Off The Wall
I’ll give it to you off the bounce
‘Cause I am not able to make the rounds.
Tarry and hear, tarry and hear,
The wall has ears, the wall has ears.
You’ll rue the tears, in all those years,
The day you forgot what big ears it’s got.
I’ll give it to you off the bounce
‘Cause I am not able to make the rounds.
Tarry and hear, tarry and hear,
The wall has ears, the wall has ears.
You’ll rue the tears, in all those years,
The day you forgot what big ears it’s got.
Whom to blame?
It is normal for us
not to blame the weather for the natural disasters
that we experience.
Naturalmente!
Because calamities due to weather occur naturally.
We blame people instead
because people are the ones who can alleviate
or reduce the effects of these disasters to our sufferings.
The Texans have just pointed the blame to the owners of the
power company that failed to generate the emergency electricity
required to combat the cold freeze.
The power grid, or that station that distributes power
failed considerably.
Now, power generating stations produce more power than
necessary to supply its customers.
In those times when the demand is bigger than the station
can produce, it looks for another supply from another region.
This requires a power sharing agreement with the others.
This sharing is an automatic connection between power grids.
Texas has its own power grid and does not share power with
other generating stations.
So therefore there was not any other power grid to get
the emergency electricity from.
This power sharing was not adopted because the cold freeze
of this magnitude was not expected in Texas.
Consequently, the advanced windmill generators also froze
due to lack of anti-cold synthetic oil transmission gear systems
plus automatic heaters inside the windmills.
But then again, the weather has changed its habits these days.
Warm regions are having snowfalls,
Cold regions have experienced ice melts.
There must be something else that is causing this climate change.
And I daresay it is not merely a greenhouse effect.
My next post may blow your wits off
when I suggest the other cause for this weather tantrums.
Who or what is really to blame for this debacle?
The Power Grid?
The state government?
The green Project?
Or what else?
Whatever it is, there is no sense arguing about it.
People should shut up.
Lashing at one another will not solve the problem.
The Texans are suffering.
Grievously.
HELP THEM!
There goes the banana tree plant—
KERPLUNK!
I did say that whatever happens to the impeachment trial
the Republican Party would be in chaos.
More so when Trump promises to proceed with
what he has in mind.
People just got more scared.
More so with the minority groups.
After all they voted down Trump.
Him and his white supremacist supporters
now look upon the minority groups with condescension
and even vengeance.
A whole lot of those senators who voted to acquit Trump.
have inalienable ties with him.
They owe him their positions in politics and would never have
secured any other line of work asides from politics,
Serves them right.
Now the banana Republican Party will sink with
hostilities among its members.
It will not be a surprise
if there will be
a party within the party.
As for Trump, he may now
claim that he belongs to history.
(or what’s left of him after the IRS)
(better for the minority groups to start arming themselves)
We now witness the sad story
of Congress being attacked by a mob
incited by the Head of the Government.
This could not happen
in a Parliamentary form of government
where the head of the government,
the Prime Minister,
is actually confronted
by the opposition party
inside the Parliament.
The PM will surely not incite a mob
to attack the Parliament
where he also sits.
Two thumbs up
and a skip of the rope for Parliament.
(more ills coming up)
And so, after going thru the motions
of defending Trump,
the defense team now faces a Senate approval
of allowing witnesses on the stand.
These witnesses that
The House Impeachment Managers will call
would be those who would declare that
Trump did not incite them
on a mere “peaceful” protest only
and not a door and glass-breaking riot.
After all, Trump is already disowning them
as a mob that he did not incite.
The quandary of the witnesses is actually
a Republican quandary,
The party is now being labeled as a white supremacist
fascist party by none other than the minority groups,
or those groups that actually voted down Trump.
As I said,
whatever happens, the damage has been done!
Unless the Republicans
disentangle themselves
of Trump and his white supremacists,
the whole country will be thrown into a struggle
between the white supremacists
and the minorities.
The House Managers
for the impeachment of Trump
are doing A-OK.
But I say again
whatever happens
the damage has been done.
America is now in a volatile atmosphere.
In this Impeachment Trial alone
some Senators will vote from fear.
Only a few will vote from passion.
And thereafter, the Republican Party
will completely sink out of sight.
On the other hand people will come out
to praise Biden’s $1400 handout as heaven sent.

It seems that when we get into trouble
we broadcast our rights which,
to be more specific, our rights as promulgated
by the Constitution.
From which we cry out—-AMENDMENTS.
Here is the amendment which has become controversial
and which history can say that it has saved the country.
to wit; The right to bear arms.
