"Happy Thanksgivikah-!"

Well, we have some words to put in our vocabulary like “Thanksgivikah” and also talking about preparing the “Minurkey”.   There was even that Jewish style song about the minurkey that I honestly wish Nicole Sandler had played more of.  Nicole is thankful for gay adoptions.  It seems as if “November 23^rd” is “Adoption Day”.  It seems even in Florida that gay couples virtually have the right to adopt children or at least apply as a “co parent”.   I’m sure Dennis Prager is having fits about now.  Nicole is thankful that Harry Reid finally grew a pair and decided to take back the majority’s voting power, which apparently was done just last Thursday, though it seems longer ago than that.  Nicole is thankful that Senator Bernie Sanders is thinking of running for President.  As someone on the radio said recently “We don’t have a two party system; we have a One Party system, and that’s why the establishment fights so hard against the creation of any other political party”.  It’s almost a sick religion for us American, and like a religion it’s based more on near “doctrinal” notions than it is on any practical necessity.  But of course if you’re in a Hobby Lobby store you won’t find any Jewish feast supplies in there because it’s a Christian run store and they want you to know it.  Therefore they don’t want any of their employees being covered for birth control pills.  Perhaps this is a silly thought, but what law says you have to USE a service- - just because it’s covered by your insurance policy.  I’m sure there are a lot of things on my medical insurance I’ll never use.  Do Jehovah’s Witnesses have the right to deny their employees blood transfusions, even if it’s to save their lives?  I’ve thought about this today and from a strictly legal standing, if this case ever goes to the Supreme Court - - it seems pretty obvious that we have certain laws for the private sector, such as Religion, and quite another for entities in the public sector that are out to make a business profit.  Business has to comply with all sorts of rules.  If I were president I’d say “Just make any damn rules you want”, but we live in the real world here and even this Court has to respect legal precident.   Then there is the case of the Pizza Hut manager who wanted to give his employees the day off on Thanksgiving and the corporate higher ups said “Oh no you don’t.  If you do that, you will be fired”.  Why in God’s name in a small town like Elkert, Intiana- - do you have to sell pizza on Thanksgiving Day if you don’t want to.  Every congressman gets a whole week off for every holiday and you know these corporate big whigs are spending the day with their families.  It’s this sickness we have these days in pursuit for the almighty dollar.  And if Pope Francis wants to issue a 256 page “bull” or whatever it’s called condemning the evils of capitalism, then God bless him.  Rush Limbaugh is right.  Some “force” IS directing Pope Francis.  It’s called the Bible.  It’s called the Holy Spirit.  “Ever hear of God, Rush?”  For Rush Limbaugh to attack the Catholic Church the way he did is suicidal.  After all we need all those good Catholics to vote for Newt Gingrich or Pat Buchannon the next time they run for President.   

 Mario was talking about Social pathology in the last hour and whether there is something organically amiss in the brains of criminal types that renders them unable to empathize with anyone other than themselves.  Some things are easier to understand than others.  For instance I can almost see a mafia hit squad “operating professionally” and moving in to bump somebody off they don’t know and obviously will never meet.  It’s quite another thing like on the soap opera for Kate and Samantha to conspire to “cover up a murder”especially when the victim is not dead with, and it’s a victim both of them know well, so the police will know the first people to put on the suspects list.   I guess Kate didn’t like Nick because he kept consistently making so much money for her that it just got boring after a while.  And so now “Not telling the whole truth about a personal matter- - merits the Death Penalty”.  That’s even worse than what President Clinton faced.  But I digress.  I used to believe environment was everything and that people learned everything they know, including the nature of how they express emotions.  And a lot of research has been done with Simians in this area.  (That’s “monkeys” for you people in Rio Linda)  In autistic children they speak of “reestablishing emotional pathways.   Returning to the soap opera again- - I found the way E J Di Mira was talking with Eric very disturbing today.  Here is a man who is completely tone deaf when it comes to even the most basic human morality or compassion.  I’d get out of that house too.  It’s like talking to a demon or something.  People with true sociopathic traits are scarey; there’s no doubt about that.   How can you go into something like slave trading as a profession and consider yourself at all “normal”?

From yesterday in my notes - - Alex Jones apparently believes that the great majority of these mass shootings are the fault of liberals, because somehow liberals are Violent at heart.  Supposedly this is because they are into drugs and the occult and all.  Apparently Alex Jones thinks Charles Manson is your typical mass murderer which he certainly is not.  We heard all sorts of things in that “2016” movie that didn’t come to pass.  If President Obama ever got a second term he’d be unstoppable because he’d never again have to run for election and he could do whatever he wanted to in terms of executive orders.  And he was more assuredly going to conthiscate the guns of every American citizen.  Of course I also heard that because of some carbon energy tax California has now- - that California’s economy would collapse and that hasn’t happen.  But as the Who sang it, “Fools start the Roomers; none of them are True”.

In better news my blogger numbers have apparently been re-figured upward, because yesterday (?) was a 108 figure and “today” (?) was a 124.  And I kind of think they are a day behind because the dates don’t line up.  I’m glad to hear it.  President Obama’s visit continued and went off without a hitch.  There weren’t any assassinations or anything.  Apparently the President was talking about how the Hollywood industry is still a source of a lot of good paying jobs and suggested people apply for all of the technical production positions now open.

Mario is on right now and he was talking about these big companies like the DWP that do automatic deductions of your account and take $1,800 out and you have to talk to five different people to try and get it back.  But they won’t cover any overdraft fees you may have incurred or your time and inconvenience.  They’ll slap a late fee on you but you can’t summarily slap a late fee on them.  They can record your conversation with them, but if YOU tell them YOU too are recording the conversation, Mario says if you try that, they’ll say they’re hanging up on you.  Certain things may not be crimes, but they are definitely torts.  If you are guilty of a theft in the equity world, they do not even take into account criminal intent, but only economic damage.   Of course you remember about the story about the man who put solar panels on his roof and used those instead of the utility grid, but they "estamated his charges" and charged him a whopping bill.  At other times when the meter isn't working, rightfully they should let you have that power for free.  But instead- - for instance - - if perhaps others were living temporarily in your home at the time and you were gone and then you return and get stuck with the bill- - you see something like $1,800 in "estamated charges".  And by the way I hate business people having to send "Tax Due estaments" on an quarterly basis.  If I were President I'd abolish that requirement.  It's silly and it cheats them out of the use of their own money till the next Tax Day on April 15th.  In like manner if the government withdraws too much money from your payroll check, in addition to the tax refund check, the government should also send you an Interest check for the use of your money all year long.  Isn't it terrible when you make people be morally consistent?
