History is about remembering why!


Why do we continue to spiral on, doing the same things over and over again?
Education.
Education of our history.
History isn't about dates and places, it's about people and who said what and who did what and the most important thing is WHY?
For example, WHY did Hitler do what he did? (this picture is from the holocaust of WWII)
WHY have millions of people been killed throughout history in the name of 'whatever it was', be it country, religion, a god?
Because we don't learn. History.
Life is a spiral but we must move UP the spiral and the only way is to look back at our history and try to understand the reasons WHY...and THEN NOT REPEAT THEM!
Unfortunately, the USA hasn't learnt their lesson...look at Trump.
And then there's my little host country....I wonder when the holocaust will begin here?

Ooops! Scratched it! Corruption at its best! #RT #SHARE

Demonstration against 'Dodgy' Council Property Sales (January 2015)

OK, so, here's the latest piece of OBVIOUS CORRUPTION over here in this little country. It's so 'slap my face but you must joking' kinda transparently corrupt. It's 'bang your head against a brick wall and watch the stupids walk by' kinda dumb.
Here it is in the original language...
http://www.origo.hu/itthon/20160317-megsemmisult-a-belvarosi-ingatlanugyletek-bizonyiteka-a-rendorsegen.html
And here's my attempt at translating the news...I was going to say 'story' but then you'll think it's not real...took a while to read it...here goes...
The Mayor of the Budapest 5th District back in 2006-2014 made some very dodgy property sales in the name of the local council, selling buildings at 30%-50% discount to some 'flyboys' that can only be described as 'gangsters/criminals' and who then sold the properties on in a short period of time at double the price they got them for. The lease periods were also long-term leases and these short-term sales were incorrect.
A member of an Opposition Party drew attention to this, and the former Mayor started a lawsuit against him. In the lawsuit, this Opposition Party member asked for the files which showed all these transactions to be included in his evidence.
Funnily enough, while in the hands of the Police, the CD which contained ALL of the information (800 sales) was 'accidentally' destroyed...corrupted, as they say...LOL.
Apparently there is no copy of this CD, and the time to re-collect all this information again from the 5th district council cannot be calculated, and they keep postponing the lawsuit.
It's a farce. Really. Corrupt, corrupt, corrupt. The former Mayor is corrupt, the Police are corrupt, (the legal system is corrupt too because they tried something as well but I couldn't understand that bit).
The CD's corrupt, too!
This former Mayor is now spokesman for the political party in power and doing well. They're all doing well. That certain short person in charge with no property and no need to pay tax on nothing is living quite well on 155+ hectares of land in a small village next to the village with the useless football stadium and soon-to-be-built tourist small railway which will have a longer line if anyone complains about it...
...can you believe all this? Unfortunately, it's all true.



"One Star Reviews of the Afterlife" - Short story coming out soon!

New Short Story in this nice book here "One Star Reviews of the Afterlife", one of my favourite topics...Blog Tour coming, an interview with the editor, Giovanni Valentino, Editor in Chief at Strange Musings Press...!
http://giovannivalentino.blogspot.com/


What is it about? Well, here you go...

As you shuffle off this mortal coil, many things will go through your mind. Will you be remembered well? Did you live the best life you could? Did you leave the iron on? And most importantly, did you remember to delete your browser history recently? But the big question that will finally hit you full on, is there something after all of this? And if so, will it suck? If only Yelp! had a category for the afterlife.
Here is a collection of humorous tales of the afterlife that covers the I.T. woes of Heaven, the dangers involved in using out-of-date occult tools, the perils of not saving appropriately for the hereafter, the shock of finding out that not every good deed will get you through the pearly gates and the cold hard fact that paradise just isn’t for everyone.

So go to the light at your own peril.
It could be life everlasting, or it could be an oncoming train.

100 Free downloads! + Daffodil the dog

"Dani's Shorts 5" has finally hit 100 FREE downloads! I hope someone reads it.
https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/587914
AND someone read 3 pages of "Rage of Atlantis" on KENP! Oh, the "Big Time"...let me rest after that excitement...
Oh yes, Daffodil...
http://hungarianspectrum.org/2016/03/05/a-footnote-to-the-story-of-daffodil/
...is the name of a certain person's dog. Now, because of the law in this country, this dog has a chip which shows where it is. Its home. Strange. How can that place be its home? This huge place is owned by a company... of the father of this certain person. The estates around this estate are owned by friends and associates of this certain person. Hundreds of millions of Forints have gone into these estates in recent years in building and renovation. This certain person goes to these estates during the week. This certain person has no property... at least that's what this certain person's tax return says. Mmmm, whatever could it mean?

