Blog Fatigue!

I can't believe that I have not been posting anything on this blog for months. Maybe it is because I direct no one to this site to read anything I write, so my attitude is that the words just sit in digital limbo forever, or until Google says "enough" all ready, and decides that there is nothing in this blog that demands storage forever. On the other hand, from what I read of Google, they are of a mind to be the library of life on this planet, and hope to capture all the written, and perhaps spoken and visual information that is produced by all of mankind. If there are a million chimps pounding on proverbial keyboards in the hope that a single poem or essay is produced, Google will probably be monitoring that as well. So, perhaps the entire existance of intelligence of all types on this Earth will be captured and stored in their digital depository forever.

The last person alive on Earth will be tasked with the job of sending the last huge email carrying the entire sum of all knowledge on a very powerful radio signal off into space where eons later it will be picked up by a huge array of antennas on a lump of dirt in a distant galaxy, causing elation among the inhabitants who, after centuries of monitoring emmissions from the universe around them, find that they are not unique beings and there was another civilization in another galaxy far, far, away.

Perhaps they will have the capability of sorting through the trillions of digital codes and picking out those of most importance to study, and their advanced society's Google will speed through the archive and pick some pieces from this blog.

It is not that I have not been writing lately. I have recently written some poetry, and I have also written a skit for an upcoming meeting. It is a meller drama and makes me laugh out loud each time I read it. I tend to write specific to the situation and the inspiration of the moment. I also occasionally contribute on a political posting site populated by right wing whackos, and real lefty libererals who basically hit the ball back and forth across the net at each other. No one there ever wins the game. It goes on and on until boredom sets in, the moderator ends the discussion, or it just peters out when no one makes further contribution. It is reflective of our society at the moment. There seem to be no moderates who post on the site. There is little agreement on any subject. I guess the middle is boring. The effective work of government, however, is just that--boring. War, guns, abortion, death penalty laws, racism! Conflicting views on those subjects are not boring when the far right and left are so far apart in agreement on what is best for our society. I think the moderate "middle" in the country is getting fed up. The GOP right has made such a mess that there will be a "boring" revolution where good leadership will be selected to find solutions and agreements and bring back good common sense to government. There is to much war, guns, abortion, death, and racism. It all needs plainly to be fixed.

The Bush Administration has this country so screwed up that each day is made more difficult by the events in the headlines. The Sun comes up and shines, but not with optimism. One tries to count the days when reason and competence returns to government, but alot of bad stuff can still happen in the next 1 1/2 years. It is tiring!

I think I shall set aside 15 minutes a week to write on this blog during the remainder of this year.
