AUGUST ELECTION ANALYSIS -- ELECTORAL COLLEGE
AUGUST ELECTION ANALYSIS -- ELECTORAL COLLEGE
Every 4 years in America we play a game called
"Electoral College." The rules of the game are basically that only a few states will determine who becomes the next President.
This will change in 2020 when the
www.nationalpopularvote.com
becomes law and makes every vote equal throughout the United States.
In August 2016, this is how the Electoral College Map looks. They show the importance of the states in comparison. You will notice that the colors of blue dominates. They correspond to the latest polls.
Nothing matters but who wins the most Electoral College votes. Everything else is insignificant.
I think you can determine the most likely outcome from this map. If Arizona and Georgia turn blue in the next few weeks, it's back to game shows for Donald Trump.

The newest Beatles album, “Revolver,” was being
released in America. I was at a 3-week summer camp, Camp Chi in Lake Delton, Wisconsin. Campers had no access to any radios, TVs, or a record player.
However, a counselor saved the day by going into the Wisconsin Dells and bringing back the album for all of us to listen to. It was overwhelming.
I'm going to talk about what it was like hearing those songs for the very first time. I will make reference to the American version of “Revolver,” which is minus the songs “And Your Bird Can Sing,” “Dr. Robert” and “I'm Only Sleeping” which us lucky Americans got to hear two months earlier on an “let's make an extra Beatles album for those Beatles-obsessed Americans” put out by Capitol only in the U.S.
Side 1
“Taxman” – Whoa! The Beatles are getting political for the very first time. They're complaining about the high taxes they have to pay. And they even are attacking British prime ministers.
“Eleanor Rigby” – This is some kind of extraordinary poetic musical masterpiece using only an orchestra. And it's got a sad story and a very sad feeling.
“Love You To” – Uhhh, can you put the needle ahead to the next track?
“Here, There and Everywhere” – This is to date the most beautiful song the Beatles have ever recorded.
“Yellow Submarine” – It's a children's song! I wonder if it's going to catch on?
“She Said, She Said” – This has a really interesting sound to it.
Side 2
“Good Day Sunshine” – This song really make you happy! It sounds like it should be in a musical.
“For No One” – That is a really sad love story.
“I Want to Tell You” – There are some really brash chords in there.
“Got to Get You Into My Life” – Wow! The horns are fantastic.
“Tomorrow Never Knows” – What Was That???
Can you play that again? (there was no slang word “psychedelic” yet in America)
I listen to “Revolver” no less than 25 times a year. I have heard it a minimum of 1,250 times.
In Mono. In Stereo. (there are mix differences in some of the songs). The U.S. Version. The British Version. On LP. On 8-Track. On Cassette. On CD. On MP3. On Remastered CD.
When I slow danced later that week to “Here, There and Everywhere” and I saw the tears in her eyes, and in the eyes of every girl slow dancing in the room. And I saw the other 13-year old males overcome with emotion that they were not supposed to be showing.
The Beatles. The soundtrack of our lives.
HIROSHIMA -- Was There An Option 71 Years Ago Today?
HIROSHIMA -- Was There A Specific Option 71 Years Ago Today?
The debate goes on every year at this time.
We can get into every possible angle on this so I am just going to focus on one particular question.
Could the United States have done a live demonstration of an atomic weapon on a remote island or shown the film footage of the "Trinity" test taken in New Mexico to a panel of Japanese military and scientists?
Why do I even ask this?
That is because the United States is supposed to take the high road and set examples for the rest of the world.
1. Would the Japanese believed that the film footage of the "Trinity" test was real?
ARGUMENTS AGAINST:
*Probably not. Animation and special effects were already so sophisticated in both the American and Japanese film industry for the time, they would have thought it was created at Disney.
2. Could Japanese representatives been taken to an empty remote island and a demonstration show them the awesome destruction of an atomic bomb?
ARGUMENTS AGAINST:
*There is a possibility that the bomb would have not gone off and nothing would have been accomplished.
*It would have been one less atomic bomb the U.S. would have had. There was the "Trinity" bomb, the Hiroshima bomb, the Nagasaki bomb and unknown to almost everybody--there was one more ready to go.
*The Japanese might not have been impressed regardless. After all, they didn't seem to be bothered by 100,000 Japanese dying in May 1945 during the ultimate U.S. bombing of Tokyo. They wanted to keep going even after that.
ARGUMENT FOR:
Maybe showing them the film would have made them surrender.
Maybe demonstrating the real thing to them on an empty remote island would have made them surrender.
If both of these options were presented, there was nothing to lose. The subsequent plans could have continued if the results were not satisfactory.
Should the U.S. have at least tried these options?

