Reds Win 2012 Series

A writer from SI.com has predicted the Reds win the 2012 World Series behind the bats of Bruce & Votto and the pitching of Cueto & Latos....

That would only further cement feelings for my only true sports love. If the Reds can pull that off, the middle aged now would have seen the Big Red Machine in their youth, the Nasty Boys of 90, and the "Yet to be determined" of 2012.

And if we make it to old age in the Nursing Home.... they can win another in 2035.

If the Reds win with balanced pitching and hitting.....what would be a good nickname for the new champions?

How about.... the Little Red Hybrid?

Decisions and resolutions for the new year...

1. Tablets are cool... soon will take over personal entertainment devices.

2. Bloggs are fun... even if only for your own amusement.

3. Watching the world financial collapse has actually become boring, and tiring.

4. More to come.... with time.

Remember This Mantra

For Those Who Believe

No Explanation is Necessary

For Those Who Do Not Believe

No Explanation is Possible



I believe there will come a time soon when you hear this little ditty again and again. There will come a time of signs and wonders... be not deceived. If they say he is in the desert, or here, or there.... do not be troubled... He will return from whence he came and in the same manner.

Big Brother & Cincinnati Enquirer

The Cincinnati Enquirer & "Cincinnati.com" have a clever (and dishonest) way of working around free speech.... they will allow you to comment on any article or Letter to the Editor.... in fact, they will allow you to comment to your hearts content... but they may not allow you comments to be seen to the rest of the world...

They can actually create a personal "website" for you, which displays all your comments... and makes it look as though you are in the discussion... when in fact... you are shouting in the digital wind....because no one else will ever see your comments...

I must admit... I have enjoyed the debate back and forth with others in my community on topics from Health Reform to the Catholic church, and many topics in between. And, I feel as anyone does, that my comments were valid and legitimate arguments to the subject at hand... but they must have raised a little hair on the neck of the wrong people.... people with the ability to create a system to disallow free speech, in a way that may deceive most....

I know, hard to follow.... but just look below. I use the screen name Farkel44. This is what I see on my computer.





.....but this is not what the rest of the world sees.... they see the screen below...
.


This of course occurs on every post I make.... Of course, you may say this is just a "glitch"..... how do others comments display... and mine do not?... I happen to think it is an internal decision made at the Enquirer... call me crazy... but, at the very least, they are aware that this happens... and decide not to make people aware....

Thanks Big Brother...

The Turning

I just heard a dramatic turning.... it was obvious, to anyone with an ear... The war in Afghanistan has gone for many years... but today on radio... they played the sounds of a grieving woman who had lost her child....(in between commercials)...

The shift is dramatic... from Sept 8th, and the 14 days that follow... dramatic images will play out.. keep cameras handy... keep note pads and pen & paper.

The U.S. will leave Iraq and Afghanistan.... amid violence and demonstrations at home....

Make way... make way.

The Road is Paved

The mere fact that people are feeling that the world is on the verge of chaos is the fact the world is on the verge of chaos.

The pot is most certainly boiling.... and we will make tea... and sweeten it to each individual's tastes.. or the pot of boiling water will be thrown upon those who happen to be in the way.

Viva La' Donkey.

May it be done on Earth, as it is on Campus.
Lead us not into Inflation, but deliver us from evil Capitalism.
