View From Outer Space


(A friend has asked me what I think about the subject of UFOs.  It got me to thinking about a potential appearance on mainstream media in this country of a Visitor from Outer Space.)

‘ - So, with that as introduction: Welcome to the show, Sir!’

‘Thank you, glad to be here, I think is your expression?’

‘Yes, that will do just fine, Sir.  So!  As you have indicated, you have been observing us for awhile, now; so, what do you think of us, Sir, and our ways?  Please tell it 'straight’ - as we say - to our viewing and listening audience.'

‘Well, what can I say; I think is another of your expressions.  - ‘

‘That will do, too!  Ha ha.’

‘ - So, a couple of observations, just off the top of my head, as you - ‘

‘As we also say, ha ha!  Great stuff, eh folks??!’

‘One is, I understand that you Americans are such an open-hearted people that you don’t even bother to check to see if the people who vote in your elections are actually eligible to.’

‘ - Uh, - ‘

‘Are so trusting that you just take their word for it.’

‘ - Um… - Well; - ‘

‘That is really, what can I say: remarkable.’  

‘ - Um… - Well, actually, …’

‘And that your open-heartedness also extends to just trusting that the people who run for office are eligible for the office.’

‘ - Uhhhh…  - ’

‘As I say: remarkable.  Simply…remarkable.’

‘…Could you…umm…’

‘And I also understand, from watching your ‘mainstream media,’ as you call it, that your president - how can I translate this, into words that carry the meaning, as I understand it - that your president does the equivalent of kick dogs, and pinch little children until they cry, and mock people with deformities. and so forth.  Amazing.  One wonders, how he ever became your president in the first place?’

‘Well actually, a lot of us - ‘

‘I can only assume that your country is simply ‘chock full’ - I think I have that one right; it is quite a good saying, that one - is ‘chock full’ of people who kick dogs, and pinch little children until they cry, and mock people with deformities.’

‘ - Well, actually, - ‘

‘And if that is the case; for the rest of you:

‘Why don’t you leave?  Would be my basic question.’


And mine as well.  If I may be so bold.

And let us Deplorables get on with blocking your attempts to fasten a totalitarian slave state on the planet, where all speech that you don’t like would be stifled, and those who would attempt to say anything other than the ‘official version’ of things would be sent away to the modern-day’s equivalent of the Soviet Union’s gulag archipelago - at best.  And be simply done away with at worst.

You undercutters of the land of essential liberty:

Out of my country.

You are no kin of mine.

Shape up.

Or ship out.

I think is the appropriate expression.


P.S. As for the original question at the top of this blog, about UFOs; and about the blog itself:
     I am for the Truth in all things.
     Period.

P.P.S. Also as for expressions, or at least, phrases, and in this context:
     I am an American, born and bred, whose first language is English; and I don't understand the difference between 'extremely careless' and 'grossly negligent'.  I am of the impression that there is no reasonable, rational difference between the two.
     But I am sure that some shyster lawyer can tell me what it is.  
     Before I tell him where to go.

George Who? Thomas Who?


(This is, in a way, a follow-on to my blog of late last night/early this morning, with my thoughts roaming around a  bit today on a general subject.  The subject of Where We Are, And Where We Are Going, And How We Are Going To Get There.)


I can only imagine that so many Americans seem to have lost contact with, and appreciation for, their legacy as have done so - in ’the land of the free’ - because of the deliberately enervated condition of the public school ‘industry’ in this country.  For, as it turns out, that has been part of - and an extremely vital part of - the ’communist conspiracy,’ to take over this country, and to leap from there into totalitarian control over the entire planet.  And so - and particularly because communism is antithetical to the real Truth -  the larger Truth - in the form of the understanding that life is but part of a larger whole, not the be-all and end-all of existence, in and for itself only - that outcome must not, and should not, be allowed to occur.  However, and given all that atrocious undermining - and under the further corrupt belief system (growing out of the concept of everything being relative, that there are no absolutes) that the end justifies the means; any and all, including lying, cheating, stealing, and even killing - that is not to say that an economic system designed to deal with just that - ‘economy’ - should be, or need best be, a, the, system of sharing to deal with abundance, in a, or the, Age thereof.  

