• The Death of "Common Sense" by Lori Borgman

  Obituary of the late Mr. “Common Sense” Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, “Common Sense”, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; Why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn’t always fair; and Maybe it was my fault. “Common Sense” lived by simple, sound financial policies (don’t spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6 -year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. “Common Sense” lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Panadol, sun lotion or a band-aid to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. “Common Sense” lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. “Common Sense” took a beating when you couldn’t defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault. “Common Sense” finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. “Common Sense” was preceded in death by his parents, “Truth” and “Trust”; his wife, “Discretion”; his daughter, “Responsibility”; and his son, “Reason”. He is survived by his 3 stepbrothers; “I Know My Rights”, “Someone Else Is To Blame”, and “I’m A Victim”. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

  I haven’t written any journal entries for a while, but wanted to share an experience from this morning. I was in need of a haircut but didn’t have any cash in my wallet. Stuck my head in the front door of the barber shop on the corner that I have never been into before and asked if he had EFTPOS or credit card facilities. He told me he didn’t have either but I needn’t worry, he would cut my hair and I was welcome to come back and pay him at my leisure. I told him that I needed to find an ATM and might not be back until the afternoon to which he responded, “This afternoon, next week, next month…does not matter, I know you will come back and pay me.” Maybe this happens more than I’m aware of, but I know I was pleasantly surprised and this one simple act restored some of my faith in human nature. Trust is alive and well in the suburbs…

• The National Trust won't work with anyone

  This is a more considered post after I’ve had some time to reflect on the issue involved. I found out, the hard way, that the National Trust photographic library won’t work with anyone. Even if the plan has commercial merit for the benefit of both parties, you can be sure that the photo library unit will not let you gain any benefit. Basically, it comes down to that if you take a picture while on an area of National Trust land which would require a ticket or purchase to get to, then you will not be able to sell the image. In fact, you are actually not allowed even to take a picture whilst in such an area. Local venues don’t have the power to grant such ability. Taking pictures within such areas is, apparently, reserved for their photographic library only. That is probably going to be news for all the people I see happily snapping pictures whenever I visit such a property. I’ve never entered a property and seen any such warning about not being allowed to take photographs beyond the point of ticket entry; only for individual buildings whilst on the land. This is the National Trust cleverly operating double standards. I put it down to either lack of communication and the local venues either not knowing the national rules, or deliberatley chosing to flout them for risk of upsetting and turning away an ever more snap happy paying visitor. This state of affairs came about after a conversation with staff from the photographic library. My actual conclusion was that the National Trust is knowingly only enforcing the rules when it is most convenient for it. The safest thing to do is not to take a camera. (edit: after further conversation with the Photographic Library team, apparently amateur/personal photography is allowed but how they distinguish from a pro with a quality compact and an amateure with a DSLR is a bit on the intriguing side. Also, how they police the images is another odd question.) The photo library states that is trying to protect the commercial viability of their image library. The ultimate question, therefore, is what do they do with that library which makes money for the National Trust? What is it about that library which makes it worth protecting? It also raises the question that if the library has such a large collection of useful images which are available to local sites, then why do venues ask for help creating photo albums and the like? Don’t they know that they are asking their visitors to voluntarily admit to having broken the rules on photography and open themselves up to the possibility of legal procedings? It starts to sound as if the only audience for the photographic library is actually the venues themselves, and that the library thus has the power to dictate its customers to purchase only from itself. If that is true, then it would certainly be a sad set of affairs. The whole thing is a mess, if you ask me. The national rules hamstring the local venues quite effectively from undertaking what could be profitable ventures, and allows the various sections of the National Trust to operate double standards; some venues knowing, and others not. With some venues having blurred boundaries between attached woodland and garden areas the boundaries get even more blurred. The upshot of all this is that if the National Trust don’t like you’re face and want to prosecute, then you’re in trouble. All this might seem pathetic and picky, but with the increasing amount of U.K. herritage coming under the protection of the national trust, it brings me to mind of a few lines from The King and I … “If allies are strong with power to protect me, / Might they not protect me out of all I own?” It does concern me that with the prices of tickets being quite high already in relation to other venues, that the National Trust could soon be in a position to hold a gun against the financial head of the people of the country for access to the nations own herritage … the very people who it relies on to volunteer their time to support their operations. I am concerned that the National Trust is developing a very dangerous attitude. Just look at what the National Trust have done in Studland since they inherited the land there; persecuting naturists. (The National Trust have ignored my e-mails for explanations. As a member of the national trust I believe I am entitled to know the aims and objectives of what I am a member of.) These people hold the nations heritage in their hands, and they are dictating the kinds of people that they prefer to be utilising that heritage; that is a very dangerous thing to do. Time will … as usual … tell.

• Trust issues, not writing diary of a psychopath, and other random thoughts...

