Things change

Sometimes you are the dog, and sometimes you are the hydrant.

Convenience

My mentor Gary Scott has said we are hooked on convenience. A co-founder of Twitter has stated that convenience decides everything.

We always chhose the easy way, especially in America. That is how our Coronavirus dilemma will be decided. It is evolving now with the opening of some states where people are communing without regard to the fear tactics being espoused by our so called leaders.

An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered.

Royalty

Doug Casey made my day today by defining royalty as really nothing more than successful marauders who have buried the origins of their wealth in romance.

We need only think of this definition when a royal wedding takes place, or any ceremony related to them. I think you could easily see any Vatican event in the same manner.

The Paula Method

Paula Garbourg developed an exercise routine to balance your ring muscles (also called sphincter muscles). These exercises can be done during your daily routines of eating , drinking without much fuss.

If you exercise one ring muscle ,such as your Orbicularis Oris, the muscles around the opening of your mouth, the effect will be beneficial in your urinary bladder sphincter and all other sphincters as well. This is the underlying priniciple of the method.

While eating if you place a bolus of food in the front of your mouth and purse your lips while you chew, the good effect will be shared with all the rest of your ring muscles.

I’ll continue to report on the progress of this technique as it is used.

Cucumber Calm

Having always been excitable and resistant to tranquility, I have decided to emulate two men in the future.

One is Ray Mathis a very capable all around fix it man, who always exemplified calmness as he was challenged in his work. Always calm as he repaired or built anything to perfection.

The other example I will follow is a deep water solo sailor with naval aviator experience who knows how to handle any challenge at sea and any unwelcome condition with total composure.

The Deep State

The deep state is Wall Street. It is London’s banks and law firms. It is the State Intelligence agencies. It is the controlled corporate media. It is the Foundations and the think tanks. There is also a structure that intersects organized crime and certain sponsored politicians.

It produces deep and universally destabilizing events in society like the JFK assassination.

Snows of Kilimanjaro

Ernest Hemingway has always captivated me. Last night watching the movie again, probably for the first time in sixty years, I was reminded of his advice to a young writer to just write one honest sentence.

In the movie he explains to his wife that he thinks he can sum it all up in one paragraph. Sum up what? Life I suppose. Another admirable goal.

So whether it be one perfect sentence, or everything in one paragraph; I think it is important to your audience to be brief and clear.

That seems to be a worthwhile goal.

Hydroponics and Aquaponics

Slightly different techniques for growing food without soil. Developed by Boeing teams trying to provide growth of food in outer space.

Hydroponics used added fertilizer in water. Aquaponics uses fish waste instead of fertilizers for the same purpose.

Learning this and other techniques of food growth intended to be taught to children who are able to digest the ideas and even improve upon then because they have not yet learned that something is impossible to do.

Contact Tracing

House of Representatives Bill 6666 ( a somewhat suspicious number in itself) authorizes the Sovietization of the United States. This less than subtle attempt to enter peoples homes under the guise of the public good to examine for Coronavirus existence is the beginning of the American Stasi. It should be exposed widely.

What else would you call this invasion of private property for the greater good? That phrase was always coming out of the mouths of Jesuit educators with whom I had contact as a student. Like it really is for our own good. How many times have you heard that, only to find it was only for others advantage.

This contact tracing is quickly becoming the new normal. The possible resistance of implementation in this growing Stasi Army will be easily overcome by using foreign troops or the use of robot investigators. They don’t rebel or resist.

It is so hard to comprehend this weaponization of regulations being used unconstitutionally against us that we must educate our fellow men where possible. Inform where possible, and expect resistance to the very idea.

Marge Lindheimer Everett

My first introduction to horseracing was provided by the owner of Chicago’s most prominent racetrack. Marge Everett was the daughter of Ben Lindheimer who owned three tracks in Chicago and Santa Anita in Los Angeles.

Marge was a close friend of many Jesuit priests at Loyola University, who loved the races and were her guests anytime they wished. My paraplegic mother was often invited to the track with the priests who provided transport for her in a station wagon on her ambulence cot. When I accompanied them I was not allowed in the track because of Illinois age restrictions in those days. But Marge overuled the law and said I was a house guest of hers. Her house was a multilevel structure on the finish line at Arlington Park and was lavish in all respects.

My introduction to horseracing was glamorous and many dignitaries also joined us at Marge’s quarters where many foods and drinks were served on a contiuing basis. If you have to be subjected to watching the races , this was the way to go.

Thanks Marge. Thanks Father Flanagan and all the others.