Consider.

* We are on the verge of major technological breakthroughs in virtually every aspect of social life; breakthroughs that render previous forms of social life anachronistic.

* Cancer.  There are treatments (and cures) for cancer that get to the root of the problem, not the superficial application of band-aids to the problem.  And at the expense of the general health and wellbeing of people, in that approach to such a matter.  So the cancer industry has to go.1 

* And a significant part of the drug industry in general.  Whose adherents would, e.g., prefer to make money - and lots of it; for the ‘balance sheet’ - off of antidepressant sales than be a part of the end of that gross public-health problem (with its ancillary effects in such as school shootings).  So, the drug industry has to go, largely, too.  

Because it is all holding up progress.  Not political ‘progress,’ as in liberal ‘progressives,’ shading over into socialism and, further left, outright communism.  But as in human progress in general.

And the same for

* Big Oil.  We have all heard stories (and some seen videos) about, e.g., inventors who have figured out how to miniaturize the electrolysis process in order to produce hydrogen to run a car engine, with the safe by-product of oxygen for the environment; for the stories simply to disappear from view, seemingly mysteriously.  But that ‘disappearing act’ is about to go the way of the dodo bird, because there are too many clever people out there, and other ways to produce energy for such as automobiles have been uncovered as well; such as NanoCrystal Electricity and thermal resonators.2

And with the demise of Big Oil goes Big Pharma as well.  With most if not all drugs having been and being born as petroleum products.  (Its not being an accident that David Rockefeller Sr. poured a major investment of money into the country’s medical schools at the turn of last century; and thereby got them so concentrated on drug treatment for dis-ease as they have become.)  

And thus, the end of the medical-pharmaceutical-government complex.  Symbolizing the end of an Era.

So you can see that we are headed for a major Turning Point in our species’s evolutionary history.

And just in time, it would appear, more and more.  With such incentives as these - these ‘money-making’ incentives - leading us into dangerous pastures.   Which we need to avoid.

Just as soon as possible.  For, terrible poisons lurk there.

To the unwary.  That is to say,

to those who have not studied their history sufficiently to recognize such plants.

Like nightshades.  

Shades of the night.  Giving way, now, to

the bright light of a New Day.

footnotes:

1 And before any more ‘holistic’ medical people are killed, for bringing such treatments and cures to the attention of the public.  A terrible, terrible outcome of  the Old Order attempting to extend itself into a future that has no room for it any longer, if it ever did.

2 With Big Oil apparently having seen such ‘competition’ coming down the pike towards them anyway, and having started to ‘improvise’ out into algae, as in ‘farms’ in the Gulf of Mexico after the terrible oil spill there.  
   (Which still needs to be investigated thoroughly.  An ‘accident’ that has allowed Big Oil to branch out into another aspect of energy production, and in a wholesale way, by taking over control of much of the offshore area there for their algae farms, by having eliminated the fishing industry there  All in the name of 'profit'…)

The Moral Of The Story


For over a couple of weeks now my computer has not uttered a sound.  Back whenever now, I fired it up, as usual, and in hindsight noticed that it didn’t give me the usual strong ’pong’ sound of awakening from its slumber.  But soon enough, upon going to my emails, I noted that I had no sound.  To either audio or video.  I shut my machine down - it’s an Apple iMac desktop, that I got nearly six years ago, now; and have had no trouble with it the whole time - and disconnected my Internet link from the wall telephone socket for just short of a minute, as I often do (I have a lot of problems with my mouse arrow freezing on me; especially on conservative sites, I have noticed; another story), and then fired my machine up again.  And again - no sound.  I exited my Internet link and tried a CD.  No luck there, either.  

On an off chance, I emailed my Internet provider, and got into a ‘chat’ on the Live Chat line with ultimately three different trouble shooters (the link kept blocking me from being able to answer their questions after a number of them had been successful; don’t know why), the last of whom seemed to be a senior member of the team, who ’said’ that he sent a signal down my line, and there was some problem with its return, and he would write out a Service Request order for me, and hold on a minute…that will be next Tuesday, the such-and-such, between such-and-such times, and they would call me a half-hour ahead of time to confirm.  So, some hope for a possible answer to my problem there.

