This is an attempt to put together bits and pieces of our fragmented American social world based on our national historical past and some of our personal experiences. It is also an attempt for any reader to focus on self and the burdens of consciousness and expectations placed on the person, mediated by patterns of adulterated media communications. Our willy-nilly force-fed meals are events deemed critical for our intake, consumption, and understanding. As we ingest or take them in (from whatever source) as living truths, they begin to dictate the strange and divergent paths that each of us has chosen or feel compulsively to live-out, willy-nilly- perceiving, thinking, doing, or acting with an attitude.

The historical fragments delivered in this book, both personal and public, falls under the breadth and rubric of the United States Constitution: If you are still interested in living well in these United States of Affairs or elsewhere, the facts, and events enumerated in this treatise cannot be overlooked or ignored.
