Get the Plebology mug.plowology...noun:a deliberate way of life, defined by but not exclusively limited to an appreciation of the ironic, innate, spirituality of the deep south and committment to the only things that are true...peace, love & bbq. Accidentally discovered, by Americana artist John "Hound" Brown, along with his deceased brother, Glenn Edwin Brown,circa 1987,somewhere on Interstate 40 west, just east of Winston Salem, North carolina. While in the midst of driving & meditating to the Allman Brothers, the two Brown brothers experienced a deep vision in which the solution to all the world's were revealed to them. In exchange for this ancient spiritual knowledge, Glenn & Hound were chosen to descend into the bowels of hell, releasing Robert Johnson's soul and delivering the Boogeyman to his rightful fate..and told to write literature and record songs that planted the seeds of Plowology. ON December 17th, 2007, older brother Glenn was called to return to his creator at approximately 8:15 pm eastern time, where he resides in the rhythym section of the Allstar Plowology Band on the Southern side of Heaven, top level nearest the Sun & Duane Allman. Younger brother, John "Hound" Brown continues this work, Plowology...and continues to share the wisdom of , "Peace, Love & BBQ." For more info visit, www.plowology.com, google plowology, go to myspace, facebook..or better yet...invite some strangers in need in your home...cook them dinner...play music for & with them...and care for their needs. Plowology is the beginning, becoming a plowologist requires the simplest of committments, which in turn makes it so difficult. To love unconditionally, give the very shirt off your back...and always share your BBQ.

Get the plowology mug.Penology is a section of criminology that deals with the philosophy and practice of various societies in their attempts to repress criminal activities, and satisfy public opinion via an appropriate treatment regime for persons convicted of criminal offenses.
Penology is concerned with the effectiveness of those social processes devised and adopted for the prevention of crime, via the repression or inhibition of criminal intent via the fear of punishment. The study of penology therefore deals with the treatment of prisoners and the subsequent rehabilitation of convicted criminals. It also encompasses aspects of probation (rehabilitation of offenders in the community) as well as penitentiary science relating to the secure detention and retraining of offenders committed to secure institutions.

Penology concerns many topics and theories, including those concerning prisons (prison reform, prisoner abuse, prisoners' rights, and recidivism), as well as theories of the purposes of punishment (deterrence, retribution, incapacitation and rehabilitation). Contemporary penology concerns itself mainly with criminal rehabilitation and prison management. The word seldom applies to theories and practices of punishment in less formal environments such as parenting, school and workplace correctional measures.

Get the penology mug.Theory of and belief in the importance and power of play. Even just a 20 minute daily playcation can reduce stress, release healthy endorphins into the body, increase joy, smiles, laughter, can fine tune motor skills, expand the imagination, and create great memories.
These powers of play make an individual life and the world a better place, as the power of play is transcendent to all beings, regardless of age, number of legs or paws, type of fur or hair, ears, teeth, tongue, sex, color, DNA, history or heritage.
Playologists, are evolved, free, positive, happy, playful beings, who relate to the world and one another in a universal language of smiles and laughter.

Escaping the major reality for a personally time-determined playcation of excellent, healthy, sweaty and/or creative, pretend play with your favorite toy or game, you crack yourselves up, become addicted to the endorphin rush and vow yourselves playologists. See...your imagination is expanding already.
