tuesday afternoon...

feeling a little lazy today as i wait for my yellow split peas to soak. Making a Dal today, there many different Dals and this one will also be unique. i will use an amalgam of recipes to form my own—that's my M.O. whenever i do stews or chilis or soups. i think i'll add some beet shavings in and instead of red chile i'll use some green. No masala or asafoetida, but i'll use some tandori for zing...

but as i say things are lazy in the constellation, taking it light after a return to the pool early yesterday morning and another trip there tomorrow. Lazy in getting things done, i really should get over to the laundromat and get things done there, the place is closed tomorrow but instead of all that i sit in front of my computer checking some facebook and headlines and not even thinking of posting something...

but i couldn't help wondering. What would it will be like in 100 years when the only people who can afford health insurance in this country will be the richest, let's call them the 1%...

as our jobs and skills disappear more and more over the next 100 years due to corporate shuffling and deterioration of education of this country, will there be anyone left to consume the products and services of the 1%...

will there be people to watch there shows, drink their soft drink, and wear their shoes. Will people even be able to walk. Will they be so overweight from the lack of dietitians who lost there jobs because the health care industry found no need to keep them on the payroll, i mean; they were talking bad about McDonalds, they had to go...

people waddling around aimlessly—barefoot, talking nonsense, blind from the radiation of the television and deaf from the bullshit stuck in their ears. How will the 1% deal with us then. What are they going to do then?...

what are we going to do now?...

i'm going to do my laundry and make dal...