The day before my appointment, I happened to see one of my phone-&-Internet providers on a service call further down my alley, and mentioned that I might see him the next day, and what for, and he said that it didn’t sound like a problem with them, that it was a problem with my computer (to which reply I interjected that I had been coming to think that as well), but that he would check it out.  In the event, no one from the company called me or came by the next day at the appointed time.  I assumed that it was because the particular Service guy reported to his supervisor about the conversation that he had had with me, and perhaps they had decided between them that the Service guy was right, and since he had told me that that was probably the matter, that they decided to leave it at that.  

So the ball was back in my court.  I remembered that I had seen a sign in a shop on the main street nearby about doing various such electronic repairs, so I went by there.  The guy listened to my story, off the top of his head figured that I may be able to solve the problem just by buying some external speakers, but that he would take a look at my machine in a week’s time, being tied up with a job until then.  We set a time period that he would call me.  On that day, and during that time period, I got a call, not from him but from somebody who said that they were with Apple Stores, and that - 

well, I’ll let my email response today (yesterday, now) to a friend, to whom I had confided my sad tale, tell that part of the story.  First, my preliminary email to him (in part), of late two days ago, now:

“Oh - and by the way: I got some bad news today (two days ago, now) (…).1  It would cost me $200 just to have a 'Diagnostic' run on my computer, to find out the extent of the problem inside it.  Not something I'm really feeling up for.  I miss online videos and audios, and my evening dinner-preparatory musical interlude via CD, and the occasional DVD.  But 200 smackers, just to tell me what's wrong - and then whatever the tariff is from then on.  Upgrades of sound apps, or external speakers, or worse…”

and the followup email to this friend, in reply to an email that he sent me earlier yesterday (our time) after the one that I sent him, as quoted from above:

“So last night I decided not to entrust my computer today into the hands of The Geek Squad at the Best Buy store that I had bought it at nearly 6 years ago, not feeling comfortable either with the basic cost of their Diagnostic 'procedure' [the same figure, I noted, that the other Repair guy was going to charge me, just for a ‘diagnostic’ check; it must be the standard repair rate quoted just to have a look at a computer] or the fact that they have a deal w/Apple whereby, if they find from their Diagnostics testing that they have to go into the machine to trace down a problem in there, they have to ship it to Apple somewhere else in the country, and they will contact me over the phone w/whatever info they choose to share w/me.  And thus my machine would be in their hands.  Capable of being held on me, until I forked over however much money I might be extorted for...to upgrade to their newest model, or whatever other excuse that they might hit me with......he said, indicating his cynicism over the profit motive environment that we are embedded in, w/out any indication of acknowledging that we are 'spiritual beings having a human experience,' but are simply cattle to these people in charge of things these days......

“…and so I go online somewhat briefly, before going out to run some errands for the day, and scrolling down my plethora of emails, see some from my good friend over in Scotland; and in checking on the first of them I see some advice, including:

"'1. Check Sound output options in your System Preferences: make sure 'internal speakers' is selected, the slider is all the way up and the mute is deselected.'

“So I go to my System Preferences, and see an icon marked 'Sound,' and check it out, and there are two sliders, one for output and one for input, and the one for output is all the way over to high, but for some reason, the one for input is not all the way over to high; and so I move it all the way over to high; and go back to my emails, and check out a site that has an audio link in it...and 

“I can now hear it.  

“And then I check out a site that has a video link in it...and

“I can see that, and hear that, now, too.

“And all it cost me was to have a friend in life.

“Thanks, friend.

“Stan

“P.S. And what I am left with - besides access to my computer's sound, now - is the question: What happened to my machine.

