News of the Day (edited)
Here you go.
Having abandoned US news long ago, I’m coming to depend on foreign news more and more, as real and true indicators of what is REALLY going on in our world.
Take, for example, the following two stories.
This first is from quite a while back, really, almost 50 years ago, and shows how our corporate culture can hide from us the truth about where our food comes from
The Annual Harvest Rituals
and this second, well, this one shows how wrong we can be about the things we think we "know" are true. For example, before viewing this video story, ask yourself how many things you "know" are true about how you view the world. Are there really only "men" and "women"? Is the earth flat or round? Is capitalism really better than socialism? Are you really really sure? We thought coelocanths were extinct, till we found one in the 1960’s. We’re sure there’s no such thing as Bigfoot, or Nessie. Right…
Everything You Know Is Wrong
Okay, that’s all for tonite. Go and meditate on the truths you have seen here. And be well.

RYN: ‘The Eye”s about a girl who’s blind from birth, who has her eyes replaced but then she starts seeing things that aren’t there… or are they? WHOO! The Asian version was genius. Just Googled Claudia Black, she really looks the part, doesn’t she? I was never sure about Angelina Jolie, but maybe that was more down to the writing than her performance.

RYN: He hosted a show called ‘Art Attack’ back when I was a kid, the show was legendary! He’d go out in a field and make a giant picture of a fish using a team’s football strip or something. That’s way I was worried he was dead, but yay, he isn’t!

Yes, Cheney and Rumsfeldt are both bit Friedmanites, as well as a bunch of the other Neocons. Reading Naomi Klein’s Shock Doctrine is worth the time.
