To Wine, or Not to Wine
Nobody Cares
Please. Tell me somebody else besides me does this:
I was watching some program on the HGTV channel, and it was about this married couple who was buying an apartment in New York. He looked…Arab, and she was like a blond model. Anyway…YOUNG…too young to be forking out $10 million for an apartment. And the agent showed them three places, all up in that price range. One place alone…had a hallway that was as long as a football field, and about 15 bedrooms… They fell in love. The kitchen was half the size of my house. 
Now, the whole time I am thinking: 1st…How in the world did these two twenty- year- olds get so much money?: and 2nd…Why is it that rich people seem so…very ordinary? When the agent said it would be ready in three months, the girl sighed and pretty much demanded that she wanted to move in sooner, because…”I’m so tired of all the toys.” she said.
Oh. Gee. Must be tough to want to move because you’re tired of your kids TOYS getting in the way. That’s a reason to buy a $10.9 million dollar New York penthous apartment if ever there was one.
So, I take it this woman had plan to put her kids (who were all of two to three) down at the other end of that football length hall, and it would be as if they were in another state, and she was imagining all her time being spent waaaaaaaaaaaaay off in the other side of the gigantic apartment ….where toys would not be a problem.
When a woman from the poorer class has a “toy” problem, she makes the kids either pick them up, or she throws them in the basement, near the Christmas tree. Really, how hard can this be? Rich people just buy a bigger house.
There are no words that I can explain for me to understand the complete lack of “IQ” for people that have so much money. But then…all you have to do is look at Michael Moore.
Wait…..forget I said that. I should NOT have said that…I might have nightmares.
Which brings me to this: Penfolds of Australia had made the most expensive bottle of wine in the world, or so they claim. The wine has no corks or screw tops, so for $168,000, Penfold will send a man to your house to open it for you with a silver tool. 
I’m not all convinced that wine drank from a $168,000 bottle is all that much different that one from an old jelly jar.
Poor people all over the world have been drinking cheap wine and not tripping over toys for hundreds of years. They also drink wine, and do trip over toys, but NEVER do they feel they have to move.
And so now…I think it’s time for somebody on TV to invent a new TV program: House Swap. Let some poor people go live in a mansion, and let the rich people live in the poor man’s house. And then, spread some toys around the floor, and make the rich people drink cheap wine, and poor people drink expensive wine, and see which couple loses it first.
Somebody tell HGTV. I’m tired of being tortured. 
To Honor This Infamous Day in Tax History….
Nobody Remembers
To honor this infamous day in the history of the biggest tax increase in a nation’s history, (Obamacare upheld by the Supreme Court) I give you…
The perfect song…with a few added words by George Harrison.
Go ahead…sing along.
Also, remember, these two men George Harrison and Eric Clapton married the SAME woman, and here they were still playing guitar like old friends, after they both remarried.
Makes you wonder doesn’t it?
Nobody’s Fool: Justice Roberts
Nobody’s Fool
Nobody (me) was not very surprised today when the conservative top Supreme Court Judge, John Roberts, put on the court by George W. Bush, basically sided with a socialist President, went against all sanity and said that Obamacare not only was constitutional, but Congress could just gather all that money to pay for it, as a tax.
Why was I not surprised?
Those two unconstitutional things, didn’t hit too many people’s lives: THIS one does. 
This is no surprise. I had a sinking feeling in my gut when Justice Roberts said that Justice Kagen didn’t have to excuse herself from this transformative decision. Obviously, by law, she was required to do so. But he waved his hand and said, “Oh we’ll be fine.” That’s because he already knew what he was going to do.
So, why does he get the Nobody’s Fool award today? Everyone is upset— beyond themselves with horror at the ruling no one thought was possible. (Except the dingbats of course) So why? According to all he is a traitor of freedom, justice, and the country.
Because— the judge just took a bullet for the “cause.” The cause being, the White House. I imagine it was for the Bush’s.
Ask yourself: Who benefits from this? What chess pieces were in play in this war for the control of power?
