Out Of Step

Ever get the feeling you’re the only one in the world with their head on “right?” Well, for me, today is just one of those days.

For the past few years I’ve been undergoing a rather aggressive regimen of a rather “traditional” therapy. And I just had a “dose” of that therapy. Anyway my therapist and I have been talking about a new avenue of therapy her and her husband have recently been exploring. Last week she was supposed to email me with further details regarding it, in the form of a web address I assume, but, since then, she has informed me they have been looking at different “sources” for the “technique.”

Honestly I’m not entirely sure of what she is looking at or for that matter hoping to accomplish. But I’m always open to looking at variety, especially where my therapy is concerned. If it makes sense to me.. Continue reading Out Of Step

You’ll never find ANY of the stories featured there, since Monday at least, on mainstream television. And that does, in fact shatter the practice of modern journalism. Typical! Do yourself a favor and check it out…

Now I should state, before next week rolls around and it’s the Republican’s turn, I don’t think any better of the Republicans. Actually my thoughts concerning a “Neo-Conservative’s” racist, sexist and homophobic idea of “democracy” is worse. A lot worse.

But, to be fair both parties are contributing to the death of civilization and this planet in a shockingly similar way…

Barack “Punk Rock” Obama?

I had to look at this much more than once. More than twice. A third didn’t hurt. But I’m not one bit closer to understanding it. Truly bizarre…

“NOFX are headlining the opening of the Democratic National Convention at Red Rocks in Denver, Colorado this Friday, August 22nd. To celebrate Barack “Punk Rock” Obama’s nomination, NOFX will perform Punk in Drublic in its entirety and in order.” Continue reading Barack “Punk Rock” Obama?
