To:Rick Perry and Staff:

     I received this as an email, and I wanted you to see it.  It is signed " The People of TEXAS".

I would like assistance in finding out if any of this is true, and who would be portraying your state in this way. It has become an a matter of my patriotic duty to find out why anyone would want to break up the USA for any reason.

 

    If this is true I would like you to come forward and say it is so, otherwise, this kind of public political threats should be squashed and put to rest. Everyone supports the commander in chief, and when and if we are in a need for national security, I would never want my children to think that your state would not answer the call of duty.   

 

Sincerely,

This is for those of you with ties to Texas!

              
In case things get a little tough during the next few months, Texans have a plan...
       
        
        Maybe you don't know it, but Texas is the only state with a legal right to secede from the Union . (Reference the Texas-American Annexation Treaty of 1848.)
       
        We Texans love y'all Americans, but we'll probably have to take action since Barack Obama won the election and is now the President of the U.S.A.   We'll miss y'all though.
              
       
           Here is what can happen:

       
        1. Barack Hussein Obama, after becoming the President of the United States , begins to try and create a socialist country, and then Texas   announces that it is going to secede from the Union .
       
       
        2.  George W. Bush becomes the President of the Republic of Texas . You might not think that he talks too pretty, but we haven't had another terrorist attack and the economy was fine until the effects of the Democrats lowering the qualifications for home loans came to roost.

So what does TEXAS have to do to survive as a Republic?


        1. NASA Space Control is located just south of Houston , Texas , so we will control
the space industry.
       

        2. We already refine over 85% of the gasoline in the United States.
       

        3. Defense Industry ~ we have over 65% of it.  The term "Don't mess with Texas ," will take on a whole new meaning.
       

        4. Oil - we can supply all the oil that the Republic of Texas will need for the next 300 years.  What will the other states do?  Gee, we don't know, but you can ask
Obama.
       

        5. Natural Gas - again, we have all we need and it's too bad about those Northern States.  John Kerry and Al Gore will just have to figure out a way to keep them
warm....
       

        6. Computer Industry - we lead the nation in producing computer chips and communications equipment - small companies like Texas Instruments, Dell Computer,
EDS, Raytheon, National Semiconductor, Motorola, Intel, AMD, Atmel, Applied
Materials, Ball Misconduct, Dallas Semiconductor, Nortel, Alcatel, etc.

        The list goes on.
             
        7. Medical Care - We have the research centers for cancer research, the best burn centers and the top trauma units in the world, as well  as other large health centers. The Houston Medical Center alone employees over 65,000 people.
       
        8. We have enough colleges to keep educating and making smarter citizens: University of Texas , Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Texas Christian, Rice, SMU, University of Dallas , University of Houston , Baylor, UNT ( University of North Texas ), Texas Women's University, etc. Ivy grows better in the South anyway.

        9. We have an intelligent and energetic work force and it isn't restricted by a bunch of unions.  Here in Texas , we are a  "Right to Work" State and, therefore,
it's every man and woman for themselves. We just go out and get the job done. And if we don't like the way one company operates, we get a job somewhere else.
       
        10.  We have essential control of the paper, plastics, and insurance industries, etc.
       
         11. In case of a foreign invasion, we have the Texas National Guard, the Texas Air National Guard, and several military bases.   We don't have an Army, but since
everybody down here has at least six rifles and a pile of ammo, we can raise an Army in 24  hours if we need one.

 
        If the situation really gets bad, we can always call the Department  of Public Safety and ask them to send over the Texas Rangers.
       

        12. We are totally self-sufficient in beef, poultry, hogs, and several types of grain, fruit, and vegetables; and let's not forget seafood from the Gulf.  Also, everybody
down here knows how to cook them so that they taste good. We don't need any food.
       

        13. Three of the ten largest cities in the United States and twenty-three of the 100 largest cities in the United States are located in Texas .  And Texas also has more land than California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland, Rhode Island, and Vermont combined.
       
        14. Trade: Three of the ten largest port s in the United States are located in Texas
       
        15. We also manufacture cars and trucks down here. 
       
        This just names a few of the items that will keep the Republic of Texas in good shape. There isn't a thing out there that we need and don't have.  Now to the rest of you folks in the United States under President Obama:
       
        1. Since you won't have the refineries to get gas for your cars, only President Obama will be able to drive around in his big 9 mpg SUV. The rest of the people  of the United States will have to walk or ride bikes.

          
        2. You won't have any TV as the Space Center in Houston will cut off satellite communications.
       
        3. You won't have any natural gas to heat your homes, but since Mr. Obama has predicted global warming, you will not need the gas as long as you survive the 2000 years it will take to get enough heat from Global Warming.    
       
