For a Moment..
…put your personal politics aside… if you contemplate how Russia/Putin operates in the world of today watch on Netflix the doc: ICARUS. it begins so innocuously, a non-professional biker who wants to document on camera can he beat the system like Lance Armstrong did. Hang in there for the first hour as he shoots up and works with scientists on how to accomplish this.. and then be part of the entire Russian doping scene. Watch at the point where the scientists comments on Putin invading the Ukraine. Look at the time line then look at USA politics. Just sayin’
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icarus – if you want more background on the reference to Icarus read this entire post. ‘There is nothing new under the sun”.

Following yesterday’s missed word edit – ‘why’ rather than ‘what’ am on the lookout for a new editor. Sheesh!
Can Only Imagine
Must have been a sort of Rocky-scenario when it happened. On my way to the garage to go to my volunteer job, had a container of compost-able materials to put in my ‘bin’. My bin has been ripped asunder by what I assume was one ‘woke’ bear, with a winter hunger who said to himself – “Let me at it”. He didn’t eat the loam at the bottom, but he shortened the stack by about half. Because he ripped apart the surround will have to wait for thawing weather to put the entire apparatus back together again. He was not interested in the avocado pit Guess his mother never made him try unfamiliar foods.
He’s Baaaaak!
Between snow days, was out picking up the garden and rearranging the pot experiment that may be a failure and there, getting my attention was the sweet, small chipmunk munching on something in plain sight.

Given their colorful garments in shades of reds, flowers works, but it wasn’t the original thought.
Wild Wild Country
on Netflix. This documentary is about the invasion into Oregon of the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and his followers. It is well done. i missed the entire event as it happened and never really understood. Not so sure i understand it all now, but at least it is clearer. I don’t know how the decision was made for Oregon all the way from India. That was not covered in the doc But why does a religious leader need 20 + RR’s. Then to top it off, the campus is now home to another cult, Young Life.
Can You Tell
Been watching a show that I really think is good. The result? Wearing stiff collars straight up daily!
Aboard This Boat?
With all the cold and snow, I’m wondering if there is a Jonah in the midst here! Someone needs to ferret him/her out!! Enough already!
