18 preparing for the future 18

Afternoon......

Just barely.... a bit after mid day...

Saturday, 07 March, 2009....

Spent most of the morning diddling with my fone and computer, learning how to pass files... actually had some success.. amazing!

And such a moron about the tech too......

I got a little done last night, got some e-book files moved, and was able to read an Andre Norton short story I had never read in my life before, on my telephone at 2:am this morning...

Also got an email this morning from my best friend, his brother in law we went to school with, just got laid off, Monaco motor homes, Junction City Oregon, laid off about 1400 workers in one shot...... the guy's wife is only getting about 30 hrs a week at her job....

so add another house foreclosure to to list...
My friend is having a hard time, he groks whats happening, and says nobody will listen enough to prepare, they act like Zombies.....

which is why I write this blog, to Help the “Unknown Soldiers” know which way to jump....

Hey folks, I've seen it coming for years, got out 14 years ago, warned everybody I worked with, my friends etc. and just got a reputation for being a paranoid.... such a good reputation that at an arbitration I was involved in the Lawyer for Lane county commented I was an “Obvious Paranoid” which I found interesting as I'd said nothing related at the arbitration... meaning he had gotten the opinion from Management who had gotten it from hearing about what types of things I talked about with co-workers...

Well, I'm a comfy paranoid, enjoying a balmy breeze, eating bannock, some bananas later, a bath in the spring soon.....

While those who laughed behind my back are getting evicted from their houses and losing
jobs, cars and everything they own.....

Tried to tell ya.....

and its only going to get worse....

I believe Obama will do as much as possible, but I dont think it will be enough... it has to take it's course before even he can realize the magnitude of the problem and beging thinking outside the box......

The problem is the Big Lie is terminal.... meaning the only cure is the truth...

which is what I have written about for a couple of years now on this blog....

Things that I know will cure what ails humanity....

and also things that will help people reboot their lives in the right direction for what comes next...

The truth is this, it will take so long for the economy to fix itself, that climate change will make it a moot point.... if you hang onto the old life, you are dead meat.....

I heard on VOA the other night that “Drought” was expected for the US in the future, they meant serious drought, like dead cattle, no wheat, nothing to drink and the aquifers going away.... i.e. Squeeze rattle snakes, into your canteen....


i.e. No gardens, no cities, nada.....

they also stated that many would leave and a few would stay.... whats many and a few of 300,000,000 people?

Its why I came here, water security... I figured a rain forest would have water if anywhere did.....

so far so good....

And people on the beaches who laughed at me talking about sea level rise are trying to sell their farms pretty cheap, and now looking up in the hills where I am.... I was the first american in my area to not buy on the beach, the first to buy upland, and the ticos were confused, and constantly asked me why? And guess what I told them... for 14 years... and got laughed at and called crazy.... the majority of the ticos live in the flood plains..... (in this zone)........

Now its your turn.... I'm warning you... and have been, in this blog...

Get your camping gear in order.... get your bows and arrows, get your horses and carts, get your boats and boots.... get a pack for the dog too...

Because your turn is coming....


I am going to Canoas this week, hope to be able to start downloading books....

The most important science is Library science....

I am starting to create my library on the Micro-SD type chips, I will likely buy one a month as long as the money flows to be able to do it..... I have one thats 2 gigaroos to start off with.... the reasons I will be using the micro-SD size chip, are they can be water sealed, they are physically very tiny, and they will soon be the new standard and replace everything else, from CD disks, to USB sticks..... they also work in my fone with a mini-SD adapter, and in my computer with a full sized chip adapter... I also got an adapter for USB stick, but havent got it to work yet, I suspect a dirty contact...

I have a usb stick memory chip that I waterproofed with super glue around all the seams and also around the contacts, I hope to use a similar technique on the micro-SD chips, i.e. Use a small pointed tool to wick super glue in minimalistic quantities around the contacts to ensure the chip is 100% sealed... (on the USB stick I had to then clean the contacts with 6000 grit wet or dry sand paper....)

I also have a stainless steel can with gasket lid for my fone, it has space for a couple of spare batteries, and a hundred or more micro-SD chips... basically a thousand or more e-books, still not sure about the megabites for text etc.....

What kind of titles?

Well some fiction of course, favorite authors, classics, and I hope to find encyclopedia, medical books, basic technologies, art, sciences, magazines like prevention and organic gardening and National geographic, enough to reboot civilisation, or to take it with me in my shirt pocket up the stargate ramp.....

Maybe even find my beloved boyscout field book?

I will also if there is time, be looking for stuff on electronics, and also schematics from hobbyists, theres a lot of very powerful creativity that has gone into the design of electronic circuits for every imaginable use..... its like electronic genetics.... worth carrying stellar distances.....

I will likely find a thin plastic box for the chips, put it in a small ziploc bag, and put that in the gasketed can, which will likely go into a pack bag...

and counting the glue sealant, that will be 5 tries at waterproofing said library...

When the Mega-quake hits, libraries, internet, and your house and all the books in it will go away in a single day....

rebooting the tech on a physical level would be nothing in comparison to rebooting on an informational level... the quake will bring volcanoes and lightning strikes all over the planet at once... the forests and grass lands will burn up...

And if you make it through, the only thing that will save your butt, is the ranchers, i.e. The skygods.... and if you are not a responsible party to the problems, and you dont get the
ray-gun firing squad, you may get chosen as a colonist for other stellar systems, or so says the bible.... and no mater what, a little pocket library would be worth more than all the gold you could carry....

why am I mentioning this? In hopes others will do the same thing, and if something happens to me, all the best of humanity will endure on...

it would also be prime trading stock with aliens in any solar system in the galaxy...

Please! Everybody, dont take the tech for granted, use it while you can.... everyone boot up their own version....


Sunday, March 08th, 2009...

Afternoon, just ate grits fino, i.e. Cornflour hot cereal... did a food hike this morning got so many coconuts I ripped my gunny sack out, also got another gunny sack of bananas....

Going to the border tomorrow, hoping to go online from the hotel room with my cell modem....

Got an email this morning from my friend, fotos of his unloading his cement boat from the truck last year, did it with just him and the truck driver and a brother in law, and a crane.... i.e. They ran the crane too..... oh! Boy! Iffy project, drop it and loose a big hunk of money....

I got the fotos to open ok with the fone, have a memory chip now.... hoping tomorrow to go online and start collecting e-books for my library...

Last night I was reading an e-book under the blanket in bed, felt like a kid with a flashlight eh? Just me and my hand held device... it was a bit hard due to page scanning problems, the Nokia is really good, but the way they have it set up, its jerky from side to side....

Was reading a novel co-authored, another of those novels in settings of medieval type times, swords, bows, herbal medicine, etc. I love it.....

I was writing to my friend about how people have such an attraction to such much simpler lives.... even women authors..... hey girls, lets really do it eh? Let go of the car and the credit card, get a horse and some camping gear and go for it... I'm real, I do it day after day....

and prefer it to the false security of the normal life....

What amazed me, was the two authors were both women, but the writing really good, and obvious that at least one of them had done some subsistence experiences, as it was mentioned of soup/stew being a staple for our heroine.... i.e. Living in the brush, doing subsistence food growing and getting, and that was the usual fare....

Yea, Spuds are more probable in the pot than quail.....

But first you have to grow them.....

I'm looking forward to downloading books, like my dog looks forward to food...


Anyway, from the sounds of the economy on short wave, lots of folks will be getting to try living in the brush soon, people who used to have houses and jobs before the Greedheads rearranged things....

All I have to say, is go for it! You'll discover something; that you like it........
And the swords and bows & arrows make sense, for personal protection, hunting etc.

What people need to realize, that its more fun to actually do it than read about it or write about it.... Maybe getting a lay off notice is the best thing that can happen to you... what a great excuse to dump the shit box house, and take up a real life.....

You wouldn't catch me crying in my beard over a job loss these days.... I know which way to head... Beach bums have better lives than Bureaucrats... less hubris, more freedom...

My guess is a person could get unemployment and food stamps, use the money to set up with horse and cart or whatever, and the food stamps would get you a stockpile of food if you knew what you were doing... the secret would be avoiding “groceries” and going for the dry goods.....

a couple hundred dollars a month for one, would sure buy a lot of dry corn etc. I could easily live on half of that, and use the other half to stock up.... I live on much less now, my entire budget for a month is usually less than $200...............

Usually I spend maybe $50 to $75 a month on food..... its all in the style of stuff you eat... I seldom see a can or a bottle, mostly dry grains etc., flour, salt, baking soda kind of stuff.....

I would also suggest anyone who becomes homeless, think about going somewhere where somebody you know has land, and renting a tent spot, or offering to do a big garden and share with the owner... should keep it in the family if possible, and still keep your distance even then.... I've lived in such situations before, and alone in the brush way off, is a lot better then up close and personal problems......

Basically all you need is a warm dry place to sleep and cook.... people do it in cabins, tents, campers, busses, and under the proverbial bridge....

Soon one discovers time.... i.e. You have some... not run ragged holding down a job... I recommend gardening as the number one passtime.... after that, drying food, then crafts etc.....



In fact, I just happen to have my shopping list for this month:

Baking soda
salt
dry corn
dish soap (hard stick)
bleach
peas/lentils
bic lighters
veggie oil




The baking soda is to brush my teeth and make bannock with.... salt is for seasoning, dry corn and legumes my staple foods, dish soap and bleach for cleaning things, lighters to start fires with and veggie oil is to grease my bread pan with.... I used to buy coffee and sugar, but sugar on worn teeth was causing problems, and I gave the coffee up too, and now saving probably $10 or more a month by drinking tea from local leaves...

I also quit using oil in my cooking, and so a small bottle will last me a year now as non-stick for my skillets....

I also usually look for disposable lighters that are actually refillable... I have a can of butane, and usually get several fillings out of a lighter before something happens to them...

These days I look for the type with the Piezoelectric sparking system, as they dont use up the flints, and when the lighter cracks or whatever, I pull the little piezoelectric unit out of the lighter and stash it, as it will set off gasoline etc.

What I am thinking now, is to maybe come up with some kind of trench lighter, out of copper fittings perhaps, that uses unleaded gas like a Zippo, but takes one of the piezoelectric sparkers instead of flints....

The border with Panama has a lot of dollar stores, selling cheap factory seconds etc., and I usually shop bargains even then.... I got a small quartz alarm awhile back, only color they had was this putrid plum color, like not a nice plum, some color that didn't sell anywhere civilised, so off to the third world it went..... well, I rattle canned it camouflage the other day, and now I can at least look at it and not wince....

I also shop for crafts materials, cleavers to cut down into hunting knives etc., stainless cooking things to use for not the entended purpose, an example is the ice bucket for wine... I've bought a couple, haven't seen any ice in years, and not much wine, but the ring handles on them and the size, are just right to use with a hunk of cord, tied around the waist, or hung over the shoulder, for planting seeds from in the garden...

I will also likely be looking for garden tools this trip, a hoe maybe? Or thinking to buy a kid's shovel, and turn it into a downsized E-tool for bug out pack number one?




Monday, March 09th, 2009....

In a hotel in Paso Canoas Panama....
got in this morning, crossed border, dentist not in until noon tomorrow, went shopping, cruised all my favorite bargain stores, got mostly small items, shopped bargains, got a small 12 volt fan for a seed/grain cleaner. Its been on my list for 10 years, now will be able to build a simple seed cleaner to do rice, beans, corn, etc. i.e. Blow the chaff out of the shelled or husked grain and seeds.... also got a small one hand pickhoe, blade about an inch and a half wide, pick is maybe 5 inches long, very thin, almost elegant, but the metal is thickish and looks decent quality... looks good for fine weeding or chiseling toe holds in soft rock etc.

So its my garden tool buy for this trip.... actually pretty cool little widget, the head has a 400 stamp in it so I assume weighs 400 grams, I'll make a better Cortesa handle for it, and grind on the head some to round the corners and also sharpen it nicely... it was a strange one, over-all very minimalistic and lithe looking but the head is actually fairly stout made....
definitely bug out pack gear, and light and small enough for pack #1....also found a miners head lamp, diodes, rechargeable, and the box says 12 hours on a charge... I opened it up, looks to have a single 1.5 volt AA rechargeable battery... it will go on the German Nazi style motorcycle helmet, and I can use it for caves...

I also saw a 2 D cell diode flashlight all aluminum, but couldn't afford this trip, I have a beautiful little Gerber high intensity AA flashlight, but though experience have learned it uses a set of batteries in a week's use.....

so I got a nice little 2C cell diode light and it went two months of bush-use, i.e. Constant, i.e. Its the light switch... use it for going to the bathroom etc. everything... but thinking to eventually get a 2D cell diode light, as it would get me maybe 4 to 6 months of constant daily use...

Thinking survival....

ALWAYS!
One of the reasons I am thinking flashlights, is I know whats coming, the mega quake when the Ross shelf goes, and after that all hell breaking loose.... Thinking I want to create a way into that cave over on the reserve, and be prepared to get into it, if it still exists after the quake... buying backpacks etc., so I can haul my stuff, Thinking to work towards that goal, i.e. Fix up my old canoe, maybe next dry season, and figure out a way to get it and me and my food etc. into that river drainage, and to that cave.... Also thinking about doing buried stashes.... so I can leave what I have hidden, and come back.....


Also got a fanny pack today, $2.... here a front pack.... otherwise the pickpockets rob your ass.... ask me how I know!?

