Who Does What
Mise En Place
The more order you bring into your personal space, your family and work space, your community and environment, the less upset and disorder occurs from others.
Katharine Hepburn – The Simple Life
“You keep asking questions and posing situations, and I keep thinking of my father: A man whose sink had on it one big bar of durable, good soap. And that bar of soap was used for cleaning, shaving, and brushing his teeth. It worked fine; it was fast; it was economical. He could then get on with his day. I think we clutter our minds and our lives in a way people would have liked for my father to clutter his toilet. There is too much clutter and too much thinking and too much devising. I think you need to be true to your work and your friends–these should be small circles. People who have too many friends tend to have too few ideas, I find, and they cover up their disappointment with parties and chatter and movement. Focus on working well and being there for you, your work, and your friends. One bar of soap. Taught me a lot.”–Katharine Hepburn Interview with James Grissom 1990
(Tom: I think her father lived an overly complicated life. He shaved.)

A Christmas Wish
James Grissom: What is your wish?
Elizabeth Taylor: “For the most part, we live the life we craft with our thoughts and deserve with our actions. There is so much we cannot control, but I believe that we control most of what occurs in the orbit we have to always call ‘our life.’ We need to fill it with kindness and generosity; we need to observe it with curious eyes and constant questions; we need to give it away daily so that we are forced to re-build it all over again, growing stronger and more appreciative of what we have and what we have given to others. My wish is that we all craft a life that others enjoy visiting and enjoy having tour and bump into their lives. That’s my wish. That we all take the extraordinary God-given talents we all have and we use them for good.” (1991)

Princeton’s William Happer rebuts myth of carbon pollution
Dr. William Happer, professor of physics at Princeton University, summarizes his arguments about the myth of carbon pollution. It’s that myth that underlies global warming alarmists’ key arguments. Happer offered these comments during a Sept. 8, 2014, speech for the John Locke Foundation’s Shaftesbury Society.
The Source Of The Climate Scam
When you dive deep into the origins, history and actions of those pushing the climate change scam you come to the conclusion that it is a control operation planned to forward a tyrannical one world government. When you look how the two largest lobbying groups on the planet (those who lobby the US and EU governing body members) it quickly becomes obvious that the larger the government, the more it is subject to corrupt corporate influence. Small, local government does not seem to be immune from it. I think we need a new resurgence in ethics and morals to create a better society.
