Felt Pretty Weak for a Moment

I will try and finish this post; but, for no apparent reason I had an eye ache that led to a headache that led to me being nauseous. I felt fine all day and it hit me when I took a relative to dinner. I had to bring my dinner home and end the night early. I am feeling a little better now, just one of those things and as a result my writing may not be up to snuff.

I may just be some random blogger; but, I really take pride in knowing that people that read my blog will come away being aware of things that most people are not. I am blessed with having the time to read numerous news articles on a daily basis and pull out the one or two things that I think are the most important and might otherwise be overlooked. It is sort of like being the secretary who goes through and summarizes the news for her boss. I know secretaries can be men, mine was.

I was reading about the UN conference in South Africa that is going on. They want to declare the earth a person, I think I wrote about that over a year ago. They are also demanding an end to war because of the carbon emissions. That my dearest readers is true insanity. It means that carbon emissions are more important that human beings. Any person with any sense would like to see and end to war because of the impact to people.

Oh, they are also calling for the creation of a world court to prosecute people and nations for their impact on the environment. In other worlds a court that supersedes the courts of your country. I had stopped writing and was reading the papers and I just found an article saying that they passed the resolution.

Associated Press - Climate conference approves landmark deal

What was the top news story of the night, the Presidential debates and it is reported just like it mattered. I mean, just like a baseball game. Who's on first, What's on second, I don't know, third base. Just like the old comedy sketch.

The other story that is getting some play in limited release is the fact that the congress passed a bill that allows Americans to be detained without trial by the military in the United States. Doesn't this all sound more and more like a bad fiction novel? I mean really, first the Patriot Act, all these give away schemes by the Federal Reserve to the tune of trillions and now this nonsense. When were we taught that you didn't have a Constitutional right to a trial by your peers?

I forgot something, tens of thousands of protesters were in Russia calling for Putin to leave. As bad as the United States police have become, the ones in Russia are even worse. The Russians believe their elections were rigged and according to a former Soviet President, he thinks so too.

I forgot something else, a government contractor is seeking companies to work with it to provide medicine, food and other items should it need them to house untold numbers of American in camps. Huh? Now, I don't care what is anticipated, natural disaster because of solar flares, riots because of the collapse of the economy or some pandemic. It really does not matter to me; but, it is pretty obvious that our government is preparing for something.

BREAK IN WRITING

Sorry, had to step away mentally for a minute. I just read that there were three earthquakes in Mexico in the last day that exceeded 6 on the Richter scale. That is a lot, we should all pray for them. One of the nice things about living in the Los
Angeles area is that we made building codes that forced people to build with earthquakes in mind. We are not immune from earthquakes; but, have buildings that anticipate them. That is a good analogy for how we should live our lives.

Lost my train of thought again. Be well.
