, I can't even speak for myself on most days) So imagine how trilled I am to hear, Marcus Buckingham will be on this very forum, to tell those silly little things in mini skirts we call women why their lives suck. I have a deep affinity for self-help, self-promoting, Pabulum Puking, self-discovering gurus. I do declare, he must secretly have a vagina. He speaks on the following topics: "What's Happening to Women's Happiness?" Find Your Strongest Life: What the Happiest and Most Successful Women Do Differently," How does he keep his suits free of milk stains when he's lactating? Genious move, let a guy speak on womens issues. I think a man is the best choice for this topic, who else could write about the struggles of successful women YOU? a woman (pssft!)
Reading your article Ms.Money, Money, Money, Money, Money...Sorry Ms. Huffington, it would seem that since the 70's regardless of their lot in live, pesky women seem hell-bent on being miserable. All I can offer is that mayyyybe; it has to do with the money thing. Consider the following, as women began to take a bigger role in society, they were still expected to “bring home the bacon and fry it-up in a pan” not to mention balance check books, clean the house, wipe dirty bottoms, act like almighty deities and satisfy men’s sexual needs (straight, BI-SEXUAL and everything in between). As to why men seem to become happier I am perplexed, maybe I’ll ask the fellas next time we play our three times a-week golf game. I’m loving this, now (I have always been in absolute awe of my wife’s ability to put-up with my neurosis, her unyielding quiet strength and goodness) I get to tell my wife to stop her winning, because it is she who’s causing her own discontent. Maybe she should get a second job, have you seen green fees lately? Money, Money, Money, Money, Money...

All, You, Your Family, Pygmy Frogs, Jimmy Choo, Lichen, will Die on 2012

Sooo,What are you waitng for? Spend all your retirement money, Have an affair on your (insert expletive here_____) mate, Kill someone who you feel deserves it, have a sex change and the change it back or be neutered. Come-on do it...No you say. Why? Oh yeah because deep down you know its all crap.G_d is the manifestation of destruction in the human psyche.
But to those who still like cling to superstition I propose the following. make a list of 5 things, beliefs, that you question; other that your-own. Then state in any way, why you think each is wrong, false, caca, ect...Too hard i'll give you some to start you off:

Gravity
Judeo-Christian G_d
Elvis
Moon Landing
Any product featuring Billy Mays as a spookman(sorry,spokesman)

Share your list with you friends, and have them make their own. Go over the lists and you will see that some of your beliefs are viewed as wrong or ridiculed by others; impossible, heresy you're always right you're beliefs are the truth...so why the dissention by others? Because no matter what humans still gravitate to myths, strange tales;even the morbid ones in order to explain why we are here, and how all will end.( and all prose to have the superior truth) So no harm believe what you will because I know one thing (maybe more) The world will end when:

the G_d of the Bible calls for judgement day!
for more info see- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_time





The G_d of Islam: the day of judgment, when all will be judged according to their deeds, and
admitted to Paradise or to hell.

The G_d of The Talmud:
According to Jewish tradition, those living during the end times will see:
1. Ingathering of the scattered Jewish exiles to geographic Israel,
2. Defeat of all of Israel's enemies,
3. Building (or divine placement) of the third Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and the resumption of the sacrificial offerings and Temple service,
4. Revival of the Dead (techiat hameitim), or the Resurrection,
5. At some point, the Jewish Messiah will become the anointed King of Israel. He will divide the Jews in Israel into their original tribal portions in the land. During this time, Gog, king of Magog Ezekiel 39, will attack Israel.

The Hindu G_ds : (330 million +)
In Hinduism, there is no eternal damnation of souls or end times. After this evil Kali yuga ends, the next yuga or epoch would be Satya yuga where everyone will be righteous, followed by Treta yuga,Dwapara yuga and then another Kali Yuga. Thus time is cyclical and the epochs keep repeating infinitely. However, the extent of tolerable evil and degradation in each epoch is different and therefore the threshold that is necessary for the manifestation of God's incarnation is different for each yuga. The current yuga is the most evil and so the threshold for the appearance of the avatar is so high that the world needs to degrade to the maximum levels.

