Are you a...

...bang your head against the wall type of conservative? Used to listen to Sean Hannity for awhile but stopped, I understand he's for the War and all but I was worried there for awhile, he's one of those Ann Coulter type conservatives who can't seem to accept the fact that there's so many different kinds of political views out there let's just accept it and live with each other, doesn't mean you have to lose your passion though, just keep it in perspective. Take Coulter's books, of course her first one was funny, forget the title but it probably went along the lines of Liberals are Stupid and We're All Good but she's churned out like 10 books now and the formula never changes. I myself, being older in Life now, gotta watch the high blood pressure, hating is so yesterday which is why I have Laura Ingraham linked up to my blog. Passionate and conservative, highly intelligent and yet she can totally disagree with a big-time lib and yet say "but we still like them." She's the type of rightie you might accidentally catch in the Mall one day having a cup of java with Al Franken in the Food Court. Dunno, I'm just tired of banging my head against the wall my whole life. I don't want Hill as president but I'm with Beth on this one, the Sun will still rise the next day and we'll all go about our everyday lives.

    I've been noticing this. Blogs you can edit but not comments apparently, bugs me sometimes. Remember asgardshill from Hannity? say what you will about him he was an impeccable speller, I always remember that about him. Gotta be careful w/those f-words like "blue-funk mood."

    Of course my next blog could pose the question "which country would you most prefer to move to should Hillary win?" It's even a good question on its own, which country would you most like to live in if you didn't live in America? I know America's the greatest even with all our problems but I was thinking England, sure they're a bit stuffy and socialistic but they have a legally mandated tea-time to break up the workday, far more enlightened than us workaholics. Incidentally if you work in Japan with no days off is calling in sick really calling in sick or just giving yourself what should be your day off, like in this country if you only have one day off a week and you call out you're really giving yourself a second day off which somebody told me was the LAW anyway but everyone makes such a big deal about it like "oh, I heard you weren't feeling well the other day", well maybe, maybe not, just trying to uphold the law is one way of looking at it.

    How about Canada?

    You know you have a point, it's quite beautiful up there but would I have to learn French? Also, I could cross the border in no time to visit this great country of ours whenever I want. On the down side I hear they're very socialistic and pc, like if you tell a gay joke you could get locked up for a hate crime, also abortion policy very liberal but then again look at us. You're not too far from Canada yourself Beth. Canada has also produced some of the world's best singers, Celine Dion and Sarah McLachlan.

    Of course there is talk of joining Canada and Mexico with the USA into a new country, so then we'd be right back where we started.

    Maybe primitive peoples are more happy than us, who knows? It's like I've driven my whole life and there were also times I went without a car and took public transportation. I don't need all the luxuries and amenities of life and you'd save a whole lot on car insurance not to mention gas. My car is still young but when it comes time to get a new one who knows? Tropical islands, lots of coconut juice, catching your own fish like in that Tom Hanks movie "Outcast", I mean "Castaway."

    Notice how I didn't think of procratinating on packing my bags? Priorities!

    I could live on pineapple, bananas and cocnut, yum!

    I've done an hour of work, time for a break, lol.

    the simple life, that's what's missing. It's like in so many workplaces today you have to be a psychologist too, lol.

    I've also been thinking about the homeless, how stressful that must be but then again many of them read stuff in libraries all day and become quite literary, many of them are intelligent to talk with so even if you were a bag lady we could wander the streets together and then get a cup of coffee in Barnes & Noble.

    I don't suppose people need Zoloft on a tropical island.

    But you know the profit motivation being as strong as it is if enough people decide to live on these islands there will be a nice little drug store smack dab in the middle of the island,

    Starbucks too,

    and before you know it some deviant will put up a factory and everybody will have to clock in every morning at 1/2 past 6.

    Perhaps the real tropical island away from reality will only exist in our heads.

    Which is why people take drugs I guess but the real tropical island apparently God has set up for us, takes a little time rowing your boat there. Maybe when you're around 67 you can make out a little dark shape in the mist,

    like my imagery?

    You know while we're on the topic the Book of Genesis is interesting though. In the original Paradise there was no work or need to, HE wanted it that way but after the Sin everything changed. One thing's fer sure, God ain't no Republican (don't jump on me for this, just a joke).

    Yes, Z, I always like your imagery, which is why I think you'd write one hell of a book if you wanted to. But I am gathering that you have no desire to write one, so I will let it go.

    You know how hard it is to get published sometimes? My brother who's a wonderful graphic artist wrote a whole children's story about the undersea world with a whole bunch of illustrated characters, if you saw it you'd be blown away, and a publisher said no thanks. I guess if he had a dolphin handing out rubbers it might've had a shot and yet you see loads and loads of mediocre work imo on the shelves of Barnes & Noble and Borders (scratches head).

    I guess you are right, but you'd be good at it, maybe you could go on a book signing tour to Cleveland someday then, lol.

    Of course if I get in there with Judith Regan I'll wind up on Charlie Rose discussing my tome.
