I had pleasant surprise this weekend in regard to the Iran war.  Instead of taking my analysis and interpreting it as pro or anti war they simply asked, “will anything we do in Iran improve the life of the average American”.  No tribal BS, no calling me either a warmonger for Israel or a idiotic lib-tarded hippy, just an honest and important question. I loved this question because it cuts right into the only reason we do shows like today’s.  Shows where we talk about at least some of the same things they talk about on AM radio talk shows.  … Continue reading →

Do a quick search on YouTube and you will find plenty of videos on this subject.  Some pretty useful but most are full of hype as they attempt to cram as many varieties of things into them as possible.  You will also find a great deal of “debunking” videos saying the entire practice is pointless and doesn’t work.  That just because a celery core grows some roots doesn’t mean you can get celery from it. In this case both sides sort of have a point.  Something really are not worth the effort even if minimal production can be acquired.  Some … Continue reading →

I want to lead off today and explain that I am talking about individual leadership vs. corporate or political leadership.  In fact it is the herd that follows such so called leadership.  Additionally Monday shows are often about current events and while today’s is not, it does apply to them. Consider that right now there are honestly two herds in existence.  One herd is blindly pro-war in spite of that particular demographic having called for less conflict for at least a decade.  They fall in behind one level of political, media and corporate leadership and toe the party line.  The … Continue reading →
