The Web Bot Project And 2012.

Note from Vince: I mistakenly omitted my source for this article which is another blog: http://aphroditeastrology.com/ - While some of you may be displeased to find that this writer is a new-ager and in fact not a Christian source, I remind you that there are 6 prophecies regarding this date including Christianity and Islam. It may be important to bear in mind that God is trying to get our attention. The link to the site above does partake in some heavy discussion on items such as the Tarot. Visit there at your own discretion. If you are a fellow former Witch or practicer of other Magick, I advise avoiding the old ways or links to occultic practices. Cheers! -V

The date 2012 has been popping up alot lately suggesting a catostrophic world event could happen in that year. Recently, I uncovered an article that adds yet another "coincidence" to our already long list. That being another affirmation that 2012 may be a terrible year. The article posts many of the prophecys from different sources that all agree about 2012. Article follows.

The Web Bot Project and 2012

Maybe some of you have heard of The Web Bot Project, but for those of you who have not, it's quite intriguing.

The Web Bot Project, developed in the late 1990's, was created to assist in making stock market predictions.

The technology uses a system of spiders to crawl the Internet and search for keywords, much like a search engine does. When a keyword is located, the bot program takes a snapshot of the text preceding and following the keyword. This snapshot of text is sent to a central location where it is then filtered to define meaning.

But in 2001, bot operators began to notice that stock market predictions were not the only matters being accurately predicted by the program. They began to take notice of coincidence with occurrences and explored it further.

One of the first accurate predictions from the bot program took place in June of 2001. The program predicted that a life altering event would take place within the next 60-90 days. An occurrence of such proportion that it's effects would be felt worldwide. The program based it's prediction on "web chatter" which ultimately represents the collective unconscious of society.

Regrettably, the bot program's prediction proved accurate and the Twin Towers fell on 9/11/2001.

Here's where it starts to become very interesting. The bot program also predicts a worldwide calamity taking place in the year 2012. For those of you who study astrology, prophecies, and the like, you may already be familiar with this date.

The Mayans were considered great "seers" and built a society that focused it's studies on time, synchronicity, and consciousness. The Mayan calendar predicts that mankind will end in the year 2012. A period which also signifies the end of the current era in the Mayan calendar.

Similar predictions have been derived from the I Ching or China's "Book of Changes." The I Ching was written in 2800 B.C. and is revered to this day in China. A gentlemen by the name of Terrence McKenna studied the I Ching intensely and began to see a pattern emerging. From that pattern he produced a time line graph and called it the "Time Wave Zero" theory.

Terrence's time line derived from the I Ching ended in the year 2012 - December 21, 2012 to be exact. The winter solstice.

Even more intriguing is the fact that there is scientific evidence that points to a very rare astrological occurrence taking place the year of 2012. For milena, the Mayans believed in the existence of a dark rift in the center of the Milky Way and considered it fact. Only recently did modern scientists discover that it actually does exist.

In the center of our galaxy is a black hole. And in the year 2012, the sun and the earth will be in direct alignment with this black hole. Scientist speculate that magnetic shifts could take place as a result. In essence, the poles could reverse. The poles have shifted before, some 800 million years ago. Einstein suggested this pole shifting theory in 1955.

Now I'm sure many of you have heard of Merlin the magician. Merlin was a Celtic shaman that many of his day considered a "crazed man of the forest." As a result, during those times he was referred to as "Merlin the Wild." But what many don't realize is that Merlin was considered Europe's greatest oracle or "seer."

Merlin predicted that the planets will "run riot" through the constellations. Completely off their normal paths of rotation. Scientists speculate that if this were to happen, it would be a result of the earth changing it's rotation - or the poles shifting.

Merlin also predicted that the use of "talking stones" would be taking place during this time. For those of you who don't know, stone is the basis of our modern technology. Quartz in particular. Quartz technology is used in cell phones as well as computers. Silicone quartz stores information that can then be retrieved.

Another interesting side note to this, that I will be discussing in an upcoming post, is the use of quartz by the Mayans. The Mayans coveted what were known as the crystal skulls. Skulls carved from natural quartz crystal. They claimed the skulls "talked" to them and gave them information. Could it be that they actually did? Based on our knowledge of the capabilities of quartz crystal and it's uses for information storage and retrieval - it seems quite possible. Hewlett Packard studied the skulls in 1970 and their results were startling.

The Hopi Indian tribe, the oldest tribe in the United States, believed that the world has been created and destroyed four times previously. The Hopi's believe that we are on the brink of the Fifth World. They predicted that this occurrence would be preceded by submersion (rising waters), the sun getting hotter (global warming), and earth occurrences (hurricane's, tornadoes, and mass flooding).

The Hopi's also predicted that the world at this time would be criss-crossed by a spider web, which could be likened to the Internet. They believed that the end of the Fourth World would be followed by the beginning of the Fifth World. The evolution of life requires violence.

Seems that these beliefs are in line with the predictions made from one of the greatest book of prophecies ever written - the Bible. And the Book of Revelations, in particular, written by John the Apostle.

