fb cleanse

Posted on December 19, 2018 by | Leave a comment

For the second time in two months I have scrubbed my Facebook wall. It’s in case I lose my GD mind over world gone mad. I’m ok on other networks, but FB feed triggers me. Twitter, WordPress, MeWe, VK don’t bother me. Who knows.

is it always fake?

Posted on December 19, 2018 by | Leave a comment

I was in a business last night that had a TV running on Fox News. I could not hear it, only see banners and captions from a distance. I swear for a moment I saw Fox reporting a bit of naked truth. Is this possible? Maybe if it serves an agenda? FYI: I am also contemptuous of MSNBC and others.

Over the decades, I have met Mexican and Guatemalan citizens in Mexico who spoke little to no Spanish. They spoke indigenous languages, often Mayan. It surprised me the first time. I mention this because of the recent death in the news. Mayan country is treasure of the world. ❤️

gonna miss flickr

Brian and I paid the “discounted” 1st-year ransom to SmugMug for our beloved old flickr account while copying all of it over to Piwigo for safekeeping. I moved 11,500 pics (15 GB) last night. Piwigo will get the next renewal. SmugMug pissed me off.

tumblr – flickr

Disappointing what is happening to Tumblr and flickr this year. It reminds me of the events leading to the fate of My Opera and WBS (Webchat Broadcasting System). 🔥

la guerra fria

Posted on December 10, 2018 by | Leave a comment

The Cold War lives on to this day with renewed enthusiasm. I like citizen diplomacy. I had a Ham Radio station and license all through high school (1970’s). I had many radio friends in the USSR.

The Johnny Carson interview in this is tops. This reminds me of my 6th grade class (about 1970). Cold War was running hot. A student asked, “Teacher, why do the Russians want to kill us?” She replied, “They don’t. Some child like you there is asking the same thing about us right now.”

Article:

In 1982, a 10-year-old American wrote to the head of the U.S.S.R. He wrote back and she became our youngest diplomat.
