For that comfort zone:
One
again my exhale mist turns to ice.
Oh, I know I have said this once or twice,
My body thinks this cold is quite nice.
Invigorating, adding to life a little spice!
Crystal skies, brisk step, a frigid paradise?
Perhaps
one of the greatest benefits of smart phones is having a variety
of stuff to read while waiting in a doctor’s office.
In
the “What the Hell is Going On, Department”, I have just
learned that University of Connecticut offers mental health counselling for
students who feel offended by conservative viewpoints. Maybe the entire country
needs mental health counselling.
It’s
tough to do inventories in Afghanistan because of the
tally ban.
The
Question:
Colors come and colors go, but you can always be sure
paint and design companies will always be seeking to clutter your mind with new
options each year. What will do you think you’ll be seeing in 2018? Bonus: Why was the mid-19th
century American Natives First party referred to as the “Know Nothing Party”?
The

You
really have to feel sorry for all the good Democrats
who all of a sudden are looking up to find that the media is quoting Rosie
O’Donnell as their spokesperson. Disturbing.
Who
is the meanest looking Defensive Coordinator – the Eagles’
Jim Schwartz or the Patriots’ Matt Patricia? Case closed. The Pats win.
How
do all of these students who need mental health counselling
become so grounded in the left in the first place. Is it their parents, or
perhaps…teachers?
An
Old Shoe Revisited, Department:
“We will bury you.” That was a quite the
controversial statement, or threat, form the then Soviet leader Khrushchev. Americans
laughed at the time, thinking how could a communist society that had destroyed
a great country ever be of interest to free and independent Americans. I have
think that crafty old Nikita knew that potentially susceptible US people could fall
prey over time to the promise of extreme government largess. Perhaps Russian
analyst s could see trade unions gaining ground in state legislatures and key
government jobs. He might have noticed groundswells of new ideas from immigrants
(and the future generations they spawned) from socialist countries who honestly
looked for precious freedoms here, but only knew what they knew from the old
country. Maybe he saw today.
That’s
just a thought I had as I watch relatively intelligent
people gravitate to a socialist system, a system which basically has never
worked over time where it has been used in the past, including not only the
USSR, but also close to home, Cuba and Venezuela.
That
phrase “We Will Bury You”, a phrase that sent Americans scurrying
about building fallout shelters, was probably originally misinterpreted. It is
now considered to have meant – “We will outlast you” – Communism will plow
under Capitalism. I seem to have heard words to that effect in the USSRI Statehouse.
I
see where the always gaudily dressed, one-time superstar
Cher is besmirching Sarah Saunders for her choice of clothes. That’s what
schoolyard children do when they are losing. I personally think that Sanders most
likely got a huge chuckle over that one.
England
doesn’t have a kidney bank, but it does have a Liverpool
President
Obama could have easily legalized the Dreamers, as he and
the Democrat House and a 60 Vote filibuster proof Senate majority. He chose not
to. You have to think that Chuck Schumer now is wishing he had.
I
was reading about the “Know Nothing” party which came into
existence in the mid-19th century mainly out fear of rapidly
expanding Catholic immigration and the possible threat of eventually moving toward
a USA dominated by the Pope. Kind of rings a bell about today, and Muslims and
the threat of imposed sharia law.
The
Answer:
Paint and color companies like Pantone now create
“palettes” instead of just a series of individual colors. First, I am hearing
that pastels are out and intense, vivid colors will be what you see. Here are
the Palettes: “Resourceful” -- Complimentary Blue an Orange, cool and
warm. “Vedure” – This healthnut array
includes the colors Celery, Berry infused Purples, and Eggshell Blue. “Playful” – This is supposedly playful Lime
popsicles and Yellows coming together. “Discretion” – Also fun loving, they say,
as coming together are Elderberry and Hawthorne Rose, Powerful Pink. “Far Fetched” – This is supposed to be earth
with Cornsilk Yellow meeting Rosy Tones. “Intricacy” – It has neutral Metallics with hints of Holly
Berry Red and Yellow Sulphur. “Intensity”
– An eclectic mix of colors implying strength balanced upon Gold and Black.
“Tech-niques” – Think about how you would like to sit in a room of Turquoise,
Pink and Purple anchored by brilliant White and frosted Almonds. Did I actually write that mess above? I would
say, look at yourself, know what you feel and go to a paint store and see what
you like. Bonus: The America First
party of the 1850’s was very secret. So, when members were asked by reporters
and officials about their party they were told to reply, “I know Nothing”.
I’m
lobbying for next year’s new palette: “Satisfaction” – Featuring
Cheeto Orange Crunch and Chicken Gravy Yellow, with tints of KFC Fried Chicken Skin
Toned Sepia.
Enjoy
the room you are in. It’s cheaper to love what you have.
