  • Clowns. I told you so.

    Clowns. I told you so.

    the clownIt’s been happening lately, and it will happen more unless they are stopped.  That’s right.  Clowns.  Clown sightings on the East Coast of the United States have police miffed, and now Stephen King, author of the famous evil clown book, It, has now acknowledged that he is fearful that this is happening.

    It makes you scratch your head, always – what do they want?  Nothing good, I can tell you, that’s for sure.  If they were honest and not creepy, then they would not paint their faces and wear clown suits.  They would just be regular people with regular clothes.  But no, they have to dress up in disguise.  I’m telling you, they are up to something.  They are just like the squirrels.  They might be related.  Ask Lucy.

    I’m telling you.  Seriously.  It may start with a few clown sightings, but if they cannot get this under control, we could have a big problem.  Be alert.  Be wary.

    Carry something that you can use to distract them in case of encounter.  Never speak directly to them.  And by all means, NEVER make eye-contact.  Run like hell!  Far far away, as fast as you can, get away, into the light of day and scream for help and for someone to catch them!  Get them into the shower and take off that dreadful make-up.  If it does not come off, then… well, I’m not sure what that means…if it doesn’t come off.

    This has me truly worried.  Clowns.  Sends a chill up my spine… and, oh, I TOLD YOU SO.

     

  • he’s gone. whew!

    he’s gone. whew!

    car-wreck

    “The Donald” came and went through our town last night.  After causing traffic congestion, heat exhaustion and one broadcasted arrest, he departed and went on his way to spread “evil-dust and ill will” throughout the nation of haters that are his fans.

    Moving right along, it was poetic drama to see the image of a car wreck with the headliner “Protesters gather outside Trump rally in The Woodlands” on our local news station’s news feed.

    He is indeed a “car wreck”… more like a “train wreck” or worse.

    We hope that he is not voted in.  If he is, the implications could be enormous.  He could ruin our nation as he has ruined his other “businesses” by his impulsive nature, his inability to control his tongue, and his drive to incite anger in people, and for that he gets A++ on his report card – and this is not a good thing.

  • it doesn’t matter – nobody cares about that – the tangled web

    it doesn’t matter – nobody cares about that – the tangled web

    “It doesn’t matter – nobody cares about that…”  Gosh what words. Oh the tangled web we weave… Apathy, one of the world’s most dangerous emotions…

    Here lately, it seems that what we have here is a failure to communicate.  I think that I am saying one thing but the receiver comes out with a response that indicates that what I said doesn’t seem to come through as what I said.  Uh-oh.  This worries me.  Saddens me actually, because when you read the news, the whole world seems to be flying out of control at its center.  The gravity seems to not be working so well anymore.

    I wonder…should I rapidly ditch all the people who purport ridiculous things – the haters out there – and yet… what they do, and how they act, make me feel hateful at times.  Ah.  This is it.  This is where I have to stop myself in my tracks and correct the course of my own behavior.

    Yup.  And this, my friends, is not taught to the wee ones much anymore.  The trend is to let people – even encourage people – to say what is on their minds to anyone, and if they don’t listen, well then, it’s okay to threaten, and hey, in their minds, it’s seeming okay to get a gun that will mow down as many people in as short a period of time as possible.  Where has the lesson on keeping yourself in check gone?  Who ripped that chapter out of the books?

    I know anger.  I know rage.  I understand how it feels.  But, I feel regretful for those times that I did act out – and my acting out pales by comparison to the acts of those who, here lately, have been engaged in some major acting out – this is world class disaster category acting out.  And it gives a bad name to a religion that really isn’t for that, any more than any other major world class religion.

    To me, it’s bad behavior, bad manners, and a lack of self-control –  this is because someone did not teach their kids how to manage anger properly.  If someone is raised by an angry person or angry people, then they will consider this to be normal.  This is a problem.  Are we becoming an endangered species?  There was that post last year…

    Anger moves to rage, and that rage is what makes people do unspeakable things.  I think that we need to think about it in these terms, because truly, all this blaming, doesn’t really give anyone a solution – and violence is not a part of the solution – it just creates more rage.

    Encourage others to take personal responsibility for their feelings – by taking personal responsibility of your feelings and don’t stuff them until they burn – calmly consider what they mean, and try to process them without killing people.  Please.  Take a deep breath…