“I think I have the answer.  On Tuesday morning I got a call from an East Indian guy telling me that he was from Apple Stores and they had checked my computer and found that I had something or other [faulty] going on, and wanted to check it out for me, for security purposes; and ran me through some sites for them to check things out - which I was open to their doing, since I did have this problem with my sound, and if they could uncover that problem for me, well, great.  And at one point they had me do something that allowed them to take over my computer remotely (as you suggested I could let you do) and check some things out.  And they found a whole bunch of people had hacked into my computer, including someone from China.  And with all of that showing graphically to me on my screen, they then told me that they could save me from all that sort of thing, if I bought such-and-such an app/coverage from them, that started with $299 for one year's security cover, and such-and-such an amount for 3 years, and...and......and I told them no, thanks.  And they hung up abruptly on me.  And I am left thinking: If they are so good at their job, they may well be good enough at it to get into my computer, and cause me a problem in the first place, for them to then come along and try to sell me a deal to keep that sort of thing from happening.  It's called extortion.  It's the same as the mob saving your store from being firebombed if you pay them a monthly stipend to keep you safe, from such a terrible possibility...

“…at least that is what I am thinking now that happened to my computer.  And which, of course, leaves me wondering what else somebody, who has something to sell me, might do to my computer remotely, for them [then] to come along and try to sell me on their deal.

“Leaves me aware that we are at their electronic mercy.

“As I said:

“Get ready to beam me up, Scotty.  Either things change, in this hellhole.  Or I want out.

“And I don't plan on going anywhere.  Too soon.”
  
-

So, the moral of this story: 

It is something like, Don’t try to do everything by yourself.  That’s part of what friends are for.  And the other part of that equation, is to think to communicate with your friends.  Unless they are really advanced, they can’t tell what’s on your mind.

And another take on the moral of this story, is, like:

Don’t go to a surgeon to find out how to keep from going to a surgeon.  Or a general practitioner either, for that matter.  (Looking down their noses at the likes of a mere 'dietician'.)  That is not what they are in business for.  So, don’t expect them to let you in on ways to keep from having to go to them.

I am saying, that our current ‘economic system’ is a terrible incentivizer, for people to do others in, for ‘economic gain’.  Pits us against one another.

When we have lost the plot.

Which such a system encourages us to do.  

And so, would a communist, or merely ‘socialist,’ system be any better, huh, huh, how about that then, huh, huh??

But the thing is, it doesn’t have to be either/or.

It can be both/and.  In a way.

In an Ascended way.  That combines elements of both such systems.  In a process of Synthesis.

And adds a new element to the equation.

Not just the combination of them, with ‘the whole being greater than the sum of its parts’.

But with the opening to the larger dimension of reality that the end of the evolutionary geopolitical process brings into being.

In, as I say:

Ascension.

Out of this hellhole.

For aspiring gods.

As an incentive for them not to get stuck in it.

But to get back to their true natures.

Those chips - sparks - that I have talked about in these pages before.

Which is all the moral of

the Story of Life.

1 To explain: After the Repair guy near me failed to call me to have me bring my computer in to have him give it at least a quick check, I called another General Repair guy with a shop front further closer to downtown, who told me that it would cost me $200 just to have him look at it, but that there was a chance that all I needed to do was buy a couple of external speakers for it.  Where could I get that sort of thing?  "Oh, Best Buy, or Amazon.”  Best Buy…that was the outfit that I had bought it from in the first place.  Maybe they could help me, if I go in there and ask them some basic questions…which was what occasioned my trip to the Best Buy store, where they gave me the news that I shall now report on.

2 A note: Three different East Indian guys were involved in that phone call with running me through measures to check out my computer.  It feels now as though the first guy was like the caster of the fishline, for a strike, and then the second guy comes in to hold the reeling-in space, and then the third guy comes in to net the catch, if their process had gotten them that far.
   How did they know that I had an Apple if they weren’t connected with that company, in some fashion or other?  And if I had gone along with the game, would I have been asked simply to give them my credit card info over the phone, and they could be anybody that way??  And if I had refused to do that, and insisted on mailing it to some Apple address or other, would they have been prepared to handle such an event???
   Questions, about this whole strange 'business'…...

