The End of 2010 and the Shit's about to really hit the fan

Hello Kiddies,

   Well lookie we made it through another year, well not all of us did.  I recently learned that Blake Edwards passed on, truly a gifted man who made millions tearful with laughter, he will be missed.   I always get a bit sentimental during this time of the year.   I've been married twice and twice divorced and I have no children.

I'm not bitter about these events and frankly the sentimental side of me tends to split between going MENTAL and forgetting about all the sentiment.  

    Hence my friend up top, "THE MAXX", once upon a time "when MTV was actually entertaining" they would show an animated version of the above.   Along with THE MAXX they had Liquid Television "if you are under 40, you won't remember in all likelihood" but it was very entertaining.  Wait for it, I'm getting to the point...As you probably know by now, I love History all history not just actual historical events but pop culture, art etc...  Another thing you won't remember are the good old bad days of the cold war.   Well I'm here to warn you as STRENUOUSLY AS POSSIBLE it wasn't pleasant and we're heading towards another one.   Not on the same scale as NATO Vs. The Warsaw Pact granted but back then the leaders of the respective countries had some semblance of respect for one another.   

    This is not the case today, between North Korea and Iran, all it's gonna take is one misstep and there goes the ballgame.   The leaders of both these countries are megalomania-cal headcases just looking for a reason to start shit.  You think this recession was\is bad, wait until a real war starts, not theses bullshit skirmishes that the CIA should really be handling but a real honest to God "that's right I used the G word" War!   Think it won't or can't happen, think about Israel and Iran and all their neighbors and then consider what Iran is up to and what we all know that Israel already has. 

     So back on point, why is THE MAXX up top, because he stood for something good and noble, if only in a little girls head...When I was a child, I had childish thoughts, when I grew to adulthood I found that nothing had really changed except the words got bigger and I had to pay taxes.

     We all had better hit puberty real soon.... or well you figure it out.   This will be my last entry for 2010...Next week I think I'll go to Mass instead.

AMF...

Tis the Season?

Hello Kiddies,

    Sorry about last week and my tardiness last week, but if you've ever had a week and a half long birthday bash you know what I'm talking about, something new popped up everyday.    Now down to business, as many of you are aware no one knows exactly when Christ was born.   December 25 has it's roots in Pagan traditions.  So if we really don't know what the correct date is, wouldn't it be nice if we acted like everyday was Christmas?   Wouldn't humanity be better off, I say let the USA, the country that I love "contrary to what I have written" start the movement and see what happens.  Now I'm not dense enough to think we'll all be happy everyday of any given year but there are small things we can do, anonymously or not to help your fellow man.  It's been said "no good deed goes unpunished", I agree with that to an extent but truthfully minor inconveniences should not stop us from doing what we know is right.   An elderly neighbor may need their lawn mowed or more to the point today, shoveled out.   How much time does it really take to lend a hand, up not out.   Many many Americans are having a tough go of it currently and lets not forget about our furry little friends.  Pick a donation "odds are it'll be tax deductible" , it doesn't have to be anything large, I give to the Humane Society Yearly, not as much as I'd like but it's the thought that counts.   Well no speechifying this week, remember what's good for the whole not the individual is the best system on Earth.  Happy Holidays to All.    AMF....
