Don’t waste your hate on me …it’s not my sock.

I just simply suggested that you stop feeding him.

... Did you know that the squadron that shot down the most German planes during the Battle of Britain, the 303 was composed entirely of Polish pilots and led by a Canadian? Amazing tidbit of learning. Many more available on Youtube.
And later, what had the Germans usually turning tail and fleeing upon sight, were the red-tailed planes of the Tuskegee Airmen. Competence and effort. Just to make it clear you'd better clear off, red was used on other parts too.
And what's more, one of these fabled pilots even shot down a Me-262, the operational Getman jet fighter late in the war., These were truly amazing men.

If you don’t want to click on the link… trust me… I get it. Kind of sad.


So here it is in text form.

It’ll shine when it shines by Ozark Mountain daredevils.

The ol' cat on the roof
He could stand a little push
'Cause he's got nine good lives to live

But like my Mama said
You only live 'til your dead
And you got to give and give and give

There's a pebble in the pond
Rollin' on and on
Makin' waves and tides and ripples and rain

There's a leaf in the wind
That don't know where to end
Chasin' days and ways and wishes and dreams

Seems like everyone is out lookin' for the sun
Singin' rain and pain on he who hesitates
But it'll shine when it shines
You might think I'm wastin' time
But I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait

Whippoorwill's in the dawn
Pretty soon he'll be gone
And he's got one good song to sing

But like my Daddy said
It's in your heart not your head
And you got to sing and sing and sing

There's a window in the wall
Lookin' out on it all
Leavin' fears and tears and troubles alone

There's a fire in the stove
Keepin' out the cold
Warmin' wine and winters and babies and homes

Seems like everyone is out lookin' for the sun
Singin' rain and pain on he who hesitates
But it'll shine when it shines
You might think I'm wastin' time
But I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait
Yes, I'm just a good ol' boy that's learned to wait


It kind of loses something without the music. I’m told by Bump that she has plans for a trip for us to Black Rock City planed for the future. Not this year… Will see how the burn goes this year. Ok with that I’m out.

Smiles ~

Waves bye.

A channel that reads what are typically first-hand accounts or taken from such accounts from the past.

From a soviet tourist in America, 1936
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QC-g6uT7_1I
(using the Navajo as an example, this confuses the relocation of so many tribes off of their land with the Navajo traditional lands, but the idea and sentiment is well illustrated)
... loathe and test their white-faced brothers who have been exterminating them for two centuries, driving them into worse and worse places and finally into a fruitless desert. The government which formerly devoted itself to destroying the indians, is now trying to preserve their small number of descendants. So-called Indian Reservations have been built, where the whites are permitted to trade with the indians under state control. Having chased the indians away from the fertile ground, they have reserved for them only a few pathetic parcels of desert and this is regarded as a great act of benevolence. They've opened museums of indian art. They buy from the indians for a pittance their drawings, rugs, painted clay bowls and silver bracelets. Americans are rather proud of the indians, even so does the director of a zoo take pride in a rare old lion. ...
Later in that video, they describe their unfavourable perceptions of American cinematography. Including
... we must have seen more than 100 feature pictures alone. All these pictures are below the level of human dignity. ...
At first we wondered about it. Later we were worried about it. And then we began to understand how it all came about. There are four main standard types of pictures: musical comedy, historical drama, a film of bandit life and a film featuring some famous opera singer. Each of these standard types has only one plot, which is varied endlessly and tiringly. American spectators see one in the same thing year in and year out. They've become so accustomed to it that if they were presented with a picture that had a new plot they would undoubtedly burst into tears. Like the child from whom his favorite toy had been taken though it was old and broken.

Mt. Everest documentaries alternating with any Ken Burns (David McCollough, Keith David, and Peter Coyote are missing an opportunity to make sleep and meditation audio programs.) or the most colorful easy pleasant available, (golf is back) and free antenna commercial tv news. It seems important for me to know my currently unneeded drug brands by name and impression.

I’ve been watching the frontline unedited (long running at any rate) interviews for The Putin Files, and then just random frontline longer format interviews. I also found a Japanese man quietly driving , then parking his homemade camper, cooking dinner, cleaning up, and getting ready for bed…no dialogue, just simple titles and a little music. “Tales along the way”. “ Winged Pegasus” , Fil, a guy who uses pitch software to analyze iconic vocal tracks, surprisingly fascinating.
