Intentionally Seeking Beauty - Instead of watching TV News, I went for a walk in the garden and took photographs of the Roses.

Later I turned on the TV News and they said: People far away from here are behaving crazy again and that's why their lives really suck... I'm sure glad they don't live around here.

Everyday every broadcast the story is exactly the same... The specific names of the people that are far away from here change... But they're still behaving crazy and that's why their lives really suck... 







On social media, I read that a lot of people spend their lives watching TV news and looking at their phones doomscrolling... Worrying about problems that they can do nothing about... I'm not kidding...

It's safe to summarize TV news as: People I don't know, far away from here, are behaving crazy again. And that makes their lives suck. I'm sure glad they're not around here.

I do read posts on Faceborg written by friends and family... I especially like the movies of my family skiing... And dancing at rock concerts... And every time I see someone expressing a MAGA Moron absurdity, I block them... And I never see their Trump Pansy #CrazyTalk again...

Why would I voluntarily read posts written by Russian Bots or paid employees in Nigeria?

When you stop to think about it... There are very few Actual MAGA Morons In the Real World... Their opinions are Amplified by Computer Programs that "flood the zone" with #mindControl #brainWashing ... I decline to participate...


When I'm playing with the computer art program, I cannot see a clock... So I go into "The Zone" ... And often, hours pass... Time well spent!


I do like the artificial intelligence Image Makers... I use the programs by Google and Microsoft... I type in a description, they generate an image, and I choose the best one...


now that I think about it...
I have a lot of Hope for the future... First we have to survive the next three years... And by that I mean the human race... I mean life itself... If Trump starts World War 3 then we could exterminate all living creatures on planet Earth... And it may take a billion years to evolve a new life form... And it may be a dead Planet forever... Who knows? I won't be around to witness it... I figured that since I live near Sacramento, California... in the event of a nuclear war I will be dead before I even know it started...

But I predict that the next presidential election will be won by Gavin Newsom and Jennifer Siebel. It will be like Camelot 2.0 - there was a time in American history when JFK and Jackie were in the White House and that era was commonly called Camelot... Not only will Gavin and Jennifer serve for 8 years in the White House... But their children will grow up to rule... Just like those other family dynasties... The Bush family... The Kennedy family... We will have a Newsom Dynasty that will rule for 100 years...



this portrait of me was taken after camping for a week at the Rainbow Gathering in Utah. Some young people needed a ride to the hospital and I was "the man with the van" ... Automatically doing what needs to be done immediately without thought of payment or benefit to me... Is a great way to live... Then later I drove them to the Salt Lake City Airport where they called a family member who bought them a couple of airplane tickets back to Colorado... Nice kids but... Totally unprepared... And it's really our responsibility as Village Elders to take care of the young... I was traveling with my friend Mike and he volunteered my services as a ambulance driver... And I said okay!



Here I am at the office... In Eureka, California.
You will note that I have a string of bells hanging on the wall in the upper left hand corner... Those bells have "been danced" by me at a Pow Wow in Paradise, California... And every day at 5:00 I would ring those bells and shout out: "GO Home! The work day is over! Stop working! GO Home!"

and when I retired, I gave those bells to my coworker "SP" so she could ring the quitting time bells for the rest of her career...

Sadly... Space Travel is REALLY BORING.. And Ultimately Pointless... We Went to the Moon... There was Nothing Interesting There... And That's Why We Haven't Been Back in OVER 50 years...

I was excited for about one hour... about this NASA rocket ship to the Moon. It's got that real "Back to the '60s" feel... You know... Woodstock, Stonewall Riots... The movie 2001...

Some slogans stood the test of time... "Think for Yourself and Question Authority" was a really insightful quote by Dr Timothy Leary... But the mainstream media repeated his slogan "Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out" a million times because that lead to young people NOT causing trouble for the military industrial complex...

Most Voters are Young People, Minorities, Women or College Graduates. The GOP is Doomed... DOOMED!

The GOP will lose the next election IF we have an election at all... It looks like Trump's plan is to do a "False Flag" Operation and then declare Insurrection and Cancel the Midterm Elections...

and NOW for Something Completely Different
a Page from my Autobiography...
~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~


In 1971, a friend of mine went to San Francisco and went to the Fillmore West and came back to our high school and said... LET"S BUILD OUR OWN using the old mill in the center of town. We formed an organization called "Youth Unlimited" and got the Town to Sponsor Us with $1 per year rent for Forbes Mill. 