I have tried all kinds of ways to carry my passport and money, and in the tropics one is always into minimalistic remedies, so I dont wear a belt, or even have pockets for that matter, I did carry a pouch around my neck with pouch in front of course, figuring if anybody reached for my face I would probably guard and turn their hand away automatically...

belt pouch is a nicer option, room for my fone, etc. too... also room for the waterproof gasketed stainless can, I put the fone in for tropical drenchings....

I tried fone as modem in hotel, wont connect, suspect if I go out on the veranda and try, it will work, my worker claims ICE has the cell signal turned down in Canoas, afraid some Panamanians will get to use it... I'm not sure, I suspect its just their usual dysfunctional shit...
so off to an internet cafe in the morning... paying for useless service about half the time....
I'd line them bastards up and shoot them down, and I dont like violence... Monopoly is a 4 letter word....

Later, went out and bought more bread, and 3 each .65 cent beers... beer much cheaper in Panama that Costa Rata.... everything is cheaper...

Also got pork and beans, .40 cents a can, something I have like since childhood, and would be happier if they left the pig in the forest... just beans... but luckily not much pig in the can, and if I see a hunk of him, it goes to the dogs etc.....

I like not eating too much, these days I spend in the hotel are party time with a few beers, boughten food, and I can go home and live on basics and have this to remember, like you would perhaps remember thanks giving etc.......

The only known sure way of life extension, is eating much much less..

And I would probably look anorexic to the average american, but I can move like a kid at 52, no pot gut to carry around, and my statistical odds on everything from heart attacks to cancer, much lower than those who pork.....

The problem with refrigerators is much like Hillary's Mount everest.... why do people eat so much? “Because it was there...”

One needs to get away from the technocult, because its kills by overage...

Genetically we are geared to pork to survive... BUT! if we get too successful it kills us faster than too little... in fact, less is generally better, IF you are eating a lot of fruit, veggies, nuts, and the occasional water dweller...

I was thinking today, how to explain to you people, that your fears and attachments to the technocult are so easy to cure... I could teach a subsistence class, just need a place in the bush, with lots of cabins, install students, teach them how to subsist on less food, and more gardening.... you can grow spuds anywhere sane to live, you can store spuds in holes in humps of dirt, i.e. Places with good drainage, or like mini root cellars with rock walls and some kind of top with dirt heaped over it.... potato soup is fine fare, and if your thumb is green enough to grow more than spuds, the soup gets better.....

My point is; all there is to it, is to do it....

And all of those writers and readers dreaming more natural lives can really get out and do it...

Subsistence requires growing stuff in bulk.... a ton or two of potatoes will see a small family through a winter... I strongly suggest you grow as much of everything that you possibly can, because nature cycles failures: insect pests, blights, fungus, droughts, excessive rains, and stupid personal mistakes add up.... its like anything else, if you do your very very best constantly, you will at least do OK over time......

But dont expect to get or stay fat.... to do that you will really have to work at it.... and lose weight in the process...

Another point I thought about today, as I was shopping for shampoo, deodorant, etc. was about the survivors of the Great Depression, and how afterwards they stashed anything they thought was usable in case hard times came again.... a neurosis to most, but take a look at the economy..... maybe those tin cans could hold nails or screws or other small junk.... the good plastic bags dont take up much space folded neatly.... I bought things today as much for the containers as the contents.... looked for plastic bottles that had sensible shapes....

Instead of taking everything to the recycler or the land fill, try to find uses... and also try to BUY things with potential secondary uses for yourself in mind...

Tuesday March 10th, 2009....
Morning, waiting for noon, to go to the dentist. No appointments here, first come first serve... Latins would never show up for appointments, just flat wouldn't work in this culture...

Hoping to get a tooth filled, very important, as I think cash flow is about to dry up, and other serious problems, and having teeth go to hell, takes you with them in a survival situation....

Tried booting my laptop on the internet, no luck, looks like ICE problems, everything works ok, but web page wont load.... so I will have to go to a cafe, or else learn how to transfer files to my fone, so I can send the latest installments of this blogaroo....


Realized I bought 6 Items yesterday, all 6 survival related.... if I have money after dental work, will buy a few more such items.... other than eat etc. its all I do now; prepare, prepare, prepare....

Got an email from my son, he is going thru changes, maybe moving soon, due to job loss... and maybe moving again after that for same reason... luckily he has established a good reputation for being a good help kind of guy, and his wife the same, so they have houses to go to, while many a shit head is going to be pushing a shopping cart doing the bag Lady routine soon.....


Later, got a couple of teeth filled.... Love my dentist, nice lady.... She gave me her personal email, I think she is a nice variety of Lesbian... very decent person and I got a good hit from her partner....

Also ran into a Guaymi friend. He's going to help me look for a certain indigenous woman, I once ran into... that we had a mutual attraction, and I went into shock, and didn't even get her name... Oh! Hormonally stupid! And if he cant find her, he said he could find another one...... a thin one please! I like the indigenous women, very humble, and some are very pretty...

Also got a good email from my son, and he wants me to send him the Chinese Tillage hoe I got for him...

I ended up buying another today, at less than $3 I couldn't not do it, what I know is things are going to get bad enough with global warming that everybody is going to need to be in the food business.... Chemical agriculture creates imbalances, and nature corrects imbalances impartially.... what that means, is if you dont have a good stout hoe or two, you had better get at least one, because chemical agribiz is very susceptible to failure as things get iffy, and there aren't going to be enough Organic farms to feed everyone, unless everyone is busy doing one on one level or another, and ready to move if ambient conditions worsen and the food doesn't materialize...

From what I hear on short wave, gardening is re-becoming the national passtime in the US....

And I am very happy to hear that....

My advice to anyone thinking subsistence, is grow a lot of Indian corn... its most likely to be resistant to more factors than the Improved field corn variaties... it also has better taste... Corn bread made from it has a flavor a step above yellow corn... yumm..

Anyway, my dentist's office has a planted area in the foyer, about a third of the plants came from my farm. They were looking a bit dry, and I told her she needed to irrigate much more, maybe a misting system, she said she would find a way.... I had also given her a piece of Crystalline limestone, very pretty, it was sitting at the main desk... on top of it, for everyone to see....

They have a problem with dust filtering in from the gravel road and all the cars, I suggested the misting system, as it would turn the dust into fertilizer, rock minerals, just need to be washed into the soil, and soil kept moist enough the microbes can work on it....

It all makes sense folks, one just needs to become mentally attuned to how nature works, and then go with the flow... people need to turn off their TV and get out and get their hands and hearts into the soil.... dirt is not dirty, human filth is something else.... And from what I see coming with the mega quake potentials, one had best be thinking about giving up the banker's house and going back to a portable shelter.... and if you have too much pride and vanity to get there, you are berry berry likely to get genetically edited in the next 20 years or so...

That Ross Shelf is no joke... nor is rapid desertification, nor is the piezoelectric lighting that will come with the mega quake and touch already dry from accelerating evaporation forests and grasslands.... best we shift to Algae oil in warp drive Mr. Sulu.... 'twer I lord emperor of Planet earth, I'd give the Minister of energy 5 years and an unlimited budget to make it happen....

Anything less would be very risky for all humanity....

My son sent me an email about the scientist doing a new convention on global warming soon, and they have organized it to keep control of the out come out of the hands of politicians this time... I was glad to get the email, as it showed me my kid is picking up on the reality, and not in denial land anymore... we've gone through some tough spots in our relationship recently, and for quite some time, but I see things are improving very well now.... and little could make me happier, because its not about me, its not about him, its about us....

And the rest of humanity is coming to a similar paradigm shift.... let go of the ego folks, nobody lives long enough to get much out of being greedy.... and the more greedy we are, the more problems we create for our selves.... let it go.... let it go!

Anyway, I'm happy as a clam with Barak Obama on Pennsylvania avenue... he's self correcting... if he figures out something isn't working, best not be in the way of it getting fixed... The man earns respect like clockwork.... He is our Native son.... and I suspect he will change the definition of affirmative action, from bitching about the problems, to getting something done about them....

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009...
morning half hour from sunrise, a day to go home... nothing I love better, than going home after this border cross stuff... Have a bit of a sore throat, not sure if its microbes or something I got from stuff the dentist was using on my teeth.... most likely microbes, in the third world, one's immune system gets a workout...

Had an interesting thing happen in the street, a guy came up to me in the central area at the border crossing, and tried to sell me some Marijuana, I was respectful to him, but refused, and walked off shaking my head no, no, no... then I notice about twenty feet away two guys pretending to be doing something, and one turns and comments to the other about the incident, that this gringo had refused... it was a set up... I've been to the border enough to know that there are quite a few guys in the streets that do a lot of nothing but listen etc. I once had a friend start talking about Cocaine with one of the Listeners not 6 feet from him... I let him know with some slang english that we had “Black shoes listening”....... Personally I think the cure to the drug problem is to legalize it all... and after a generation of kids grew up seeing derelicts who had trashed themselves, there would be few clients for most of it and no money in it, and it would go away... its the illegality that puts the money into it, and the hidden-ness that allows it to prosper... take the money out of it by legalizing, and let results catch up with people, and they will soon go around the problem instead of becoming part of it...

Its just an example of how control causes side effects...

No I dont think doing drugs is a good idea.... but nor do I think one person telling another what to do and not do is a good idea either... it causes imbalances that dont get corrected...
in other words problems that continue generations....

The big lie has a helpful side.... much of what is done is one group thinking they are helping another by controlling them... but its all and always a dichotomy pair... a form of conquest for the good of the victim... and usually even more for the good of the conqueror.... Like the Romans attempting to civilise the world by enslaving as much of it as they could...

Well, we are about to see where that kind of thing leads.... Ross Ice shelf can be directly connected to the civilisation is invariably good logic....

no, its a dichotomy pair, comes with positives and negatives... and the more positive you pretend it is, the more negative it gets..... Personally I see the best use for civilisation is for making materialism, but they've kind of over done it in most ways... I go through the junk shops, for a couple days here, and see maybe less than a percent of the stuff on the shelves that I have any use for...

And I am starting to get pretty good at buying stuff to turn into other things...

I want to make some tools, for fishing, one of which is a small harpoon with a stainless head, so I can nail a bigger Tuna or swordfish and tag him with a line and float if its too big to handle until it tires more... also want to do a special killing lance.... I suspect if I get to do them they will be made out of recycled kitchen stainless, like from cleavers.....

A strange concept eh? Making aboriginal tools out of techno materialism..


well..... my friend with the concrete yacht is working hard and diligently to get it here, and when he does, I will no doubt be doing some deep sea fishing..... and there is still stuff out there thats big enough to cause problems getting it into a boat.....

My point is that my desires for materialism are specific, I'm more interested in a $3 hoe, than a $300 TV.... I have given up most of the garbage culture, and gone retro in my thinking and doing... yesterday I was using my Nokia hand held device to show an indigenous friend some photos of my indigenous crafts... it creates a strange vignette if you think about it, a white guy using high tech gear to show an Indian fairly primitive level crafts projects for subsistence purposes... but also, if you think about it, its also very neoindigenous... and if I work at it long enough, the Indian may decide he likes the $3 hoe more than the $300 TV too....

Its all a matter of personal choice... you can be a snob trapped in an ivory tower, or you can be a free man on the face of the earth, seeing whats over the horizon a day at a time....

Personally I find the peace I get living in the brush to exceed any emotional good I would get living in a Vanity dream world as a rich man... I am enslaved to very little materialism...

There is something similar going on with the computers and internet and such... I see others writing books portraying their dream world of people living more simple lives, with horses and bows and swords.. Basically using a technical media to fondle a cherished concept....

I would suggest they also begin to do it in reality however possible...

As when the Ross shelf goes, the technocult is likely to disappear the same day or week....

and if you are out herding sheep you will be better of, than herding a computer in the cities....

I would also suggest that you filter whats coming out of China for what you can make of it in neoindigenous gear.... there are hoes, and wheels for carts, and pieces of nylon strap, and rope, and stainless steel items, there are plastic water containers, and fishing gear, and duffel bags and packs.... there are axes and knives, hammers and pliers, the list is potentially endless.... Like I've said before, one good trip through Walmart would have most of what I needed to live as a neoindigenous person...

Mostly its all a time factor... how ready you can get and how separate from the technocult you can get before effects catch up with their causes... I was listening last night, the sounds of a third world town in the evenings, with music playing from the buildings, people talking in the streets, cars, etc. and realized its a weird parody of village life... and about as social as a doggie fuck fest.... people are following their animal tendencies in a technical style...

And today, I will take my $3 hoe home, back into the mountains, happy to have a couple teeth fixed... I use the technocult, mostly just for a few things, and I work constantly to get away from it as much as possible... Separation minimizes dependency.... and as Buddha pointed out, better to not be dependent on anyone, let alone a whole civilisation...


Thursday, March 12th, 2009....

Home again, happy to be there....
nice morning, about time for my second bath, i.e. Warming up...

Started the Generator this morning and ground on the mini-pick hoe.... also cut a slot in the handle of the Chinese tillage hoe, to accept a square nail as a wedge, to allow tightening the head, it's a round eye, and they like to turn and slip down the handle.... the nail was tapered, and I depthed the slot to allow me to hammer in the nail and have it set flush, and head very tight on handle... ran out of gas before I could finish the mini-pickhoe, but got its corners rounded. And a usable edge on it, just minus the back cut I like to put on such to facilitate sharpening, something I learned as a metal engraver....

then I rattle canned some camouflage onto the two tools, and hung to dry.....

