    MUSE – Mercy – Lyrics below
    Help me, I’ve fallen on the inside
    I tried to change the game
    I tried to infiltrate, but now I’m losing
    Men in cloaks always seem to run the show
    Save me from the
    Ghosts and shadows before they eat my soul
    Mercy
    Mercy
    Show me mercy, from the powers that be
    Show me mercy, can someone rescue…[Read more]

    The full run from George Carlin … “But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education s—s, and it’s the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It’s never gonna get any better. Don’t look for it. Be happy with what you got. Because the owners of this country don’t want that. I’m talki…[Read more]

    • Thank you Scarmoge for putting it print. I’d watched it on YouTube several times, but somehow when you read GC marvelous rant it goes deeper to your heart.

    As George Carlin said so well, “It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it. You and I are not in the big club”. If you have to ask, “Am I in the club”? or “Now exactly where are these underground areas”? … you are NOT in the club.

    … one can not be rational with the irrational. So … she will of course be resigning her position at MIT correct? … and she will of course immediately stop participating in any and all activities related to or derived from that which she opposes. I’m not sure though how she might go about making such determinations since notions of logical…[Read more]

    From Aristotle – Politics
    Given the Yellow Vest situation … One has to wonder …
    “As to (2) tyrannies, they are preserved in two most opposite ways. One of them is the old traditional method in which most tyrants administer their government. Of such arts Periander of Corinth is said to have been the great master, and many similar devices may be…[Read more]

    Yes, yes … I can see it now … Notre Dame with a glorious, magnificent 5G spire.

    I also read yesterday a comment by a British MP expressing concern over lack of fire suppression in Parliament buildings. Predictive Programming possibly?

    • It was said a few years ago that extensive renovation was needed, but they couldn’t decide on difficult points like the logistics of closure, whether to hold sessions on the premises or elsewhere, and the costs. Brexit might be easy in comparison…

      • Pssst don’t tell anybody but the buildings where the French Parliament meet are not exactly new: Palais du Luxembourg (17th cent. with extensions) and Palais Bourbon (18th cent. and extensions).

    With the news concerning Julian Assange ….
    To paraphrase refined Southern Women of the late 19th century in the manner, it is said, to have referred to the recently concluded Civil War …
    In the future that which we will refer to as “our most recent unpleasantness.” has begun, I fear, with the arrest of Assange.

    A question to consider … What might contribute to the observed phenomenon that the majority of communication seemingly
    appears in the form of rumours and rumours of rumours? (As an aside – Is this an attempt to once again create a “confusion of tongues”?)

    • Information warfare is big, powerful, everywhere and complex. It’s purpose is to confuse, misdirect, distract, misinform and disinform – in other words, to give you an advantage over your enemy and to prevent him from seeing where truth lies: within.

    … I suspect that someone in the royal family will correct Winst… er uh Harry’s “slight misunderstanding”. He has, for some unknown reason, simply forgotten how to do simple arithmetic (e.g. that 2 + 2 = 5). He will receive remedial instruction I’m sure. Fortunately the course is quite short actually involving the memorization of only one…[Read more]

    … yes, by all means we should look out for the Romans … and don’t forget also to watch out for the Franks and Venetians who have been known to burn (or thieve) a library now and then. Oh I almost forget, … also look out for anyone who you know whose “office number” is 101, uses the Latin phrase “Damnatio Memoriae”, or tells you that on…[Read more]

    … order some favorite Chinese food and dip a morsel or two in some hot Chinese mustard
    … also 5-10mg of zinc has proven useful for clearing the sinus
    … hope you are “above the weather” soon.

    • Yep. That hot mustard or just some horseradish will really open thing up.
