Smoke and mirrors... how human that is...

Everyone knows (I really don't like that phrase) that humans are mammals and therefore animals. Which is almost true, but humans are different. Really different. Science keeps trying to make us one with all other life, but we are really different. One of the biggest differences is thinking and creating - art and music.

Thinking is bigger than you think. But thinking allows thoughts about self and what one can't do, can do, and want to do. That brings up - there must be something beyond me that I should be able to influence in my direction or favor. Yep, and that is where we fall down from just other animals. Being a guy, I will concentrate on fight or flee. An animal will just do it - one or the other, without thought, and man will attempt to think it over.... and then find help.

Our religious institutions and political systems are designed to find you help for everything you never thought about. Honestly. With all our lively activities the government and the religious institutions will attempt to control your activity for your benefit... or they need another puff of smoke or another mirror in their illusion to make you comfortable.

There are some realities in the universe that I will share, you may have run into them before.

Gravity works, it isn't controlled by government nor the pastor.

Love is better than money - and love is only possible when one gives self to other than.

Science is finding a truth about a thought, and how you feel isn't science, nor are 'experts' scientists, although a scientific method may help them find a sharper thought to use.

Maternity and paternity are impossible to balance in a homosexual partnership, and such a partnership will not be fertile - although the participants could be wonderfully happy and loving.

Because I exist, I have no right to mess up your existence - I will pretend you believe that, too, just don't push it - or the relationship between us may end in one's end of existence.

And if I knew only as little as I did yesterday I would have stopped thinking, and testing and trying. My mother would have told you that I was always trying.

Obese Earl, yep, I too am a failure...

Seriously, I am not very good - and am not using the best my parents gave in genetic material, nurturing and good old fashioned raising me with love and discipline. I didn't learn everything the teachers and guidance counselors had to offer, didn't learn and use everything the military taught me, and when stuck I had to invent a way to get unstuck, really. Government and churches, other folks that cared or just wanted to mess with me have not made me what I am - again, stuck with. Time to find the way out?

But then, I haven't a tattoo, a pierced anything, or scars I don't regret but needed at the time. I could name all the women I have loved, and lost, and the one that won my heart so long ago. I have been drunk, have been high, have been low and don't want to do any of those fool things every again... and not all of them were caused by organic or chemical substances used or abused. I like to think I am wonderfully boring.

Noticed again that the culture is spinning faster than I can get on or get off, the economy isn't good, the government only pretends to be - and History won't survive the entertainment value. Y'all take care out there and find your loves, and work that. For I fear that others will try to ruin it for their own needs. go with God.

Just goofing off...

Still having trouble with the Korean cable, too high, too near the radio towers, bleed over from stuff in the air. I am frustrated. I think about all those people everywhere that have been wearing their foil hats to protect their brains from the aliens, or government radio frequency monitoring. So I go and get a long large piece of aluminum foil and just place it between the cable connection and the tower with the bleed over. Immediately I have again a perfect picture and sound. Now I wonder if I should sheath the entire house with foil, and protect what little mind I have left.

Death by recliner and remote control...

I was once young and skinny, strong and brave - and I read everything interesting... once an.  Like most boys I grew up and into manhood. Which was defined by my father and other older men around me, teachers, uncles, preachers, neighbors and television -- and all the books I was still reading. So, I grew up to the point my father no longer used his belt on me, he would talk to me and reach me, mostly. To me I could see the early Americans growing older, experienced and feeling ready for independence and getting on with Life.

I had many great years of doing all the stuff I wanted, and my duties and family permitted and began to feel like it could never change. Again, just like my country, the United States of America.  See where I am going?
I could be wonderful and most perfect for years and years, but I was already slipping into bad habits that would need corrected, medicated and cut away. The body doesn't perform the same, the mind wanders, and one gets weaker   but you ignore a reality because everyone marvels at how much more you are doing than they... just like our country.