The mini pickhoe is pretty good metal, not a toy, and definitely bug out kit #1 tool.... I didn't see a kid's shovel this trip, but still thinking to make a downsized e-tool of one.... I've owned US army style e-tools, but the folding head weighs too much, and the blades are too straight with the handle, they lack the spoon curve.... what I am thinking, is to have a tiered system to my bugout kit, where the first tier has tools, but all sized around the hatchet, and the next tier sized around a ¾ scale axe, and the next tier my full sized stuff.....

I was thinking about it last night, how important tools are, and that I would go without food to be able to keep more tools.... food I can find.... tools one buys or makes...

Did an experiment with plain hard corn this morning, tried cooking it in the pressure cooker, worked fine, came out like a tough guy corn on the cob type food.... it wasn't the stuff that had had the skin removed, and I didn't feel like waiting on hominy... and actually it was pretty good....needs about an hour under pressure....

I think we are going over to the reserve this weekend, spend a couple of nights... look around, talk, check out the aunt....

got a bit of an infection in the town, no surprise, not as clean a place as my mountain....
sore throat serious this morning, I doctored it. Now better.....

My best friend was feeling depressed the other day, his brother in law is his other best friend, and the guy just got laid off.... he's tried to get his brother in law to come to Costa Rica to see it..... but the guy has had the usual blockages, so my friend said he offered to pay the guy's ticket.... why? Because he wants to save his friend from whats coming, get him thinking outside “box-Babylon”..... we know if the guy comes once, he'll be hooked.... he loves to hunt and fish, an outdoorsman....

His wife is a nice German Lady, and she would like the large German community here....

I also talked to a guy on the bus from Louisiana, he knew about Alligators, and said; “Better than Chicken” and on the way home I asked my son's sister in law, indigenous girl, and her response to the do you like Alligator meat question was: “Soy encantado” or I'm in love with it.....

Oh......

guess I will have to try it then, if pretty young women really like it.....

Well, no shortage of them here....

I hope my friend does get his brother in law down.... I think its going to be a long time until jobs reappear in the US, maybe never, and they wont pay as much when they do.... and it already didn't pay to work.....

Here at least he can grow a three or four season garden, not have to heat a house, and not need a vehicle etc.

Great place to be unemployed...

The hard part will be selling out up there, surely no shortage of houses on the market, or yard sales these days....

Yesterday we had several earth quakes, felt about Richter 6's to me, hard for here, and lasted a long time and repeated.... also had one this morning.... reminded me of Ross Ice shelf....

got a new type of lizard in the house, a big one.... wonder if he will eat the other ones? Hope not. They are all pretty tame.....this one is 10 inches to a foot long and is jumping from place to place.....

now one of the Skink types, is following it.... hmm?now he's in my boot..... ok, he just went back outside.....

Also set the $7 quartz wrist watch I bought to the Time tick on short wave radio this morning, going to check its rate, I think its doing ok.... amazing buy, has a screw back, rotating bezel, etc. much the size and style of a Lady Diver's watch, I usually get the larger male sized version, but in the tropics one likes to carry less.... and a Lady's divers watch is the size of the standard male's watch... I may get a couple more next trip or three... why ? prime navigation device, a quartz watch, a metric ruler, a copy of the equation of time, and a planisphere, and I can navigate pretty much anywhere.... I also like having a short wave radio...

The bazaar thing these days, is that most of these items cost almost nothing..... we are talking less than $50 and throw in a decent compass for that price, and you can navigate with numbers... I'm thinking about taking a photo or downloading a copy of the equation of time, and getting it into my hand held device, also using the notes area on the menu to write out the formula.... and if I were to say download a few maps of the planet, most all I needed could be in one hand..... I am looking forward to the day that I can get a hand held device with GPS built in, thats solar.... I think in the near future one will carry such a device at all times, thats a fone, internet hookup, GPS, and a decent calculator.... I find it really insulting the calculators put into laptops and phones.... so much program used up on vanity and it would take so little to have a full scientific functions calculator... I guess I'm not a bubble headed blond? Surprised they dont have cell phones that are mirrors and come with make up, for all the vanity functions they seem to have....


Friday, 13th, March, 2009....
interesting day, feeling better, throat infection slowly going away...

My daughter in law came up for a visit this Morning, gave me a long hug.... I got to show her the Kitchen stuff I've collected for her, she's studying to be a chef, just starting, doing some preparatory remedial studies, Math mostly, and still working on her English, to get her up to speed for the Major.... She was telling me about seeing some of what they teach, including art in cooking, i.e. The fancy end, where the food becomes decorative art before it gets served out... She was happy and excited, and loved a lot of the things I have collected and made for her... She was with others and could only stay a short while but said she would come back and spend the day......

Also got to see my little niece, she remembered the English word I taught her the other day: Bubbles, from her playing with soap suds.... surprised her aunt, my daughter in law.... I said the word and the baby grinned and blurted it out loud and perfect....

Everybody, even the Ticos are teaching the baby english words... She's going to be bi-lingual from the very beginning... and what a good kid.... very social, bright, and fun....

My daughter I.L. Said my son is excited about the Giant Lima beans, she had to take a photo, and was amazed and excited how they climbed and produced.... and I told her I think we may be up to 500 plants soon...

Meaning into the thousands this year.....

Cross my fingers on that one.... if we have luck, I will start getting the seed out, here and especially over on the reserve... better climate there, slightly drier...

My daughter I.L. Was telling me today how good her and my niece's mother have hit it off... Like sisters she said, and I saw it last year when they first got together, that they really liked each other.... boy! What a gift eh? Some cohesion with the females in our group... I think we will be all going over to the reserve this weekend, and she can meet the folks over there....

She'll hit it off good... we are all different versions of the same thing: people of the land.... i.e.
Those who are food growers, and do it yourself-ers.....

After She and group left, I listened to Alex Jones awhile on short wave, Bob Chapman and Chuck Norris were on doing commentary about the current problems with the new world order types.... What I know, is that it will all get worked out, the corruption will cause its own cure, either by civil war, or by the system working, They keep pushing their Machinations, and thats the road to their own demise, people are waking up... you cant fuck everybody on the planet out of their life's savings, and ability to have a decent diet, and expect them not to figure it out... New compromised Federal document circulated to state police about anyone who flies an american flag, or are Christians, or support Ron Paul, or the Libertarians are all Terrorists....

Basically the illuminati shitting in their own nest.... the police aren't that stupid, the Army etc. isn't that stupid either... and when the shit comes down it will be over so fast that most of us will miss the fun...

The problem is ARROGANCE, and I heard the word today used to describe the politicians, and that they think we can do nothing.... It will be fun to see the video footage of the Tribunals and hangings.... the lies are not working, people are starting to get past the divide and conquer routines, people are figuring it all out, and joining up and getting info out etc. and nobody is going to give up their guns, New Orleans was a wake up call....

There is an old AMERICAN adage: “Stick to your guns.”

And what that means is when they come around collecting, sure! Give them your guns! LEAD FIRST!

There are thousands of times more gun owners than people willing to take hot lead....

Basically what it is, is the types who feel powerful have lost touch with where the power ultimately comes from....

Silly Greedheads, they will only understand, when the ropes tighten around their necks.....

I noticed long ago there were those who let a JOB TITLE go to their heads....

If your job title doesn't say GOD on it, you aren't one.....

Anyway, I noticed I fit several categories of the supposed terrorist qualifications.... even growing your own food was one..... that got a good laugh..... its as american as home made apple pie, and the girl next door.... I also heard from my daughter that they did a huge garden last year, and doing another this year.....

Organic Terrorism?

This is all absurd....

The system is fragile, the people of the land are durable... in any fight the winner is generally who is toughest.... Bankers against Billy Bobs? Well Billy gardens, hunts, fishes, fixes machines, builds houses, runs small businesses, and helps his friends.... bankers do none of the above... mostly they stink.... and the day is coming that nobody pays any attention to railroad cars full of laws or Legions of demonic Lawyers, or Satanic Judges...

Hang em High...

And its all going to have a feeling to it..... everybody will go along to get along, but eventually there will be a catalysing event, and on the morrow a new Paradigm, and the only ones who wont know until too late are the guilty....

One of the criteria for the terrorism accusation, was believing in the return of Christ.....

Gee? I think he's real and coming back as any blog reader knows.....

I'm not a fanatic religious type, its just simple deduction once you figure out Genesis 6, etc.

If he left heading into the sky, and he's supposed to come back from the sky, what in Captain Kirk's name did he leave in, and will come back in? A ship of course.... all those stars in the bible that do weird things like hover over Jerusalem on the first Christmas etc. were just like the ones I see at night here, Satellites, the Space Station, etc.

The Bible is True, its just been Grossly Misinterpreted, at and for, a vast profit....

Anyway, JC was down on money changers last visit, and then they had him wrongly executed... but he had friends in high places..... and soon he will be coming back to a world trashed by the very same types and their machinations.... and he will burn the lying bastards this time...

But they dont realize it, because they too realized the Standard interpretations of the bible were not possible... but they overlooked the possibility of a logical interpretation being possible...

Anyway.... when you've heard Willie Nelson, and Chuck Norris both on Alex Jone's show, you realize that the anti-globalist movement is indeed mainstream....

What the truth is; is that power over is inevitably dysfunctional, because those with the power dont have to live with the results of their decisions, so absurdity and stupidity eventually become the norm....

What does work, is individual power.... where people make their decisions and have to live with the effects... they get better at decisions fairly quickly...

we live in twisted times....

but the knot is on its way to getting untangled...

Should be fun....

Before the fall, comes hubris....

Saturday, March 14th, 2009....

pretty morning, rained some last night, so the birds are happy......

Thinking about new world order this morning, and how we dont need it..... like Chuck Norris commented yesterday, we are being taxed to death, and they want us to pay for more and more? Gee? What will a world government cost to run? And how much good will it do the guy paying for it?

Its a joke.... they are trying to rule the world meanwhile trashing it? Make any sense to you?

Its like the Herbal Medicine thing, 75% of the US would rather use it... and the AMA is trying for all they are worth to burn all the witches.... point being the more the AMA does to improve things for the AMA, the worse it gets and the more sick of their shit people get, and the more into herbal medicine people go....

ditto for governments...

I personally dont acknowledge any higher authority than my own conscience....

it does fine.... keeps me from killing people who really really deserve it, keeps me from stealing, much better than fear of a fat cop or a wizened Judge...

Basically to me the technocult has become a side show.... its on its way out.... and unless we do a drastic change immediately, its chances of continuing are absolute zero....


So I constantly prepare for the new Paradigm, the one where I eat what I grow.....

My daughter in law said my son was excited about the giant Lima beans..... she took fotos to show him... and that they had a huge garden last year... must be some of those terrorists who grow their own food? Lets see, my son is reading the bible, not because of any religious upbringing, but for his own learning.... so two terrorism hits? American flag? No none of them in the yard, he'd be more likely to fly a Pirate flag with skull and crossbones... so maybe he's OK?

Most of the current News and Government propaganda is nothing but sophism.... something that seems true but isn't.....

And that they try world government, send out memos about police needing to be on the look out for those who fly flags, grow gardens, go to church, etc. being potential terrorists, shows what a bunch of tweaked neurotic morons the status quo really are...

I suggest we all start flying flags.... and growing “Terror Zucchinis”....

If you get a really big one, freeze it for the revolution, so we can use it anally on the status quo.... for all the times they fucked us with taxes, absurd laws, stupid TV, and lies, not to mention assasinating anyone decent who gets anywhere....

Was also thinking this morning about Tibet... Alas Tibet.... nothing like having bad neighbors next door.... I wonder if anyone will ever realize that conquest is rude, non productive, and a childish ego trip?

If they dont speak Chinese, they aren't... Just like Okinawa, they dont speak Japanese....
or Puerto Rico w/english, for that matter.... or Los Angeles....

There are 50 plus ethnic groups in China.... most of which would likely wish SARS on the Capitol center and Government offices...

the problem is “power over”, childish nasty behavior, making others do what you say or you will hurt them...

Its the best reason I know to avoid feeding Governments at all costs....

i.e. Dont play....

Time to hit the road folks, get out of Babylon, get out under some sky, let go of the excess materialism, go for whats simple and wholesome......

All those governments go away if you quit feeding them.... and I can survive where they dont have the time or money to bother me....

You notice they are having a little problem with their bogus economy recently... perfect time to slip out the back and go homestead some remote nice spot......

Anyway, another beautiful morning here, cooking some simple food, do a bath in the spring soon, its warming up.... also am drying some seed corn today.... and I have a bunch of bananas going ripe that me and the dog will have to work to keep up with, and she and I did in a couple of coconuts already.....


No food shortage here.... not much boughten food, so not much shortage...

Funny thing about camping, is you can do it all over the place..... and you can do it and garden at the same time... and if they come and run you off, well that creates a quandary, because you have to go somewhere else, i.e. New camp-spot, & so, how many people in how many camp spots before they get tired of running you off? If all the unemployed took my advice and took up camping, instead of struggling to become taxpayers again, they just all headed for the brush and took up gardening, how long do you spose it would be, until the government realized they were losing their permanent tax base monthly, and thought maybe enough was enough and to quit with the bogus money problems?

They want you to suffer so you will take a job paying less....

