Fill in the blank...submitted for your consideration

Here is a proposal, something from me to you, something to ruminate upon.
(And perhaps, this is something far apart from the accepted wisdom and opinion of the majority.)
I offer this, for you to consider and your response.
That the practice, understanding and implementation of tact –sensitive, a keen sense of what to do or say in order to maintain good relations with others; avoid offense- has been misappropriated. Misappropriated by duplicity or duplicities.

Every system (Political parties, organized Social Groups...) and every human being (politician, activist...) has disadvantages. Having some weaknesses, being susceptible to the intentional unobvious contradictories of action, words or ideas. This weakness doesn’t make for stupidity, its simple venerability.

To admire the duplicitous behavior, to reward duplicity with either congeniality or impartiality is diminishing the qualities of …

Here is the explicit question: When exposed, knowingly or unknowingly revealed, how are you going to deal with someone deeply cultured in the practice of misleading others?

Three Hundered....180

Can you recall the scene from 300, when the Persian messenger stood before King Leonidas. Somewhere about the 53 second mark, this interview went into some reversal-alternate-paradox- scene from the movie 300. I could see this guy chest-kicking Bruno and yelling; "This is Sparta!!

The accent might be a little difficult to understand. But give the guy his prop's. (What little phrases of Japanese I utter, I butcher.)

You'll get a laugh from the exchange of dialog. Questionably strategic or misapprehension?

Heaters 55 word fiction...

They spare their words, in order to spare the feelings. They say. On he goes, seeing signs here and there. Never knowing true meaning. Only driving, hoping he will be ok. As he draws nearer to his exit, passing tremors and a waning sense of consciousness haphazardly engulfs him, an afternoon breeze without the comfort.

Everything is subject to satire... I laughed

Edith La Stella...In Honor

If a man is fortunate, in his lifetime many women will have graced him. And if he’s humble, he’ll have earned what he was given.

In all of human existence, it is no small thing to touch many lives… it is a great thing to retain ones sanity.

The Valor of a Farmer...I can't get a handle on the situation

The Cost of living fell...but a gallon of milk is expected to cost $4.50 this summer!
Maybe,...is it just me, how am I going to plan anything based on such a broad spectrum of "Factual News".

"ATLANTA AND BOSTON - A gallon of milk in Birmingham, Ala., is expected to cost $4.50 this summer, perhaps more. At Wetzel's Market in Glen Rock, Pa., the New York strip steaks that were on sale for $4.99 a pound last Fourth of July will be $6.99 this year. In Boston, some shoppers report checkout prices on certain items that are 30 percent higher now than last summer.
"Prices are incredible," says Suzanna Wyman..."

By Courtney Schlisserman

June 17 (Bloomberg) -- The cost of living in the U.S. fell over the last 12 months by the most in six decades,

easing concern that government efforts to revive the economy will lead to an immediate outbreak of inflation.
The consumer price index dropped 1.3 percent in the year ended in May, the most since 1950, the Labor Department said today in Washington. Prices increased just 0.1 percent last month, less than anticipated, after no change in April.
Cheaper Food
…Food prices, which account for about a seventh of the CPI, decreased 0.2 percent in April, reflecting lower costs for all major categories including fruits and vegetables, meats and dairy products..."

Crisis looms for U.S. dairy farmers — Raw milk the one economic bright spot...



..."Here’s a story by Lidia Waddington, from the Iowa Independent on the problems conventional dairy farmers are facing as the price paid to them falls to half of what it was, while the store price for dairy products remains the same."..."The USDA and FDA have been attacking those independent dairy farmers mercilessly. Those are the same agencies which the fake “food safety” bills would merge into new massive agency and invest with police state power over all food."
