I took a vacation for the first time in 4years, and it was
FANTASTIC


Now.... back 2 bidnezzz ....

A nice poem for a change

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental
To reach for another is to risk involvement
To expose your ideas, your dreams, before a crowd is to risk loss.
To love is to risk not being loved in return
To live is to risk dying
To believe is to risk failure
But risk must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing
The people who risk nothing do nothing, have nothing, and are nothing
They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live
Chained by their attitudes, they are slaves; they have forfeited their freedom
Only a person who risk is free.

“The urge to save humanity is almost always a false-face for the urge to rule it.”

—H. L. Mencken

WAR IS A RACKET

"Yes, they are getting ready for another war. Why shouldn't they? It pays high dividends.

But what does it profit the men who are killed? What does it profit their mothers and sisters, their wives and their sweethearts? What does it profit their children?

What does it profit anyone except the very few to whom war means huge profits?

Yes, and what does it profit the nation?

Take our own case. Until 1898 we didn't own a bit of territory outside the mainland of North America. At that time our national debt was a little more than $1,000,000,000. Then we became "internationally minded." We forgot, or shunted aside, the advice of the Father of our country. We forgot George Washington's warning about "entangling alliances." We went to war. We acquired outside territory. At the end of the World War period, as a direct result of our fiddling in international affairs, our national debt had jumped to over $25,000,000,000. Our total favorable trade balance during the twenty-five-year period was about $24,000,000,000. Therefore, on a purely bookkeeping basis, we ran a little behind year for year, and that foreign trade might well have been ours without the wars.

It would have been far cheaper (not to say safer) for the average American who pays the bills to stay out of foreign entanglements. For a very few this racket, like bootlegging and other underworld rackets, brings fancy profits, but the cost of operations is always transferred to the people – who do not profit."

A Tiny Gargantuan Part of The Puzzle

Bye Bye Dollar.

It was nice knowing you, well actually not really. I keep hearing from the die hards that the american economy can turn around. I keep hearing that it is in the interest of foreign countries to support a strong dollar. Why? Don't they consume as well as produce? Why do they need to keep taking American I.O.U.'s in exchange for REAL products of REAL value? To support the U.S. stock market at this point would be international welfare.

Is there even an American economy to turn around? I have the impression that there is no real economy left in the U.S. . I have the impression that what most overeducated analysts keep refering to as the American economy, is in reality, the american line of credit with foreigners. Well shit numbnuts, you gotta pay back what you borrow at some point!

I now shit myself from laughter every time I hear the term service based economy.

I roll around on the floor gasping for air from the fits of laughter when I hear that a low dollar will be good for exports. What exports! All the factories are in Mexico and China!!!

I keep hearing the word recession batted around. Fuck recession, it's 8 years late to start speaking of recession. Welcome to Depression 2.0.

Hey, central banks of the world, please go fuck yourselves.

Sneaky Bugger

It has been said that the greatest trick the devil ever played was to convince mankind that he didn't exist, perhaps this is so. I am more of the opinion that the greatest trick he ever played on mankind is to convice him that he can change the world by working within the system. You do not change Satan's system, Satan's system changes you.

No rodent problems around here.

An old epiphany...

The means determine the ends.

Are your conclusions rational?

I've been watching the value of worlwide currencies decline in purchasing power since I bought my first pack of bubble gum. I've been watching people lose whatever their faith was and turn it over to people, mainly politicians.

Here is a newsflash, from diaper training to writing exams, to building wealth, life does not get easier, ever. If your life is getting easier as you age, you're just getting older, not growing older.

So what is the condition of modern man? He can't trust what he eats, what he buys, who he deals with professionally, who he votes for, his educators, his physicians and so on. So who can he trust? God that's who. I can honestly state that my God has never failed me. My god has never allowed fire to not be hot, nor ice to not be cold, nor gravitey to pull me AWAY from the earth. He set the program in motion aeons ago and it's still going, untill it stops that is. All programs terminate at some point. Human DNA software has a termination point and all the loops medicine can add won't make a difference, because the universe itself is designed, or ordained if you will, to terminate. So life is fairly relative, until you consider eternity. Eternity is the mother of all absolutes.

Where I live, the majority of people are senior citizens. What strikes me with immense awe is the fact that for most old people I've met, the older they get, it seems, the MORE they think they are going to live forever. The awful consequence of this very flawed way of looking at life is the phenomenon of people continuing to do the same things and expecting different results. If you want to change your condition, you have to change your conditioning. Chuck D of Public Enemy fame once stated in a rap composition that "if I can't change the people around me, I change the people around me" well stated brother.

The consequences of refusing to take the good with the bad are catastrophic. The good, for example being alive, the bad, the imposibility of living well without following some very carefully and clearly laid out rules. The last century was one of UNFREAKINGBELEIVEABLE slaughter. This 'new century' is off to a much worse start. Roughly a million murdered Iraqis, the plight of the Palestinians, the general plight of Africa. The general plight of poor people worldwide. Genetic engineering is poisoning the food supply. World war 3 is around the corner baby, no really, I mean it, and there is only a 101% possiblity that it will go nuclear.