        In other words, the rest of y'all in the USA are screwed!
              
Signed,
       
        The People of Texas
       
        P.S. This is not a threatening letter - just a note to give you something to think about!   Sleep well tonight 'cause "The Eyes of Texas are on YOU"!!

coffee coffee coffee the most perfect drug...

How many times have you done the same thing day after day after day, and just not wanted to get up and do it all again, but then you drank the magic potion, of coffee and decided that it was all worth it?  Can you hear my music, its either love potion number nine... or its Veronica by Elvis Costello, or its just the Coffee House channel on Serius Sat Radio...   I know some of you, don't drink coffee, and that is great, you can drink something else, tea, water those things are great too, and very similar to coffee, except, well for the color and the smell and the feeling of caffeine rushing through your veins and then to your brain giving you the feeling that you could probably bike the empire state building!  Now you know I have had my coffee today, because I can talk on any good day, but give me a cup of coffee and I am motivational speaker!  I am a Happy CAMPER, I am halarious-- and I can clean house all day, and write and work and do art, and sell you stuff-- oh how the day is good--, almost as good as carrot juice, but that is another story-- today I have to blog about my friend, and love-- COFFEE, that I dont even mind -- if other people love it, its the love we share.....     To be sure-- I am a coffee snob, I admit it, I don't just fiend for coffee and settle for instant Sanka with the freeze dried milk and sweeteners...not for me!  I don't even like--the majority of coffee houses, including the successful Starbucks.  I grew up in Berkeley, and we have PEETS coffee!  Peet taught the Starbucks guy, what coffee was, and how to do it! but he's strayed since.  When I moved from Berkeley to Marin, it was like coffee heaven, you might not think that three or four different types of coffee houses could exist ron the same street, but they do.  Loyal customers will continue to shop where they like the best its about--atmosphere and taste. I remember a great place in Mill Valley and in San Anselmo, called the Coffee Roaster's, it was a beautifully build store, with JUST COFFEE BEANS, no food what so ever! NONE!  They just sold every kind of bean imaginable--for prices that reflected the quality and the time it took to get it there. Carbon footprints were no object!  You just bought a cup of coffee or beans thats it, if you were hungry-- go somewhere else!  BUT, They had this quaint outside patio hidden just out back , with chairs and tables and it looked like a cobble stone road anywhere in paradise, and people sat silently and drank coffee and literally did not have any outside disruptions.  It was so relaxing, no loud music, no distracting displays, no gaudy wall murals depicting how great they were, just ivy and trees.  Nothing was more intriguing to me than this, how does this work, a quiet coffee house....   You cant find that coffee here in Redding, your lucky to have good coffee at all!  I search for it on days like today, because, well, I get so tired of the same old dishes, laundry and dirt, I cant do it one more day! without a little help from my friend-- coffee.   Thankfully, I am a Lutheran, and unabashed coffee lover and people lover too!  You might know that Lutheran World Relief, was the funding to create awareness of coffee growing and selling, and between--pubic awareness, and human rights advocates-- they-made it a crime to use children as young as six- as coffee pickers, or  "slave children" as farm workers.  Thank to this group of concerned people, awareness has almost stopped a world market, of exploiting children for pennies a day on big bucks coffee.  Out of this came, "FAIR TRADE COFFEE" and it means that, people will be paid a fair wage, work a fair amount of hours, and not one underage child will be used.  In many places such as Columbia, children are the only hope of drug addicted parents, and the beans are not just for-- coffee drinks, they are breakfast lunch and dinner.  Literally roasted on a BBQ daily, and then ground and eaten, from stolen the beans pocketed by the farm-workers on their shift.  They have no food, they eat coffee beans.  Not unlike the cocaine leaves they chew...AHEM, yea!  This is a real drug folks, and it begins to dawn on you when you don't have it.  Can you imagine if they outlawed it?  There would be no revolution, we'd all be home with a headache, and too dull to get up!  Entire companies would go out of business, and I am guessing the New York alone would have to make a world time change to get up after California....dont ask..   That's enough ruin any coffee buzz...which makes me worry?  Is coffee such a powerful drug that one day, science will outlaw it?  Its a commodity, traded on the open market, the biggest in the world, and its multi- million dollar pull makes it fodder for drug lords all over the place.  Will it eventually go onto the list of the bad drugs because of the people it supports?  Not likely as long as the good American business people keep their hands in every ones pockets,...basically, we help them make this product and we have some input in the way they grow the most popular beans,  Shade grown, means less water, organic means no pesticides, fair trade, these are terms you must agree too, or our little brown potion will be outlaw juice.   LOVE potion number 1 : COFFEE! KEEP IT LEGAL, stay informed,  SOON I am opening my own  coffee house, please come on in and enjoy!  Please search and find your favorite coffee and enjoy the day!   Yes I am going to open my own coffee house, with real good coffee!~  the PEETS way, and with a lot of perky extras!!   Donations excepted, stock on sale today-- send payment to: Pandawishes, c/o Liz  Masloff  2284 Saturn Skyway Redding CA 96002     LOVE YOU   LIZ         Thank You From Panda Publishing http://artislifeupgraded.blogspot.com/