That was the beginning of The Forbes Mill Teen Club in Los Gatos California... We had a light show and electric rock music every weekend... On Wednesday nights we performed folk music.  I was the head of security and did advertising posters. I used the mimeograph machine at the High School to print the posters for upcoming shows...

"Youth Unlimited" first held a concert in the Rec Room of the Presbyterian Church next to Old Town on University Ave. There was a live rock band that featured a saxophone player with an electric sax. We also formed a drum circle outside with me playing harmonica and a couple of guitar players. 

Since we had Town sponsorship of our "Teen Club" thru the organization Youth Unlimited, we had to make sure no laws were being broken at Forbes Mill or the police would shut us down. Certainly no drinking or illegal drug use or housing of runaways. My take on law enforcement was to direct potential lawbreakers to the nearby hole in the fence that lead to the wooded area next to the freeway.  I admit that a lot of laws were broken on State of California property, but that was NOT MY CONCERN. I was responsible for making sure that OUR property was crime free.

The light show was created by using four slide projectors and two spinning wheels with variable speed motors that blocked the light from reaching the white wall behind the bandstand. Each cardboard wheel had holes cut into it so that the slides would be projected in a stroboscopic manner.  Some slides were abstract art created by "crystal craze" paint and others were photographs.


We also owned a strobe light and I learned to not point it at the electric organ player because the blinking light made it impossible to see which keys were black and which were white...

"Youth Unlimited" also built a crisis center called Fre-Ba-ZAK House. 
 It was in an old wooden home on North Santa Cruz Ave. The idea was to have a place for runaways to have a safe location to negotiate with their parents. Kids that had nowhere else to go could go there ... My friend Richard Bergholdt worked there as a counselor. I used to go there because it was a fun place to go talk with other classmates... I remember drinking coffee and discussing weighty subjects late at night. One time I went there because I couldn't go home. I had gone to the Ike and Tina Turner concert at the San Jose Convention Center and took a Large Dose of LSD. I had to wait until my parents went to sleep before going home. It was a great concert and I remember that MANY of the students at LGHS went. I also remember listening to the FM radio there. Talks by Alan Watts about Buddhism... and the story "The Cave" by Plato. There were some totally free radio stations then. They had the freedom of selecting what to play and when to play it. I heard "Space Hymn" by Lothar and the Hand People at Fre-Ba-ZAK House.

Trump is Stupid. You can't really MOCK a Black Man by Dressing Him up as a Mexican... Unless he's bringing Trump a #TACO!


just to make this perfectly clear... Black people and Mexicans are two entirely different racist stereotypes... Black people are the great grandchildren of slaves brought to the American South long ago... Mexicans are the great-grandchildren of Spanish Conquistadors who got American Indian Women Pregnant... But in Donald Trump's fried brain... They're the same...


And then on TV news one of those clowns that Trump employs was saying he thought the AI video was funny... It was either BJ Vance or Little Mikey Johnson... I find it difficult to tell those two guys apart because you know how it is... All those white guys look the same... Funny???

It's the 50th Anniversary of Richard Nixon's Failed War on Drugs. June 17th, 2021... Doing the Same Thing Again and Again and Again While Expecting Different Results IS INSANE!

"Everybody" says that the Failed War on Drugs Has Caused Massive Incarceration of Black and Brown Men... While that is True... Is that a Bad Thing? YES, It's a Bad Thing.

Now I Read in the Newspaper that Black and Brown Men are Dying from Fentanyl Overdoses... Huh... Isn't THAT Convenient? 

An Absolutely Certain Way to Prevent Their Genes from Showing Up in Future Generations... 


Here's a Classic Sermon on this Subject: 

June 17, 2021, will mark 50 years since U.S. President Richard Nixon declared drugs to be “public enemy number one,” launching a national campaign to criminalize drug use. War on drugs policies have led to mass incarceration, civil liberties abuses, over-policing and mistreatment of people of color, and human rights violations in the United States and around the world. Meanwhile, nearly 500,000 people died in the United States alone from opioid overdose in from 1999 to 2019, with death rates still accelerating steadily. 

To mark this milestone, faith leaders, as part of Open Society grantee Faith in Harm Reduction’s sermon series, will memorialize the victims of the war on drugs and affirm that people who use drugs are deserving of life, dignity, and rights.

Do Black Lives Matter? Really? How? I have Lived in Overwhelmingly White Towns for the Last 25 Years and NEVER has anyone Said: "GEE, I Sure Wish We Had Some Black People!"

Sure, Black Lives Matter BUT... There is No Shortage of Black People... They are REALLY FAR From Being an Endangered Species... Imagine if the Entire Continent of Africa was a Human Free Zone...