Turn the tables on them.... dont take no jobs.... get a hoe and go into the food business for yourself...

Seems a lot more direct, than working for some asshole, paying taxes to countless others, and whats left over after the costs of niggering, you get to spend on some food....

This blog is a how-to guide, how to get a million monkeys off your back....

I also heard the memo disseminated to the state police accused those who fly flags, grow gardens, go to churches, etc. were probable white supremacists...

What about the black folk that do all those things?

Do you spose they would be confused if brought up on charges of being white supremacists?

And I guess those guys at the top of the pyramid manning the all seeing eye, havent noticed that plenty of white folk and black folk share family ties these days.... And we do things together, grin at each other in the streets, share vegetable seeds and zucchinis....

The best way to free Tibet, is to free yourself..... because if you do it, someone else may decide its a good idea too..... and enough someone else-s, and eventually even the Chinese government will have a problem.....



Later, read an e-book, and a good one, fiction, but it portrayed a disaster very well....

And got me thinking about the mega-quake, which I suspect could result from Ross shelf going...... I used to suspect tectonic plate expansion, which will still likely be a component, but after reading about the quake caused in China by perhaps the filling of the artificial lakes, I think filling the world's Oceans 5 meters or more deeper is enough of an imbalance to cause the mega-quake.... it makes sense, and goes along 100% with the Bible's warnings....

With 80% of humanity living within five meters of sea level, and the magnitude of tsunamis from such an event, it would fit Jesus's words; “ Washed away.”.. and the quake rubbling cities would provide the other effects as would resulting volcanism, fires, nuclear power plant releases, etc.

What can I do about it? No more than I am now.... I have lived in this area for 14 years, tried to get people to grow more food, and move to higher ground, and just got laughed at for my efforts...

They aren't laughing so much now with food prices, the economic collapse, and people seeing reports about global climate change etc. on the local TV station....

And the only thing they will listen to, is the TV, and for my thesis to show up there would take acceptance in the US and by scientists and governments, and unfortunately I will likely just be branded a nut case, and ignored by experts.....

so I hope the reader will do some research, come to their own conclusions, and follow it with firm decisions..... If I learn Ross is going, or feel repetitive non-stop, or increasing quaking, I for one will be hoofing it for higher ground....

Where I currently write is at 250 meters above sea level.... If I have warning I will go up the mountain to about 400 meters, to a place with a good view.... 250 meters is about 800 feet... 400 meters is about 1300 ft.... I could go higher.... but dont think I will need to....

Anyway, I would like to be able to sound the alarm, or at least get people thinking enough to get their kits packed, and their routes planned, and ask hard questions of those who know more than I about the potentials of such phenomena....



Morning, Monday, March 16th 2009..

nice morning here, got emails from son and friend, friend doing some online studying Ross Ice Shelf, and global warming... He's now taking it seriously, the denial is gone... and he even stated he understands the Neoindigenous concept now...that its likely the best way for one to prepare... I responded that a lot of folks would be figuring out there were real problems, and searching for personal security, and that my blog was waiting for them...

This morning I got to try the Bagel lifter I bought for $1.50 in Canoas on its wooden handle I had made, waiting for what ever fit.... it fit perfectly... now can use to lift stuff out of giant wok or the 10 gallon volrath pot...

I saw I have another rat this morning, fairly large.... not my favorite thing...

Listened to the news last night, VOA, not much to comment about, banks fucking the people with phone poles.... not to worry, they will get theirs, Chances of banks or their owners surviving whats coming is absolute zero... money changers.... gonna burn...

Now is the time to get ahead of the curve, quit hanging onto a dying reality.... start booting up your neoindigenous trip, lighten baggage, get it all portable, think subsistence, think survival...

Today I finished drying a liter of seed corn... more to come... the worker chopped area for more subsistence planting.... I'm getting over a chest cold, got in the border area... when its gone I am going to establish an hour or two in the mornings working in the garden, digging raised beds with a heavy grub hoe, and then hacking them up with the new Chinese tillage hoe... soon to start planting stuff, a couple weeks more and enough rains to sprout seeds, and we will get as much area under cultivation as possible.. its a slow process, but I've built plenty of gardens before by hand, never rich enough to own a rototiller... usually I like raised beds that are about 3 feet or a meter wide, and about 7 yards or meters long, its a nice size to work from both sides and to do end runs around with the wheelbarrow....

you go any longer or wider and they get uncomfortable to work with... I also do shorter beds, and also do areas, generally small, flat, to grow stuff on that doesn't seem appropriate on raised beds, or that I dont have the time to do raised beds for....

we will be doing a little of everything, and trying for enough area to use up all the seed we have, which is a serious amount... I will also try to get more seed if able, especially tree beans... I have a liter now, can pick a bit more, but if half of what I have were to come up, and grow, I'd have a thousand bushes.. What I really lack is good help.... my worker is hit or miss, its the attitude, fucks off every chance he gets... he'll pay for that... as my loyalty to him is on the decrease, I believe him less, and in whats coming he will discover having a wife and kid to be serious when the real problems arrive and I am unable to help him because he screwed me constantly... I also reduced his hours by a third, and will reduce them another third when time is right, weaning him off... from awhile back, I have been using him on projects that all in time will eliminate the need for him.. I know better than to rely on unreliable people... I suspect as times get harder and his problems mount he will have a change of attitude and I wont have to abandon him totally.. he's young, learning, and sooner or later will figure out it isn't a good idea to sandbag people who try constantly to help you...

If nothing else, its really bad Karma...

I ground dry corn this morning, made some cruel gruel... pretty good actually with ripe bananas... I do fine living on simple food, its no great honor or pleasure to eat, but it keeps the spirit and body together in this world, and gets me to a better day...

I find my biggest personal limit these days is affording gas for the generator, maybe next month, have wood to turn into projects! And now have the trucker's fan so I can build my long awaited seed cleaner....

also thinking daily about the saw blade stack grain mill, and wire brush rice huller... going to be a downsized unit, very portable, and efficient energy wise...

The trip to the reserve didn't happen, but its about to re-happen next weekend I think.... still looking forward to meeting the indigenous woman that gave me the nice body language... not sure anything will result, I'm really picky, been burnt too many times to get excited about anything that isn't exceptionally nice in some way or another.. nice looks, nice person, nice attitude, all those get my attention...

Also have been thinking about cutting up the Cortesa hunk my indigenous friend gave me, doing a staff for bean threshing, handles for tools, maybe a second set of nun chucks.. thinking it cant hurt to make a nicer set... have one set started, will finish them and begin collecting pieces for a second set, and use also what I learn doing and using the first set...

I also want to do a Cortesa handle for the little micro-pickhoe....its a pretty cool little device, definitely refugee gear, first pack most likely... having a digging tool or two is a good idea in a survival situation.... even if you have to move the dirt in your cooking pot, you can dig a pretty serious hole in a short time with decent hand tools... one needs a latrine, one needs a fire pit, one needs to dig out springs for water, lift rocks out of their beds for fire pits, bury the treasure chest etc. and I think after the mega-quake one is going to want to dig a hole to live in due to temperature drop from Nuclear winter...

Morning, worker started hoeing in the new Mega-garden, doing area we had in beans, soon to be rice... I see his attitude is changing a bit... getting his hours cut got his attention... I'm sure he still sandbags, but he is showing signs of realizing what his job is worth....

its human nature...

NATIONALIZED CAPITALISM

I have been thinking this morning about the concept of nationalizing all the banks, and using interest on credit to replace taxes... i.e. Socialize our capitalism, kind of a reverse Fascism... instead of bankers running the government with bribes, read: campaign financing, lets reverse it and turn the bankers into mid-level relative low paying drones..... and put laws on malfeasance and embezzlement like the laws against theft etc. for workers at the U.S. post office, that the sentencing is double or triple of such outside the nationalized service......

This would go a long way to solve many problems.... get rid of income and property tax, insure credit to all sizes of businesses, and for sure cut the current problems with arrogant bankers, to absolute zero...

if you agree, copy and email this section to friends, and ask they spread it too....

Personally I hate banks, and love credit unions.... this is just expanding the credit union to a national service and using the proceeds to help everyone....

And nothing says we have to keep the same old management in cases such as A.I.G., nationalize insurance too... ditto for profits; eliminate taxes.....

It would also be a good idea with companies like Chevy, Dodge, Ford, etc. anytime any major corporation goes bankrupt, it gets nationalized.... and from then on profits pay our taxes... shareholders would feel better anyway, the stocks would become more like government bonds....

i.e. Lets gut Wall street while we are at it....

If I were Barak Obama, I would also nationalize the automotive industry, and start pumping out vehicles more like Hum-V's etc. to replace the current S.U.V.'s that everybody loved before Bush and company anally raped them with oil company drill stem....

Go heavy on algae oil production, a 5 year boot up plan at war-time like speeds and financing, and basically turn american cars away from vanity and toward practicality and durability.... do a ¾ scale hummer in stainless and T-series aluminum.... i.e. Re-invent the family station wagon.... great vehicles to haul organic produce to the farmer's markets...

And you dont think they would sell all over the planet if priced equitably?

Surely Mercedes could do a nice version to compete?

The problems we are having now are best termed; “Status Quo Constipation....”

For the American Military, I would cure their enlistment problems by first staying out of places we didn't belong in, second using them as much as possible to do public works projects, and third re-boot the G.I. Bill education system until it is THE student loan system in the U.S., and basically you spend two years in Afghanistan etc. building sewage treatment plants, drilling wells, and teaching mechanized food farming, and you go to university on a zero interest loan, and get this or that for free....

add another year or two, and the loan turns into a pure war-time like G.I. Bill program....

You dont need to make military service obligatory, just make it very rewarding....

and use it as it should be used, treat the service people with respect.....

I would also get rid of Officers.... replace ring knockers with Warrant Officers, that the way up is thru the ranks only, on merit and studies only... it would get rid of the arrogance.....

I would keep the military academies, just change how the students got there....
which would change who they are......


Back when I worked at Lame County, we had a Sergent in the reserves working as a crew member, I liked the guy, and we got along fine, although we had much different styles and outlooks.... he knew my personal history, i.e. “Bush rat Exceptional”, and that I'd been in the military as a Radioman during Viet Nam era... He wanted me to join the reserves, and train me for long Range Reconnaissance, which to me was very tempting, but I refused, I remembered quite well how one gets treated as enlisted in the american military, and I responded that I didn't want to be called up to go kill people who were only defending what they believed in, like Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan etc.

this was before the Iraq war.... and I always wonder if the guy made it, or died in Iraq? He was also interested in Costa Rica, and had come here exploring options once....



Later, trying to send out emails today on my fone, more problems with ICE's “vomit quality” service...

wandered over to the new garden, and seeing the area hoed this morning is dry and brown, i.e. The hoeing murdered the weeds due to still being the dry season... trying to start getting ready for the coming rains in April.... best planting season of year here....

I think we will do very well with the new technique this season, and get in some good staple crops.... Hopefully do well on them all and especially the corn....

The boughten corn I am getting at Pali' a Walmart company, is locally grown white corn, and wouldn't make fodder grade in the US.... the problem is Costa Rata's import restrictions, all the products in Pali' are from Costa Rica, so the quality is really shitty.. if they ever got a real Walmart here, the Ticos would go into shock, and most need the defibrillator....

This country has incredible amounts and types of blockages.... nothing works, the current president Oscar Arias, is trying to get free trade in, and in my opinion is the most progressive president ever, but is dealing with a status quo best fixed with a firing squad....

ICE? A firing squad is too good for them..... maybe beat to death with a rock? Except it would defile the rock.....

I know an american who moved into my village a couple years back, I tried to help the guy, went way out of my way, and when he thought he didn't need my help anymore, he got rude..... so I walked off.... he has since learned a lot the hard way..... and last I heard even his wife was complaining about how you just couldn't do anything here due to the endless blockages.....

Basically the country is set up as a near perfect Corruptocracy; and past governments have awarded Total Monopolies for kickbacks and bribes.... a telecommunications monopoly, and even a monopoly on beer..... only one company in the whole country and beer is over a dollar a bottle and people working basically for a beer an hour on the wage scale...

I have heard there are more lawyers per capita than any other country on earth... and have also heard from the ticos themselves that there isn't an honest one in the whole country....

I suspect it will all implode soon, just like the US and its silly games and corruption under bush and thieves....

Basically with what is coming, the people will not be able to support an elite and feed their kids too.... this wont bother the elite a bit, until its torches and pitchforks time... here they call it “Sticks and Machetes” time......

Like the new property taxes....

when they start taking farms for a few dollars in taxes, the ticos will burn them alive.....
in San Jose' murder is a nightly drill.... I dont even like going to Tico houses during the news hour.... it used to be really bad..... and since the economy went into the shit bucket it has gotten so much worse, even the Ticos themselves are aghast....

What this means to me, is when things worsen due to economics and food crisis, and the government tries more of the same and tries to confiscate land etc. for tax enforcement purposes, it will be a short cut to total anarchy.....

They started seriously collecting property taxes in the countryside in the last decade... so far all I have seen them actually do with the money is build a few sidewalks in the larger towns, and then they went to lining the ditches out along the highway with cement.... no bike paths, no sewage systems, not even a public landfill in the area, and they spend money concreting miles of ditches..... makes one wonder who's brother in law got that contract, and what the kickback was....