THE MEDIA IS SLANTED. isn't it fun???!!!
Even though I am thoroughly enjoying every minute of today's media alliance to pounce Donald Trump, I must admit that this coordinated coalition effort among America's media (with the expected exception of Fox News) proves that the Major Media has specific agendas that coincide with their corporate perspectives.

RUSSIAN HACKERS -- THIS IS WHY THEY LOVE DONALD TRUMP!
It would appear that Russian Hackers are responsible for getting into the Democrats' databases and releasing information that could help Donald Trump and hurt Hillary Clinton.
There has been days of speculation as to the political motivations of these sinister acts of the Russians.
Nobody realizes the real reason! Here it is!
Donald Trump loves Vodka. Russians love
Vodka. Therefore, Donald Trump loves Russians!
Think about it. Donald Trump even went as far as creating his own Vodka, as brief as it lasted. This gesture brought warmth and devotion from all Russian citizens! The Moscow GUM department stores proudly carried the Trump Vodka while it existed!
Have you ever seen the Democrats go out of their way to love the Russians?
Did Hillary Clinton come out with a personal line of Babushkas? That would have melted the Russian soul. Did Barack Obama come out with his own brand of cigarettes? Russians would have adored him for that.
Now you now. The way to a Russian's heart is through Vodka, Babushkas and Cigarettes.

Is Anybody Else Going "Huh"? John Hinckley Being Released.
On March 30, 1981, 25 year-old John Hinckley, who was trying to impress actress Jodie Foster (I'm not making this up) tried to assassinate the new President Ronald Reagan who came within an inch of losing his life.
Three others were wounded including press secretary James Brady who would spend the rest of his life incapacitated.
This release can only happen in the new Topsy-Turvy America.
Watch the event unfold if you were not around:

Marni Nixon You've heard Her -- But May Not Know That It Is Her
That is not Natalie Wood really singing the wonderful strains of "Tonight" and "I Feel Pretty" from "West Side Story." That is not Deborah Kerr delightfully crooning "Getting To Know You" and "I Could Have Danced All Night" in the "King and I."
And that is certainly not Audrey Hepburn enchanting us with "The Rain in Spain" and "Wouldn't It Be Loverly" in "My Fair Lady."
In these movie versions, they are all being dubbed and sung by a lady named Marni Nixon who has passed away at 86.
If you've seen "The Sound of Music," that is actually her singing and on-screen as one of the nuns.
Her voice was heavenly.
DONALD TRUMP ENTERS CONVENTION LIKE JESUS
DONALD TRUMP ENTERS CONVENTION LIKE JESUS
Although the first day of the Republican convention was average and predictable with a number of speakers all attacking Hillary one after another, it was the entrance of Donald Trump which was just preposterous.
Suddenly, the lights dimmed, and a man in shadow came walking on an area of the stage tainted blue with white fog resembling clouds. The song "We Are The Champions" was playing. As he proceeded towards the main podium, it was clear enough to realize the shadow was Donald Trump and the Republicans responded as if Jesus was heading towards them.
He then introduced his lovely wife, who he said would be the next First Lady.
It was just so magical.

SCOTTY MOORE -- THE SOUND OF ELVIS
without his guitarist Scotty Moore.
From the beginning, Moore provided
that distinct sound which appealed
to music fans worldwide and made
Elvis an international superstar.
Today they are together in Rockabilly
Heaven.
Moore is the musical centerpiece of:
Mystery Train, Blue Suede Shoes,
Let's Play House, Jailhouse Rock,
Heartbreak Hotel, That's All Right,
Good Rocking Tonight and many
others.
I had the incredible privilege to
talk with Scotty Moore for a few
hours in the late 90's. It gave me
a front row seat to the Elvis story
from the beginning as it was happening.
He revealed one fascinating fact to me
that is quite extraordinary. Apparently,
Elvis, tired of his whole rock image
and style, told Moore that he wanted
to discontinue singing and instead
form an instrumental group where
Elvis would play piano only.
"Are you joking?," I said.
"No, I am very serious" said the
down to earth guitarist.
Every American Has To Deal With This In Their Own Way
I decided to randomly select one of the 50 people whose lives were cut short last night in Orlando.
I felt this would make it more personal and not just a news story.
Just from the name only, I selected Stanley Manolo Almodovar III.
He was 23 years old and I then found a Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/stanley.almodovariii
He was a pharmacy technician.
He lived in Claremont, Florida and
was originally from Springfield, MA.
I got a big laugh out of this he had to say:
"Do NOT expect me to say 'Bless you" after your 5th sneeze. By then, you need to get your ass under control."
And this statement from him a year ago means
a great deal now:
"Gotta appreciate the little things in life today you can have everything and tomorrow lose everything"
His life was really just getting started.
Who knows what he might have accomplished in later years.
At least now he's not just some name in a story.