Of course, the thing is the government control
of private people bearing arms.
Like this one girl that looks impregnable
what with the weapon she carries.
She holds a model Z-IAR 850 RPM semi or full auto rifle
that fires .223 Remington cartridges
and is an improvement over the M249.
(from Tactical Girls calendar Feb 2013)
And so, with no one sturdy shoulder to lean to,
the Republicans start a rigodon of no fixed partners.
it’s a shame.
The one leader they put up as President
messed up the country
and their pride, mostly,
when the Trump rioters went after them, too.
And now the infighting in the US Congress
has made the place more exciting to behold
than the brawling in the Japanese Diet.
The Republicans may need one clean,
sterilized somebody to raise the standard of unity.
Otherwise, a third political party may arise
from the melee.
(next : weapons)
Comes now a topic where people get confused,
and still some take advantage of.
Let me explain.
This post will emphasize
that there is no such thing as pro-abortion
nor such a thing as pro-life when used as a rule.
But there is such a thing as morality.
Abortion is killing,
no argument on this.
It is a free choice,
still no argument on this.
But it shall remain a free choice of the
woman concerned.
She may ask the doctor for advice
but it is still remains her choice.
Notice that I did not mention
religion nor politics
as factors concerning her choice.
What I am trying to say is that
this is an individual matter
requiring an individual choice
and should not concern the public.
It should be noted that it is immoral
to have an abortion for the sake of having one,
or for covering up a mistake.
It is not immoral if the the process will save
the mother’s life.
In this case, abortion is now pro-life.
The terms pro-life and pro-abortion
should not be used for political purposes.
These are mentioned merely to profit
from somebody else’s mistake
and should not be used as a general rule.
There was that time when the South
was the breadbasket of America.
It produced most of the food for the North.
So much so that the failure of the Southern crops
spell depression for the whole of the country.
And then there came that time when the South
needed more labor to man the fields
and so they got this labor from Africa.
And so started that time when America
fell into a sad story.
It was merry at first,
what with riverboats on the ol’ man river,
and fences to be painted white,
frogs jumping in the long hot summer,
romance was in the southern air.
The South held the American enterprise
while the North held its conscience.
The cabin of Uncle Tom held African slaves
that provided unpaid labor
for the Colonels of the South.
Comes now the conscience of the North
in the person of Abe Lincoln,
himself a Southerner with an emancipating heart.
In this situation comes General Grant who ceased
hauling wood in buckboards to re-enlist
and win battles for the North
including the final one.
After this the enterprise of the South
went with the wind to end up with the North.
The South now becomes the conscience of America,
smarting with its loss
and grumbling with heavy hearts,
and skinned heads and pointed hats.
In time, this nationalistic pride turned to
a Southern pride under the guise of white supremacist.
Presently, as the West becomes more profitable
and the East becomes more powerful
the South looms as one mutinous force that could
be sparked by one single rabble-rouser
who could trumpet the rude realization
that Uncle Tom could actually
vote in an American President.
(And here we go)
It looks like the GOP of the South
seek to prevent the second impeachment of Trump
for the sole reason that his term of office has expired
and he is now a private citizen.
HOGWASH!
The term of office is no statute for impeachment
as long as the articles have been approved
before Trump became a private citizen and
that the articles contain
a charge of fomenting rebellion
against a separate branch of government,
plus the petition to disqualify Trump from serving
as a government employee.
But frankly, I believe that whatever happens
in this trial, it would not matter.
The damage is done.
Deep pride has risen from all points
of the country which may again repeat Lincoln’s
“Four scores and seven years ago,
our forefathers ended it with
a trial by combat”
(Heaven forbid...)
i will throw you a curv-ini
hope you can catch it.
It will be in multi-linguini
and some of it is tabingi.
Some presidente I forget who,
is deadly-determinado to prove
le electione is kaput because he knows
it was rigged so he would win.
El vittorio bandera is supposed to be his
nada con duda,
Bringing to mind some certain Navalny,
despues being wined and dined en allemagna
but presently under le carabinieri for being
drunk with something ala morphini.
El peboretissimo amigo of both el presidente
and Navalny whose name is Giuliani,
a name to ring Paganini’s La campanella
little bells on Three Kings Day of Enero,
the day of Combat,
comes out stronger than espresso
to sabe andale, andale a kapitolyo.
I do not know whether you can make heads or tails
of this script I just scribbled under the influence.
If it did, boy, you’re good!
That region known in American history
as the South
goes to a serious meditation,
a more serious meditation today.