The History Channel created a special that touches on this very subject titled: Doomsday 2012, The End of Days. It further explores the significance of this date in ancient prophecies, texts, and writings.

Technology Will Kill Us All

The 2oth century brought us the two worst inventions in mankind's history. It's not the automobile nor the radio or even the television. The two worst inventions of the 20th century are the cell phone and the GPS Navigational System. Here's why.

The first is the cell phone. It used to be if someone couldn't reach you, they just couldn't reach you and would have to wait. Now these people call your phone at all hours, regardless of your location, ringing your phone everywhere from the car to church. And getting your voicemail will not suffice, if they can't reach you, they keep calling back until you answer. For me, I don't answer my phone and if you persist, I shut the phone off. I'm busy, deal with it. This small but influential invention has encouraged an already increasingly rude society to become even more rude and self centered. While some will argue it has allowed us to communicate even better, I argue it has done nothing but give us another item to lug around and be bothered with. We were fine without them and when the first came out they were simply a novelty. Now, not only do people insist they need them, but this "phone" isn't good enough unless it comes with an ob board MP3 Player, Internet access and a host of other things people don't need.

Navigational systems are bad, bad, bad, and anyone who argues they are good is not only insane, but he's fooling himself. Setting aside the idea that it makes it possible for "Big Brother" to track your every move, we now are slowly losing our ability to perform basic tasks like read a map or use a compass. Being reliant on technology for these kinds of tasks is just not a good idea, period.

Now, why are these two items evil? Well, both use GPS or "Global Positioning Systems" making the potential to turn them into human lo jack systems even greater. However, further than that, mankind is further losing his ability to survive. The more technology we allow to do work for us, right down to the laptop I am using to type this now, the less likely we are to survive in the event that this medium is disabled by an enemy. This, is a bad place to be.

What I've done to resist this: I refuse to give in to the navigational system craze. It's map or nothing for me. Let everyone else be baffled about how to plot a trip without a computer. Yes, I have a cell phone, but I got it for ME, not other people. If people insist on bugging me, off it goes. I simply won't be a slave to technology.

Also, I have antique radios along with radios with a backup hand-crank chargeable battery. TV? Nope. All I need is a shortwave with self sufficient abilities that can pick up long distance broadcasts. Survival also narrows down to learning basic skills such as making soap, candles, killing animals for food, and learning skills dead for over 100 years.

If we are end times people, we need to act like it. We need to re-learn the old ways, not completely abandon self sufficient skills making us completely dependant on technology. Such an answer is not a good one.

RIAA, Viacom, and the Big Guys Strike Again

From Live365 Forums:

Despite all the arguments made by the Internet radio industry, e.g. Live365’s CEO Mark Lam’s testimony last April at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on digital radio urging the Committee to help create a level competitive playing field for broadcast, cable, satellite and Internet radio (go here for video and written versions of his testimony: http://www.digmedia.org/content/release.cfm?id=25&content=news), the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) has reportedly adopted the new per performance royalty rates put forth by SoundExchange.

It was reported that the new per performance royalty rates for the years from 2006 through 2010 would be $0.0008, $0.0011, $0.0014, $0.0018, and $0.0019, respectively, representing an increase over the existing rate ($0.000762) of 5%, 44%, 84%, 136%, and 149%, respectively, and a year-over-year increase of 5%, 38%, 27%, 29%, and 6%, respectively.

This would undoubtedly impose a grave challenge to the development of Internet radio. From the moment the news broke—and even in the months leading up to the CRB's decision, Live365 has been proactively working on resolving any possible negative effects of the potential royalty rates change, on behalf of our broadcasters and listeners and in cooperation with other DiMA (the Digital Media Association) members and the Internet radio industry at large.

In the days and months to come, Live365 expects to take a series of measures to combat the challenges imposed by the new royalty rates. We will keep you posted of the progress. Before the CRB and Live365 make any formal announcements, however, we ask you to please stay calm and refrain from passing any false speculations and premature judgments.

As far as the X5000 broadcasting package is concerned, we haven’t heard anything about a possible raise in the Small Webcaster royalty minimum premium of $2000 per calendar year, although many believe the CRB may not adopt a new rate for Small Webcasters (although there is no guarantee at this time). Again, please don’t panic before anything is confirmed.

In the meantime, you may want to contact your local Congressmen and Congresswomen. Make your voice heard by the lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

It seems clear that RIAA wants total control. This is why a monopoly is bad. Right now Sirius and XM are trying to merge. No doubt RIAA is involved in that as well. In the months to come we can expect this beast start really limiting what we have access too. Beyond the miracle of Streamcasting via Live365, You Tube, Mediaplex, and God Tube there is also Podcasting - and with Apple Computer behind it, RIAA especially has a fight on it's hands to kill the Podcasting market. Think of it, Apple is at the Wheel, but advertisers have access to some of the casts that grow in popularity. This creates an all out Big Business civil war.

