About 3 weeks ago I decided to get a low-end fitness watch. It was amazing. Why? Because it could record my blood pressure while the watch was sitting on my desk.

That went back and I ordered a medium priced Fitbit watch.

Expecting better results, I again questioned the accuracy. While 2 times around my community is three-quarters of a mile, it was able to record lots more calories burned than the first watch. It rained one morning and I sat on the corner of the bed strumming guitar. To my surprise, it recorded I had some 1,200 steps and burned lots of calories, more than a brisk around the condos. That model didn't have the ability to check blood pressure. It didn't mater... I returned it too!

What I disliked about both 'fitness' watches is the amount of information they requested of me. I realize height and weight statistics helps it make correct calculations for walking and running. I wasn't a willing participant for food intake, amounts of liquids, messages when I need to be active and at rest.

I cleared the data, personal information and deleted the apps from my phone. Maybe one day I'll train for the Olympics or a local marathon and would reconsider another fitness watch. For now, my answer is no...

Would you care what you ate....if you could not taste or smell?

(what has caused taste and smell disappear lately?)


Would you care who you loved or had s*x with...as long as it satisfied you?

(what is going on today with the corn industry and the toy industry?)

Would you care about how you spend your free time....if you could immerse yourself at home through your electronics?

(what is going on with the tech industry today?)

Would you care about morals and ethics....if you could get away with being unethical and immoral...in other words, do whatever pleases you?

(what is going on with religion today?)

Would you be able to look at others (especially opposite s*x) with compassion...if you are being told to despise them?

(what is going on today between genders...and other divisive message we are being fed today?)


I am sure I can go on and on...


The ultimate question is...are we giving up what makes us human beings?

What do you think?

Are you noticing yourself starting to become numb?

FOX finally realizing that their recent loss of (US) $787,000,000 in a lawsuit in which lies by Tucker Carlson played a huge role, facing additional even larger lawsuits in which, again, false statements on the air play a large role, and having been notified their core broadcast license is under FCC review saw the writing on their wall and has released Tucker Carlson from their network.

30 years since Jimmy Valvano's historic speech.

Jim Valvano (Jimmy V) was an American basketball player, coach, and broadcaster. In this speech, given shortly before he died from cancer, Valvano announced the beginning of the V Foundation for Cancer Research. This speech was originally delivered at the ESPYs on March 4, 1993.




Transcript of speech:

Well, it doesn't matter who you are, you can still have adulterous relationships and become king of England and the commonwealth. And supreme governor of the church of England. According to previous interviews on TV Charles admitted his relationship with Camilla, who now becomes Queen consort. The marriage to Diana had apparently irretrievably broken down.
It was definitely a CROWNAFFAIR.

This is a man that knows what he is talking about.

1 you cannot smack child

2 you have to respect childs gender --male being female or the reverse.

3 you have to let them know about (all) genders

4 you cannot say (black) you know like a black licorices or similar.

5 you as a boss cannot tell staff to get finger out.

6 you as a male cannot touch a women in comfort if she is crying.

7 you have to let people have their say and disrupt traffic as the glue themselves to road.

need i go on you all can add to the list i am sure.

At 4:45 this morning, several phones in my house sounded an alarm. I got up to read the message:
Imminent extreme alert
TEST - This is a TEST of the Emergency Alert System.
No action is required.

Little do they know, some action is required. That message could have gone to a few hundred thousand cellphone users and someone should be responsible for their actions.
I equate that to yelling FIRE! in a movie theater and then saying "Only kidding."

As a kid, we had Civil Defense sirens located around the city, usually on top of schools or government buildings, designed to be used in the event of extreme emergency... like Russia sending off some nuclear missiles from Cuba that's only 90 miles away!

You could set your clocks by it as they sounded on the first and third Saturday exactly at 1pm and run for about 3 minutes. Yes, testing at 1pm.

I'd certainly like to know what genius scheduled emergency tests at 4am.
