A debate was held today and people who hate Trump say he lost it. And People who like Clinton say she won it. Except there are a lot of people who feel Trump won it. Trump won the debate. He addressed the issues that matter. Clinton did not. Clinton desperately claimed she stood on her record. She says she will not change anything. She also says she will spend much more on health care and education, making university study free. But she promised she would not increase debt and she promised not to raise taxes. And nobody has taken her to task for that. That suggests a fix by media insiders. It got worse. Trump declared he would unleash US business interests by lowering tax and raising GDP. A 4% growth would be possible, and 6% is achievable. The moderator scoffed at that. Hillary raised Trump's criticism of Reagan. Trump correctly pointed out that he supported some of Reagan's policies, and disagreed with others. But no one at the debate, or analysing it, twigged to Trump's policies being Reagan like, with increased defence spending and supporting industry, while Clinton's is like Carter's policy of wealth redistribution.

A fact check held by CNN post debate took Trump to task for claiming that illegal immigrants are not vetted before coming to USA. CNN said that there were rigorous checks, some taking more than a year. What CNN misunderstood was the difference between a refugee and and someone who employs a pirate to get them smuggled into USA. Illegal immigrants are not vetted, even though CNN's fact check unit believes they are. Maybe it is worthwhile asking the CNN unit to tell us which state department vets illegal immigrants before they arrive in USA and why it is that that department is not communicating their discoveries with other departments of government.

Meanwhile, before the debate, Fox news had an article on people paid over a thousand dollars benefits from ObamaCare for procedures, but these people were dead and the procedures have never been done. We have been told that some $350k has been lost this way, but assured it isn't much. But it highlights something really disturbing for Hillary Clinton. Dead people are a sizeable minority, and she is denying them regular access to medical care. They vote for her, and she denies them, taking them for granted. It doesn't pass the sniff test. Just like the Clinton Foundation's use of Haiti as a source of profit. Exploiting the poorest for personal gain is a very bad low. ALP do it in Australia through their union arm for slush funds, but no one is accusing Clinton of that. Why would they? Only, if they were dead, they could still vote for her, and access health care too. And as the money leaves USA, it wouldn't increase the debt. So she says.

I suggest Red Gum ward vote for David Daniel Ball. And, after asking your local councillor about their views on Trump, Same Sex Marriage and Greyhounds, try and find out what it is they will do to make garbage collection cheaper and more efficient. Ask how they will make business more profitable. Ask what they will do to help address crime. Ask what they will do to improve public transport issues locally.

Jingle Bell Rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

Intro to Locals for the Conservative Voice

David Daniel Ball calls himself the Conservative Voice.

I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.

I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections.

I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. ...

The Wanderer and three Goanna

How can we, like Jupurrurla, balance our curiosity with respect for the boundaries of others and our environment, making amends when needed to strengthen our communities and honor our shared heritage? Like comment and subscribe. I read all comments

English Folk Song: The Wanderer and the Three Goannas

Lyrics (Based on the Warlpiri Story):

(Verse 1)
In the Tanami’s glow, where the spinifex sways,
Jupurrurla roamed through the desert’s warm days.
Her curious heart found a camp in the shade,
Where three goannas’ coolamons a feast had arrayed.

(Chorus)
Oh, the wanderer bold, ‘neath the starlit sky’s gleam,
Met the three goannas in the Desert’s dream.
With a heart full of truth, she learned to amend,
Wove the land and its kin in a song without end.

(Verse 2)
Father’s tomatoes sharp, Mother’s ants far too sweet,
But Little Goanna’s wattle warmed her heart’s beat.
On their mats she tried rest—too rough, then too slick—
Till the small one’s weave held her dreams soft and quick.

(Chorus)
Oh, the wanderer bold, ‘neath the starlit sky’s gleam,
Met the three goannas in the Desert’s dream.

America Party, Star Spangled Visionaries?

I'm a little disappointed with my video. I couldn't put in the images I curated. But I stand by it. I am contributing to the debate over America Party. I'm a MAGA supporter always preferred GOP, despise RINO. I likely will never vote AP, but I welcome their existance in US Democracy, noting Dem's have utterly failed.

If the Democrat party is a corrupt, and ultimately spent force, what replaces it? Should we wait for a head to grow back? Or, should we look back to the vision of Jefferson and Adams? What is your preference for the future? I read all comments. Please like and subscribe.

Below is a prog rock song in the style of Emerson, Lake & Palmer, characterized by grandiose lyrical imagery, complex narrative structure, and a blend of theatrical pomp with driving rhythms and intricate keyboard flourishes. The song, titled "Star-Spangled Visionaries," celebrates the America Party led by Elon Musk as an alternative to a corrupt Democratic establishment, draws parallels to the Jefferson-Adams ...

