"Three Concerns"

Build Back Better

Two Sided Information

Critical Race Theory


Many Years  ago My Dad gifted me with this board.  The reverse side clearly states "Board of Education!"  I am suggesting that this device may be appropriate for use at all levels of our Government here in the United States of America.

28 October 2021 - Our President presented a Speech to the Citizens of the U.S.A.  I am confident that may peoples around the world also watched and listened.  My summary of this Event is:

I watched Our President's Death With Dignity Speech! Unless I missed it he did not mention the fact that over 20 Heroes/Military Veterans take their lives each day here in the USA. Also, I did near him mention the 13 Heroes who recently were murdered in Afghanistan a few weeks ago during the poorly planned/executed departure from Afghanistan!!

 

I continue to be amazed that so many of our educators and elected leaders feel that our current President is saving the USA!!!  

27 October 2021 - I Published via E-Mail and also Facebook seeking an answer:

A Friend of Mine has asked me to find out.  They have no internet connection by their own choice!!

I just posted this on FaceBook, however I desire to expand the potential to learn the real answer.

I am asking this for a Friend.  Was our current White House Press Secretary a Scholar that was part of the Test and Evaluation of “The Common Core” Curriculum?  Or was she educated by a System that used The Common Core Curriculum?  Admittedly I do not know her age, however My research indicates that this system was established in 2008 and eventually adopted by a plethora of States in the 2010 time frame.

If this is the case My Friend appreciates why we have so much double talk from the current Press Secretary!

When I entered Common Core Education in My search engine this is what I first saw, so the answer to the question may be resolved.




28 October 2021:   For several days I have been composing a post regarding "Critical Race Theory" (CRT).  I have watched the news and listened to the concerns of parents who have become quite concerned at their respective School Board Meetings concerning CRT.  It has now reached the point that our USA Department of Justice has determined that these very concerned "Parents/Concerned Citizens" are considered Terrorist and the Attorney General has tasked the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to check these Citizens out to appropriately even arrest them.  I can appreciate our Attorney General's concern, however I have learned this his own child has married a "Citizen" who is promoting the teaching of "Critical Race Theory" to our Children.  So now it becomes a "family issue."  The Attorney General may be ready to be an empty nester with his significant other and he does not desire to have the married daughter come back home.  So he is doing everything possible to insure that his married daughter can be supported in an appropriate manner by the very person who is working hard to promote "Critical Race Theory" to all of our Students that attend Public Schools.  Makes sense to me.  However I suggest that this is surely a conflict of interest on the part of the Attorney General who may be looking forward to his own retirement with the burden of supporting the married daughter should her Spouse become unemployed!  

I am shocked that our Government is now overlooking the basic concept of governing a Republic!!  From My point of view, many are merely serving their own personal interest.

So, I am suggesting that the Board of Education by employed with "Care" as displayed in the picture at the beginning of this post!  Thank You!

2021 Major League Baseball

National League Pennant Race

23 October 2021

Game Six

Truist Park

Atlanta, Georgia

My Son and I hosted His Son to this dramatic game which the Atlanta Braves won over the Dodgers with a score of 4 to 2.


30 Years ago I hosted My Son to a Major League Play Off game at Three Rivers Stadium in Pittsburg, PA.  The was game seven and the Braves won and then traveled to the Twin Cities for the World Series.  The Twins were the World Series Winners in 1991.  

The first game of the 2021 World Series will be played on 26 October 2021 in Houston, Texas.  

Here is a series of pictures from the Play Off game we attended on Saturday, October 23, 2021


The following pictures were taken by My Son as we three boys enjoyed a "Boys Night Out" watching the Braves Win over the Dodgers with a score of 4 to 2!!










We did arrive early enough to enjoy a fine meal at "Gardens and Guns" at the Battery which was hosted by My Son!!!  Summary a wonderful day.

Fall Planting

Cooler Days and the need for some Fall Color around the House and the availability of appropriate plants caused this series of plantings on 12 October 2021.


Ornamental Peppers - from left to right:   Sangria/Sedona Sun/Zamora Red/Sedona Sun/Sangria.  This Planter was placed on the table so we could enjoy morning coffee and other meals.  The Ornamental Peppers were purchased at Ace Hardware and the Planter was aeuired at Lowe's.



Zinnias and Mums placed in pots for the front entrance!  These plants were purchased at Mossy Corners near Smarr, Georgia!!





The planting in the two urns was accomplished in May and includes Ruby Slipper Coleus and "Orange Rocket" Barberry - Berberis thunbergil.  The plants identified in the urns were purchased at "Goodness Grows" in Lexington, Georgia!!!


To finish this Post I will also show the 13 Autumn  Ferns that were planted much earlier this year.  They  have flourished.  I purchased the quart size and the size indicates that they have grown well!!  Proof that plants do grow well and considerable sums of funds can be achieved by being willing to wait for the plant to flourish!!  The ferns were purchased at Site One on Thomaston Road in Macon, Georgia!

"We All Have Choices"

Each day in our own respective lives we all have choices!!!


Or in the case of a Georgia Prisoner whose case was just concluded, He has performed several choices with consequences.  His name is Donnie Rowe!


 Both of these situations are/were certainly drastic choices which is "Killing!"

The Top photo "My Body, My Choice" and the Bottom photo which could have the label "Your Body, My Choice" clearly point out two of the major problems with Our Society today.  In fact it could also be understood and stated that these problems are evident in the Society of the Whole World.

"Something We All Must Consider!"
