well i think the sacred union folks have gone way over the line by saying they do not want any automation which will make them get less money in their greedy pockets...they have no right to push americans into worse conditions because they refuse to unload ships...to hell with them...same thing the mythic ned lud was supposed to have done ....except he smashed looms with a hammer to stop them from making cheaper cloth than was being made by home weavers...lud lost too...
i was thinking about ms streep who used her celebrity status to bring light to the afghan women whose plight is little better than it was a thousand years ago...USA taxpayers spent nearly a trillion dollars in Afghanistan and this is what they have to show for it...barbarity, stupidity and shame. there are some women who were able to leave the country and went to Scotland to get educated above the 6th grade...oh yeah, the Chinese spent a trillion bucks and built roads harbors and other things useful for many countries to increase their commerce...and! china has 20,000 miles of high speed rail...but wait! the USA has decided to spend 3 billion bucks to build high speed rail between southern california and LAS FRIGGIN VEGAS....WHAT THE HELL!....who comes up with these priorities...the mob!
well the big blow in the southeast USA seems to have once again left the population a bit under prepared....i cannot figure out how a person can look into a camera and say it rained like hell and in the next breath say...we have no water...i used to set out a tarp and collect 3 gallons of water a day from the daily rains in eastern Florida...i see theses places where the whole area is littered with building materials...wood, roofing, plumbing etc...and they just wait for the bulldozer to come and push it into piles and load it onto trucks and haul it to a very expensive landfill...deconstruction is a real occupation in some communities and they have warehouses filled up with good building materials....it should be a criminal act to not recycle...i have spent a fair amount of time in cedar key Florida and was interested to hear the old woman who is the mayor say that they needed to think about where they should rebuild the destroyed buildings....like don't rebuild the grocery store at the bottom of the hill...duh
watched some good youtube last week..."Are we enslaved to one side of the brain? The sickness of modern man" academy of sciences (23 min" also "Your mind is much older than you think" Genetic memory and Carl Jung....this may shed some light on the thinking of the middle eastern combatants....
some good music i encountered was Kris Kristopherson explaining how he came to write "Why me Lord" and singing the song with willie nelson et al...also i came across "The Tubes" live in san Fransisco 1983 (28 min) talk about a wardrobe malfunction! i also really like Tom T Hall's song "I miss a lot of trains" Iris dement also does a good job of covering the song so a womans view can also be presented... and his seldom heard song "America the ugly"...he has a few obscure songs like that...
i was wondering about my attraction to the female athletes thinking perhaps it is just soft porn as it was presented on slo mo you tube sites...but once when A. Schopenhauer was sick in bed he had a male attendant and he felt an attraction to him and questioned whether he might be a latent homosexual...but being Schopenhauer he put his considerable brain power on this thought and determined that it was the youth and vitality that he found attractive in his male attendant and i think the youth and vitality of these female athletes is inspiring...i was young and very physically fit for much of my life so i cannot regret that my present less than optimal physical state...should have inhaled less toxins for sure...