Well.... I came here under the logic that it was the edge of the empire and the empire was falling..... i.e. I wanted to be on the border with Scotland, When the Roman army pulled out.... and not be downtown Roma when the Vandals and Visigoths showed up to party....

so far, I think that plan is working fine... civilisation is just arriving in my area, and soon to be just leaving....

The Ticos invariably try to screw the Gringos..... and any other foreigners.... they are the marks, the preferred victims, and the legal system is a: nod-nod, wink,wink form of never get anywhere and nothing ever happens investigative and police system.... They actually passed a law during my time here that you couldn't get out of jail by paying a bribe to the judge or the police..... nobody paid any attention....

Personally I am looking forward to anarchy, and the resulting clean up.... the assholes here are really common and really bad.... but if it wasn't for the law they would have all been dead long long ago.....

Anyway, I feel sorry for the kids that have to grow up in such areas.....
and I hope when the ranchers arrive they burn plenty of Liars here....

There is no shortage...


Wednesday March 18th, 2009.....
morning.... worked in the garden this morning with my hoe, still too dry really, to till....
but I gnawed through a raised bed, got it chopped up, will try to do another tomorrow, we are only weeks from the rains, and planting season....

the area I am hacking up is going into rice, will also get my grub hoe motoring, and do more raised beds, fill the area....

Its not too big of an area, but I know if I get it into production, it would give me the rice for personal consumption... what I am doing now more than anything is re-establishing my own gardening habit, after years of relying on my worker....

Still using said worker, but things are about to get serious, and I think its time to kick it in gear personally too...

While working, I was thinking about the AIG bonuses flap, and also that 8 out of 10 people on the planet dont have so much as an out house to shit in......

and about all the folks who say their mission is to help us, but who really just use us, and even worse; use us to use others even worse....

from top to bottom its the same, doctors lawyers, drones and bureaucrats, police to grocery store owner its all the same, providing a service we dont really need, and reaming us royal for it....

I can take care of my own health thankyou, most times I was unhealthy I learned it was connected to the system somehow....

I can state my own case thank you, few modern judges give a shit about anything except wealth extraction for the system that feeds them like prize pigs...

office workers? Nope, dont need them for shit....


bureaucrats? Archery backstops at best....

Police? I can defend myself thankyou, &dont need somebody with an axe to grind hauling me up in front of said judge for doing it either....

Grocery store owner? Well I was eliminating him with my hoe this morning in a non-violent manner....

Insurance salesmen? Now there's a scam...... only one I ever knew personally turned out to be a pedophile.... didn't surprise me when I heard it...

A.I.G. ? a bunch of drones and insurance salesmen.... who think they are funny I guess? People going hungry, and they snarf up public money and bonus themselves royally for fucking up the economy.... If I were lord emperor of planet earth, I'd neuter the bastards so they didn't breed....

And cut it all off, down to the curly hair.....

You guys aint fucking nobody.....


The enemy isn't the Russians, or the Chinese, or Uncle Hugo down in Venezuela, its human greed and corruption, where ever it be.....

Why do the Chinese want to run Tibet? Aint altruistic caring....... is so they can milk the poor bastards... and their Yaks too....

Its Colonialism....

Well, unless things get straightened out soon, we're going to need Guillotine factories by the scores... because if 8 out of 10 people on the planet dont have so much as an out house to shit in, they cant have much extra food either, and when enough people go hungry, all hell will break loose...

Anyway, I was ragging on greed in this very blog a couple years ago, and now the people in the US have a bit of a clue as to what I was talking about.....

I have breadfruit coming on, which I will share with others in my group.... plenty of wives have decided they really like the stuff... makes excellent French fries.....

I like it like mashed potatoes.... I live a day just fine on a single nice fruit.....

And my point is: if we all plant enough food, and never feed the parasites, all will go well..

How long do you suppose before they will be around to try to tax gardens? The money is getting worthless, and the materialism is too... I bought a nice little wrist watch for less than it cost me to eat in town for a day or two at simple rations....

Now the bible talks about a lot of good people going bad at the end due to inequity, read; injustices... I dont think I want to go bad just because so many others are doing it....

I think I know enough about how things work, to know I had best go good...

Going out in the garden with a hoe, is going good... we will grow more and more food...
My worker lugged up a sack of cuadrado bananas this morning from lower on the farm, he said he found a couple pineapples too, but didn't have room in the feed sack... I said take them home on your way out, we have more going ripe up here... so there will be a young woman and her little girl eating plenty of pineapple in the next couple of days.... organic, free, sweet, and healthy....

and my point this morning, is we need to focus on food, and not on governments... and one can do good things without money... not a cent of mine goes into AIG... not a drop of sweat pays for colonialism.... If the government keeps files on us bloggers, they surely think I am a radical.... maybe even a potential terrorist.... got bad news, its them that are the real terrorists....

and anybody that doesn't want the government's nose up their butt is a terrorist to them..

be they in Pakistan, or Costa Rica....

All boils down to power over and the hyena pack mentality....

Its a terminal mentality... and I wont have to do shit to make it happen, the very Greedheads and control freaks will do it all themselves, and are doing it all now.....

Every time I get my hands on any money, I try to prepare for whats coming..... thinking if possible to get me a new Zippo lighter soon, also saw a nice sized Jackknife... and thinking to pick up another flashlight, D cell size diode unit, that should go months on a set of batteries for me....

lets hope I get them.... because the fan could eat shit any day now....

I dont think so.... but I think in the next five years or so, odds are 50/50 or so, and surely in the next 10 years... and I am not the only one who thinks so now...

I could get along on my old tired Zippo.... and have enough flashlights now, and no shortage of knives in my life.... but what I know is things are going to get so bad, that none of these things may ever be available again....

its a long list I have to fill... the want list... but at least I have the neoindigenous concept to filter out most of the vanity.... and if I dont use up all the knives in my lifetime, they're stainless, and will go into other hands..... ditto for pots and pans, maybe be able to give a young lady a wedding present of some stuff to cook on, years after the factories became rubble?

Get while the getting is good, think ahead, think neoindigenous....



Thursday, March 19, 2009...

Morning, another really nice one... have you noticed the pattern yet? Its almost always nice in the mornings here... one of the reasons I love the tropics....

Thinking survival stuff this morning, things to get if I still can... currently fixing teeth every month, so money is tight, but have several items on my get list.... always....

One Item I was looking at, was Chinese pellet guns.... specifically a nice cheap pump up version.... thinking that I could make darts, treat with frog poison, and have a very nice survival arm, very deadly, quiet, cheap to feed, and available here....


Listened to short wave last night, heard Bob Chapman, and he was talking about the upcoming world wide civil war.... I have thought along those same lines for years.... that the status quo had arrogance instead of good sense, and sooner or later things would get iffy....

Personally I expect its a while yet, it will take crop failure and no replacement food source to kick it off.... the current economic problems are only the orchestra tuning up...

I was also thinking this morning about the Christianity thing, and that the Ranchers likely dont want Blind Faith morons, who would I want? Decent people who were “True Believers”
i.e. Believed in the existence of the ranchers etc. because it made sense.... people who were good survivalists, good neighbors, good mates, and good at making and fixing things, and who had some respect for the natural ambient said ranchers likely seeded....

I dont think they will find many they care for, down at hypocrite hall on Sunday...

I think the average Christian is in for a shock..... many are believers in the “Rapture” (read; “Rat-sure” and they are just sure god is going to save them for being kiss asses... instead of being decent folk day in and day out....

Jesus said that you had to go all the way through the test.... through the times of trials....

and then when he came back he would send out his agents to gather up what ever made it and was worth the collecting....

then those get taken up.... gee? Where does up lead to?

Some spiritual nirvana? Not likely... a ship or ships? Much more likely....

If they are correct about the planet being trashed, going to a new one could be a nice option....
Like I told my son, one with all the Salmon still in the rivers..... what would one do there? Well, not make the same mistakes.... I think one would want to build a technoculture, but not much like the current one.... one that was softer/kinder with the ambient ecosystems....

say one that was neoindigenous?


Where people lived simple lives, and used technologies to make them better, but not at gross vanity levels.....

now if I was a rancher, who would I pick? Somebody living in the city, scamming for an existence? Or somebody who lived on the land?

And who provided for their own needs..

It all gets obvious doesn't it?

Once you realize what the true game is....

That this is a test planet where we have been left to go thru self imposed hell, and figure it all out... kind of a rough neighborhood kindergarten.....

I work on my gear.... I work on myself, I work on my friends and family, I work on you...

My son is reading the Bible... not for any fanatical religious reasons, but because he realizes what it is and reading it for himself....

my best friend has gone from denial head, to getting his trip in order double time... really busting butt.... I admire that...

I am still learning and figuring things out... but I am realizing that if I get my own trip in order, I might make it through the shit, and to go to other stars and colonize other planets sure would be more fun than this one... and if I have my kit packed, I'm ready to go, and spend any excess time learning all I can, when the opportunity arrives if it does in my life time, which I suspect it will, I will be ready to march up the ramp, and unpack my duffel in my cabin, and be right at home.....





Friday March 20th, 2009.....
morning! 'been busy puttering around this morning... I see my fone has disappeared several emails I was working on.... great tech, when it works right...

I've been getting ready to cook, ground corn and cut up bananas and sliced coconut and hot peppers, to make cool gruel.... imagine ripe bananas cooked with hot peppers eh? One's tastes change in the tropics, sweet and hot can go together....

been thinking this morning about the perfect woman... well, how bout the one that should work out for me, but usually doesn't? I think the lacking ingredient so far has been a bit of fear and necessity, women seem more interested in twiddling with my life, than in getting along and making things work....

was reading a novel yesterday, co-authored by two women... it was pretty good, but I noticed a few new additions to the romance agenda.... usually its horses, and a handsome rich guy, plenty of intrigue, and mincing dance steps toward lip locks, and eventually a bed...
followed of course by the ultimate assumption of a romance novel; that they begin a new
co-dynasty...

I'm sure I missed a few steps....

But I noticed in this novel, the horses were there, as were some indigenous natives, i.e. A Renegade element to the romance, etc. but what was striking beyond the renegade element was that the novel ended by them agreeing to buy land together....

Yea... I did that once with a woman.... and guys, I dont recommend you fall for that one....
As my experience turned out really unkind to me.... cunt trips, with me losing tens of thousands of dollars when the eventual forced sale came... I suggest that instead if some woman wants to buy land with you, that you insist at worst on adjoining pieces.......

That way when she eventually decides you aren't quite malleable enough, and takes off with your buddy who is, you can stay on your own land, and maybe later enjoy seeing him put up with her shit, next door....

Anyway, what I saw in yesterday's romance, was that women are starting to adopt new standards, and one of them is land.... yea, I know its always been there in romance novels, usually an extensive estate to go with the snob asshole male victim, but I sense a new female imperative on that aspect...

In the “Every thing is wonderful” world of romance novels, it might work out, but in real life, I suspect if the bitch has any room to apply leverage, that the poor fool will eventually wish he had never met her, and even less gotten involved with her on any business levels..

I think as things worsen due to climate change, and things get more iffy, and then even iffier,
we will see the vast fortunes requirement for perfect malehood, evolve into more of; “do you have any food?”

Another interesting aspect the novel had was a wish to escape slavery, which I think is a subconscious link to the Credit slave reality.... i.e. Mr. Perfect has to be willing and able to free the dumb cunt from what she did to herself with credit...

I dont think I'd bother....

I pretty much have given up on relationships.... gnat a won eber werked fer me....
I dont preclude the possibility one might, but I have begun to smell rotten fish when it comes to females....

I once knew a really nice person woman, who also was very pretty.... and I got to watch her life unfold as I grew up.... She went thru divorce after divorce, until finally beyond middle age hooked up with a really nice guy.... and it worked out, still together after years and years... and this guy had also been through divorce after divorce....

And I got the opportunity to ask the guy what he though made it work this time, with both having a history of failures?

He responded, that you just have to treat it like a job, and work every day on it to make it work....

That was really good advice, but after years of living alone, it sure sounds hard... and a lot of work, and for what?

Just so you can have some regular company? A dog would be a lot less trouble... much cheaper to feed, and shit in the bed less often....

Anyway I think its funny... and wonder after the coming Global Civil War, and most of the rich guys get the firing squad, if being wealthy will become a bit more subdued in romance literature?

And will the females figure it out when the supermarket is hollow, that maybe they need a guy with a garden, who doesn't have to be quite so stunningly handsome? And perhaps if they cut out about 3/4's of their endless shit, they could even get along with the poor fool?

We shall see....

until then, I think I'll just enjoy reading the occasional woman authored book, and see if there has been any change in the mindset....

And for working at it daily? Forget that! I like the sounds of get along, or go away.....

Love? I've observed, is generally a form of “getting stupid”....

And wisdom being figuring out how others are, then getting wise to women is pretty much figuring out how they operate....

and gee! The romance novel, read from the male perspective, isn't really very complementary to where women come from and wanna go to.. a bunch of nasty social climbers using sex to get there... and jerking some poor fool around by his hormones to make it happen....

I realized years ago that Love, was an air raid siren... when it goes off, you had better run for it, and dive for shelter....

I even heard a couple women having a discussion once, and they were bitching about not being able to find any emotionally virgin guys.... i.e. All the guys seem to have been screwed over enough that it was getting hard for the blood sucking spiders to find a decent victim who would get hormonally stupid for them....


