      Lyrics by Neil Young:

      Someone and someone
      Were down by the pond
      Looking for something
      To plant in the lawn
      Out in the fields
      They were turning the soil
      I'm sitting here hoping
      This water will boil
      When I look through the window
      And out on the road
      They're bringing me presents
      And saying hello

      Singing words, words
      Between the lines of age
      Words, words
      Between the lines of age

      If I was a junkman
      Selling you cars
      Washing your windows
      And shining your stars
      Thinking your mind was
      My own in a dream
      What would you wonder
      And how would it seem?
      Living in castles
      A bit at a time
      The king started laughing
      And talking in rhyme

      Singing words, words
      Between the lines of age
      Words, words
      Between the lines of age

        Neil Young Played Tonight’s The Night Songs For The First Time In 50 Years At Roxy Anniversary Show (Sept 21, 2023)
        https://www.stereogum.com/2236914/neil- … 68QN7vAJf4

        Harvest was my favorite album especially the song 'Heart of Gold'.

          Hey, Thanks!
          In 1973, when I was 18, Lou Adler opened the Roxy Theatre on the sunset strip in Hollywood. Neil Young and his band played the first three nights. Did I go over my hill to see them?
          No. How come? I was too young for the Hollywood scene, I guess.
          Never knew!

          Continuing:
          "Young had just finished recording Tonight’s The Night, the classic bad-vibes album that wouldn’t come out until 1975. Recordings from those Roxy shows eventually became the basis of the live LP Roxy: Tonight’s the Night Live, which Young released in 2018.

          Over the decades, the Roxy became a legendary West Hollywood fixture. Last night,(9/20/23) Neil Young returned to the scene of the crime, celebrating the venue’s 50th anniversary with a very special set."

          Still didn't hear of the event and missed it ... all these years later.
          Some things never change.
          Humph neutral

      What is your prediction for the future of America?
      ( I think Americans are waking up to the reality we are on the wrong path, So I feel we will soon be set back on the right path.)

      What are the most pressing issues?  (The economy, the fact that we need better education,  and the immigration issue.)

      Where are we doing fine? ( sorry to say today I see none)

      Who are your favorite politicians?  ( I am a Republican, so I hope to see a Republican back in the White House.)

      Worst politicians?  ( I feel the Democratic party has many politicians that I lack respect for.)

      Pet peeve? (  Oh My!  I think it would be that I see many in our society willing to excuse Biden's job performance.)

      In answer to your 6 questions, as an outsider from across the pond:

      1.    What is your prediction for the future of America?
      Like other great nations of the past e.g. British Empire, Roman Empire, America’s world dominance will become less prominent; but America has the potential of remaining a great nation.

      2.    What are the most pressing issues?
      For America, from my perspective, is American political polarisation.

      3.    Where are we doing fine?
      Great American Movies

      4.    Who are your favorite politicians?
      My all-time favourite American politician is Barack Obama

      5.    Worst politicians?
      From my prospective, it’s Donald Trump.

      6.    Pet peeve?
      From my prospective (from across the pond):  The impression that far too many Americans are introspective (inward looking) e.g. as if the whole world revolved around America, that the American way is the only way, and that the rest of the world is insignificant and unimportant?

      1 .  Covidism was our last genocide of mass covered up of poverty, social structure, deaths, liar stats and in every facet of  our live.

      2 Since my conspiracy theories have all come true, yet not clear to the narrative.  Carbonism is the next head of the snake financial institutionalized matrix game.

      3. BRICS and new members countries are moving to a triple threat owning most of the world's energy of oil and gas, uranium and lethium mines. Backed by gold, silver and free trade.

      4 Independent media boom, we are starting to push back on all fronts of corruption, making us stronger from what doesn't kill us.

      5 Genderism education has had four year honeymoon. The 92% of the straight will take it back now. Or we won't exist.

      6 Ron Paul and Vivek, although decent and smart these kind of men or women won't get elected.

      7 Biden, first president most lacking a backbone and a brain, a jellyfish would have been more successful

      8. Mass amount of People not loving their work for most hours of their lives.

        Gendersism education creeps me totally out.

        One day, at a movie theater, I observed a mother and her two children as they were leaving. One was a six or seven year old girl and the other, a three year old boy. The mother had dressed the boy as a girl and he had a doll in his arms. He was walking with his legs wide apart. I wondered in horror if she had had his penis removed. For me to even suspect such a horrid thing is pathetic.
        What a crazy world.

