But who gives a shit? It's just Detroit. What the hell can it DO for america anymore?

 

Become a new center for solar and wind power but that would actually make sense so why do it

 

I heard an interesting point made on a community forum in Detroit from 9/7/2013 re-broadcast on C-SPAN tonight: they have tons of money to save the Big 3, supposedly the primary drivers of Detroit and the Upper Midwest's employment picture, but no money to save Detroit, even though the automotive industry's screw-ups are far worse.

 

Who are you misbehaving with?

 

Trix are for kids

 

Solar and wind power? And go against the god of money through oil?
Might as well just nuke the whole place while we are at it.

I wonder if the oil companies will cry once we run out of oil.
If they weren't a bunch of buttmunchers concerned with profits now, they would see that oil is indeed going to go extinct and when that happens all of the beloved profits will be in alternative sources of energy.

What a bunch of near-sighted buttmunchers.

 

words...so powerful so controlling they can lift spirits and kill dreams. they are so easy to dispense, they are used to accentuate or disguise. they can be disgusting...satisfying....tasteful....wasteful....beautiful...ugly. Now ACTIONS are like the BIG JOKER in the game of spades....its the only guaranteed book. be a action seeker, words with no action are like an empty cup when your thirsty.

 

Down syndrome or not ,....the father has to get a pass for his immediate impulse protective reaction.......On the other hand,...If the relatives in control of a mentally challenged adult is confident enough to take him out in public at the risk of him kicking a strangers kid,.. then they must be ready to absorb shocking consequences......

 

If he has that sort of impulsive behavior, they should have had someone right on top of him. It's sad, but I totally understand the father.

 

This is a friend of mine's status on Facebook today:

While everyone is putting up their "Don't forget" statuses, let's not forget the US Patriot Act, NSA spying on its own citizens, TSA full body pat downs at airports, clear "purses" at NFL games, militarized police brutality...

Do you feel safe yet? Do you?

Lest we forget what we've given up in the last 12 years....

Spoken hundreds of years ago by Benjamin Franklin and extremely relevant today:

“Those who surrender freedom for security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.”

We should always remember this day. But we should also never forget how this day stripped us of our freedoms and stripped our economy out from under us.

That is all.

 

Very relevant to us in the UK too,

 

Liked.

 

I should change my avatar, but to what?

 

Russell Brand talks like a boss. Hugo Boss just can't handle the truth. You don't like it change your darn name!

 

I like it!

 

Argh back in the dating game again lol.

Have coffee next Wednesday with some bloke and dinner and drinks with another the following Wednesday. Dinner and drinks guy has tickets on himself and likens himself to denzel, so of course I'm playing it cool and unavailable. I don't think he's ever had a women do that to him before...very amusing

 

Has tickets on himself = Australian slang for having a high opinion of oneself.
