“Productive class Americans are sick of being menaced by [things] their parents naively thought were being created to protect them. They’re sick of being looted by officials with five and six-digit salaries. Sick of being decimated by one senseless war after another, arranged, conveniently, for almost every generation. Sick of being wooed and cast aside in two- and four- and six-year cycles by public figures they wouldn’t trust alone with their children. Doubtless the American productive class has made foolish choices in the past. Doubtless they’ll make them again in the future. But in the end, the American productive class will triumph, precisely because they ARE productive, while their enemies are not.” - L. Neil Smith |

By parading models that are near-anorexic size, they do humanity a disservice. Here in a I was personally shocked by the pictures and it brings into focus how, as usual, our thinking gets us into trouble. Haines ads, with “normal” people, full-figured guys and gals, is at least not buying into the nonsense. Our thinking – the paradigms of how we see the world and the memes of our group ideas – puts us at cross purposes with the Intelligent Designer’s plan. Hopefully, we can get back into alignment. |

Author : Joe Oefelein (1957) John I missed your 20070923 Jottings so I decided to look at the daily to see what was going on. Hope your computer gets well. I know the tribulations of attending to the sick PC. Fortunately mine was an easy cure. Regarding the reference to the mineral 'JASPER'. I wonder if any of our arts majors have thought of the possible market for JASPER jewelry Patents anyone? Joe O -57E {JR: On the daily blog, I needed a picture. All the pics of Brother Jasper had copyrights attached. So on a whim, I googled “jasper” and found out in wikopedia that “jasper is an impure form of quartz”. That tickled me for some reason. So I used their free Creative Commons picture of a “jasper”. That’s what JoeO57 is referencing. Any jewelers out there?} # # # # # |

*** begin quote *** TEHERAN - *** end quote *** Sigh. It’s modestly amusing when technology trumps repression. I guess if they think they can bottle up dissent, then it’s best that they try. Time, money, resources, and attention spent on that hopeless task is time, money, resources, and attention that can NOT be spent on “making trouble” outside their borders. The internet was designed to be like water that finds its way automagically around barriers. So throwing up one roadblock merely tells the network to route a different way. Like the Burmese Military Junta, who tried to silence dissent by cutting off the inet, they will find that the human spirit is indomitable. Freedom is one of those things that are as essential to life as air, water, and food. I pray for peace, but know that there will be eventually an insurrection. Slaves rebel. Eventually. There’s always that one straw that was just too much to bear. Wonder when it will come in the |