72 Years Ago. The Turning Point of World War II. Do You Have a Moment to Thank These Men?
Thousands Died. Thousands Were Wounded. Thousands Were Injured For Life. Hundreds Were Unaccounted For.
It was THE TURNING POINT of the war.
If these brave Americans had not donated their lives, all of your fuckin' Hip Hop, Rap Crap and Prefabricated Manufactured Whore Pop Music would all be in German and would sound like military marches.
Your mindless TV shows which get cancelled with new ones replacing them every 2 weeks would still be the lowest common denominator but would have excessive German laugh tracks.
Your constant sequels and reboots of movies would be up to "Hitler--A Really Great Dude 75."
Your cell phones which have become permanently attached to your hands wouldn't have Siri--they would have "Adolph"--and when you ask for something it would tell you "Ich gebe die Befehle" (I Give the Orders!).
Can you take a minute and thank 80,000 Americans that gave the ultimate sacrifice so you can continue to live your pitiful, meaningless media-obsessed lives?
50 Years Ago Today The Beach Boys Released "Pet Sounds" And Nobody Cared
It was missing the usual Beach Boys songs about cars, surf and California girls.
So basically when it was released today in 1966, nobody cared.
It did yield three big hits, "Wouldn't It Be Nice," "Sloop John B" and "God Only Knows." But in America, the album just didn't sell very well.
It wasn't until about 15-20 years later that baby boomers who missed it the first time around suddenly discovered it. And everybody else as well.
It is now considered the ultimate pop music masterpiece only rivaled by "Rubber Soul" and "Sgt. Pepper" and the only reason that Pepper was created was because Paul McCartney decided he had to top "Pet Sounds."
I've listened to it over 1000 times.
When I first met Brian Wilson in the 1980's, I told him that I had listened to it over 200 times and he was stunned. I then showed him my very worn out copy and of course had him sign it.
These days I am not alone.
When younger people tell me that they love The Beach Boys I immediately ask them if they have ever heard "Pet Sounds."
I usually get "No...but I've heard of it."
If you haven't listened to it you are missing
a major musical experience, way ahead of its time.

"WOMAN IS THE NIGGER OF THE WORLD" Not Politically Incorrect? John Lennon Thought Not. Neither Do I.
In 1972, post-Beatles, John Lennon wrote a song that was very controversial, yet many Top 40 radio stations played it anyway.
The song is called "Woman Is The Nigger Of The World."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtY5bv-oxLE
The song pointed out that women worldwide were treated like black people in America both present and past.
And it apparently has not gotten much better 44 years later.
I am tired of reading about violence against women perpetrated by men.
I am tired of reading about average women being murdered like they are non-people.
I don't want to read anymore that sexual assaults in the military are somewhat down--
and that's supposed to be wonderful news--
when a woman is fighting for this country--and the remaining
freedoms I have--I want her to be given the same respect from
men in the military, that they expect to receive.
I am tired of reading about girls who are children in other countries
being maimed, whipped and murdered because they should be
held responsible that some man attacked them.
I am tired of reading about women being attacked in their schools and universities because "that is the culture now"
You want to use words when dealing with a woman directly-- fine. Nobody gets hurt.
When a man turns to physical abuse and violence against a woman--he is not a man.
And since men have always made the laws and head up the major companies, they have made sure that they get off easy or everything is slanted in their direction.
How many of you men out there are willing to take a stand against the violence that is perpetrated against women?
How many of you men out there are willing to turn to your male buddies and say that all this has to stop now--in America and worldwide?
As politically incorrect as it may be--here are the lyrics
by a man who was clearly ahead of his time:
Verse 1
Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes she is...think about it
Woman is the nigger of the world
Think about it...do something about it
We make her paint her face and dance
If she won't be a slave, we say that she don't love us
If she's real, we say she's trying to be a man
While putting her down, we pretend that she's above us
[Chorus]
Woman is the nigger of the world...yes she is
If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave of the slaves
Ah, yeah...better scream about it
[Verse 2]
We make her bear and raise our children
And then we leave her flat for being a fat old mother hen
We tell her home is the only place she should be
Then we complain that she's too unworldly to be our friend
[Chorus]
Woman is the nigger of the world...yes she is
If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Yeah...alright...hit it!
[Verse 3]
We insult her every day on TV
And wonder why she has no guts or confidence
When she's young we kill her will to be free
While telling her not to be so smart we put her down for being so dumb
[Chorus]
Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes she is...if you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Yes she is...if you believe me, you better scream about it
[Outro]
We make her paint her face and dance[x6]

