>>> SOME FUNNY THINGS HAPPENED AT WRITERS GROUP TODAY (in Puerto Vallarta):
1. First of all, no one could find the air-conditioner remote until I showed up, but I got a small person (leader Colin), to climb through the Mexican-sized hole into the bar to retrieve it -- so I didn't end up all sweaty from the squeeze, like last week.
2. Then Stanley showed up with a gregarious someone Wright in tow, exclaiming, "This is (someone) Wright -- and he's on the NO FLY LIST!!!" So being a Southerner (family-connections-crazed -- and also that Stanley is from Wilmington, NC, +/-), I asked him if he was related to the NC Wrights (meaning as in Wrightsville Beach, rather than Wilbur and Orville), and he said, "Stanley just asked me that!!!"
He's not, but he has legitimately published a novel -- and I never DID hear the story of how he got on the USA NO FLY LIST -- a little weird, no???
3. The meeting only had one actual reader, Santigo, who does some amazing writing in English, although his native tongue is Spanish -- and Joy, an actual professionally-trained editor -- works with him. Part of our discussion was the dumbing down of American Education, helped much by the "Individualism" of Americans who say FIRST OF ALL: "I am the KING of all ideas, and have the right to them -- agree with me or GET OUT OF MY WAY!!!", which means that no educated or informed opinion is better than a sleazy, self-serving bit of non-sense, and NOTHING is so hated in America as what these people call "Intellectual Elitism".
The whole purpose of American Society today is to homogenize everyone so they feel secure in believing the same things and walk in LOCK STEP with American Politicians who are confirmed in their godliness by Christian Religious Leaders.
Bernie Kerik with Candy Crowley
And I was MOST HEARTENED to hear how everyone seems to HATE CNN, especially (they know Fox News is mostly lies, so it is not in the running). CNN often seems to deliberately dumb-down language and no one there seems to even ALLOW anyone to use "fewer" where it is called for -- as opposed to "less". You can have less money -- but you have FEWER dollars. If YOU can't understand the difference between modifying a general thing or concept as opposed to that which can actually be COUNTED, then you TOO, need to GET OFF THE DRUGS!!!
Other notable CNN HIGH CRIMES OF TREASON, include continuing to use Bernie Kerik, who was not only Giuliani's Police Commissioner during 9/11, but George W. Bush's nominee to HEAD the Department of Homeland Security -- which he removed himself from consideration for, when investigations that led to his FOUR YEAR jail term (he served about 3.5 years and was recently released from prison), and paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines.
I am ALL FOR anyone being able to rehabilitate himself -- but CNN should DISCLOSE HIS PROVEN CRIMES, be sure he APOLOGIZES to the American Public, and EXPLAINS how he had become such a TRAITOROUS CRIMINAL.
Candy Crowley seems at the center of much of CNN CRIME, but then as folk wisdom knows, fat girls (and fat boys), often have NO SELF RESPECT.
John McCain, for more than a year now, has polled
consistently as America's Most Hated Senator -- HELLO?!?!?
My own mother, Ruth Anne (Meyer) Kenan, now nearly 92, of sharp mind, and living in Raleigh, North Carolina, has been verging on (or actually), OBESE most of the time since she was about 30.
Mom still looked quite fetching in 2009 at the Meyer Family Reunion in Indiana -- more on that here: http://scottkenan.blogspot.mx/2013/04/white-nazis-at-meyer-family-festival.html
American Knife-Storage Board
Joy graduated from East High School, which was built after my family moved away right before my senior year in 1968, but BEFORE my parents moved back to West Chester in about 1975, and my 10-years-younger sister, Julie, then actually graduated from East High School too. And my chemistry teacher (Mrs. Hewett or Hewlett), had Julie as a student -- and other teachers I had probably taught at East as well. I didn't think to ask Joy if she knew any of my teachers -- or Julie -- they were probably in the same class.
Anyway, in those schools, all in "Academic Track" were thoroughly trained as GRAMMAR NAZIS, so I now feel almost like Joy's BROTHER -- LOL!!!
