Soviet Americca

I have to decide, really soon, if I can actually go to Hawaii next May with my family. 

I am writing this at 2:30 AM because I just woke from a nightmare, an actual nightmare about going to Hawaii.  There was no fear of natural disasters or plane crashes or terrorists or anything like that.  I just had a nightmare about going through the GeTSApo Manned airport checkpoints.  I won't go into the details of the nightmare but it included being arrested and making a huge scene.

I have to decide if I'm willing to give up my rights as an American,no as a human being, in order to go to Hawaii with my family.  After this dream I'm not so certain that I can pull off the quiet sheep-shuffle through the GeTSApo checkpoint  that is required in order to travel to some states, like Hawaii, in today's Soviet Americca. 

Right now I'm still thinking I can manage it.  I'll take nothing with me.  I'll buy clothes there maybe, it's only a week so I could get a couple of pairs of shorts and shirts and flip-flops once I arrive on the island.  I can buy toiletries there as well, they must have a Dollar Tree there right?  I'll go with no bags, wearing flip-flops and shorts.  I'll duct tape my mouth shut... that's where it gets pretty scary though.  Maybe I need to duct tape my mouth shut and my arms to my sides as well, then I could go through without shouting subversive slogans like "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized!"  I'm pretty sure that would get me arrested.  After all the constitution has quietly been abolished and actually is now illegal to think or talk about and traveling by air forces one to agree with this illegal and un-American usurpation of power and authority.

I don't know if I can do it or not.  I have to decide very soon.  I'm not happy to be awake at 2:30 AM writing this and even less happy about the idea of allowing the Gestapo to molest me and violate my fundamental rights as a human being.

I love Maui, I love my family, I love the Constitution and Bill of Rights of the United States of America.  I don't know if I can get through this without being arrested though... wish me luck!

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. :-/

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

The Tea Parties

I didn't make our local Tea Party , but it pulled hundreds of people as well... 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...
