About the Circus of Life Blog

My little rant at the beginning of my blog is taking up too much space, so I decided to turn it into a post - About the Circus of Life Blog.

We are living at the circus in these United States of America, and possibly throughout the world.

A circus of loose lipped media, not-so-worthy politicians, religious fanatics and greedy corporations.

A media circus, a political circus, a religious potpourri of rules and judgements... a world where people hold on to beliefs without applying them with wisdom, compassion, logic or reason, where our prisons are full yet our streets are not safe, where our young people are violent and depressed.

We live in a country that is dependent on other countries even though it doesn't have to be.

Our politicians no longer represent "We The People."

Fanatical fundamentalist Christians decide on candidates (mostly) based on one issue instead of considering the welfare of ALL. I am a Christian also, but my duty as an American is to vote for the best candidate, not the best Christian.

Welcome to my blog where I rant and once in a while rave about topics and issues that cause me to stop and wonder what in the world is going on.

I am an independent voter, considering the character, integrity and platform of the individual candidate, because I feel that our major two party system of Republicans and Democrats no longer serves any purpose other than controlling its candidates representaing a select number of elitist partisans.

Since I cannot do anything about the circus, I blog about it.

Try blogging, it's great therapy!

Tampon Tim

So now they're calling him "tampon tim."  Meanwhile, we're loving the publicity showcasing the magnificence that is Tim Walz.  Gov. Tim Walz’s administration ensured that menstruation products are provided freely in Minnesota's public school bathrooms.  "This move is crucial for students who might experience their first periods unexpectedly or who cannot afford products at home. According to a 2019 study by Plan International USA, 1 in 5 girls in the U.S. has missed school because of lack of access to menstrual products." Walz also removed the tampon tax in Minnesota, proudly making it one of the few states to acknowledge the absurdity of taxing our essential health products. These are the kinds of actions that prove a politician cares about his or her constituents, and is concerned about the poorest among them.  Bravo! #HarrisWalz2024  https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/...

Ghost Proof Your Home

Halloween is around the corner and October in general is a month when strange happenings occur. I hear many tales of unexplained phenomena such as lights going on and off, knocks on the door when no one is there and sometimes just a "feeling" that someone is watching you. Is there any particular reason that spirits are more active in October? None that I can think of, except that it has been believed to be this way for centuries. However, those who know more about the cosmos, the star alignments and geomagnetic pulls may have some valid reasons why October is the bewitching month. Ghostly superstitions and beliefs exist in all cultures, and today I found a nice image that shows ways to ghost proof your home. The traditions come from many different cultures and are easy to do, except for the Kaballah thing. Click on the image to view it enlarged at the original source.

Support Term Limits for Supreme Court Justices

The following is a letter I have sent through automation to write my Representatives encouraging them to support term limits for Supreme Court Justices. Feel free to copy and paste the following letter that I rewrote from the previously formatted letter that will appear in the link provided at the bottom of this article. Or, use their letter. Or, better yet, rewrite it for yourself as I have done.  When you go to the link, your representatives will automatically appear when you enter your address.  This is such a simple way to contact your representatives in Washington, D.C.  Topic - government reform or judicial Letter: Thank you for your service to our country as a representative of the people. Integrity still matters to most people. Unfortunately, we are living in an era where we can no longer depend on one's conscience to dictate or control individual actions. I, and the majority of Americans, have lost faith in the Supreme Court’s ability to act as a neutral arbiter ...
