Something has broken
Something has broken. So many of the great ideals in politics, religion, and leadership have become tarnished. Now is the time to gather ourselves, to take back all the power that we have given away so cheaply to outside voices. We need to heal our listening so that we come to hear the inner music of our lives.

This won’t be funny to anyone but me
Yes, my inner five year old is ROFL.

To hell with the Democratic process, right?
“He’s winning the Democratic process, but that is virtually irrelevant to the general election.” – Harold Ickes, a senior adviser to Hillary Clinton, speaking about Barack Obama’s success in the democratic party primary season.
Is this the kind of democratic nominee that the nation deserves? To obtain the nomination in contravention of “the Democratic process”! Sounds a bit like the current administration doesn’t it?
Thank about that for awhile.
Who’d have thought…
… that Iggy Pop would be be best looking person in this photo grouping?

Who needs a movie? Do you need a movie? Fred Spencer Productions makes movies. Do you need a web site? Fred and Sharon can help. Just go to http://fredandsharonsmovies.com/ (temporarily offline).
What aboot my strong suspicion that Fred Spencer is Max Headroom in retirement in the witness protection program?!
A video movie (redundant much?) could improve your life!

Kentucky Lawmaker Wants to Make Anonymous Internet Posting Illegal

By Kellie Wilson E-mail | BiographyKentucky Representative Tim Couch filed a bill this week to make anonymous posting online illegal.
The bill would require anyone who contributes to a website to register their real name, address and e-mail address with that site.
Their full name would be used anytime a comment is posted.
If the bill becomes law, the website operator would have to pay if someone was allowed to post anonymously on their site. The fine would be five-hundred dollars for a first offense and one-thousand dollars for each offense after that.
Representative Couch says he filed the bill in hopes of cutting down on online bullying. He says that has especially been a problem in his Eastern Kentucky district.
Action News 36 asked people what they thought about the bill.
Some said they felt it was a violation of First Amendment rights. Others say it is a good tool toward eliminating online harassment.
Represntative [sic] Couch says enforcing this bill if it became law would be a challenge.
Tim Couch has no idea about the reality of the internet. Not even a Daily Show understanding.
It would be funny if it wasn’t so sad.
