1) Local News


Kings Lose!


Election was Tuesday

           Prince and Keenan Ivory Wayan are black men who just turned 54.

           Ignorance IS bliss, but it also leads to hard work.

          LA is not yet a theater town. Damn!

          Pirates gaining ground in German politics.

          Mexican politics.

          Canadian politics.

          Fontana Steel is hiring! But you're gonna need your math chops!

          San Onofre Nuclear Power Plant News


2) Other News 
Death, poverty, war, rumors of wars, chaos, misery...

3) Local Loco.
Give your community a hug and a kiss. If we make our homes places of 
peace, love and creation, all of this political bullshit will be much more manageable, 
really. You can start with something as simple as opening your blinds. And if your 
neighbors are all assholes, congratulations! They probably feel the same thing. That is 
a great place to start.

4) No mas muertes, please!

Military suicides. They are our guys and our girls. They are products of an over- militarized culture, "fresh" from our victory in the largest war in the history of the planet. Lots
of people still walking around and voting and waving flags and that is all good. I am
NOT anti-military. Far from it. What I am is anti-death.

And our soldiers are getting out of West Asia, coming home and killing themselves
EVERY FREAKING DAY.

It is too late for you. Now you can't say you didn't know. So if you live, work, play, walk, run, bike, drive, vote, buy, sell, or ANYTHING in this country, you and I have a great debt to
pay to the soldiers, past and present. I don't know what to do. Help me out. My first
idea is just to walk into the VA in WLA and shake some hands and pass around some
cards. Do some free tutoring. Maybe it can help us both. I sure could use the work.



Questions can be placed here or emailed to HardWorkisFun@gmail.com.

We didn't pay anyone to play the opening music from Cake (Wheels off of Pressure Chief). Or the close tune, either, for that matter (Mr. Scruff playing Hot Tuna, I think). Our bad. Of course, nobody paid us either, so...?

Election Tuesday


Follow up on Frowns on Frisbees (HWH w DD 2/14/12)
Chicken Little of the Week: Now you get busted for throwing a frisbee at the beach.                    Why do we tolerate this behavior from our public officials? Do you REALLY want to know?

           Hammer Museum

           You definitely can buy stock in PEMCO, but that is not the Nationalized Mexican
           Petroleum Company, PEMEX, which you can not yet purchase shares in. However
           Brazil's nationalized petroleum industry has benefited from going public as well as
           from Earth-saving and Earth-leading production of ethanol and pollution-reducing
           forms of gasoline. Read more here.

Sabado Gigante Don't Mean Shit!

That's all you get this week. Too many graduations, commencements, arguments, matriculations, and celebrations. Maybe we'll double up next week. Dunno.  Okay, I did find an interesting essay: Cunt.

Read it quick and get back to work.

3) Read your local paper. Join a local group. Just do it. And tell your friends and neighbors I thought of it first.

4)  


Air Quality really is better today.




 Current Events for the Bay Area (I read from some foodie quiz cards).

Yes it is true (according to Foodie Fight : a trivia game for serious food lovers) that american kitchens have tripled in size since 1950, from 80 square feet to 225. And yes, I will answer the MATH QUESTION OF THE WEEK aka what is the square root of 225? See below

5) Lit Minit : Excerpt from DoI, T. Jefferson, 1776.

Thanks for listening and reading. Follow these here links if you want to follow up on anything you read or hear here, hear?



"Declaration of Independence," by Thomas Jefferson was read with permission and full authority because it is ours and we can read it, quote it, cite it, use it, and the more the better, if you ask me. Also used, but without permission, the intro music is "Wheels," by CAKE off of their album "Pressure Chief."

Notes and links from BTR show "Current Events" 11/11/11 HWH w DD


MATH QUESTION OF THE WEEK  answer : the square root of 225 is 15 


15 x 15 = 225, or a kitchen today averages out to be a room 15 wide and 15 feet deep, too. Use to be less than nine. Good work Mathmagicians!
