BARREL OF MONKEYS: "GENESIS" in Reverse


I consider myself a Democrat. Been called a Socialist. Definitely a bleeding heart liberal.


As a child from a traditional southern family, playing Barrel of Monkeys on the floor, church every Sunday, doing well in public school, learning a trade; in every sense privileged .........


Comfortable in middle age, an avid news reader, on learning the tragic story of a full grown chimpanzee destroying the face of a woman who offered a toy, only trying to help it's owner coax her surrogate child back into his cage......


Today being confrontational, ribald, offensive, restless, rebellious.......


How did I get here from there?

MOM! HE KILLED MY DOG!

Cop shoots, kills family dog ajc.com:

"'Mom! He killed my dog,'
 King said her son screamed.

Lawrene King said police officers were still at her home when she returned.
The family had an electric fence, but there was not a sign alerting the officer it was there, Daniel said.

“I have really worked hard to teach my children about authority. I’ve also taught my children you take responsibility for everything you do,' Lawrene King said. 'We’re all human, but don’t try to justify.”

The police department released the following statement Monday: 'The Clayton County Police Department certainly sympathizes with the loss of this animal in this unfortunate incident.'"

"One thing I like about the Digital age: having the dictionary at my fingertips, how easy it is to look up unfamiliar words as I go along reading." "At least....... until, I played my first game of SCRABBLE on the internet. Wow! I had no idea you could spell so many words with seven letters every time." "Now I feel pressured to catch up!"
