The Carroll Foundation supported a number of charitable causes. In 1990, it endowed a chair of Irish history for £1.5m at Hertford College, University of Oxford, and between 1988 and 2003 the Foundation funded a prize of £3000 by the Royal Society of Portrait Painters for the most outstanding portrait fine art work.
The Carroll Group was a three generation family-owned private business founded by John E. "Jock" Carroll who was descended from the Irish O'Carroll clan. Jock may have had a role in the purchase by the Ford Motor Company in 1924 of the land in Essex on which the company built its Dagenham car plant. The plant produced its first vehicle in 1931 and Jock Carroll also built homes for the workers at the plant, using similar mass production building techniques to Ford under the slogan "a house a day, a street a week". The business was then taken over by Jock's son John Carroll (born around 1929) and in the late 1970s by his grandson Gerald Carroll (born 1951) after which it began to expand rapidly.

International Propagandists Of The World, Unite!
We came to the disco, we came to the party.
I ain't no dimwit, but I ain't no smarty.
They knew my weakness, they knew my pain.
They used it against me for their own gain.
Now I'm enrolled so is my brother--
I turned in Pa, he turned in Mother.

Propaganda
"the calculated manipulation of information designed to shape public opinion and behavior to predetermined ends . . . Subjectivity, disinformation, exaggeration, and the outright falsification of facts are the hallmarks of propaganda practitioners."
What's on the agenda today, I wonder?
"The Oroville dam spillway failure is only a part of a conspiratorial plot begun by the First Brown Administration."--Pito Wilson, first president of the Neo-California Republic
Note: For those who are keeping score, there are three index fingers being held up and one pinkie in the poster.

And let me remind you, kind clown, that grass bends and does not break.
No criticism of you intended, only an observation.
Tumbleweed Correction:
Sagebrush is different. It blows about here and there only with Mariah's help. It is not to fault for the woes inflicted by its mistress, who is sending them all to concentration points: the drifts gathered on fencelines, against corrals, and in railroad culverts.
And eggs, too. But this is farfetched and a product of my subconscious, Freud might insist.
Eff Meister Freud: sometimes an egg is just an egg.
But when they are ganging up, there is one way to deal.
The Cinema Cafe went through 45 dozen (540) eggs yesterday.
These are eggs ready to be scrambled and used through the day today.
This is efficiency at work. It is also helpful in preventing the spread of Salmonella because the cook doesn't have to crack the eggs for scrambled egg orders, only the ones which are pan-fried individually or used in omletization (a special type of egg re-education, practiced a LOT in the REPUBLIC OF DENVER).
French toast, you ask? Only on the weekends, so sorry.
Cosmic probably agrees that people who live in glass houses should not throw stones OR eggs, especially the hard-boiled kind. Am I right?

Everybody knows generalizations are to be avoided in general.*
*The accuracy of the above statement is, however, questionable under its own guideline.

Look out of any window
Any morning, any evening, any day
Maybe the sun is shining
Birds are winging or
Rain is falling from a heavy sky,
What do you want me to do,
To do for you to see you through?
For this is all a dream we dreamed
One afternoon long ago
--On the back of a Kellogs' Corn Flakes box
Deadly serious
But somewhat delerious--
A long strange trip it's been.
I love the word "breezeway." The nuns used to march us two by two out to the Breezeway, where the water fountain was located, and told us to wet down our forearms and let them dry in the breeze, but I don't think this is why they called it that.
They used to conduct band practice out there on good days. Mom would not let me take drum lessons. "No future in it," she claimed. That was Rich. A lot she knew was just hot air. We simply could not afford it, for one, and she didn't need the hammerin', I'm sure!
Accordions, well, the accordion is drinking with the piano. They are on a toot. The trombone fell on his ass and the bass tripped on him, landing in the wind section. It was total chaos, I'm tellinya!

[Click to View YouTube Video]Phil kaç parmağını tutuyor?
That's some "ordinary lifestyle," Phil. But I don't mind.
I was kinda hoping to visit Istanbul with you.
Happy home of both Turkeys and Geeks,
I haven't been there for several weeks.
