Politics is Power

   Maybe I'm just frustrated because my new phone won't sync with my email account but I thought I'd take a minute and let you in on a few things.
   Now if you've ever read anything written by me you know I have very little confidence in the intellectual capacity of the American public.  I do not however think I've explained why, I will attempt to do so now.  If the following statement is true about you then you will understand what I am bitching about.
   If you feel more comfortable eating a pizza, drinking a beer and watching Lifetime, SportsCenter or worse something on MTV (except the cartoons) then you do about discussing the environment, US governmental policies and the Geo-political destabilization that is currently happening, then I am writing about your ignorance.
   I keep begging and pleading with you guy's to wake up!  Yes this Kony caricature is important but that's a fucking world away and I was always taught to clean your own home before criticizing others.  Doesn't matter if you're Liberal, Moderate or Conservative, we are all being duped by a corrupt Government that's playing a masterful hand of bait and switch.  I honestly don't know if it's a conspiracy or if they are all just like minded but it's happening.  It's always been this way but today it's more insidious then in the past and I say this because the lies were mainly for our protection, example:  Hide under your desk or in a ditch if a nuclear bomb goes off.  Now as there was really no safe place to be in the event of a nuke attack it's kinda of a justifiable lie just to keep moral up.  Today it's completely about GREED and RULING the world, I mean as the only real super power left, the balance is out of kilter and truthfully we are less safe now then during the cold war.
   The next time you go out consider buying a Time or Newsweek magazine and read them, occasionally turn on the science channel.  Don't depend on Cnn or Fox etc...  They don't have any credible investigative Journalist who dig deeper than the Whitehouse Press Secretary.
   Entertainment \ Infotainment is fun and enjoyable, hell I enjoy the idea of an X-Box, personally I rather do a puzzle but I won't let it take up so much of my time and energy that I won't spend Sunday morning watching GPS on Cnn, which I highly recommend by the way.
Wake up soon, this election is pivotal.

Entropy

  The Universe as we know it is constantly falling apart.  It was absolutely perfect and stable prior to "The Big Bang".

  Chaos in and of itself is very beautiful to watch if not deadly to be a part of.  The word recycle say's it all.  All the matter in the Universe right now is all that there ever has been or ever will be.   It (matter) cannot be created or destroyed.

  A lesson can be learned from this both on a macro (Universal) and micro (Earthly or even your neighborhood) scale.  There is only a finite amount of material to go around before it has to be reused.  The Universe shows us this time and again, when a star explodes the materials are regenerated into particles that are shot out into space to become everything from amino acids, carbon to the building blocks for a new star to humans.  For some reason (maybe it's because of the opposable thumb thing) we think we can continually use the new materials and not worry about this nagging little problem of finite resources.  Did you know most of the gold you wear has been recycled many times over since it made it to your neck?

  The planet even does this, Earthquakes and Volcanoes.  You think those are just photo opp's?  No it's the Earth regenerating itself over and over again.  As the main virus on this planet can't we take a hint and recycle everything possible?  I mean all glass, paper, plastic, metal, composting.  Not saying it won't be difficult but is anything worthwhile simple?  I've been begging you folks to wake up for a long time now yet it just doesn't sink in.

   We think technology will save us but think about it, 30-35 years ago there were 3 maybe 4 networks, simple.  Today you can watch virtually 500 channels while riding on the subway.  It's getting more complicated and therefore moving more and more towards chaos.
You've been warned.
