Saturday night at the Uptown

Ever since I first heard it, I've marveled that parents could name their child, their son Adonis.

This was there Saturday night, anyway.

Who could but wish them well?

America, what you've become

Oh, and a warmonger. The world's warmonger.

Happy Earth Day.

Quote of the day--on America

“Your republic will be as fearfully plundered and laid waste by barbarians in the 20th century as the Roman Empire in the 5th century; with this difference, that the Huns and Vandals that ravaged the Roman Empire came from without, and that your Huns and Vandals will have been engendered within your own country, by your own institutions.”

--Thomas Macaulay, British Historian, 1857

Work to end campaign contributions.

Let's get our country back.  Back for us. Back for the people.

Hopefully not the start of a trend for thinking of Kansas City

There is a big story on MSN news right now about a guy who got a big KC Chiefs tattoo:

Dear God, let's not let this be the beginning of the way this area is thought of or remembered.

Story:  Whoa!!! Kansas City fan goes all-out with a huge scalp tattoo

Play loud.

And by all means, sing along.

As I said earlier today, Freddie Mercury would surely be proud.

Quote of the day

Too many Americans don't understand the continuity

 

If you don't understand this line of thought, check out the program on Douglas Blackmon's

Slavery by Another Name, after his book of the same name.

I'm so old...

I remember when YouTube only put up 3 minute singles on the site, and not full albums:



THAT old.

Who knew?

I mean, I've said on here before I'm old but I'm no way this old...

Early, freakish Spring?

 

The weather forecast for the next week, once we get beyond the cold of these few days, looks to be pushing mid to upper 40's, at least, with one forecast showing around 50. The above is from KCTV5's forecast for the next week. Their forecast for the next couple months show they expect a warmer than normal March.

 

With all that, could we be expecting this, then, to be the beginning of an early--and rather freakish--Springtime?

 

Let's hope not. Let's absolutely hope not.
