GOTTA LOVE TEH BRITISH--- NEWS TODAY.. THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH WAS CITED FOR "NOT SHOWING CARE AND CONSIDERATION ON THE ROADWAY." -- CAN YOU IMAGINE HAVING A LAW LIKE THAT ON OUR BOOKS??? COUPLE THAT WITH THE CONCEPT OF THE PAYING OF FINES IN PROPORTION TO THE INCOME OF TEH FINED. WE COULD SOLVE TEH NATIONAL DEBT WITH ONE WEEKEND IN BOSTON... OR EVEN BETTER... NEW YORK..
NOT ALLOWING ALTERNATE CARS TO ENTER TRAFFIC ??? $1300 FINE
CUTTING OFF SOMEONE TRYING TO CHANGE LANES?? $1682.42
I WONDER IF IT COULD PERTAIN TO PLACES OTHER THAN THE ROADWAY-- KNOWING THE BRITISH, I BET THEY HAVE SOMETHING....IF I LEARNED ANYTHING AT TEH UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH, IT WAS MY FRIEND "NOTHER GWEN" SAYING
"WE BRITISH JUST DON'T DO THAT " -- I HAVEN'T A CLUE WHAT THAT WAS IN RESPONSE TO, BUT IT STOPPED ME SHORT EARLY IN MY YEAR THERE- WHERE I REALLY HAD TO REDO MY THINKING SO I DID NOT BECOME THE "UGLY AMERICAN" AS WAS IN THE BOOK.-- I NEVER READ TEH BOOK... WITH A TITLE LIKE THAT , IT WAS NOT NECESSARY..I WATCHED OTHER AMERICANS AT THE UNIVERSITY AND THERE WAS A "BIGGER BETTER NEWER SMARTER CLASHING OF STATUS CYMBALS" ATTITUDE.
WELL THAT WORKED UNTIL RUSSIA GOT SPUTKNIK UP AND THE USA SET FORTH AN EFFORT WITH GREAT FANFARE AND OUR SATALITE GOT 4 FEET OFF TEH GROUND AND FELL OVER.
THIS PROVIDED THE BRITISH HUMORISTS WITH MONTHS OF MATERIAL- "THIS WAS THE WEEK THAT WAS" WAS THE SHOW TO LISTEN TO.. AS THEY PORTRAYED A STATESIDE SCIENTIST UP ON A LADDER HAMMERING AT A BIT OF METAL .
COMPETITION IS A WONDERFUL THING AS LONG AS IT IS PROPERLY CONTAINED-- PROBLEM IS IT SIFTS INTO OUR DAILY LIFE WHERE YOU END UP WITH FOOTBALL FANS BEATING EACH OTHER SENSLESS OFVER TEH COLOR OF THEIR JERSEYS - AND 2 LITTLE KIDS ARGUING ABOUT SOMEONE GETTING AHEAD OF THEM IN LINE... DOES THE TEACHER EVER HAVE THE TIME TO STOP ALL ACTION AND ASK TEH 2 KIDS INVOLVED "WHOA... TELL ME.....EXACTLY WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?"
I HAVE A FEELING OUR FAVORITE TEACHER "DAWN" COULD DO AN EXPIRIMENT FOR US... SHE HAS A BEAUTIFUL RELATIONSHIP WITH HER STUDENTS ( AS TEHY STUDY MY MIS -SPELLLINGS) IF SHE TOOK A STUDENT- AND SAID "LETS GET IN LINE BEHIND XXXX" HOW MANY KIDS WOULD SAY "HERE GET IN FRONT OF ME" AND HOW MANY WOULD TURN EVERY SO SLIGHTLY TO GET THEIR SHOULDER TO BLOCK ANYONE FROM GETTING "AHEAD" OF TEHM..
BODY LANGUAGE IS VERY SUBTILE... BUT I SEE THAT CONCEPT AT AN EARLY AGE-- THEN THEY GET TO BE A 16 YEAR OLD DRIVER AND THAT SUBTILE COMPETITION IS STILL THERE. "MY CAR CAN GO ZERO TO SIXTY IN 4.2 SECONDS"
OH... GOODIE... I CAN NOT THINK OF A PLACE AROUND BOSTON WHERE IT WOULD BE A NECESSARY TO DO THAT. CERTAINLY NOT AT COMMUTING TIME. THERE IS A CAR AD OUT THERE NOW WHICH BRAGS ABOUT HOW WELL IT CAN CLIMB 900 STEPS- ----PERSONALLY, I TRY VERY HARD NOT TO REQUIRE MY CAR TO CLIMB EVEN ONE CURB-- SO I CAN NOT IMAGING TO WHOM THEY ARE APPEALING... .
*****
ADVERTISING-- A FAVORITE OF MINE... I THINK THE LITTLE PIGGY CRYING WEE WEEE WEE ALL THE WAY HOME GETS AN AWARD FROM ME.. ON CONCEPT , DIFFICULTY, AND ACTORS EXPRESSIONS-- II CAN JUST IMMAGINE A YOUNGER VERSION OF MYSELF IN TH BACK SEAT TRYING TO HOLD A CLEAN PIG'S HEAD OUT THE WINDOW FOR AT LEAST 53 "TAKES" .---- "CUT... REDO... THE PINWHEEL WAS NOT ROTATING. " ---- AND YOU TRY AGAIN..
THIS IS WHY I NOW PLAY WITH SERVICE DOGS.
