How one word can change the world for the better!

It is sort of my pet project to try to think of new ways to make society work in this peculiar age we have made, this age of ineffective protests & apathetic people.
You may have read my answer to politics "just say Duh" which I think is a valid response to politics as they exist today.
Now in response to numerous asinine statements by people that have not learned enough to know better I have come up with another response to help cope with another brand of "social nonsense".
It may be to late for some, like G.W. Bush, Kim Jong Il & certain Muslim clerics to name just a few and it does take a measure of civic responsibility (something society is not strong on these days).
Here's how it works (don't worry it's easy to say and easy to spell... I dare say you may have used it in your life already) the very next time you hear someone say the "Jews are all..." Or "the Blacks are..." Or "Women always..." Or "Men only want..." Or any of the many untrue generalizations we all know by now, there is no need to try to bend them to right with the force of your formidable intellect cause they're not going to get it anyway... No simply say " Hey!... I never noticed it before but, you're an a**hole!
There it is... My magic word!
It works in any place you can find idiots... Down at the pub, in your book club, at work, republican & democratic meetings.
I didn't say at home because you have of course already told your children how false and dangerous the statements above are... right? ...Right?
Anyway there's no need to shout it or get mad it's just a simple information exchange.

Here's a handy guide for proper usage:
"Hey Bob... You know I never noticed it before but... You're a real A**hole."

"Betty you know I've been thinking things might get better for you if you could stop thinking like an A**hole."

So there it is the one word that can save mankind!

Hmmm... I can see you are still skeptical... Well consider this, imagine if 25 years or so ago one of "dubya's" mates used it in response to his dodging out of his reserve responsibilities or not getting help for his alcoholism we could be living in a much different world.
So get out there... use the word well & often... Before it's too late!

What happened to self - government and the will of the people?

"We exist, and are quoted as standing proofs that a government, so modeled as to rest continually on the will of the whole society, is a practicable government." --Thomas Jefferson to Richard Rush, 1820. ME 15:284 Thomas Jefferson was capable of truly stunning thought, but no more than we all are ! As a people our will can be a stunning force for the common good, for our world. I realize that it is way too early in history to even hope for a world without borders or even one where our differences are praised, but neither is this country, this world, made of opposing parties each hoping to rule the others. We have as Americans & as a world learned to sacrifice our common will to those with a "vision", our new "Kings" unfortunately we have also learned to believe that we have no right to self govern. We play right into their hands, becoming more isolated, lonely & pathetic with every liberty that is taken from us, our power & strength being erod...

Recent events have made me reflect on the nature of things... At this moment I am thinking about Cool and Swagger! With the passing of Lonnie Mack, Prince, David Bowie and George Martin you may believe that the world is now in deficit of both but fear not Cool and Swagger are safe and sound! Now if you know me you know I'm one cool doofus (maybe more doofus) but cool doesn't happen in a vacuum it's gotta come from somewhere! So let me tell you a bit about my personal idol of Cool and Swagger! My brother John Bagley! Back in the day that was one tall dark and handsome sharp dressing SOB! While I was learning how to deal with the freak flag that was sticking out the middle of my forehead there was my brother making "cool" his bitch! I was bound to lean something! By example, I got the idea of what dress sense and Swagger is and how I could apply it to my slightly less formidable physicality. Case and po...

Why does there have to be a racial component?

Why does their have to be a racial component to everything? People in Louisiana are suffering & dying, what the hell difference does it make what colour they are. If we could agree that ALL people are the same not in legislation but in our hearts life would be much better. Yes… simplistic I know but if it is… then why have we not done it?