Monday school starting blues

I really thought I was going to be tough today, I knew I could be just fine watching those kids run off to their futures,.. leaving me behind.    It was a day like so many others, get up early, make coffee toast and eggs, talk and make lunches, but today, we are ripe with anticipation for a new season of learning.  We are ready to burst with the thought of being back on the path of learning, and I was fine all along, not once did I worry, enough socks, enough folders, paper, pencils, not once did I nag, let me fix your hair,... not this time, no input is needed here.  I got out the camera, and I tried to save the moments, that I know are just speeding by, but I get hands, and hair and the blur of the fast moving teenager.    Yesterday, I was enjoying buying lunches for kids, and I said to a stranger who was near by, "Can I buy a lunch-able for a High School kid?"  He laughed and said, "You have High School kids, poor thing, I was just enjoying the fact I did not have to buy any school clothes! "  I never did find out his opinion of the Lunch-ables, but they give that - I love you but not enough to dote upon you with a home-made lunch , like I am such a busy mom, I just don't have time.. Lunch-ables aren't "hot-pockets" but they are probably a close cousin!  Best part about Lunch-ables, they come in that-- super strong sealed package, inside a cardboard--packing box, that even a teen-ager with a skateboard could not destroy!   ..I really do enjoy the lunch thing, its like a treasure hunt, you search for the perfect food to put into a back pack that may or may not ever make it to your child's mouth,.. and then if they do open it-, it could be as good as gold if you are starving or-- as dull as sand, if its  smashed into oblivion.  Grapes are still growing in abundance in our back yard, big sweet, Thompson seedless grapes, juicy and delightful for a hot day.  I picked about 100$ worth yesterday, was happy to have those for lunches today, if all else fails you know you can feel full with a few grapes.   But the packed lunch is like the care package for the homeless, it signifies the separation from the source.  And no matter how much we send them off with great thoughts, and great anticipation's, and affirmations, nothing prepares you for the faces of kids on the first day.  They have a universal look of fear, like what am I buying into?  Who ever said that mass learning was comfortable, and for the faces of the little kids, that I see outside my front door, its the usual face of ," Mom, I am not so sure, about this,...stay with me!"  Those little ones, that say stay with me, walk with me, hold my hand, and then they go to, don't kiss me, drop me off, and then finally its-- I love ya -- bye!  And you are sure, you are not any older, you can't be that much older, but they seem so much older now.    Looking at our little kids, we dressed them up, and we picked out back packs and we let them enjoy the fun, but as they get to teens, they do all the picking out and the fixing of the hair, and finally they come out of their rooms looking someone elses child!  You think =0 what is that, and how did you get your hair to do that?  I know I did not buy you that, and they say," Yea isn't this great my friend gave it to me"  or better yet, they take some piece of clothing from you -- and barely like it, and the next time you see it, its cut up into a totally different outfit, pinned and sewed and placed to have some meaning it never intended!  You never would thought of that... How do these teens get so creative with their clothes and hair, I did not think there was more ways to frustrate parents.   Ah, but the beauty of the day shines through too. And we can be proud to see our youth experiencing the timeless rights of passage like "Senior classes" and  incoming new Freshman. Without a doubt the American kids have the first day of school down to a religious experience full of of faith and hope, universally dressed  in Levi's Blue jeans, and t-shirts with cool logos, and the best pair of sneakers you can afford.  That one consistent thread is comforting, knowing we can always count on something to stay the same--brings us back to recognizing the pattern of circles of the seasons,  that consistent path we walk, the same paths we walked , our children walked and our grandchildren will walk.  They might have bright blue hair, and some other kind of unnatural diversion, but inside there are the same kids we were.  Happy to be on their way--   Good day all!   Godspeed!       Thank You From Panda Publishing http://artislifeupgraded.blogspot.com/

