This image or one similar has appeared on my site since it's inception in 2003. I average

about five hours a week in viewing and have done so all my life. I do not see television in it's

evolution over my sixty years as a vast wasteland of infantile self-satisfaction as much as I see programing the equivalent of using a bulldozer to fix a wiring issue.

Emeritus professor at the University of Bologna, where he taught for much of his life.

If you asked me what the most popular misconception about television is;

I would say that people think it makes you smart and famous.

Read this entire site.

It might not make you famous, it could help you exponentially in the smarts department.

I stopped counting exponentially at 22, that was a few years ago.

Junior High Civics Study Guide

Minor Discrepancy

If you were to point out the Hague from a neutral place, such as Salt Lake City Utah, you would be at a location that suffers discrimination from at least two continents - Europe, from which the Mormons fled, and the United States, where the Mormons have settled.

If you were to point out the Hague from a place in Russia such as Sochi, you would again be pointing from a place that suffers discrimination from at least two different continents, the United States whom have forgotten WWII, and Europe where westward

expansion by Russia is financially impractical and morally repugnant.

The exception would be: Russians do not flee. Ever.

Elementary Civics Test

1. Circle the real Representative.

2. True or false- 'Pyrrhic Victory' is on NBC after the 'Late Show'.

3. 'Art Of The Deal' was written by:

A) Jack Courac

B) Rudy Guilanni

C) outsourcing

D) Donald Trump

4. True or false. A 'clinically supported regimen' could include Quaalude.

5. True or false. This represents an accurate depiction of what was posted on the Blog page in late May.

I flunked the Republican party for basic Civics this year. Mostly for morally vacant dogma, in part for flagrant disregard

of basic Constitutional issue. Corporations are not represented in the Constitution. Constituents are.

Beyond that, it is the traditional end of the school year. My joy in the lack of school shootings the past seven months is

tempered by other losses of life.

The entire Class of 2020 will be passed despite the lockdown. What could the

Republican's elementary school teachers possibly have as a comparable excuse?

Nothing this government is doing would pass an elementary civics class.

People ask me if I served, I tell them yes - 15 years. Then I wait for that quizzical look because that's an odd number.

1960 to 1975 to be exact, born in a military hospital at Davis Monthan, as a dependent. Still serving, but not usually

required to salute. Always required to fall in line. So, it is to my credit the discipline instilled in me. And yeah, fuck flying.

That honor remains, despite TPD's best efforts.

The thing about the military that is such a dichotomy from civilian life is the concept of taking only what you are given.

This rings true with modern computing. When computer intellect exceeds your own, learn to take what your given.

At the very crux, the nexus, the absolute center of that ideal is intellect and reason are unified.

(More precisely, intellect and reason are two very important facets of Epistemology (the study of truth).

And again, more Philosophy than I want to discuss given the current state of affairs. (Hi,Condi!)

So ask yourself;

Is interfering with something (anything)

smarter than you really the best choice?

President Putin is gonna enjoy this...

"We don't want to bail out states that are poorly run."

Actually yes - you do, and you have been doing it for decades.

Gulf War 1991

The cost of the war to the United States was calculated by the US Congress in April 1992 to be $61.1 billion (equivalent to $100 billion in 2018).[254] About $52 billion of that amount was paid by other countries: $36 billion by Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and other Arab states of the Persian Gulf; $16 billion by Germany and Japan (which sent no combat forces due to their constitutions). About 25% of Saudi Arabia's contribution was paid with in-kind services to the troops, such as food and transportation. US troops represented about 74% of the combined force, and the global cost was therefore higher.

Wiki

Did you catch that last line, where it says 'Your Military'? Your Congress too, if you want them.

Okay, I'll bite; no more supporting failed states, like Syria or South Korea or

-spin the globe and stick a pin, because we are doing that everywhere.

Particularly so when Republicans wave their flags and tell everyone they

are overspending on the fight against Covid.

Dollar for Dollar, it appears Kuwaiti lives are worth more than American ones.

Putin- he laugh'n. Translation: It does not appear to matter whom is elected next.

To President Putin's credit, he went on Russian television a while back and declared he

would no longer support failed Russian States (the Baltic's ect.)

Also, to my credit,

Alexei Nevalny is the perfect setup for the simplest of minds. Making Putin a patsy. To my

knowledge Russia believes this is the best President they have had in the last Century.

The Russian Constitution was just amended for what appears to be his final term.

Best looking motive to me would be the act of some failing state.

Afterthought -

The Chinese wonder if it might be a good idea

to sell those Stealth Planes (and Stealth Helicopters)

to the Iraqi's. Not gonna be of much use elsewhere.

Go ahead - introduce yourself ! (even if you stutter)

A good day at the races. It doesn't matter if you won or you finished eleventh.

A good day at the races is defined as a day when nobody dies.

I could not get my mother to understand - when you die racing you are going to do so doing what you love,

so many never do, and more than million world-wide did not die doing what they loved, but of Covid.

