I'm Really Enjoying the Croaking Frogs in the Creek. The Sound is so Very Three Dimensional. Some are Behind Me to the Right, Some Really Close and Some in Front of Me Far Far Away. And Everywhere In Between...

It Rained Here Two Days Ago and That's What Brought Out The Frogs...

We also have about a dozen geese that live in the field down stream... and little chirpy birds... I was watching the Sunset... Big Puffy Clouds... and appreciating the wonders of nature... We Have so many trees... and they are just starting to blossom... It makes me feel that all is right in the world... then there are Jet Airplanes way up high... people rushing, rushing, rushing to keep appointments... seems silly... and of course, everyone loves the sound of a Harley in the Distance... It's a Wonderful World Here in the Central Valley of California.

I was looking at the Constellation Orion last night and the three Stars of Orion's Belt are NOT exactly in a straight line. One is slightly offset. JUST LIKE THE PYRAMIDS IN EGYPT. If you look at a Map... The Pyramids are Exactly in the same Arrangement as the Stars. Thanks, ANCIENT ALIENS TV SHOW. I Never would have noticed this without you. MY QUESTION is what is that Really Bright Planet nearby? REALLY REALLY BRIGHT... My Guess is Mars...

It's Important To Remember that... While those Crazy People on the TV News are Doing Insane Stuff... Life is Pretty Good Here. Yes, There is a Crisis in the World but, SIMPLY CHANGE THE CHANNEL ON THE TV and it all goes away... I Enjoy watching "Ancient Aliens." It raises some interesting Questions... and "Jeopardy" game show is FUN.

To Quote Wavy Gravy at the Ram Dass Funeral...
"Gimme an 'F'... (and the crowd says 'F'), Gimme a 'U'... ('U'), Gimme an 'N'... ('N')... What's That Spell? FUN!, What's That Spell? FUN!, What's That Spell? FUN!, What's That Spell? FUN! Of Course, This Chant Only Works if You Know Who Wavy Gravy IS and Had Seen the Movie 'Woodstock' so this is Totally Wasted on Rap Music Fans... and Who IS Ram Dass? Country Joe and The Fish? Why would anyone want to BE HERE NOW?

Marijuana Support Grows: Two Out Of Three Americans Back Legalization, Gallup Poll Says in 2019 - Tax it. Regulate It. Use the Money to Fund Treatment for Opioid Addicts Instead of FOR PROFIT PRISONS...

The latest finding, from the recently released General Social Survey by NORC at the University of Chicago, shows that 61 percent of people supported marijuana legalization in 2018. That’s up from 57 percent in 2016 and 31 percent in 2000 — a rapid shift in public opinion in less than two decades.
The other two big national surveys on the topic have found similar results. Gallup put support for marijuana legalization at 66 percent in 2018, up from from 60 percent in 2016 and 31 percent in 2000. Pew put it at 62 percent in 2018, up from 57 percent in 2016 and 31 percent in 2000.

The new survey released on Monday shows that U.S. adults back ending cannabis prohibition by a supermajority margin of 66 percent to 32 percent. That's more than a two-to-one ratio.

In 1972 We went to see The Rolling Stones at San Francisco's Winterland... TWICE in one day!

First, I was unable to buy tickets at the brand new "Ticketron" service at Macy's Department store. The computer system was incredibly slow and a huge pile of us teenagers just lay down on the beds in the store for hours, then we were told: All sold out! So I bought two tickets from a scalper I met thru a newspaper ad in the Times Observer.

Then, on the day of the show I drove my Girlfriend Liz and two of her friends... We went to the afternoon concert. I was really bored during the Stevie Wonder performance because I was anxious to see the STONES! It was a truly exciting show. Similar to the record "Get Your YA YAs Out".

Then we went out to dinner at Fisherman's Wharf. Then we went BACK to Winterland and Debbie started crying loudly and told the policeman: "The Black Boys Stole our Tickets!" Amazingly, the policeman believed her and we were all waved into the concert! Another exciting show... and then we went home.

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.

History of the Vietnam War. 58,000 Americans Died for Nothing... Something They Don't Teach in School Now... "Too Controversial" -

During the 1950s Americans went into a Mad Panic about Communists taking over the world. We built thousands of Nuclear Missiles and Fallout Shelters. The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.


During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "The Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was...