Letters

I have to pay the rent....   We have to pay the bills...   We have to pay attention..   We pay the piper...   Nothing in life is guarunteed but death and taxes...   Enjoy it now, Pay later...   Payments....   Payment plans....   paid off...   pay up, pay down, pay out, pay back, pay as you go, pay for..       Word History: Given the unpeaceful feelings one often has in paying bills or income taxes, it is difficult to believe that the word pay ultimately derives from the Latin word pāx, "peace." However, it is not the peace of the one who pays that is involved in this development of meaning. From pāx, meaning "peace" and also "a settlement of hostilities," was derived the word pācāre, "to impose a settlement on peoples or territories." In Late Latin pācāre was extended in sense to mean "to appease." The Old French word paiier that developed from Latin pācāre came to have the specific application "to pacify or satisfy a creditor," a sense that came into Middle English along with the word paien (first recorded around the beginning of the 13th century), the ancestor of our word pay.   One word so many meanings and forms, and idioms.  We ourselves find our own translation for our own use of words, each day I will see that change as our world changes.   I will use the words I have for better than a pacifier, I hope that we know, as Christ said--   God's Word sets us free; it does not bind us to traditions and meaningless rhetoric; it liberates us into joy and contentment; it brings out our best and gives us purpose and real, authentic meaning. The application of this is in how we control what we say and do, as we are called to do. Our words reflect what is in our heart as do our actions. Serving the needy is our character and maturity in action.   Vs. 26-27: These are the principle verses for us as sincere, authentic Christians who are responsible to do something with our Christian life. We are not called to just be pretty; rather, we are called to get dirty! This is implied in all that we do and believe (Prov. 19:17).   ·        Does not bridle his tongue. God calls us to control our words (Psalm 141:3; Prov. 10:19; 16:24; Matt. 5:9; 12:34; Eph. 4:29)! We are not to divorce our tongue from our mind and heart!               teach with your payment in the good words to others..                   Thank You From Panda Publishing http://artislifeupgraded.blogspot.com/

BATMAN wanted...

With all that this country is doing now, a BATMAN, would sure be welcome, until then, does "today's ROCK music" still have the voice of revolution and the power to create another "Woodstock", or is it just a way to to separate the generations. Now is the time, for an awakening, Music is the language we all understand.

Or is it? I know I am feeling old when, I start to hear a band my kids like, and I think, that's just not music. Or oh dear, what is this world coming too... I might as well get out my knitting!

I was in a club, looking for Ashley, and it really dawned on me, I am old to these people! And worse, I do not get this music. I was sitting there, and when I finally talked to a couple of the kids, I joked about telling them the last musicians, I had met. They did look at me like, okay lady...I dont even want to try to --be cool...

When I listen to the radio , I do get tired of some of the same old stuff, and I love to hear music that is in Movies, the soundtrack people are amazing! My mother knows all the good music, shes always telling me to listen to this artist, or that song, shes great! I love that, and I can always trust my Jazz, or my classical. But, why do we have to get old? Some people seem to never grow up, mature and get dull, ever notice they don't have any kids either...people say kids keep you young, I doubt that!

I love my family, and don't get me wrong, I would always want to be with them, but we all have a different choice for music, especially ASH and NOL, even though they humor me with some of the "older" songs they know I like. Music gets me through some tough times and I often need the uplift of a good acoustic melody-- for healing. Life as a musician must be difficult, so much to take in, I wonder of congress, or politicians think the same way.

Inside all of us, is our song, and we all need to dance to our own music, some of us dance slow and some of us dance-- in a square, and some of us boogie-- if we cant find ways to "get together and feel alright", there is surely a revolution on the horizon, and it wont be, the have and have nots, it will be the old ways against the young change--- I sure hear it every day in the people I meet-- and the elderly are the most outraged!

I just have one song, and I will put it on the link at the top==="alice's restaurant..." if your too young to know it, take a minute to listen, if your old enough to know it and have to say something unkind...its not too late to change your mind....

BATMAN: wanted to save the music, and the people.....

update

Ashley update:

   My Opinion:myspace does not know much about service or children's protection.

 

Its been 8 Days, Ashley has logged in everyday, and yet they have yet to do one thing to tell anyone where she is.  Today, when I asked them for the IP address they refused to give it to me and said the police had to give it to me, the supervisor, claimed the police could have asked for it at any time, and no supena was needed; who lying the police or myspace?

 

 

 

---

warning this is true and shocking

---

 

I have a story that I never wanted to share--but I know the police will really enjoy this:

 

In 1993 I worked at the Sonoma Mission Inn and Spa, a beautiful place nestled in the hills , between Kenwood and Sonoma, I loved it. I met and talked to and Harrison Ford on the very first day of work.  The second day, I did wine event for the Knights of the Vine the oldest and largest wine makers in the USA, and the third was the first of many Sonoma Wine Auctions, were I assisted in  sales of more than a million dollars  of goods-for children's charity.