Who benefits? Mitt Romney.
Let’s just say that I believe Roberts took one for the big Rhinos. The globalists. The established Rockefeller/Bush dynasty that we have all witnessed in action. One by one, the people’s choice for a government ruled by the people was knocked off in the primaries. Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, Herman Cain, and Michelle Bachmann were all closer to the people. Not Mitt. He was the last pick of them all…and then viola…the nomination just fell right into his lap.
The big insurance companies will benefit from this, and we are all pretty much screwed.
Did you notice Obama’s speech was pretty lame? I honestly think he wasn’t expecting this. Everyone knew that Obamacare was clearly unconstitutional. The Rhino’s have just moved their chess piece
CHECKMATE, Mr. Obama. Your move. This wasn’t a victory for Obama, on the contrary, it’s a Trojan horse full of political lead.
Mitt Romney needs the tea party, who are still not sure of him. Watch for him to cater to that group, with lots of talk about the “founders.” The race is close. If this had been overtruned, Mitt, who is not the liar or the speaker that Obama is, might have left one too many people staying home.
The Rhinos want the White House–it was a necessary move.
Would Roberts do such a thing for the ‘elites’ ?
He just did.
But, here’ s the question: Will Mitt do as he promised..repeal ObamaCare the day he gets in office?
Does he have that power? Will it stay regardless? Will other fascist chess pieces be moved to saddle America with high taxes forever with NIETHER party getting the blame? Both parties working for the people who pay them?
Is this all smoke and mirrors?
Do any of us trust our government anymore? I sure don’t.
Is it already too late? Nope. Never.
Justice John Roberts gets the Nobody’s Fool award for the week. He just gave Mitt the White House, unless Obama plays another card….
We shall see, what happens then.
Musings of A Privileged White Nobody
Nobody Wins
The University of Minnesota has come out with a commercial to bash the white man and woman: White people are privileged, this commercial shouts out. They get all the jobs, all the money, all the cool cars, etc..
Funny…where have I heard this before? 
Yesterday I got into a conversation with an 83- year- old woman named Ruth, who told me that she was in Germany when she was 16, when Berlin was being bombed. She told me of the near misses, how the building where she lived was destroyed just minutes after her family had been running out of their apartment. She told me how the Americans made the German people (including her) go along the road and pick up and bury the Jews who had died on their walks out of the concentration camps. She remembered most of all the numbers on their arms. She remembered the way the Russians raped the girls–two men would hold the girls standing up..one on each arm, while the third one raped them. She didn’t say she was raped, but she didn’t have to.
I asked her if any Americans did that, and she shook her head…yes.
“War is war.” she said.
She walked to Yugoslavia and it was there that she was imprisoned in a Russian prison camp which she escaped by digging her way out.
Later, she meet an American GI, got married and moved to Kentucky, where she made fun of her sister in-law who had an outhouse. And while her story was almost surreal to someone like me, when we talked about the Jews, she said very coldly—-
“Well, the Jews had all the money, just like they do now.” 
You could tell, that she still thought it unfair that one set of people had more than others. The old anger was still there. She had been raised when Hitler was in power. No doubt the old school lessons were still ingrained.
When I mentioned that God must have been looking over her shoulders when her family escaped the bombs, she didn’t buy it. No god would let all those people die she said.
Ruth had been through more in her lifetime than any black on any corner on any street in America. As bad as the blacks complain–the ones living now in America, never suffered as their ancestors did. Even the poorest blacks here have big screens TVs, cell phones, and food stamps. And the only history they are taught to care about is their own. 
Now we have a President, who uses the anger of one set of people to get jealous of another set of people who have been more successful. He tells them they are rich. He doesn’t have to mention that they are white does he?
As you can see from this video…many of the white people are getting tired of being ‘hated’ for just being white. White is…the new Jew in Obama’s world, a world where the white people are cowards, bullies, racists, and so unworthy of his attention that he isn’t even going after their vote.
