A Ravens view of issues that are Humorous, Relevant and Personal. “Would these words make the lost soul, bereft of hope nod his head and smile or throw up?”

Is Why - January 2008

Taking Raven to the Shed

January 4th 2008 08:53
We authors of these blogs, especially myself, often blog with the intent and hope of influencing the hearts and minds of others, to enliven, enlighten, entertain, amuse and even to vent our rancor in a positive constructive manner. When we cross over the line, we should find ourselves taken to task by our peers, audience and hopefully our conscience.


The rancor displayed in my blogs concerning the tactics of S.L. Bradish aren't meant to be personal. However, without the entire history accompanying the various blogs posted, it's easy to see it as a nasty, virulent attack against a hapless victim.

This possibility was beginning to nag at my conscience recently and confirmed to me by several friends and fellow bloggers; taken out of context, the underlying issues behind my recent posts are veiled and lost in the mists of Orble history to new readers.

I apologize for my loss of focus and actions; and will redress my attention in an appropriate fashion. Fortunately, I believe in the future if not always the immediate, the now; I've seen glimmers of inspiration and hope.

However, to make myself clear, I remain intolerant of the following:

- Wrapping the flag of the USA around hateful speech,
- Proffering inflammatory dialogs that can be the source of physical harm to others,
- Unsubstantiated robo (propagandizing) speak about any topic,
- Rigid intolerance of any opposing argument,
- Chronic propagation of misinformation, aka lying,
- Religious or class intolerance,
- Anyone I find annoyingly stupid.




Well, I am going back to my meditations.

Raven

Actually I really am refocusing Techno, I have enough of a command of the language to step away from the equivalent of "your momma" jokes; but I really do find them amusing.

Annoying folks aren't deserving of flogging, ..damn!

That illustrator of that kitten has the right idea.

Raven if you try to start a group hug I am leaving.

Culturally speaking Australians come from Irish, British and Scotts that means we are the most repressed people on Earth.
So no hugging!

hahaha, naw, I read the comment about your wife limiting your social intercourse Damo. Out of respect for her staunch determination to remain the primary beneficiary of your personal touch, I'll cheerfully acquiesce to her desires.

Groups hugs are now off of the table. Raven

it's easy to see it as a nasty, virulent attack against a hapless victim.

She's anything but a hapless victim, I can just picture her sitting on her front lawn with a big smile and shotgun in hand waiting for someone to step into her property.

katyzzz they were eaten by voracious carnivores or got lost in the entertainment maze craze.

D.Armenta you must be quite a visualizer, OMG, it rubs off.... now I'm grossed out!

I can truly understand your mindset Jim.

Thank you all for the visit, take some of the pink stuff to help settle your innards and rejoin the conga line...altogether now; boom boom, boom boom, bump, ah... and the march of life continues on.

No, I LOVE IT! GREAT BIG SLOBBERY CRY BABY HUGS FOR EVERYONE!!!!

Well...almost everyone....tee hee!!!

I too come from Irish, English, Scottish and WELSH (never forget the Welsh!) stock, all boiled down in the land of Oz, oh, and I found out recently, French and Mongolian blood too!!

I guess that makes me a mongrel Mongol?

I really like the Mongol part, which is probably why I also like sticking it to the scared little bigots that scuttle around the shadows in this virtual, yet real, fool's paradise!

Cheers Raven...and guess what, for ages I thought SL Bradish was a male! I don't think I have to comment further about that...

Ah, Fog, Spite-R Woman isn't really a man.

Here's a recent Save The Human Race publicity photo.

Cheers.

Oh, I nearly forgot- I tend to be an Euro Mutt American Native Fog, or very common French Cree depending upon whose telling the tale. Raven

Hi Raven

No need to apologise especially not for this:

Anyone I find annoyingly stupid.

I also thought SL was a man (as Fogger said) and yes, always remember the Welsh...
