A departure from the norm (some of my inner anger comes out!)

(So, here I am, working at a remote location somewhere in Texas. I have, as usual, been extremely busy. But I have quite some time to type this evening (hoping nothing breaks of course). I would continue my childhood story, but Drake Cyanide has tagged me to answer a whole buncha questions, so I'm gonna do that in a minute. Some quick notes first...

- The three of you who actually read my blog may be thinking why am I writing about my childhood? Does he have issues that need to be resolved via the blog? Is he looking to find people that went through similar situations? The answer is I'm writing about my childhood to initially collect my thoughts for a book. I have done so much in a short time span and overcome so much to be where I am today. I just want to write notes down to collect them later. Will people want to read it? I think so. Some day I am going to be very famous. That's as far as I'll go with that for now. Just realize that someday you'll read a book about someone famous and it'll click..."I used to read his blog!". And don't worry, it'll be for a good thing, not an infamous thing.

- Things that have irritated me recently... 1) too many people killing children. Lancaster PA, Florida turnpike, etc... why do people do that? And I guess equally disturbing is why I can accept adults killing adults (not really accept... just that it doesn't tug at my heartstrings as much as...) but I cannot stand to hear how people kill kids. Especially when it is a family member or friend of the family. The little kids are so trusting. They have no idea until the last minute. Just the thought of what their faces must look like when they realize what is going to happen. Terrified... Confused... Alone. Why do we have to live in times like these? Why are we allowing this to happen while we police other countries? Why are we allowing our governments to spend our money for all the wrong reasons? Where in the world does our money go? Property taxes. Sales taxes. Income taxes. All to do what? Do you realize we spend 10,000 dollars per student annually in this country? If you take all money collected in taxes on all levels of government and divide it by the number of kids in grades k-12, it comes out to 10,000 dollars per child. Unbelievable. Our nation, as a whole is dumber than ever! In the 90's, it was the first time in the history of our country that a graduating class was not smarter than their parents generation. Where is this money at? Why do we have overcrowded classrooms, shared textbooks? Why can the schools not afford field trips anymore? Why have we allowed the No Child Left Behind Act to still be in effect? Maybe because nobody understands it. Well the president says it's good, hell that's good enough for me! Do the research people! Teachers hate their jobs! Why? Because they do not get to teach. They have to teach to a federal test. If the kids don't do well on the test, the school does not get as much federal financial support the next year. Public schools have become a business on a federal level. And we live in fear that we need that money. I say we don't. I say a community should get together, decide what curriculum to have in their own schools, and have at it. If done properly, it would benefit everyone in the community. Teachers would be happy, therefore the classrooms would be happy. Kids would have positive attitudes and not want to go on a shooting spree ...

Sorry. I know I'm living in a dream world to believe that it would happen. Most world dominating empires throughout history have lasted no more than 200 years. Why is this? Here's my theory... 1. people rise up against the oppressors and obtain freedom or they just top the big dog and become number one. 2. a proud nation passes on to the next generation the beliefs, the feelings of what it took to be number one. 3. so on and so on this passes from generation to generation until noone wants to hear it anymore. They don't know what it's like to not be number one. from birth to death, it's just the way it is. 4. As content as can be, the people of the number one nation don't realize what's going on until it's too late and then BAM! someone else who wants to be number one hits them like a train. 5. Those people are the new number one and are a proud generation, wishing to pass on their stories to their children. Guess how long we've been a nation. Officially, 230 years. At the 220 mark, we had a generation that could not find central america (the majority of those tested pointed to Kansas). Those people are adults now. I heard on the radio today that 70% of american adults in a recent test could pick out the pacific ocean on a map. I read that as 30% can't find the Pacific freakin' Ocean! We are sitting on our couches, watching our big screens. Remember life before cable? 3 channels, maybe 5 max. Now we can watch anything. and we don't stop there. we want more. I think we need a haircut channel. all haircuts, all day. i'm kidding, of course, but if they created it, people would watch it. to me, it's no different than the food network, travel channel, or the golf network. Anyway, we are chilling, not a care in the world, rallying to "support the troops" and feel good about ourselves for saying we support them cuz we bought a yellow magnet. First of all, why do we need to let everyone know that we paid money to show our support? Secondly, where does the money go? Take it from a person who was in the military... wanna show support? Send a care package to a total stranger in the armed forces. Lead a classroom or sunday school activity and have the kids create cards to the soldiers and sailors. Buying a yellow ribbon doesn't mean shit in the real world. Sorry, straying again... so we are chillin, watching our big screens, eating cheetos, and thinking we are the big dog and will be forever. No need to work for it. Guess what? That train is coming to hit us. There are people working their asses off to be the big dog. And they are very close to accomplishing it. We will not even resist it. We will roll over in shock and suddenly be in a very foreign position... scared. I don't mean the type of scared created by the news channels who work hand in hand with the government to boost ratings (they are more about money and success than reporting any shred of true journalism. And I am the only one who thinks this? Nope. Apparently those who run this country and the armed forces think so too. Don't know what I'm talking about? Tired of my ranting? Fine, here's stuff you can read and watch elsewhere...

The first one is the one you must start with. It is 80 minutes long, so set aside the time. Do not allow yourself to get distracted (even if rachel ray is about to cook some miracle meal in less than thirty minutes while in London and going against the Iron Chef). It all builds from the beginning to the end, so pay attention (ADD or not). I am not here to tell you it's correct. I'm just showing you the other side. The side you won't see on the cable news networks. Watch and you decide. Oh yeah, tell your friends too (I could use the increased blog visitors). Here it is...

Ok, I am going to post this now without editing it. I want to come back to it and see what was going through my mind while everyone else in the world was sleeping.

I will do the Drake's tag tomorrow. I promise no more morbid stuff for a while. I just had to get that off my chest I guess. Thanks for reading.

B'gye,