Here in North County St. Louis, for the first time in history, the army is doing tank training on the streets. Why? Because they are expecting the blacks to riot if Obama loses the elections. Obama will have to cause chaos to stay in power.
What else is a privileged white person suppose to think?
Obama could have been like Martin Luther King: a black man who united people…instead he choose Hitler as his model. Marx as his idol. Wright as his mentor.
No wonder Oprah moved to California. And as a white American, I can tell you one thing…being white is not a privilege…being an American IS. And the sooner more blacks figure that out, the better off we will all be.

This, explains it all.
Thank You Michael Reagan….
Nobody Knows
I’ve always admired Michael Reagan. You can’t help but like him when you read his books. Michael is a son that Ronald Reagan I’m sure was immensely proud of. Here he describes the horrible event that happened to him as a boy…when a man, took his innocence away as a child.
Nobody Knows, but Nobody can guess, that this stuff happens a lot more than people think. In my family alone, we’ve had two incidents that left unbearable scars on the victims. Kids don’t talk, but they are angry, and depressed, and it can color their whole life.
Most every American, when they heard the story of the man in Texas who killed the man who was molesting his little girl said…they would react the very same way.
The trouble is, most child molesters are trusted members of the community as we see time and again. They are fantastic liars. Nobody Thinks that Michael Jackson was a child abuser..they all sound the same, when they deny whatever the kids say happened. The recent trial of Jerry Sandusky was a big wake-up call as to how one man can molest children forever without ever being stopped. His adopted son said, “I really wanted to die.” after all the touching and rubbing. Matt was one of his six adopted children. I don’t think there was a sane person in the country who was not happy about his sentence.
“I LOVE the children! They love me! I never hurt them! ” etc, etc… They “Love” the children, and they do…but when they rape them, they should be locked up. Really…look at that guy. You would never suspect him of such a thing.
Thank goodness Michael finally told his parents, and for him to reveal this to the world is incredibly brave. The more people who come forward about it, the more we can make this kind of thing, what it really is: an incredible horrific crime. They should all be locked up…for good…and in my Nobody Opinion: forever.
Nobody Flashes:Rich Cars Vs Poor Cars
Nobody Flashes
No matter what you hear about money…there are more people in the world who have an awful lot of it! And what do they do with their millions? Why buy expensive cars, of course!
Nobody compares what Ferrari is going to do to get into the Guinness Book of Records: They plan to gather the most Ferrari’s in one place, in the UK on September 15th. Their goal is to get 1,000, and so far they have 600 lined up. What does the common man do to get into Guinness? He makes his couch into a go-cart!
And if you think that the rich can’t think of anything to spend their money on…THINK AGAIN! There is the gold wrapped Mercedes-Benz in Dubai, and the gold wrapped Lamborghini Aventador LP700 in Miami! And yes, that’s REAL gold….you know, the gazillion dollars an ounce kind…but…if you don’t have the money for these beauties, remember, there’s always your own ingenuity.
Nobody’s Perfect: Jimmy Carter VS Elmo
Nobody’s Perfect
This week we have two very important world figures trying to take the spotlight with their grievances, Jimmy Carter and Elmo. I was going to go for Cher this week, because she keeps ranting that the Tea Party people are all racist… but…why? Elmo at this point is much more interesting. 
Let’s start with that pontificating putterer, x-President Jimmy Carter, who no doubt is still wondering if we have aliens on the planet, because he is looking for the Carter family tree. I’m convinced he could be of alien descent because I can’t think of any recent x President that dislikes America as much as he does.
Notice I said X American President.
Carter is STILL knocking America…and that’s because America threw him out of office because he put on his sweater one day in the Oval Office, looked the American people straight in the eye, and told America to turn down their thermostats and get out our ugliest sweaters, because we were basically all energy hogs and it was our fault (not his) that we had to wait in long lines to get gas.
It didn’t go over too well.