The G_d of the maya:
The astronomically-based Mayan calendar will be completing its first great cycle of approximately 5,200 years on the 21 December 2012. Although there is no substantial evidence that the ancient Maya considered the date significant, many people have postulated that this is the "end of the Universe" from the Mayan perspective, and others believe that the Mayans meant this to symbolize the "coming of a great change."
the gods of the Maya groups believe that the universe has been renewed four previous times. The first attempt at human life produced animals instead; the second produced a people made of clay who would eventually become certain insects (such as ants and bees); the third attempt produced monkeys; and the fourth attempt produced us: "true humans." Each prior attempt at the human creation was destroyed by a different catastrophe which ended the universe. These stories vary by Maya group: the animals were nearly destroyed by a flood, the people of clay were nearly destroyed by a flood and then a global firestorm, the monkey-people were attacked by their own belongings and their animals.

The G_d of the Rastafarians:
Rastafarians have a unique interpretation of the end times, based on the Old Testament and the Book of Revelation. They believe Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie is God incarnate, the King of kings and Lord of lords mentioned in Revelation 5:5. While on the one hand Selassie's crowning was seen as the second coming, and events such as the Second Italo-Ethiopian War were seen as fulfillments of biblical and specifically Revelation prophecy there is also expectation that Selassie will call a day of judgment, when he will bring home the lost children of Israel (the black peoples taken out of Africa during the slave trade) to live with him in peace, love and harmony in the Mount Zion in Africa.

Scientology: Olny the G_ds know! (let all jump on couches)

The G_d of science (I decided he should be Carl Sagan-too bad if you disagree, this is not a democracy here)
In my dream, I could read the "Book of Worlds", a vast encyclopedia of a billion planets within the Milky Way. What could the galactic computer tell me about this now darkened world? They must have survived some earlier catastrophe. Their biology was different from ours. High technology. I wondered what those lights had been for; there must have been signs they were in trouble. The possibility of survival in a century -- less than one percent, not very good odds. Communications interrupted. Their world society had failed; they had made the ultimate mistake. I felt a longing to return to earth.
The television transmissions from earth rushed past me, expanding away from our planet at the speed of light. Then suddenly -- silence, total and absolute. But the dream was not yet done.
Had we destroyed our home? What had we done to the earth? There had been many ways for life to perish at our hands; we had poisoned the air and water; we had ravaged the land. Perhaps we had changed the climate. Could it have been a plague or nuclear war? I remembered the galactic computer. What would it say about the earth?
There was our region of the galaxy; there was our world. I had found the entry for earth: HUMANITY: THIRD FROM THE SUN. They had heard our television broadcasts and thought them an application for cosmic citizenship. Our technology had been growing enormously (they got that right). Two hundred nation states, about six global powers, the potential to become one planet. Probability of survival over a century -- here, also, less than one percent. So, it was nuclear war, a full nuclear exchange.
There would be no more big questions, no more answers. Never again a love or a child; no descendents to remember us and be proud; no more voyages to the stars, no more songs from the earth.
I saw east Africa and thought, "a few million years ago we humans took our first steps there. Our brains grew and changed. The old parts began to be guided by the new parts, and this made us human -- with compassion and foresight and reason. But, instead, we listened to that reptilian voice within us, counseling fear, territoriality and aggression. We accepted the products of science; we rejected its methods".
Maybe the reptiles will evolve intelligence once more. Perhaps, one day, there will be civilizations again on earth. There will be life, there will be intelligence; but there will be no more humans -- not here, not in a billion worlds.

As listed above one thing is clear the world will end. I fear that all the conflicting ideologies, will be the cause of the destruction of the world. Rendering all ideologies right, but none to claim victory, nor eternal life.


Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. [Carl Sagan]

Ideologies are Quoted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_time

Acient Music: Again

My parody of "Ancient Music" by American Poet, Ezra Pound (Lustra collection, 1913-1915) http://www.poemhunter.com/best-poems/ezra-pound/ancient-music/:
Mornin is icumen in,
Lhude sing Goddamm,
Thootpaste drop and staineth tub,
And how the wife doth nag!
Sing: Goddamm.
Skiddeth foot and sloppeth floor,
An ague hath my toe.
Freezeth shower, shrinketh privates,
Damm you; Sing: Goddamm.
Goddamm, Goddamm, 'tis why I am, Goddamm,
So 'gainst the mornin's balm.
Sing goddamm, damm, sing goddamm,
Sing goddamm, sing goddamm, DAMM.

A sucker(s) is Blogged every minute.

