Welcome to my brain. It’s messy. It’s interesting. And it’s all connected if you stick around long enough. "Believe Nothing: no matter who said it, even if I have said it, except it agree with your own reason and common sense. Siddhartha Guatamo, the Buddha.

Several bloggers noted that Ace of Spades had a hella post up

Heinlein readers (especially the later years of his writing) may recall “I will Fear No Evil”,,,,

An interesting tale of an old curmudgeon and his secretary of angelic temperment.

And most every chapter starts with headlines from the daily news. The whole story takes place in the heart of the Krazy Years, and

damned if we aren’t there,,,,

I don’t wanna go back in time, I just want a return to SANITY,,, This shit we see is intentional to drive those of us ‘conservatives’ loopy,,, I know its ‘by design’, but it doesn’t make it any easier to swallow. I know I see some signs of lashback happening, especially in the Feminine world where Womens sports are standing on principle as to what constitutes a female athlete: hanging nads ain’t it!

Its gonna take decades to scrub the stink of this time period off the decor of this country: Hell, the world for that matter,,,,

Race tomorrow. Start time for my age group is 9:25,,, 12 miles downriver: shouldn’t take more than 3 hours for all participants, but the serious racers are gonna wrap it up in around 1 (3 years ago, they had one do the 12 miles in 40 minutes,,, Thats cooking with gas bro!!!)

as for me, still feeling the cruds, and when I checked water levels today, decided that I will be taking BJ instead of Lizzy: river flow is still below 600cfs and that means shoals will be exposed, and I have NO DESIRE to rip the bottom out of a fiberglass boat, in a race that has only a $150 cashprize up for grabs. BJ is that tough double lined Polyethalyne hide and bounces of rocks (as I found out quite well on the Elkhorn,,LOL) With the way I am feeling, I have no illusions as to how hard I can push, but I am going to go and push some since 1) I paid for the priveledge and 2) maybe getting out and doing something will help more than the holing up and suffering thing,,,,
