Freedom

I don’t think I get it. In Canada we believe in freedom of expression; also freedom of religion; also freedom and equality for women: this is the Canadian way. But we demand that women who want to wear a veil to our citizenship ceremony must remove because it is offensive to Canadians. Also to Harper Neo Cons. Is this not Harper being wildly inconsistent? I do think Justin Trudeau is right in finding a connection between these contrary positions and the slippery slope to scapegoatism and the genocide we lived through during the first world war. Who said it could not happen here?

News from the front line of life

We had a great plan;we would stay at the Hampton overnight in Sudbury, and take our car in for warranty service, get a ride to the airport, catch our plane at BB airport, pick up our rental car and drive to London, via Woodstock, where there are a couple of special food stores we could visit, and on to our hotel in London. The first part went off like a charm, smooth and pleasant and we even saved the parking fees for our own car which stayed in Sudbury to get fixed while we traveled. But here we are, still at the airport. Our flight was cancelled and we have been booked on the later flight at 3:50. Now, are we very lucky are unlucky? If we can actually get to London today, we can get to my appt. tomorrow at 8:45 am., in which case the whole exercise will not be wasted. So we are now in the Sudbury airport sitting in the sky lounge where Brenda just ate breakfast: two poached eggs, ham, tomatoes, mint tea.
BJ has just won my agreement that should we actually get to BB airport today, we can go to Planet Organic to buy some breakfast for her like kefir, organic vegs, maybe other stuff like no sugar pepperoni.
So Hoi will be pleased to hear that I just started my essay on Morality in the hands of God driven Ideology government challenging Biology.
In 2008, a Chinese man butchered, beheaded and dismembered a 22 yr old sleeping beside him and held up this young man’s head to show the murderer’s triumph over Aliens. He said voices from God told him to do it because this was his purpose as a new incarnation of Christ. He was called a paranoid schizophrenic and judged Criminally insane. Not so the executioner for Isis whose God also told him to behead prisoners. Though these reasons were equally religious he was called “barbaric” (which means speaking a foreign language), evil, and a very bad person indeed.  Biology emerged from Evolution and became part of what made various species what they are now, including Human species who, because they are a story Species, could invent Morality. If we replace Biology, or science in general with Morality we will find one Morality that fits all. How moral is Monsanto and its Round Up Reason and ownership of Nature and its fight to prevent Human knowledge of the contents of food prepared for Humans to buy and eat. Harper and Hilary Clinton do not care about science, public interest or Human Rights.
I think it is time for me to get up, walk around and look for a bottle of safe drinking water.  What do you care about?

Kefir and Habiru

Lost in the mists of time, from Mesopotamia to the Steppes of the Caucasus are many ancient, priceless remedies arising from timeless adaptation and evolution by Human beings for their effective survival. Lost with them are the origins of the Habiru, the most effectively adaptive of human tribes who specialized in Survival by adopting a meta study of consciousness about survival itself. Among the best Health remedies devised or discovered by the Habiru were Kefir, and Half done Kosher dill pickles. Many stories are repeated in Folklore which share the idea that on the great trade routes like the Silk road Jewish traders took their Camels loaded with amazing artifacts and because many of these traders were also physicians they also took, administered and sold or traded medicines. Liquids were transported in bags like sheep stomachs, for instance milk was transported this way, leading to the discovery that milk carried and stirred this way by the gait of camels would ferment and become what we call Kefir. Experimenting by Jewish physicians led to the long list of human disorders of the body that could be effectively treated by Kefir. So precious was the gift of Kefir by Nature that the ancients decided it must never be sold. You could cultivate and give it away, but not sell it. You see since it was a gift of nature at no charge you must not look a gift camel or its burden in the mouth.
Since this amazing medicine is found in the prehistory time of my people and I have rediscovered it for myself and been gifted by a kind neighbour on the Island with some “seed’ OR Kefirans, I am now growing my own. I eat some every day. And though I do not have a camel I took my new batch of Kefir for a ride in my Korean Hyundai. It just loved this and is ready for harvesting today. The koreans are the world masters of Kimchee, fermented food, and though I personally believe my Kefir knows my car is Korean I do not insist other Camels, or cars or horses would not work also.

Feb. 2, Marriage

As a certified clinical Marriage and Family Therapist I have reached the conclusion that the successful marriage is made up of two people who share a mutual admiration and gratitude. If you do not have this find it by a mutual patience and effort. It may take a long time. If you never find this or do not want to it comes down to would you prefer to be together with this truth or would you rather function apart. My view is that avoiding this truth or honesty creates more toxin that health.

Jan. 29, War Lords

Before national governments there were War Lords with huge private armies who helped these war lords get rich by conquering and stealing. Some were biggies like Ghengis Kahn or Tammerlaine and some were small like the many who gangs who had private armies in Afghanistan. Then there were democratic governments who won by election. These elections can be won by the rich and then we have elected governments helping the rich and the Corporations get more rich. Now it is harder than ever for the not rich, the 99%, to get enough to survive, pay the rents, the taxes, the advertising costs built into cost of product, like oil, cars, wood, and steel. Money buys power which buys unlimited sex, unlimited housing, unlimited food, health care and toys and service. When the Mob was thrown out of Cuba of course they whined and cried and still do

Jan. 29, Greece

The Greeks are voting against austerity. But those voting have no money. The rich love austerity because that is how they got rich. When Robin Hood reversed this economic principle he was opposing the economic principle that has always prevailed: corner the wealth, own the labour and resources, and Keep the poor, poor. It always works. Never let this principle be diluted by compassion, good sense, a love of peace, the comfort of fairness and justice, the freedom from being hated by the poor, hungry or hurting, and steering clear of anything that might hint of Public Good, Equality or Justice for All. Trust Harper to get you to Harperism.

Jan. 13, Harper

Superstupid Harper actually believed that Canada was exclusively about oil. It is part of his stupid, mindless, fundamentalist, tea Party background. See Bush, Cheney, Rice, Manning and all the other 2 dimensional psychopaths who run our world. But the people who taught him did not believe this while he did. Which is why I call him super stupid. Imagine electing one of the most stupid people in the Country to be the Prime, yes prime minister. We collectively did that and will now consider doing it again, as we did with Mulroney.

Dec. 28, Lies and Greed

The Energy industy lies about the restoration of an ecological destruction. They cannot restore the Boreal forest they destroy as they promise. This is a lie. They cannot restore the habitat and therefor the animal populations that were destroyed with these ecosystems: Caribou; wolf; coyote; beaver etc. They are committed to the desertification of the earth and the destruction of species. They do not care about this. We will lose this battle for the earrh taking place now. Lies and Greed will win.