          In Canada, parents can have their child taken away from them ,if they don't agree with the trangender process. Plus we pay the taxes for it. 

          Nobody loves more and have more responsibles for their own child than their parents. Yes, this is insane, so leave our kids alone. Home schooling is booming, no wonder, this is where the line is drawn.

            Woke thinks by cancelling cultures they are building back better. With no social, biological or economic model to go by. This has to be the beginning of the end of the ‘woke’ movement. Will the Democratic Party turn its back on ‘wokeness’ because it's so outrageous ridiculous. Woke peaked two years ago, after the murder of George Floyd. Another case of wrong facts and evidence along with January 6th..If this is the best the left can do against the right , this movement has to be declining in influence. In my non bias anarchist option.  This a weapon of mass distractions confusion. To political debating race, immigration, gender ideology and school curricula swinging from hard left to hard right, The American pendulum might just be heading back to the “normie” middle in connection with my 80 year apocalypse theory of 2025.

    ... won't they be surprised when they discover how hard it is to find employment, how few people will help them by renting out a room ... I mean, by giving them a room ... and then once they get on their feet to some extent, are charged $2,000.00 a month for that room?

    ... won't they be surprised when they eventually see how high their taxes are?

    Aren't they already finding out how cold it is in Chicago or New York? Even LA, in the middle of winter can be wet and very cold on the streets. Or how constantly rainy it is in Oregon and Washington or swelteringly hot/humid summertime is in Texas or Georgia.

    No, for those who cannot find housing and employment ... or would it be in reverse order: employment and housing?) They will be perishing huddled together in their groups.

    Biden wanted to offset the number of whites and conservative voters with these massively migrating people. Surely, they can be told who to vote for, he/they assumed ... 

    But my hope is this:

    Perhaps it will all backfire and these immigrants will see what is really happening here and vote for someone else to be in charge of this beautiful country they find themselves in ...
    (where even non-citizen "residents" can vote!)

    Perhaps they will vote for ...

                Whups!  Belief does not produce knowledge.  The idea that it does is one of the biggest differences between the believer and non-believer.

                  'Whups!' here too. To me and like-minds, the difference between a believer and non-believer, is the mentality of God or Christ (-centeredness).                                   Yea, believe doesn't produce knowlege. But it affirm knowledge in the form of faith or confession.                                     We believd there's God, or God exists. Is that knowledge not an affirmation of faith?

                    Again, belief is not knowledge.  Asking if the knowledge coming from belief is a confirmation of faith doesn't make sense as knowledge does not come from belief.

      I'm able to take much of every group into my soul and incorporate it. For my soul is made of a million parts. Like Country, name, spirit, environment, work, love, health, freedom and so on. Centroism in an over ego world and is most dangerous. First I'm a biological organism first and look at each individual more holisticly, from being more of a moderate.

    Furthermore:
    ------->knowledge is absolutely necessary for belief.
    Jesus discusses this topic as well when he says, "your belief has made you whole/well."
    meaning your belief and faith is based on knowledge.

    Learning, researching and confirmation is  r e q u i r e d  to have faith and belief.

          The western empire nations are collapsing like the Romans. Like civil wars and world wars are booming, where I've not seen in my life time . Wars of social and economic divides and depopulation programs. Forget the Politicians and the head of the snake, being the wealthiest business men. Last 15 years I've prepared my own family and community bond. A bed I can lay in with a tiny housing community and urban farming. People are sure talking about it now. Even got few hit men,  to boot, half my girlfriend family are in the military. Only a very few are prepared for more worst to come. Can't beat the Man, woman and child institutions of love. Don't know a better leadership than myself and with a our prepared community. Where the sissy genderism mental disorders with political community is not. Or good luck with that.

              In LA a proposal of Tiny homes help restore dignity, safety and a sense of autonomy to its residents.
              Each  cost about $55,000.

              Although expensive LA building codes are a greater problem and 75% of the street homeless are mentally ill. I had to refuse a similar problem with my approval to build tiny house villages in Vancouver because this adds up to an impossibility issue. For many years there were a few people builders building 100s of free tiny houses in LA free. Which were almost all removed and trashed. 

              My tiny houses come with urban farming, solar, rocket stove/ heater/cooking. Chemical toilet, portable and moved by tow truck cheap.  Winterize for anywhere in North America. Costing only $20,000.  I've given up in Government corrupted encouragements, it's never ending to design things to fail.  My designs are for healthy enough people, who may fall through the cracks of Government. And another options rather than a 15 minute cities salvey agendas. One  of the greatest revolution in world history was the  first American Revolution for individual independence and integrity.

              tsmog, the first link doesn't found me well. The second link does.                               However, I can say that these 'tiny houses' are nothing less or more than houses for the poor, or moderate income earners.                                             In Nigeria, the politicians are always envious of such ventures when completed.                                  I recalled one such venture while serving in civil service. Though the money for the buildings was borrowed from mortgage bank, Civil Servants are ear-marked as the main beneficiaries, because their monthly deductions contributed for the repayment of the loan.                             But when the building was done while still serving, the politician, under the watch of the State governor hijacked it.                                   Critically, they was a protest and those who retired had to take back their money with interest, and the deductions stop. I now live in the houue I build before I retired.

                In Mexico most people or families build their own house. After corruption in Canada and the US. A house with a mortgage and coded services cost are 70% over the cost of a house in its  lifetime. In Vancouver and Toronto the adverage house is a million dollars. Vancouver is the third most unaffordable city in the world and Canada has one of the longest freezing temperatures.  Strange Canada has the second largest land mass country in the world. As a youth adult, most can buy a house in their late 20s. Today it's people in their late age 40s and need 25 years to put a down payment on a house.

                Your lucky In Nigeria, I think your able to build that house there and avoid the deathgrip of a mortgage and for most part cost of a house. I built nine of them so far because got around ridiculous building codes and outrageous services and taxes by tiny house building. Imagine all the freedom with money to spare.  Just add additional housing as you can afford it.

        Castlepaloma! Castlepaloma! I noticed you've changed your human picture profile to a castle.                                        Did you stole the castle, and you're talking about God, and religion? Which way?                                        Where have you been all these days? I'm sure you're visiting Alice in Wonder? Did you catch you with Nathanville, and ignore him to talk with a complete stranger?                                       Castlepaloma, Castlepaloma!

          Why would I steal , my own indoor world record scale sandcastle?  Most of my hubpages topics are of my sand sculptures. Today I make tiny houses called Castlewithout thehassle. Castles were first designed to protect from animals, until people's greed and envy came along. Alice in Wonderland was a girl trying to understand Adults hypocrites. At times I'm childlike, not childish, with an adult attitude and grateful for it. Always open to anyone with no fear. Natanville is still stuck on the dark age of the British Empire. Glad the continent of Africa is wiser now, to their corruption. Not putting down your God, just don't understand it. Whatever works. Don't understand anymore than a worm knows the Sun.

    ... rather than post a new topic I think I shall just continue this thread.

    Could Donald Trump Be The Next Speaker of the House?

    What if they picked Trump?
    How would that look?
    I mean, Marjorie Taylor Green is adamant that Trump should be it, even though he may not have much time right now, what with all his pending legal battles.

      Think Vivek is a more intelligent thinker and speaker. He generally support Trump and Green support is not so bad. Trump would be the lesser of the two evils. Yet Trudeau must go.

        At least Trump listen to what the popularist wants. Like everybody love dogs, don't they?
        He turn to vaccines afterwards and that was too late. He loss the election for vaccines bandwagon fears. .Very little integrity there.

              The unite Stat s is not a business entity and the President of the United States is not a CEO of a capitalist class company. He cannot be an authoritarian, so his modus operandi isnprone to fail from the outset. Trump has always been out of his element from 2017.

                Perhaps the "element" of being a powerful politician has passed its usefulness as far as the country is concerned.  Although it certainly has its perks for the politician.

                    There is a differences between a leader and a manipulator. And why I don't trust top policans as much as I can throw them. And I can't throw big Trump, very far.

                    A true leader has good intentions to lead by example and from the heart, shortly follow by the mind.

                    A munipulator
                    occurs when a person uses controlling and harmful behaviors to avoid responsibility, conceal their true intentions, or cause doubt and confusion. Manipulation tactics, such as gaslighting, lying, blaming, criticizing, and shaming, can damage a person's psychological well-being.
