A musical soundtrack to a spiritual journey
Maybe the best part of Friday night’s Travelin’ Music segment — even better than the music itself — is the insight it has offered into nonpolitical aspects of many of those who post here regularly. It has served as a necessary reminder that humanity transcends politics, no matter how fervently that political opinion might be expressed.
Take, for example, tonight’s guest posting from that lover of all things platinum and black, our provocateur du droit and skeptic by way of Harvey Mudd, Le Bruno:
“Part of being human means experiencing hunger. Every day, we hunger for food, which we can easily alleviate with a nice meal. Spiritual hunger is a little more complex and not so easily satisfied. Though many seem to find spiritual comfort in traditional organized religions, that has never been the case for me. While most promote faith, I advocate skepticism. While others seek certainty, I embrace uncertainty.
The closest I come to spiritual peace is while listening to music. Certain artists and albums seem to take me to a higher plane, where it all makes sense — at least for a while. At the top of that list is Santana, whose 1972 effort, Caravanserai, remains near and dear to me and many others. The album was a sharp departure from his earlier work and marked the end of Neil Schon’s and Gregg Rolie’s time with the band. Though it wasn’t a huge commercial success, it was an artistic achievement of major proportions.
While every song is fantastic, from “Song of the Wind” to “All the Love of the Universe” to “Every Step of the Way,” I have selected “Waves Within” as my special song to represent my never-ending spiritual journey.”

Two things I’ve said before and I will say again and again:
1. There well never be peace in the World as long as the Palestinian problem remains.
2. The Israeli “tail” wags the United States “dog.”

You know, josef, it’s strange you should bring up the WTC.
Just the other day, a bird, (a dove, I think) crashed into this 110 foot-tall pine tree in my back yard.
Of course, the bird disintegrated on impact. I didn’t really think much about it at the time.
But, about an hour later, I heard this loud bang! and I ran out to find that the tree had “collapsed” into a pile of sawdust.
Strange as that is, another tree that the bird didn’t even run into also “collapsed” into a pile of sawdust.
It’s the strangest thing I’ve ever seen!

NJ woman hit with ball sues Little League player
Fri June 22, 3:46PM
The Associated Press
MANCHESTER TOWNSHIP, N.J. — A New Jersey woman who was struck in the face with a baseball at a Little League game is suing the young catcher who threw it.
Elizabeth Lloyd is seeking more than $150,000 in damages to cover medical costs stemming from the incident at a Manchester Little League game two years ago. She’s also seeking an undefined amount for pain and suffering.
Lloyd was sitting at a picnic table near a fenced-in bullpen when she was hit with the ball.
Catcher Matthew Migliaccio was 11 years old at the time and was warming up a pitcher.
The lawsuit filed April 24 alleges Migliaccio’s errant throw was intentional and reckless, “assaulted and battered” Lloyd and caused “severe, painful and permanent” injuries.
A second count alleges Migliaccio’s actions were negligent and careless through “engaging in inappropriate physical and/or sporting activity” near Lloyd. She continues to suffer pain and anguish, incur medical expenses and has been unable to carry out her usual duties and activities, the lawsuit says.
And Lloyd’s husband, in a third count, is suing for the loss of “services, society and consortium” of his wife. They’ve demanded a jury trial.
Anthony Pagano, a lawyer for the Migliaccios, said the lawsuit is frivolous and without merit.
“I just think that it’s disgusting that you have people suing an 11-year-old kid for overthrowing his pitcher in the bullpen,” Pagano said. “It’s horrible this can actually happen and get this far. Ultimately, hopefully, justice will prevail.”
The count alleging negligence and carelessness is covered by homeowner’s insurance, Pagano said, but the other counts are not. Little League has denied any coverage.
Lloyd’s lawyer was out of the office Friday and could not be reached for comment.
Steve Barr, a spokesman for Little League, declined to comment on the litigation. He said each local league is required to have accident insurance, but that only covers personnel.
“That includes coaches, players, even concession stand workers. But it does not cover spectators,” Barr said.
Matthew’s father, Bob Migliaccio, said they were concerned for Lloyd when it happened. Then his son started receiving threatening and nasty letters, he said, and he started getting angry.
“The whole thing has almost been surreal,” Migliaccio said. “We keep thinking it’s just going to go away, and then a week and a half ago a sheriff shows up at my door to serve my son the papers.”
Migliaccio said if his son had been horsing around, he would feel differently. But Matthew was doing what his coaches told him to do, he said, and noted Little League players aren’t always accurate in their throws.
“It’s absurd to expect every 11-year-old to throw the ball on target,” Migliaccio said. “Everyone knows you’ve got to watch out. You assume some risk when you go out to a field. That’s just part of being at a game.”
Migliaccio said he and his wife, Sue, would love to beat the charges in court, but it could cost them tens of thousands of dollars. They also don’t want to put their son and other kids on the team through all the questions and depositions a trial would bring.
“It’s to the point now where we just want it to be over,” he said.
Matthew, described by his father as a “baseball junkie,” still plays on three different teams. But Migliaccio and his wife have stepped down from coaching and managing the concession stand because of the suit.
Migliaccio said as angry as he is about the lawsuit, he’s almost more angry with Little League. He said they’ve volunteered hundreds of hours over the years, and he believes Little League should assist in defending their son.
“Somebody else has to step in here and help us out,” Migliaccio said. “I just feel people should know about this, and maybe Little League can figure out a way to protect these kids.”