Something is Vewy, Vewy Fishy Here
Something is Vewy, Vewy Fishy here
Although this might seem comical...
it is really very scary.
Apparently I am supposed to believe that Americans in general transformed overnight from their usual moronic communication abilities to literary geniuses.
In the middle of the night, I just read an article about Donald Trump and his latest frightening predictions about America.
However, in reading the comments from average Americans, something became clear.
The responses--both for and against Trump--suddenly were not the typical style and representation of American 3rd grade communication.
Instead of being filled with spelling errors, inability to answer intelligently, emotional attacks, incoherent sentence structure and the kind of speech you would expect from Jethro Clampett...
the responses were shining examples of perfect spelling, solid arguments on point, referenced with statistics, past quotes, and structured immaculately in style and grammar...
Meaning one thing:
These were written by paid shills in order to influence readers and manipulate their thinking.
Clearly highly college educated responses which do not represent the "business as usual" speaking manner of average Americans.
And this was being done by both sides of the political spectrum.
Realizing that people are influenced by responses they read, it is now obvious that both parties have sunk to an even greater low--tainting the responses to articles posted online.
What used to be authentic responses from Americans are now paid political advertisements and the game is being played by both parties.
The media already manipulates all the news to their corporate point of view--and now not even the comments are legitimate.

IN BIZARRO WORLD AMERICA -- EVERYTHING BE BACKWARDS FROM HOW IT USED TO BE:
*CITIZENS
ENTHUSIASTICALLY WANT A TV GAME SHOW HOST WHO HAS COMMITED ADULTERY AND
MANIPULATED BANKRUPTCIES MANY TIMES TO BECOME PRESIDENT OF U.S.
*CITIZENS ARE SCARED TO SAY ANYTHING ANYMORE -- THEY MIGHT OFFEND SOMEBODY
*PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL PLAYERS SET GOOD EXAMPLES BY BEING ARRESTED EVERY OTHER WEEK
*SCHOOL
BOARDS HAPPILY WELCOME OUT OF CONTROL STUDENTS TO STAY IN CLASS AND
TELL TEACHERS IT IS ALL THEIR FAULT IF ANYTHING HAPPENS
*POLICE MUST ASK PERMISSION OF CRIMINALS IF IT IS OKAY TO EVEN QUESTION THEM
*ALL PRODUCTS USED NOW BY AMERICANS ARE NOT MADE IN THE U.S.
*BANKS ARE TOO BIG TO FAIL BUT STUDENTS WHO MISS A LOAN PAYMENT ARE IMMEDIATELY PUNISHED FINANCIALLY FOR LIFE
*SIX COMPANIES CONTROL EVERY MOTION PICTURE STUDIO, TELEVISION NETWORK, CABLE TV NETWORK
*ONE COMPANY CONTROLS ALMOST EVERY RADIO STATION IN THE U.S.
*PHARMACEUTICAL
COMPANIES PUSH THEIR POISON KILLING, DESTROYING AND ZOMBIFYING MILLIONS
OF CITIZENS--BUT A NATURAL GOD-GIVEN HERB WHICH HAS BEEN PROVEN TO
RELIEVE ALL OF MANKIND'S PHYSICAL AND MENTAL ILLS IS SUPRESSED BY THOSE
COMPANIES WITH THE HELP OF THEIR PUPPET POLITICIANS AND MEDIA
*AMERICAN POLITICIANS WANT TO HELP EVERYBODY ELSE IN THE WORLD EXCEPT FOR AMERICANS
*AMERICAN VETERANS ARE DISCARDED AND THROWN AWAY AFTER THEY SERVE AS WAR FODDER
*CORPORATIONS
ROUTINELY ENGAGE IN HIGHLY ILLEGAL, UNETHICAL AND CRIMINAL ACTIVITY
WHICH THEY MUST PAY MILLIONS IN FINES FOR--YET THEY TELL YOUNG COLLEGE GRADUATES
THEY CAN'T BE HIRED BECAUSE THERE WAS A PICTURE OF THEM ATTENDING A
PARTY POSTED ON FACEBOOK
*REPUBLICANS
WANT TO THOROUGHLY DISMANTLE OBAMACARE--EVEN THOUGH IT WAS THE FIRST
EVER LEGISLATION WHICH GAVE PROTECTION TO MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WITH
PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS
*IT'S NOT ENOUGH THAT CORPORATIONS HAVE SENT MILLIONS OF AMERICAN JOBS OVERSEAS. NOW THEY ARE REPLACING THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN WORKERS WITH EMPLOYEES COMING HERE FROM INDIA--AND CLAIM THESE FOLKS HAVE "SPECIALTY SKILLS" WHICH AMERICANS CANNOT DO.
PLENTY MORE COMING
GEORGE MARTIN -- DEAD AT 90
Without George Martin -- there would have been no Beatles.
He was 36 at the time and was running a comedy label --Parlophone--for EMI in the UK.
He saw something unique in this band whom nobody else wanted to sign to a record label.
So he gave them a chance by placing them on the comedy label and the rest is history.
He produced their albums, continually introducing them to recording techniques, orchestration and different ways of doing things.
It was their constant music evolution that kept them ahead of everybody else, and he was part of it.

