Just RUN.
No route. No watch. No goals. Only, run. Sometimes it’s the perfect remedy. Add some Champions League on the tele, and a cup of tea. Perhaps I should do something productive today. Perhaps there’s tomorrow.

Question Re: Healthcare Mandate
This is an issue, even with the traffic it is receiving, I don’t think people are realizing the significance here. The question is this simple: If our “representative” congress can MANDATE that I enter into a financial contract with a private entity (in this case a health insurance company) for no other reasons than being a United States citizen and being alive, what then can...

A Fact About Federal Government for All to...
There is but one proven fact, made abundantly clear through my years of federal/military service. Every single American should consider this fact whenever posed with any question regarding any political and/or government topic. That fact: It does not matter how big or how small, it does not matter to what extent, it does not matter in what capacity, if the federal government gets involved,...

Fact #27
Being “mentioned” by fake celebrity twitter accounts makes my day! Tweets and shit.

The worst part of that Geraldo Rivera quote:
paxamericana:
“There is some things that are almost inevitable. I’m not suggesting that Trayvon Martin had any kind of weapon or anything, but he wore an outfit that allowed someone to respond in this irrational, overzealous way and if he had been dressed more appropriately, I think unless it’s raining out, or you’re at a track meet, leave the hoodie home.”
That’s right, he allowed Zimmerman to...

An American Werewolf in London
What a great movie! About the only time I watch TV anymore is for about 30 minutes as I hit the sack. Shawshank Redemption has been on a loop and I’ve already watched it twice. Otherwise, it’s rugby recordings or a Premier League match. Last night, however, I caught this on… it was on SyFy, which anything on cable is generally disappointing. But another example of a movie I...

Monsanto and friends in your kid's science class ... →
Yet another sickening display of propaganda, now an egregious brainwashing campaign geared towards your children. This is a great article. They break down the publisher of this garbage, naturally, you know who cuts their checks, as well as the lies this so-called activity book claims. This fight will never end.

Badass Salad!
It’s been a few since I talked food. I pulled this out of my arse the other day and figured it was worth passing along. Actually, I just wanted to eat it again, because it’s that good. Remember when I said I was cooking things in the skillet that probably had no bidness being near or inside a skillet… yeah, that’s still happening. Simple yet unconventional ingredient list:...

A few thoughts on a few things:
Wednesday, March 21, 2012 Seattle PD officer found not guilty of putting his boot into a prone, handcuffed man’s head. I’m not familiar with the case but the article mentions video evidence. Hmmm. So how is that a not guilty verdict? Still searching for the article mentioning the man’s head found guilty of striking the police officer’s foot. On a more serious note, a...

Thoughts on Rep. Paul Ryan's Budget Proposal:
It’s shit. All I needed to see to make this quick determination- no defense budget cuts. That’s the first and last thing I looked for. The 60-page proposal, in PDF format is here. Any proposal that does not include legitimate defense budget cuts not decreases in spending. Ah well…

The most important post you will read today.
In today’s America, we face a problem, which I can say without hesitation, is far more serious than any current issue publicized by any media. And we’re currently witnessing some pretty dire times. I’m talking about the food crisis. Crisis? Actually more like a pandemic at this point. The video below is not brand new. It’s a TED talk featuring Jamie Oliver from 2010....

Executive Order - National Defense Resources... →
And just when you thought the last gratuitous piece of legislation passed was the most egregious offense to the U.S. Constitution, Uncle Sam says, “Not so fast, peasant!” I mean, when is enough going to be enough? How many times am I going to ask when enough is going to be enough? It’s moments such as these that historians will look back to to answer why and how the American...

A few thoughts on a few things:
On this Saint Patrick’s Day, 2012, I, like any proud American with a majority Scottish descent, will wear blue and drink wine tonight! Although, we later found out there is some Irish mixed in there more recently than we had thought. I suppose everyone can say that to a certain extent. Hell, I’ve probably got some African somewhere down the line for all I know… Actually that is a...
