CURRENT EVENTS
I believe America is still the land of the free and the home of the brave, not because of what I see in the media and on Facebook, but what I see first hand.
I suspect the divisive racists, media, career politicians, career activists, Antifa and other anti-American organizations that are trying to bring America down are going to get a big surprise when the American people have had enough.
BOOK OF THE WEEK
I’ve read both of these books.
Common Sense
By Patrick Henry
As for the importance of this book, John Adams, our second president, says it far better than I can. John Adams said, “Without the pen of the author of Common Sense, the sword of Washington would have been raised in vain.”
The Communist Manifesto
By Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles
The Communist Manifesto (officially Manifesto of the Communist Party) presents an analytical approach to the class struggle (historical and present) and the problems of capitalism and the capitalist mode of production, rather than a prediction of Communism’s potential future forms. It also briefly features their ideas for how the capitalist society of the time would eventually be replaced by socialism, and then finally Communism.
MOVIE, PLAY OR TV SHOW OF THE WEEK
I’ve watched this film a number of times and just watched it again. It is absolutely wonderful and even more so if you know of some of the famous people on the Paris scene during the 1920s.
Midnight in Paris (2011)
MUSIC OF THE WEEK
“I Won’t Back Down
By Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers
ART OF THE WEEK
EXTRAORDINARY PERSON OF THE WEEK

WEEK’S JOKE
PHYSICAL TRAITS
It is important to know the function of your various body parts. This week, we are presenting the function of the little toe.
CHARACTER TRAITS
SOCIAL TRAITS
I believe there were good police in Minneapolis who knew the cop that killed George Floyd was bad news, but just minded their own business.
I believe there are medical professionals that are aware of unethical doctors and yet they do nothing about it.
I believe there were people in the Catholic Church who knew about those child molesting priests, and yet did nothing.
As career politicians, I believe there are people who know that the only way to get rid of them is term limitations.
LEARNING TRAITS
Since so many people are embracing socialism, which is the pathway to communism, I thought this sketch might be enjoyable.

I agree with you in the unity in society over rules the division in media or political front. I watched that movie twice and enjoyed it. I read one of the books and share your summary. Thank you for blogging.