 

A stellar job, with the rich and lovely.  In the background for this amazing place, to keep up with all the demands was more that 3 head chefs, just in this one Banquet Dept.But there are three restaurants all together, dozen of trained chefs, but one woman-- one woman head chef.   I wont use her name, because she would not want me to, I will call her Chef Jane, for this story. 

 

See Chef Jane lived just outside Kenwood, the property she owned was large and bordered on the towns of Petaluma and Kenwood.  It's a very wealthy community, and well known for its tourists and wine and schools and food, and soon it would be know for the missing child Polly Klaas. 

 

I would drive down the road past her property to go home each night, and pass the evening shadows, but one night i felt something aweful in my heart, as I do when I just know something is not right. I felt some dark shadow pass through me, call it intuition, but this was sadness... I went home and prayed, and in the morning it was on the news,  young girl missing from the window of her house....

 

What did anyone do?  What would you do?  Your child is missing...

 

People looked for many many days...but she did not show up..Chef Jane became more and more upset, she knew what she asked the Police to do , but no one listened to her.  After a month passed, Chef Jane-- said, now I have to go and look for myself... and it turned out as she worried it would, she was devasted--she had to testify, she had to find this herself?...That was when the truth came out.....

 

You see-

Chef Jane, called the police the night the missing girl was reported, and reported a unwanted car and a man on her prop.  You know what the police told her, basically that-- she was in an odd area and they weren't sure what police station should answer....She said there is a strange man and a girl on my land!! Please...then they said-- " YOU crazy woman, if you are so afraid take your GUN and look yourself...."

 

I believe her.

 

Polly Klaas died because no one would listen to Chef Jane and worse the information was so lost--that when the police came accross the car and the guy, they let him go!  Polly was just a few feet from the car and the police did not even know. 

 

THIS CHANGED EVERYTHING WHEN CHEF JANE SUED THE POLICE....AND PETALUMA was never the same.  Do people make mistakes, yes?  Do people have the right to expect the police to care? yes-- and could this have ended better--

 

definitely!

 

What did we learn? The events that happened changed the lives of every single person, that knew her, loved her, and even heard of her.  Chef Jane could not live in her house ever again, she was murdered that night too. 

 

From this debacle of Polly, her father fought hard to make LAWS on sharing information about missing teens, and it is to protect the child.  Police no longer hold onto missing teen reports in one city, they must share and they must tell all neighboring cities, and from that day forward, we realized, that people do break in houses, and take innocent girls right out of their beds.  It made us all, start thinking of crime in a whole new way.

 

Polly never did anything to deserve it, she was a perfect child, and more than beautiful and sweet she was young.  Her life is one that will never be forgotten, but as you might like to know, that MYSPACE knows nothing about it. They dont share information about missing children, they not only dont care to help the parents they enable any child to find other teens and runaway. My experience with my missing child, is that they make up stories, and even contradict what they say to the police.  They make a choice they can be heros, but they silenced me, but not talking to me.  I have effectively no parental control over my child on myspace as soon as I reported my child missing, even though they told me they would help me if I did.

 

I can report my credit card stolen and have the people who use it arrested, and put in jail, but I cant ask MYSPACE to help me find my missing child who uses myspace everyday...

 

Its a law that you cannot abuse or exploit children, but children can post naked photos of themselves, contact adults and sell their soul online--and MYSPACE doesnt stop this.

 

Frontline television is more effective in catching child molesters on myspace than the Police.

 

My next door neighbor turned out to be a molester-- and we live across the street from a elementary school.

 

What do we need to know before we stand up and pull the plug on the demise of the mind --any-ones mind, this web space is not free speech, this is not me trying to be right wing self-righteous, this is me-- one person-- just like Chef Jane, will you call me crazy and wait for death?  I sure hope not.

Everyday log in addcitions?~ ENOUGH ALL READY!

STOP THE LIES! Warning--- MYSPACE LIES! This is my belief, that there are things that we don't allow, and that line is crossed when the rights of adults are squashed.


Is this really happening in the USA, is there an open web site that is not responsible for anything it posts? Is it possible in this great country that children are allowed to lie about their ages, just to advertise the daily drama? Or make their life into daily drama? Can they really privately advertise the daily problems true or not, to anyone who they feel, and lock out the Adults in their life who take care of them?

YES it is true, and if your Teen is doing it, the truth is, there is not one individual that can protect you from your name being libeled printed and there is often no way to even know that it is being done!

