Today is the 67th anniversary of\u00a0 dropping the big one on Hiroshima.\u00a0 Whatever your view on that incident, this did pull the plug on WWII, which we must not forget when viewing all these sad and sorry stories in today’s news reports regarding this achievement. \u00a0Perspectives, people, are needed\u00a0 when we come upon these occasions where the ‘greater good’ is neglected, in the press’s presentation of such happenings. \u00a0“Cause and Effect” can be a complex issue; but for those of us who have visited Pearl Harbor’s still existing memorial (where lay the battleship Arizona sunk there\u00a0containing it’s crew in a watery grave,) we do not waste the day in regret or remorse.\u00a0 In fact it has been my policy, as a ‘military brat’, to celebrate such occasions by doing something useful and symbolic.\u00a0 I clean out all the cat boxes (whether they need it or not) on national holidays and private celebrations such as today.\u00a0 Every one has his or her perspective, and opinion on this: but in truth: ‘you are what you do’, even the cats of the household here.\u00a0 Let us not forget our own brave <\/strong>military service men who\u00a0fought, and\u00a0who many died in the Pacific campaign, as well as in Europe in the 1940’s.\u00a0But for their efforts and sacrifice, we could be all working in a Toyota factory, or worse, instead of sitting around reading these dumb-shit blogs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Speaking of Bombs, both Kay Buena and her technical advisor and programmer (and husband), Charles Sauer, did try once again to record on our new digital equipment, with no success.\u00a0\u00a0‘Could be a commie Plot.\u00a0but\u00a0the whole weekend was, indeed a most frustrating experience.\u00a0 Hopefully today, as I work on the snoop Dogg portrait, I will have better luck.<\/p>\n

Good luck to all on this day of contemplative enigmas.\u00a0 Keep busy and hopefully they will pass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
