You can really see his leg muscles in action.
It's amazing all the different and wonderful creatures that Hashem has created.
Thank you G-d for this amazing world you have created for us. ;-)

Just One Punch
It reminds of a childhood friend who was a fighter type.
Whenever somebody got on his nerves, he would bellow out in his machismo way:
I kill your whole family with one punch!
Honestly, it wasn't all that scary a threat even as it echoed.
But it was comical when everyone else would mimic the saying at the slightest annoyance.
Kids are people too, wakadoo wakadoo! ;-)

C Stands For Couch
C stands for Couch.
And a big red one one it is.
Some blue chairs on the periphery.
And a little dot coffee table in the center.
The fake greenery on the wall is kludgy, but we know what they were trying to say.
Overall, a nice welcoming space. ;-)

Defunding The Police Is STUPID!
This time to defund or dismantle the police!
While I am completely against corruption, racism, and police brutality, it is a BIG and STUPID mistake to hyper-generalize from some bad actors to the overwhelming number of good people that serve in law enforcement, who put their lives on the line to protect us everyday.
As with the health workers that protect us from Coronavirus and other horrible illnesses, so too with our police, we should be grateful for their protection and that they ensure some semblance of law and order and security in our society!
Yes the bad apples should be weeded out and punished, absolutely!
Also, after the latest incident with George Floyd, certainly reform is needed in terms of training and additional protections for the public.
But going alt-left crazy with proposals to defund and disband the police is completely over-the-top, irresponsible and destructive.
Hopefully, all the "normal" people out there will see the progressive folly for what it is and support the police in doing their critical mission, while also holding them accountable to do it with the integrity that they must. ;-)

I'm Still Alive!
600 Holocaust Survivors and their descendants sing "Chai" (Life) by Ofra Haza.
Hope is not yet lost.
I live. I live. I live.
I cried my eyes out watching this.
The Jewish people not only survived the Holocaust as most of the world sat by and watched the genocide of six million men, women, and children with a soulless indifference, but G-d has kept his promise and restored the Jewish people and returned them to the Holy Land and made it flourish again!
(Thank you to my sister, Roz, for sharing this with me)

Prickly Like The People
Say or do something that rubs them the wrong way and you got a sharp aching thorn in your side.
Hence the saying about handling them with "kid gloves" made from fine soft kid leather.
Handle tactfully and with special consideration or else get stung badly and suffer the pain and consequences. ;-)

Still Fighting For Our Rights
I can not believe I still have to protest this crap!!
Just went you thought humanity (at least Western civilization) had mostly evolved past all the discrimination, biases, bigotry, prejudice, and racisms.
We arrive in time only to find out that HATE is still brewing in our societies and people's evil hearts.
What a shame--that we misinterpret what divides us as taking precedence over what unites us!
What a pity--that we misjudge people by the color of their skin, their race, their religion, etc. instead of by the worthiness of their deeds.
What a disgrace--that we mistreat our fellow man simply because they are different from us and in the most superficial of ways.
With all our scientific advances and technological progress, we are still in stone ages of the evolution of our humanity. ;-)

You've Got To Do It

Our Cities Are Burning
Discipline equals freedom.
The opposite is true too:
From the violent riots across the country the last week, even a modicum of discipline has gone out the window, and with that comes a curtailment of freedom through deployment of the National Guard, Military, and imposition of curfews and more.
There was a time that peaceful protests led by leaders with integrity held sway...but now it's anarchy out there!
Today, the cities are burning, the stores are being looted, people are afraid, and our republic is being torn asunder by racism and filthy election politics. ;-)

Freedom USA!
Vroom Vroom!
Super fun and a perhaps little more stability for your butt.
If the air is clear and the road empty, you can let the wind blow through your hair and the whole world go by.
F*** everything!
Life was made for living. ;-)

A Neck Is Not Something To Step On
Justice for George Floyd!
Murder is murder.
While I greatly respect and admire our law enforcement for the difficult jobs that they have, police brutality and racism is not something that can be tolerated.
Our law enforcement is better than that!
Hold the responsible officers accountable, but also bring peace and civility back to our cities and streets. ;-)

Boots Of Many Colors
Similar to Joseph and The Technicolor Dreamcoat, these boots come in a virtual rainbow of colors.
Honestly, not sure who would actually wear something like these.
I think them gaudy except as a sweeping fashion statement by someone fairly spectacular who could carry it off.
Perhaps another show featuring the dancing Rockettes, doing the long row of eye-high kicks could be quite a sight in a managerie of these colorful boots rising and falling.
Kick 1-2-3. Higher and higher. Red, yellow, and blue. ;-)

The Nail That Stands Out
It gets hammered down!
Deviation from the norm or the groupthink is met with a resounding klop on the head.
You conform or you face the guillotine.
Way too dystopian.
Freedom, individuality, diversity, self-expression—these are the engines of innovation and growth.
If every nail gets hammered down, you have a society that implodes with inbreeders and Stone Age stale ideas.
Tradition is one thing, a closed mind is something that is an extinction level event. ;-)
