The Death of an Icon

On this day, the 25th of June, 2009, Michael Jackson has died of a cardiac arrest. A loss for the world. Tragic. Think what you may of him, he was a pop icon. He inspired millions to follow in his steps. Ask any person who lived through the 80's who are your idols and almost invariably they will tell you, "Michael Jackson." He will be sorely missed.

The View in the Broom Closet

   Right now the only reason I am able to be on this computer and bring to you another post, is because I have not the eyes of another who would see this and immediately ask what I am doing or bring about a dry spell of this blog. I yearn for the day when I can speak to such people freely about certain things and it not come to ill consequence. I always speak the truth but I do not always speak freely. I cannot, at this time, do anything that may jeopardize the relationships around me.  Hopefully some day I will be able to converse in free tongue with my family about who and what I am, but as for now, I simply wait. I am a pagan currently in the broom closet. I will simply have to learn in secret and I will continue to share with you my knowledge and opinions. I will try to make a new post at least once a week, but I can't make any promises for the time being.

Some people are assholes. For example: My family and I were driving earlier today to make an appointment when some idiot pulled out of a residential street not looking for oncoming traffic, and not even heeding the stop sign! He pulled out right in front of us and we had to swerve to avoid him. My little sister was riding shotgun. He seriously could have fucking killed her! Every action has a consequence. One mistake could end someone's life. Lesson here:fucking look before you leap!

Technology and the Accessability of Information

Waaaaay back in the early 1980's nobody had ever really heard of the internet. People got their information from, t.v., radio, newspapers, books, and magazines, many of which were not available in certain areas. Once the internet was invented, there was an explosion of information as all these things began to collide and morph into one. My question now is this: Why, in the name of all that is holy, in the name of the series of tubes, does it seem that there are so many IDIOTS on the internet? There are people on the internet who ask questions and dont even bother to use a search engine to do their own research, and when they do, they take the information from the very first link to be fact. Read, people! READ! Use google, ask.com, yahoo, or any other reputable search engine to find the answers you seek and if you can't find online that which you seek, look elsewhere! Read books, magazines, and articles pertaining to the subject of your search. Look for people who may know! Do not be the idiot that does not bother to do the research!