I have recently learned that if your Teen is using, MYSPACE for sex, drugs, or runaway schemes you cannot be allowed to see the information that would lead you to the people involved. According to our RPD, not once has this city allowed anyone to revoke a password to be able to help find missing children, except for one TIME where the teen claimed to be KIDNAPPED. NOT FOR ANY OTHER REASON! IN ANY CASE!

But everyday, teens are logging in and they are sending messages and using this free site for "entertainment" while the law enforcement, runs in circles to (obviously ~ not effectively) find missing and exploited children. YOU might think they would want to find them, and you might think that there would be a good reason to do it, but according to our RPD, its never a real EMERGENCY>>>

WHEN IS A RUNAWAY NOT AN EMERGENCY?
Does death of a runaway qualify?
Because who's to blame when the teen dies?

Children can cause all sorts of pain to the parents by threats to run away. It is very common now for parents to say that, there is no way to discipline children, not without hearing that they children have been conditioned to think that their freedom is being impaired. What freedom do parents have if they have children? We gave up our freedom when we had the baby, and then the child learns to wield the weapon of the law at the parents, this really is the sign of the times.

The plague of unethical times has come to fruition, and you too are sucked into it, I too have a myspace, but I thought it made me -- more informed...it might as well have made me a parental psychopath, for caring enough to subject myself search for my child withing the pages of crude and lascivious things that kids easily say and do. There is a place where you can act like a slut, lie like the devil, claim to do your best to impede others future by buying into their Phony Persona, and feed your delusional teen, and the majority of kids--- think that's cool.

UNLESS SOMEONE LIKE YOU, CARES A WHOLE LOT, THINGS WONT CHANGE, THEY WILL NOT. Theodore Geisel ( Dr. Suess)

Here's to all the broken hearted parents who's kids found a way to live out in the big world; be brave and remember, its not what you say, its what you do. The dog barks, he cannot do much else, we do more than bark, we make the laws, and the laws are ours.

What person has not seen the great fable of Pinocchio? This amazing and beautiful movie created by the genius of Walt Disney, clearly shows an image of how we are taken off the path of our lives and easily drawn to do the crimes for others, due to our need for money and the lure of being accepted into the "ADULT WORLD". Over and over in the movie it becomes apparent that the world is full of phony people, and that lives are changed forever when they do not stay on the right road.

ONCE YOU GO DOWN THE PATH OF THE DARK SIDE, FOREVER DOES IT CHANGE YOUR DESTINY. Yoda, explaining Darth Vader to Luke , from "The Empires Strikes Back"

I was published in the Barnes and Noble Executive Training manual for writing what was an effective essay on the story of " Little Red Riding Hood", the ancient fable of how a girl in her prime is taken off her path by the wolves and eaten alive. This story has been done in every format, from movies to cartoon, to plays. The Wolf in darker times, came with a full MALE anatomy, and the girls red robe, represented her feminine cycle. Her ability to create life, and her mother and her grandmother being the circle of the right to life. Her responsibility to this. Thanks to an encounter, with a good BN customer that, told me about it, I was astounded at my new gift of knowledge. I was even more amazed that not 30 minutes later, that night I would be referring to the priceless information for another mother, who was concerned about her daughter's child. It was a revelation, and one that impressed the most well read scholars. I too knew it would forever remain with me; HERE I am , fighting like red riding hood, to kill the wolves, its going to take more than an AXE to get this company, for they have made there minions, and it wont be MYSPACE that will revolt, it will be the addicts. Once again I ask you, are children in charge? Can't we ever say no to them?

I don't believe that the rights of those who are working hard to take care ,protect and educate children should be able to be ruined by the hands of the predatory minds, created by and with the computer, feeding the dark imaginings of the teen mind. This is a recipe for more than anyone can control. This is where FACE BOOK is better, you can see the information, move forward, and people judge you and correct you and possibly hold you accountable. But if we allow MYSPACE to break the rules, many will follow.

MYSPACE should be reduced to WHAT IT DOES BEST, Music only, and PROFESSIONAL~ Entertainment,
;Rights are not just for children, we adults worked hard for centuries to make this world free -- but not to be tossed into the fire by children who cause undue stress on parents, who are trying to have some kind of wholesome discipline, or punish this dangerous~ ONLINE behavior.

This is my belief, that there are things that we don't allow, and that line is crossed when the rights of adults or squashed.

I say enough! NOT one more day, of this! FIGHT TO END~this war on children, give Adults the right to see and have complete access to anything their children do on MYSPACE or shut them down. HOLD MYSPACE accountable to the same crimes that would put a NEWSPAPER WRITER IN JAIL, OR A THREATENING PERSON IN PRISON. Free speech or slander, right to expose yourself and sell false images or just plain LIBEL? we know better and its time we said ENOUGH!!

