Welcome to the North American Union. Just as the European Union was started stealthily via an international mining agreement back in the 50s, our fearless leaders in both parties are moving forward with the NAU while denying it every step of the way. It started slow, programs like NAFTA were created to improve trade between the US and Mexico (I guess Canada was in there, too...but mainly

We are in a terrible jam as a nation, and unless we make drastic changes quickly we will never recover. In a nutshell, the economy/financial situation is far worse than the mainstream media is letting on. Dig a little on Google or You Tube and you'll find numerous posts and videos explaining that it is a mathematical impossibility to get out of the debt we are in. Being that I am not an

As I read the news every day, I become more convinced that unless there is a radical shift in thought and action by the world's populations we are doomed as a 'modern' society. Like many of you, I check blogs, videos and news sources many times a day to see what's happening; what is the mainstream media not telling us? Whether it's the topic of radiation leaks at Fukishima or in Nebraska, the

So, anyway....I live in Arizona as some of you may know. I've been here for 5 years or so...and something has always driven me crazy. And trust me, if I were in charge this would have been fixed long ago! Back in the day, there was the Arizona Territorial Prison in Yuma, AZ. At some point last century, after AZ had become a state, they opened the big state prison in Florence, AZ. Of

Anyone who has dogs, knows that a dog will roll over and show its tummy as a sign of passivity. It's the dog's way of saying "You win, you're the alpha and I will do what you want as long as you don't eat me"...Well leave it to another pussy lib...this time a Bishop....follow the link to see how he wants everyone to start calling god "Allah" to appease the moslem hordes...unbelievable cowardice!

Hi Guys,So, here's my dilemma...for my birthday, I bought myself a black Gibson Les Paul Standard! I've always wanted one, and it is awesome! But, I can't decide if I should leave the white pickguard on or replace it with a black one, or take it off all together...what do you think? Here's two pics...neither are my guitar but you get the idea....I like the way both look...I also like black

The title says it all....any man who is liberal is a pussy in my mind....I'm sorry for being literal...I am tired of being 'sensitive'...We are in a war against a religion that thinks women are property....not just second class citizens....Libs are pussies...grow some balls...lol...

God, I just spent about 4 days debating with a bunch of libs over in the comments on Betsy's Page. I had to quit. You can't even talk to them....fuckin' cowardly pussies...At least on my site I can swear and not care about being offended...lol...Ya know...I was a hippie, liberal musician for a long time...I lived and played music in San Francisco and NYC....I finally had the sense to see the

I hate the chickenhawk argument...for those of you who don't know...it goes something like this:If you haven't served and fought, you have no right to comment on the war. Or, if you are young enough, why aren't you serving now?It's just a liberal, cowardly way to try to stop the argument over the war. Not everyone serves in the same way. Some ball-less lib on another forum recently tried to

One thing I never understand about the Republicans is...Why don't they speak out more? People are basically sheep (most anyway). They get a little news from the biased media and believe it all. They then go out to the pasture and eat grass. It takes a lot of hits to the head to make them move. Now, we all know there are rich Republicans. Why doesn't someone start a group to buy ad time on

And don't you dare question their patriotism....heh.I've been reading about the The New Republic's Baghdad Diarist. What a joke. The truth is that people on the left don't support the troops as a general rule. They hate war and think our army is savage, viscious and uncontrollable.I think I've figured out why.

Just stop it already! You know what's wrong with our educational system these days? They obviously do not teach logic and critical thinking....There was no conspiracy to bring down the towers on 911...get that through your stupid, mushy brains!

