HUMPTY DUMPTY homele$$ 2

"The Truth is written in water." Ho Chi Zen

hola,
a lil context;
in the 1980s (so last century)
then Gov.Ronald Reagan decided to
"reform" the mental health asylums,
what he didn't say is that this amounted to
giving the mentally ill a bus ticket to the nearest large city.
didn't you ever wonder where the "homeless" came from?
oh, there were always bums and vagabonds but they were mostly
few and far between after The Depression ended.

when we lived in Mendocino County,
above Willits a town and hour north of Santa Rosa on 101,
a retired nurse told us tales of confused young people
getting off buses in front of the Safeway
with no money,friends or contacts.
when i lived in frisco in the 80s,
a mainly transient town in that era ,
young confused often drug addled people
were a staple part of living on the streets.
so like most people i was unaware of
Reagan's cruel and heartless lies.

GOMER: Get Out Of My Emergency Room
last year a large L.A. hospital was convicted and fined for
"patient dumping" of elderly and disabled patients
on the local Skid Row,this was often caught on video
hence the fines.

this week the SF Chronicle has told tales of a
psych facility in Nevada sending the
mentally ill to 45 states on Greyhound via
one way tickets,some of whom landed in Sacramento
schizophrenic and depressed so now
Nevada is in trouble with Medicare
which apparently most of the dumpees were on...

just so you know the world is still turning
before World War III starts
in Syria,how can O Bomber resist?

BTW just saw Tom Cruise in OBLIVION
liked it,beautifully composed and filmed.
4 * out of 5.you could do worse...

LOVE hurts (film)....

"You get what you think about most of the time." Napoleon Hill

hola again today,
i may have mentioned that i am NOT a big fan of
sappy romantic comedies (RomComs)
so i had two pleasant surprises during
 a sick day of watching cable.

most likely you have never heard of Zoe Kazan
who both wrote and co stars in the delightful
RUBY SPARKS..if you have ever heard of
Tibetan "tulpas"-thought forms made real
then you have the premise of RUBY,
only without the Tibetan mysticism aspect.

this is a love poem of the solitary writer and falling in love
with your creations, which has less of the gritty reality of
BLUE VALENTINE but the same emotional honesty.

speaking of honesty A DANGEROUS METHOD
chronicles the real life interaction of Jung and Freud
and a neurasthenic twitchy female patient cum colleague.
not a big fan of Freud even tho i have a BA is Abnormal Pysch,
too long to go into now,
but i felt these two movies were a perfct bookend
about LOVE and it's failings.
ADM with it's slow leisurely pace
is not what one expects
from horror genius director
David Cronenberg.

you will find the relevance of the
 top quote in both these films.

BTW as a fan of Milla J. with Netflix
 found it hard to believe i'd missed the latest installment
RESIDENT EVIL:RETRIBUTION
with it's climatic kung fu finale and
the White House ablaze,deeply satisfying
on a shallow but primal level. 

"Winter is coming..." Game of Thrones

50 Reasons You Despised George W. Bush's Presidency: A Reminder on the Day of His Presidential Library Dedication | Alternet

anyone recal the "hillbilly armor" soldiers made themselves
on Humvees before the partisan MRAP appeared ,
even thi as i have noted "our staunch ally"
Israel already had these and
offered to sell them to the USA
but Dubya/Cheney refused...

homele$$ yet?

"Life is a slow march thru enemy territory." Fiorella Harris

hola,
am stable at the moment thank you.
yesterday was terrible but a good massage
 and dining out helped some.

a matter of context
i worked for the Moscone Center for nine years in frisco
part of the job was, each day at dawn, to act as
a human leaf blower of the homeless.
mind you this was during the 90s Dot Com bubble
when frisco was flush.

why was this part of the job?
at one site the Ma Bell workers
didn't like looking out their tinted  windows and seeing
the homeless fucking,lounging about,sleep late or whatever.
at the other site,across from City Hall, the mayor
and his minions didn't want to SEE any homeless peeps as they
walked or drove to work.
if we couldn't move them then the cops were called.

now the purpose (sic) of a leaf blower
is to blow dead leaves or trash from one location to another
then the wind blows and the work is undone,
you get the analogy.

i have watched with bemusement and wry sadness
as frisco, bezerkeley and then s'cruz
have made it illegal to sit,lie,stand or beg
anywhere on Public Property and thereby annoy
 or harass the locals and tourists.
Tom Ammaniano, the frsico state rep,
has proposed a Homeless Bill of Rights
which would negate local efforts
and end the war on the poor.he points out
 that most peeps in KALIpornia
are 2-3 paychecks away from being out on the street.
he will get severe pushback from
the usual business interests....

