Revenge of the Creatives LXXXII

Banksy

How bout an 'Artist in Residence in 
Tacoma', say a three month gig... 
A month to do Tacoma, three weeks 
to do Seattle, another three weeks to 
do Olympia, finalized by a two week 
finale in Tacoma?

Thanks Banksy, NY needed this... hell, the world
needed this.

Peace and Love and see you in Tacoma!

Revenge of the Creatives LXXXI

Rainy Days and Sundays, and yes 
Foggy Days... 

The Creatives in Tacoma have 
my attention
The US has been great at Urban Renewal and 
Redevelopment. Usually by bringing in a few 
Cat 9's and leveling the beautiful craftsman 
buildings and replacing it all with new modern 
buildings with a 25 year life span.

Well in Tacoma, Washington the Creatives have 
in the 'Northwest Way', built on the beautiful things 
they already have. Tacoma is full of treasurers built 
between the mid 1800's and the early 1900's. Buildings 
like the venerable old F.S. Harmon & Company 
furniture factory and warehouse. F.S. Harmon 
& Company started its manufacturing business 
in Tacoma in 1909. Today thanks to Creatives
 the Harmon building and others now houses 
the University of Washington Tacoma campus, 
a new and very successful high school, the 
Tacoma School of the Arts, the Harmon Brewing 
Co. and Eatery, to mention only a few treasurers.  
The area is known as the Tacoma Downtown 
Museum and University District, Other delights in 
the district are the WASHINGTON STATE HISTORY 
MUSEUM, the LeMay– America’s Car Museum,  
The Museum of Glass, The Union Station, the 
Broadway Center for the Preforming Arts, The 
Tacoma Art Museum and much more.

Anyway, today was a 'Rainy day and Sunday', so 
we did what all true North Westerners do, walked  
in the rain and ignored the rain, took  photos and 
will take many more over the winter.

  One Picture is Worth a thousand Protests 
                       in the USA

        QUESTION: Why don't we get into 
      the streets like our European brothers 
                       and sisters?

Revenge of the Creatives LXXIX

We will have elections on 4 November 2014...

Following are my notes for a blog posting

'Paul and IAVA have seen a total end to most VA 
payments in the last week. GI Bill, Disability, Health 
Care and more will be stopped on November 1. 
The republicans are completely un-American in their 
actions.

This weekend we see Palin and Cruz with a rabble 
of about 200, at the WW2 memorial spitting on park 
police who are working without pay to protect the 
memorial. At the same time they turn a blind eye to 
veterans, their dependents and all people in need. 
Things are getting very close to the tipping point...

Sunday Palin and Cruz led a rabble and removed 
barricades from the Capital Mall. Today the toilets in 
the Mall were stinking and running over, European 
tourists were busy with cell phones  recording the 
republican right's handy work. Palin and Cruz 
were silent.

The Koch Bros gave Billions for gerrymandering 
solid tea party states, default will happen and it 
will be so bad around the whole world. However, 
we will have elections in November 2014. All 
of the tea party states will vote Democratic.

The Koch Bros sent a letter to the US Senate, 
stating, they were not responsible for the shut down. 
Meanwhile Karl Rove and Rush are playing their
violins while the world economy rocks on the edge. 
After the continuing republican right disaster and 
the Tuesday 4 November 2014 election, the Koch 
Bros will loose it all.

And as I have said before, god is a woman with 
a fierce sense of humor. 

He who laughs last, never saw the joke to start 
with. With great sadness for the global 99% I 
am laughing right now.'


News just in... In an election in New Jersey today
Cory Booker, Democrat was elected to the US
Senate. The Koch Bros will eventually learn 
that money is no longer the mothers milk
of US elections.

In a search for mature things to laugh about, 
I found Banksy's current NY project...



Thank you Banksy for a touch of sanity in the USA this month...