Okay, here's part II of the new media brainwashing meme....We constantly hear that we need to get out of Iraq...Bring the troops home! Over and over and over....one question...why? Why bring the troops home? We never have before. We have troops in Japan, troops in Germany, troops in Korea...get this straight: WE NEVER BRING THE TROOPS HOME!!!!!!!!!! What does it matter to the average

As I read the news and watch it on television I am driven crazy by what the news media fails to tell the public. In a way it is a form of brainwashing by leaving important information out. So, I've decided to bring attention to some of the things that the general public are not being told. Someone with an agenda is attempting to wipe this information from the public memory...Let's start with

Here's an homage to Rudolph that my pal Ravenna and I wrote back in the day:The Strange, Unsolved Mysteries of Rudolph Hey, have you ever noticed all the weird things that go on in the T.V. show "Rudolph, the Red-nosed Reindeer"? It's really scary! Check this out: How come the Elves call the dentist Herbie, but Rudolph and Sam the Snowman call him Hermie? How come they have Reindeer practice to

Okay, so a plane has crashed into a building in New York City....they say it wasn't terrorism.... I think I know what it was.....It was an attack on George Jefferson for moving on up to the east side....I'm sure of it. Racists!

Okay, in light of the terrorist plot uncovered in Britain this morning, can we start racially profiling? Or is every flight going to be delayed because my Irish-Swedish mother needs to be searched for explosive liquids. We all know that every terrorist attack on a plane in the last 20 years has been by moslem males between the age of 18 and 35. How long are we going to pretend that it is not

Even though no one wants to admit it, the world is headed towards World War III. Israel is defending itself from the usual Moslem psychotics, India has stated that Pakistan is responsible for the recent bombings in Bombay, North Korea is run by a nutball with nukes.....I think it is time for the U.S. to rock and roll.I think we should preemptively attack Iran AND North Korea.

I love Israel. What other country is tough enough to go to war to save one of their own, certainly not us. Israel has had to defend itself for 60 some-odd years against crazy moslems mostly on their own. I can only wish that we could be so decisive. Wouldn't it be nice to wake up tomorrow to the news that George Bush blew up the North Korean missles on the launching pad? That would be a great

I think (I'm still waking up) I just heard a rumor on Fox News that Tom Tancredo may run for president in '08. Now THAT would be cool!! He's my kinda guy. I'm too lazy to look for a link (Google it yourselves, lazybones!!) but a couple of years ago he had the great idea of bombing Mecca. He took alot of flak for that but I thought it was a great idea.

I confess, I have really hit rock bottom this time and I may need an intervention. I crocheted this doily and I liked it! I liked every minute of it! It was fun!

Liberals need to be grounded and sent to their rooms for at least a couple of years if not forever. I'm sorry to say that they are just too naive, childlike, trusting and and I'm sorry to say too fucking stupid to take part in the adult world.Here's just one thing in a mile long list of stupid things liberals believe.

Yeah, I know it came out a coupla years ago, but I finally saw the Last Samurai with little (he's really short) Tommy Cruise. The story follows our hero Tommy-boy, as he goes in pursuit of a small, 1980s SUV. He finds lots of Sidekicks along the way but finally finds the very last Samurai:

I have to say a special congrats to my car today. She's a Toyota Rav 4 and I've had her for a long time. Well, last night she stayed up and studied and studied and studied.

So, as my post below mentioned, I've been battling this ear disease for the last 8 months or so...unfortunately it forced me to take a break from playing guitar so I've had to find new outlets for my creativity.....here's one sample of what I've been up to, a pink elephant. LOL!

I was just watching Fox News and the reporter was interviewing some nameless congressman. The reporter asked the following question:"Do you think that early withdrawal will lead to a big mess?"My question is.....was he talking about Iraq or something more intimate?

For those not in the know, Meniere's is an ear thing that causes sea-sickness, the dizzies, tinitus, basically my ears and head felt like they were always about to explode.I had ear surgery two weeks ago and for the first time in months I'm getting some

Okay, maybe the title is a little harsh. Maybe liberals aren't idiots, maybe they are just children who need to be protected from themselves. They live in some weird la la land where just talking to terrorists is better than killing them...just ask Steven Spielberg, that's pretty much what he said while being interviewed about his new movie "Munich".