You Wonder Why I Swear Sometimes?


from dailycaller.com: "Acting ICE Director Thomas Homan: ‘More People Are Going To Die’ Because Of Sanctuary Cities (VIDEO)" - Nick Givas - March 8
(“Acting director of Immigration and Custom Enforcement (ICE) Thomas Homan said Thursday on “Fox & Friends” that 'more people are going to die' as a result of sanctuary city policies.
“Homan criticized Oakland mayor Libby Schaaf for interfering with ICE officers and said radical views on immigration are a danger to public safety.
“‘[Schaaf] let the criminal aliens that we had targeted for arrest, gave them an advanced notice law enforcement was coming for them. And many criminal aliens were not apprehended because of that warning,’ Homan said.  ‘I can’t put a specific number on it but a lot of criminal aliens were not found because they were given advance warning by the mayor, which increased a public safety issue in her area. We’ve got criminal aliens walking around that community that are now in hiding because of her warning.’…”

Book'er. An accomplice to a crime. Nothing less than a lookout. Disgusting.

On Planned Obsolescence


On early Tuesday morning I posted my response to an article on the Internet that a friend had forwarded to me about a 'revolutionary' way to tap into energy called NanoCrystal electricity, that was either a game-changer in its own right, or at least heading us in that direction.  This friend (what would we do without friends??) has subsequently sent me another such potential game-changer, this one - come up with by scientists at MIT - is called a 'thermal resonator,' a device which operates on the principle of a fluctuation in temperature creating a current.  It all brings up the subject, long talked about amongst us Homo sapiens sapiens, of 'free energy'.  I would like to elaborate on the subject, as to its implications.

First, an understanding.  'Money' - as we have understood it; i.e., interest-bearing money (and its 'wealth-creation-on-steroids' companion, of compound interest) - is, at its simple core, merely a mental concept.  We Earthians could as well, say, decide that every time the sun comes up, we are all - everybody on the planet -  'gifted' with a hundred units of credit.  To be spent however we wish to, within the bounds of whatever laws we develop to control the process.1  Money, then - as we have known it - is rapidly becoming obsolete, in a 'climate' of abundance.  Generated by such as 'free energy' devices.  With the development of such as 'replicators' not being far behind such a level of technological understanding, and development.2

Not to go into all of the implications of this thinking, and stage along the path of human creative development.  Just to highlight it for what it is:

a clear signal of a game-changer.

Which will require us to learn to release various low-consciousness aspects of the past on our journey.   In order to reach its potential.  For us individually, and collectively.

The kingdom of heaven.

Not in 'the great beyond'.  But

right here.  On Earth.

This grand Waystation, in the known universe.

On this 3D level.

Where we are being beckoned to uncover our full potential.

As 'chips - aka 'sparks ' - i.e. energy units - off the old block.'

As we speak.

footnotes:

1 A process, not so incidentally, being anticipated as we speak by the idea of a 'Basic Minimum Wage,' or BMW; a 'vehicle' being tried out in various places on the planet.  Which could easily come to a crashing outcome, without the proper incentivation.
   Read on.

2 Which we are close to already, with such as 3D printing devices.
   If you can print out a home, nearly from scratch (and understand the workings of DNA the way we already do), what else can you do, with such a beginning trigger for ingenuity??  With the potential of the human mind to conceive, and create???
   That is to say: With its potential, as its operator being 'a spiritual being having a human experience'.  And thus, a creator, by its very nature.
   It very true nature, that is.

The Very Definition of Hypocrisy


The Democrats tried to make a huge issue out of alleged 'Russian influence' for Trump in the 2016 elections.  (Which investigation is biting them in the bum, as it turns out that Clinton was involved in such shady shenanigans up to her double's eyeballs.)  However, research has shown that there were over 100,000 'noncitizens' voting in the elections in Pennsylvania alone - and Virginia and New Jersey and Maryland are under that Election Integrity microscope as well.  And, of course, there is Chicago; where the 'residents' - i.e., anybody with an address - are being given a 'municipal' ID, that will allow them to do all sorts of things, including to, er, vote.

So, it's terrible - terrible - if there was Russian influence in the elections (as long as it was alleged to be for Trump).  But it is another thing when there is widespread voting being done by illegal aliens, and other noncitizen voters (as long as it is obviously going to benefit the Dems).

