- World Refugee Day 2019
-
World Refugee Day is yet another UN intrusion into the politics of the world that has morphed into something it wasn't intended to be. Originally it was observed each June 20 to raise awareness of the situation of refugees internationally.
However, with the advent of Agenda 21 and the foreigners admitted to New York due to our participation in the United Nations we are now innundated with both spies everywhere and an opportunistic leftist component called "the democratic party" seeking a United States with no borders AS WELL AS giving the vote to non citizens in a ploy to entice those not even entitled to the vote with undeserved entitlements in an effort to skew the elections and steal control of the government.
There is a legal immigration methodolgy. Then there is this incursion which is an invasion supported by enemies of the state like George Soros, The Pope, and The Democratic Party.
So now we have this mess where those who would impose upon our sovereignty as a nation force us to teeter on the edge of civil war with the portends of this dark reality.
I'm ready, are you?

- Anton Yelchin RIP
-
Anton Viktorovich Yelchin
American Actor
March 11, 1989 – June 19, 2016
American Actor Anton Yelchin was a star who had risen playing various character roles such as Pavel Chekov in three Star Trek films and for that reason he held a place in my heart reserved for the trekkie culture alone.
He passed at a young age after becoming pinned between his Jeep Grand Cherokee and a brick pillar outside his house in Studio City, California.
Alas, I found myself still grieving his loss well into the following year.

- Autistic Pride Day 2019
-
I have known quite a few autistic people in my existence.
With no exceptions they may exhibit cringeworthy behavior and also a variety of talents otherwise and I have missed a few of them over the years.
Disturbing behavior patterns are one of those amenable characteristics which diminish over time with therapy and maturity.
A lot of persons with autism grow to realize the scope of their issues and achieve balance in their lives as a result.
Today is Autistic Pride Day ... originally a spinoff of the Aspies for Freedom initiative; it is a celebration supportive of pride for autistics held on June 18 annually since 2005.
This concept emphasizes both pride for autistics and their role in bringing positive changes to society as a whole.
They have several versions of a flag used to represent the day. Another "rainbow infinity symbol" is more commonly used likely due to the leftist spin on the entire notion of autism spectrum disorder.
As it is surely known my interpersonal skills lean decidedly to the right and will likely remain there in perpetuity.

- Happy 81st Birthday Mama
-
A Prayer for a Mother's Birthday
Lord Jesus, Thou hast known
A mother's love and tender care:
And Thou wilt hear, while for my own
Mother most dear I make this birthday prayer.
Protect her life, I pray,
Who gave the gift of life to me;
And may she know, from day to day,
The deepening glow of Life that comes from Thee.
As once upon her breast
Fearless and well content I lay,
So let her heart, on Thee at rest,
Feel fears depart and troubles fade away.
Her every wish fulfill;
And even if Thou must refuse
In anything, let Thy wise will
A comfort bring such as kind mothers use.
Ah, hold her by the hand,
As once her hand held mine;
And though she may not understand
Life's winding way, lead her in peace divine.
I cannot pay my debt
For all the love that she has given;
But Thou, love's Lord, wilt not forget
Her due reward,--bless her in earth and heaven.
Henry Jackson van Dyke Jr
November 10, 1852 – April 10, 1933

- The Ultimate Warrior RIP
-
I am not a professional wrestling aficionado.
Over the years, those days with Ricky Gleaton and his dad Mortimo in front of their television in Perry South Carolina during my youth having long gone by I grew apart beginning with the various groups seeking membership in the Actor's Guild.
This being said, in my heyday I would sit in front of that teevee and hoot and holler with Mortimo and Ricky fully engrossed in the show and nothing will replace the fondness in my memory for those days, those guys, and the entirety of it all.
It's a sadder, colder world now with Mortimo and Lula Bell having gone their separate ways and even Ricky went his after parting with Nancy.
One of those characters I never fully engaged due to his relative late arrival viz a viz my viewership was The Ultimate Warrior, aka Dingo Warrior and simply The Warrior having seen primarily clips and promotional spots here and there during breaks from my activities of daily living while engaged as an instructor in the stupid state technical college system.
He was born James Brian Hellwig and was the consumate showman and I loved the rough and tumble mouthy braggadocio and how they incensed the crowd into various stages of uproar.
The Ultimate Warrior died on April 8, 2014, at the age of 54 in Scottsdale, Arizona while walking to his car with his wife.
His final diagnosis was the lifestyle disease atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease which is cause by plaque build up secondary to calcium adhering to the muscular walls of the arterial vessels.
All this being said he was an impressive man who attained the pinnicle of his career several times in the form of championships and what a sad way to go for such a magnificent physical specimen.

