I don’t know why I’m on a Bill Maher kick. Probably because he is uncomfortably right about 75% of the time and funny about 90% of the time. Anyway, here was a comment on his page from a viewer. I found it very insightful about AZ immigration and from a legal mexican Arizonian. :) Take a look. Aloha Bill, I subscribe to HBO just for your program. I feel that you are on point 90% of...

Watched Face The Nation this morning. At this point, the GOP and DNC don’t even live in the same reality. I will say if we have a Civil War, I’m going with the GOP - they have more guns.
What is the most powerful word in the English launguage?
We tried the new Bakery Around The Corner this morning for something different. Sometimes change can be good. This morning change was just mediocre…
Ha! We went to a vegan restaurant as kind of an accident. Were going to make the most of it but Traci’s kinda jacked about it. Hehe…
People always talk about religion as an emotional experience in connecting with that which created you? What, then, if my most emotional-intellectual experiences are derived from Harlan Ellison’s volumes of canon? Am I then an atheist, Jew whose heaven is an faux Aztec temple in the Hollywood Hills?

Don’t get caught in other’s expectations. Quiet the voices until you can hear your own then follow that.

Life is about choices. Always so many choices. I have to remember to choose in radials. Family first, then the rest of the world.
The only reason we get disappointed is due to our expectations, not reality. Remember, life will unroll as it will. It’s how we choose to view it that causes our reactions.
Watching this dream documentary. Amazing stuff, our dreams. Going to pay attention to them again. Maybe I’ll post some. Buckle up. I’ve been told my dreams are especially wierd. :)
Can you still hear your inner voice over the din of social programming you receive?
Okay. Vacation is over. Getting to work.

If you are primarily concerned with being popular, you will never be able to make the hard choices.

Life doesn’t give you success. It gives you opportunities. If you keep hoping that something will grab you and make you successful, you’ve got it backwards. YOU need to reach out grab the next opportunity that comes by and see where it takes you. Then, repeat until successful.

State of the Union
I saw a beautiful organization that lit up a Detriot building with a laser message. It said, “We are all in this together.” I wish our government could get over their differences and pull together. I wonder who is to blame. I think everyone pointing fingers and demanded we do it their way is never going to work. I thought these guys were professionals …
Have you given what you can?
A friend asked me, “Why donate to Haiti when we have so much happening here?” I told him it’s about tolerances. Personally, I can’t sit idly by when hearing about mothers digging their children out of rubble for four days, listening to their screams fade as they die. That is way beyond my tolerance. We donated as much as we could. I hope you will consider doing the...
Traci got the coolest comment tonight ...
My wife got this on her blog tonight, “Don’t know if you still get comments from this Blog, but I just wanted to let you and Prime know that I met him very briefly one night on Mill Ave, years ago. Maybe he did prime me, because my life changed pretty drastically soon thereafter. I’ve finished my degree in Biology and am now working on becoming a middle school science teacher...

Degrees of Defense
I was going through some oriental philosophy and was inspired to create my Degrees of Defense: —
Understand rather than Confront Confront rather than Hurt Hurt rather than Injure Injure rather than Maim Main rather than Kill
For Life is not yours to take And you cannot replace it.
— Maybe it works for you or perhaps you can make your own.
Talk about a true leader!! Seriously ... →
Funny Conversation just now ...
Me: Here, try this juice I just made.
Traci: Is it good?
Me: It's fair, but just try it.
Traci: (Sip) Pause
Me: So?
Traci: It tastes like grass with some apples
Me: Yea! It does!

Being “nice” doesn’t always mean making people feel better. The nicest thing someone could do is make us BE better.

Not ONLY do we sit obediently and allow maketing weasels to burrow into our brain during television shows…
And not ONLY do we allow those shows to melt our brains to the point we can’t escape the weaselly commercials …
BUT with Cable, DirectTV, and DISH, we actually PAY for the priveledge of watching their commercials!
Talk about adding insult to INJURY!!
What To Do When People Commit Cyber Crimes Against...
As Citizen Prime, every blue moon, I get an email from some poor soul who says he wants to kill me or give me a beat down or whatever. Yes, this is actually a crime. So, on the off chance this should ever happen to you, here is what I typically do when I get them.
Run a full header from your email to get an “originating IP address”.
Google the IP address and follow the trail...
I wish everyone a new year of boundless potential.
The threshold of 12/31 to 1/1 is always a good time to remind ourselves the past is not the future. Live 2010 out loud!

You know, when something so big, ambitious in nature and cutting edge as Avatar comes out and people HAVE to say stuff like, “yea, but the story wasn’t that great,” I lose faith in our collective ability to simply celebrate the amazing achievements in the world.
Must we blindly accept our “subliminal training” by the nay sayers and critics to have a tit-for-tat...
Consider This:
Instead of complaining about who people are, maybe try seeing who they want to be.

Terrifying Thought!
What if you focus so much on the injustice and unhappiness in the world and don’t focus on making your circle of enfluence happy?
Are you really contirbuting to “the right solution?”