Once Ronald Reagan came to save the day, we couldn’t WAIT for Jimmy to go back to his peanut farm. But did he? Nooooooo, he had to continue to torture us with all his opinions…like how the election of Hugo Chavez was a good one. Once Jimmy Carter agreed to do an interview in Playboy, Nobody thought that if there were any redeeming qualities Jimmy might have had…class was not one of them. He has been one of the noisiest and litigious pathological anti American President ever to grace the Oval Office, but..yesterday–he just might have gone too far.
He is now attacking Obama…Lions and Tiger and Bears…OH MY!
Jimmy Carter, America’s 39 the president, denounced the Obama administration for “clearly violating” 10 of the 30 articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, writing in a New York Times op-ed on Monday that the “United States is abandoning its role as the global champion of human rights. In addition to the drone strikes, Carter criticized the current president for keeping the Guantanamo Bay detention center open, where prisoners “have been tortured by water boarding more than 100 times or intimidated with semiautomatic weapons, power drills or threats to sexually assault their mothers.”
Notice the words “intimidated.”
Actually, if a Muslim really believed that some American soldier was really going to sexually assault their mother, then he deserved to be water boarded for stupidity alone.
And even though Jimmy has protected Muslims all over the world, this time he has maybe stepped over the…x –tow the Party democratic line.
And then there’s Elmo. Evidently Elmo is claiming that the Jews are ruining the world, (see video) something Mel Gibson once said to a cop. So many kids were around while Elmo was losing his mind trying to tell people that the Jews were taking over, a guy in another stupid costume had to get him to shut up.
Who made the biggest blooper this week? 
How do you compare? I can’t. Both of them are stupid.
And speaking of stupid—Kim Kardashion had this to say about herself and the Virgin Mary:
“I think if I’m 40 and I don’t have any kids and I’m not married, I would have a baby artificially inseminated, I would feel like Mary — like Jesus is my baby. When I did want to have sex the first time, I was almost 15,” she told Winfrey — just like the Virgin Mary said in the Gospel of Matthew.
She told this to Oprah. Word has not come in if she was on drugs, or if the Catholic Church might be considering working with Kim to redo the Virgin Mary statues with Kim Kardashion statues ..or not. Somehow Kim completely missed the point that you have to be a VIRGIN to be Mary.
I’m beginning to think I should have compared Cher to Kim this week: The Botox Devil and the Virgin Mary.
Still somewhere I just know, that Jimmy Carter has lusted for them both.
Therefore, Elmo wins by default. Congratulations Elmo! Jimmy Carter and Egypt await you.
Nobody Flashes: Happiness in a Dancing AC/DC Cockatoo

Nobody is as lucky as me. Upon hearing about the loss of my little parakeet Mango, a dear friend sent me this to cheer me up.
At least watch some of this if you can…this bird is incredible!

JFK Advises Obama….From Profiles in Courage
Nobody’s Notes
Today is the day patriotic Americans have been waiting for, and it seems that it will be just one man who will decide if Obamacare is enacted— Justice Kennedy. If the Supreme Court lets Obamacare stand, then obviously we have become Russia, or Italy, or pick your favorite despotic government, because this Nobody Knows that Obamacare is not constitutional.
But who’s obeying the Constitution anymore? Here we see our Secretary of State, Comrade Clinton, pretty much making fun of the Constitution as she puts on a Mask and spits out the serious and important words at a swearing-in ceremony–basically making fun of it all. Nobody Remembers when swearing-in ceremonies used to be taken seriously, and discussions of purple pantsuits were left in the ladies washroom.
On a lighter note, I’ve never seen Hillary look better.
Nobody also remembers that there would be a tropical hurricane in the Sahara before an American President would call up a newly elected Muslim Brotherhood President of Egypt, as his army of brotherhood men are shouting Allah Akbar outside in celebration, thereby gaining control of a military funded by…the same American President, and that President ccongratulates him. 
Nobody Knows how a President can ignore the obvious fact that no matter how much you tell the new Muslim Brotherhood President of Egypt you would like him to be a moderate–he’s not going to do it.