What RIAA PROBABLY wants:

Total manipulative control over all sound recordings, chart directions, and new trends in music, removing the possibility of a free thinking listener base which in turn ensures all music trends will be totally up to them. This means:

Control of ALL Radio - The genres it plays, and what which jocks play them.

Destruction of Streamcasting - Other media outlets along with RIAA such as Viacom have imposed serious time limits on Mediaplex, You Tube, and even God Tube - media cannot be longer than 10 minutes in length. However, all copywritten material must be removed and accounts that insist on uploading copywritten material must be deleted. Therefore, why the strict 10 minute program restriction? And how did such a law pass?

It's clear that the corrupt owners of major labels and broadcasting outlets are trying to create a minimized monopoly where only the "big names" are in control and the little guy can go to hell. Do they really expect us to continually buy their poorly manufactured and costantly regurgitated recycled crap? This is more serious than I think most realize.

Also involved, our government. Many Americans believe a George Orwell scenario is looming overhead. Clearly, the government could use this situation to put a serious damper on what exactly is heard through our internet. It will be interesting to see if they vote on the side of the little guy or the greedy, corrupt, and clearly evil Big Business trying to control all media outlets.

Imus: FIRED! - AND Racism In America - The Reality

New York Times:

CBS brought a weeklong confrontation over a racial and sexual insult by the radio host Don Imus to an end yesterday when it canceled the “Imus in the Morning” program, effective immediately.

Skip to next paragraph

David Karp/Associated Press

Don Imus left his apartment building in Manhattan Wednesday after learning that CBS Radio, his longtime employer, had dismissed him.

The move came a day after the cable television network MSNBC, a General Electric unit that has simulcast Mr. Imus’s radio program for the last 10 years, removed the show from its morning lineup. The two moves, taken together, mean that Mr. Imus, who has been broadcasting the program for more than 30 years, no longer has a home on either national radio or television.

And now we get to see how far the hypocrisy of the left wing goes!

Don Imus has never exactly lit the world on fire with his radio show. Those of us who don't get him, don't listen long. His racial slur on the air - referring to the Rutgers Atheletes as "nappy haired hos" - was far from appropriate. However far more has been tolerated on the air than this which in reality is not that much.

Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are a couple of bats in the belfry. Both are responsible for racism becoming a black on white issue and this smoke screen of targeting rap artists next is just filler.

The issue of racism has switched sides, and white people are supposed to live in constant pennance of an act carried out 130 years ago. I for one, being Irish, refuse to apologize since my people were the target of discrimination during the early 1900's. "Irish Need Not Apply" - remember those signs? My family were not slave owners, we were actually fellow victims of discrimination. Alas, our skin is of pale pursuasion, so therefore, the bigots of the black world had deemed us part of the problem.

Racists.

Cheap Europeans

One of the big attractions to visiting America for Europeans is the fact that the Euro is kicking our dollar's ass, and therefore, even with a plane ticket (so they claim) it is cheaper to come here and make all their big purchases where their money goes farther. Well, shoot, I would do the same thing.

Only recently, I witnessed haggling - yes haggling - between one of these Europeans and a Walmart manager over a DVD / VCR combo. Seems Walmart was out of the cheaper model so this cheap euro-trash was trying to convince a Walmart manager they needed to knock down of the Magnavox model that was 10$ more - DOWN 10$ - because the cheaper model was out.

Wait, let me get this straight.

Your Euro is kicking the dollar's ass, you can buy everything almost 30% cheaper, and you have the nerve to haggle over 10$?

This is actually more than that. See, the arrogance of the rich is far-reaching. It seems the more wealth you have, the tighter you pinch a penny. In the case of the Europeans, they actually travel intercontinentally to save a buck. The arrogance of haggling a price at Walmart over 10 bucks is mind blowing. Heck, the idea of haggling at Walmart period is really kind of mindless. People get a life. It's Walmart, it doesn't get cheaper.

Come to think of it, many of these idiots are totally ignorant to the fact that if they were given half the chance, they would haggle Walmart right into bankruptcy.

Hmm....

Rock The Truth: American Warriors

Typical Liberal Rehtoric, failing to see the whole picture, and not really giving a damn how people might feel on the subject. It's clear, because he has his comments closed. You can't voice your disgust, or agreement - however misguided - with him. He can't even post real information about himself. Another one whining about how we should "cut and run". He links to a picture of a girl who lost her hubby in the war. A picture posted originally by the Boston Glob to exploit pain to further a cause who's time never came, and the clear-headed Christian disagrees with. But then, we are the hateful minority in the eyes of Liberalism.

This same clown, no doubt, buys into the "controlled demolition" conspiracy floating around the 9/11 terrorist attack. America sucks, we all deserve death. These people should be run out on a shutter. It starts with our fine Liberal congressmen who constantly berate our military. Many followers of Liberalism are sheep, and go whichever way they are turned, In response, I quote Abe Lincoln:

"Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartimes that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged."

Prepare For Disaster, But Use Common Sense.

