"You will hear it said..."

                                                               giant raven loves wieners 
most ravens are rather shy about getting too close but this one began landing on the truck and being very loud by banging things around...almost as bad as the dueling hummingbirds....

as is customary i had pie for my birthday...actually ate 2 large pies in 4 days..apple and cherry
marked down to $1.56...

been hearing about "THE MINISTRY FOR THE PREVENTION OF VICE AND PROMOTION OF VIRTUE" which has banned beauty salons in Afghanistan...that is the death of their existence...beauty salons are a couple of thousand years old at least the women are surely going to retaliate against the Taliban ignorance...the Nazis lost, the fascist lost and the Taliban will loose also...so kai returned from china and says that a cup of starbucks coffee is 5 bucks there...AND the Chinese sponsored hackers got into important U.S. stuff...lets face it the government there does not intend to play nice with this country...i say, as does Kai...the consumers are running the show...ease up on buying Chinese stuff...
heard about energy drinks and minors on the radio...there is a condition called "caffeine psychosis"...i self diagnosed myself...had it bad...folks should know that too much caffeine will warp your mind...also heard about no more "affirmative action" or college admissions based on "race"...i think people of colored can certainly compete in the brains department if they can get a decent start by not  living in abject poverty...RAISE MINIMIM WAGE!  HEY JOE...unions are all well and good but minimum wage people are being worked every day in this country...$7.25 an hour...slavery at best...picked up a DVD called "Straight out of Compton"...i drove through there once...didn't stop...the flick is a documentary of sorts which tells the tale of how rap/hip hop came into being...what with the violence and drugs and police brutality etc...so Hugh Edwards a big shot BBC presenter was busted after pay 35 thousand pounds to teenager for sexy pictures...now poor Hugh is in a hospital with bad brains...that's a lot of dough...he should have just gone on the internet porn sites...much cheaper...also a custodian in an Italian school was not busted after groping a kid "for less that 10 seconds"...we had the same rule in the restaurants if food falls on the floor and you can pick it up in less than 10 seconds and put it back on the plate it is OK....maybe it was 5 seconds...

" You will hear it said, very gravely, Why was not the half-guinea, thus spent in luxury, given to the poor? To how many might it have afforded a good meal. Alas! has it not gone to the industrious poor? You are much surer that you are doing good when you pay money to those who work, as the recompense of their labor, than when you give money merely in charity." Samuel Johnson