He was 36 at the time and was running a comedy label --Parlophone--for EMI in the UK.
He saw something unique in this band whom nobody else wanted to sign to a record label.

WHAT THE HELL??? A LEAP YEAR JOKE? FROM MAIA LAZAR
I JUST RECEIVED A PUZZLING EMAIL -- AND I CAN ONLY ASSUME THIS IS A SPECIAL LEAP YEAR DAY PRANK.
THIS IS WHAT I SAW STARING BACK AT ME WHEN I OPENED THE EMAIL UP:
I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT ONE OF THE FOLLOWING THINGS HAPPENED:
1. MAIA AND HER MILLENIAL FRIENDS WERE SITTING AROUND SMOKING POT, DECIDED TO LOOK AT MY LINKEDIN PAGE, AND ONE OF THEM REACHED OVER TO PUSH THE "INVITE" BUTTON AS A JOKE--TO THE ULTIMATE HORROR OF MAIA.
2. MAIA WAS HOME ALONE DRUNK, LOOKING AT MY PAGE, AND DIDN'T REALIZE THAT SHE PUSHED THE WRONG BUTTON.
3. MAIA WAS SLEEPWALKING, HAVING A NIGHTMARE THAT SHE WAS BACK IN MY AP ENGLISH CLASS, DECIDED SHE KNEW MUCH MORE THAN I DID, AND FIGURED THAT BY PUSHING THE BUTTON THAT I WOULD SUDDENLY DEMATERIALIZE.
IF YOU KNEW THE BACK STORY ON THIS...YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND WHY I AM SITTING HERE TOTALLY CONFUSED BY THIS EMAIL INVITATION.
YOU CAN READ ABOUT IT AT www.cathyseipp.com (her deranged mother's official non-official website)
I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT MAIA HAS FINALLY DEVELOPED A SENSE OF HUMOR--SOMETHING SHE HAD REMOVED IN A BYPASS OPERATION AT BIRTH--
OR MAYBE SHE JUST WANTED TO SEE HOW I WOULD REACT. WELL, YOU CERTAINLY GOT MY ATTENTION DEAR LITTLE MAIA.

The President of the United States is doing exactly what he is supposed to be doing when a Supreme Court Justice vacancy occurs
The President of the United States is doing exactly what he is supposed to be doing when a Supreme Court Justice vacancy occurs--prepare to nominate a new one.
And the Republicans are already stating that they will make all efforts to stop him from doing so.
They don't even try and hide their subversion of the Constitution anymore.
And the Republicans wonder why their own followers are insisting that a buffoonish non-politician be their candidate in November.
Enjoy Your Brief Moment Bernie
What a surprise.
Bernie Sanders wins the New Hampshire primary.
Keep your eyes on Tuesday, March 1
SUPER-TUESDAY.
Hillary will take 13 of 14 primaries with
the exception of Vermont.
Bernie should enjoy this brief moment
in the spotlight. Other than New Hampshire
and upcoming Vermont, possibly Oregon and possibly the state of Washington...the
Democratic establishment has already
nominated the newest Clinton.
The Democratic convention will only
make that clear.

