REEMERGENCE

Just like the forest after the fire, or the rebirth of the trait or species after its supposed or actual extinction; or history fortunately (or unfortunately ) repeating itself as the result of lessons learned or forgotten, the human species has a chance, perhaps, to redeem itself when threatened with the inevitability of global climate change after the COVID-19 pandemic towards a sustainable future (or not) The choices we make today may affect the future of all.

Make your choices.

or Pick your poison.

Sorry Simon, for once I have to disagree with you. I don't think Cult of Delusional Narcissism is a good theme. But it would be a great title for a song. I know all the lemmings would listen to it.













Scratch that. On further consideration I actually think that is a perfect theme (Sorry Lemmings).

You sir, are a genius!

Hey, Flying Monkey.....

I seem to remember a song by a rock group called Living Color,called "Cult of Personality" that folks listened to some years back that's similar to what you're thinking.

And yes, you're right -- Simon IS a genius. He may piss some people off but he forces ALL of us to THINK. Those who don't think tend to become sheeple who never learn.
