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?

TWO BE OR NOT TWO BE; THAT IS THE QUESTION

DISCREET?

If you are part of my life, then you are part of my story.  Sorry; just the way life is.

I have no idea who is reading my blog or why.  I have bared my bared soul, not ashamed of by poor grammar, spelling, sentence structuring, logic; it is an important part of who I am.  I have no problem being with being shown how to make the same point correctly; disagreed with if you can explain where my logic/reasoning  went wrong.

Phrases I can't stand to hear,
"Just your opinion!"  That automatically means.... you disagree. Nothing more nothing less.  Enlighten me.  Please.

"Too much information!" "Don't go there."  "Don't want to hear it!" etc., etc., etc.  That I'm the most opinionated person, anyone has ever met.  What the fuck is that suppose to mean, "the most opinionated person?"  Is it even possible to have just one person that opinionated.  It's my understanding, we've got two minimum.....period.  Or did you not recognized an opinion until you heard one different from yours.

Another thing I can stand is someone discounting someones opinion because of their poor grammar.  As if someones opinion with perfect grammar is the more logical, correct opinion.

Well I'm hearing impaired.  It's a packaged deal. I refuse to have my opinions/observation discounted for whatever reason.  I've learned to pay attention.  Sometime I know someone is about to say something before anyone in the room hears anything.  On the dance floor of a disco, I hear better than normal hearing people because of above average lip reading; even thing about other people including me they thought unaware believing out of hearing distance or their back is to me (don't all dance floors have mirrors).  Like Spanish and French, although not as important being English has a word for just about everything making facial expression and hand gesture unnecessary,  it's still there. There are things I just know occasionally.  What can you do.  You just pretend you didn't hear it; and move on.

It would be nice to who and why if any are reading/interested in what I have to say; even if just entertainment.




"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!"