Lady Lake, Florida - Rescuers stopped searching for bodies on Saturday and survivors dug out from under Florida's deadliest storm system in almost a decade, authorities said, after a tornado reportedly killed 20 people.

US President George W Bush declared a state of emergency in four counties after pre-dawn storms on Friday carved a trail of destruction and death, wrapping metal around trees and launching some victims into neighbouring homes. -News24.com

And in the wake of it all, people across Florida raced to their local Radio Shack, Walmart, Target - to purchase an emergency alert weather radio. One that sounds an alarm in the face of a major weather event. Sales on these radios quadrupled for 2 days while people attempted to "prepare" for this new random act of nature that has happened twice in 3 months - but was previously a non-sequitor for Florida.

However, nobody thought to prepare beyond purchasing another piece of technology. Well, maybe a few people did. What exactly? A contingency plan. A tornado warning only gives you a short window of maybe 15 minutes to wake up from a dead sleep, gather your family and get out quickly. Technology only works with a bit of common sense. Due to the death of the hunter / gatherer, people less frequently look past basic technology for basic survival. They falsely believe that an alert radio will give them security and save them from disaster. Maybe for an oncoming thunder storm, but not a tornado that hits like lightening, and leaves zero room for error or lack of planning.

When preparing for the coming storm, there is no wrong in purchasing equipment that will alert you trouble is on the way. However, buying a weather alert radio without planning on what to do should it go off is like buying a shotgun, but not bothering with the purchase of bullets. It's useless. One may as well have not purchased the radio at all and saved themselves $50.00.

So get your family together, make an escape plan as you would for a house fire. Let them know in an event such as a tornado, you only have a small window to get to safety. Also, make a note of where they say the storm is going so you don't drive right into it. In all of it, be prepared with 100% effort. Don't rely on Radio Shack to rescue you.

Countdown to Destiny.

It's amazing how people deny what dances right before them. We are on the brink of WWIII - if we are not already in it. Global Warming, which is debated with more emotion than facts - is pointing to biblical prophecies about disease, catastrophe, and events of unseen proportions. Still, people deny it.

The Children of Issac and Ishmael have been fighting since Exodus, demanding territory, demanding restitution. What people don't realize is this is classic sibling rivalry. Yes, the Jews and the Muslims are brothers. The children of Issac and the children of Ishmael.

But even further. This earth is full of hate, and what is mind blowing is all these attempts to prove we are from apes have ever done are create and fuel the hate fire. How? Because if we reintroduce the God equation, realize we all came from Adam and Eve, and that the Earth isn't fifty billion years old, we make hate totally hypocritical and stupid. An idiots manifesto. That makes us all brothers and sisters.

But because Man hates answering to God, and he has tried to eliminate God from the equation scientifically, failing on every front - there is more proof and solid evidence of creationism than there ever was of evolution - we find ourselves playing right into God's hands and master plan.

The bible is loaded with proof that has already withstood the test of time, man is simply blind.

Global Warming - Not Just A Political Trend - But Biblical.

So Rush was on his show today yucking it up over the idea of Global Warming, as many repuklicans do. He eluded to a moronic Liberal report that suggests Global Warming is a contributing factor to terrorism. That Osama Bin Laden says another reason America must be judged is because we are the chief contributors to Global Warming. Osama cited our outright disinterest in the Kyoto treaty as proof we simply don't give a damn. For that I submit the following:



As you see the facts clearly state the United States voted Unanimously to not ratify the treaty - both sides of the aisle. And the 2nd biggest contributor - China - was exempt from the treaty. Does Osama have the nerve to attack them? No. They will flatten Islam and Islam knows it. It's easier to join the rest of the World in attacking the biggest super power because that's what this is really about.

Global warming may be cited as being an issue of the left, but the fact is, it's biblical. Dr. Carl Baugh from creation evidences says: "Someone wound this thing up. And I know that who ever wound this thing up doesn't come back and wind it up again, we are in trouble." (Paraphrased from an exact quote).

The natural progression of man leads us to the return of Christ. It's just the way it is. The oceans will melt, weather will continue to get more violent, volcanic activity will be on the increase, and so will earthquakes. Anyone who denies Global Warming in the face of all of this hasn't read the bible. It's sad to say, the bible agrees with Al Gore.

Just think of this, the threat of the planet becoming un-inhabitable either through Global Warming, a freak asteroid or comet, or a number other of threats only preventable by a deity should lead you to hope: "Man, there better be a God."

Trust me, there is.

Racism? Or Truth?

This was a bulliten posted on Myspace:

You have the United Negro College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah.
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.

If we had WET(White Entertainment Television), we'd be racists.
If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists.
If we had white history month, we'd be racists.
If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists.
If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships, you know we'd be racists.

You use the term Nigger, but would beat a white guy for using it.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You call me "Cracker," "Honkey," "Whitey" "The Man" and you think it's okay.

But when I call you "Kike," "Towelhead," "Sand Nigger," "Camel Jockey," "Beaner" or "Chink" you call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it.
But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.