The Confederate flag flashes into the picture.
The recent events have added fire to
the smoldering pride of the region.
And the calls for unification are being ignored.
The rest of the Union should take serious note
that Abe Lincoln,
greatest of the great Americans,
did not completely unify the country.
He failed to put out the Southern fire.
One keeps wondering why the Washington Capitol,
erstwhile the impregnable fortress of Democracy,
was breached by the same people
whose blood was shed to protect it.
Hell, NO, is heard,
we won’t go!
The question now arises
from the adherents of the Catholic Church
in that some beliefs like transubstantiation
in the Holy Eucharist, baptism, sacraments,
and etc., be included in the Credo.
Those that I mentioned are literally rites
of the Church and these belong to
its catechism.
These are actually included in the
“belief in the Holy Catholic Church.”
When one believes in the Holy Catholic Church
one also believes in its rites, liturgies, and sacraments.
This belief is as sweeping
as the Holy Catholic Church is.
No need to include the specifics.
When one buys a Big Mac
no need to specify the beef.
It appears that from the relentless battering
by its opponents in the internet,
Islam has become indefensible.
The constant critiques against the Qu’ran
and the prophet Mohammed is doing its toll.
The points against the Muslim religion
remain unanswered by any of its proponents.
It seems that the constant information
aired in the media effectively re-educates the
adherents of this religion
most specially those with weak faith.
If no Muslim scholar will debate in public
to counter the internet assault,
this religion, or whatever it is called now,
will end up in stagnation
till all its Imams die away.
Every religion, or faith,
worships a god; or a chief god,
if there are lesser ones.
Different faiths have different gods,
described as unseen, untouched,
omnipotent and hungry for adoration.
All these different gods may be treated
as one and the same for all religions and all faiths.
Otherwise, with all the power attributed to them,
they would most certainly fight among each other,
if only to have more people to worship them.
This may mean that there is only one and the same god.
(the others are false or imaginary)
And this god does not mind what liturgy, or prayers,
or ceremony and practices the people use
as long as they pray to him.
Under this arrangement, there is discipline, and order,
and control of the peoples in this world.
One thing though, if on Judgement day,
and if this god decides
that the way some souls worship him
is not to his liking,
“Oh Shucks!”
would be the favorite (and last) expression
of these souls for that day.
What follows is the Apostle’s Creed,
or CREDO
of the universal Roman Catholic Church,
and which is commonly called,
the “I believe…”
Apostle’s Creed
I believe in God,
the Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried;
He descended into hell;
on the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from there He will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy Catholic Church,
the communion of Saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.
Amen.
Every religion or faith,
valid, original, pagan, false, copied or for profit
should have its own credo,
otherwise the group is simply a crowd,
Your party is sinking,
Republicans,
where do you go from here?
You have been duped.
You are made to believe that
the election was stolen
and you are not even told how?
Your inalienable ties with Trump
and the Aryan Supremacists
have stifled your tongues
and you look bewildered.
You have yet to realize that whatever
vote you make
on this second impeachment trial
will not change anything.
The important vote was in the
first impeachment trial
the result of which started the demise
of your party.
You should have your party renamed
the Banana Republican Party
or more descriptively
the Nationalist Republican Party.
Referring to his upcoming
second impeachment trial,
Trump can pardon only a person who is guilty.
(by common sense)
Now, if he is found guilty by this trial,
he is impeached
and therefore he loses the presidency
and consequently his powers to pardon.
Get it?
The Word
In the Beginning was The Word
And The Word was with God
And the Word was God.
Three verses
the meaning of which would be the same
if these are read in any order.
The three items of significance are
Beginning, Word, and God.
OF these, much confusion is focused
on the word WORD.
WORD, by definition, means EXPRESSION.
An expression by God and of God is divine
since God is divine.
And since there is only one divine item
which is God,
the WORD therefore is also God.
Now the Word of God,
which is also God,
refers to Jesus,
the Son of God,
the Expression of God.
No doubt!
The Republican Party
may now be officially called
the Banana Republican Party.
Poor Losers
Rabble rousers
ugly Americans
make America great
in riots and street protests.
Freedom of Expression
is their weapon.
Brown Shirts
is their uniform.
They have so much time on their hands.
They should work to harvest bananas
in July.
Heil!
The Devil did not make you do it.
He does it himself.
If he gets in you.
God does not destroy.
HE does not kill.
Mother Nature does.
And so does man.
Unless God interferes.
But HE does not have to.
Man is shielded even before
there is the need to exorcize.
Find out how.
