Nero was said to have played a violin ( in reality if he played anything it was probably a lyre- or he sang- after all,according to legend, he was bonkers ) while Rome burned.
Bush and McCain ate cake while Americans drowned in New Orleans- and they smiled as they did it.
Guess which scenerio I find to be far more creepy?

It’s sort of hard to follow this thing with Georgia and Russia when most of our “Reporters” can’t even pronounce the names of the people involved
or
the
places involved-
Not that it matters to our media.
They’re not big picture, detail-oriented types…in case you haven’t noticed.
So I’m going to help you out because when I took Russian History, I learned it from a teacher who…
get this
actually lived in Russia.
Plus I like to make politics easy to understand so here it goes:
These Guys
are willing to risk starting World War III with
this guy
to get this guy
Elected President.
Got it?
Good.
Yeah.
It’s that simple.
While Capuchin monk Brother Cesare Bonizzio does touch on faith and religion in his music, he says that he ” is not seeking to draw people to Catholicism. Instead, he told the BBC, “I do it to convert people to life, to understand life, to grab hold of life, to savour it and enjoy it. Full stop.”
from a BBC Interview
When you write weird stories and have a collection of shrunken heads ( and for the 50 billion-th time YES THEY ARE FAKE! ) people send you weird news stories and ask you what you think of them.
You know that look your parents had on their face the first time they had to try and explain what made boys and girls different from each other? That’s the look people have on their faces when they ask me about the severed human feet encased in running shoes that have been washing up in Vancouver BC.
Okay.
I’m macabre- it’s who I am and what I write about but I am not without empathy and I’m very aware of the fact that those feet were attached to someones son or daughter, wife or husband.
So I would never walk up to someone like ME and ask a question like that.
Because, you know- I have respect for the dead.
As to the living- well, if someone asks me about body parts washing up on a beach I know darn well they’re not looking for solace so I say,
” I think that the rabbits are sending us a message. “

Fish wrapped up in an article of clothing of the person who has been hit, whacked, killed, was then wrapped in newspaper and delivered to the capos, signifying that the member was dead, and at the bottom of the sea. Its a Sicilian Message – He sleep with the fishes–from Godfather. |

What makes good art?
I think it should make your mouth say, ” ahhh yes- ” I also believe that good art should agree with not only your eyes but your sense of smell and taste and hearing as well.
In short I think that
Good Art should bring all those things together where they can have a party in your brain.
That’s what I think makes good Art.
So I happen to think that the following is Art…It’s Sushi Art and it must be true Art because the Internet says so HERE
Besides, you wouldn’t be able to sit down at a table look at this and not enjoy it.
And if you can’t you’re a Chuckle- Head who needs to lighten up.

So it’s Saturday and sunny outside and here I am reading and writing.
What can I say.
It’s a perfect day.
And here are some things I’ve looked at that I would like to share with you.
Enjoy!
A Woman, A Story, I know how it ends…
There’s a post here called
Life Art and Everything…
it made me a fan

Some things just click for you when you read them…

In the two Part Doctor Who episode ” The Forest of The Dead” and ” Silence In The Library” evil creatures are hiding in a city that houses a computer-
a big computer, a huge computer, a living computer.
And those evil creatures that feed off of organic material ( well, human flesh ) are living in….
books.
Lots and lots of books.
Books that are made out of wood pulp.
Paper.
This made me think:
When we give kudos to the new ” Sci Fi ” stories, those kudos get tossed around like confetti because woman can now shoot big guns and sometimes even get to be Captains on actual spaceships and have ripley muscles just like their male counter parts.
But come on how is that cutting edge exactly?
Some writers just figured out that you can substitute male characters for female characters because really, they can do the same exact job.
Sort of like real life.
Anyway.
In this Doctor Who episode we did see something cutting edge, we saw something unique we saw a story that takes place in the future ( well, that’s a guess where Doctor Who is concerned-but stick with me here ) and in that future were books.
Books with pages that you can turn, pages that crackle and pop when they’re new and whisper when they get old.
How cutting edge is that?
Very.
After all.
A Science Fiction story about Time Travel had at it’s core…books…
books in a Library.
In these times when we walk around with a phone that is sort of like having a second brain that you can hold in your hand ( also a addressed in Doctor Who episode: Planet Of The Ood )
I found ” The Planet Of The Ood “episode to be more of a shot across the bow of the hi-tech ship everyone I know seems to be sailing on then then to be story a story about slavery or disease.
So I will freely admitt I thought is was a riot when my Cell Phone enslaved friends watched this and didn’t seem to see the comparison between themselves and the Ood and the guy who gets ” turned “.
I think that seeing a story about books
made me realize
how much I would miss them if they were gone.
So that must mean on some level
I must feel like they’re being taken away…made irrelevant.
When did that happen?
The funny thing is, The Doctor would know.
Doctor Who.
It has more then a real hot guy playing the lead role.
It happens to have some excellent stories too.
Enjoy…
and THINK next time you watch it.

How boring is the world we live in?
I’m glad you asked because I have THE answer.
It is so boring that
no one made a big deal out of the fact that
Hula Hoops have been with us for 50 years.
FIFTY YEARS.
So get your Hoops out and Hula Already
What are you waiting for?
The Anniversary of the Yo- Yo
which I’ll bet gets ignored too…
Geeze.
It’s all about words today here at the Bones.
If you could banish a word from the English Language what would it be?
Me.
I would flush the word boing.
Heck.
I wouldn’t even bother to flush it, I’d take a plunger and jam it down the first toilet I could get too before I could stomp it out of existance.
Who the hell came up with that one?
Boing.
It serves no darn purpose.
Oh and while I’m at it I say we loose Awesome…I don’t hate the word Awesome I just think it would be funny to see what happens if people can’t short cut a view by heading down ‘awesome avenue’ instead of EXPLAINING why they think something is so spectacular it sucks the air out fo their lungs and makes them feel that the Universe is truly a very big place and that feeling sends a tingle up and down their spine.
So … think about it what word would you like to lose?
