Nutwood Junction: Something like a phenomenon
http://nutwoodjunction.blogspot.com/2015/08/something-like-phenomenon.html
Monday, August 10, 2015. Something like a phenomenon. Can someone please explain the reason for this strange behavior? Duran Duran “Skin Trade”. I know I’m not the only one who is completely and utterly perplexed by the appeal of Donald Trump to a portion of our electorate. Has a segment of our population lost its collective mind? 8221; written in 1964, but eerily accurate in today’s atmosphere of toxic politics and this almost inexplicable support for Trump. Given Trump’s lack of policy specifics,...

Saturday, August 8, 2015. I have been, and always shall be, your friend". This is a crummy way to bring my blog out of semi-retirement, but it’s something I need to write. Over a month ago, I was contacted on Facebook by a mutual friend of mine and Sheria Reid’s. I met him through Sheria, and he was reaching out to several of us to let us know that Sheria had died, apparently of a massive heart attack. 8221; “Can Obama really issue such an order? We also shared a mutual love of science fiction, especiall...

Saturday, February 21, 2015. In an effort to stem the tide of what seems to be an epidemic of accidental shootings at the hands of children, some cities are looking at a novel solution: asking children to turn in their firearms. The incentive? Receiving a good grade. Definitely an A. We’re thinking of factoring in the difficulty of the class, too. If you want an A in Calculus, you’re going to have to cough up the big ones. It’s a win-win situation. Fewer guns in the hand...He went on to say that they are...

Tuesday, November 18, 2014. Be all you can be. I’ve been seeing this meme make the rounds that says “When a woman is loved correctly, she becomes ten times the woman she was before.”. I’d just like to say that that is the biggest pile of steaming horseshit I’ve seen for some time. Obviously, the people posting this are women. What guy would post that? Who still thinks this way? Is this a good time to wish my husband a happy anniversary? I’m not sure.but happy anniversary, anyway, honey! A lot of good boo...

Friday, August 14, 2015. Several years ago, Ken and I went to our first Cirque du Soleil show. It was in Chicago, and it was called. The company Ken worked for at the time was a sponsor of the North American Cirque shows, so we got VIP tickets for it! It was so much fun. We were in a tent, there were performers meandering through the crowd, there were hors d’ouevres, and champagne! We’ve seen several Cirque shows since then, all of them in Las Vegas:. The water one),. The samurai one),. This is going to ...

Friday, November 7, 2014. Beth’s Music Moment: The Man Who Stole A Leopard. It’s a single song edition of the Music Moment! 8220;The Man Who Stole A Leopard” is a song by Duran Duran, from their 2011 album “ All You Need Is Now. 8221; When I got this album and was looking at the track listing, I was intrigued by the title. “Hmm,” I wondered. “What is this about? Do you know where we are? I'm longing for the dark of our nocturnal life. It begins and ends with you. Don't spill my secret. Today a man was ta...

Monday, September 1, 2014. It’s the end, the end of the summer days. Well, hello, you little maniacs! Did you miss me? I’m alive and kicking, but decided to take the summer off. No apologies this time for not updating sooner, because I made the decision to take a break and I don’t feel even a little bit bad about it! Okay, maybe 5% bad. But that is within the margin of error.). On their Facebook page! Movies; we went to several local events like Art Beat and seeing my friend Jim’s band High Gravity.

Nutwood Junction: Beth’s Books: Boom, Bust, Exodus
http://nutwoodjunction.blogspot.com/2015/03/beths-books-boom-bust-exodus.html
Sunday, March 8, 2015. Beth’s Books: Boom, Bust, Exodus. Subtitled The Rust Belt, The Maquilas, and a Tale of Two Cities. I came across a description of this book somewhere and thought it sounded very interesting. It made me think of my hometown, South Bend, Indiana, and our loss of the main employer in the area, Studebaker, over fifty years ago. We have gone from a post-WWII boom, one in which corporations shared the profits with the people who manufactured their goods, to an atmosphere of antagonism an...