- Global Wind Day 2019
-
Today is Global Wind Day designed to celebrate wind energy.
Naturally, anything with "global" in it's title is not only suspect, but ridiculed as far as I am concerned.
Yes I view wind energy as one of those viable alternatives to oil based economy abuse by the military industrial complex.
It would be a fine thing for me personally. I only wish that the global were gone because I'd just as soon develop domestic resources with domestic work for our own people.
This not being the case I choose to observe Global Wind Day as a celebration of our own personal wind, the lowly fart.
Breaking wind is a way to demonstrate that production indigenous to your own orientation and location.
It may be loud, silent, odorless, or deadly.
Global Wind Day I pass gas in your general direction.

- Flag Day 2019
-
I am considerably more patriotic than I was in my earlier adult years.
When I was a child I was blindly patriotic. My awareness of world affairs has tempered my adult attitudes and I must confess a somewhat tainted position on patriotism due to my familiars as well as the realization that "friends" aren't always really "friends" ...
Now, with the advent of the Obama debacle I am more attuned with that which is real and that which is not and I try to be there for my country in spirit and person.
Today is Flag Day — celebrated each June 14 in commemoration of the adoption of the flag of the United States on June 14, 1777 by the Second Continental Congress.
It has undergone a bit of evolution with President Woodrow Wilson issuing a proclamation establishing June 14 as Flag Day. On August 3, 1949 National Flag Day was established by an act of Congress.
It is not an "official" federal holiday.

- Tarrantino to do Star Trek ?
-
The news leaves me somewhat stunned ... and I'm already anticipating the F bombs.
I'm wondering if it will be some spin on
"Where no F Word has Gone Before" or
"Swearing ... the Final Frontier".
The previously light on the swearing Star Trek franchise is obviously heading for a little banal debauchery and will either result in some debasement of that franchise or result in it taking a bit of a swoop and a soar.
Time will tell and I will certainly be watching !

- Timothy McVeigh Executed 18 Years Ago
-
I remember the day Army veteran turned domestic terrorist Timothy McVeigh was executed.
Timothy James McVeigh 1995
April 23, 1968 – June 11, 2001
In light of the speedy resolution of the prosecution and his cooperation there almost appeared to be a countdown by the entire country.
This young fellow who colluded with Terry Nichols and Michael Fortier to take out the Alfred P Murrah Federal Building as an act of protest using Ammonium nitrate and nitromethane ignited in a truck parked adjacent to the building.
They acted in retaliation for the Ruby Ridge and Waco siege as well as other government raids ... and elements of US foreign policy.
The devastation was shocking and the maiming of individuals and loss of life to the tune of 168 killed over 680 injured was a difficult matter to comprehend, particularly in light of the fact that the truck was close to a daycare center located there.
His co conspirators didn't get off lightly either. Nichols is serving multiple life terms for his part and Fortier served 12 years and was released.

