UPDATE: Senator John McCain. Aretha Franklin. And locally, Weatherman Ed Brandon. What a busy week of high profile funerals of prominent people in Celebration of the lives that were lived for the right reasons. None of these people would want us to mourn their deaths, but rather carry on their example of of service above self. So many of us were motivated by the mortification that was the 2016 Presidential Campaign & subsequent Election & spurred into action to speak out, get involved & to organize. In Life & in Death, Senator McCain in particular exemplified a Bi-Partisan Spirit motivated by doing the right thing for the right reasons. What strikes me locally within the Democratic Party is
UPDATE: We trust that when we look to the nightly news for information about what's going on in our world, that what we are seeing & hearing is true & accurate. This trust is IMPLIED CREDIBILITY. We trust that if it's on TV it must be true. Unless there is deliberate disinformation, propaganda or FAKE NEWS. Originally posted back in November 2017, this is the origin of many of my ideas about "@theRealDonaldTrump" & his #FakeNews. The only "Real thing" about this "FakePresident is that he "Really watches too much TV." https://www.revolvingdoorhr.com/single-post/2018/07/29/REAL-News-FAKE-President https://www.revolvingdoorhr.com/single-post/2018/05/29/HollyWeird-the-Inexplicable-Rise-of-Dona
UPDATE: Thankfully me & my loved ones are still high & dry with lights and power at this point on day three of Hurricane Harvey. The Category 4 Hurricane made landfall southwest of us in Rockport, Texas which has pretty much been wiped off the map. My heart goes out to those people. There are now high-water rescues all across Houston overnight as we slept. The rain is forecast to continue all week this week. This picture is from Tropical Storm Allison in 2001. I-45 South @ Dickinson Bayou where our old house is, now has 3 feet of water on the Freeway!!! I wonder if the new owners of my house have standing water in the house yet? To give perspective on the rise of the Bayou, our house was
UPDATE: On This Day: August 27, 2017. So many of our public parks & green areas in the heart of the Downtown Metropolitan Houston area along Memorial Drive & Allen Parkway line the banks of Buffalo Bayou. The site of our biggest City-wide celebrations: Fourth of July, the Art Car Parade, Thanksgiving Parade & on & on & on has seen some of the worst of the worst flooding during Hurricane Harvey. Major corporations leading into the heart of Houston’s Business District, including our own Channel 11 studios: submerged. http://www.khou.com/ The green area in this inundation map highlights Memorial Park showing before & after water levels of Buffalo Bayou. The map doesn’t show where Buffalo Bayo
UPDATE: Local remembrances of 2017's Hurricane Harvey continue to pour in as many in our area are still trying to recover. Here is a gentle reminder of how we speak about weather-related events On This Day: August 27, 2017. The outpouring of support near & far for Hurricane Harvey Survivors has been heart-warming to say the least. Our city has been so devastated, even for those of us who were lucky enough to still have a place to call home. Harvey's effects will be felt in all of Southeast Texas for years. Earlier this year, one of our local meteorologists wrote an Op/Ed piece in his blog about "Humanizing the Weather" & how this is wrong & people should stop it. This really resonated with
On This Day August 26, 2018 in honor of Women's Equality Day, the Revolving Door HR opened for business. It's 100% of the reason I'm here. Women still struggle for Income Inequality, dignity and R-E-S-P-E-C-T. The Apotheosis of Suffrage, is a 1896 Political spoof of Constantine Brumedi's Apotheosis of Washington that graces the Capitol Rutunda in Washington DC. Taken from the the original Apotheosis of Washington that depicts George Washington as an Angel, this anti-suffragist cartoon MOCKS Elizabeth Cady Stanton & Susan B. Anthony for their tireless efforts to win Equal Rights for Women. Yesterday Senator John McCain, a true American hero got his Angel Wings. Immediately following the ann
Country above Party, doing the right thing for the right reason. This was Senator John McCain. Dignity. Respect. Truth & Honor, John McCain set the record straight when things were wrong. Senator McCain on State of the Union with Jake Tapper Simply thanking him for his service to this country is not enough. He spear-headed the defeat of the terrible Trump plan to "Repeal & Replace ObamaCARE," along with Senators Murkowski & Collins. Those of us in the Disability Community owe him our lives. He made it his mission to reach out to World Leaders after the #AprenticePresident was sworn in, to reassure them that America has Checks & Balances in place to reign him in when needed. He stood up to

