Unschooling report

Here is the stuff Serenity and I did this week that some people might think are somewhat schoolish, and some not as well.

On Wednesday we loafed around the house.

On Thursday Serenity had the first session of art class at Monart. She loved it!

We followed that up with a trip to El Cerrito where we met up with the SFBUNies for Perpetual Recess. Again, Serenity loved it. Perpetual Recess is to children what free range chickens are to poultry. No cages, just free range children :-) What it looks like is a big group of old hippies and their offspring :-)

From there we changed into our "fancy clothes" and headed over the Bay Bridge to the San Francisco Symphony where we heard "Lang Lang Plays Chopin" which was pretty good too!

Then today we went and met up with a big bunch of homeschooled folks at Whole Foods and had a tour of the various departments talking about things like what is organic, what does locally produced mean and what is cage free, that sort of thing.

Tomorrow is probably going to be going out to a Holidays in the Vineyards event at Mitchel Katz, and maybe other wineries.

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

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.

Government = Violence

What it comes down to is this, any law you propose states this, I will kill you if you do not agree to do "X." I say this because ALL laws say this. All . Jay walking is a "crime." So, what does that mean? It means if you jay walk you risk death at the hands of government enforcers. How so? You are accosted while jay walking by the local police. You say, "Buzz off bucko!" The cop says "you are under arrest!" You say "Not even." They attempt to restrain you and you resist, you are now "resisting arrest" and in the process of subduing you force will be used to make you to comply. The harder you resist the more likely "they" are to simply kill you. All laws imply deadly force. All laws = the death penalty. Of course they won't say you are being killed for the "crime" of jay walking, but for resisting arrest or attempting to escape or whatever, but really it's the original "crim
