Month: November 2014

NIGHT AT THE RACES! The early bird Black Friday specials begin tonight: Thanksgiving »

I am half inclined to not care about this Black Friday mayhem.. To a big degree, throughout my teenage and adult life, Thanksgiving night has been boring. Prior to my married and fatherhood days, friends and I would take to the movie theaters and then whatever 24/7 restaurant still served on Thanksgiving and burn up time.. It was awfully dull. Same often went for Christmas night, too. So I certainly get the idea that people just want to do something and get out of a house—especially if they had it up to their throbbing temples with family brouhahas..

But as far as the shopping? It’s insane to ignite any fire in my rear end to go to a mall or Walmart tonight into tomorrow morning. There will be trampling. Mayhem. Near riots. Shootings. Punches. Fights. Screaming.

Just tonight, while getting a last minute pie on our way to Thanksgiving dinner, we stopped at a Walmart since they were the only slave store still open forcing their employees to miss valuable time with family in exchange for hours behind a cash register. The pre-Black Friday sales were already being planned, with plastic wrap around the things we weren’t allowed to see or take.. There were cattle-herding-type metal gates around the store.. there were taped markers on the floor where people were to form  lines.. and there were actually store workers screaming at me, my wife, and son, because we entered on the wrong side of the cattle prodding gates..

But we got our pie..
I will be monitoring the news outlets tomorrow to see what happens in the shopping outlets..

There may be blood. We know that.
But the deals!
Commerce!
Credit!
Spend until your can’t lend..
Can’t tell you’re in hell..
Your shopping plaza treats you so well.

Enjoy your races to the slaughter tomorrow. Your cash will be dispensed as fast as you spend it.

Or wait, we are cashless now.

So strap in and swipe away..
It’s Black Friday and the turkey has gone cold.

Turkeys.
Cold turkeys.

This is my son Ayden peering through a decorated window looking at the first snowstorm of the year, which incidentally falls on the day before Thanksgiving 2014.

While he’s excited by the prospect of playing in this later, it will most likely only last for a few minutes outside when he ventures away from
Technology and television sets… He’s not a big snow lover, at least not yet.. but one thing he sure loves now is his understanding that today was the first day his daycare got canceled because of the weather..

I remember those days myself as a child, staring at the bottom of the television screen waiting for my school to be named, angry when it wasn’t…

Sometimes being a parent is like watching yourself grow, enjoying the same things they do, and almost feeling like it’s happening for the first time to you as well.

So if it’s snowing where you are enjoy it. If it’s not, enjoy whatever weather nature has given you.

Mutley the Dog got in some action tonight, too..

Careful travels, and let your party night rock. Or be frozen solid as a rock, whichever nature chooses for your night before Thanksgiving..

The sign could not have been in a more bizarre spot.

As protests began last night in Ferguson, Missouri, police and people had a stand off, a “Season’s Greetings” sign was evident in a number of photographs.. Fires eventually raged while President Obama addressed the nation, and rest became a blip in history. Another tale of race relations that will be taught in history books–depending on who writes them and what century a teacher picks to teach..

Seasons greetings, indeed..
A season of hell, a season of turbulence and crisis.. a season without reason..

That is what it seems like we are living in right now.

Rage without reason..
Treason in this season,
Greetings from Ferguson,
But who will stop the bleeding?

There was one other piece of oddity today from the news.. Darren Wilson, in a part of his testimony to a grand jury that eventually say no reason to go further in prosecuting the police office, said that Michael Brown looked like a demon during their scuffle. 

Demons and villains. |
The media’s ratings were high covering it all–until the media had the crowd turn on them, of course..they backed down when the burning began..

Demons..

The season that greets us is starting early this year. Shopping will begin early.
Thanksgiving is virtually nonexistent at this point. No time for family or friends, kinship is dead.. The season is here, and it is happening soon..

People often lament the fact that Thanksgiving has lost its meaning, with material possessions winning over the turkeys every time..

People will line up, waiting for store doors to bust open.. They will trample people from sea to shining sea. There will be news blips and articles about people being hurt, perhaps even the Black Friday death count website will tally up the wreckage by day’s end.. and what will we gain from it? Nothing.

Absolutely nothing. Except of course a few pieces of foreign made products that found a home instead of a trash heap.

We will not care much about the personal embarrassment we should feel acting like wild loons rampaging a store for a possession..

And for all of those people who say the looting in Ferguson is reprehensible, they will be doing their own brand of looting come Black Friday, when they violently rummage through store shelves, shoving others out of the way, and getting their deals. Or steals..

Is there a dark and sinister force at play on this planet?
Perhaps a deep and dark underbelly of demonic action on Earth.
Maybe the fires that burn in the city of Ferguson are a symbol of the burning to come.. the PURGING to come..

