History . . .

. . . just in case you are local. . . 

. . . but possibly even is you are not . . .


Our youngest is seeing a new doctor, about his back problems, who is located on Highland Avenue and Boston Street. The building is called the Atlantic Southwestern Broom Company. As soon as you walk into to the lobby, there are photos to your right from the building’s days as a broom factory.  One of the first photos you see is THIS ONE . . . (it's actually an uncle of ours who literally, not the current 'literally' but the literal 'literally', walked from his house up the hill (the street is a steep decline, or incline depending upon your perspective) every day to work.  A sweetheart of a guy, by the way . . .

Shouts . . .

Shouts in the street

I hear them as I'm walking home

Shoes on my feet

Touch down and take off as I roam


Dreams lifted up

So many pies in the sky

U-flying-o's

I duck them as they fly on by


Tomorrow takes care of itself

Today has its trial and its call

Janus he waits at your door

Rising or breaking his fall

You've got your "Time"

And secrets that love has betrayed

The long yellow line down your spine

That your feeling has frayed


Take my hand we may see

Everything we mean to be


When we meet again

Should it be under blanket of night?

All that remains

Is the matter of choice in disguise


Take my hand we may see

Everything we mean to be

Am I with you or you with me?

We have our time then take our leave


Deep in the heart

Where paradox finds its resolve

Long bodies live

They've learned how to bend to absolve


Now desire is the tie

That holds us fast to life

For the sweetness of the honey

Risk the peril of the hive


Now I'm running through your veins

In exchange I know your pain

All the lies have run aground

And to this earth I'm bound

Profiling . . .

. . . our politicians . . .


(from No One Left To Lie To; The Values of the Worst Family by Christopher Hitchens)
". . . Two full terms of Clintonism and of "triangulation" and of loveless dogged bipartisanship, reduced the American scene to the point where politicians had become to politics what lawyers had become to the law: professionalized parasites battening on an exhausted system that had lost any relationship to its original purpose (democracy or popular sovereignty in the first instance; justice or equity in the second). The permanent political class and its ancillaries held all the cards by the 2000 campaign, controlled all the money, decided on all the predigested questions in all the manipulated polls. They did their job almost too well, leaving insufficient room for illusion and inadequate grounds for maintaining any steady or principled party allegiance. As a result, the only realists were the cynics. And this in turn permitted some alarming honesties to be committed in public. . ."

Time . . .

. . . heals all wounds . . . or SHOULD it?  (not in vengeance, but in pursuit of truth)


(http://www.cbsnews.com/news/elizabeth-warren-questions-hillary-clintons-dnc-hack-response/)
". . . Sen. Elizabeth Warren is calling an email hack of the Democratic National Committee an embarrassment for the party and the country. . . (Warren) also said she doesn't understand why Hillary Clinton has given former party chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz a role in her campaign. . . Wasserman Schultz will serve as honorary chair of her (Clinton's) campaign's 50-state program to help elect Democrats. . ."

True . . .

. . . or not (just can't trust everything you read on the internet), it sure is funny!!


(Thanks to http://www.rawstory.com/2014/02/tom-delay-people-keep-forgetting-that-god-wrote-the-constitution/)
“I think we got off the track when we allowed our government to become a secular government,” DeLay explained. “When we stopped realizing that God created this nation, that he wrote the Constitution, that it’s based on biblical principles.”

Caught . . .

Caught in the crosshairs
of my poison-dart marauding rifle
Of course what can a body do
You’re not the man you used to be
You say with certain relish
But still you’re here with me today

And though you surely cannot  hide
You’ll try to run for cover
And I will follow where you go
As we perpetuate the dance
We’ve done through all the ages
Ours is much more than just a show

Bought my ticket
Took time off for the
Drama of life
Drama of life
Drama of life
Front row orchestra
Tails, tux just for the
Drama of life
Drama of life
Drama of life

Some choose their circumstances
With a dearth of careful thinking
Some can’t make any choice at all
But all the options must be weighed
Outcomes evaluated
And for the joy you must add salt

Bought my ticket
Took time off for the
Drama of life
Drama of life
Drama of life
Front row orchestra
Tails, tux just for the
Drama of life
Drama of life
Drama of life

Take an intermission
Look at what you’re missing

It’s not a natural
Or a simple kind of understanding
Half-heartedness won’t make it so
To rise above self-serving
Vanities makes all the difference
Sometimes that’s all you need to know

Bought my ticket
Took time off for the
Drama of life
Drama of life
Drama of life
Front row orchestra
Tails, tux just for the
Drama of life
Drama of life
Drama of life


Caught