What we have here, ladies and gentlemen, is the very definition of hypocrisy.  Or to put it another way:

'What is right is whatever advances my agenda; and what is wrong is whatever impedes my agenda.'  To say: There are no absolutes.  Everything is relative.  In the Dems's rulebook.  Which instructs, a la Saul Alinsky: Whatever It Takes.  By Any Means Necessary.  Lie, cheat, steal.  Kill.  Whatever it takes, to accomplish your goal.  The end justifies the means.  Any and all means.....

How can we cure the Dems of this affliction??

I've got an idea.

Nationwide laws, both federal and state - with the federal laws activated in all federal elections at the minimum (but including state elections as well, since we are talking about U.S. citizens, and their rights, in both instances ) - deporting on the spot any noncitizen caught voting in U.S. elections, with ICE agents present at the precincts to activate the law.  And the argument?:

The Democrats say - in very fact, scoff: 'Widespread voting fraud is not happening.'  Okay.   No need to worry about such a law affecting anything to any great degree, then.  So, objection overruled.

Simple.

In fact,

the very definition of simplicity.

To help stop these arrogant assholes, these scurrilous shitheads in their behavior, from having disenfranchised U.S. citizens the way they have.

No other country would allow noncitizens to vote in their elections.  Why should we???...

'Voter suppression'.  My Aunt Fanny.  The only persons that such measures - and others, of an Election Integrity nature - would be 'suppressing' from voting are those that shouldn't be voting in the first place.

Grrrrrr..................................

In this same vein, and cleaned up a little for wider public consumption:

from thehollywoodconservative.us: ‘Jeff Sessions is COMING AFTER California for their dangerous ’Sanctuary State’ policy’ - Amanda Head - March 7

..

People here banging on AG Sessions for his seeming lack of action, and I sympathize with the feeling; but we haven't seen the uncovering of those thousands of indictments yet. Personally, I will hold my concerns about Sessions until then.

As for CA's "dangerous 'Sanctuary State' policy": It should have fallen under federal law long ago. A Californian, but U.S. citizen first and foremost, I am angry beyond words at having had my vote, and that of my fellow U.S. citizens in this state, not only canceled out but swamped under by the invasion of illegal aliens that has been allowed to take place here, and the deliberate ease that has been made by the state's liberal governments, state and county, to get them on the voter registration rolls. It is a disgusting state of affairs, and I want to see it stopped. Now. So come on, Sessions. Do your duty.

...and a good note to end this 'theme' on:


from 1776 coalition com: ’Sessions to California: ‘There is no secession’ - March 7

Stan says:
Your comment is awaiting moderation. 

Now this is what I have been waiting to hear from AG Sessions. As a Californian, but an American citizen first and foremost, I have been damn angry about what has been going on in this state regarding its welcome to IAs, and this business of declaring it a ‘sanctuary state’ was the last straw.  Give’em hell, Jeff.

Grrrrrrrrr.............................

(Rowe is moderator of a show called ‘How The Universe Works’ on the Science Channel.  Some woman took him to task for being an “anti-education, science doubting, ultra-right wing conservative” who should be fired.  Apparently her rant was triggered particularly because he has questioned the AGW narrative.  Like any good scientific-minded person should.  Randall came to Rowe’s defense; but in a way that acknowledged that Rowe didn’t really need anybody to do that.  He can take care of himself pretty nicely, thank you.)

(Your comment is awaiting moderation.)

Nice comeback by Mike Rowe, nice article. Thanks, Randall.

Rebecca’s rant most be in particular about the Anthropogenic Global Warming issue. I wonder if and when she will ever understand that that meme has been provided by the Trilateral Commission, in order for the NWO crowd to take over the planet, and put it under the thumb – or rather, the foot – of the very people that she would apparently despise, if she ever understood how these things work. But, live and learn.

And best, really, to keep a skeptical mind in it all, Rebecca. Question everything. You”ll be better off, in the long run, if you do.

Now, about how many galaxies there are in the known universe. And that’s just the KNOWN universe…

Thanks for covering this, Mac.


Terrible, terrible stuff going on in this country.  A page out of the workbook of the Stasi East Germany regime, or the former USSR, or today's Red China.  That it would happen in this country could have been anticipated, and guarded against, by a suitably alert citizenry.  But we can still rise to the occasion.  With the help of such sites, and articles, as this one. Pass it on.
