When things go wrong and will not come right
Though you do the best you can
When life looks black as the hour of night
A pint of plain is your only man
When money's tight and hard to get
And your horse has also ran
When all you have is a heap of debt
A pint of plain is your only man
When health is bad and your heart feels strange
And your face is pale and wan
When doctors say you need a change
A pint of plain is your only man
When food is scarce and your larder bare
And no rashers grease your pan
When hunger grows as your meals are rare
A pint of plain is your only man
In time of trouble and lousey strife
You have still got a darling plan
You still can turn to a brighter life
A pint of plain is your only man

This is my first attempt at posting a blog. It will be a blog containing streams of consciousness that hit me from time to time and could be on any range of subjects. I would ask that anybody reading these first steps to be patient as I work out the kinks not only on the website but also with my writings.
And my writings are designed to make people think about whatever subject is at hand and to have, if possible, some informative and cogent discussions.
I will state things as I see them. Being apolitical, I have no particular affiliation with, nor affection for, any political party. I do not hold politicians in high regard. I think that 99% of all who seek election are self centered prats who's first, and practically sole, objective is to get themselves re-elected, and not serving the needs of their constituents, who are merely means to an end.
My aim is not to be offensive. Well, let me clarify that: my aim is not to be offensive to "plain people" - like myself! But if you are in the "public eye" - for example: in politics in any capacity, or in the "entertainment" business, count yourself as an "influencer" or somehow contrive to come to the attention of main stream platforms, you are fair game to me. Likewise, if you choose to interact with any of my posts and become personal towards me or anyone else who may contribute to this site, I will share your particular brand of ignorance and then shut you down. So keep it positive. You can disagree with me at any time but once you start being stupid, you're done. OK?
