Pondering the Latest News

It's been a kind of newsy week. 
The biggest news of course is Egypt. I hope that they can have a smooth transition in to their next kind of leadership. I just hope they can be patient, because this kind of change always takes a long time to establish.   They have to remember that what they choose now will ultimately affect the next generation the most.

In other news lets see.... 
People are just getting more and more out of control for mostly selfish reasons. Payback seams to be what they focus on the most. 
I just want to know when payback stops.
Just listen to people talk about someone who might have done something accidentally. No matter what it was they think there has to be payback. This is how wars start, usually over something small. It just gets to the point that no one will remember why. 
I know we all want to just survive. It is in our nature to be dominate over others. We are no different then any other creature on this planet. But it's the way we go about proving dominance that is most of the time way off track. 

I could mention people like Lindsey and Charlie but are they really worth focusing on. I don't think so. I still say the best medicine for people like them would be to totally humble them by having them live with people like the Amish for lets say a year. No cameras, no reporters, no followers to do their bidding. Forced to work with their hands all day. No TV, no radio. No mirrors.Nothing electronic.
I have an idea there should be a place that is set up like 1880's style living. Think Little House on the Prairie, 24/7 for a year. Maybe we should all think about trying something like that. You never know if the world changes in drastic ways it might not be an option. 
Just think about it.

Jean Viken Cold Case

When I first started this blog one of the first things I wrote about was the murder of a local woman. She disappeared Jan 29th 2008 on one of the coldest days of that month. Her body was found I think in May of that year. She had been shot. Her van was found not long after she went missing up north. She was the mother of 4 young children and was going through a divorce at the time. Well here it is 2 years later and nothing has happened to try and find the person or persons responsible for her death. Why? I'm sure the whoever was responsible was really not that smart. It's as if the no one wants to get to the bottom of what really happened to her. Maybe she was not important enough. Maybe she was not connected to the right people.  I wonder what it would take to get more exposure to this cold case. If there was more pressure from some place else maybe the ones responsible would start to panic and make mistakes to expose the truth. It's time the truth was exposed. Remembe

Jean Viken update and other local things.

This past week Channel 7 has been doing stories on the cold case of Jean Viken.I did see one of them. In it the police said they know who did it but they are waiting for someone to come forward. But no matter what four young children will be without their mother for the rest of their lives because someone decided to end her life out of the meanness of their heart. Here is the story I found on the internet: Jean Viken's friends and family remember her as a loving mother of four young kids, a devoted daughter and sister. But nearly four years after her murder, a dark cloud hangs over Jean's memory, as they continue to search for answers. "We were having a birthday party for her because all of her friends would have wanted to get together like we would have done if she was here," Jane Hempel said. Almost five months after Jane Hempel reported her sister Jean Viken missing, family and friends gathered to celebrate her birthday, hoping to feel some semblance o

Pondering Japan's Earthquake

The earthquake in Japan is just another wake up call for us. It is so far the largest disaster we are dealing with right now. And with all those nuclear power plants having problems there, it will get a whole lot worse.  The earth is talking to us. Telling us the big change is upon us. Instead of fighting wars in other countries we should be preparing our people for this big change that will change our home, planet Earth, in a way that will make life allot more difficult to survive.  Japan had prepared for this kind of event to a point, but this kind of event to this degree is never fool proof.  My heart does go out to all those who are living through this right now.  I will give one prediction for the near future that some might say makes me sound like a crack pot but it is always a possibility.  Here it is: With all the things happening right now natural disasters and political unrest big changes are inevitable. Governments will fall apart, America included. People will have to rel