Weekend Quickie 169

It's nice to write. Working on the next book. 11,000+ words. Looking good.
Oh, and here's WQ169! It's very nice :-)



WQ169 - (200 words, image above, a faux pas, a mail order bride, a back-handed compliment)


"Come here often?" he asked the girl who was dressed as a Chicken McNugget.
"Only on a Tuesday," she replied.
They sat overlooking the beach and watched the waves crashing against the long-forgotten and decrepit skyscrapers of yesteryear. The others were almost asleep, the party calming down after too much to drink and too little to eat.
"So, why the costume?" he asked.
"Why so many goddamn questions!" she retorted.
"Ooo, touchy." The noise of the waves gradually overcame any noises from the campfire behind.
"Sorry," she said. "Someone told me it was fancy dress tonight."
"Like you can have a fancy dress party after the Apocalypse. Nice costume, though."
"Thanks."
He glanced over to her as the shine from the half moon hit her face. "You're so pretty..."
"Thank you," she said, smiling over to him.
"...for your size."
Her smile disappeared and she crossed her arms, creasing her McNugget and making it bulge in all the wrong places.
"So, what were you before... all this?" He motioned his hand across the destruction of the whole human civilisation.
"A mail-order bride," she said with a snark.
"Pages 45 through to 70?" he asked.
It's amazing how fast ground travels.

They are now 'Slapping the Shit'! please #SHARE #RT

Seems I only post politics nowadays...hang on...it's NOT politics, it's LIFE.
Politics is dull, uninteresting, but unfortunately, it's a system we created so we don't have to deal with the everyday running of our lives. Unfortunately, as soon as politics was created, in came its soul brother 'corruption'.  Nothing we can do except GIVE A SHIT  and make sure no dipshit loser who thinks he/she's God can get in and control a country... that would be Trump in the USA. We already have our crazy dictator here.

A few of the Unbelieveable things which happened this week...so far...

The Government has accepted to close their new administrative 'department' in the Education system (KLIK) and create a 'brand new' one... I think they should call it DICK.
This move is of course...
1. a way to show voters that they're doing something about the problem they have with Education (which it isn't);
2. a way to INCREASE CORRUPTION by charging double for all the changes they'll make for it to happen. They did it before when they created KLIK. "Slapping the shit" (an old Hungarian saying...work it out, imagine the scene...)

There are also plans to make ALL GOVERNMENT SPENDING SECRET...
as the Big Man said...     
                                     "when they give us the money, it's not theirs anymore. Why do they need to know what we do with it"      
                                            ...great words. Dick.
 The tax payers will not know what the Government will spend the country's money on. This is BLATANT CORRUPTION, or TRANSPARENT CORRUPTION on the largest scale possible.

Money matters for the Government. Politics don't. There aren't any. It's a dictatorship, no need to be political about anything. When ONE PERSON is calling the shots, there is no place for politics... and no place for citizens.

When's the Revolution? Looks like these people will never move. When the Government have squeezed the last forint out of the country, the citizens and the EU, and sold it all to the Russians, maybe THEN the people will move. But then it'll be too late.

Posters and now TV adverts! Shoving it in our faces!

Yes, they're shoving their dictatorship communist style illiberal democracy in our faces. They've been doing it for years.
First they took small things like the flag/rosetta and made them their own...when they should be FOR ALL Hungarians and NOT just Liberals...oh, sorry, Illiberals.
Then they put up huge billboards saying how FANTASTIC their illiberal democracy is working. You couldn't go down to the local shop without being hit in he face by these huge blue posters...here's one of many...
 
 (We save a lot in this reformed system) - rough translation
They then moved onto 'brainwashing' with these billboards about immigrants...there were a lot of different messages, this is one...

(If you come to Hungary, don't take jobs away from Hungarians!) - perfect translation

ALL these posters were paid for by TAX PAYERS money, around HUF 500m each campaign.

The small Two-tailed Dog Party retaliated with their own versions...

 (If you are the Hungarian Prime Minister, you must keep to the laws and regulations) - rough translation

The Two-tailed Dog Party even had their posters in English...You see, the dictatorship communist style illiberal democracy's billboards were in Hungarian, addressed to ALL immigrants who don't know Hungarian! So they were actually PROMOTING HATE amongst Hungarian citizens. The Two-tailed Dog Party wanted to make sure the immigrants understood.



AND NOW...(I think they did this earlier, too), we're getting TV adverts about how GREAT it all is! Yes, we're getting it our faces every hour! This is, of course, ILLEGAL...and they are AGAIN using TAX PAYERS money to promote and brainwash. This blog won't let me add a video plus I can't find one...but here's the message...
 

..errr, no.

No matter how many demonstrations there are, how many lies are debunked, how many MPs are revealed to be liers and cheats, how much corruption is found, they continue on with "Mi van?" (What's the matter?)
The sister of the President (an honourary title, 2nd ranked person in the country and loyal to the 'illiberal democracy') has now been made Head of KLIK, the adminstrative department of Education, the person who deals with all finance and documentation of schools...the teachers are now in a lot of trouble...SHARE THE NEWS....Dictatorship is ripe and alive, in the form of a communist illiberal democracy.

THE PROBLEM
A country isn't one person's plaything to give to that person's friends, family and acquaintances, it belongs to the citizens and so whoever has been elected to lead the country should LISTEN TO THE CITIZENS and NOT THEMSELVES. One's called a Dictatorship, the other a Government.



Oh, and someone read 3 pages of "Rage of Atlantis" through Amazon's KENP the other days...WOW...maybe they'll read more! Or is this the Secret Police, come to find me?