I suspect the future isn't going to be too pretty for females, most of them will get ground up inside of office buildings during the mega-quake...



anyway, the gruel was pretty good, filled the empty feeling... funny how simple it is to live at subsistence levels.... and not all that difficult....
basically its expanding the garden to include enough staples to dry etc. for non-cropping times.... you have to go from garden to patches, or areas of staples...

I heard last night that the human ecological footprint on the planet was about 2.2 hectares, or just shy of 5 acres per person.... the bad news is there is only 1.8 hectares per person on this planet, meaning we are trashing things as a survival or living ploy....

I also heard over 30 million people in the US are on food stamps... or about one in ten....

What do you suppose is going to happen when the US hits the wall on global warming and all the bread basket areas begin desertification at accelerating rates?

Grains and porno are about all the US really produces any more, that and debt....

I also heard mention last night, that with the new bankruptcy laws, when you file, you never get “Them” out of your life ever again, i.e. Enslaved to the bankruptcy bureaucrats forever....

I suspect that credit debt is being intentionally worked towards becoming indentured servitude...
read: abject slavery... Slavery has been outlawed, but it never went away, and seems to be making a comeback....

In the bible its mentioned that people in debt, were often awarded to whom they owed as slaves....

Visa Card and Master Charge are going to be the new Slave dealerships from the looks of things....

Personally I expect things to just keep getting worse and worse... am I depressed about it? no... eventually when theres been enough getting worse, the turn around will come and things will get better... and I am still young enough to maybe live to see it.....


Do I think it probable that I end up in a long term relationship? no... and it doesn't really bother me anymore.... I have learned to not give a shit about it...

would I like it if I could find someone I could get along with? Certainly, but at what price?
My freedom isn't enough? Nor my company? Nor the security of what I know and do?

Well, then I guess I am not good enough, and best be on my way... and be lighthearted and happy for having my freedom from the problems that come with human relationships...




Saturday, March 21st, 2009....

home alone, and appreciating it.... rained last night, also first night to hear the Ting frogs.... so the rainy season is about upon us.... feeling OK this morning, thinking about what to say in the nature of the good side to females and what I would want in one....

Well, they can be good company..... and good help, but I just dont have any desire for the childish manipulation games and head trips.... those give me a “get the fuck out” response...

I find it a sorry thing that we have a generation of women who think its their god given job to create as many problems as humanly possible....
I also think they have pretty much shit on themselves for whats coming... all the greed 'n grab trips wont be worth much soon, houses, cars, money, all under the rubble..... it will be a strange world when the survivors crawl out of the dust and blood, and take a grok at the new improved reality...

I feel for what will happen to the women.....

I think it will be really ugly... quakes kill a lot of folks, men, women, kids, everybody...
and those who are left are hunks and pieces of families and friends groups....

a total social fragmentation, like as if a fly hit hard with a swatter.....

I think after they try pulling people from the rubbled houses etc. in the cities at higher altitudes, they will start mining the rubble for food, blankets, and tools.... cooking gear, axes and picks and pry bars.... trying to get at more of anything left after the crush....

I dont think many will stay and try to rebuild with nothing but rubble and the stench of death as far as eye can see, and nose smell... along the coasts, it will be silent... just the sounds of crabs getting even for all the seafood dinners since the dawn of time... if it was the mega quake, it will have produced mega-tsunamis.... and the cities will not only be rubbled, but washed away....

80 % of humanity lives within 5 meters of sea level, half or so live in cities....


Might be a good time to be camping somewhere high and dry, and far from town...

I heard Bob Chapman last night, still predicting global war.... says the whole world economy is broken and not going to get fixed....
I think he's right... how can you fix something that isn't even real? Fixing the big lie after you have been caught in the act lying, gets a tich difficult... and consumer confidence has turned into “Roaches Running”..... everybody running for any crack they think might save their butts....

he says he's getting inundated daily, with requests for info on leaving the US for other countries....

Yea, and they all thought I was crazy leaving 14 years ago? Well, I have learned a lot the hard way, and they still have a lot to learn....

And I have given out an incredible amount of very valuable information in this blog... save your butt kind of stuff.... And I am still learning...

The best recent Retro-Realization I've had is the cracked corn diet.... its dirt cheap, its nutritious, and its pretty good eating... its also the possible basis for a home grown subsistence diet...

Its breadfruit season soon here, fruit are setting on several trees, I usually share with friends, being the only one who grows the stuff in this area....

usually during the season, I pretty much just eat breadfruit... its good stuff....

Anyway, wondering if I will ever wander into Mrs. Right for Me? Kind of given up on that one.... mostly these days I try to get my own trip in order, boot up my survival gear, prepare for whats coming, and if theres any left over, try to better my immediate life....

Have been thinking about my refugee packs, how to pack them... thinking that I need one pack thats set up with a bit of everything, i.e. If thats all I got away with I could live OK....

if the shit hits, chances of me running for town are absolute zero..... so it has to be a
bush-pack....

I also hope to be able to do some plastic water tank stashes before the shit hits....

places I can go to if I lose absolutely everything, and still reboot...

Not sure I will have the economics for those....

I think my most important realization in life, is you cant depend on anybody....

I'm glad I made that realization BEFORE hell day...




Sunday, March 22nd, 2009....

nice morning, rained last night, I'm feeling pretty good.... woke at midnight, made food early,

and have been thinking this morning about a Sermon I heard yesterday on short wave, where this cowboy preacher was reading passages out of the bible about the “Instinctual liars, thieves, and killers” who run things, meeting their demise... and I thought about a statement on I think it was radio Netherlands, about that 50% or more of the corporate elite are very ruthless types that you probably would not like, if you knew them...

Yea... I think we are dealing with a collection of genetic killers at the top, and have been for some time.... I also know they will eventually trash things enough to be taken out....

predators.... send your kids off to war for a profit..... use up your life, and then pull your pension out from under you.... are we seeing a pattern yet?

How bout steal your house while you are paying for it?

It amazes me that they have been able to “disappear 45% of all the wealth on the planet”..... recently too.... thats a pretty good trick... what in only 8 years?

And draining....

You have to give up “Normalcy” to survive.....

And I have offered up a pretty Tasty concept with the neoindigenous mindset thing...

Gee! &You get to keep most all you care to....

no problem having a solar panel on your hogan in the mountains....

Me? constantly collecting things to better my life, AFTER the shit hits...

Most people better their lives in the moment with nice comfy normal things....

and dig their rut deeper and deeper....


I've been struggling for years to cure my self from the residual problems from having led a fairly normal life for a number of years....

Boy, that was a mistake....

But I am making progress... I find re-connecting with things I had or liked as a kid helps a lot....

I also think I am not alone.... from what I can read in fiction, even certain females are feeling the empty calories lifestyle to be found wanting....

I see them writing about heroines living in huts and drying herbs... and riding ponies, having adventures, and liking guys who are good and decent.....

Those are all really good signs in comparison to the type after Lawyers or businessmen...

Basically what I see coming is war, famine, plagues, and a mega-quake followed in short order by tsunamis beyond belief.... the Indonesia tsunami was only about 10 meters, or 30 plus feet...

Just a big wave....

if the mega-quake sets off something, it wont be just a big wave....
my guess is it will be many magnitudes of order more.... if Indonesia was from a Richter nine, the whole planet shuddering would be millions of times more energy released.... and the resulting waves would be coming from and going all directions at once, and due to reflected and refracted waves, keep sloshing back and forth perhaps for days....

I think I would either want to be high and dry, or out beyond the continental shelf...


If that Happens, and with 80% of humanity living within 5 meters of sea level, the number of survivors will be minimal... especially considering the mega quake will take out inland cities too... Basically if you aren't out camping under the sky somewhere, you are likely dead meat...

I would guess that 3/4's of those living along the coast would die, and at least half of all those in cities...

add in the plagues etc. and you are looking at a die off of 90% or more....

Not going to be too many left...

Not enough to keep a technocult booted....

and all scattered..... some living in rubbled cities, but most scattered out in the hills and countryside...

A Rototilled planet...

The quake we had here a week or so back, was the first that made me actually exit a structure.... been through plenty of quakes, but that was the best so far.... I was glad to see my Lizard brain was smart enough to run for it..... I had wondered...

I sat there watching... and pretty soon got the time to go feeling.. and went...

I know a woman... that I respect, and I have tried to tell her several times to start exiting the house during quakes... lives in a nice concrete house.. I will probably stop by there again fairly soon, just to make sure to tell her one more time......

I suggest the same for you.... if you live in a house, get a bug out kit in order... with the 24 items mentioned earlier in this blog, also water in water cans, plastic, metal, etc. as the mega quake will break up the crust enough to do an excessive mineral realease into the aquifer, likely toxic amounts of heavy metals etc. for some time.... and the radioactivity from trashed Nuke power plants etc...



Monday, March 23rd, 2009...

Morning.. puttering around this Morning, ground some corn, made cruel gruel... a regular staple here at the ranch....

Thinking this morning about the problems, and happy as hell that I feel to be on the right path.... I suspect I am not alone on that path, but so far, with my limited abilities to work on computer and internet, then the problems with ICE, and followed by the hardware deficiencies, and inability to get stuff thats right for my gear, its a long march towards being able to get connected up....

But the battle is another dichotomy pair, has two sides, the external and the internal..
and the internal Yes I can do something about....

The external is another matter... but at least some people are figuring it out, that they have to get their own shit together...

I was listening to short wave last night on a going dead set of batteries, and tuned in on this Christian that does a trip on WBCQ I think....

he's a fanatic Jesus lover, Jesus is everything, Jesus, Jesus......

but he did say last night that he had realized the importance of controlling one's own mind..

Sounded like something out of Buddha, or the Tao to me... but I was glad to hear the poor fool had gotten on that trail... he also sermonized about humility... we've been there done that on this blog too.....

And my point is this guy has figured it out, and he's a common man type, and that means that there is a good chance a few more of us common morons have been doing some thinking also....

Actually I see a lot of signs these days of people figuring the game out.....

I also see signs of the so-called iluminati figuring out that we are figuring it out.....

And that means the crunch is coming up....

I think the bible has it right, portraying them as a bunch of genetic sickos....

Instinctual Killers, Liars, and Thieves......

But you know, we dont have to believe their shit, follow them into hell, or do what they say for that matter....

The LAW is more mumbo jumbo voodoo manipulation..

And the police and military are made up of common folks... the hierarchy is generally well filtered to produce assholes, but the vast majority of those in these service industries are fairly decent folk with spouses and kids, and a home with toys in the kid's rooms.....

And they are quite aware of the powers that be.... that very idiom came from the military....

But they are also as aware as the rest of us the group paradigm....

And there is no doubt in my mind that the Bush/Cheney era got a lot of them thinking and realizing that there would come a day that they must disobey, or end up on the wrong side of the national paradigm.....

I know the thing about the memo circulated to state police about people who are patriots being potential terrorists has made it to mainstream news....

thats good, because a lot of police and military are patriots, its the main reason they joined, a personal desire for public service life....


How do you suppose they are going to take it?

I think I know.... they will see it as more proof that the management is fruit loops.....

That there are still some sickos in control......

And I doubt Barak is too happy about that memo..... I'm quite sure he's plenty sensitive to one group being singled out....

These people are only exercising their rights... and whoever wrote that memo is a traitor...

And considering Ruby Ridge, and Waco, I dont think it was a good thing to do....

Those people aren't going to take it as a joke... not even those in the military.... or the police...

of all the people in the US, the political group with the most fervent support for the police and the military are those very same people described in that memo....

the people who wrote it are dumb fucks....

Me? I dont fit that memo's group too good, but I do support the constitution, I do believe in the great spirit, I am a patriot of sorts, volunteered for the military at age 17 during the Viet Nam war.... because I was attracted to public service, thats how I know that one.... and though I was raised red neck, and in a red neck area, I have another side, the more natural side....

But my point is, the status quo is intellectually bankrupt when they write and circulate such crap...

and everybody knows it now, dont we.....

I suspect a lot of folks have figured out whats coming... its the reason for all the gun sales...
and it isn't only rednecks who buy guns... everybody buys guns, the only exception are total fools who haven't a clue one about reality....

There are very few of those left...

And I think after the Made-off scams, and the AIG bonuses, and the Patriot Memo, mainstream america is starting to figure out the game even more...

The Intellectually Bankrupt in charge....


I was also thinking this morning about that group of people who are attracted to fictional literature that portrays more natural lifestyles as part of the background ambient to the entertaining stories.... plenty of authors write with such backgrounds, and millions upon millions read those authors....

I have said this before, but I think its time that all those readers start inclining everything they do, think, and buy towards the directions of really getting there, and not just reading about it.... time to activate folks....

Why? Well because global warming is going to take out the technocult as we know it...


Later, my daughter in law came up. Last visit, on her way back to the states soon...

Learned some funny things; she likes my blog..... I sent her off with the last two chapters, so hopefully they will be posted within a week or so... I think they contain the Ezekiel One info... so hopefully it will get out...

I also got to talk to her about getting everybody in the house to pack bug-out kits....

Its a house of four people I care about... would be nice to know they were set and ready to go at a moment's notice....

Also learned the Jehova's witnesses came to their door the week before she left, and my son got a bible from them... meaning he is curious about the stuff I have pointed out...

Seeds planted... and when one groks what its all about, then one begins to take the Bible's warnings a tich more seriously....

I also have been thinking recently about a passage by John, about the Oceans going away... And realized it could mean run away greenhouse effect... if that happens we are going to need space elevators in a bad way...

