THE UNENTITLED
The idea for this blog post came to me gradually, as I have been quite busy observing people’s attitudes and behavior over the summer and during this election campaign for president.

THE BIG LIE
If you tell it long enough, people may believe it to be true. This can be true about any number of arguable facts. It’s not so much that people tend to be sheep, (which is sometimes true), it’s more like humans absorb what energy is directed at them. And if the information repeatedly beamed at […]