So, have I ever mentioned that I can control traffic lights? No? It's true, I can control traffic lights and I have done years of double blind, scientific experiments to prove it. And by double-blind experiments I do not mean I was being aided by Stevie Wonder and Jose Feliciano although I bet they can't control traffic lights, especially since they shouldn't be driving as they are both blind.

Well, I haven't blogged for a month, and the people close to me know that it is because I've been down with leprosy and the bubonic plague; both at the same time!! But yesterday and today, I conserved my energy so I could enjoy time with family and friends for the big ole Christmas holidays.Physically I am paying the price right now for being out and about the last two days, but it was so worth

Just a quick post to mention that I have never played Scrabble. How weird is that?

My wonderful boyfriend, who I will call 'Bob' to protect his anonymity, took me too Biosphere 2 this past weekend. What a fun place! For those of you unfamiliar with it, Biosphere 2 was built as a research project in the early 90s. The idea was to build a facility where a group of scientists could explore the difficulties of living in a sealed environment. Relying only on elements within the

Sometimes I think I am living in a bizarre parallel universe ala the Twilight Zone. Although I am a very compassionate person, I am also a realist and hate to see the bizarre things that government officials think are good ideas. Take the following for example...In my humble opinion or IMHO as we computer geeks say, when someone is convicted of a crime, they need to be punished, not coddled. An

Good news on the science front! Sane citizens in Pennsylvania have voted out 8 of 9 incumbents of the school board trying to bring the joys of intelligent design to the classroom. It seems that parents who vote are much wiser than government officials who believe in the god of the gaps. It's one thing if you want to believe in a silly, vengeful man in the clouds, it's another to have it taught as

Greetings to all who may have stumbled here via The Bonfire of the Vanities currently hosted by the Conservative Cat. It seems that the Cat deemed two of my posts worthy of dumping onto the great conflagration of the blogosphere. The first post deals with the proud life and sad death of Rosa Parks. The second burning ember is my personal solution to welfare reform. Burn baby, burn!

For those of you who are like me and have been on the planet for a bit, you may remember ads from the 60s and 70s promoting the drink the astronauts drink! Orange flavored Tang. Well, we all wanted to be as cool as the spacemen, so drink it we did. Well, the powers that be in the advertising world didn't stop at orange flavoring. There were chocolate energy foods the astronauts ate. Astronaut

The other day I took a photo of a lamp fixture above my head. I felt a pang of deja vu and suddenly felt that I could be listening to government secrets and not have to worry about it. Here's a shot of the lights I was standing under. I stood there for a minute until I finally realized where I had seen this before. It was the Cone of Silence from Get Smart! Sorry about that chief!

Now this is really what I need! Google has this shopping list feature in Froogle. I always run across things I want to buy but just not at this moment. When the time comes that I am in a buying mood, I always forget the things I was thinking about weeks before. I do this a lot with books. Because I always have so many books waiting to be read, when I come across something new, I want a place

This is almost too ridiculous to be believed. Patterico has a post up about a Harvard Professor and Hoover Institute Fellow who apparently knows nothing about history. The professor, Niall Ferguson confesses in an LA Times op-ed that he did not know who said "Give me liberty or give me death!". Now, for anyone reading this I can forgive you if you don't know. But for a professor of history at

My blogging favorite Minding the Planet, has a great article up about some new research. Apparently the human body gives off light from various parts of the body such as the head and hands. For me, this explains two things. The first, now I know why I don't break my nose when I am trying to find the bathroom in the middle of night. And also, I now know why people think I'm an angel when they

How cool is this? Via Boing Boing, a service is being offered by Forbes that allows you to email yourself up to 20 years in the future! I think I'll write an email to myself talking about my life as a rock star with millions of dollars. I'll write about the time I saved the world from the evil Avian Flu Pandemic of 2007. I'll make note of the time I won an Academy Award for Best Actress in a

If there is one thing (although in reality there are lots of things) that drives me absolutely bonkers, it is political correctness. Everyone is soooooooo sensitive these days about every little presumed slight. I'm Irish, so I guess I am supposed to be offended and emotionally devastated if someone makes a joke about drunken Irishmen or if someone calls me a 'mick'. The truth is, I don't care. I

Just a quick post to point out something about Islamic Law. Did you know that throughout the middle east it is illegal and a mortal sin to perform sexual acts with the fruit of palm trees? I kid you not. It's called Date Rape.

