A Truth Journal: Time For New Unorthodox Solutions For Rapidly Changing Dangerous World Situations?


English: Navy SEAL


A Truth Journal: Time For New Unorthodox Solutions For Rapidly Changing Dangerous World Situations?: From Denny:  Watching this man-child implode in North Korea because of a rapidly deteriorating economy, placing the whole world on the brink of war and destruction, started me thinking this entire week about a radical approach for a change of world mindset, a paradigm shift.  After all, we can no longer operate on the 60-year status quo as set in place by the World War II generation after the Korean War peace signing.

It's past due time this generation institute a new program, one designed to preventing or circumventing this kind of international mess of loose cannon dictators and terror organizations that want to blow up the world. It would give the various sincere world leaders and experienced diplomats the time they need to work it out when there is an impending crisis.  Or, if all hell broke loose there is an apparatus in place globally, in every country, to do the horrifically unthinkable:  rebuild from nothing...

The Social Poets: Hurricane Adventure: Cooking by Candlelight on the Bayou

The Social Poets: Hurricane Adventure: Cooking by Candlelight on the Bayou: From Denny:  Have you ever noticed that when you go off the grid your mind turns to comedy?  OK, during a hurricane the mind often slides on down toward dark humor.

After all, your brain is geared up to engage with technology and suddenly finds itself in total withdrawal.  And, it's a good thing that humor was created.  It's the best weapon in the human arsenal for survival.

I went off the grid for three days - and hot sweaty nights - during the very long week of Hurricane Isaac...

The Social Poets: Groundhog Day Louisiana Style: New Orleans T-Boy, Baton Rouge Boudreaux


ocnutria01096.jpg


The Social Poets: Groundhog Day Louisiana Style: New Orleans T-Boy, Baton Rouge Boudreaux: From Denny: Groundhog Day contenders are popping up all over America. Groundhogs are not native to Louisiana (because it's too hot) but we didn't allow a little factoid like that to stop us. Louisiana likes it's holidays so what effort was it to rustle up another creative idea than to draft the swamp rat nutria into the Groundhog Day?

Up in the northern part of America it's considered really bad news when a groundhog sees its shadow, foretelling another miserable six weeks of winter. But here in Louisiana it means a spring that is shorter than usual.

A short spring means summer's grueling heat and drippy humidity will return sooner than desired. So, you see, burrow-loving animals can come in handy to predict the weather both in the chilly North and the hottie Deep South.

The Social Poets: Groundhog Day: How Many Talented Psychic Rodents In America?




The Social Poets: Groundhog Day: How Many Talented Psychic Rodents In America?: This is the stuffed, ok, taxidermied groundhog, known as Potomac Phil that hails from Washington, D.C. He gets wheeled out to the Dupont Circle Ground Hog Day celebration to determine whether he sees his shadow or not. Not sure who the human political hack is for him to make the announcement. But hey, the new burgeoning club played polka music to honor him.

His fans are hoping to raise enough money to replace him with a live groundhog next year. Until then, Potomac Phil continues to trash talk his beltway imitator Punxsutawney Phil in Pennsylvania.

And what is Punxsutawney Phil's response to this stuffed upstart? "Ah, Potomac Phil is Newt Gingrich's first cousin, all trash talk and no money. I'm the real deal since 1887."

Sweltering Summer Heat

*** Poem and photography: Ever wonder "just how hot is it?" this summer...








Sweltering Summer Heat






The country is baking in a heat wave.
Temperatures are rising high and higher.
Trapped heat stands like waving fingers
Escaping from the hot pavement in hope
It can ride the air to a cooler place.







Weathermen roll out maps of restless red,
Colored past state lines all over America.
High hot numbers marking the worst cities
Where people faint from the heat and
The energy grid strains to provide relief.








Emergency crews rush to put out fires and
Hospital emergency rooms fill up while
City officials turn off the electricity in
Rolling brown-outs to limp past high demands;
News media records it all, making you feel hotter.







People open their doors to go outside and
Are greeted by a blast of humid high heat
That just takes your breath away, gasping.
You touch the door on your car only to scream,
Burned as you grasp and lift the handle.







Inside the car, you fumble for the hot knobs
To crank down the air conditioning full blast
While you drive down the road sweating like
You just ran a marathon standing perfectly still.
And you ask yourself, “Did I really need those groceries?”
