Ruminating

An e-mail from a fellow traveler friend of mine started the gears turning in the olde Rumbear brain. Concepts from college long ago squirreled away into the the part of my brain brain labelled "I don't need this crap"



and a real blast from the past.....Antonio Gramsci.

They say those that do not learn from the past are bound to repeat it. Kinda like hitting your thumb with a hammer. It hurts, but sometimes once is not enuff.

GOOGLE or WIKIPEDIA the items above....I can't summarize here (i.e. get your own education, I'm still paying for mine!)

Okay, maybe that was a little harsh...see Jimmy Buffett was in town last nite and the Rumbear got together with him and 12,000 of his close friends and well, "a good time was had". Suffice it to say, it will be a short day here.

Draw your own parallels on the politics of today and what you read. Throw in a little overlay of the Cloward-Piven Strategy and send us a note.