I am white.
I am proud.

How often do you hear that?

Now, In received a response from this immature, and far left wacko so-called Program Director from A Rhode Island Radio Station (who has been playing me since 2006, and it's a long story). Here is her response:

Vince, this is absolutely disgusting and offensive.

It's clear you have no idea what you're talking about -- and spreading this kind of message goes against everything you espouse as a supposed "Christian" ...

Shame on you.

There are a few things that will blackball you on my part faster than anything. One of them is trying to force on me your understanding of Christianity and put me in your little Liberal God Box. But I'm not going there, instead, let me play the game of debate. Let's pick this bad boy apart and see which parts via the common sense train are actually untrue (this bulletin was not a editorial written by me, I merely re posted).

You have the United Negro College Fund. -
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah.
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.

If we had WET(White Entertainment Television), we'd be racists. -Absolutely, without question, true.

If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists. - Again, nothing false about this statement. Liberals would ask why I would even want a white pride day, that it's far too Nazi in idealism, but that's what they want. For it to be racism on my part and not theirs.

If we had white history month, we'd be racists. - Why don't we have at least a European History month? Is our background less important based on the fact that 150 years ago some of us had slaves? I don't get it....

If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists. - I will agree that for the time being Whites need no help advancing, however with things like Affirmative Action, this will soon be untrue.

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships, you know we'd be racists. - We should do this out of fairness, impoverished white people are no less important as any other minority.

You use the term Nigger, but would beat a white guy for using it. - NO ONE, I repeat, NO ONE should use this disgusting term anywhere for any reason. The fact blacks use it at all is just hypocritical.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You call me "Cracker," "Honkey," "Whitey" "The Man" and you think it's okay. - Blacks using reverse racism in the name of comedy, or to get even, are lowering themselves to the deplorable standards of white racists of the early 21st century.

But when I call you "Kike," "Towelhead," "Sand Nigger," "Camel Jockey," "Beaner" or "Chink" you call me a racist. - No comment, this kind of speaks for itself.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live? - Bill Cosby answered this quite well. Basically, he said people in that demographic have the mindset that the wealthy owe them, and therefore, live off welfare, and never apply themselves.


You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it.
But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists. -Actually, if you are smart, you not only avoid any mention of any kind of pride, but you kick yourself for being the descendant of a dirt bag.

I am white.
I am proud.

How often do you hear that?

If you are smart, you are Irish, English, German, but never white. This kind of steals the left-wing's thunder. Instead of screaming white pride, you are going back to your roots. This plays on a more universal law and less of a "inside the box" ideal.

So who are the real racists? Black Leaders. The Reverend Al Sharpton, the Reverend Jessi Jackson. I've seen racism, un-provoked, rise up when minorities outnumber "whites". I saw a girl at a day-care get victimized by a group of black co-workers in disgusting ways just because they were the majority.

The problem damn well creates itself. I'm Irish. I didn't own slaves, I was the victim of racism in the early 1900's. I cannot and will not be held responsible for something that happened 150 years ago, and I will not take your crap. I will be your brother, but not your victim.

If this makes me less of a Christian by Liberal standards (whatever the hell THOSE are), then PRAISE GOD.

The Foot Print of the American Chicken.

"War! Huh! Good God, ya'll, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing!"

"Sending in five brigades amounts to no more than combating the symptoms, if it remains at such a gesture. This will not correct a failing policy. Bush is proposing more of the same and avoiding what is most important: a change of course with a view to security and stability." - RSC HANDELSBLAD

"US President Bush's speech... reminded us of former President Nixon... Increasing US troop numbers in Iraq is a risky bet. Does the president still intend to close his eyes to this reality? The United States was forced to make a dishonourable withdrawal in the end of the Vietnam War. Will the country not repeat its failure in Iraq as well?" -ASAHI SHIMBUN

Let's remind ourselves that the reason we didn't get much accomplished in Viet Nam, and the reason we do not now has nothing to do with Bush, but rather, the socialist manifesto. "War must be, as everything else is now, politically correct." Hmm. The last time I checked the very idea of war is politically incorrect. How exactly does one take the idea of slaughtering thousands of your enemy in order to prevent him from terrorizing the world, and make it politically correct?

The Peace crowd has always, and will always, miss the primary reason for war. So those same people will still wake up tomorrow in a country where they can strap on their sandals, pack their hemp tote bag, grab their latte, and protest anything. They forget that because people die in the interest of freedom, they are allowed to protest. They would, no doubt, complain were we in danger of losing the same freedoms because we decided to replace all 50 stars with 50 peace signs and never fight a battle again, were taken away and we did nothing to stop it. A country overrun with people who bring peace to the forefront of their ideals, and make it priority over all else, even defending their own freedom, will soon be overcome.

Further, they completely, and quite rudely, forget the sacrifice left on the alter of freedom made by our brave men and women by dismissing all of their efforts as needless and pointless. As for me, I cannot get out of my head the shouts of "Thank you Mr. Bush!" when the tanks first rolled into Baghdad.

