Matthews and Walsh Slam Ron Christie for Cheney's Hackery

Matthews and Walsh Slam Ron Christie for Cheney's Hackery



Posted: 31 Dec 2009 06:00 PM PST



Looks like good Tweety was back today taking a whack at Dick Cheney's former aide Ron Christie along with Salon's Joan Walsh. True to form Christie defended Cheney's recent stenography session at The Politico. Ron Christie is one of the more annoying pundits out there so this didn't bother me one bit. I'll give him this as annoying as he is though. He's got more stones than his… Continue

Crazy Heart

Crazy Heart

A brokedown, boozy c&w singer.

A great Jeff Bridges performance.



Some actors are blessed. Jeff Bridges is one of them. Ever since his breakthrough role in "The Last Picture Show" in 1971, he has, seemingly without effort, created a series of characters who we simply believe, even the alien "Starman." He doesn't do this with mannerisms but with their exclusion; his acting is as clear as running water. Look at him playing Bad Blake in "Crazy Heart." The notion… Continue

2009: A year of Fox News political activism

2009: A year of Fox News political activism



With the inauguration of President Obama in 2009, Fox News transformed itself from a conservative media outlet into a partisan, right-wing political organization that openly viewed itself as the "voice of the opposition." Throughout the year, Fox News has declared war on the Obama administration, the Democratic Congress, and progressive organizations by, among other things, campaigning for the firing of various administration officials,… Continue

Breathe in the beauty

Breathe in the beauty that is around you

every day

Let not the winds of change confound you

on your way

The child within must have some toys

for play

For to create is just you breathing out

your way



Taking in and breathing out

(The artist is at work)

It comes so naturally on the breath

which heaves and hisses as it tries to articulate

Always with the understanding that he will be misunderstood

For it is the process that must… Continue

Our Relation with Creation

Our Relation with Creation





The Fabric of Spirit is Woven

Into our very Being

Brought in Waves of Breath and Light

We use it to feed our thoughts and perceptions

And create our way of Life



You are the Conductor of your Song

You are the Artist choosing the palette

For your Masterpiece



Yet the energy of Creation is of Spirit

And Invokes the Universe

As It is… Continue

This year, as Architects in 2010, let us Draw the Plans and Produce our New Dawn.

Happy 2010 to all Architects...Lets make it a good one! Having lived with the Spirituality and Aloha of Kauai for nearly 30yrs, I have experienced many futuristic visions of our Planet at Peace.

New Years Resolutions

The Understanding of Intent



Divine Intent is the Energy with Which

The tone of our action is set

So there could be interaction of how we relate

To others and seek their help

And we can also see how we are reflected through others
