Balance

 

 

I'm working on staying balanced in my life these days.  Facebook has been a challenge for me, as y'all know who have been around me much :-)  My method for keeping my balance will involve, among other things, only going onto Facebook when I have come up with something relatively positive to post there.  I will be putting my first post of the day here in this blog from now on, because that allows me to write up a post without the distraction of being on Facebook before I write.  I've had times in the past where I would go onto Facebook to write about something and end up being bombarded with the comments section and looking at other's posts and the 100,000 memes a day some people throw up (you know who you are), and never do manage to say what I went there to say, forgetting what it was most times.  Things I'm going to write about will probably NOT be political at all, because I can't seem to turn that into a positive, ever.  I can post about family events, what the grand-kids and I are up to,  maybe some spiritual thoughts I have, quotes from Orthodox Saints and Fathers will undoubtedly show up here, maybe some scriptural passages that get my attention during my daily readings.

BUT balance does NOT preclude me reposting snarky anti-government, pro-Volutaryist and pro-PEACE things directly on Facebook, skipping those would not be real balance.  I will try to keep them less hostile than I have in the past though.

Finally, this blog, such as it is, has a subscribe button.  If you hit that you can receive all of my brilliant posts directly in a single email per day.  Or not.  :-)  But even if I leave Facebook again, or get banned again, I will continue to post here so if you ARE subscribed we won't lose touch.

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
