You’re listening to the right NPR when they have you thinking about the images above. For what other radio station would spend an hour or so speaking to experts  about these beautiful creature. If only these were the type of topics NPR continued to cover they would be swimming in $$’s and nobody would be complaining.   It’s an education for the entire nation when NPR  swims to a different pond by bringing the depth and content you can’t find anywhere else. . Yet when it continues to breathe from the same river all the other liberal media swim in then it’s ocean should be drained.  Hopefully there are more of these creatures we and NPR can explore in the future together instead.

You’re fiduciary responsibility to the place you work is to insure that you do your utmost to make a $ profit for them but what about the risks that could incur? For the greater the risk the higher the chance of those profits?  How far does one take it and is there a line you won’t cross because of legality, ethics or corporate values?  Is that line printed in red or appearing to disappear as the treasured chest is owe so close?   Whatever line you choose can either fade away or grow stronger over time especially as the business climate changes?  Fiduciary Responsiblity Vs Risk something must consider with their heart, mind, soul and corporate wallet.

No I’m not printing them here just asking myself and you the question would you like them and should they be legal.  Should a private citizen under the First Ammendment be able to publish their own work or should the government intervene to “prevent tragedies”? Does the 2nd Ammendment Protect individuals right to bear arms that they can create and which would be easier to clear security barriers?  Yet unlike the media I won’t give you my opinion as of yet but ask you to think about 4 questions (below) before you determine yours

(1) Would people with evil intentions pay $5000 (the cost) to make such a gun currently? Of course over time if it does take off these costs will be reduced.

(2) Does your 1st Ammendment right protect individuals who want to show others how to build plastic explosives or hide weapons from TSA officials?

(3)  Is the 2nd Ammendment right to protect the people from people of from a government that might get out of control.

(4) If you believe this should be restricted from access to the public where is your line and if you believe this shouldn’t be restricted from the public where is your line if at all?

It’ amazing how many words we don’t say in our daily life that we sing about instead. Words and phrases let’s say which are a bit more “colorful” and/or “direct” then we’d get away in a conversation.  Acts  we sing about which could end us in Sing Sing or other prison outfits.   Music might just be the last adventure that we’ve never taken and never will.   Yet it’s a great outlet in a world where words are becoming more and more taboo.

I realize that thank G-D an assembly line position was not in my line of work.  Let’s just say it’s just not in my gene’s to continue to do routine work over and over again. My mind drifts from one activity to the next and this would occur even as the Chocolate was running down the line. Assembly line workers deserve more credit then they get and trust me they get it from me.

There comes a point when you have enough $, fame and power that you just decide it’s time for a break. It can be that an extra hour of work which you’d rather use at the gym rather then your bank account or you’re social media fingers which are pulled to crackers rather then Facebook. We all have our “breaking point” and even if it costs us in the short term our health, peace, well being as well as happiness make up for it in the long term.
