No to….

no-to-nutella

Join our campaign of good taste as we say “No to Nutella”.  A spread that doesn’t know whether it’s a Chocolate or is completely nuts.  Nutella is not for her or him but those who just don’t know. They fool you with the color trying to make your taste buds believe it’s Chocolate but your taste buds have been around the block for too long to fall for this fake news.    There are claims that the Titanic hit the Iceberg after the captain tasted this on his bread and wondered whether life was worth living (just claims).  Nutella may not be responsible for the loss of life but it is responsible for the loss of taste.

No Empathy! (Some what Spoiler Alert)

allied

There is nothing that can make me have empathy for a person that is a Nazi or a sympathizer in anyway. I would also include anyone involved in ISIS, Child Molestation, KKK etc to this list.  I don’t care how much love that might be shown between loving individuals even if a chorus of violin’s is playing Nazi vermin (and their like) must be put down as if they were a rabid Raccoon. That is why the movie Allied which had all the ingredients to win my heart ripped it out at the end instead.

Allied ** = If you walk out before the ending add * 1/2 stars.

Esau- A Different Side

esau esau-2

The commentators/ Midrash from the Torah have a dark way to describe Esau yet I see this man in a different light especially in today’s times. For Esau is described as a hunter who would sell his name for some food and the Midrash describes him as someone who faked his faith to his father to gain the upper end. You might ask why this is important in today’s times and the answer is simple Esau is considered by many the link to those of the Muslim faith .  You can see and imagine how this has caused resentment within many in their faith communities.

Esau and Jacob didn’t get along as do many brothers even today and although it’s important to try to bring families together sometimes separation can truly help each individual grow.  This story illustrates that divide and although they may never be as close as they were when they were young that doesn’t mean they can’t build a bridge of peace between them.  Each can be happy with each others success being there for those special moments in life but separating to find their own path to health, happiness, peace and success.

Reasons to hate parties & solutions

Posted by Bruce - in Blog - No Comments

party

I remember walking into a college party and walking out within 5 minutes well at least I was there. It took me years to discover the 5 reasons to hate parties and the 5 reasons solutions to these dilemma’s. What do you think of this list? Please feel free to add or subtract from it.

(1) TOO MANY PEOPLE- There’s just too many people and I’m not sure who to hang out with.  SOLUTION-  Find the 1 or 2 people that have the same chemistry as you do and pretend it’s just your party.

(2) MUSIC IS NOT THERE- They’ve chosen a sound track from a different lifestyle- SOLUTION- When in Rome listen to Roman music or ask the band or DJ to play a song or 2 in your genre. It also might be great time to get into a sillier conversation with your new friends.

(3) APPEARANCES- The crowd is either to wild or too tame for your interests. SOLUTIONS- It’s time to have peripheral vision and just focus on those individuals who appear to be in your circus or just enjoy watching the acts around you. 

(4) JERK- You meant an individual who can be defined by Merriam Webster as a “Jerk”. SOLUTION- Move on to others in the party as if he was not in attendance.

(5) SOMEWHERE ELSE- People are having more fun at a different party and your stuck here. SOLUTION- There are always people having more fun then you are but also many others that have less fun so enjoy this moment.

G-D’s in charge then?

judiasm islam christianity

Whatever faith you espouse it is written that “G-D is in charge” which leaves the dilemma of what is our role? For some our role has already been cast and we are predestine to fulfill it as if we are in some play just practicing a part, for others G-D is watching and when the moment comes in stops the action to take charge. I believe it’s a combination plan where G-D has a plan for us but we can swerve or even reverse that plan at every turn.  A clear road is suddenly set in front of us at times but we still have the free will to choose to cross it or go in a totally different direction. In the end we will end up somewhere near the path G-D has chosen whether it will be here or in another existence.

Obama’s Fake News

president-obama-press-conference fake-news-3

Isn’t it a bit fishy that the President has his biggest press conference  with “breaking news” that the Russians were secretly involved in trying to influence the Presidential election, just the weekend before the Electoral College meets to actual decide who our next President is going to be?  Questions you might want to ask include the following.

(1) Why have this press conference now when this is actually an old story with no new evidence to support such a claim?

(2) Could this story be used to either make those in the electoral college think twice about fulfilling their duties to the citizens who voted them to support Trump or just try to discredit the victory of the President elect as a whole?

(3) Did we notice the glee in the eyes’s of reporters who continue to follow this story as if it were a terrorist attack claimed by a President to be workplace violence or the IRS going after groups with conservative leanings? Oh wait the press didn’t cover those stories.

This story smells like rotted fish sold to the American people in filthy newsprint not worthy to be used for my dogs presents to the world.

Eat What Eats Us

If we restricted our diet to only those animals that would hunt us down the choices would be quite limited.  Yet wouldn’t it be the most fair for in a sense eating such animals would be done in self defense.  Today it appears that their are few predators we truly have to fear but there is one animal that still is looking for us as their next victim. This has always been the animal that we have the most to fear from and it is closer then you think.

If we go with the theory above then it’s time I became a vegetarian.

Jacob & Trump

Posted by Bruce - in Blog - No Comments

Sometimes you have to look a bit deeper in the context of leaders then what you initially hear or read. That appears to be the case with Donald Trump and Jacob who’s words and/or actions might not appear let’s just say on the right, from your initial understanding. Yet when we look into the context and the times they live(d) in a greater sense of why they are the leaders they are comes true. For G-D knows the inner workings of society and the people that are there and sometimes the crooked path might be more straight then it initially appears because of where we came from.  Donald Trump has his flaws but we might need those arrows if we are to hit the target again.