Obama cares deeply about “women’s rights” in the U.S., but the women in Egypt can go to Allah in a handbasket, and sometimes that basket will contain their own bloody, chopped off hands if they are not good. Obama probably plans to call up the new Muslim Brotherhood President and say, “I’ll send you more money if you keep the stoning down..I mean..uh…I’m trying to win a reelection here.” 
Women in Egypt will now go back even further into slavery. Nobody Wonders how that poor pregnant women who did NOT vote for the Muslim brotherhood, the one whose husband beat her to death because she didn’t–How did HE know how she voted? What? Do the husbands get to see how the women vote? How’s that work? Or–did she tell him?
In an interview in AARP, Obama said:
“I do want to make sure that when Malia and Sasha are entering their 50’s we still have the security of Social Security. Of Medicare.” (Obviously President’s children get to take Social Security at the age of 50. The rest of us will get it at 122.)
Nobody Wonders where Obama learned to do math: He has added millions of illegals, and their families, onto the Medicare rolls, and now we find out that it seems our Medicare dollars have been going to, among various places..CUBA! Three Congressmen are spilling the beans on that:
“Clearly, the program vulnerabilities that facilitate billions of dollars to be stolen from the Medicare program each year also allow for some of that money to be funneled to foreign countries,” the three congressmen said. “Thus far, it does not appear that CMS has addressed the concept of nominee owners, false storefronts, and shell companies in any of its enrollment regulations or its Provider Screening statement of work,” they said.
Earlier this week, federal officials in Miami charged Oscar Sanchez in connection with a criminal operation that resulted in an estimated $31 million going to Cuban banks.“If confirmed, this indicates that Medicare program dollars are not only funding international criminal syndicates, but may be helping prop up the Castro government,” the congressmen said.
Oh gee…what does it matter? We are supporting Castro and Raul, and who knows who else with Medicare fraud? Is this a coincidence? 
If you don’t think so, then go ahead, you’ll find lots of hundred-dollar bills in your nearest drain sewer, along with an air plane ticket to Cuba where you will get the best medical attention in the world. Go ahead…get a heart operation while you’ll there, tell me how that goes.
The upcoming election doesn’t look so good for Obama, but, Nobody Wins if we think he is going down without a fight. In the history of the world, dictators have been known to do some pretty draconian things. Cruel and intentional is the usual modus operandi. 
.As JFK once said in Profiles in Courage
“There is little that is more important for an American citizen to know than the history and tradition of his country. Without such knowledge, he stands uncertain and defenseless before the world, knowing neither where he has come from nor where he is going. With such knowledge, he is no longer alone but draws a strength far greater than his own from the cumulative experience of the past and a cumulative vision of the future.”
Amygdala’s and Mango
Nobody Knows—
What is it about birds and why do I love them so much? They eat, they fly around, they chatter, they sing….they sleep. They stretch their wings when you go over to their cage to say hello to you. I don’t know how many times I have reported on this blog about one of my parakeets dying…I told my self I was NOT going to do it again. But, something inside on me wants to report to the rest of the world, that on this vast earth, with millions of people dying…soldiers, parents, children, lovers that– yes, even a somewhat insignificant tiny little bird can bring immense joy to your life, and emptiness when they leave it.
You have no idea.
I’ve had parakeets since I was about nine. I have three now, and I keep my parakeets in my little kitchen. They are the first things I greet in the morning, and when I take off their cover, they sing me hello, and they sing hello to the sunshine that flows from the window right next to the cage. It’s as it to tell me..”Life is good! Life is good! Wake up! You are alive! We are alive!” At least that’s how I interpret it.
A bird sings because it must. I write about it because I must. What are you going to do?
What kind of woman does that make me? I’m not running around with a briefcase off to some lawyer’s meetings. I’m not a doctor who begins each day typing in some computer. No, I start my day with taking care of my ‘buddies” as if they are just as important as an upcoming thesis on nano-technology.
And Mango died tonight.
