Meh. Good enough. Wasn’t really directing that at you or anyone in particular.

It just seems to get under folks skin too much. Giving away power. Taking away happiness unnecessarily.

Personally I found it interesting the last remaining man on an all black unit that attacked Omaha Beach passed today given the history and the challenges faced at the time as well as today. But I don’t care if anyone else does.

And I’m not trying to get in to anything in the 500. I just think some things that are not politics get treated as such due to the charged political environment.

I didn’t take it as you coming at me or anyone. It was simply a good on-ramp to do a deeper share with an example, for those who truly don’t understand the frustration felt for those of us who see the ripping apart of the country through culture wars.

Let’s split everybody into two sides (check)
Let’s promote division and have our thoughts echo chambered back to us through MSNBC or Fox. (check).
Let’s energize and radicalize the members of each side so we have villains to fight. (Check).

Next up? Probably another power grab from the fed with some slickly worded laws targeting the rising anger on the right, while the left loses battle after battle in the Supreme Court.

That should get us to our destination. Sectarian violence.

We are the strongest country on the planet. Only we can beat us. Or weaken us to the point of collapse, and then another country can finish us off.

Our time to knock this **** off is running out.

Did Al Jolson rap? If so what category would it have fallen in?

Blondie's Rapture hit #1 in January 1981.



Beastie Boys credit denied

While a rap song, I don't know that Blondie is generally thought of as a "rapper." I'm reclaiming credit. Though I suppose could be argued B-Boys is a rap group vs solo artist rapper. Not sure where that leaves it all. Too early. Brain hurt

Morning, peoples

Easiest way to win a culture war is flip everyone the bird and don't acknowledge that there is a culture war... because there's not.

See, now you're getting it.

Valid point. Although I prefer the Beastie's music over Blondie's, I'll still stick with my nomination for this topic.

I'd vote twice to deny Vanilla Ice from contention especially if we add "artist" as a qualifier.

What's up?
Heading out to the lap pool for a bit. Wife and son are walking a trail at the Wekiva State Forrest, just a couple miles from here. Then off to the mall for reverse shopping and then on to the grocery (Publix).

Got my buddy Jeff's beach condo, 48 miles door-to-door, until November 1, when he comes home for the fall here in Central Florida. In the meantime, I have the only key to his condo. 1,700 sq, ft. facing the ocean.

Trying to talk wife into five days off work or to work a bit from the condo on her lap top, so we can take something like nine nights at the beach!

Part of it for me is it is tearing the country apart. I dedicate five minutes total each day for local and national news.
During that five minutes this morning. One of the stories was the first African American ever to win the Scrpps? Spelling Bee.

Why is that relevant? If anything, it’s insulting.
What are they trying to get at?
See, black people can spell too?…….
Are we to celebrate in the streets?
Are we supposed to hold a parade?

When people talk about unconscious bias and racism in this country, this is what they're talking about... you're angry that it's being pointed out that the first Black child in 96 years won the spelling bee? You think that's divisive?

Did you know that less than one lifetime ago black people weren't allowed to go to school with white people? That happened... in this country... less than one lifetime ago...

The repercussions of those decades upon decades of black people being legally and socially persecuted have not suddenly disappeared, no matter how badly you want them to be gone...
