Nobody’s Fool: Mark Twain
Nobody’s Fool
After the Civil War and up until WWI, American went into a great ‘transformation.’ The cities exploded with factories, and new technologies, and the idealistic American dream of the lone rugged individual of the founders…were being uprooted. Big politics and big business came crashing in on the new dispensations: Tammany Hall, and the stock manipulators brought about “Black Friday” in 1869. Labor strikes came in 1873, and 1876. In 1886, there were more labor strikes in Chicago.
We went from an agrarian society to an industrial one. Then we got the oil and steel tycoons, and the start of the big humongous multinationals conglomerates we have today.
And one guy, had this to say:
“The eight years in America from 1860 to 1868 uprooted institutions that were centuries old, changed the politics of a people, transformed the social life of half the country, and wrought so profoundly upon the entire national character that the influence cannot be measured.” –Mark Twain
Nobody suggests that if you change those dates to 1992-2012, that statement would very much fit what we are seeing in America today.
We have gone from an agrarian society to a “service” one. (By design) 
America is more fascistic, the people more divided and diverse, our freedoms vanishing, and almost all of our institutions: the family, the churches, our government, and our schools, have been changed so profoundly upon the entire national character…that the influence cannot be measured.
Obama, and many of the globalists, want to change the national character. No more melting pot. No more America.
No need to offend others. 
What would Mark Twain have to say about Obama?
“When angry, count four: when very angry, swear.”
They have “banned” Twain’s masterpiece Huckleberry Finn from our kids…but, it was one of the most profound books against slavery ever written, which brings me to another Mark Twain quote:
“All you need in life is ignorance and confidence, then success is assured.”
So THAT’s how he became President.
Thanks Mr. Twain. 
Nobody Wonders About Global Clusters
Nobody Wonders
Earth is such a itty bitty tiny, not even a speck of a bother, in the vast universe, and so Nobody Wonders just exactly what Globular Clusters are…this is the Sombrero Galaxy and it’s surrounded by 136 clusters. (photo by Rolf Wahl). Whenever things here on Earth get too wacked out, I simply go and stare at “globular galaxy” pictures and everything comes into perspective….some people do Yoga. I…stare at Galaxies.
Sort of looks like a floating jelly fish coming up to the surface….beautiful.
About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