Purging has been the theme of the year. PURGE fears have abounded many times over across the Internet… while no purge occurred, the ‘purge’ style violence in Ferguson seems to be the culmination of affairs. Other comparisons have been made to the HUNGER GAMES.

There was also a year of false faces–clowns have been abundant throughout the world. Fraudulent smiles painted on men in France, and California, and other places around the planet. The clown phenomenon seemingly has waned since Halloween came and left us, but the darkness that they seem to have represented did not. It’s still there, alive and well.. OR dead and from hell. Take your pick.

The gates of hell opened. We have been told that many times over through pop culture references and even the Vice President of the United States. The gates of hell, unleashed ..

The final seasonal greeting tonight comes in the form of a fire and killing. A teenager, African American, was found shot to death.. a bullet was placed through his head. He was also burned.. This happened in Ferguson.  He was found close to the apartments where Michael Brown was shot and killed by Officer Darren Wilson.. At this point, police say that the killing is suspicious.. It surely sounds like it is.

But these are suspicious times. Very serious times, as well.

We have a number of opinions from a number of people who were not on the scene as to what happened between Michael Brown and Darren Wilson.  And we have formed opinions.. So many have based their feelings on racism.. The word thug is being used as code.. We know that. And on the flip side, family members of Brown began screaming to ‘burn the bitch down’ after Wilson was exonerated..

This is the 2014 seasonal greetings.. From hell.
Merry Christmas from demons..
The gates of hell, decorated with blood and murder, and complete with mistletoe. Have a final kiss on Satan.

At least 45 people were killed and 60 others were wounded Sunday after a suicide bomber attacked a crowd watching a volleyball match in Afghanistan’s southeastern Paktika province, according to a spokesman for the local governor.

Saturday begins.. noteworthy events continue.. a conglomeration of things that matter from the fruited plain and beyond..

Today is the 51st anniversary of the JFK assassination. I contemplated this all week, and listened to some amazing GROUND ZERO WITH CLYDE LEWIS shows as well. It angers me to think that we don’t have truth, and that even after all these decades are done, the main theory of the assassination being perpetrated by one lone gunman still seems to rely on such shaky truth. And the girls seeing Lee Oswald drinking a Coke!? Ignored.. a man at the underpass being hit by a stray bullet? Forgotten.. A rush of a crowd running to the Grassy Knoll? We are told they were simply chasing echoes from the main shooter: Oswald on the 6th floor in his ‘sniper’s den.’ And then, Jack Ruby kills the main that Hoover and company immediately blamed for the assassination and America, as a result, skyrocketed involvement in foreign entanglements.. The only thing that makes sense is that the cover story for the JFK assassination does not make sense, at all. Take just one minute out of your busy Saturday and picture one single shooter–avoiding the easy shot–but still getting each and every shot perfectly right. The magic bullet theory..And the magic easy one shooter assassination theory. Forgetting, of course, Oswald’s ties to alphabet agencies..

Speaking of JFK.. A mob hitman named James Files claims he was the man responsible for killing Kennedy and that Lee Harvey Oswald never fired a single shot..

This is an interesting little tale being weaved by the religious power brokers of the planet: The Pope and Peres meet and discuss a sort of ‘United Nations for religions.’ You ever hear of those weird conspiracy theories that a one world religion would occur? Maybe that will happen after all. With Petrus Romanus to boot us into papal submission. Infallible style.

The future is coming so fast it’s already sort of behind us.. So what happens when robots not only replace the manufacturing jobs as they have done, but also the service economy as they are beginning to do now?? A WAGE FLOOR! Switzerland is preparing to give a ‘living wage’ to every citizen in its country. A monthly income with no strings attached. This may start to become a permanent reality for lots of people living in a jobless society. And the living wage could be a good thing for conservative minded people, too! It would replace social safety nets like food stamps and welfare. Instead, you’d get the income you need on a monthly basis to live. No more need for jobs. Let the robots do it.. I think this is going to happen more and more in places you’d never expect it. But in reality, what is the solution without the wage floor? What do you do with a nation of 300 million in America, let’s say, where only 40% of a country works and only 20% of them have jobs with good benefits or pensions? The failure has already occurred.. the ‘jobless recovery’ has paved the way for a wage floor in the future. Checks handed out by government robots…

Bill Cosby has been getting hit lots of picture pages from women lately.. But when he continued to entertain at his sold out show in Florida, he received a standing ovation from his audience.. The Cos comeback tour beginning? Or sentimental people who are allowing their nostalgia to cover their eyes to high crimes committed by the man who once made us laugh?

The Obama Administration issues warning to America: Don’t waste your Thanksgiving food.

This is an amazing story–I have written previously that the nuclear situation in Hanford, Washington, was being ignored on purpose my national media. I believe that continues to be the case. But the local affiliates are still reporting on situations, with the latest news being a blip about a damning picture of worker safety protocols at the Hanford site. Previously, Hanford workers received claim denials .. Something surely is rotten..