  I started writing diary of a psychopath, becauase I thought that’s what people wanted. They wanted the next in the line of shock and awe. I knew I could write that, because, well I’ve seen enough psychopaths in my life that I knew what they thought about, what they actually believed when they killed. I am unfortunately a product of a psychopath. But people mistake the terms of them. They think all psychopaths are killers, and that’s just not true. There are far more of these people in our midst than those really realize. They are people who just don’t care about anyone else but themselves. And I know there are a lot people that say, ‘I don’t care what anyone thinks of me.’ And to them they are telling the truth, but they do care what people think on some level or they wouldn’t get up everyday and go to work. They wouldn’t live by society’s laws, and they certainly couldn’t fall in love with another person. They don’t know what love is. The sad thing is, that what it takes to make a psychopath, is relatively small. It just takes one instance, of a mother letting her son down by not picking him up on time after school. I know what you’re saying, if it takes so little to make a psychopath, then why aren’t there more of them? There are, to some degree or another. It’s just that for some reason or another people are stronger than we give them credit for. They will build defense mechanisms to protect their hearts before they totally give up and wilt away. That’s why so many people have problems like trust issues, but aren’t psychopaths. Because it take repeated abuse over a long period of time before the heart will stop defending and a psychopath develops. / I write about this because when I was younger I thought I was a psychopath. / Because of all the dark thoughts and wishes I had. But I had never stopped caring about other people. I just stopped allowing myself to trust them. Giving me the wonderful title of having “trust issues”. / I don’t trust in a lot of things. I don’t trust people to be honest with me, because I’ve caught them in so many lies. I don’t trust them to be trully nice to me, because it seems that is not human nature. I don’t trust those who care about me to even really care about me. I don’t trust myself and I certainly don’t trust anyone else. / I guess that about sums it up. I don’t even trust in compliments that people give me. I always think there is something behind it. I guess you could call me the low level conspiracy theorist, although I don’t believe the gov’t. is out to get us. / I just remembering a dream I had had not too long ago. I dreamt I was flying in space with God. It’s funny that so much of my writing ends up being spiritual, when I am in constant battle with my beliefs everyday. I dream that I am with God, and I feel wonderful. I feel connected, and full of love and hope. Like everything was okay, and was going to be okay. It was a great feeling and when I woke up, I felt like I had been in the presence of God. Becauase I felt like what it felt to not have Him there. / For me, psychologically speaking I would need a belief in God. I never had a father, and the only father figure I did have, has been repeatedly beaten down verbally since his death. I thought that once you died all problems died with you. I certainly have held no grudges against those of my family and friends after they died. And I only mention them in good terms. But the man I looked up to and held as the only man who ever loved me, was told to me never really loved me at all. So how does that sit with me? It’s okay, I don’t believe what’s said of him. But since I never had a great father who was perfect, and to love totally. It only seems natural that I would be drawn to an all knowing all loving ultimate being of creation. lol / Anyways, I have a confession to make. I’m an addict. Wow. I can’t believe I said that out loud,. Once more I am putting it in writing. Phew! I guess the hard part is over. Now I just have to come clean. That’s going to be the hard part. Quitting it. / But it was like fate or God, or whatever, was speaking to me today when I went to get my addiction fixed and I broke it. I’m sure you’re asking what it is I am addicted to. / Well, I am a very open person but I’m not that open. I don’t know if I am even going to post this…I don’t know, can I trust you not to laugh at me?...

  Hi Claire: It is mommy. I hope to hear from you soon. I am not feeling well today as always. Actually I am feeling very bad. I have a hard time even painting and you know how much I love painting. I decided to send you one example of the abuse I am subjected to every day, the mind games. I could write you a whole encyclopedia set, but for now we will keep it simple mostly because I do not feel good enough even to sit here at the computer and type this to you. The people (the police) who keep me in this place refer to my body as a building, that is because they have made it a building by not finishing it, leaving a hole in by body intentionally. They have trapped me in this building by not giving me health care, something I need not want. They try to force me into relationships to finish the building, (my body). They refuse to restore my health. They use the bathrooms to torture me with mind games. They say things like they have to use the toilet and then they look at me. That is just one example, they do all kinds of stuff with the rooms —the kitchen, the bathrooms, and the fixtures of the building all the time to demean and degrade me. Like when I first came here and they put me in a bed under a plumbing fixture that had red paint smeared all over it (like blood). They think they can do anything to me and they do. They constantly threaten me and make me live in pain. They constantly play mind games. They took the door off the bathroom yesterday and then one of the people who works here waited until I was eating my food on the stairs (they use food and eating all the time too, because eating refers to the infection in my body) and he came over with another guy and started telling him how he wanted him to SCREW the door. He said just take it out and SCREW IT. It is very hard to prove they are doing these things on purpose because they are always indirect and cowardly, (anyone with courage would just be direct, but they are doing them on purpose and they do everyday). They always play these kind of demeaning games. How do you think this effects me as a human being? How do you think it impacts you to have them constantly sexually demeaning me and making me live in fear like this? Do you think this has an impact on you as a person as well? The answer is yes, everything they do to hurt and demean me, hurts you. As I write this the infection in my abdomen swirls around in pain. I can feel the bacteria crawling around in me eating at my insides. Would you treat your dog like this? No, of course not. That is my example for today of what I have to endure every day over and over endlessly. I want to talk to you about normal things like how you are doing in school, how you are feeling, what is going on in your life and etc…but is very hard for me because of what I have to endure by the nasty people who think it is a game to torture me. They do not care about you Claire, or Mitchell, or they would not endlessly abuse me. Like the guy standing by the nurses station the other day that said loudly as I walked by that he got a job at the DOLLAR store. This was an insult to me as are all of their other daily insults. I am so ill, but this alone is not enough for them, they have to constantly keep at me with the mental insults. And this has hurt me as well. It has made me afraid and changed my personality and actions. I am not the same person that I was thirteen years ago. I used to be so loving and trusting—- Please write to me soon, because I do want to know about how are doing, and how school is going, and etc…and I also want to know what you think about the examples I am going to send you every day of my life and the way these people treat me, and the impact it has on me, you and Mitchell, and anyone else I might choose to love in the future. They are very shameful people. I love you both very much. I am going to go now. I miss you and Mitchell very much. Love forever and Always. Mommy.