Well, G Mare, you and me are about the only ones on here so rickety we recall Snooky Lanson. Anyhow, after he left Your Hit Parade and did a little more singing, he found his calling as a car salesman in Tennessee. Sold Chryslers, so he must of been pretty good. It takes a heckuva sales job to get anybody to buy a Chrysler. Did that about 16 years, then died in NYC in 1990. He was already in hell in that place, so I reckon anything he got after death was OK. He could say, “At least I’m not in New York City.”

(2) Mary Elizabeth, who claims that a man who participated in slave ownership and who most likely took sexual advantage of one of his female slaves is the embodiment of egalitarianism.
(3) SoothSayer, who is just plain batshyte insane.

“Just for clarity, In the Jim
Crow South (before segregation had fully ended)
you attended an all black
school and at graduation
the principal called you aside
and complimented you on
your spiritual blindness to
any differences between
you and him or other black
people, a result of your
egalitarian consciousness
that you became aware of
at an early age or may have
been born with which coalesced into your belief
in unity from diversity.
Right?”
==============================
No, barking frog, I had not “attended” an all-black school as a student there; I had functioned as the only white teacher in an, otherwise, all black school after I had accepted my first teaching assignment there. I was 27 years old at that time.
And, the moment in which the principal had pulled me aside to express his gracious thoughts to me, as the only white teacher in that all black school, was the last day that that segregated school would remain open. It was the last day of post planning for the teaching staff in the 1969 – 70 school year in south Georgia. Teachers were leaving the school to go to their homes for the summer break during that June day in 1970. That school would reopen in the fall of 1970 as an integrated school. I, in turn, moved on to teach English to 7th – 9th grade students in another integrated school in that south Georgia School System during the 1970 – 71 school year. I had thought about the fact that “all are created equal” from the time that I had been in middle school, when I was about 12 years of age, so my being able to understand those egalitarian concepts, lived out in action, when I was 27 at that school, 15 years later, was organic with me. I do remember having been afraid that some white, radical segregationist might do me bodily harm as a result of my taking that position – my first teaching position after I had graduated from college in NYC and had come back to my Southern roots.
The point of the story was to illustrate that those around you are able to perceive your consciousness, without words, through how you relate to them one-on-one, and that how you relate to others, without condescension in your heart, will come naturally to your relationships with others if an egalitarian spirit has lived within your consciousness for years prior to your relating, firsthand. Understanding history, with that consciousness, is what changes history, as it evolves in time, for the better. That understanding is the basis of my appeal for us all to attempt to understand history with sensitivity, as well as with intellect.

