Standard Time again

Thanks to the bozos in government we are now moving our clocks back an hour. A total waste of time actually. There is no real logical reason to shift the clocks around, especially since the country is more or less open 24/7 these days it makes little difference in energy consumption.

Check out the End Daylight Saving Time web site.

In any case, I finally get the hour back they stole from me before last spring, seems to me they should give me interest on it, maybe three or four hours paid absence from work for the whole country. Thieving government scum anyway...

One more reason not to shift the clocks back and forth is the increase in accidents at each shift, it confuses people, causes people to drive while drowsy... it's a stupid idea, thus the government loves it to no end!

The Tea Parties

Tea, anyone? from Father Hollywood by Father Hollywood Like hundreds of thousands of other Americans, the Hollywoods enjoyed a tea party this past Wednesday. "Tea party" (wink wink). Nothing subversive about sipping a little Darjeeling, eh wot? Nothing to see here, Miss Napolitano. Anyway, our local festivities were held at Veterans Memorial Boulevard in Metairie. There were literally thousands of people crammed into the neutral ground (though on that day, the ground was anything but...), as cars and trucks poured by the busy boulevard laing on their horns in support. Here are pictures. And like every such gathering in our environs, there was even a brass band and an improptu "second line" parade. It was a "party" after all. But it was a party with a serious reason. The crowds were so overwhelming that it was hard to hear the speakers, and unfortunately, we did have a fe...

Viva California! USA out of California Now!

Gene Veith points to a Russian who predicts the breakup the American Empire. Gene is somehow unaware of the dozens of secessionist movements in various states. Granted they are almost all small but still, they exist and this could be a good time for us. Those who know me already understand that I'm a California Nationalist who I doesn't think California should have joined those united States in the first place. Being a part of that empire just costs us money, we get nothing in return. These days we get to be hated by foreigners for being Americans and mocked by Americans for being Californians. Getting us out of the US yesterday would be a day too late as far as I'm concerned.

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think. :-) I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all. Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
