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!

I Am Not Addicted

One of my
Grandchildren
stayed over this weekend
and if you have read my blog over the years you would know that I always say,
"Family comes first."
So instead of spending time on the computer,
I'm spending my time with him.
We had a really good time until he wanted to play
Monotony,
or I mean
Monopoly.
We still had a good time playing but I just don't like the game.
Ever since I was a wee little child.
It is the only board game that has been in every house that I have ever lived in
and I have never bought one of them!
Monopoly Star Wars The Mandalorian Baby Yoda Edition , new opened but unused | eBay
I know 
Baby Yoda 
is popular
but even he can't use his
Jedi Powers
on me so I like the game.
But,
I will play any board game with any of my
Children & Grandchildren
because it keeps them away from staring at their
Cell Phones,
Computer Screens,
or playing endlessly on their
Game Consoles!
If
and they are making millions by getting the average person to look at their tech,
there must be something wrong with it.
Yeah,
It's called
ADDICTION!
 
This is,
I Would Be Scrolling On My Phone Right Now
While Typing On My Computer
But My Phone Needs To Be Charged

And
 
I Am Not Addicted!


"Silicon Valley is no longer the valley of innovators who solve problems, it has turned into the valley of resourceful stupidity. They are a bunch of people wasting resources on creating products that do nothing more than fuel the predominant neurosis of consumerism."
- Abhijit Naskar -


That is my story and I am sticking to it!