around Xmas during the so called
Season of Sharing we are treated to
endless heartwrenching tales of despair,drug addiction,
lost hopes and how tough it is to make here.
then the New Years rolls around and
they become invisible again.

here in s'cruz the pot was roiled last year
when a mentally ill homelss man from frisco,
a large black man, stabbed to death a white woman
business owner in broad daylight-downtown-
for no apparent reason.and so the crackdowns began
no begging or sleeping on the beach at nite,
proposed cutbacks to homeless help,shelters and soup kitchens
and the usual Punish The Poor playlist.
c'mon
is this The Best 
 THE RICHEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD can do?

on Facebook this week it was proposed,in jest i hope,
that the homeless and seniors would get better care
 in prison than lousy nursing homes.....
as a crip activist i can attest this to be true.
almost universal complaints from friends
who have been in nursing homes
for rehab and what have you..

the news report a 236 billion U$D
joint task force fighter jet
is now being built....like Old Rome
we waste our treasure and soldiers on grandiose
and wasteful spending whilst here at home,
in the weeds, our fragile world crumbles around us.

anybody recall THE PEACE DIVIDEND
after the first Gulf War under Bush 41?
yeah right
that idea lasted less than a year.
the inmates are running the asylum
off the cliff...

Democracy Now!

think you've heard enuff about drones, give this a listen please...

a dark skinned man....

hola,
apologies for not posting more often but
my heart problems appear to be worsening,
recently give a script for nitro
to keep me alive after a heart attack
just long enuff for paramedics to arrive...

but that's not what i wanted to write about today.
it gave me shivers when CNN reported
a vidcap of "a dark skinned man"
or when FAUX News reported that a badly burn Saudi
student was the Prime Suspect, both
reports were wrong. also apparently
some twit on Twitter advocated
finding and lynching all Saudis...

does not one even recall the number of
turbanned Sikhs and Pakistanis
killed or maimed after 9-11?
are they now THE NEW NIGGERS
to be launched at every slight or whim?
every time a car backfires do we lynch a Muslim?
burn a mosque or stack of Korans?

i may be old and frail now but
this is not the America i pledged allegiance to
my classrooms.

i'm just saying...

"No good deed shall ever go unpunished." French axiom

hola,
am still digesting a LIGHTR BULB GOES ON
idea i ran into with a link to Consppirazzi
yesterday. the myth of the Titan Prometheus
(see Wikipedia for context) who stole
"fire"(knowledge) from the Gods
to give to mankind then faced an eternity or torture.

the article equated Prometheus with LUCIFER
Latin for "the light bringer"..WTF?
in Islam there is a cult relgion,
the Ismaeli???,referred to as
"devil worshipers" by the devout
what if they're right?

in a Gnostic context let's examine this.
Archons are non human inteeligences
who like to be feared/worshiped
as Gods..let's wring the Bible & Book of Enoch
for evidence of same..Lucifer challenged "God"
as lead a revolt of "angels" against "God"
and lost then was expelled to Earth.
 Lucifer and a third of all angels
or 600 of 1800 in The Host/heaven?

i have long had suspicions
that YWH (Yaweh/Jehovah)
who"walked in the Garden"
was not the same God who
created the multiverse in all it's expressions.

plus there is the problem of Cain
who was given a mark which
protected him...from whom?
and Cain found a wife in The Land of Nod
east of Eden.now "Nod" is archaic Hebrew
for "stranger"..children of a lesser god???
or just another "God"...Baal?
(Apis of the Egyptians?) and the level of
slaughter and genocide in the Old Testament
is just appalling,check it out.

what if we as a populace have been hoodwinked
into the wholesale worship of a false
possibly EVIL God? would this expalin the
wholesale cruelty of most major religions?
the Inquistion,Crusades,Holy Wars,
witchcraft trials,devil worship.
is this the kernel of The Secret
in secret societies?

just a thot.

U$ Debt

"He had  delusions of adequacy."  Walter Kerr

hola,
just a quickie today.
turned on the TV a bit ago to plot tonite's tv viewing
in time to hear MSNBC's Chris Matthews bellowing about
how North Korea spends most of it's money on
weaponry while it's populace starves.....

1.Stanford estimates the war debt of Iraqistan will be 4-6 TRILLION U$D.
2.multiple choice:
how much of this debt does much demonized China own?
80%?
65%?
45%?
39%/
8%?

yup 8% per some pundit on CSPAN this weekend.
the most is owned by domestic pensions funds,investors et al.

to recap 4-6Trillion in war debt,unnecessary war debt-

enough to feed every child and adult currently hungry
enough to rebuild out crumbling infastructure nation wide
enough to rectify the broken health care system
enough to restore our failing schools to past glory
(at least0
with some change left over to buy a few dozen lobbyists.

i'm just saying...