Neal E Boyd
November 18, 1975 – June 10, 2018
Neal Evans Boyd was a young man from Missouri who became a contestant on America's Got Talent singing opera.
I remember his interaction with the host, Jerry Springer and how sensitive Mr Springer was in his interaction with the young man with tears streaming down his face that he was trying hard to suppress ...
He also did a number of pop selections after winning an emotional third season of that program.
He gave the distinct impression that he was pursuing this for his mama, whom he loved very much.
On June 10, 2018, he passed at the age of 42 in Sikeston, Missouri from what was established to be a combination of heart and kidney failure, compounded by liver disease.
His career was noted by his vocal clarity, presence and projection as well as generosity and extensive donations to charity.
He never forgot who he was or from where he came.
He did all manner of spots for various interests and was an enthusiastic and optimistic citizen of the world and patriot of the United States of America.

- World Brain Tumor Day
-
In my career I have encountered a number of individuals with brain tumors. They exhibited a variety of deficits in sensory and motor skills and all in all they were a heart wrenching bunch with whom to work.
In the medical environment you are supposed to suspend all feelings otherwise and tend to business. This is something I did.
However, that time after work was revisited with events of the previous day and I have to admit an inability to cope with certain aspects of my duties during that off time ... particularly while working with younger persons and children in particular.
It's a difficult matter to stop being a person even though the workaday world requires it. So you do what you can in that regard and try to cry it all out when nobody is looking.
Today is World Brain Tumor Day. Held under the auspices of Deutsche Hirntumorhilfe e.V. (German Brain Tumor Association) which provides information and support to brain tumor patients. It is held as a day of commemoration and tribute to those patients and their families for that difficulty they endure with the course of their illness. The day promotes interdisciplinary approaches to current therapy.

- World Day Against Speciesism
-
Today is the World Day Against Speciesism, said to be a form of discrimination based on which species an individual may have membership.
Now this connotation of increased importance of any species over another is pretty much a human contrivance ... I feel likely created by peta and other faulty rights groups attempting to place human attributes on animals or plants or whatever ...
I personally feel that man was endowed with dominion over the Earth and that includes all animals in compliance with those laws layed out in Leviticus.
The entirety of "The day being designed to remind people that speciesism, like racism and sexism, has no place in a civilized society." is about as faulty as someone telling me I can't have a piece of meat or partake of vegetables because even though they are of lower phyla in the big scheme of things I should treat them as equals.
There are companion animals. There are food animals. Some animals cross boundaries and are companion animals up to that point food becomes scarce.
At any rate, peta can take a flying leap and I don't partake of attributing high order attributes to lesser species.
Food animals are simply that. Food.

- Memorials for the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests
-
I remember the Tianamen Square protests.
I remember the young man facing down the tank which attempted to go around him.
I saw the aftermath which consisted of individuals who were smeared upon the pavement by the weight of tracked vehicles ordered to run them down.
I remember the martyrs of democracy in China and how it made absolutely no difference.
This is the same type situation the democratic party would force upon The Republic were we to permit it.
So on this day when we take pause to remember the recurring atrocities of the Chinese government in power we should always remember that ruthlessness with which they treat their own people and surely we will never be treated better in our interactions.
This is why there is theft of intellectual property. This is why there is hacking and the pilfering of whatever may be there. Only now are we realizing that the bulk of our internet infrastructure is produced by the Chinese.
How stupid can we be in the long run?
I'm neither organizing nor participating in any memorial projects regarding the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests which ultimately led to the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.
However, I still remember.

- Reminiscing about John Pruett's recent Birthday
-
I've been reflecting on my late stepfather, John Pruett because his birthday was last May 30.
He had his idiosyncratic ways about him, as we all do but he was a good man and took me as his own at a time when I was mostly foundering, adrift in a multitude of mistakes.
It was his idea to apply for my present job ... even though my supposed "best" friend at that time said I would never be hired.
That only goes to show you that you should pick your advisors with extreme care.
The road is populated with those who know nothing except the mainstream media party line — which has proven itself to be largely faulty with the advent of Trump and the collusion and subterfuge of governement officials pursuing political agenda on our dime.
Alas, John has been gone since January, 27 2016 and each successive day we all seem to miss him more.
But rather than wish for him to be back here with us it is more suitable to await our turn to be with him whenever that time might come.
No man knoweth the hour.
"But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only."
Matthew 24:36
