I imagine most are tired of hearing about Kidney Stones, but last night, went to bed around one, woke every two hours to "vacate" ..... around 6 this morning, I got up and went to the living room, sat in my chair, pulled up my "Snuggy," turned on the TV and fell asleep. I slept, UNINTERRUPTED, till noon. Heavenly .... continuous or continual, not sure which one, but, anyway, I slept. Been a few weeks now since that happened. Just, a few hours sleep.
The sun is out, I guess it is REALLY cold outside, definitely a Winter day in Ohio.
I haven't even checked the news today, but I can guess what it is, as can you. Weather probably is the top story, more snow in the East. ISIS, I am sure is getting some space. A year or so ago, never heard of ISIS, and now, a threat to the world, and, their people seem to be everywhere. They recruit via the internet ... Social Sites ... that is ironic. I wonder what their message is that makes them such a easy "sell."
Perhaps the world is just ready for such a message. I this country, unrest, terrorism, mass shootings by unlikely, disturbed, individuals, police killings, brutality everywhere. We are led by a president who has never had to prove his qualifications, perhaps should not even hold the office. Politicians whose ethics and actions are questionable, an economy, well, a gigantic portion of our citizens are living .... off of the government. We are a welfare state.
A portion of our population is living opulently, making millions and billions living in luxury like the world has never seen. Billionaires are driving down the street in chauffeured multi million dollar vehicles ... passing people who are homeless, hungry, living on that same street. I have often wondered what goes through the head of someone homeless, hungry, no job, no prospects for the future .... watching a limousine slowly drive by, carrying a few well dressed, well fed passengers, laughing and gay, not wanting to see what is outside the car window.
There a many who live in such squallier, such run down conditions, that anything that could happen in their lives, is a step up. That is why "they" may be offering "greener" grass for those who are looking on the other side ....................... an eeasy sell ......
