                                                                      Its getting toward the end of the current year , and already I am wishing it gone . Not that I am wishing my life away , more like just get it over with and let us try and begin again on hopefully a better note . Its getting to the point that come the evening time , when you have a little time to reflect on whats gone on during your day , you just know in your heart of hearts it could have gone maybe a little better . With a little less drama , and more of a constructive contribution from ourselves .Something that you can sit back and look upon as being more in the way you would...

The Palmyra Atoll as uninhabited as you can get !                                                                      Hello from Pantomime land . It gives me great satisfaction to inform you all that the reactions to my previous post Thanksgiving Hypocrites have gone viral . O k maybe I am being a little dramatic in describing it that way , but it certainly had a good few comments agreeing with my description and estimation of a holiday that is so hypocritical , that when thought about it really makes an outsider , and maybe a lot of insiders too , want to just vomit . All of this self-righteousness , and we are the chosen ones to protect this ail...

                                                                         And so your last Thursday in November that always signifies Thanksgiving , has come and passed , and you're all probably worn out from all of the back patting that has gone on for the last few days . You may have even survived being in the same company as your brothers and sisters , hopefully without slitting each others throats . Sat down to dinner , drank a few drinks and chatted about the local gossip and news wherever you happen to be from . All in all the usual crock of shit that's been going on for  hundreds of years . Nothing really changes . ...

                                                                  WITH SO MUCH NEGATIVITY AROUND , I AM TRYING MY BEST TO STAY POSITIVE ! NEVER REALIZED HOW FU..... DAMN HARD IT CAN BE !

                                                                      There were many attempts to be the first person to fly in the early years of the Twentieth Century . But finally on October the 5th 1905 Wilbur Wright piloted The Flyer the third for 39 minutes and flew 24 miles of circles around Huffman Prairie . He basically flew the first practical airplane until it ran out of petrol . Think about it . And while doing that , just realize that that first venture into manned flight was only , only 111 years ago . I was born in 1953 , and while I have never considered it until now actually , that 48 years previous to my birth , this giant leap w...

                                                                       I've been asking myself the same set of questions , for a helluva long time now . They are something along the line of , what is important to me , and why does that same importance not be important to other people . Or something like , why is it so necessary  to try and solve the mysteries of the universe in one day , when you have all of your lifetime to do it . Not that there is a possibility that you ever will , but you will try your best . You just have to engage with the patient part of yourself , instead of always rushing trying to get tomorrows work done today ...

                                                                     What is it about the truth that we try so hard not to share ? Why when asked something maybe a little embarrassing , or awkward , we tend to fib a little rather than just be honest and tell the truth ? Maybe the human condition warrants us all to be able to twist things a little in our favour , when it comes to the admission of something .                                          ...
