Round and round

I go around and around... or round and round... I hate Facebook, I love Facebook.  I'm Roman Catholic, I'm not Roman Catholic.  I'm taking public transportation, I'm driving.  I'm vegan, I'm paleo.  I'm going to post all the time on my blog instead of going to Facebook and reposting other people's stuff, what blog?


I'm on an endless spiral staircase... I look out on the same scene over and over from different levels but I am not really going anywhere... maybe it's more of an MC Escher sort of staircase...


I'm just a little kid...





I'm a cranky old man...





All at the same time...

I'm Russia as described by Churchill... a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma... 

I am what Nomad said of Uhura... silly sexist 60's :-)
Capt. Kirk: [of Uhura] What d'you do to her?
Nomad: That unit is defective. Its thinking is chaotic. Absorbing it unsettled me.
Spock: That "unit" is a woman.
Nomad: A mass of conflicting impulses.

So deal with it.  :-)

    You may not like to hear this but you are pretty normal. At least in this particular family. As I've told you before, I will NOT be classified as a certain religion, I am CHRISTIAN. Period! As far as being paleo, gluten free, vegan, etc. YIKES! All the conflicting info out there is mind boggling. I think our best bet is to be a child of God and eat healthy and not foods that make us sick. Especially you with the gluten problem. I'm keep doing the same thing and keep coming back to just eating whole foods, not processed. Meat, vegetables, fruit. Probably considered mostly paleo but without ALL the silly restrictions. And of course something now and then that doesn't fit. Like ice cream. We just have to quit knocking ourselves how trying to figure it out. You sound just like me and I'm an old lady of 80. Kari has the same go around too. When will we ever learn?

    Does Lora and Max want to go back to Messiah? I'm glad I find the church I attend to be a great place to worship, receive the eucharist and confess and be forgiven of sins and hear a good homily and have a good discussion class during Sunday School hour. Wish you lived here so we could attend church together like we used to do.

    Just be yourself. That self is a wonderful, loving son, father, grandfather and brother. We love you and God loves you.

      Yes, Lora and Max want to go too. :-) Well, it may be normal for this family but it sure is frustrating at times :-)

      If you don't want to go there just let Lora take her kids and go. And yes, it is frustrating. Life is frustrating. But I prefer to leave it all in God's capable hands. He has my apt. and when it is time, I'll get it. Three weeks and two days. Are you ready for Kari & I?

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. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,...

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