It is interesting. Take, for example, “much needed regulation”. DC firmly believes every person and every institution sans those that are in DC need regulating.
It is amazing that politicians can speak of private sector employment gains without mentioning losses that exceed those gains.
Could you imagine a drug maker claiming that 100’s have been healed while 1000’s have lost their lives? Could you imagine a bank claiming tens of 1000’s of homes save from foreclosure while more had been foreclosed.

Obama is running out of excuses
By Jon Kraushar
Published June 22, 2012
It is time to “out” President Obama.
Mr. President, it is you—not Mitt Romney—who is out of touch with the American people and with what our country needs.
You are outraged at the charge that your White House leaks national security secrets while you stake out a claim of executive privilege, to keep White House communications secret on “Fast and Furious”—the American people smell a cop out or two somewhere in that mix.
You are never out of excuses—blaming others for our anemic recovery—while we are out of patience, frustrated with your mishandling of the economy.
You are out partying at Hollywood fundraisers while millions of people are out of work.
Your spending is out of control while taxpayers are out ever more money to fund your bailouts and handouts for special interests that are special to you.
You have an out of whack belief that “the private sector is doing fine” while we recoil at your outlandish idea to throw more money at the public sector—big government.
You are out in the open—dividing people by race, income, and deeply held religious and moral beliefs—while most Americans strive to bring out the best in themselves and their neighbors.
Your ObamaCare outsources our health care to government bureaucrats while it leaves us out of pocket, out of choices for our treatments and doctors, and out of incentives to develop new drugs and other medical innovations.
You’ve gone out of your way to antagonize allies like Israel and to appease adversaries like Russia, while most of us see this as out and out betrayals.
You keep going further out on a limb with your extremism on the environment and limiting the uses of energy like oil and coal while ignoring our concerns about being out of power and out in the cold.
You are out campaigning about how in touch you are with us while we see you as out of your depth in leadership, out in left field in your policies and, hopefully, out of your office in November.

Judgmental in his own right.
Stop being so judgmental, “..”
Out of curiosity, when have I ever claimed to be anything more than an imperfect person??

Friday night I crashed your party
Saturday I said i’m sorry
Sunday came and trashed me out again
I was only having fun
Wasn’t hurting any one
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change
You may be right
I may be crazy
But it just may be a lunatic your looking for
Turn out the light
Don,t try to save me
You may be wrong for all i know
But you may be right

Obama is running out of excuses
Both sides are-
11 years of trying to solve the MidEast with many wasted, very important, lives and billions of very important $s
11 years of horrible mismanagement. If DC were a private company it would have been forced out of business. I would sign a petition now to allow Bill Clinton another 4 years- why not we aren’t letting the ol’ Constitution stop us from anything else.

It’s all academic anyway. It’s crystal clear no country is going to make any real effort to stop the emissions of greenhouse gasses. A number of climatologists said, over 10 years ago, that in 10 years(that’s now) we would reach a tipping point and a runaway greenhouse effect would start and could not be stopped no matter what we did. It would be gradual, the average temps would slowly rise, and eventually the surface would be uninhabitial. So, worrying about global warming is about as sensible as worrying about an outer space alien invasion. There’s nothing we can do.

carlos “…A number of climatologists said, over 10 years ago,…”
I certainly agree with your second sentence “It’s crystal clear no country is going to make any real effort to stop the emissions of greenhouse gasses”
but my point is… what are they saying now?

Since our problems have been our own creation
They also can be overcome

Answer – what they’ve been saying all along.

BOTH, sweeet.
That 1966 album really set the stage for their stellar career.
Hell, they were so righteous that they even covered Todd’s Hello It’s Me!
And in an age of racial rage that music really turned a lot of us kids onto something much bigger than staying struck in the hateful past…

Thank God! Bruno thinks I’m batshyte crazy. I was beginning to wonder about him!
Now, if I can just decipher his Anusaryan complex with the Frog Woman who was given double slits by the extra-terrestrial, then I will have learned the full measure of our learned colleague.
Who can know of these things except Bruno himself?
