"We who are liberal...

 dragonflies in the desert?

much concern about balloons  in  the sky over the sacred skies of america...well maybe they were dropping germs on this country probably chicken germs so more chickens die and the price of eggs is higher than the price of pickled pigs lips and the country is thrown into a turmoil and huge crowds gather to protest the price of eggs and pickled pigs lips and anarchy reigns supreme in what was once a peaceful egg eating pig lip kissing nation...or not...anyhow i am more worried about agricultural sabotage than nuclear bombs or heathen hordes marching into this country from over the steppes or from the bowels of latin america...

remember this BLEVE...which stands for BOILING LIQUID EXPANDING VOLUME EXPLOSION...the recommended evacuation distance is 2 miles from the vessel which is burning...one mile at the minimum...

i have been reading in my thick book of biographies...it lists a lot of people whom i have never heard of but who rate an inclusion into this book...such as Thais...330BCE famous courtesan of Alexander the Great who (allegedly) induced Alexander to torch the city of Persepolis...and Aspasia...5th century BCE who was mistress to Pericles and a vivacious intellectual and held in high regard by Socrates (she didn't ask Pericles to torch anything...and i am not sure of the difference between a courtesan and a mistress)...and Ildeco who was the beautiful wife of Attila the Hun...and he died soon after his marriage  to her...

which makes me consider how i have changed with the testosterone killing chemicals injected into my body...whoa buddy! ...might be a good idea to make this drug available if not mandatory to a whole lot of people...i was watching a 6 part documentary about GOD with morgan freeman and in disk 2 episode 2 they discuss EVIL...or their conception of evil...and a neurologist is interviewed and he says that the brain is different in different people and maybe this difference is and indicator of a person who might do bad things...OK so i was wondering how much testosterone has influenced my thinking and i have concluded QUITE A LOT! and i highly recommend that more men get a shot in the arm of this drug and see for themselves how their thinking changes...i dont think testosterone makes a man evil but it certainly can dominate a persons thinking...and that makes me wonder what other chemicals might be available to alter ones thinking...because humans need to change the way they think...
