Welcome back… while you were gone, the world went to shit!

Radiation. War. Natural Disaster. Economics. Religion. Politics. Terrorism.

If I listened to everything the media is telling me, I would be BATSHIT CRAZY! I would be constantly depressed and would ‘actually need’ the pharmaceuticals that they bombard us with during commercial break.

….

BREAKING NEWS, we’ve got the same information as we did 10 minutes ago, but stay tuned because we want to repeat the same information in a tone that conveys Emergency and Authority, again. Hear what we say and go to work and repeat it like a parrot. Induce fear. Create anxiety. Fudge the numbers. Use irrelevant statistics. Label people. Label things. Become the ultimate sheeple!

….

What’s better than a strategy that plays on people’s fear?

…I am so glad I left the news business!

Whatever happened to hard hitting journalism? I guess it doesn’t matter when you have a ‘pretty face’ telling you what THEY THINK you should know.

News seems nothing more than sensational key words, fancy graphics and fictitious numbers….all wrapped up in that all too familiar “I know better than you tone!”

SWEEPS!

Thankfully, there are such things as logic, common sense and critical thinking. (…and Charlie Sheen)

Google Doesn’t Celebrate Cinco De Mayo

Ego — Wed, 05 May 2010 16:48:08 +0000

My post from last year will shed more light on this issue. READ IT HERE

Second year in a row that I have noticed that Google doesn’t like Mexicans

err…rather they do not change their logo for Cinco De Mayo.

Wonder if this has anything to do with their political views?

Kim Larsen – Chico’s Suicide [Music]

Ego — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 09:00:05 +0000

Towards the beginning of this year I was introduced to tunes of a great Danish musician, Kim Larsen.
Since that time I have come to love his music.
Not only can his songs be pure and simple, but they can also complex in their own respect.

Although I cannot speak the language, I still enjoy his Danish songs greatly.

Here is Chico’s Suicide from his 1977 album, Kim Larsen & Yankee Drengene.

Please enjoy it!

Thanks, Stine!