I posted the following on Zen Habits. Oh! nooo, I'm begining to hear it Ta, Ta,da,Dat,Ta, tat,tat..(The Nutcracker Suite for Solo Piano Op. 71a)
http://zenhabits.net/2009/08/3-jedi-mind-tricks-to-feel-better-in-a-nanosecond/#more-3780

Wow What a great Blog!
It is sooo full of optimism, good cheer, and puppies, rainbows and unicorns!
But what it really reminds me is of the scams, that pump you full of ideas that are supposed to transform you into a superhuman. Most of the people leave comments that lead you to their own sites, where Lo and Behold! You are treated to something (not tangible) that is supposed to fix your life.
Come on which Scientologist, vegan hippie, new age guru is behind this dribble?
I propose a challenge; since all you self-discovering, life coaching gurus (I, more than anyone I know live by the principles of personal accountability, so please don't say I’m the one who has to take the steps that will bring me to success) have the answers; contact me transform me I'm open. Think of it, what a greater achievement then to help a miserable grouch such as myself.

Hip, Hip...Hypocrisy!

Just when I though I would be able to sing again in a manly baritone; comes the story of Plaxico Buress   http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=ArwUJzL2E6V6ijfoyUnZtL8dsLYF?slug=ap-burress-weaponscharges&prov=ap&type=lgns&start_row=1#comments

and well...ma get the bench vice oil, cuz I’m going for a ride. 

People seem to have lost perspective when it comes to this case. This is an obvious abuse of power by the D.A. and Mayor. I have read most comments in this forum; and say that while valid points are made; most of the postings are from a sports fan point of view. I think most are angry at what they see as rich sports personality acting like a spoil brat. Well, the keyword seems to be “rich” and fans think that because they stupidly pony-up obscene amounts of cash, they should dictate the behavior of an individual in a free society. Fans grow frakking-up. And don't pay so much money on sports. The issue is clear, Burress made a series of bad choices that led him to where he is now:
Taking the gun without a valid permit. Taking a plea deal in NYC (NYC jurors are notorious for taking side of one of their own) One has to wonder why the Mayor and NYC DA went so far. Lets take a look:
Both the Mayor and the DA are white males, over 60; rich have an apparent blatant record of supporting white cops involved in shooting black males (black cops as well) always in favor of the white cops. (At worst they seem to get retraining, why not the same for Burress?) Now they claim that they needed to send a message to out of control sports celebrities. Really, other than being a jerk (as I read it not a sports fan. had to look at burgess history before posting) Burress had not been accused of any crimes, was trained in the use of handguns was licensed, and is a family man. Those 2 should just wave the confederate flag, and sing we put that uppity BOY in his place. Seems like a harsh statement on the 2 well consider; Morgenthau has been DA since 1977 and has been re-elected seven times. He has not been opposed in a general election since 1985 and at 90 carries all the dogmatic views of someone his age - The DA office is in need of transfusion of new blood.
According to Bloomberg, Burress is another spoil rich Celeb that thinks the rules doesn’t apply to or should be bent for him. Did he (Bloomy) forget his recent violations when ” Asked if he'd be interested in making it 16 years at City Hall, Bloomberg responded, "The law does not permit it." That's true - but it's also true that the limit was two four-year terms before he made a massive push to get the City Council to change the rules, even though voters twice said two terms were all a mayor should get". (BY Celeste Katz DAILY NEWS CITY HALL BUREAU) http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/2009/07/31/2009-07-31_mike_might_even_mull_a_fourth_term.html
I have only respect for the law; but when it fails, as in this case; I feel a message needs to be sent specifically to the geriatric duo. If you can rape the law then Burress, who is mostly harmless should get a get out of jail free card.

No, we cannot just get along!

I don't know how I get into these things - I guess the universe is a b-tch that wants to keep me grouchy. The following is my response to the most intellectually challenged website(EVER for now, maybe) my response is below.

Posted on www.topix.com


What a great post!

Yeah smelly, ugly, non-showering, interbred, turban wearing, monkeys. Whether Hindu or some other kind of other dude; Pakistani, Hindustani they are all Stanis to me.
They should go back to the muck they came from- while they're at take the g_d damn, dirty ass Puerto Ricans, worthless Cuban cockroaches and all other spics. But hey lets continue
And wish that they also take White Crakers, Negros, Chinks, Pollacks, Jews (never forget the Jews, they certainly will never let you) the Das boot German Nazis(Ay)rabs, (I)talians and the other 6,000,000,000 Humans alive today! For if just one of the different kinds of people alive today is inferior or worthless, then so are we all as a species.
I have never met a person Indian or otherwise, that would make me condemn a whole race! I admit freely to be one of the non-Indian men that is married to an Indian woman, and to Mr. Patel and others that defame women in general-be, careful because there is a special place in hell waiting for you! As for mine she is of the most beautiful guise and demeanor-be jealous.