Hot Dogs, Popcorn, and a Skybox

The 104th. annual Indianapolis 500.

Free form. The order of the day, the race this year, humanity in general, and this essay. I have always

believed the term 'free thinking' as synonymous with 'eclectic'. But here is the entire human race, in

a free thinking mode, fighting to survive. Gone are the rote traditions that we cling to as a reassurance

to our mundane daily routine. And here were are, attending one of America's most enduring traditions.

A message from the new track owner Roger Penshi

I cannot recall ever having missed a race, so my streak is at 59. Not attending in person, but on the

shortwave radio, or on AM radio, or a network broadcast. One way or another, attending live, every year.

A tradition that holds me to my faded youth, my parents, grandparents and extended family. Just a tradition.

This year will mark the closest Detroit has ever come to having a defined foothold on the Speedway.

With new ownership by whatshisname, with a long history of ties with Detroit, they inch closer to

securing ridiculously repetitive and free advertising. So, as the Andretti's thank Honda, so should you.

Like the networks, the 'BIG THREE' brings a very different meaning to competition.

Please, enjoy the race. Hope to see you next year.

There is, by design, a little 'Back home in Indiana' in this picture.

Roger Penske with his companies valued at around 1.7 Billion, now own the Speedway. Let's hope they get it right the first time around.

Normal attendance is anywhere from 250,000 to 350,000. Tradition, or what little there is left of it is expensive this year.

My admiration and respect to those in attendance this year. Hoosiers, have a great race, and be sure to get

every last bit of corn in this year, and say hi to those folks from Iowa if you happen to see them.

McPaper-ed

I have no intention of discussing the American Press on this page, a discussion on Dr. Fauci is in order, on more than one point. That

the McPaper (USA Today) would print that kind of trash is not a surprise, not any more than my expletive laden reaction. Is it enough ?

Is it enough to suffer through the pandemic? Not for the press.

If you actually read yesterdays article, and I suspect a portion of my audience (excluding the press) can actually read. There is no

valid claim for argument against the NIH or Dr. Fauci.

Thank you, Mr. Big Deep Generous Pockets.

Our nations two most respected and world renowned experts on infectious disease have both spoken on exactly the same subject in the same week.

Over the weekend Sir Gates spoke of the need to apply the vaccine to the most impoverished nations (Hint, that's not Navarro).

Dr. Fauci (in the article below):

"People think “this is a race for one winner. Me, I’m cheering every one of them on,” said Fauci, who directs NIH’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

“We need multiple vaccines. We need vaccines for the world, not only for our own country.”

Around the world, governments are investing in stockpiles of hundreds of millions of doses of the different candidates, in hopes of speedily starting inoculations if any are proven to work."

Get a fucking clue Navarro and USA Today, neither of you give a shit about anything but yourselves. As long as we are on that subject:

Are the vaccinations a donation, or another instrument of Republican global manipulation?

I remember exactly where I was standing when I received my Polio shot in 60's,

and I specifically remember our government being big enough and wealthy enough to pay for it.

As overjoyed as I am to share this news (it was in the local section);

What the hell? Did or didn't the Administration know this last Friday when they

announced the reopening of schools...

Very stable genius, continued.

Having viewed this commercial more times than necessary, I realized recently;

Humans have a rote tendency to engage in the belief that they can manipulate computers, as opposed to

engaging in the operation of a function (s).

'Modern computing' is learning. When humans learn, so do computers.

Any average 'very stable genius' would understand and make these distinctions.

Memo:

To: Prime Minister Johnson

Likely a philosophy to that statement, dammed if I can find it.

07/06

Mount Rushmore is a centerpiece to our National Parks, a national preserve to PREVENT encroachment.

A system designed by respectable Presidents (hadn't seen much of that in my lifetime) to ensure and preserve our nations beauty.

A celebration of our nation's independence is separate from a highly disrespected media celebrity encroaching on respectability.

In lay words, the National Park System is designed to prevent you from laying claim to a land you don't value.

Pretending it should enhance a tarnished image only validates it existence.

Yes, you are reading that correctly.

More than twice the computing power of Summit.

We all know the facts, when people argue that the unemployed are receiving too much, we look to the Cayman Islands for the money?

We look at the long lines in the BMW dealership? We look to the golf courses for overcrowding? Cut the bullshit.

The money is in an American bank, or an American mortgage, or an American store.

This argument is led by someone desperate for re-election, someone who owns a Caribbean island, with a net worth in Billions.

Ancillary discussion:

You don't listen to me anyway, and you haven't listened to Kissinger either.

China is not going to respond to "Liberal Owned" media outlets and they damn sure are not going to respond to "Republican Owned" stations like Fox whom is making scurrilous claims about a foreign medical community like China, or Lessor Timor;

or Puerto Rico-which as about as far from Republican media as any other solar system.

Unlike Americans, most countries don't air their laundry in a white house press room.

If China and more specifically the government would listen to any American and

perceive their words as sincere, it will be Dr. Kissinger.