The Lap of Luxury?

It has been a long time since I posted on this blog, and to be honest when I started .12 gauge back in 2003, it was a different time and I was a different man. It's now 2007, the world is spinning out of control, and what gets me the most, people are in denial of it. We seem to be marching head-on into a showdown with Lucifer himself, all the pawns are either in or close to their proper position, and people simply dismiss followers of "the way" off with simple phrases like, "It's all coincidence," or, "Religion isn't for me."

Regardless, I want to make a point on this blog about a few "innovations" that have happened in the last 30 years that may have convenience us, but they also put us totally at the mercy of "Big Brother". And whether you believe "Big Brother" is the U.S. Government, or you believe that it is the E.U. (this is my personal belief), you may not have seen any of these advances as bad things until I point them out here. Let's start with the earliest innovations, shall we? Lets wind our clocks back to about 1983.

1983. Industry - Automotive - Innovations: Fuel Injection, Computer Modules, O2 Sensors, Map Sensors.

Why these advances are good:
Decreased emissions, easier starts in climates that get extremely cold. Overall cleaner enviorment, alleged increased gas mileage.

Why these advances are bad:
The end of the "backyard mechanic". No one can reasonably service their own vehicle. The automotive industry furthers this pursuit for years, it has even become so bad that in some makes and models of cars built in the new millennium, one cannot even change their own wiper blades. The consumer is now totally reliant on a mechanic of even the simplest tasks.

Why the original "technology" is superior to the new technology:
While Carburetors are flaky and require constant maintenance, they are user serviceable. In addition, no one at a master switch anywhere (some new models of cars come with a security device that phones home speeding and reckless driving violations, and it has been theorized that the same box could be used to shut an engine down) can shut down a 95% mechanical car down. Also, cars in this vintage require much cheaper parts. A 2003 F150 With an inline 6 Fuel Pump: $193.00 - A 1973 F100 with an Inline 6 Fuel Pump: $26.79

1981 - The Cell Phone.
Most current mobile phones connect to a cellular network of base stations (cell sites), which is in turn interconnected to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) (the exception are satellite phones). Fully automatic cellular networks were first introduced in the early to mid 1980s (the 1G generation). The first fully automatic cell phone system was the Nordic Mobile Telephone (NMT) system, introduced in 1981. -Wikipedia

Why This Advancement Is Good:
In the event of an emergency, you can easily reach someone with ease - be it an actual emergency - EG: stranded in a blinding snowstorm because your carburetor froze. Or a perceived emergency. EG: "Oh crap, I forgot broccoli at the store, better call hubby to fetch it..." Businesses benefit for obvious reasons.

Why this advancement is bad:
You no longer have any privacy. People are insistent on reaching you and will call over and over again until you answer, regardless of your location (like the restroom). People on cell phones are rude and obnoxious, they talk loud and ignore common etiquette. Phones go off in theaters, restaurants, even church. Despite repeated requests, these same people refuse to so much as turn their ringer off. Numerous traffic accidents can be blamed on people talking while driving. Also, modern cell phones have GPS, in a one world government scenario, you are basically lo-jacked and someone, with a few adjustments to technology, can know the location of every human being everywhere. The cell phone was possibly the worst invention of the 20th century.

This is just the beginning, I plan point by point of taking on even more of our "modern" marvels" to prove that the Hunter-Gatherer is being buried under a mountain of perceived "luxury" items. I say, back to basics. This isn't "the government is coming for you", this is more like, "If America goes down in the event of a major terrorist attack you better be able to fend for yourself, because as hurricane Katrina proved, no one is coming to help.

The Conspiracy.

When I crack open the paper, I expect a few things. One is everything I read is at least 50% b.s. The second is whatever I read, I need to remember that the writer has an agenda, hence, see rule number 1. I live in a Commonwealth where the 2nd biggest offender in the lies and propaganda arena resides: The Boston Globe. They will argue that I'm just part of the vast right wing conspiracy and that's all well and good except that I am Libertarian.

I don't really like either party. I think one of my people should get into office and hand out pink slips and disband at least 30% of congress. There's an old saying about too many cooks stirring the pot. Well, I think we're there.

The biggest offense on the conservative side is that big business is allowed to rape and plunder whoever, whenever they want. On the Liberal side, well, they've flat been hijacked by communists in disguise. People who want to slaughter the unborn on completely selfish pretenses, people who want to take my money and redistribute it to others they have completely convinced are unable - for one reason or another - to do it themselves. Lies.

This is America, and our forefathers had a different idea. Their idea was: "You can do anything you want, the opportunities are endless! Just put your mind to it, and get going!" Nobody even cares anymore about opportunity. It's all about selfishness and letting everyone else do things for you. It's the reason only 30% of America bothers to go to the polls.

The Far Left and the Great Hijacking

When a left wing talk show host goes on the air and denounces the actions of his own party, you know damn well there is an issue. When speaker after speaker uses a historical woman's memorial service to have a Bush roast, you can no longer have any doubt, the true Democrats have had their party hijacked.

