You're Never As Cool As You Think You Are

Ducked off in a corner, in a cave somewhere in Southern California, away from everyone and everything that made me who I am, I sometimes morph into a different version of myself.  I say that not neccessarily in a bad way, but we all grow and new enviroments bring new perspectives.  That's just life.  Well the other day my cousin came to visit me.  He's a few years older and was always the coolest cat around.  Because of him I was semi cool,  by proxy,  because I got to hang around him and his popular friends. (Some of which went on to become major celebrities by the way, this is Atlanta I'm talkin about ya'll).   So flash forward to today.  I havent seen my cuz in at least 8 years.  He calls my cell and says "I'm in LA.  Where you at?"  Different events culminate to me sitting in a room in LA (where my new life is),  around my cousin and these same friends ( who are now rich and famous), and me the same young kid hangin around trying to act cool.  It was weird because the whole scene brought me back to emotions, feelings and insecurities that I thought had been long purged from my DNA.  I actually felt like I was right back in High School.  Just goes to show you, you're never as cool as you think you are.  There's always someone out there that can bring you back down to Earth.

HoneyBees, NOT on the swarm!

The loss of honeybee hives is real!

its either 'man' or nature causing this threat. A cellphone's signal can disrupt a bees' mysterious navigation system and prevent them from finding their way back to the hive. Or is it the stress of transporting thousands of hives on flatbed trucks to various agricultural areas around the country?
The problem could be weather changes, viruses, fungi, parasites, mites, or a natural calamity like Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). The mysterious condition that causes worker bees to abandon their hives, leaving behind the queen and immature bees. The workers are never seen again, and within a week or two the hive is dead. Mysteriously, other animals that would ordinarily scavenge the honey in a dead hive leave CCD hives alone.
If this problem doesn't get solved, expect shortages in fruit and produce. a fabulous bread-and-water dinner will be served as the main course. And that is all.

McCain and The Keating Five

Founding Member of the Keating FiveBack in the old days, defendants in famous trials got numbers -- the Chicago Eight, the Gang of Four, the Dave Clark Five, the Daytona 500. McCain was one of the "Keating Five," congressmen investigated on ethics charges for strenuously helping convicted racketeer Charles Keating after he gave them large campaign contributions and vacation trips.


Charles Keating was convicted of racketeering and fraud in both state and federal court after his Lincoln Savings & Loan collapsed, costing the taxpayers $3.4 billion. His convictions were overturned on technicalities; for example, the federal conviction was overturned because jurors had heard about his state conviction, and his state charges because Judge Lance Ito (yes, that judge) screwed up jury instructions. Neither court cleared him, and he faces new trials in both courts.)


Though he was not convicted of anything, McCain intervened on behalf of Charles Keating after Keating gave McCain at least $112,00 in contributions. In the mid-1980s, McCain made at least 9 trips on Keating's airplanes, and 3 of those were to Keating's luxurious retreat in the Bahamas. McCain's wife and father-in-law also were the largest investors (at $350,000) in a Keating shopping center; the Phoenix New Times called it a "sweetheart deal."

Just a question

What do you think? Has McCain gone to far? Or is this how Hillary really feels?

What does young educated Americans have to say?

Now that the Democratic Convention has begun and Michelle Obama has reintroduced Barack Obama to the world and the republicans are using Hillary Clinton as a weapon.

Today's question is a three part question:

What did you think about Michelle Obama's speech? Is Barack Obama a celebrity or politician? Does he have what it takes to lead America out of its crisis?

These boys are hot.  Stay tune for the new post " Georgia : McCain's war" coming soon!  Until then enjoy!
