I played this and sang along! This is a great song about friendship! <3 "Ben, most people would turn you away I don't listen to a word they say. They don't see you as I do I wish they would try to."

donavan believe me, things like the above clip have popped into my mind lately...I like it here, where I am not tangled up in the morass of info and feelings that I am working at processing. I mostly was thinking about all the splinter groups of terrorists and juntas that keep appearing and I can't keep track of them. I know I'm old, but as with what seems a preponderance of serial killers/sociopaths, the proportion of the entire population may be the same as it ever was. Thank you!

Deleted portion of a post that was turning into a rant and detracting from my original premise...
[Tangental diatribe - Yes a leader has the right to not be harassed by conservative/liberal biased media (depending on who is in office) and get back to dealing with crybaby Senators who are hellbent on changing party affiliations to ensure they are reelected. A leader standing firm on policy regarding faux democracies' threatening body language (I think lining up troops at the border of Ukraine is just that-political body language) who give democracy a bad name.] My opinion, and I think worth saving.

Three times yesterday I had to delete posts from either Song Association or And the Last Shall be First, as others kept posting just before I could. My timing may have been messed up by the time change the night before.

My timing may have been messed up by the time change the night before. That freaking time change has had me messed up all week. Luckily, this time I just went stoopid and slightly impatient with myself for that as opposed to my regular angry and irked due to drivers competing for the space my vehicle and I occupied.

["Interweb = Increased opportunities to communicate what you think you are saying to others who think you are saying something other than that."]
When I typed it, it made perfect sense. Rereading it, not so much, but it proved my point 100%.
Huh.

It's a bit like proofreading an email before you send it. You read it through ten times then send it. Go to sent items, read it again and it's a shit-show. How does that happen?

"Grammar are optional here."
This was my response to Mare in And the Last Shall Be First, but Don made a post before I could. I'm getting slow in my old age.

I don't stop reading after the first post, @intro ...quote me or tag me, I'll find it eventually. Shoot, I am still reading old parts of current threads and liking or LOLing things from years past. It is my attempt to hit refresh on my brain.

Roll or Rant, this didn't help the thread get anywhere.
...We had this conversation...the political world with its lobbyists, liars, cheaters, sneaks and bullies is not a nice sandbox to play in. I wouldn't do it, you wouldn't do it...anyone with even a teeny-tiny bit of skeleton in their closet and a contempt for what it takes to succeed in politics would have none of it. It is nasty business with the crap that gets dragged out into the press, name calling and pettiness that goes on while you are trying to get the danged job done.
We can't fix it.
Goodness knows, they can't fix it.
The candidates with love and kindness in their hearts and a good sound background in economics and world history in their brains are like deer in the headlights.
Were we were better off when we thought we screwed up because it wouldn't stop raining and the Gods were furious so we had to sacrifice something/someone? It doesn't seem that much different, now.
Have our modern conveniences made the planet a better place? Oh, hells no.
Death, pestilence, plague? Still got that. Hopelessness? Yep, that is still around, too.
Am I over-reacting? No. We fucked this place up to the max, I am sure, no way did we help it.
So why belabor the point?
And why is this in The Religion Thread?
Is government an Organized Religion? It is getting to be one, IMHO.
Remember, the more you put a leader up on a cross, the more you throw stones at their glass house...the more you turn them into Martyred Saints and etch their glory into the minds of the faithful. Sheesh.

And why is this in The Religion Thread? Because of the black-robed fuckups with their faux-Christianity and lifetime appointments.

Sheesh. Don't worry, Mayor Mare--we're not going to kill you. Although you might be careful around Don Wilkes Booth...

I thought donavan was making a point about President Repeat. It doesn't matter. We are doomed to repeat the history that the Martyrs didn't read.
