THE COMEBACK:

WHY WON’TYOU SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO ME?

IF I REALLY WANTED TO LISTEN TO AN ASS I WOULD HAVE FARTED.

THE MESSAGE:

We should always be aware of the world around us. In University I was urged to read as many books as possible on as many different subjects as possible. There were some influential people in my life who tried to steer me in the right direction.

Some of the recommended books were beyond my understanding, patience or interest level at the time. So I graduated with a somewhat limited library.

Today the Internet is a terrific tool to aid in my quest for self-enlightenment. I look at today's complicated world with its wars, social systems, racial divisions, religious pursuits, economic policies, various movements, widespread hunger, lack of individual freedom, corrupt governments, dictatorships, heroes, cowards, closed minds, greedy bastards trying to dupe innocent or uneducated minds into accepting their pitches, etc. Then I realize that my petty concerns listed below are just that, PETTY!

Baby Mommas need guidance. Babies need a father.

Politicians particularly Canadian Senators are full of Excrement.

Drivers blocking the passing lane need a lesson.

It is imperative that I learn to accept the advice that my dear mother gave me sixty years ago, "Don't you worry about it if you can't make it better!" Right Mom! Of course I have ideas and dreams about how I could improve this world if only I was the supreme commander.

THE MUSIC:

THE STONE PONIES WITH LYNDA RONSTADT> DIFFERENT DRUM

THE STUFF:

Failing my appointment to supreme commander, I decided that instead of joining public protests or ridiculing them, I would concentrate on the following:
