A Puerto Rican Moment …. “It Happens …. “Puerto Rican First Aid Kit …. indeed”!!

~~September 3, 2016~~ 

THIS AIN’T NO LIE

It may sound outlandish but there are certain mandatory items that every Puerto Rican needs in case of an emergency.

It can be an approaching hurricane, it can be the flu, it can be the heat, it can be an unplanned gathering.

Any event is a big deal for Puerto Ricans.

A supply of Bacardi is mandatory.

Krazy Glue is used for many purposes as well as “Alcoholado” or “Agua de Mamelis”.

Bustello coffee, the ‘Santeria’ candle, a ‘piragua’ (snow cone), Vick’s VapoRub, Adobo Goya and ‘pasteles’ area ‘must’.

You are ready to hunker down until the emergency is resolved.

Thoughts for today, #397 …. “Colin Kaepernick …. I am with you …. “!!

~~September 1, 2016~~

CONFIRMED

Colin Kaepernick will sit again during tonight’s National Anthem

Here’s what I know – he will likely sit alone.

In fact, I doubt one player will ever join him in this, but what I do know is this …

MILLIONS of Americans will be joining him in spirit as we protest injustice in this nation.

I, for one, will never stand again for that damn anthem.

Jackie Robinson made the same commitment.

It is based on a lie and written by a bigoted slaveholding man who originally celebrated the murder of slaves in the song itself.

I pass.

Always.

‘Spirit Of The Drums’

American Indian Spiritual Relaxing Healing Music

~~Published on Nov 18, 2013~~

Powerful Native American Music stylings

The drum is a powerful tool in Native American Indian/First Nations culture. The drums are the literal “heartbeat” of our spirits …. and we express that through our music and dance. Here is a cool new Flute, Drum & Guitar upbeat healing song honoring the Spirit Of The Drums …. along with some superb images of the USA Desert Southwest.
