CANBERRA DAY
MIND
Vannevar Bush 1890

He urges that men of science should then turn to the massive task of making more accessible our bewildering store of knowledge. For years inventions have extended man’s physical powers rather than the powers of his mind. Trip hammers that multiply the fists, microscopes that sharpen the eye, and engines of destruction and detection are new results, but not the end results, of modern science.

SOUL
Bobby McFerrin 1950 – “Don’t Worry be Happy”
Listening to Bobby McFerrin sing may be hazardous to your preconceptions.

*Listen to this song when you wake up and right before you go to bed. Make it part of your daily plan for success.
MONEY
Rupert Murdoch 1931
Murdoch’s empire has grown to include investment in DIRECTV and a number of social networking sites while his movie studio, 21st Century Fox, has created box office hits such as “Titanic” and “Avatar.”

Beyond lobbying, Murdoch and his company have made millions of dollars in political contributions. (Murdoch himself has given more than $130,000 in the last decade. News Corp. has given about $1.7 million.) Though he makes no secret of his right-leaning views and has generally backed political conservatives on both sides of the Atlantic, Murdoch’s donations over the years have often been less ideological than opportunistic.
Murdoch has personally given money to Sens. John Kerry and Chuck Schumer, two of the most liberal Democrats in the Senate. He even held a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton’s Senate reelection campaign, which reportedly netted $60,000, while personally giving $2,100 to the cause.

*Another reason to strive for more money is unfortunate but true – money can be used to help your political agenda. If you’re like me and have given up on politics, keep that money and help fix society on your own.
ENTERTAINMENT

What kind of women are you looking for these days?
Whatever’s within reaching distance. Proximity is very important to me. Otherwise, I’m not that picky. Eighteen to 80, blind, crippled or crazy.
*Watch the original Jackass movie as a complete escape from reality today.
FOOD
Lawrence Welk 1903 – chicken and dumplings

I do not believe that I would have had the courage to face up to my shyness, however, had I not first recognized God as my Creator, shyness and all, Christ as my strength and example, and the Holy Spirit as my source of constant inspiration.