If you still haven't figured out that you need to get somewhat self sufficient, you are NOT in touch with reality. James Brown once sang, "we need to raise our food like the man, we need to save our money like the mob" well stated brother. If you think the government will, wants to, or is even capable of taking care of you when the free money economy plug gets pulled, I feel sorry for you, at this point you are way beyond help.

I have my freezer stocked with organic meat. There is a clean freshwater river nearby that is great for fishing. My gardens and fruit trees are doing great, and between now and next year I'll be adding roughly 6000 square meters of gardens and orchards. Now that is an investment. I work odd jobs for cash, and it mostly comes in faster than it goes out. In two years, inflation in food prices will mean next to nothing to me. Which will keep driving possible, in terms of fuel costs, folks, we ain't seen nothin' yet.

I don't see a difference, do you still see a difference?

ALIVE and WELL

Please, Please, Please.....

Yes ladies and gentlemen, the rebels of the republic do have a leader capable of leading the rebellion against the Neocon Empire. The age of the republocrats is aproaching an end. I hope, really, I mean REALY. Hmm, lets see... Hillary Clinton = War with Iran, any conservative that isn't Ron Paul = War with Iran.... SOOOOO Let's Go Ron Paul, Let's Go! WOO WOO!

Yes he is fully aware that if he even gets close, he will have a target on his head bigger than Saddam had on his. No he is not a lunatic. Yes he has Adamantium balls.

P.S. Ya just gotta gotta watch this video. If you've never seen a honest politician prepare to be blown away.



P.P.S. Notice the conspicuous abscence of 'I can save the universism'.

More Twilight Zone Crap.

Ahh yes, the Bushes and the Clintons, clusterfucking humanity one contrived disaster at a time.

I know! How about a fund set up to help the families of people maimed and killed by the international weapons trade headed by The Carlyle Group. Who pappy Bush just happened to sit on the board of. I'm sure both the war in Iraq and Afghanistan is hurting their investment portfolios.

There is no free market. Corporate socialism is no different than the 'peoples socialism'. It always works like this....First we lie. Second we take. Third we legislate against competitors. The public always pays the bills. The middle class is always wiped out. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The rich project their ruthlessnes on the poor and rationalize countless justifications for the police state. The poor project THEIR greed on the rich and demand more and more from the middle class (which they generally consider to be rich). The politicians a.k.a. appointed plantation managers are always happy to suck the middle class dry (i.e. potential competitors) and transfer the wealth to the elites for 30 peices of silver. In Corporate welfare (or what is taught as being capitalism these days) private shareholders reap the bounty. In socialist revolutions (i.e. police states, martial law) after the colapse of corporate welfare (i.e. they've sucked everyone dry) as a natural consequece the 'party of the people' continues the 'business cycle'.

Society is just the farming of people. really. deal with it.

BEE Afraid BEE Very Afraid

I wonder where that bee might be, that bee, that be, that bee. Houston we have another problem. The bees are going missing. No really. No bees. No pollinization. Lots of hunger. That's all, I'm not digging into anything on this one. Check it out for yourself.

Hey world, WAKE UP!

ALL nations are under attack. Your political systems are corrupted to the core. Your religious institutions are corrupted to the core. Your education systems are corrupted to the core. Your medical institutions are corrupted to the core. Your press and media are completely corrupted to the core. Banking and financial systems are corrupted to the core. Independent scientific research is about as common as purple people eaters! RED ALERT! RED ALERT! BLEEP! BLEEP! BLEEP! KABOOM!

Snap out of it! Think about the world you are living in! Gauge the direction the world is rifling towards. Get a back bone! Find a voice. Courage comes after you do what you are afraid to do! What kind of world are we going to leave behind to our children!?!?! Oh wait I forgot, my generation is too self centered to even seriously entertain having children. We recycle pop cans while multinational conglomerates spew aluminum byproducts and mercury into the atmosphere and the Pied Piper keeps playing the greenhouse gasses tune! OH No! Not carbon dioxide! That would make the trees grow really fast and cool the earth! How about the depleted uranium issue? If you are asking yourself what that is, then my friend you have proved my point. START RESEARCHING!!!! Take nothing at face value.

Freedom is the only social issue that has ever existed, not welfare, not medical care, not 'access' whatever the hell that is supposed to imply. Freedom! That's it. That's all. YOUR freedom to worship Your god. YOUR freedom to NOT worship somebody else's. Your freedom to do business. Your freedom to not do business. Your freedom to move. Your freedom to stay where you live right now. Your freedom to educate yourself. Your freedom to reject being educated/indoctrinated by others. Your freedom to marry. Your freedom to stay single. Your freedom to raise YOUR children. Your freedom to refuse to allow strangers to raise your children. Your freedom to hunt your food. Your freedom to buy your food. Your freedom to grow your food.

