IT IS NOT A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL. Saturday, February 8, 2014. Habits Of Happy Healthy Successful People. This morning, on Facebook, I saw postings by a couple of my Facebook friends which resonated with me. One posting was via the Queen of Wink linking to a Mind, Body, Green. Website webpage titled 25 Habits of People Who Are Happy, Healthy and Successful. One of the 25 habits advised not to waste time with negative or toxic people, which relates to the posting by Sampson of Sampson and Delilah fame.

IT IS NOT A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL. Thursday, November 20, 2014. Will President Obama's Latest Executive Order Push the Republican Know Nothings Over the Edge? Tonight, in a speech the American networks, ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX, are refusing to cover, President Obama is expected to announce an Executive Order executing some sort of action regarding the immigration issue. This has the Republicans, also known as the Know-Nothings, in high umbrage mode, again rattling the impeachment cage. Way back a couple ce...

IT IS NOT A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL. Tuesday, October 7, 2014. September 11, 1990 The First President Bush Announces A New World Order Which Did Not Last Long. So, this morning I was reading the chapter about Clinton's predecessor, President George Herbert Walker Bush, when I came upon what has become known as the Bush New World Order Speech. What follows is an excerpt from President George H. W.Bush's Address before a joint session of Congress on the Persian Gulf Crisis caused by Saddam Hussein's ...We st...

Durango World: Charlie Chaplin's Great Dictator Speech
http://durango-world.blogspot.com/2014/10/charlie-chaplins-great-dictator-speech.html
IT IS NOT A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL. Thursday, October 2, 2014. Charlie Chaplin's Great Dictator Speech. It has only been in the past couple years I have learned to appreciate what a film making genius Charlie Chaplin was. Decades ago I could not make it through a silent film, due to the jerky quality. Well, that problem has been solved and nowadays you can watch silent movies in the smooth way they were intended to be seen. It was Chaplin's City Lights. And The Gold Rush. Is known for many scenes, but the...

IT IS NOT A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL. Tuesday, November 26, 2013. You Do Not Know You're Stupid When You Are Dead. I saw the two paragraphs on the left on Facebook this morning. So true, I thought to myself. I only know, well, used to know, a couple really stupid people. Currently I don't know anyone, personally, who I think to be stupid. The two stupid people who are the stupidest I've ever known are too stupid to know they are stupid. Both are too stupid to understand the easy to understand concept that t...

IT IS NOT A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL. Tuesday, December 24, 2013. God Must Love All The Foolish People He Created. I purloined the Bertrand Russell quote from Facebook this morning. Facebook seems to be a good place for such a quote, only I would change the number to one much higher than fifty million. No one on my Facebook friend lists says foolish things, not that I have noticed. However, I have seen others, not my Facebook friends, spout incredibly foolish foolishness. Friday, December 13, 2013. The Amer...
