A few weeks ago I introduced the book, The 48 Laws of Power. I gave you two laws with examples of how they can be useful. Today I will give you two more nuggets of wisdom.
Recently I have realized the importance of these next laws. I have had 3 new bosses in the last couple months. I have applied both of with my newest boss that seems to want to bother with me.
CONTROL THE OPTIONS: GET OTHERS TO PLAY WITH THE CARDS YOU DEAL.
The best deceptions are the ones that seem to give the other person a choice: Your victims feel they are in control, but are actually your puppets. Give people options that come out in your favor whichever one they choose. Force them to make choices between the lesser of two evils, both of which serve your purpose. Put them on the horns a dilemma: They are gored wherever they turn.
THINK AS YOU LIKE BUT BEHAVE LIKE OTHERS
I you make a show of going against the times, flaunting your unconventional ideas and unorthodox ways, people will think that you only want attention and that you look down upon them. They will find a way to punish you for making them feel inferior. It is far safer to blend in and nurture the common touch. Share your originality only with tolerant friends and those who are sure to appreciate your uniqueness.
The lessons I learned in using these laws are that every boss likes to talk. So instead of arguing like I normally would, I asked for her opinion. I need to learn to keep my mouth shut, because I can be a wise ass, especially when I feel like I’m smarter than my brother.

What's the Cost of FREEDOM?
Rendition is a new suspense thriller coming out this Friday. According Wikipedia, Extraordinary rendition and irregular rendition are terms used to describe the extrajudicial transfer of a person from one state to another, and the term Torture by proxy is used by some critics to describe extraordinary rendition by the United States, with regard to the alleged transfer of suspected terrorists to countries known to employ harsh interrogation techniques that may rise to the level of torture. The point of this article is not to promote the movie, but to raise an important question… What is the cost of freedom?
In this day and age terrorist attacks can happen anywhere at anytime. Terrorism is a matter of viewpoint. 9/11 was a terrible thing but how different is that than some of the things the US and other democratic Christian countries have done?
In the Bay of Pigs we funded and participated in with the “rebels" to over the Castro Cuba. From family that are navy seals and in other stealth government agencies; we have called politicians in small countries demand certain Pro-US actions or he would be killed. These conversations often occur when a team of navy seals are in the politician compounds with orders to kill them.
Whether you agree or disagree with the current war, it was the first of its kind. It was marketed to the masses through new teams on the ground streaming live footage.
Many things go into your freedom one of things are the killing of those that threaten it.
Would you rather know and see what your freedom cost or would prefer ignorance and go back to watching reality TV with a light heart?

Case of the Mondays
Its Monday... If you frequent my blog you understand what Monday means. If you are new you may be wandering what will cure your case of the Mondays? Well its ME THE ASS, I am the cure for your boring uneventful Mondays. Its ASK THE ASS MONDAYS.
No topic is off limits, ASK of the ASS what you like, but understand the answer you may not like. LET'S BEGIN
Jim - Does Anal Hurt?
I'm a man, so I don't know... But let me put this broom stick up you ASS and let the readers know next week.
Euros Vs. Dollars Would I live in India?
The Dollar will always be king, because the strength of every other economy is based on how much they sell to America. I would like to have homes on every part of the world, especially the parts that would make it financially benefitual for me to live there.
Girly Girl - Who is Jim?
Jim is an older gentleman, that is in love with a lady named Mary (who doesn't love him). He also is starting to fall in love with a female in India. Probably he wants to move there.
Ticia - When a man grabs your hand and holds it - what should you be thinking?
Well think whatever you like, whatever makes you feel good. Its a form of flirting.

Politicians - For Sale - Buy 1 Get 1 FREE!!!!!
A few years ago America was outraged of a Middle Eastern company, Dubai Port World, being in charge our ports. I’m sure most of you heard about and maybe you even wrote your Senator. I’m bringing this up, because Congress lead the way with public outrage shut down the deal. An American company was quickly found to take over the ports.
Politicians are simply puppets control by the strings of money. This year Dubai just purchased 20% of NASDAQ, the American stock exchange and also will take control of their stake in London Stock Exchange. Now how come no Congress man is on TV screaming “Outrage!!”?
Well this time Dubai spent almost $10 million between 3 Lobbying companies to get your politicians to give the deal a thumbs up. Politicians, merry puppets, spend time criticizing each other for passing laws or business deals for their fundraisers; but they all seem to sell out to the highest bidder.
Do you think it is dangerous to have politicians that are indebted servants of special interest groups, rather the “people?” And if you believe it is dangerous, what is solution for our elections? For the last, 10 or more US presidents, they have raised the most amount of money, and the “people” are not the ones funding them.