UPDATE. When does Non-Verbal Communication take precedence over the words coming out of someone's mouth? I have long said that there is nothing worse than a roomful of insurance agents, particularly Medicare agents, with Medicare PART A, Medicare PART B, Medicare PART D, part, part, parting all over each other. That is one thing I won't miss about Open Enrollment this year. What I have found is that 9 times out of 10, it is the VICTIM of a Passive-Aggressive Non-Verbal Attack that gets blamed. In the not too distance past, I recently was Non-Verbally Attacked by a young woman who brought a Bottle of Water to a meeting I was attending. She sat there DRINKING HER WATER & glaring at me. It was
UPDATE: Written in 1948 under the name George Orwell, Eric Arthur Blair 's dystopian nightmare reality is one of the root causes of 20th Century Misogyny. Today is August 4th - 8/4/2018. Nobody I know has ever acted this way. Nobody I know has ever talked this way. I had to learn this for myself. Can we stop BLAMING WOMEN for the English Language??? This is DISCRIMINATION. This is SEXISM.

Still needing to promote & sell a few books of my own, I thought I would take a time out to promote & highlight "A Citizen's Guide to Impeachment," by Barbara Ann Radnofsky. ABOUT A CITIZEN'S GUIDE TO IMPEACHMENT from the Back Cover: "A non-partisan guide to a precise understanding of the rules and history of impeachment. Spotlighting, in particular, the precise rules of impeachment—including an explanation of the crucial grounds for impeachment, the famous “high crimes and misdemeanors”—this book also details the origins in British law, the rules as set out by the founding fathers in the Constitution, and their application throughout the history of our democracy. That history includes a det
UPDATE. Excessive Punative Damages against Toyota & Monsanto in separate jury awards were announced yesterday. While these two cases didn't originate as a result of Medical Malpractice, the families involved will have enormous medical bills for the rest of their lives. While these juries did make the right decision, the monetary awards were excessive & will increase prices we all pay. Open Enrollment Season is upon us. As a Life & Health Insurance Agent and as the Grandmother of a child who was almost killed by his doctors, I have an opinion on this. Everything in me wants to sue the shit out of anyone involved in Solomon's birth. Most accurately the #1 factor in driving up the cost of Hea

I think so. In fact, I find the NAME 49ers highly offensive & misogynistic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francisco_49ers Said to be named for the 1849 California Gold Rush, in today's world of Political Correctness & Racial Sensitivity (or lack there of) I find the NAME of this team every bit as offensive as say the Washington Redskins. I remember the uproar several years ago over whether the Redskins should be re-named due to Racial Insensitivity towards Native Americans. Is this the SAME THING??? Of course it is. BOTH NAMES are foul & offensive. - just saying.
UPDATE; Yesterday on August 16, Aretha Franklin went to the great Turn Table in the Sky. The #QueenOfSoul solidified her place among the stars as an angel. The inspiration for "Yes, I'd Like to Thank the Academy: How to Tame the Red Carpet in YOUR Office" was born of the fact that my Mom's Uncle - my Great Uncle - my Grandmother's brother OWNED a Radio Station at a time when that "young whipper-snapper" Elvis was King of Rock. In my opinion, people need lessons on how to listen to the radio, lessons on how to watch TV. THIS is how the #ApprenticePresident managed to steal the election from Hillary Clinton. Below is an excerpt from Chapter One & the Table of Contents. **********************
Emotional Intelligence is toning down the rhetoric. Emotional Intelligence is diffusing volatile situations. With respect to our elected leaders we EXPECT them to be skilled DIPLOMATS. Can someone in the Judicial Branch under whose jurisdiction the Pentagon & Intelligence Community of our government fall under PLEASE teach the Apprentice President how to de-escalate volatile situations? To think the man who can be baited by a Twitter Tweet has his itchy trigger-finger on the Nuclear Button is a terrifying thought.

UPDATE: Women's Equality Day, in recognition of the signing of the 19th Amendment is around the corner. We need one more state to Ratify the Equal Rights Amendment before it can be enacted into the US Constitution. *********************************** The National Organization of Women (NOW) is asking all of us to picture ourselves with our vision of what equality means to us as individuals by participating in their National Action Program, then share on Social Media. www.NOW.org
Doublespeak, innuendo & coded language is why the whole world has their nose out of joint. If women don't have Equal Rights in this country who is responsible for deciding that 8:40 in the morning is "Time to make the doughnuts?" Donald Trump continues to divide rather than unite this country & the World. Here in this country, the #ApprenticePresident deepens the racial divide on a daily basis, exaggerating the cries of "white supremacy" among the public, The problem is bad enough with no exaggeration. How are WOMEN to blame for the English Language??? https://www.revolvingdoorhr.com/the-squeaky-chair-symphony Can I tell you that Misogyny is every bit as painful as Racism??? Until we can e