CHALLENGER - 30 YEARS AGO TODAY
30 Years Ago Today, the entire nation was watching the takeoff of the Challenger when something went very, very wrong.
I hate to tell you this -- Americans were so shocked at the magnitude of this tragedy -- they dealt with it as only Americans do -- with sick humor:
Q:What does NASA stand for?
A: Need Another Seven Astronauts
The same way that when Robin Williams committed suicide -- the jokes went flying non-stop all week -- because Robin Williams was always there to make you laugh...that was his job...and Americans could not deal with the shock of his death details -- they turned to sick humor.
But President Ronald Reagan came on the air and gave one of the greatest speeches ever made.
It was so genuine, heartfelt and reached out to all Americans -- even specifically addressing the millions of children that were watching the live takeoff in classrooms all over the country.

Yes, some of you love him and some of you hate him.
But on that day, he was the President for all Americans and helped the country through this devastating event.
DONALD TRUMP SHOWS HE IS REALLY SERIOUS!
DONALD TRUMP CAN FINALLY BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY!
AND HE'S DECIDED TO MAKE HER HIS RUNNING MATE!
BACK IN 2008, WE WERE ALMOST JUST
ONE HEART ATTACK AWAY FROM HAVING THIS BRILLIANT
AND KNOWLEDGEABLE WOMAN AS PRESIDENT.
AND OBAMA HAD TO GO SCREW ALL THAT UP BY GETTING ELECTED!
SHE'S BACK AND AMERICANS ARE SO, SO LUCKY.
President Obama Makes An Incredible Statement About Vietnam
In President Obama's stirring final State of the Union Speech, he said something that will not be noticed by any of the media.
His decision to make reference to the ultimate disaster of U.S. policy in Vietnam should not be ignored.
These days, most people prefer to say nothing about Vietnam, wave an American flag and refuse to discuss it. Otherwise you are unpatriotic if you dare question the whole scenario.
It was the policies of Lyndon B. Johnson--Democrat
and Richard M. Nixon--Republican and their staffs that cost the lives of 60,000 Americans and millions of Vietnamese. It was not your country that made the decision. It was your idiotic family, friends, neighbors, relatives and other bureaucrats working in Washington D.C. that made some very bad policies and decisions.
Who is making most of your clothing these days?
Yes, it is Vietnam.
Do you even know where Vietnam is located?
Ask any 3rd grader why it might be difficult fighting a war
in this country in the early 1960's, and what would happen if
the U.S. had dropped an atomic bomb on the north part of the
country.
"We also can’t try to take over and rebuild every country that falls into crisis. That’s not leadership; that’s a recipe for quagmire, spilling American blood and treasure that ultimately weakens us. It’s the lesson of Vietnam, of Iraq – and we should have learned it by now."

David Bowie Takes The Red Parking Space
about this new thing I started called "online entertainment" that I was running on something mysterious called CompuServe and AOL.
As I approached their building on the outskirts of Century City, I was looking for a parking space. There was none available. But there was one red space sitting there. As I was debating "it will only take me 5 minutes to run in and out," a brand new corvette pulled up and decided that they would take the space. The car would indicate that they could afford an expensive ticket if the timing was bad.
The driver door opened and out came David Bowie.
There he was looking all David Bowie-ish and I was just delighted. He headed toward the record company door.
Really made my day.
These 4 Old Guys Were Pretty Smart
This is a beautiful stamp from Laos which commemorates the American Bi-Centennial.
Washington, Jefferson, Adams and Madison.
These 4 old guys were pretty smart.
Instead of creating a website, they created a country.
They decided to make a country where you have the freedom of any religion you want and you have the freedom not to have any religion. And governmental institutions cannot endorse or criticize any religion or lack of religion.
They decided to make a country where you have the freedom to express your opinion.
And governmental institutions cannot endorse or criticize your opinion.
It worked for 240 years. Up until 2016.
They would be shocked by what is going on in America today.
Hope this didn't offend anybody. Boo-Hoo.
You Right Wingers Are Being Just Too Critical
On January 21, 2017--
Hillary Clinton will be sworn in as the first woman President of the United States.
Look how sweet!
What could possibly happen by having these two little cuties in the White House?
