From memes to “Breaking News” stories, Facebook and Twitter are full of information. Most of this internet info is very opinionated and is the original source of “fake news.” True journalism where the writer does real research before publishing a story seems to be a lost art.

 

Unfortunately, readers are suckers for the printed word. Across the nation people can be emotionally connected in a matter of minutes or a few hours. Stories get shared over and over. These stories often have just enough truth to them so that they are somewhat believable. They often go viral reaching millions. Since everyone is talking about said stories and sharing them thousands of gullible internet users think they are the real deal.

 

Jumping to conclusions is now a way of life for many. A picture is still worth a thousand words but coupled with fake, made up words is pure garbage. Give me enough time and I can connect Captain Kangaroo and Mr. Rogers in the biggest sex scandal you have ever read. If your source of news or information comes from Facebook or Twitter you really need to look for a new source.

 

Keep in mind writers like myself get paid for views…not truth. Look for news sources that are not slanted only in the direction that you want to hear. Look for a news station that even in this day in time bases there stories off of facts, not slanted agendas.

I think the Russians are after me.

 


I think the Russians are after me. This has been bothering me for a while. There are just too many signs and I can’t keep ignoring them. I mean if my family is in danger I feel as if I need to tell someone…but who? Well here goes.

 

You see, Russia has two ways to get me either by land or by sea. I haven’t exactly figured out which route they will choose yet…but I bet it will be sneaky. I kinda think it will be by land. I think as I write this the sneaky Russians are crossing Alaska. Alaska is very, big and they can travel pretty much unnoticed. I think it will be just a small band of Russians on adventure type bikes…they won’t raise suspicions.

 

This band of rogue Russians will stay at Hostels and cheap motels as they cross the US in route to my house. Why would they be coming to my house? Well because if you will do a little research you can easily see that the road from Alaska connects with other roads and those roads lead directly to my house. I can’t believe no one else has spotted this yet. OMG are you people blind? Or do you just not care that Russians are coming to get me. Well, I have to go for now, some ones coming. Maybe in the comments later I will tell you why they are after me. Please like, share, and follow my blog for more details later-Bye.

Nashville TN December 2020

 


Thoughts and prayers for Nashville TN tonight. On this day December 25th 2020 a bomb exploded in downtown Nashville. While at the time of this writing only three injuries to report. Even though the injury list is small lots of damage was incurred and many lives interrupted.

 

Why someone chose this day and site to commit this act of terrorism is still unknown. It will take a considerable amount of time to rebuild what has been destroyed today. Nashville residents are strong and will recover from this and move forward. Nashville for what its worth Merry Christmas, the nation is watching and is with you.

Civil War Not a Good Option

 


With tension in our nation still at a tremendously high level, the talk of civil war is still making the rounds. Each side seems to be just itching to make the other side pay for having different ideas, wants, or opinions. One side wants to force a change across America and the other side wants people not to change. Both sides of the political arena are to blame for the mess we are in, but, has the whole civil war thing really been thought through.

 

So…what will happen if a civil war does break out in our great land? It will be more devastating than most alive today can imagine. The riots that have been happening would be minuscule compared to an all out civil war. As bullets begin to fly across the land no city would be safe. Trucks would stop. Food supplies gone. Hospitals shut down. Lives would be lost…many lives.

 

Our country’s infrastructure would be damaged, our money would be worthless. Our country and our lives as we know it would most likely never be the same again. And for what? What could cause the greatest nation on the planet to implode in on herself? Many factors have led us to this point. Greed, power, ignorance, and arrogance.


 

The American Dream is known all across the world. Unfortunately, the America we all know in our thoughts and dreams is slipping away. We are here in this country because we wanted to have freedoms and be different than where we came from. We should be smart enough to look around and see what has worked and hasn’t worked in other civilized countries. Will we make it as a nation to our Tri-Centennial? Not looking good at this point. What will you do to help? Will you make peace with your neighbor or will you die with him.

Covid - 19 is Personal not Political

 


The statement Covid 19 is personal not political is 100% correct. Having a longtime friend pass away recently and another coming real close to passing as well put it in perspective for me. It should for all of us. Some however would rather make fun of others for trying to safely go about their business. Many excuses are made daily as to why masks won’t be worn. Most are bullshit. I’d like to share with you a post from a dear friend that has been through and is still suffering from this so called hoax and fake virus. Many out there should be ashamed of themselves.

 

Covid Recovery Update: I have been off the vent for 12 and a 1/2 weeks now. Any improvements have been very slow coming. My oxygen still drops easily with very little exertion. I am on 4 1/2 liters 24/7. I still have what feels like carpet coating my throat and preventing me from talking above a whisper. The coughing spells have became more violent but they are not as often. I have crazy random hot flashes in my head along with the numb area on my scalp that is still holding fast. I have lost half of my hair and doesn't seem to be slowing down despite doubling up on biotin and other vitamins. If it gets any worse, I will pull a Demi or a Brittany and buzz my head! The sleep study report said that I stopped breathing 23 times an hour and my oxygen dropped to 81. They want me to come back for another study to get a cpap. I haven't heard from my ECHO test yet. My neck stays sore and the headaches are becoming more prominent. The only way I can get a good nites sleep is by soaking in a hot bath with Epson salt and taking a liquid Nyquil tablet and an ambien. Haven't been doing my breathing treatments much unless I get scared. The Dr doesn't think they are helping me. My teeth and face stays sore. Praying my teeth don't fall out like some covid survivors do. My taste is nonexistant and my smell is off and on. I smiled when I smelled a skunk today...but it stunk! I finished my home therapy this past Friday and tomorrow at 7:45am, I will start 12 weeks of pulmonary therapy at the hospital, 3 times a week. I'm still having doubts that I will ever catch back up on my life! Having to do paperwork everyday for taxes, insurance, Healthcare, and logging my exercises that I have to do twice a day. My ability to concentrate for very long has greatly diminished. The tremors in my hand have improved a little but I still can't read my own handwriting. The extreme fatigue and shortness of breath is hanging in there like a hair in a biscuit. The bladder still has a mind of its own. SS has suggested some puppy pads🤣. Still so thankful for all the treats and goodies that friends and family have brought over and everyone still offering to help. It is so appreciated! My heart might not be working correctly but it is still smiling and so am I.

Wear a mask.

Social distance.

Wash your hands.

COVID IS EVIL!!! 

 

I am fully aware that politicians use anything and everything to further their agendas. Both sides do it. What is hard for me to fathom is normal decent people so caught up in politics that they can no longer do the right thing. Washing my hands is easy. Wearing a mask when in a crowed area is easy. Many other things we do on a daily basis are for safety and we do them, this is no different. Only you can prevent forest fires.
