Overly Sensitive Executives

The title is a little misleading. I got the complete nine seasons of Roseanne. The show covered everything over its nine years. Racism to Gay marriage. As a matter of fact, Roseanne was one of the first shows on who featured a gay wedding. They tackled Domestic Violence as an issue when no one else would touch it.

Now twenty years later the show was brought back and the ratings went through the roof. ABC desperately needed it. However, once the rating was up, Roseanne was thrown under the bus. Yes, she sent out a tweet that wasn't very nice. But that is Roseanne and she is right about the person. Valerie J does look like a monkey. Look at the bone structure of her face. Personally, I think if the execs had taken Roseanne aside and made clear this is unacceptable. No one remembers Jarrett and those under 15 don't know who she is.

Now ABC is considering a spin-off of Roseanne called The Conners. NO!  I won't watch it and I will consider boycotting ABC. The Conners will always be Roseanne and Dan. Roseanne Barr and John Goodman.

War Is A Racket

  This is an excellent quick read. If you don’t have ADHD, it’s a quick read. I started this book before Thanksgiving so between the holidays and every day crazy train I finally finished it. Of course, I made notes in each chapter about my thoughts. We’ll see if this helped compared to the chapter-by-chapter review we did on The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins.  Throughout the book, General Butler covers the ins and outs of war. He looks at the financial cost and the human cost. He starts out by explaining how the military-industrial complex was formed. Which I do think is critical. Most people in America don’t understand what the military-industrial complex is. Never mind how it is used. I am not going into detail here just read The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man. You will understand the order in which things unfold. The minority of Americans know who profits from war and who doesn’t. General Butler covers that as well. You will notice I said ‘m...

How America Angered God Lust

  We left off at Wrath. Now we will continue this list and finish it out. Sin: Lust This is the sin that nails us all. It is wanting power, pleasure, and money. Not necessarily all of these but one or all.  I grew up in the 1980s so when I think of examples of this particular sin I am reminded of Jim Baker and Jessica Hawn. He was married to Tammy and lusted after two things; money and Jessica. Their lust brought them down in the end. Tammy had her own lust for money that contributed to their downfall.  Ten Commandment:  Thou shall not commit adultery.  Virtue: Chastity Being chaste is recommended by Christ. In the book of Mathew chapters 19: 12 and 22: 20 Christ talks of being chaste. Being chaste teaches discipline. https://youtu.be/7Y8lHwOIu_A
