Social Commentary and Poetry on things that matter. Tuesday, December 30, 2008. History of Christmas Candy Canes. For the first time this year I heard of the so called meaning of the candy canes associated by Christmas. I can’t help but think the Catholics went a little overboard here – mixing up Easter messages and Christmas – intertwining the birth and death in one tiny sweet. In the mid 1800's, the candy cane arrived in the U.S. when a German-Swedish immigrant in Wooster,Ohio , decorated his s...So ju...

They seem to come round like a rash – you know the type the "please help us find our missing child.". They tug at your heart strings – so you – being busy – forward it on to everyone in your mail box, thinking you have done a good dead. Sadly, all you have done is forward on a hoax and blocked up the internet for a nanosecond. For more info on Dan see here. Seeing her little fac...

Neshamah Comments: October 2008

Social Commentary and Poetry on things that matter. Sunday, October 26, 2008. Its crap that a dead person looks like they are sleeping. There simply is no spark, no essence, they truly are a husk – nothing left but the outside. Its horrible looking at the face of a loved one and knowing that they just aren’t there – its like looking at a bad portrait painted quickly and without adding the details. During the service the two women bothered me – I knew them somehow ( obviously they were relatives but...

Social Commentary and Poetry on things that matter. Wednesday, August 27, 2008. Cartwheeling into School yard Dangers. Yesterdays news broke with an astounding discovery that a North Queensland School has banned children doing cartwheels. For reports on this go to :. At first I thought it may be a knee jerk reaction to a playground tragedy that may have occurred –but none such existed. Will banning this stop kids doing stupid things? What sort of injury risk is really there? The department is citing the ...

Social Commentary and Poetry on things that matter. Sunday, August 2, 2009. Cancer. a little story. Sometimes its really hard to explain cancer to people - and its not only children who need it spelled out in simple terms. This is an excerpt from Richard Wildmans wonderful radio segment "The Adventures of Chemoman". I've put the link to it at the bottom. Well, you see, there are certain things that make an evil, stinking cancer cell different from an innocent, hard working, normal cell. The scene. Jo...

Social Commentary and Poetry on things that matter. Monday, September 8, 2008. Dads Dealing with Daughters. In light of the fact that Fathers Day has just happened in Australia, I’d like to comment about the role that Dads have in the lives of their daughters. How a father deals with his daughter early in life is going to be a strong indicator of her latter success and how she relates to men during her development. This is pretty heavy stuff – very significant – especially in our society of e...Detachmen...

Social Commentary and Poetry on things that matter. Tuesday, May 11, 2010. Socialism - A simple explaination. I'm not sure if this actually happened - but it demonstrates a point. though perhaps its too simple? An economics professor at a local college made the statement that he had never failed a single student before but had once failed an entire class. That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. No one was happy. All failed, ...

Social Commentary and Poetry on things that matter. Thursday, July 31, 2008. The pursuit of perfection. If you’ve not seen this transformation, then I suggest check this out ( its on utube) and forward it to everyone! Adobe photoshop from fat woman to thin woman. This brought up a lot of “stuff’ for me. Firstly I thought wow – isn’t it amazing what photoshop can do, the second how many hits this has gotten ( nearly 5 thousand). And the lack of comments made – only 3! I went past a cosmetics stand the oth...
