About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

Stop Complaining

Sorry that I haven't written for a while,
I have been feeling under the weather.
It has nothing to do with COVID-19.
I have been tested and I'm good.
It's because my mind thinks I am 20 years old still but my body isn't.
I wear myself down sometimes.
But I am fine now.
*****
What I want to talk about is people who complain about the media!
First of all,
it is not the business of the media to please everyone.
By nature of the job
and format,
it is to report what is happening in the world around you.
People complain that every media outlet have their own agenda.
Of course they do.
They are run by human beings
and human beings have preconceived prejudices that affect their train of thought.
No matter how hard they try to be impartial,
a person's upbringing
and life experiences dictate how they report the news.
Now people search the internet for their news,
not to find out what is happening in the world,
but to reaffirm their preconceived notions on how the world is.
Even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
For me,
I never forgot those famous words spoken by a wise old man,
who told the world;
I'm paraphrasing;
"There are buttons on your radio and television where you can turn it off if you don't like something!"
This is,
Stop Complaining And Turn The Channel If You Don't Like Something.
Somebody Else Just Might And You Don't Have The Right To Force Your Views On Them
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“The IQ and the life expectancy of the average American recently passed each other in opposite directions.”
- George Carlin -


That is my story and I am sticking to it!
