Around here....the truth is....


         Another atmospheric river is pointed this way so we got out to look around before more drenching and snow on top what is a history making winter in California.


        It was too muddy for the hill climb and even the hard trail used by mountain bikers wore winter's damp.

        
        We noticed pockets of gold.



        The coastal trail also in full spring resurrection. 



       ** It has been written that "truth is a golden thread, seen here and there..."
The sweet truth of recent is that Fox News deliberately broadcast known lies and deceptions because, they reasoned, that is what Fox News viewers wanted. 
        I thought of Jack Nicholson in a famed scene "You want the truth, you can't handle the truth!" And so the golden truth seen here is that Fox News is never to be trusted. They violated the truth for the sake of money and in the rotten act made it worse by cheating their own audience, manipulating and patronizing them. 
        That comes as no surprise to informed citizens. Many years ago a nationally prominent American politician who has since gone on to other international prominence dropped a dime on me to say that Fox News might be interested in hiring me. This was before they had hit the air. When I pushed him about who's involved he told me "Roger Ailes" with whom he had worked. I knew then no good was to come from Fox News. It was to be a propaganda service. Propagandists lie and have no respect for truth. 
    Now the world knows that Hannity, Carlson, Ingram, Piro and the other clowns are also phonies and liars. They are also anti American. Quoting from another blow hard "enemies of the people. Fake news!"


        Looks as if these boys are practicing their high and dry stances.

        **The line was written by English poet Arthur Hugh Clough who was also an assistant to Florence Nightingale.

        Stay safe. See you down the trail.

  1. I guess I’m at the stage of life where the Only truth is in Gods word. I try not to listen to any of DC premadonnas.

  3. Think about this, Taylor's Uncle was an accountant in San Francisco, he made $420 a month in 1949, he owned a house in the city and drove a new Packard convertible. Now think about our children and grandchildren, It's god damn frightening.
