A mixed bag of writings from the mind of Patrick t McManus. Saturday, October 30, 2004. A Very Scary Story. Some time in 2008 the US military will leave Iraq to the Iraqis. The Kurds seize this chance to declare their independence. Turkey, fearing that the desire for their own state will spread to their Kurdish minority, invades northern Iraq to put down the attempt to create Kurdistan. The US will have no troops to stop them, the Iraqi security forces greet them with open arms. The Indians protest the P...

A mixed bag of writings from the mind of Patrick t McManus. Monday, May 10, 2004. These actions are all products of an American Culture that defines some people as being sub-human or non-human or bad-guys or "evil doers" and therefore don't have any rights. I have a hunch that Rumsfield regrets creating so much dependency on citizen soldiers that return to civilian life and escape military discipline and control so soon after their tours of duty.

A mixed bag of writings from the mind of Patrick t McManus. Wednesday, July 21, 2004. In Defense of Politics and Political Writing. Political writing has a long and vital history, especially here in the US.

Of course that was during the Age of reason when reasonable and civilized discourse prevailed. This is the ...

A mixed bag of writings from the mind of Patrick t McManus. Monday, November 10, 2003. The Age of Extreme. The Information Revolution has given rise to so much noise i.e. competing messages, sales pitches spam etc. that there has been an increase in extreme behavior to attempt to break through the noise and get people s message out. Thus extremism gains media attention and exposure. More and more insinuation and innuendo are becoming the way to media and political attention and power.

A mixed bag of writings from the mind of Patrick t McManus. Tuesday, September 28, 2004. Book Review For Us the Living: A Comedy of Customs. By Robert A Heinlein. I recently had the very good fortune to stumble across this "new" book by Robert Heinlein at the library. It is the long lost, never published 1st novel by the Grand Master. Written in 1938 and submitted but never published, it contains the seeds of much of his future writing. Patrick McManus The Man of Many Hats. Posted by Patrick @ 1:51 PM.

A mixed bag of writings from the mind of Patrick t McManus. Friday, October 03, 2003. Truth depends on the questions you ask. The Great California Recall of 2003 is the first major electoral test of the 21st century, and it is showing the defining power of the public opinion poll and the news power of the entertainment media. The media experts mainly at the operations level, have become poll junkies, anointing the polls with the wisdom of objective numbers. Most people already admit that they get their v...

Customers want low fares, low fares, low fares and they are not willing to pay extra for a free meal. Sean Donohue VP for United Airlines. Why is the White House so ready willing and eager to spend $87 B in Iraq and so little here in the US. An example: The White house requests $2.5B to rebuild the road system. How do they know?