You have a GOD given right to pursue your happiness. Unlike the Idiotic notion that you a have a right to happiness itself, devoid of the the pursuit thereof and the effort required to attain it, let alone whether or not your own particular notion of happiness is in any way reasonable. I for one am happy that Hitler did not achieve his happiness, his happiness was not reasonable.

It all boils down to command and control. Left and Right in politics is an illusion, both headlights rush at you at 100 Mph every 4 years.

You want to know the real reason why private property is under attack by every major institution on the face of the earth? I'll tell ya why! I'm not afraid to say it! Private property is the BASIS of all wealth. Wealth is the source of OPTIONS. Options allow you to live as you choose. You can't choose until you have options! No choice = no freedom. Curl up and die is NOT an option. Now focus on obtaing some property of your own. During the great depression people starved en mass, and that was when half the population was still in rural areas! What the hell do you think is coming down the road at us faster than the starship enterprise on warp 10!

I AM free, that's it, that's all, I'm done with the rest. Live it to be it.

A Different Kind Of DIY Project

At Least 60lbs of Organic meat not including the bone weight.

It's difficult to describe with any accuracy what it's like to kill your own food to someone who hasn't. It takes a firm resolve. It takes nerve. It takes skill so that the animal suffers as little as possible, which means as an empathetic human being you suffer as little as possible. It's easy to kill, but to kill quickly and efficiently takes focus. Focus is difficult to maintain under stressful situations. Slaughtering your first animal at the age of 30 is a very stressful situation.I did it. It wasn't easy, in fact it was one of the hardest things I've ever forced myself to do. I have never gone game hunting. I've never taken down an animal from 50 paces with a rifle. I have gripped a goats jaw and lifted it's head so as to cut it's throat.

The blood flew, gushed, spurted, and drained from the soon to be corpse. The legs kick on their own long past consciousness in some cases. While skinning the animal, some muscles intermittently twitch. I've gotten way ahead of myself. Between the throat cutting and the skinning part is a void where time stands still and an appreciation for every mosel of meat you ever ate sets in. I didn't have to do what I did. As a consumer of meat I made the decision to do it myself. My goat meat is as organic as organic can get. There is no pollution where I live and their winter feed is locally grown. The animals get plenty of excercise (I live in the mountains of central Greece). I know what I'm eating. I know what the animal that I am eating ate. I know it's healthy, healthy as any food can get. It's what I want for myself and should the good lord bless me with descendents it what they will be raised on as well.

This morning I helped my neighbour slaughter and butcher one of the full grown goats. He's been doing this all his life. Whoah. They take alot longer to drain than the kids do. The result of all this nastiness is that I have meat in the fridge for the next 2 to 3 months at least, if not longer. About 300 retail dollars worth of meat, let's not take into consideration how much the label organic should theoretically add to that. In a sense I'm trying to despoil my self, not that I've ever really been spoiled (at least not by 20th century standards.

5yrs. ago if you said to me that I would do a tour in the Greek military, I would have told you that you had lost your mind. If you had told me that I would make a go of homesteading on a mountain, I would have told you the same, but if you told me that I would butcher my own meat.... I would have laughed my arse off at you.

These days I laugh at little. GMO foods, war, torture, fascism on the rise EVERYWHERE thanks to the willfull ignorance of the masses. I won't start ranting here, that's for another post.

P.S. I have been offline since september. In case anyone is wondering why I haven't been posting.

A "Must See" Film.

What do I believe today?

I believe that the creator should be more reverenced than the creation.

I beleive that all things created that benefit life should be defended.

I believe that all things created that harm life should be destroyed.

I believe in self defence.

I believe in the value of facts and reason.

I believe that I have been born into a society that is designed to cause failure and continually feeds the lies on which it is based, by war and taxation and the promulgation of ignorance.

I believe in the eternal, the everlasting, the truth, the way and the light.

I believe that war is a design of the Liars.

I believe that free will is a fact.

I believe that responsibility is the hallmark of those who love freedom.

I believe freedom is not something that can be attained, it is what is left when the lies of this world are stripped away.

I believe that in any crime of violence those who have profited are the ones to blame.

I believe that peace is the result of taking ownership of your own life and war is the result of paying others to own your life, think about it.

I believe that the creator gives the gift of discernment.

I believe that blind belief is the tool of the Devil.

I believe that through that blindness the persecutor cannot see the persecuted, and all crimes are justified.

Examples of things in which people are ensnared to believe blindly......

Religion, Science, Politics.

So the persecutors persecute. Some persecute that thier own sin be overlooked (we did it for you Lord), others persecute because they must answer questions which they know they cannot answer (progress at any cost), yet still others persecute because they know what's best for others (what would become of the rabble if we left them to thier own devices).

I believe this is no small thing.