Don't wait until you experience what we are-- write the congressman or woman and say-- ENOUGH OF MYSPACE LIES

we always have a choice

We always have a choice...Does that ring a bell or what! No one can say they haven't heard that, no one-  and yet it is so easy to see that many of our choices are being made for us.

Our species needs, and deserves, a citizenry with minds wide awake and a basic understanding of how the world works.
Carl Sagan

I will enjoy using the television example, because this is the most common choice that I think, we let get away from us.  We take our tiny amount of free time, and push a button, then in some way or another, just let it talk and talk and talk, we cant talk back, and most of it- has commercials that we turn off, and then we wait and wait, for another show to come on and  then what fall asleep?  Those of you that have tivo, and just watch what you program, ok your getting closer, and  I am sure, now almost everyone knows how to program the DVR, but what choices do we have really?  I mean, canned TV, do we know what we are missing?  I choose not to pay for sat, or cable, and when I visit family I often find myself, just checking all the channels to see what am I missing...AH nothing!

 

I cant find anything -I cant get from Netflix, when I want it, I don't have to --program, or wait or save, its just there.  About every show there is on the net for free, what you cant get on-line-- you can order from Netflix.  My windows Vista has a built in program, called Windows Media Center, that has free tv! so much--to choose from! when I go to see the news, I can browse it like an on-line news paper. I can read the headlines, get the images, and then after a few minutes - I am done.  Really, its not that we are convinced that we don't have the choices, I am convinced that we have so many choices that now we like them being made for us. Isn't that true, people who just complain about things and don't care to fix them....lol, well sadly its easier to let ourselves think, well we can't do anything about, the economy the government, or the healthcare, because well---unless your an elected official, your really not in charge, and no one really cares--about my opinion.  News shows can debate and talk and broadcast and educate, the facts, and radio can make us disurbingly aware of the problems, we know that we get upset, but does it really change anything to just --talk about it?  My Father says, vote with your feet, and as difficult as this is, it is a very effective way of not only choosing but ultimately, if we all made the effort could be astoundingly effective.  Not a protest, not a stomp  your feet, throw out your tea, or sign a web form, I am saying, stop funding things that dont make sense! And be the change you want to see!  Don't expect others to stop, just make the wave by being the effective doer! you can choose to be the bumper sticker and talk or you can bump! and take a few on the chin for the team.

 

So many comments, like hows that Obama thing working out, or we should all stop this country from going down hill, I have to say, if you actually think that one man can put it down the tubes, then you really don't understand American Choices.  As long as we are on the subject of the men who do things to this country who are supposed to be in charge, we can all point fingers backwards, and that not going to fix much either, what I see now, is a lot of sore losers!  When did it become ok, to just terrorize everyone because your team lost?  No wonder we are in such a mess, doesn't anyone want to stop taking sides and start getting along? But this is the essence of the USA, are we running out of room, or just patience?

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
Theodor Geisel

 

 

 I have been analyzing the new movie Transformer's alot! And the analogies that they used to make us--pro-war. If you thought you could choose to be at peace when you went in there, your mind will change, they did an awesome job-- changing my mind.  I think that the best part that did it for me was when they decide to go to the Smithsonian Museum, and you see all the historic war planes, and the USAF is simply awesome!  --anyway they go to see if they can find some help from the other "Primes". They find an old "plane" bring one back to life, and at first they are terrified at the prospect that they brought back the wrong side, and they all run in fear. Until, it becomes obvious that this is not a bad guy, and when the ask him why hes not a bad guy anymore, he says, "We all have a choice" , and he makes it clear that the team to be on is the one that fights for the little guys! Because, the worst thing is to be with are those that want control of everyones choices...  I know that sounds basic, but take the case of another movie that quite graphically points out a choice.  You see, in the comic  Hell-boy, he knows what he is programed for, he knows what he is made to do, he cant help but see it -- everyday he has to file down his horns, because he is the key to destruction.  But in the end, he knows, that he can still make that choice to be different that what he is programed to be, to not be this evil destructive key, but to become aware of the power that is the choice, and that is far more impressive and valuable for him than anything that would permanently change the world, away from freedom and choice.

