5 years in the WRONG direction
Today we relive the 9/11 Tragedy. I do not feel that we need to relive it anymore than I personally don’t need to relive the deaths of my parents when I was a teenager. Both events are etched deeply in my soul. I struggle with both issues on a daily basis. On a personal level I have learned to move forward toward healing. On 9/11 we have continued the tragedy with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. More die every week. Sickness infiltrates every aspect of our lives. Our country is not healthy.
Stop.
Heal.

BOYCOTT BUMPER-to-BUMPER
In today's mail I received a Bumper-to-Bumper flyer. EVERY item is listed first in Emglish then in Spanish. BOYCOTT! BUMPER-to-BUMPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any company/corporation that insists on deigning to Mexicans who refuse to speak English doesn't deserve your business. To rip at the fabic of our country by making Spanish our language is wrong. English is the ONE language we have, we use. Stop the betrayal!

Political Science
------Randy Newman
No one likes us-I don't know why
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
But all around, even our old friends put us down
Let's drop the big one and see what happens
We give them money-but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
They don't respect us-so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them
Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There'll be no one left to blame us
We'll save Australia
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an All American amusement park there
They got surfin', too
Boom goes London and boom Paris
More room for you and more room for me
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono
And there'll be Italian shoes for me
They all hate us anyhow
So let's drop the big one now
Let's drop the big one now

Where's the Wrinkle?
There was a time when I was a truth-seeker. I got over that. Truth shifts and becomes different and is hard to hang onto because it is always being replaced with a higher truth, so I am trying to go for THE BIG LIE now. It's very American.
Please congratulate me.

Frey, Oprah, Elie, and now ME!
Oprah must be pulling her hair out.
Now she has picked Elie Weisel's "Night" as her book-club selection. "Night" is consiered "a novel so real it sounds like a memoir." It was written in the 50s. So here we go again.
I know two "I pulled my toenails out with a pliers" writers, one in Chicago, the other in New York, who must be kicking their own asses for not calling their books memoirs instead of fiction. They missed the chance at becoming bazillionaires.
Part of the problem with writing, if you want success, is that you need to make it BIG. The BIG, outrageous story wins. So you "embellish."
Then comes along the fact-checkers and they screw everything up for you. So...here's the secret!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS BIG........perk up your ears (or eyeballs)......
Play out your fantasy on a template of reality. At least get the towns right, the colors of the prision uniforms, the streets...all of that REAL stuff that can't be changed, then make up names like Slinky and Wombat for your characters...you know NICKNAMES.Just say none of youse guys ever used REAL names.
Make it big. Men, and some women, really dig that hard-boiled crap..."I jammed his hand into the deep-fat fryer, a million degrees of hogfat, and what came out was a burnt bowling-ball of flesh."
Hahahahaha...fuck I should write the book myself.