Fear for Thanksgiving: Lindsay Williams back with ominous warnings of chaos inspired by the elite…

Fear for Christmas: FOX NEWS warns that hackers could send America into an uncontrollable downward spiral. Like WALKING DEAD stuff.. only the hosts with three inches of makeup will survive.

Fear porn. War. Terror. Economic realities.. This is how your brain turns remote threats into anxiety. Cue the air hunger, coming to a lung near you.

An old debate (as well old as video games at least) rears again: Do violent games make us violent?

While Obama took to the nation to discuss immigration, causing deep hatred to flow and bitter anger to surface, something else was going on. He was very quietly extending the US combat mission in Afghanistan.. As a matter of fact, it expands what troops in the nation can do through the year 2015. Previously, our leader stated that the mission would be limited.. This may come as a surprise to those not paying attention. Okay. Back to your immigration debate now, sheeple.

And interesting note to make on the immigration issue, as well: Obama has signed the order paving the way for at least 5 million illegal immigrants to get citizenship, all with the stroke of his pen, obviously mightier than his sword.. But he is still being heckled by immigration activists wherever he goes. And their stance is interesting: Why did he leave their moms behind?

American led air strikes in Syria have killed 910 people including 52 civilians.

A SHINING musical parody coming in 2015..

NEW YORK TIMES reviews EXTRATERRESTRIAL –and not very well, either.

The very normal and random act of a cup falling down off of the sink today caused me a little concern until I contemplated what had just occurred.

I was moving from one room to the next when I placed the cup on the edge of the bathroom sink. I left the room for a split second and thought to myself, “that coup is going to fall” ..

And that it did.

I went back into the room, wiped up the coffee which had fallen from the cup onto the floor, and checked the mug for any potential breaks. This was a very special mug after all, it was my Batman Father’s Day hero cup given to me the first year my son was alive..

After cleaning up and leaving the room, I stopped to think back as to what just happened.

Quite literally, I even retrace my steps. I went back into the room and realized where the cup markings had been, as we know coffee cups often leave a stain outline of where the its put down.

What I realized was astonishing. There should be no logical way the cup would’ve fallen off of the sink judging from the markings of where it was but I placed it down. It was literally inches away from the edge, but yet somehow when I left the room the mug had fallen down from the location.

My mind is boggled, and it continues to be so. I continue to rehash the scene in my mind over and over again and wonder if somehow perhaps as I was leaving the room I didn’t quite unhand the cup fully from my fingers and shifted it towards the edge too much, allowing it to gracefully fall from the sink onto the floor below.

Even stranger I thought, why did I think the cup would fall before it did? Did I create this action by my thoughts? Or, did I subconsciously make the cup fall down by moving it towards the edge of the sink, and somehow convincing myself it was a random act of fate?

I know this: the cup is fine, it seems 30. I also know in my deep heart of hearts that I did not make that cup fell down by any physical action.

As far as how the cup fell? I really don’t know.
An abundant amount of theories are exploding in my head, some metaphysical and some paranormal, even a peppered bit with the notion that time slips or an alternate reality of me was present on another time line, and for one second we interacted.

Quite frankly, there is no logical way that the cup should have fallen from the sink. But it did.

And it bothers me..

It was a normal late evening rush hour.
Cars attempting to burst out of the moving traffic jams caused by too many people leaving work at the same time..
Trucks pushing and shoving themselves into the front of the line, just to make traffic back up further..
And noise..

Voices raised on radio..So much noise.. So much clutter. The voices on the radio wildly claiming that President Obama should be impeached for amnesty.. And all the while, proponents of the President, like Nancy Pelosi, were making their own wild claims by saying the Obama plan to legalize millions of Mexicans was akin to Lincoln’s proclamation freeing the slaves..

But the sun was setting.. and those voices were being suddenly drown out by the reality in front of me.

The clutter of the day, along with the tension raising diatribes of talking heads in the air, didn’t matter.. Their sounds were gone. Instead a brilliant sunset was taking place in front of me..

The countless stresses were immediately alleviated. I was almost frozen in awe at the deep red and orange haze that was glazing the sky over.. Like a homage to the day, the sun was cleverly saying goodbye to all that was when it was shining bright.. now night was falling, the atmosphere was darkening.. but the sun’s final hoorah was complete with one final serenade.

For a moment, it was like the sky turned the color of blood red ooze..

These sunsets are synonymous with this time of year..
And then.. the sun was gone.
Tucked away behind a mountain… a cloak of darkness took its place. The faint bright outline of red still topped the hills. But the beauty of that sunset became just a fleeting moment in recent history..

And with all of the sudden, those voices still clamoring about daily headlines went up in volume.. And life was back to normal again..