I must admit that I do not follow pro football that closely. But I just heard part of a news broadcast about the New York Giants. Apparently one of the Giants has cancer. As I say, I didn't hear the full report so I just got the part where the news guy was saying that someone named Amani has a tumor. Let's all wish him the best! And a quick recovery!

Okay, I confess. I am a groupie. An unabashed, maniacal groupie. But, I am not the type of groupie who dresses trampy and hangs out with rock bands. I am a science and math groupie... but, okay I still dress trampy. I never made it to calculus in college, nor physics for that matter. But I love reading books on astronomy, quantum physics and mathematics. I can't remember where I found this, but

There has been an ongoing debate in this country about the pros and cons of welfare. The conservative thoughts range from complete abolishment of the welfare state to more middle of the road welfare/training/work programs. The left moves from the complete support of the downtrodden to the same middle of the road welfare/training/work programs. I believe I have come up with a system that should

I've decided that I am a big fan of jingoism. People always use the term to degrade fanatically patriotic people, but that could be a good thing. Let me illustrate this point using an analogy...Pretend that you're an Oakland Raiders fan in Oakland Stadium watching them play oh let's say the Atlanta Falcons. Now I'm not a huge football fan, but I do know that a large group of raider fans are crazy

Just the other day I added a link (see sidebar) to one of my favorite sites, Minding the Planet. It is a great blog about the web, web 2.0, science and all sorts of fun stuff. I have the Minding the Planet rss feed subscribed in my Bloglines account, so when there is new content I get it right away. Well today, Nova Spivak's Minding the Planet has a post up to see who links to the site. Well, I

I've been reading a lot lately about setting up blogs and web sites. Since my last foray into the world wide web, things have changed a bunch. Too see how much, just look at an old archived site of mine: Hamsterland! Gross! The web is a lot prettier these days. Well, today via The Carnival of Computing, I have found the perfect tutorial for wannabe webbies. Soldiers' Angel has an outstanding

Last night I finished reading The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman. It is the first book in Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. What a fantastic read! I won't give away much of the plot, but this adventure story has suspense, intrigue, probability waves collapsing and the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. The story follows the adventures of young Lyra as she escapes from evil

Today I'd like to talk about umbrage. What a great word that is! I think today it is just about my favorite word. For those of you with a limited vocabulary, umbrage means to take offense. For example, I could say "I take umbrage at your suggestion that my guitar is made of wood!" Well maybe that really isn't a 'real world' example. Let's try again, shall we? "I take umbrage that you would think

Well since this is a new blog, I better explain something. Sometimes I write about politics. Sometimes they will be fanatical posts raging against the PC crowd and liberals in general. There may be pro-war posts on occasion. But here's the tricky part. When those posts do come about, just know it's not me. It's Lily. You see, Lily is one of my best friends. I love her to death. And although she

Wow, I've been teaching myself all of the ins and outs of building web pages and blogs today. When I had my website Hamsterland years ago, I had it all down pat. Now I'm having to re-learn riding the bike, so to speak. The most important thing I learned today is that customer service reps suck! Besides this blog, I have some web space on my Comcast account that I'd like to take advantage of.

Oh my gosh! Did you hear the latest insult to Rosa Parks? Apparently the cemetery she will be laid to rest in is overcrowded. The latest news is that she will not be able to occupy the grave intended for her. They already gave it to some white guy and she is being moved to the back of the cemetery....