We're a nation of laws, but the good thing about America, is that laws reside in the people and people can change the laws.
Rick Warren

 

 

 

See, we all can give into the power that we think is "meant to be" because we are afraid, or  be cruel with our words in the spur of the moment-- because it just doesn't matter-no one is watching-or worse, we can let others make the choices for us, by never really fighting back.  Except that, it seems to me, that would be the greatest loss of all!  For I have learned that the people that have changed the world for the better, not only over came great obstacles of fear, health and even poverty, but also, I can list Disney, Lucas, Coppola, and Lassiter that had to look people in the face over and over and hear, your work isn't any good, and no one will like it. Art is one thing, but what about our forefathers when people said, well America is just too hard to tame, too many obstacles, who wants to farm anyway.  The mistakes with the Indians were made for us, we did not choose those, if we had done it, we would never have taken that shot---just like so many others, today, that are making the mistakes for us, and we sit and wait like we watch it on TV, and never get up and do anything about it.

Far more crucial than what we know or do not know is what we do not want to know.
Eric Hoffer

 

When was the last time-- you wrote congress and said your peace, about anything?  I hope you know who represents you, when was the last time you even knew what issues are worth fighting for, or is the battle already lost?

I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
Bill Cosby

 

When did we lay down our greatest weapons, our ability to debate and discuss, for the plague of simply being angry all the time, at the choices that are being made for us?  Our children that are in public schools,  they are loosing the choices we had in school, not because we are not paying out taxes, or that we are dying from the war or plagues or famine, no here in the USA, we made our choices, we voted- to have bigger city halls, bigger roads and bigger jails, rather than--fight back to find someone who is an architect of modern education.  Why do we have modern buildings that will hold, expensive designed furniture and televisions, and computers, and probably forgetting that if we dont watch out to save--the water and electricity, there is no building, that will be saving anyone.

 

I wanted this to be a little article on how we make good choices each day, and that we are quite blessed to have the modern choices we see all around us, in food, cars and our entertainment.  But more and more, I see that the 80 -20 rule overlaps into all aspects of life.  *80 percent of us rely on about *20 percent to do the choices.  This is a fact and I dont see it changing anytime soon, unless we really have to have to change, we like our comfort; Let other people do it....or we can be more like the angels we depend on to do miracles-  see this ten ways to be an angel  http://www.beliefnet.com/Inspiration/Angels/2008/09/Top-10-Be-an-Angel.aspx?p=3

 

I am sure you can think of something!Saint Augustine said: It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.

I hope you are well, and you can write me a comment, on what you think about being an angel by choice...

 

Blessings-- and love-

I can hear that tune, and it puts me right, its just one of the songs for me. Time has a way of healing, even the most broken heart, I know, but I also know that it can make us forget the best things as well.

In order to keep our mind and our hearts healthy, we need to revisit the childhood people that brought us through life, we recognize the way they carried us, and we love them. The simpliest act of listening and visiting someone can change the day for both of you, and time seems to pass differently, it does not start and stop with night and day, it does not seem to have boundries of the clock, we can remember things that can take us back to a day , when we were absolutely different people. This can be difficult, and it can be uncomfortable, but it is cleansing and always forgiving. No matter what you think about your past, you are the only one that sees it your way. You can carve it stone forever, and live in a cave, hiding from your past or write a book about it, or you can choose to rewrite what is the only life you really have.

I recently watched the story of WALT DISNEY , what an amazing story, full of leadership and real commitment to his family, but he had his historical oposition, and in the beginning of his career, he also had his artwork stolen. I believe we all have our artwork stolen, to some degree, and we can so choose to be scorned, or we can learn from it, and be better for it. If Disney had not been able to move forward from his issues, we would not have many great ideals for artist today, starting with residual royalties, trademarked names, and yes, Disneyland. Which I know some do not like, but did you know he alsmost put it in Portland Oregon? Think about that! ALso that his own Mother parished in his big house, from a gas leak? What did he have to do , to forgive himself for that? I can now understand the symbolic death in every movie he had, the passing of a parent is by far the most devastating thing to endure. Children are supposed to go first, as they say, but sometimes, this is reversed as well, and in the case of the famous it can be the most unfair expose of peoples free speech, impeeding others freedom.

Time passages: "Well I'm not the kind to live in the past, the years run to short and the days too fast, the things that you lean on are the things that don't last,"~ I am grateful for every moment and love the family that I have been so lucky, blessed and honored to have, its never too late to become another person, as we say in my family....turn into a 9 year old hindu boy, or maybe "something more", be the architecht of your life, and design the place where you live. Its all up to you.

Time passages.....

Oregon travel

I love to take a drive, I long for the open roads and the new sights. Oregon, is apart of the family fabric-with its bustling cities, and its regal rural nature...returning to nature straightens the wrinkles in my closet of thouhgtful worries. Nevermind the economy,Oregon is bigger,busier, better than I have seen it-ever...photos to come...

My thoughts are always with you be well,and keep in touch.
