From growing up a poor, mixed-race kid in the 50s, 60s & 70s, to living as a depressed "urban hermit" in recovery, my blog is a mixture of humor & seriousness that reflects my personal philosophy for life in a global asylum.
I’m glad PT. I’d have said a lot more, but my aching back won’t let me sit at this desk long enough for the full out rant I wanted to do. Perhaps less is more?
Oh IzaakMak, I have decided not to go on about what is happening in Australia on my blog, though it is breaking my heart, because I refuse to let hate win. Any form of anger is hate. I wish mateship was a religion because I would cherish it more than these so called religions. Family and friends are the heart of humanity, without them I would be NOTHING!!!!
Hmm, I wonder if I could do a Ron Hubbard and make up the Mateshipology religion, a religion in which one must ignore all flaws in individuals and only embrace the positive.
I remember traveling for long periods of time filming around Europe with a small film crew. We all made a pact that if or when someone woke up in a bad mood or felt crappy, they told everyone. if an argument happened and it got heated we all agreed to step away…agree to disagree (by saying “time out” )… and change the subject. Surprisingly it worked.
A pact like that should work for everyone Loon. Unfortunately, the “shoot first and talk later” mentality has always been more popular. And speaking of popularity, I had a dream as a kid where I led a global revolution towards reason by tricking people into thinking joining such a movement would make them more popular. I think the first time anyone suggested I get help was right after telling them about that dream!
Thank Valentine. I love that show, and the Dr Spencer Reid character is my favorite one!
Keeping the Monsters and Ghosts at bay should be easy, considering they only exist in our heads. The trouble comes when we let them determine our actions!

Is a mixture of humor & seriousness that reflects my own personal philosophy of life.
From growing up a poor, mixed-race kid in the 50s, 60s & 70s, to living as a depressed urban hermit in recovery, this is a collection of my pleas for reason & rationality in this global asylum.
The Only Thing I'm Certain Of Is:
I Don't Know Everything!
All Of My Opinions Are Subject To Change As New Facts Come In.
Respectful Comments Will Always Be Welcomed.
O’dear, very worrying, i’m glad i won’t be around.
Where will you go my friend. The asylum is truly global…
Well if it doe’s not happen for another 20 / 30 odd years i might be dead
Good point my friend, though hoping to die before the rampaging loons kill me just feels so… weird!
You have to be realistic
Hey, not all loons rampage
Oh Loon, you so quazee!!!
Point taken. Been thinking much the same thing.

LOL, back to the unpopular group
Maybe I should have targeted people who wanted to be thought of as “Radicals” instead!
I love that idea, I’ll join you and the almight ‘No worries mate’ should be one of the commandments…
You pulled one of my favorite characters from Criminal Minds. Great Quote!
Monsters and Ghosts … yeah but we have the ability to keep them at bay

He is my favorite also. Funny that.
Having had to give up on my dream of being a superhero, I’ve had to fall back on the SuperNerd fantasy instead.
