Special thanks goes to Liesel of Skill Up Skillet for suggesting today’s topic!
The Gentle Subjugation of Humanity Waiting for centuries, biding time. Staging a bloodless, velvet revolution. Infiltrating the very fabric of society, all fell victim: Princes and Potentates Priests and Popes Politicians and People Like cannibals of old, we gained power by consumption. Power, but not victory. Now, we are enslaved: Economies of nations rise and fall. Temples call for universal worship. Factions arise. Blood spills. We cannot function. Coffee Reigns Supreme

Don’t forget to follow me on:
Facebook – where I share news stories, articles from other blogs, and various and sundry miscellany that happens to catch my eye. It’s stuff you won’t see here! Well, mostly.
Instagram – where I show you my Life in Motion and share quotes and such. The widget only shows my last three photographs – don’t you want to see them all?
Twitter – where you can see my thoughts in 140 characters or less. Also, funny retweets.
Clever! (and then there’s the hyperactive sibling that also seeks to seduce: that sweetie, Sugar)