So I do hope my concept gets out...

And that there is enough time....

Also learned that my son who is the computer programmer/analyst is now pretty much most needed guy where he works.... and in a group of good minds.... that makes a father feel pretty good...



Tuesday, March 24th, 2009.........

Morning, blissfully home alone today....

feeling pretty good, woke at one in the morning...... been up since then..... Thinking this morning about a call in I listened to last night, Chapman was on, and a caller was asking about why banks in his area are building banks on every corner... seems the very companies that got government bail outs are building new buildings.... strange eh? Just what we need more banks? Thats like producing more lawyers... not too wise....

Same caller also suggested that people are doing something with any discretionary income that isn't showing up in the economy.... I figure they are just stocking up on normal items, food and the like, and its not too apparent... If I buy two bars of soap instead of one, big brother long nose likely isn't going to notice..... I've been doing a bit of that kind of thing myself.... I have little for discretionary, but I am tending to buy ahead now.... any chance I get....

What I know, is we are going into a depression, and in such, having good spending habits is critical.... the first part of the depression will be inflationary, followed by deflationary... the status quo wants all you rainbow niggers to work for a lot lot lot less....

How to beat the game? Opt out.... use every cent to free yourselves one step at a time....

you dont need a house... a camper, an old school bus, a cabin, a house truck, or a good wall tent, tipi, yurt, etc. will all do just as good and save you a thousand a month....

I hear there are tent cities mushrooming up... gee? Wonder how long before they discover how fragile nylon tents are in sunlight? It was on this blog a couple years ago....

After getting rid of the house, the next on the list is vehicles.... head towards horses if possible... and if you cant do a horse, at least get into a small pickup truck, 4wd, and a canopy shell on the bed, so you have a place to sleep and can get off the road, and back up into the brush if need be... a mini-pickup and a mountain bike would be my choice if I had to co-exist with the technocult as a neoindigenous nomad still holding down the job etc.

You arent really free until you get out of bank houses and gas station vehicles....

I myself have been spending discretionary on packs, got 4 in the last 6 months, in pairs... for packsaddle use, or if some near sighted crazy woman decides I'm just the thing.... Ha! I figure use in a portage style retreat is much more likely....

Some times modern reality is so depressing... but I've learned you can trade despair for resolve..... just gotta boot up and get your emotional trip in order... how? By starting small... one step at a time, and beginning the smallest of good habits and then building on that until its a serious good habit, then habits, until you really are getting your trip in order....

the cure for depression, is action... well thought out action that cures the problems permanently....

emotional fixes dont work... a shopping trip to buy some pretty item to feel better just puts you in the hole more... if you want to weaponize your consumerism, you need to use it to buy “opt-outs”, i.e. Camping, survival, and subsistence items....

Guys are better at this.... we LIKE such stuff.... women, they are often more inclined to buy cosmetics or a new dress, thinking its a more sure way out of their current problems/relationship etc......

not all women are like that... plenty of earthy types.... but you dont see them on TV, or in the fashion magazines.....

Guys like camping stuff.... thats why we are constantly flipping thru the catalogs from the camping, fishing, hunting equipment companies, and often buying.... we also like tools.... including gardening tools.... and we are generally more capable of building things from scratch than females are.... we even learned wood working skills and welding back in high school remember? The average guy could come up with a pony cart in short order... The average woman would be hard pressed to come up with a travois...

But that isn't necessarily bad.... as long as she makes it happen, and figures out how to not gall the horse, or try to haul too much....

One must learn to work inside your own abilities....

and less is generally better than more....

I'd say if anything, we are living way too technical.... and Us guys are somewhat to blame...

Lately I have realized how lucky I am to be so poor.... its helped me figure out what is real and what is most important... instead of dreaming of a house in the burbs and a big 4wd truck, I get to little by little improve my humble existence...

Nothing major, but constant improvements all the same....


Actually I think many skills that women seem to be addicted to, can carry over really well into subsistence and more natural living... they are great organizers, and really good workers at tiring tasks, like harvesting or processing harvests into stored food.... they also keep things picked up and put away better, and so can live in smaller spaces easier... Where they fall down, is their addictions to comfort..... its not too comfortable to have to get out of bed at 4:am to light a wood stove, so you can have some heat.... guys, we can grumble about it and get 'er done, and not have an emotional crisis...

I find that living in the tropics is the best..... I light a fire at 4:am, but its for tea or coffee, or to cook with.... I pity all the poor slitches in the states who think they have a comfy life zipping between the supermarket and the job.... it aint a real life....

If it doesn't include a horse and a dog and someplace with a majestic natural view, it sucks....

Mostly it our vanity that traps us.... more into houses than freedom...

Houses suck....

literally... time, money, repairs, up keep... endless....
Anyway, I'm wondering how much people are figuring out? That the system is a crooked game... and the best option for any of us is to get the hell out of it...



Wednesday March 25th, 2009....

Morning, spent most of it working on a handle for the mini-pickhoe.. gotter done.....
now in the sun with the wax/grease mixture soaking in to seal the wood's pores....

Also got to chat for a few seconds with my buddy, but the system went down again....

and I have also been writing an email to him this morning on my HHD, mostly about the economy and how the Space Elevator thing is the only way out... i.e. That other countries are going to quit using dollars and everything eventually crash etc., but if we make an offer to boot up the Asensor, and sell futures in it in trade for the bad debt, that everyone will get on board and even invest more.... just have to get the concept to Obama, and I have no means to do so... computer/internet deficient and illiterate.... maybe in a few months? I keep getting constant setbacks from other's half assed trips, and my own trip is enough “Late” concerning information technologies, and my personal economy so low, that it would make a great movie script, even though living it isn't quite as romantic....

Anyway... I'm happy dog this morning with the new mini-pickhoe, its not every morning I complete something for the old refugee kit.... still hoping to eventually get a kid's shovel to make a smaller e-tool with.... thinking maybe go 16 inches of handle on it, longer than the mini-pickhoe and hatchet, but still kinda in their ballpark... perhaps 24 inches long with the blade on the handle... would make a nice stove shovel for the fire pit.....

I looked for a garden rake to cut down, for the size two garden tool kit, but didn't see what I wanted.... and also thinking I'd like another hoe, more of a weeding type, that fit the smaller set too....

Listened to short wave last night, WWCR, and Albert Addis on an economics/gold hawker's show....

I like Albert a lot, he has a good egg, and last night was chewing on the economic reality, along lines I think along... That its broke, aint gonna get fixed the sleazy way, and Obama is buying us some time for the soft crash option, i.e. Hyper inflation... I think people are beginning to prepare, and thats where the missing money is going in the US economy, people are buying more soap and Tampax and driving around less.. I hope so, it makes sense in inflationary times to buy ahead of the curve of inflation, and also it's getting a wee bit iffy these days, and I think having durable goods on hand is a very good idea...

I think some people are buying gold, those with enough discretionary, but I suspect the average folks that are awake to the problems now, are doing a preparatory trip for a depression.. i.e. Stocking the larder.... getting that extra can of tuna, buying some decent boots, filling the drawer with socks, and filling in on the tools and materials for subsistence projects....

I have a wish that this blog helps some... get the heads in the right pathways, and people knowing that even if they have to abandon vanity land, that they can still create an even better life than the big lie ever was..

Albert talked last night about how people used to build houses, start with a single room, and every crop of the farm add what they could. i.e. No credit, based on actual production...

he described the vignette very well, but left out the likely living in a tent to get the first crop out.... Personally with the mega-quake in the pipe line, I dont think I'd bother with the house, maybe stick with the tent to keep the mobility factor up, and instead of a lot in town etc. or a farm in Wisconsin, I'd wander a bit south, and set up stakes in someplace where the snow was a pleasant memory, and not an ugly reality....

I think the neoindigenous concept is very valid.... and hope it gets found and adopted by many.....

I had a humorous thought the other night, when I heard the guy wondering where the mystery economy was going, that maybe people were at the junk yards buying hubs and wheels for cart building? Pretty far fetched at this point, but still humorous... that the neoindigenous thing could spring from a million sources, and people figuring it out, and others reading my drivel and passing on ideas word of mouth etc....

It could grow like that... and I care less about personal credit, than I do about people getting their trips together.... and I know some of my concepts are good enough to spread themselves with out the blog being attached....

I could care less... what I care about is that kids get fed, people go back to what really works, and that we all get ready for the shit ahead, and mobility becomes a watchword....

This blog is nothing more than a form of creative expression, me trying to teach you something that will be of service to you....

My son said mechanic's work is picking up a bit... I think its the Obama Effect, people know the system is bogus and sick, but having somebody competent in charge sure beats the shit out of Moron Sleaze like the Bush / Cheney and thieves era.... we know there are hard times ahead, but we have a man now who is sincere, hard working, and more honest.... he has to play with the cards he's dealt, but I hope the space elevator concept gets to him, and he has that card to play... I really like the guy, would be a great fishing buddy, talk around the campfire would be fairly wholesome with Barak's presence...

Well, Barak, do you like white or wheat bread, and what kind of jelly on your peanut butter?

With George, you'd be wishing you had some Rat Poison as jelly replacer for him....



On another issue, I have been appreciating the miner's headlamp on the German motorcycle helmet... its rechargeable, so I am not using my flashlights, an so not using up their batteries....

first time in years I have been able to get ahead on flashlight batteries....

I am hoping my economics this month allows me to do at least something in the preparedness area....

we shall see....

I saw some things in Canoas that I wanted, but short the cash, due to fixing teeth, but maybe this month can knock a couple things off the list? We shall see....

One item was a nice big Jackknife...very handy item.... if they are still there, I will check them out.... Thinking I can maybe re-shape the blade and handle some, a little less Rambo, and a bit more practical... also hoping to get some cleavers to cut down, thinking throwing knives... would be nice to rig up such, I've thrown knives all my life, am good at it, and so having a few more throwers in my kits could be a good idea...

The list is endless....

Also thinking I want to upgrade my musical instrument collection some.... when the lights go out and the digital music dies, having a nice collection of musical stuff could be fairly nice...

I always wanted a flute or piccolo, but have a plastic recorder budget... and no availability here...

I will get something.....

There are $10 harmonicas, and a tambourine, and even had a fiddle from China for $75.....

And thats the fun part about neoindigenous lifestyles, We can go back to something real and personal that we can put some love into.....

Later, just checked my emails and got it to work somewhat... several from my friend with the concrete yacht... he says he loves the neoindigenous concept, and is going to incorporate neoindigenous stuff into his boat as he's finishing it off... gee? I haven't a clue what he has in mind... he must be running with the ball pretty good?

Will be fun to see what his interpretation of Nautical Neoindigenous is?

I may have created a monster... or maybe several... if people get the concept and start doing their own versions, which is what I have hoped for all along, its going to be a real headache to normalcy....

How do you see applying the concept to your reality? We all have freedom of expression as long as we insist on it to an empty gun.....

My buddy doesn't much care for Obama.... I just see him being better than george or hillary...

yes he is a lawyer, yes he has been groomed, but he still has more of a brain than the others and in whats coming he will suddenly find himself in deep water.... and no one to turn to....

so I prefer an intelligent man over a Rag-a-thon woman, or a greed head moron who couldn't pronounce simple english...






Thursday, March 26th, 2009.....


Morning... another pretty day.... one after another.... seemingly endless....

Listened to radio last night, VOA, and later Chapman on WWCR.....

He was explaining how the big fix will result in a whole lot of inflation for a long time....
No surprise to me.... its a downhill trip folks....

And the reason its downhill is because of how humans are... one and all.... the problems are caused at individual and collective levels....

but can only be solutionized at the individual level......

I cant make the world a better place very much, but I can so organize my life to have less dependency on others, and so less problems.....

The less I need the money system, the less I need other humans, the less problems I have....

Basically I figured out years ago that going in the directions imposed by following the path of least stress really got results.... I am still heading in that direction, but what I noticed along the way, is stress is almost invariably connected to other humans.... so its a game of getting your human count down.... Its why backpacking is such a great relaxer.... you can bust your butt, haul 50 lbs or so up mountains, and at the end of two weeks doing it, be more relaxed than any two week period involved with other humans... solitude is: “Diamond Moments”.....

Thinking this morning about maybe building a Kayak.... going to cut up a downed log and see if I can get enough out of it to do so.... at least get a frame built, thinking strip built, but over a frame... looking for a stout boat... we shall see... the log could be a disappointment, its got defects etc. but hoping I can get enough wood out of it to do said kayak....

I also think about maybe doing a sea canoe instead... we shall see, I think the condition of the log will mandate what kind of boat I get....could be a row boat....

Whats important is that I get some kind of decent boat..

I have also been thinking about getting some more musical instruments.... something to entertain myself after the shit hits... before TV or Radio, or computers for that matter, humans had a good time playing music and singing... now days people just plug music into their ears, and bop their head to rhythms no one but they can hear.... But like the Don McClain song, what happens when the music dies???

Gonna have to become un-dependent if you still want any...
Make it yourselves somehow... could be handy to have something to do that with...

Also music is an emotional prop up device..... you can play the blues and get better....

The equivalent of being able to drive your car and having the gas tank fill itself from doing that....

And after the shit hits, theres going to be a lot to have the blues about folks...

One thing I noticed in life, was how much people like camping in groups... especially if there was music around the fire at night involved... I think living full time camping, and having people cook over fires and play music together is likely the best of all lives..... add in a few horses, some kids under foot, dogs begging food, and life gets real.....

