When the surreal becomes tangible, it is time to transition into a state of heightened awareness.

You are no longer immersed in a virtual realm, nor have you traversed the metaphorical 'looking glass' of Lewis Carroll.

Why do things appear simultaneously indistinct and vividly clear, as if visible for the first time?

We are navigating a period of profound transformation.

This is not the first instance of this planet propelling itself forward.

We will adapt to this era of rapidly evolving trends.

Fasten your seatbelts, open your eyes and minds.

Logic will serve as your guide, while your moral compass and capacity for compassion will illuminate the path forward.

Heed the counsel of your heart, as it navigates the complexities of the future.

Time will continue to unfold, yielding hope, happiness, and tranquility.

HAPPY FLAG DAY

May our flag be the unifying banner that brings us(a) together.

Many have fought for our star-spangled banner, with some having made the ultimate sacrifice.

This banner has flown over natural disasters, major sporting events, and the graves of our deceased loved ones.

We proudly wave this banner in support of our Olympic athletes.

It is prominently displayed on shirts, lapels, and various apparel, flown everywhere, and revered by all.

We pledge our allegiance to this banner, which represents the Constitution that outlines how our society is governed and respects the rights of all individuals.

This banner features red and blue hues, adorned with stars symbolizing each state in our United States.

It serves as a powerful symbol of protection for our nation, proclaiming 'Don't Tread on Me' – a message that applies to each and every one of us, regardless of color, gender, political affiliation, or origin.

This banner signifies unity, conveying the message that we stand together as the USa.

As we commemorate Flag Day, let us reflect on the significance of our banner – a symbol owned not by individuals, political affiliation, but by a NATION of people united in their commitment to democracy.

May the faith you hold dear protect the USA.

RX TO FEEL A BIT BETTER....

The world needs a good injection of love no matter where you live along the political spectrum. Come on we are humans after all...take your medicine like your momma used to tell you.

Maybe if we all just took a week of giving random hugs and pats on the back....we would all feel better and look at each other differently....

OK, add a smile for good measure too.

Why not? Nothing else is working after all.

Wait...even better share cookies too. It would help the economy----damn that is good idea if It's ok to say so myself.

Bring your dogs and cats too; give them a cookie too.

Can you help and get behind this perhaps funny and spirited idea?

It will make you feel better and me too. I spent last week in a hospital where everyone made me feel better.

Ok- we will call this give back week and it starts Monday!

Blow some sunshine my way too please.

Thank you for reading this message.

Do you feel a little bit better already?

Regardless of your political leanings, may our Nation see success,  peace, solice, prosperity and the means to be that g...

Regardless of your political leanings, may our Nation see success, peace, solice, prosperity and the means to be that guiding light on the hill.

We are a single Nation for all.

Amen.

A vote for the next four year term can have impact on the next two generations beyond Gen Alpha.

Translation....beyond 2050.

How important is that to you?

Life's like a movie, write your own ending...

Keep believing or just keep pretending...

BUT CHOOSE YOUR OWN ENDIND!

It is your choice how you vote, but vote...

Whatever the outcome is, that is the way you, me and us will then live...

Thanks Kermit the Frog for letting me paraphrase your song.

My name is not Forest Gump, but that's all I have to say...

I support and send
kind thoughts to all Floridians with your double hit. Be safe. Take cover.

May we not politicize disasters at any time.

This is all about helping our brothers and sisters and all of the giving and tireless first responders.

Americans are one in supporting each other during disasters.

On Saturday I will complete my 74th revolution of the Sun.

Time sure flies especially when one thinks about starting the 75th revolution, 3/4 of a century.

Many of my peers and loved ones never saw this benchmark.

But, without family, friends, classmates, colleagues; this ride would not have ever made my life what it turned out to be.

I accept the highs, lows and the in betweens.

But without you all, it would not have been the experience it has been.

So, thank you for reading my silly, sad, funny, sometimes dumb, philosophical and hopefully non partisan posts.

JAMES EARL JONES RIP

He passed away today. He was a man with a booming voice and pressence....

But he was also a terrible stutterer who managed to create a stellar career. He once said "stuttering never goes away, you just learn how to work around it!"

If you know of anyone who stutters, especially kids, tell them about the voice of the Lion King and Darth Vader. There is a future.

Jim Patrick
Life Long Stutterer

Most everyone remembers 'Pavlov's Theory' of the dog that salavated upon hearing a bell, assuming that a treat would follow. It is called 'Conditioned Response'.

We all realize that a parrot can be trained to replicate what a trainer repeatedly says to it over and over for an extended period of time.

Now three questions for the readers of this post.

Can humans react to repeated phrases to a point they believe it is truth even if it is false?

About that parrot; does it even understand what it is repeating over and over and over?

Is propaganda addictive, regardless of the source of origination?

Meet my Grandparents, Nicola and Maria Canino. They were immigrants from Southern Italy who did not speak more than basic English when they arrived.
They raised 5 kids who had kids who had kids.
Grandpa started working in the mines in Idaho and then worked as a switchman for Great Northern Railroad.
They taught us values and ethics, paid their taxes and help build America.
Then one glorious day, both became citizens that wove the cloth of America.
The son and sons-in-law all served in WW II and Korea.
The grandchildren were successful and they too contributed to America. I am sure many can repeat their own stories too.
Dreams can come true in America when we just embrace everyone's dreams.
How about posting a smile for my Grandparents and yours and everyone else's who sacrificed for this Nation?
We are one proud Nation.