This is beyond a matter of a few vocal minorities causing us all to roll our eyes in disbelief. This has escalated into a full-on "let the rise of communism begin" pep-rally. Hey, everyone knows I am a Libertarian and don't exactly think Bush is sitting in the White House splitting atoms, but no moron in this country has the right to do what is being done to ANY sitting president.

Further, I am sick of agenda. It's everywhere. It's on the sitcoms. It's in the movies. I can't go anywhere without being told I should embrace the gay lifestyle and welcome them to church family while understanding the selfish desires of Liberal women who want to slaughter the unborn just because they have a right to be complete sluts.

Yes, it's true. The Democrats have been hijacked.

Claire McNamara Needs To Dissapear.

(CBS4) LANCASTER The widow of a volunteer Lancaster firefighter might sue several towns that responded to the fire in which her husband was killed.

Claire McNamara has notified six communities she may go ahead with wrongful death suits.

McNamara previously led a successful fight to get death benefits for families of volunteer firefighters in Massachusetts.

Martin McNamara was killed fighting a fire in Lancaster in November 2003. But his family was not allowed to collect death benefits, because he was a volunteer. Town voters then rejected a tax override that would have given Claire McNamara and her family an annuity.

With help from Governor Romney, she took her fight statewide. Last month, he signed a law which gave them a $650,000 annuity and guarantees death benefits to families of volunteer firefighters.

Lancaster was reportedly one of the towns being eyed as possible targets of a wrongful death lawsuit. But Claire McNamara’s lawyer said workers compensation laws prohibit that because her husband was a town employee.

Some residents are upset by talk of a suit because they worked hard to obtain benefits for McNamara's family.

Only now:
Lawyer says town of Lancaster can't be sued

WPRI Fox 12 LANCASTER, Mass. The town of Lancaster cannot be sued if the widow of a firefighter pursues wrongful death suits.

Right smack dab in the middle of this obvious money grabbing scheme, Claire forgot how firefighters came from not just from around the area, but around the nation when her heroic husband perished in the fire that fateful night in 2003. Claire has used this tradgedy as a get rich scheme and caused a good town with good people to have it's name drug through dirt.

Last year, Boston Rock affiliate WAAF, responding to news reports - sorry - half assed and poorly reasearched LIBERAL PROPAGANDA - bombarded the town of Lancaster with hate riddled rhetoric and sent one Mistress Carrie (not even 1/10th as badass as our own Mistress Lisa) to raise money for the already quite comfortable Claire McNamara who refuses to disclose the total dollar amount she has received both in public and private donations. The arguement from Mistress Carrie was, "He was a firefighter, you should worship him and his wife because of it." Shut up you mindless bitch, do some research on the town bio next time.

Here it is: Lancaster is roughly 50% tax exempt. Between a college in town plus all of the property they own, and the large number of churches in town, the slack is expected to be picked up the other 50% who own real estate and land. Every year the town has a crisis in the budget and pushes proposition 2 1/2 override. Sometimes people vote for it, sometimes against.

When Claire's situation came to the board, and they put it up for a vote rather than taking the responsibility for the decision for themselves, they put everyone in an awkward position. The next day, the papers all read headlines similar to: "Lancaster to McNamara Widow: Go to Hell", "REJECTED", "Not This Time, Bitch!", among other hateful and totally false headlines. What happened?

Well, they had just passed another Prop 2.5, property tax has also been raised, people were paying through the nose. This was just one more thing. You can only tax people so much before they run out of money, and, contrary to popular belief, Lancaster is not inhabited by the wealthy. The petty cash fund had run dry for most citizens. Between the fact that Claire wouldn't state how much money had been donated to her and her family and town politics that are quite unlike anything else anywhere, people had a foul taste in their mouth and felt they were being scammed.

Now this week, they get notice. Firefighters in 6 towns were bitch slapped by Claire. People who bent over backwards the Christmas of Marty's death, pouring heaps of gifts and contributions onto the McNamara kids so they could have a merry Christmas despite the grief have now all been slapped by a woman who is again and again proving she is selfish and a gold digging piece of filth.

Her Lawyer tried to divert blame to himself, being a lawyer he is used to it, but everyone sees through this. Even Claire's own family are asking themselves, "Why is she doing this?!" Why indeed.

Tune into Rant Radio Thursday, for I will take her Lawyer to the mat. The time has come for the good people of Lancaster to stop being crapped on by this ingrateful woman.

The Miracle Of Christmas.

Last year, organizations from the ACLU to the likes of Macy's tried to destroy Christmas. They banned Christmas programming, disallowed the "offensive" wishing of "Merry Christmas", and kicked the Salvation Army bell ringers from certain shopping centers as now even Santa Claus has been deemed offensive as he does not visit Pagan, Jewish, Atheist, Agnostic or Muslim Households (these are the actual reasons cited).

