5 Things My World Showed Me Today: Novelty



#1 When it boils down to it, The People hate Wall Street.


I saw this Twitter today:




#2 The craziness of the world is "speeding up" just as Terence Mckenna (my favorite researcher, scientist and philosopher) thought it would. Terence died of cancer in the year 2000. 



(Terrence comes in at about 3 minutes.  Be patient, there are worse ways of spending 7 minutes of your time.)


#3  London is burning.  Burning with an outrageous need and desire for change.


#4  America is burning.  Burning with an outrageous need and desire for change.


#5  Mother Earth is burning.  And she will burn until she has finished cleansing herself.  So please stop putting out the fires.  The longer you fight her, the longer she will persist at doing her JOB.  It is only natural.


"Be good.
Be patient.
Be in the moment."

5 Things My World Showed Me Today


  1. Toys "R" Us is gearing up to hit consumers with a massive, pricey fall and winter holiday season.  Be forewarned.
  2. Toys "R" Us is like the government: They think kids are robots.
  3. Every parent has the same complaint: "He/She got the pillow pet, took a look at, adored it for its cuteness and hasn't bothered with it since Christmas."
  4. The government thinks I haven't noticed the gas prices creeping to $5/gallon again.
  5. People are like hamsters.  That wheel is addictive, huh?

"Be good;
Be patient;
Or just be too drunk to be held accountable."

FYI:  The latter never worked for me, but YOU could be the exception; there's one to every rule, right?  Right!

5 Things My World Showed Me Today


  1. You may pay Uncle Sam on time, but he pays YOU when (or if) HE feels like it.
  2. Once you've gained your mental freedom, the world will go to great lengths to try to steal it back...yet again.
  3. No one gives a good-whoot-nanny about how they affect the larger picture, taking great risks with the lives of others in all kinds of scenarios.
  4. Well-rounded doctors are hard to find, but doctors come a dime a dozen.
  5. Healthcare patients with patience are hard to find, and one phony can destroy the lives of thousands.  Thousands!
"Be good.
Be a good patient.
Be a good patient with patience."

5 Things My World Showed Me Today

1. So...France doesn't like veils. Uh...okay. Only men. Only men.

2. April 11, 1954 was named the most uneventful day in history. Poor April 11, 1954, I weep with you and those BORN on that day who's lives must've been or still remain uneventful as well.

3. Government remains. We The People are so lucky. (insert sarcasm)

4. China hates Christianity.

5 Things My World Showed Me Today

1. California is having major issues with criminals within its Psychiatric Hospitals...like murder...and the fact that violence is up 37%.

2. NATO is "unknowingly" blowing up rebel Libyan forces. The rebels say they've informed NATO of their tanks, NATO says they had no knowledge of the tanks.

3. Milk has killed babies in Japan. I heard an excerpt on NPR this morning where a guy said that people are basically being paranoid about the radioactivity issue. Oh...okay!

4. I've gotta addmire the crazed Republicans' determination on the budget. It might serve America more if it were for the betterment of "We The People" and not their own agenda.

5. Portugal needs financial assistance; so do I. And so does the majority of college-bound Americans. But guess which group is more likely to get help from America? And it won't be "We The People."

5 Things My World Showed Me Today

  1. Beijing, China believes outlawing luxury “terms” will enslave their people into thinking all are equal, while allowing luxury promos on their soap operas. 
  2. Blockbusters refuses to die quietly like Borders bookstores.
  3. Adorable squirrels attempting to dash across the street early mornings should fear overtly-caffeinated moms in unassuming family-styled cars.

5 Things My World Showed Me Today

1. Some dude on NPR's Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual/Transgender (LGBT) show "This Way Out" believes that America hasn't seen angry gay men, and that if we had we'd fear their societal powers more.

2. Again on "This Way Out" I learned that the LGBT doesn't have a Civil Rights headman, like a MLK, Jr.

3. I know many lesbians, gays and bisexuals (no transgenders, though) and I guess I was just a dumb, ignorant, black straight woman for just viewing them as fellow friends and countrypeople.

4. Everyone (even LGBTs) want to be validated, loved and appreciated for their differences, not just Native Americans, Negroes and Puerto Ricans.

5. Connecticut weather is confused. As it always is.

2. Michelle Obama must've okayed this choice because behind every great man...

3. The radiation contamination issue is bigger and more relevant than any world government is willing to admit to its people.

4. I look like "Boo Boo The Fool."

5. No one is gonna give up driving to boycott the ever rising gas prices.

  3. Spring’s on the calendar but snow and cold are in Connecticut’s forecast.
  4. Year after year we Northeasterners act as if it should be warmer.
  5. Mother Nature could give a shyt about Northeasterners’ feelings about the cold air’s war with the warm calendar date.

5 Things My World Showed Me Today

1.  Cobra's like to take vacations too.

2.  Moammar (Muammar, Muʿammar) al-Gadhafi (Gaddafi, Qaḏḏāfī) holds 2 consistencies:
         i.  his middle name is Muhammad (across the board);
        ii.  he refuses to give in.

3.  "911 is a joke" in many areas.

4.  Too much fear and you'll be afraid of your own shadow.

5.  When it comes to student loans and paying for college, no matter what, have a plan A, B, C, D, E....whatever it takes to NEVER have to take out a loan, even if that means community college.


Be well.

Be patient.

Be in the moment.
