Good News / Bad News? Its a bit of both.

So as you all know the American economy is supposidly crashing. While i'm sure that is true, I've been there for years so I don't feel too worried about whats coming next.

So this article gave me some mixed feelings. I'm feeling Angry, Sad and of course Extremely frustrated at what seems to be the undercurrents of everything we had falling away. No doubt its going to be interesting what happens to us all after / when / if this all pans out. No doubt however that a revolution of ideals is coming to time. From my very little skilled platform of economics, isn't this all how the economic market is supposed to work? The biggest and sloppiest of companies gets sloppy and bloated and falls apart. While smarter and sometimes smarter littler companies have the chance to flurish and take up the slack.

I'm not so sure however that this is the end of the world as we know it. If it is, well just my as well get it over with. My opinion is that we are ready for another growth spurt in how we evolve as a nation and as a world.

comments are welcome and so are informed opinions. These are my views on it and I'm not easily swayed by opinion so I'm still not and won't vote McCain. LOL.

that may be another post one of these days.

I'm gonna need some help from a different point of view...

Is CNN Getting Kicked Out of Russia?

By Yasha Levine, eXiled Online. Posted September 12, 2008.



From reading the article I think I see why CNN would have cut Putin's speach out at the end. I think I'm aware that we have the warships off the georgian coast and all. But how does buying gas from Russian Exactly save us money? And I don't for one really.. REally want to go into another war as I hear on some websites indicating that the possible NEW VP wants to go in there and Defend Georgia.

I dunno about anyone else, but. Do we really need another war in the world right now? Really?

I mean.. I've seen the movies.. I know the outcome. I don't like the prospect of going to war again with Russia. We cant even handle the 2 we have going now.

Oh..and the war on education, the war on this the war on that. Have we ever thought enough is enough? Do we really need to haul out the big guns to remind us why we all have to get along?

If you disagree with me Please show me the light :) I hate politics and this is why.

Lasers on... Atom Smashing to begin in a month or so.

Ok all, I know you are all dissapointed that the LHC hasn't ended the world today ( Wednesday 9/10/2008) but if you are really worried there is always that 12/21/2012 event that marks the end of the world.

So I was reading up more on this and MSNBC has been running a good series of aritcles and here is the latest that I was reading on that I think may shed some light on whats going to go on within the worlds newest biggest Microscope.

This is why I want to shoot my TV.




The man the myth the legend. Dan Rather goes off on telling us That journalism, Real journalism stops at the buck being made. I would recommend taking at least 6 min out of your spoonfed "Celebrity Debates" or trailer park teen moms battling ghetto teen moms in jello specials to really step back and think. After watching this I really don't regret having cable TV encourage the ROT that is pushed across the airwaves into my home. After all is said and done, if I'm going to be doing the damage, its going to be me who was the one looking for it ala the internet because I was curious, instead of Faux news or NBC/ABC/CBS or whatever meganational news corp shoving their bloated form of crap down my throat and into my ears.

For this I say Good, its about damned time. Stand up for yourselves and say enough is enough! The change for the nation cannot come from the outside, no matter the shucking off of bad to or taking of good from. The change is for you to deal with what you have and make what you have better. From what I know of Mexico which may be very little, it is a proud nation. Drug kingpins and Cartells are not the one I really want to imagine of Mexico nor one of slum run down toxic dump of chemical and human life. I was mentioning to Pablo the other day about an article related to traffic and from there I think I remember him asking or stating rather that we had an awesome form of transportation in the world. I accept the fact that we have a lot of stuff that is better than most of the world, but my comment back as I pointed towards an image on the computer of an intersection of steel, rubber, toxic compounds of Hydrocarbons and petrolium based products and our own carbon based life form thrown into that mix. That as soon as I accept traffic like that to be the norm, than I am no better than that. Still pointing towards the massive amounts of backed up traffic I belive in India or some other Asian metropolis. I am better than that Pablo and I hope that we all realize that we are better than that. That is why I choose to work and live here, because I don't want to accept traffic and living conditions like that.

Ending my little introspective political rant that I really didn't want to get on but did :) Damn you Mexico and your braveness of finally standing up and saying Enough!! I applaud you!! I raise a glas of Negra Modello to you and now try to get my own sheeple to start thinking about enough is enough over in their own Front yards.
