Even after the birth of the new Royal Prince, they seemed reluctant to let us personally see the newborn, as if it were kind of a state secret or a new I Phone before the official release date. It seems that “All of the TV stations” had
news of the Royal birth on at noon but I missed it because KTLK didn’t breathe
word one of this story. Kate Middleton
gave birth to a boy, the third prince in line for the throne of England. Finally I saw some television coverage at
four with the Town Cryer and all that.
It was a baby boy born at 4:24 Grenwich Daylight Time. That would be after eight here when all we
were being told was that Kate had gone into labor and was eight centameters
dialated. The mood was spoiled because
David Cruise made a total ass of himself on his show today. At one point he was going to interview a lady
who was to give us details about the birth.
But he’d let her talk for maybe ten or fifteen seconds and talk the
whole rest of the hour saying the same thing over and over, how he just doesn’t
care. In case David hasn’t noticed we
need a little good news. Certainly David Cruise reads the gloom and doom headlines. Doesn't he think the people are entitled to a little hope- - or at least some kind of Escape, if only for a moment? This prince
will be the chief of State for fourteen commonwealth nations and also the
titular head of the British armed forces.
If David thinks the birth of a baby is stupid to celebrate, than I
assume he has no love of Christmas. The
difference is that this child is real and his whole future lies ahead of
him. It’s funny how come people get the
real and the imaginary mixed up.
I guess if we have to
we’ll do all of these downer stories on race.
It would seem that the arrest and charging rate of Black drug offenders
is six times the rate as for Whites per capita.
And the incarseration rates for Blacks are ten times as high as for
whites. The United States has the
highest per capita incarseration rates in the world by far. Some 25% of the world’s total prisoners are
in the United States. Sixty percent of
these are Blacks. Blacks get the same sentences
for non violent drug offences as Whites get for violent crimes. One in three Black men will at some time in
their life be incarserated. That woman
in Florida may have gotten twenty years for firing a gun into the ceiling. But there were these BART transit police that
arrested eight Blacks on Newyears Eve they thought were roudy- - and one of
them didn’t “assume the position” quick enough and was shot dead in the back,
and his name is Oscar Grant. (?) The cop who killed him got only two years and
that sentence almost amounts to time served.
As you can see justice is very different for Whites and Blacks. Now we have these Black teenagers who were
playing their car stereo too loud and this White guy fires eight bullets into
the car killing a black named Jordan. I
did not know this incident was also in Florida.
At this point I wouldn’t bet two cents on a just outcome stemming from
this case. Basically the “stand your
ground” law amounts to “Kill yourself a Nigger any time you feel like it”. Because it’s clear that Blacks don’t have the
same priveleges under this law. There
was something totally sick about Rush Limbaugh defending the slaughter of the
Indians by the United States. He
rationalizes it because “These various tribes made war with each other and
engaged in slave trade”. I think this
whole bit about slave trade Rush pulled out of his ass, just like Rev Peacock
made up the story about Jewish Priests sacrificing newborn babies to the god
Baal, in the time of Christ’s birth.
Rush thinks America is wonderful because “We are the only people to wage
a war to end slavery”. Of course knowing
Rush’s contempt for the National government- and upholding of - (wait for
it) State’s Rights- - it’s absurd to
think that Rush Limbaugh would have been a supporter of Lincoln. I can imagine a draftee saying “If I have to
fight a war they say is to free the niggers than I guess I have to. Just dome make me have to fight along side
one”.
This is later and “Jeopardy”
is just coming on. Kate Middleton is one
of the few commoners to contribute to the royal blood line. Dianne set new precedents as far as how her
sons were reared exposing them to the unseemly side of life. Last week the Federation was already
referring to the new Prince as “Kid Charlemagne”, after the Steely Dan song, because they claim that
Princess Kate had tipped off a reporter months ago that it was going to be a
boy. I wish they had told me. This is probably the most hyped baby since Zachery,
and the Federation was in fact hyping the birth before Mal Evans got
there. And it wasn’t until late summer
that Mal Evans was even apprised of the significance of Zachery. Of course there was thunder & lightning
on his first birthday, Sunday September 5th 1976. Zachery was both conceived and born on a new
moon (and a partial eclipse of the sun) as Pink Floyd fans everywhere are well
apprised of. This Prince is born on a
full moon. Of course on a strictly local sphere- - Pete Richards was constantly giving Zachery updates so to speak - or how this pregnency was progressing. He seemed a whole lot more interested in the pregnency of another woman, than what his own wife was doing, whom he rarely talked about during this period, except she was a grocery cashier at Gemco. These "updates" came frequently up through April of 1976. But for some inexplicable reason after I moved in with Jesus People, these little updates were way scaled back. And after the first weekend of the next July (1977) all contact ended for a period of nearly two years. I don't know if you knew that, and there is no reason why you would. There are strange anomalies (kind of like the Samantha Brady officer shooting case) that- - if nobody else cares to investigate, then I guess I don't either. I just thought I'd reenter edit and add these remarks the next day.
In other news- - that Six Flags roller coaster in Arlington, Texas had a weight limit of 180 pounds and this fat woman who fell to her death was 250 pounds. But neither federal nor state authorities will investigate the death but leave it to Six Flags to investigate themselves. They say that Roller Coasters are very safe and that the odds of being killed on a modern roller coaster are one in 750 million. I feel safe. There was some kind of landing mishap at Laguardia Airport and this time it was the front landing wheel that collapsed upon impact. Some people want national laws on virtually everything including the safety of Roller Coasters. I don't. Because the federal system of government we have was never meant to micro-manage every aspect of our lives. Sometimes people assume risks. If a 250 pound woman really wants to tempt the odds of being seventy pounds above the safety recomendations, then I hardly see what can be done for her. Not to put it too coldly but as conservatives sometimes put it, "Actions have consequences".

In the soap opera
Samantha was arrested during one of her high moments of glory. Don’t mess with mama bear. Adrian wasn’t pleased at either Samantha’s
apathy tword her warning nor to Sonny’s overt hostility, and not letting his
mother speak for a moment. Contrary to
what he thinks, sometimes if you don’t heed the barking, then dog bites follow,
and this is the case with him. Adrian went
to Abe Carrver, and a zealous lady distorict attorney, who wanted to make the
arrest right then and brought along another cop friend of the slain officer,
just in case Abe proved to be not up to the task. Christine learned that Brady knew she was
telling the truth and offered to start over with Christine. But this didn’t stop her from turning away
and going ahead with her plans, that will only hurt her, much more than any
intended target. I think the moral of
the story is that if someone offers you the olive breach- - it’s best to take it
because refusal could be hazardous. In
all three cases of Christine, and Samantha and Sonny, it’s a case of naked
pride that causes the downfall of these three.
Adrian negotiated immunity for her son from prosecution, but I don’t
think the offer was extended to Will. Chuck Smith says the reason why King Saul was told to commit utter Genocide on the race of the Alamikites killing every man, woman, and child is "because the Amalikite is a type of Sin that we are supposed to utterly eridicate from our lives". I guess the question then is "Well is Chuck Smith perfect?" A wise man once said "whatever standard you hold out for others to attain to, you yourself will be judged by it". Here's something funny. We have never seen Will and Father Eric in the same scene in the soap opera and I don't believe there is one documented word spoken in exchange between these two. Gee I wonder why. I guess it's something called plot continuity. Father Eric is so pure it's incinceivable even to the authors that Father Eric could bless Will and Sonny's "marriage" or whatever they're calling it these days.