Then one day, you are really OLD, and can't do what was normal - just a three mile jog was impossible. How does that happen? More doctors, more medicines, more body falling apart - being a super anything is a joke. But you can be nice, and you can adjust... Just waiting for the day of your destruction.

I bought a fitness book long ago and far away. The Royal Canadian Air Force Exercise Plans for Physical Fitness, for a dollar. This edition was 1962 and it was never taxing enough for me to do more than just read it. Well, now I have decided to start on Chart 1, and go through all the Charts until I can't. I need that to build back from where my recliner and age have put me... always someone else's fault isn't it? The country needs exactly the same treatment, tough love, and take care of only the important things. No more lovely buildings for courts... no more Big Bird financed by money borrowed from China.  Get out of the recliner and back on the track, back into work and living and loving.

So what did you notice in the dark?

That it is difficult to see without light.

In the debate I did notice that Governor Romney said the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were the documents with American ideals. Mostly, the Constitution is praised but politicians don't much pay attention to the Declaration of Independence - that whole thing about sending agents strikes them as a great idea, not something to change a government over.

Today's lesson was that the cable is running radio frequencies, certain numbers are at the limits, loose connections will pick up stuff from the towers everywhere, and compromise the cable box ability to broadcast clearly the desired programs... it is all Bush's fault.

In my preparation for the End of THE world As WE know it. Be good, do good, and speak good well. That should work with the sane. Anyone that seeks to force folks to do anything, is either their parent or a thug. Thug elimination is a duty.

No longer a survivor... I am meat... prey... and gone

I started reading Patriots by James Wesley Rawles, and find it takes them to page 216 to finally get a pair of breeding rabbits, the pellet guns get mentions long after the rest of the arsenal is listed, most of which are high speed low drag, and the book is interesting but mostly for what it misses way too early about preparing for the end...

So today, my wife - she who must be obeyed - comes to me to complain about our cable service. Seems that her KO-AM can't stop freezing or blocking or making a mess. Getting a technician means he gets to tell me to disconnect the cables and re-attach them, which works a bit, then the problem returns and my frustration level rises to the point of my wanting to fix the whole problem, just dump the cable. In video and DVD alone I will never have to be bothered again, and have fine entertainment.

You do realize this post is about dropping out of the United State of America. Seems the people we elect, keep enriching themselves and the chosen few, and putting the country into decline and debt. If they loved us they wouldn't do it, but then they never said they loved us, did they? I feel very much as a citizen, like the cable customer that can't get any satisfaction from the cable company - although I will now be getting a service appointment, 8-10 tomorrow. For those that still think that America can pull out of the economic mess, which is not really what the Constitutions says it is supposed to do.

I am going to go eat my morning gruel, then walk a long way away from this home, where the atmosphere has been poisoned by the NEED for stupid entertainment, not having a life worthy of note.

Oktober, the eighth Roman month... Fall sprung...

Although the Halloween stuff is hanging around, the weather has been delaying the true Fall, but then as I buried the plant food for next year I noticed a couple of branches of change worth sharing, for their beauty.

I found a couple of great depressing videos on You Tube, won't link, but they are out there. Since the new World Order isn't trying to be defined or exposed - they only want to be in control. I won't attempt to frighten you in to futile resistance. I just continue to encourage your breaking free of the chains, and the fool Change, independent humans are totally expendable if you depend on slaves for your sustenance.


 Above : Fall in reds

There are many things I find worth being part of -- a loving relationship, a lot of loving relationships, organizations that do good things for the best of reasons, and expending your courage as well as your love. Those like muscle tissue only get stronger with use... not abuse.

To the right: Fall in green to yellows.



Don't forget the celebrations of November and December:

Election of 6 November, Thanksgiving that they didn't pick you for any of the thankless tasks, Christmas for knowing that real Saviors come into the world with only the angels singing and shepherds on watch. Now I know that being giving people you are going to expend your best in celebrations for those that you love and that love you... just remember it isn't only on a few days of the year you must make bankers and merchants and experts enriched by your commerce. And hugs and hand holding keeps one warm longer than some heat pad.