Mango was an off green yellow, and the bully of the cage. He was the top banana. I was forever going over to the cage when he was chasing some of the other birds around and saying, “Stop that Mango!” But when I caught pneumonia this spring, he seemed to catch it too. Then one day, he woke up lame in one foot. The vet said…Oh don’t worry about it, he’ll get that foot back. But, the foot went dead…and it was amazing to see how this one little guy kept up his daily routing of preening his feathers. He could barely hold onto the stem, he kept losing balance, and falling down, and it was hell for him to climb back up into his perch with only one working foot, but he managed it, for a whole month. To see the courage and determination of such a small task was just as inspiring as seeing a cancer patient going through chemotherapy.
I know, you think there’s no comparison. But you have to look at it from the “bird’s” point of view.
When Mango couldn’t do it any longer. Mango went to the floor. And when the bird goes to the floor, he goes to die.
But he didn’t die. He held on for weeks…until tonight.
Have you ever watched a bird die in your hands? I took Mango outside and showed him the sky, the trees, what he has been missing. Maybe it’s cruel, but really..birds are not meant to be pets to humans now are they? His little eyes got so big…at the sight of a leaf.
I know, you think, come on Joyanna, you’re putting thoughts into that bird’s head that aren’t there. Am I? Does a bird recognize a leaf from just the millions of years of evolution, even if they have never seen one? Was he thinking, “OMG! What have I been missing!” Or…”Is this heaven?” Okay, now I really am putting words in a bird’s mouth, but hey…
Just seconds before he passed, his heart was beating so loud in my palm it was as if both our heartbeats become one–and I tried really hard with this bird to say I was NOT going to cry. But by the last heartbeat, and the shiver of the tiny body, and the flicker of a silver wing, and the closing of his eyes. …I was crying.
In reality, I was maybe scaring him to death.(LOL)
You know, I have been called “too sensitive” all my life. I’m too sensitive to the heartbeat of a bird. I’m too sensitive to the expression in a man’s eyes. I’m too sensitive for whatever. A man finds my ridiculous tears over a silly bird absurd…and the quintessence of…estrogen. And he would be …right. But, that doesn’t mean I’m incapable of rational thought. There IS reason in my madness.
The reason I cling to my animals are because they never disappoint me. They show me daily, and with the poignant innocence that we have all lost, God’s beauty in the face of a crazy political world of insanity. They are the oasis in the storm. Sometimes they are the only sanity one can find. To me, my birds are tiny angels…here to bring me light in darkness. To sing life. To make me SEE life..beyond the toaster, the computer, the car, the concrete.
I once read an article in Psychology Today that said that some people really ARE to sensitive. Their amygdalas were bigger than other people. Like a physical handicap.
And so my amygdala is making me celebrate the life of a bird. The life of a tree. The life of a soldier, the life of a lover, a friend.
To me, each one is equally precious in God’s eyes and the broken wing of my amygdala.
Mango—-We were only waiting for this moment to arrive–fly….
Nobody’s Email: The Candyman…
Nobody Gets Email
Okay…yesterday I had a dying parakeet and a dog with a limp foot. If you happen to be an animal lover you know how that goes.
So, let’s post this really fun video of a guy making fun of the government! And then, let’s all go swimming! This one is so much fun, I might learn it.
Enjoy!

Hubbling the Ultra Deep Neurosis
Nobody Remembers–
The very first “fright” of my life. I was three, and looking up at the stars from the back of my dad’s old Ford. It was not only scary, but it was the start of my true neurotic understanding that I could NEVER be anything in life because I was just a tiny bit of speck of nothing in sight of that massive universe. The vastness of the universe crushed me that night.
I never really got over it. I mean come on…I’m still the NOBODY! Even if Nobody Cares that Nobody Remembers!
BUT…it deosn’t mean that I can’t enjoy sharing this with everyone. If you wondered how we got those cool deep space pictures, this explains it.
Enjoy! Excuse me while I go outside and look up.
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.