Celebrating Big Beautiful Bill

Independence Day is a time for celebration. Here are some of the things this bill does. Doesnt it feel good to stop corruption and instead pay for what is needed? --- ### Ballad of the Big Beautiful Bill

Verse 1 Oh, gather 'round, ye hearts of cheer, this Independence Day, The Big Beautiful Bill has passed, and swept the rot away! No more the corrupt shall feast on bribes, their pockets lined with greed, The poor and lost now claim their due, their aid secured with speed.

Chorus Sing hallelujah, raise the flag, let freedom’s anthem soar, The truth has triumphed, justice reigns, from shore to shining shore! With open hearts and fearless dreams, we’ll build a world anew, The Bill has freed our spirits bold, and hope comes shining through!

Verse 2 The pharma lords, with wicked schemes, no longer spread their lies, Diseases sown for profit’s gain now wither 'neath our eyes. No more shall global bodies fake a warming doom’s decree, Fossil fuels, abundant, cheap, will power liberty!

Ballad of Jampijinpa: A Warlpiri Dreamtime Bambi in the Tanami Desert

Journey to the Tanami Desert with the Ballad of Jampijinpa, a Warlpiri Jukurrpa retelling of Bambi. Follow Jampijinpa, a young red kangaroo, as he learns the sacred laws of his Country from Napangardi, faces dangers like the machine’s shadow, and rises as a leader under the Seven Sisters’ stars. This Dreamtime story celebrates Warlpiri culture, resilience, and connection to the land. Comment your favorite Indigenous story below! Subscribe for more Warlpiri tales and join my Locals for exclusive Jukurrpa insights.
The story of Bambi is, for many, their first encounter with profound loss. Writing this story in Warlpiri Dreamtime, Tanami Desert context. Loss is part of life, yet life goes on. But, a good life, serving the community is also important. How do Indigenous stories like Jampijinpa’s inspire you?
 
Notes on the Adaptation: Setting and Characters: The Tanami Desert replaces the forest, with native animals (red kangaroo, dingo, mallee fowl, perentie) as characters, reflecting the local ecology. Warlpiri skin names (Jampijinpa, Napangardi, etc.) root the characters in kinship systems, central to Warlpiri identity. Jukurrpa: The Dreamtime frames the story as a sacred narrative, where loss and growth are part of the land’s law. The “shadow” (a machine) nods to modern intrusions like mining, a real threat in the Tanami, but keeps the story timeless. Themes: Bambi’s coming-of-age becomes a journey of learning country and law, emphasizing Warlpiri values of responsibility and connection. The mother’s death and the fire echo Bambi’s trials but are grounded in desert realities. Cultural Respect: I avoided inventing sacred details or mimicking restricted Warlpiri stories, focusing on universal elements (land, kinship, survival) informed by public Warlpiri narratives, like those shared in art or ethnographies.
 
The Ballad of Jampijinpa In Tanami’s heart where the spinifex sways, ‘Neath the Jukurrpa’s first starlit blaze, The ancestors carved from the red desert’s hand, Young Jampijinpa, to guard sacred land.
Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, with bounds swift and free, Carry the law of your country’s decree. Through sand and through sorrow, your spirit will roam, In the Tanami’s dreaming, you’ll always find home.
Napangardi taught him the desert’s old ways, Where soakages shimmer through blistering days. The bilby’s soft tracks led to yams in the ground, And the wind whispered tales when no rain could be found. With Jangala, dingo, he leaped o’er the plain, While Nungarrayi tidied the earth’s ancient pain. The oaks sang of patience, the elders stood near, Their ochre-lit eyes guiding young kangaroo’s fear. But dawn brought a shadow, a roar cold as stone, A machine’s cruel hunger tore flesh from the bone. Napangardi fell, her spirit took flight, To the ancestors’ campfire in the starwoven night.
Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, with bounds swift and free, Carry the law of your country’s decree. Through sand and through sorrow, your spirit will roam, In the Tanami’s dreaming, you’ll always find home.
Alone, he wandered, his heart like a stone, The sand stung his eyes, and the silence did moan. But Japangardi rose, scales gleaming bright, “You’re never lost, son, in the Jukurrpa’s light.” The bilby taught digging, the oak whispered peace, Nungarrayi scratched paths where the stories increase. Jangala’s yips brought a laugh to the blaze, And Jampijinpa grew strong through the desert’s hard days. Then Nakamarra, with dawn in her gaze, Danced by his side through the sandhills’ soft maze. But fire returned, born of shadow’s old sin, Yet Jampijinpa led kin to the soakage within.
Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, with bounds swift and free, Carry the law of your country’s decree. Through sand and through sorrow, your spirit will roam, In the Tanami’s dreaming, you’ll always find home.
Atop the red dune, his shadow stretched far, A keeper of law ‘neath the desert’s bright star. The elders now sing from their camp in the sky, And Jampijinpa’s tracks never fade, never die.
Final Chorus: Oh, Jampijinpa, your story’s been spun, A thread in the Jukurrpa, forever begun. The Tanami dreams, and its stars softly call, For the kangaroo’s heart that will never grow small.