The problem is, Christmas is not under government control. It is not under the control of any man on this planet. Rather, the miracle of Christmas is a miracle because it is God's reminder to us of a promise made by him through his son, Jesus Christ. As such, it cannot be negated, cancelled, or otherwise controlled by ANY group or organization. What is the miracle of Christmas?

It is when a runaway child returns home on the holidays yearning for her parents' love. It is when people give freely to charities for some unknown reason. It is when a homeless person, through the kindness of a "good Samaritan" gets a new lease on life with the help of a job corp, some new clothes, and a place to stay because someone gave money that wound up creating such a miracle. It is when a Church visits the elderly who might otherwise be spending Christmas alone because family has passed.

The miracle of Christmas is the working of God himself. No one can take away any act of God.

I Mean, Come On...

Can someone explain why we are all up in arms about a Runaway Bride? And I mean a GOOD answer? While we have Racists protesting a Holocaust memorial in Boston, a free-for-all at the Mexico boarder, and Liberals saying parents have no right to know if their 13 year old daughter is getting an abortion, the media wants to worry about a runaway bride?

I realize that this country is really fascinated with everyone else's business and can't keep out noses out of it all, but in the grand scheme of things, a runaway bride is the least of our problems. Who cares? She got cold feet, she was NOT the reason a missing person investigation was launched (her rich father did that one), and she didn't murder anyone.

She got scared when she saw her face on the 6:00 news. Hell, I would too. Don't think I'd say I was abducted by anyone unless I could come up with something really good like, "...I was abducted by 3 Swiss business men and taken on board a Japanese submarine in Lake Michigan..."

I don't care what this girl did. Not my problem. I'm more concerned with Liberal pinheads deciding I'm not in charge of my kid anymore...

The Free State Project

The rebellion against Stalin-Esque Government Begins! Ironically, there is something (supposidly) in our Constitution that prohibits the over-throwing of government. So change it. I suppose there might be a fine line in there, but really, do you just let government do exactly what our fore-fathers DIDN'T want, and become a super-power?

The problem with the view on the Libertarian ideal is that most people napped through U.S. History and forgot that our country was raised on the principal of a free society with limited government and think we (the Libertarians) are all on crack...

The Democrats and Republicans alike view this as a major threat because the Republicans will no longer get rich, and the Democrats will no longer become powerful...

The way our forefathers intended it.

The Bogus Phone Company.

10 a day. That's what shows up on the caller ID. 10 "UNAVAILABLE" numbers a fricken' day. So I put in a call to the phone company and they tell me the number can't be traced, sorry... However, a call to the police suggests something entirely different. They say the number CAN be traced...

Well, after thinking about it long and hard, I decide that the phone company is giving me lip service and here's why. Whoever placed that call, whether through a machine or a human being (because when I answer the call, I get hung up on), gets billed for it. So someone in the system knows who it is.

If the person who placed that call had used it to make a hit go down, you know they would find him and prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law and the phone company would do "everything in their power to trace the call" or some well written statement to the public.

So let me get this straight, my privacy means JACK?! Here's my bigger issue. The 10 hang-ups a day don't bother me nearly as much as the privacy issue. I mean, someone can just make the number un-available and because Verizon is un-cooperative, I can't find out who they are.

Ok, high and mighty FCC, how about you make a new guideline that says ALL NUMBERS MUST POST ON ALL CALLER ID SYSTEMS! Instead of going after Floridian shock-jocks with the fervor of a horny 15 year old boy, why don't you do something about all the criminals in the telemarketing industry?

Or maybe it hasn't struck you that this "PRIVATE NAME / PRIVATE NUMBER" / "UNAVAILABLE" option we have out there could be used to abduct a poor little girl, rape her in a back ally and leave her for dead in a shallow grave somewhere in Yellowstone National Park. Then, NEVER FIND THE GUY because SELLING SOMETHING was more important than someone's life.

False Metal II

Man am I sick of snot nosed little brats trying to tell me how brilliant Nu-Metal is. Now they've decided Nu-Metal is an offensive term, so they want to call it Mallcore. Please. Give me a break or just drop dead.

To a teenager, everyone is wrong but him or her. I keep seeing this dumb arguement that Metal has always been experimental and therefore, Mallcore. Yeah, just don't crank Nightwish around me, Tarjan is a wuss because she's a Soprano. If it ain't screaming, it ain't REAL metal. This coming from kids who think Fred Durst is talented. I think I'm gonna puke.

I realize, yeah, their kids, and they really are dumb as a brick. Wouldn't know real talent if Tobias Sammet came and bashed them in the face with a shovel. Follow the crowd. Let radio dictate what your music collection looks like. I can't stand this. This is the product of the RIAA. Zombie youth who let "Scorch" from KZLL the ROCK of wherever tell them what music is cool.

Since I can't fathom kids right now because of their close-minded attitude, I will simply post these lyrics from "King Of Fools", because this song is SO about all of you.

"You feel at ease as you flock with the masses
What do you see with your heads in their asses
Keep on railing at what I believe Call me insane
and I am proud to be
And walk the wicked way..."
