FK – It never rains in southern commiefornia….
Still waiting on my starship with its own holodeck.
FK – Millions of voters could use a brain implant, just so they have something there….

FK – Most ‘decent well-intentioned’ tool using monkeys are morons. No amerikan alive today has known liberty.
If the military were fighting for our freedom they’d all be here. The empire’s military hasn’t fought a war for Liberty since 1865 and the bad guys won that one.
Sign this:
“The whole secret lies in confusing the enemy, so that he cannot fathom our real intent.” – Sun Tzu
Hence to fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting. – Sun Tzu
As for our current situation there is only one fix for it, if it can be fixed. But western so-called men have been de-backboned and de-nutted and shrink from the idea of shedding blood when the tree of Liberty cries out for it in such a plaintive and alarming way.
What does ‘We the People’ actually mean?
It means we are responsible…
We have a representative republic, guaranteed to every state, not a democracy.
We have a Bill of Rights that acknowledges rights we are born with, not granted or created by any government.
We vote with the knowledge that voting is the most violent act anyone can participate in because voting is electing someone to hire someone to stick a government gun in our neighbors’ faces and force our version of reality on them at the threat of their very lives.
We stand ready to protect our Liberty and the Liberty of our neighbors, not destroy it, via any version of authoritarianism, of any age or place.
We are prepared with knowledge and force of arms to make war against and kill if necessary those who would destroy our Bill of Rights whether they represent domestic or foreign enemies.
We do not lie to ourselves, our families, our friends, our business associates, our descendants, our enemies, about these things and do not EVER tolerate those who would have us do so.
If the troops were fighting for our freedom they’d all be here.
FK – What, you’ve never skylarked with or succored the lads?
To be ‘fair’ if that’s possible in this, sheeple and people at that time saw things differently. Kids were ‘taught to swim’ by simply throwing them in the water and if they successfully dog paddled to shore they were considered to be swimmers, and could maintain this falsehood their entire lives unless they ran upon a situation where it was necessary to float, at which point they likely drowned.
The dynamite doesn’t surprise me either. They weren’t as squeamish in those days. Some of them may have been veterans and had thus seen far worse things than a mangled drowned body.
On the other hand, I wouldn’t put anything past them since they consider us to be livestock.
And to be clear on a point: If you don’t learn how to relax and float you can’t swim and will begin to sink once you lose the energy to tread water or fight your way across the surface, which is what non-swimmers are doing.
Again, if you can’t float, you can’t swim. If you’re in water over your head and run out of energy to tread water or fight your way across the surface, which is what non-swimmers do, then you will sink and die.
All of which has put me on a tangent: Can you float like a pancake?
FK – Most kids of that age are naturally not afraid of the water. But if they can’t float they can’t swim and can die!
There’s no excuse for not drown proofing kids:
FK – Babies are natural floaters. I’m not convinced that some of them won’t have to relearn the skill as they get older unless they grow up around the water.
What am I saying? This planet is 70 percent water. Kentucky has more miles of running water than any state except Alaska. Swimming is one of the most basic survival skills.
And for the grownups who may be old enough to be afraid of the water:
FK – There’s no excuse for anyone of any age not knowing how to swim.
And more on floating:
FK – I was taught to float and get used to having my face in the water by holding onto the edge of the pool in shallow water and turning my head and breathing as if doing the freestyle stroke. It can take time for some.
Learning to overcome the impulse to panic is the key, as with all things. Panic in the water and you die. For those who are a little more daring:
FK – While ‘free energy’ sounds wonderful I have to ask a few basic questions:
What would happen to the global human population? Would it crash, remain the same or would the rats start breeding to the point that we couldn’t find solitude on the highest mountain?
How do we know these other ‘beings’ have our best interests at heart? Maybe it’s in their interest to hand the tool using monkeys a toy they’re not ready to play with yet?
Hell, millions(billions) can’t make a logical rational decision before they enter a voting booth and we’re thinking about handing them the keys to the universe? I don’t think so.
What will these ‘free energy devices’ cost? How will we prevent the corporations and banksters from obtaining the patents and charging a lifetime of payments for one?
Free energy or cancer cures won’t mean squat without real Human Liberty.
FK – Well that’s cheating. I was expecting some new kitchen tool. I slice and dice myself.
I like to use spare watermelons for target practice. Hit with a high velocity round dead center they almost vaporize.
FK – Time to cool off again. The next one is funnier…
FK – Well, a few get to have real lives and do something besides graze and breed and waste their time in exchange for money…
This is how economists say “Oops!”
On Friday the IEA was still astonished at the resilience of the oil industry as it continued to produce at record levels, despite predictions that declining rig counts would force production cuts. Instead, total U.S. crude oil production hit a high of 9.4 million barrels a day during the week ending March 6.
Others are predicting that eventually there will be no place to store the surplus oil. At present, over 70 percent of available crude-oil storage capacity is being used, raising questions about where to put the oil if production doesn’t begin declining soon.
The free market is providing the answers to these and other questions, with the price of crude oil on Friday (for April delivery on the New York Mercantile Exchange) touching the lowest price since January 28. Expectations were that oil, which dropped from over $100 a barrel late last year, would bottom out somewhere around $55 a barrel, and then begin slowly inching its way back up. For about 30 days, that prediction seemed to be accurate.
FK – Or maybe they’re expecting to burn a lot more in a coming war…
They don’t do anything for ‘our’ benefit.
