“The Last Sunset” 2011
“Come as you are, leave as you always wanted to be” – The Corner Parking Lot
I’m amazed at how one day I can be walking around in a t-shirt…and the low tomorrow is going to be minus 1….and maybe snow…this is either a really bad joke…or proof that Dick Cheney and haliburton…are jacking with the weather…
In my life time..I’ve seen the hidden become revealed…with little regard to what revealing it may do…how it may be translated and what direction the spiral is moving…I am certain it is downward…and the powers that be…don’t care at all about that direction…after all…any direction..as long as it has $$$$ attached to it is a good direction…right?…
there’s no doubt…money is a requirement…but buying into the insanity…is not…naivity ..aside…after reading an article recently..about the few last bastions of hope for providing “Organic” produce and products…accepting Monsanto’s “coexistence”…took any possible level out of what playing field there was…
I added this rebuttal/explanation for the above mentioned “article” January 31st…at 7:10 PM…you make the call….
I don’t know how much money I need…but I think it’s a question that we could all ask and come up with a lump sum for living out the rest of our lives…based on the type people we are and life style we choose and live…and I’m trying to think how much money would it take for me to be okay with ruining a river for the next 200 years…or polluting a place so badly it may never recover…or knowing my decision…my agenda took a few thousand lives…of my own country men and some people who “live over there”… on the map…or how my greed wiped out a population…or a species…there isn’t an amount…that would let me sleep…
and we get a little fatter each month…seats get larger on the plane…the skinny kid gets made fun of at school…and anybody who has a BMI of less than 30 is a freak…clothes sizes now go up to 8x….and “the Big and Tall stores”…are competing with Walmart…”Plus size” models have more work…than ever…cigarettes are 7 bucks a pack…gas and minimum wage are about the same…the BP oil spill has faded away…”evaporated” I believe is the term…Osama Bin Laden is still “hiding”…opium sales are up….President Obama…appointed JP Morgan executive William Daley would be the new White House chief of staff, Obama’s closest adviser….
and the machine just keeps on churning forward…
live well my little pretties…

Hay Robert.
Sometimes it just gets overwhelmingly embarrassing to be human, doesn’t it. Most mornings I get up and spend a few hours reading what the net has to offer, newspapers, http://www.aldaily.com/ , and various blogs and I feel like a yeast. Here I sit, surrounded by other yeasts, franticly turning sugars into alcohols with no thought to tomorrow. A hapless character in a dystopian science fiction novel I read as a kid.
Drunk on our own excrement.

I agree…although I don’t know if we have the advantage of getting drunk on excrement…

Metaphorically Robert.
We turn the resources of the world into plastic crap, then, congratulate ourselves on our “progress”.

I know…I find it amazing that we can destroy something and then find some redeeming quality for the destruction…While visiting China many years ago I went to a city that prided itself on leveling all of the hills surrounding the city…made the whole place into a grid of well sectioned out squares…kind of like Kansas…
