My Reality Check Bounced
Every day I wake up and after a brief check of all body parts to see if they are still attached and functioning as per specification, I open my eyes and visually inspect the current reality I am inhabiting. If gravity is still functioning and the atmosphere contains the proper amount of nitrogen and oxygen, I make a marginal decision to get out of bed and further inspect the status of current events. Most of the time the good news outweighs the bad and after a couple of cups of coffee, I quickly analyse my options and proceed to fill the day with the proper amounts of work and play.Quite often though, my fellow human beings perform acts that defy all logic or understanding. When this happens I usually sit down here at the keyboard and try to articulate my astonishment and often outrage. I'm just a tiny voice in the wilderness amid the cacophony of noise from various mindless sources that we all must endure every day of our lives but I have hopes that somebody out there will listen and decide not to do something they shouldn't be doing.
Then again, on some days, news reports like this one from Saudi Arabia cross my desk and I feel a sense of frustration and anger at certain members of homo sapiens sapiens who evidently are not as "sapiens" as the rest of us. Mindless murder and rage at the rest of the race by these evolutionary throwbacks can only be answered by one method: annihilation. They must be "put down" so that the rest of us can live in peace. There is no bargaining with them. There is nothing we have that they want .... except our death. They are the enemy and the only good enemy is a dead enemy. Period.
With that said, I also have to ponder this news story. I ponder the story, examine it from several angles, question whether I read it right and then .... go back to bed.
Today, my reality check bounced.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
