  STRANGER IN MY OWN COUNTRY   I’ll explain this later. Yesterday I went to Delaware. Never knew that was significant back when I wrote “Writing America Down” in the 90s. Still. I felt ill at ease.  The Wanderer “How often the lone-dweller anticipates some sign, this Measurer’s mercy — must always must— mind-caring, along the ocean’s windings, stirring rime-chill seas, hands as oars many long whiles, treading the tracks of exile— the way of the world an open book always.” (1–5) So spoke the earth-stepper, a memorial of miseries slaughter of the wrathful, crumbling of kinsmen: “Often, every daybreak, alone I must bewail my cares. There’s now no one living to whom I dare mumble my mind’s understanding. I know as truth that it’s seen suitable for anyone to bind fast their spirit’s closet, hold onto the hoards, think whatever  ********** “Can a weary mind weather the shitstorm? I think not. Can a roiling heart set itself free? I don’t think so. So often those hustling for the win must clam

Something wrong with that woman. Her hair’s a mess. So we asked Patsy what she thought about Biden.  

The Mind of God is a Tough Nut to Crack Thought he knew”The mind of God” I’ve been putting this off. It’s the easiest and the hardest part. None of you have any idea how hard and devotedly I have pursued the question of meaning . I wrote the best book of the last half of the 20th Century and the first half of the 21st.  Which was, for me, only getting started. I have blazed through all the new sciences, including Nonlinear Systems Analysis, Chaos Theory, Complexity Theory, Information Theory, Quantum Theory, and even Steven Wolfram’s “A New Kind of Science,” which is still an experimental predicter of perfect results without a real theory to explain it.  He keeps leaving out the part where Artificial Life and Artificial Intelligence are always set in motion by  an  INTELLIGENCE at the keyboard, setting  initial  conditions. Not a small omission. The programmer is God. Doesn’t even matter if he has pimples and STDs. Incredibly brilliant but still as dumb as a box of rocks. I kid you no

  Cute as she is, she didn’t win. No, it wasn’t Lia, talented as she undoubtedly is. The august cultural avatars at the University of Pennsylvania (many of them intimates of Earth Day Founder Ira Einhorn back in the day) were at a loss, stumbling around and asking each other why, why, why? But you know how wymyn-type beings are. Snark will have its day. Everyone had a theory about the prestige-denting loss to the Ivy League’s lowest member (no pun intended.) (Yeah, pun definitely intended. For a generation, Penn has been the Ivy League back-up school. I don’t like this fact given that ten members of my own own family went to Penn. Only two in the “Safety School” taunt era made famous by Princeton. Cousins.) S Some said it was the hairy pits, some the no tits, others the hulkish back bits… Despite Lia “ManMonster” Thomas dominating the NCAA swimming championships, the college sports organization went in a different direction for its Woman of the Year award, passing the honor onto an at

I wrote   the diary entry below almost exactly 25 years ago. I was reminded of it by a conversation on Real America’s Voice between Steve Bannon and radio legend Alex Jones. The topic was a new book by Jones titled, “The Great Reset” and a major new documentary about his controversial career called “Alex’s War.”  What’s amazing is that Alex Jones has been a figure of ridicule by the mainstream media… and yet. And yet the powers that be are engaged in a comprehensive, multi-pronged effort to bankrupt and destroy him utterly, including civil court actions in which he is literally prohibited from saying anything in his own defense while he is required by law to attend the proceedings and cough up the million-dollar fine slam-dunked on him by the judge. (Pretty similar to the Bannon criminal trial just concluded, in which he was refused the right to offer any defense at all and was therefore found guilty after a two-day trial.)  Questions. What on earth is causing this degree of institutio