Samir Patel= Hero until page 10 of this forum, because he embodied (in all his splendid stupidity)
The most important of all rights in a free society- freedom of speech.

Samir Patel= A spineless coward on page 10 when he states "Yes you are right. I should stop insulting the Germans, I am very sorry to insult you people and if I hurt your feelings. I don't hate the Germans in fact I secretly consider the Germans to be an Indo Germanic Aryans and admire their culture and contributions. Moreover, I hold zero spite towards the Englishman whom are also Indo-European. I believe my rage towards the Germans is the result of a few bad experiences with ignorant German people when I visited Berlin a few years back.
Sincere apologies".

Seems that somewhere along the way SP remembered that Indians; particularly Gujaratis (99.9% are Patels)know each other, or someone that knows you to a scary degree of certainty. The fear alone probably turned him ghostly white. He knows he would get a lot of anger directed at him from the Indian community.
Undoubtedly he is a bit dishonest when he claims that it was bad encounters with a few Germans while on vacation that made him so venomous. If you read his post you will see a pattern that targets white males, this is what a guy does when he loses a girl to an other guy: SORRY YOUR CHICK LEFT YOU MAN!

Samir Patel-has been transformed into the perfection on page 10 when he apologized because that's when he regains his humanity.

Other notables on this forum:

Otto Von Barron, and musician = some of the few human worth ignoring.

Elbebek- you are getting close to goodness, but there is darkness in you. Hope you will shift to the light.

Teutonic Prince
Yours, sir /madam is the only voice that is evolved in this forum. You are non-judgmental (hard to do with this crowd) compassionate and understanding. Truly you are worth knowing as human being.

Finally, whether moron or reasonable kind, a lot of people seem preoccupied by the swastika. Swastika= Iranian, The earliest consistent use of swastika motifs in the archaeological record date to the Neolithic Era. The symbol was found on a number of shards in the Khuzestan province of Iran. End of story.

Like it or not, we are all descendants of Africans( That's right folks we all got a little bit of James Brown in us- Whoa-oa-oa! I feel good, I knew that I would, now....)that spread though the entire world giving rise to what Forensic Anthropologists generally recognize as the three races. Mongoloid, Negroid, and Caucasoid. End of story.

We, Humans whether believer of scientific principles or the divine are the Demons or Saints. We are capable of the most unthinkable evils or the most pure acts of love. We need to decide, are we going to work towards an Utopian world? Or destroy ourselves over stupid differences in superficial anatomy?

Me thinks the good part will prevail, You?

Mortgage Cake

This story (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32186013/) makes me want to put my scrotum on a bench vice and squeeze; until I can hit mezzo-soprano notes. The uplifting tale floating around is about a NJ woman that came up with a brilliant plan to get out of foreclosure, so what would set your friendly blog grouch off?
  • Angela Logan tries to get sympathy from people, when in fact she made bad decisions and now wants people to bail her out.
  • She even ripped of the original cake apple spice. She should have made a banana nut cake!
Here is the story:
"Ms. Logan had a home construction project to repair storm damage and make other improvements to her home. The contractor turned out to be less than honest and hit Logan with thousands of dollars in overcharges she hadn’t planned on. Then an agency that represented Logan in her work as an actor went under, taking thousands of dollars she had coming to her with it".(Mike CelizicTODAYShow.com contributor)

Now all of as sudden, people flock to hand 40 bucks of their hard earned money to help her get out of her mess. What is wrong with that you might say? Then consider the mortgage crisis. It was born out of the greed of financial institutions and individuals that, knowingly purchased Homes they could not afford. Well you know how the story the goes: the government decided to give all those bozo our money to bail them out.

Now it's people like Ms Logan that coming up with excuses- I got ripped off by my contractor and my job didn't pay me! So buy my expensive cake and bail me out of my blunder. Boo hoo! Hey, why not help all saps that have a sad tale. What’s next? Are people are going to start making cakes for any occasion for example: I got a parking ticket- $40 cake, I need to do the laundry $50 cake, a butterfly farted $60 cake. All this is a weird version of stone soup, except at the end of this tale you end with a pricey cake and get to feel good(if your dumb to fall for this scam). If you want to give your hard earned money to people that made stupid chooses; fine, I would love to get $49.99 from you.  In return I will send you in my finest hand writing, a thankful note. If this sounds stupid well it is (and so is giving people handouts when they make bad, selfish, financial choices). The best way to feel good about yourself is to stop enabling people and make your own damn cake. You may even find a con and make yourself some money.