I'll bet that starts happening spontaneously in the Tent Cities now forming out of the economic big lie soft collapse.... people are likely pulling out acoustic instruments, singing, etc. and dont know why....

Most are likely still with ear buds in.... they still dont get whats happening.....


Saturday, March 28th, 2009.....

morning, feeling good, woke before dawn, have received and sent my emails, got some good ones, some with information from my son, another from a friend who thinks we should build a couple rental houses here for cashflow purposes...

I have been doing design work on such houses for years as a hobby, I have a degree in construction tech., was a builder for years, and would like to get back into it... here....

Feeling OK with my life, I have learned some things, have a direction, and knowing getting there is a matter of taking steps...

Its about time to start planting... my worker will be gone most of next week, and I am thinking to work in the garden mornings, will be planting corn, rice, beans, and manicillo on raised beds, and will be digging more raised beds...

I used to dig them with a spade, but now use a grub hoe... much faster, easier, if busting your butt can be easy.... I can do one a morning, say 15 meters, which I like to divide into two sections for easy end run access with the wheelbarrow etc.....

so what I am thinking, is grub hoe one bed a day, and if I still have enough energy hoe up a bed with the lighter hoe each day, and also plant one each day, so I am working on three different beds, but getting a new one made, and one planted each day... I've found this works nicely here during the cool of the mornings, and then the afternoon rains water the seeds... and over a period of weeks one ends up with a growing garden, in plants and in size... also when my worker comes back, he will be using the hoeing technique doing areas, for rice and corn, areas we will turn into raised beds later as we get to them. And I may have him help me digging new beds also... meaning when he's around we can get two beds a day... The area I want to do has some avocado trees, but basically its a half hectare or less, maybe 250 such beds? Or 500 of the shorter ones? This will take some time to do, but we will be growing our food in the process, and soon be getting enough to maybe draw in others in our group to help with food shares in payment... We also have an area chopped now, soon done to plant tree beans, in manicillo, and also more breadnut trees as the final goal.... going to fill a small hillside with them... enough food to feed my whole group in the coming times....

I have over a dozen producing now, soon more online.... and the area I am talking about would give us more than another dozen trees... and they are good food....

Yesterday I lived on some cracked corn gruel... I joke cruel gruel, but its actually surprisingly good, maybe the hunks of pineapples, the ripe bananas, and the coconut help it? I also include hot peppers to zing my taster with....

I do suggest you experiment with the cracked corn in recipes... its definite “Man Food”, very hearty, and very cheap compared to other stuff.... I grind maybe a quart by hand, and it makes maybe a gallon, and add in what ever I have in the way of tropical or veggie goodies.....

Personally I cant believe we dont have such in our existing culture.... closest thing is some cooked cereal mixes based on corn or other grains, generally ground too fine to produce good “Chews”, and very expensive in comparison to buying or growing the grain, and grinding it yourself.....

Basically I am living on 50 cents a day boughten food, and about to boot up the corn growing thing into an absolute zero outgo economic diet.... and I dont suppose those fruit and veggie additives help in the health department?

Another interesting thing, is I have a “Miracle Fruit” bush.... its a small tree/shrub, produces a little red plum like fruit, with a big seed... but if you eat the fruit off the seed, you can then drink pure lemon juice and it tastes like orange juice, only sweeter and rich....

so I am doing several hits a day of very strong lemon aid, no sugar, and Thinking that might be healthy as well....

I've been waiting years for this miracle fruit to produce, but now am into seed, and we will be planting a bed in a nursery of them........ in due time I hope to have enough going that we can pick and take out the seeds and dry the pulp, and use in any tart foods as a replacement for sugar... also they are red in color, so likely have some good red fruit life extension goodies in them...

Also the corn I am about to start planting is the Mayan Blood red corn.... its still mixed with a lot of yellow genetics, but we will pull out the red for seed, and in a couple more generations be back to where we were.....

And we also have planted several hundred Giant Lima beans.... I think we will be into eating limas soon....

I chatted briefly with my daughter in law this morning she just went back to Oregon, says she misses Costa Rica already, and I told her to get a recording of Linda Ronstadt's Blue Bayou, which she's never heard, as she is working and saving money to come back to Costa Rica with, build a house and have kids....

She a good girl, very direct and up front, and my ex wife loves her dearly, and my son jokes that his mother loves her more, than she loves his baby brother....

Back when she was waiting to go to the states, I sent a letter to my ex wife after many years of zero communications, just to let her know not to worry that her new daughter in law was really special, loved kitchen things just like she did, and would get along fine together etc.

and my ex wife fell in love with the girl and vice versa, and they are really great buddies 24/7.... and my ex came to Costa Rica last year to meet her family and loved it here... and will be back next January, along with quite a group, guys fishing, women chatting etc. and enjoying the tropics, I think at least two new wives, i.e. That have never been here before coming down with the group.....

Basically I made a beach-head the hard way, and all these snowbird loafers are sucking up the benefits... I dont mind... I try to associate with good folks only.....

Listened to the news on VOA last night, sounds like Obama is trying to do what he must... I dont agree with giving money to the Piggy Bankers, I think they need to be taken over, nationalized, and turned into a godzillion small credit unions that make loans to small businesses and common folk only, and that the interest is then used in lieu of taxes, eliminate the IRS, and fund the government with.. imagine all that interest going into public coffers and being spent to better humanity, instead of being used to fatten swine....

Just because things are the way they are, doesn't mean thats how they should be, (a leaping lizard on my foot as I write.) and we should change things for the betterment of humanity and I dont mean by doing more of the same.....

Getting rid of taxes and bankers at the same time? Pure enlightened thinking....

As for a world currency, one already exists; precious metals and other resources, if they make a digital version, it will just be another fiat currency waiting to be manipulated by the next group of thugs and con men to get power.... I wouldn't touch it with a stick.... better get my shovel and kill it like a snake and bury it... so instead, I will make my basic goal structure to pay minimal taxes, become maximally self sufficient, and wait for the rest of the world to figure out playing the same games with the same shit heads running them, aren't going to get us anywhere new or better....

Its when you realize you aren't helpless alone, that you are in fact most powerful if you begin to better your concepts and habits, and head in the neoindigenous directions....

I'm feeling really good these days due to my best friend picking up on the neoindigenous concept, now there are at least two of us using the ideas.... and he will add things... hopefully this blog has at least a few readers, and others can ponder my ideas, and cherry pick out what works for them, come up with related stuff, and we can meet up someday at a Rendezvous and compare notes and fotos...

Well I see the paranoids were once again correct.. now the government is expanding their loose definition of Terrorist to include anybody they dont like for any reason.....

My dog is a terrorist, my little one year old niece is a terrorist, my readership are all terrorists, the only ones who aren't terrorists now are a few sleaze bags calling everybody else nasty names so they can abuse them and the rest of the dumb-fucks will think its OK...

Wake up dumb-fucks, your turn is coming....

Either we get rid of the status quo by not needing them to death, or sooner or later their death squads start in on your block....

go neoindigenous with a vengeance, its a non violent cure to shitheads trying to run your life, use you up, milk you dry, and sell you for body parts, and call it a culture....

And this shit in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Gee? How did that start? And why aren't we winning? Well because some people in the tribal/Indigenous areas want to run things their own way, and dont need no cowboys in uniforms telling them how to do it.... we have no fucking business there... and if we keep killing them, what do you think they are going to do? Every body bag has a family... and where are they getting their weapons from? And where do those folks get the money to make them? Betcha it all comes from us somehow....

if there is an area thats oppressed, why not air drop small arms into the areas most likely to want them? Very democratic: One shooter, one vote...... Why get involved physically? Drop enough weapons and good reliable ammo & and the majority will win out.... and create a well armed system of government for themselves.... Take Burma for example, start air dropping arms to the poor folks and that Junta will run the border gate getting into China and screaming “Mommy Help!” to their Chinese backers... where do the Chinese get the where with all to back them? From profits selling you a bunch of cheap shit...

and when those families doing the body count get pissed enough, the chances of Pakistan staying in the hands of the sleaze bag Corruptocracy become zero, and US being their backers isn't going to be forgotten, and they will get the nukes and have perfect reason to use them on the ass holes who financed and supported it all, read: you.....

Hey guys, violence is not a good idea, better to stay out of it keep our noses clean, be everybody's friend, and real careful about who we trade or do anything else with....

We cannot impose our cultural will on everybody and get away with it... we have to let them Cherry pick, and we have to quit supporting tyrants and sleaze bags... or else those chickens will come home to roost and shit on you know who's head...

Hey folks, politics is a big dog-knot, with every body fucking you..... best get shed of it...
as the ranchers warned us it is going to fall.....
Sunday, march 29th, 2009
morning....

Fun one... just typed up a several page book list one fingered on my fone, and had my son trash me while trying to send it.... and that was the second time to do same several pages, and get trashed by same son sending it... weeks apart... figure the odds....

Anyway, made a deer antler corn husking spike last night, finished it this morning, nifty!
A prime tool... also worked in the garden this morning, doing raised beds, got a 21 meter bed hoed up.... soil still to dry and hard, but I was feeling insistent... wanted to plant but still too dry... thinking to boot up the gardening habbit, to where I dig a new bed every morning, hoe an older bed, plant a hoed bed, and harvest a planted bed as my morning's work...

meaning food coming in every day, and garden getting bigger every day...

Will be doing corn, rice, beans, etc. in rotation with manicillo clover for ground cover... its a subsistence ploy... and in time will get me a mega-garden and a better diet... as every 90 days or so a crop and in that time literally dozens of new beds....

goal is 100% self sufficiency....

Over the years I have come up with my own system of raised beds, used to spade them with a shovel, but now use a hoe mostly, and a tool I made out of steel pipe and a hunk of leaf spring to loosen the subsoil instead of double digging them with a shovel... I also plant manicillo on them and then mulch, and have been doing really good results wise... but now building a new bigger garden area, that will take a year or so to finish.. the good news is there is a skiff of topsoil left in that area, the cattle evidently didn't like all the rocks... so I get to build a garden, and remove rocks for the next year or so... that will keep me busy...

it will also be nice to have the ever increasing food supply, and be able to do it all myself...

I'm not joking about heading for 100% neoindigenous lifestyle... slowly gnawing on it, until I get it....

30 march, 2009..
Morning, have been working this morning on a booklist for to download, my son and a friend are going to help me start the E-library project...
i.e. Stargate library....

Should be quite the project.... we'll see how we do... my friend didn't even know the book download websites were in existence, said his wife had been buying e-books from amazon...

Looks like roughly a thousand books less photos, to a gigabyte...

I currently have a couple of gigabytes of memory to play with, will get more asap....

hoping to be able to afford the micro-SD chips, maybe buy one every 90 days or so, and get a library of ten thousand or so books in the next couple of years.... all to fit in a shirt pocket...

Will also do copies on USB sticks, and Archive quality CD's....

and maybe play with some more bazaar ideas, I have a computer nerd son who has built a matrix of hard drives with about a terabyte (sp?) of memory..

it will be an ongoing project, at first with little help, less money, and worse knowledge of computer.... the reason I write is because I hope others will also do the same.... that people dont rely on internet being there forever... if the ranchers are right in the bible, chances are the internet is a temporary thing....
I would also like to do some research on EMP, and find out how I can shield my stuff... I suspect grounding, or underground storage, and if I get the economics will try to collect myself some optional reader devices and store at least one shielded and with a copy of the library... also will likely make several copies onto archive disks, and store at least one copy as a time capsule perhaps in a stainless steel can in a fire proof location, or buried in a plastic container with silicone caulking sealing the lid on? If I can I would have a hundred thousand books or more in half a dozen storage mediums and locations.... it will be easier to reboot civilisation from scratch starting with no infrastructure, than reboot it with no libraries....

to lose our libraries would be very very painful... so at least get one going for yourselves...


I think most folks will have their head up their ass until too late... it sure would be nice to know there were a few thousand people doing such library projects EMP hardened in sites all over the planet, and storing all kinds of post Armageddon readers also.... I have used my HHD fone and it works, but the files and fone are not set up to work nice together, you have to zoom in to be able to read, and then have to side shift back and forth to read the lines... it would be much better if the fone converted the files like it does emails to be able to read comfortable..... I.T. Is obviously in it's infancy... I suspect the HHD's of a couple years from now to be much better... like with better calculators, better memory systems and better for being readers and mini computers...

Currently they are designed for useless drones to use while pretending to be somebody important....

hopefully common folk will be enough of a customer base to skew the market enough to wake up the folks at the electronics manufacturers to the fact some of us do real things, and would appreciate HHDs that did something besides kiss our butt and impress our boss... I want a tool that works for me... not one that has me ready to throw the piece of shit out the window....

also we need less “RUDE” operating systems, no more popups guys, both my computer and my fone constantly interupt what I am doing to ask me if I need shit I have no fucking use for... why not have such crap scroll across the bottom or top and not interrupt one's key strokes, are you software engineers fucking morons? Or do you think the whole planet likes being interrupted over such crap?

I would also suggest shortening menus, and prioritizing them to most used closest to home...

By the way getting good feedback on Linux as an operating system, clean and fast, everything windows is NOT....

“Dirty Windows”

My son is also installing both windows and Linux on the same computers at the same time, i.e. You can choose which you wish to use at any given moment.. personally I'd rather have windows on something I can dispose of like a used condom....

Anyway.... should keep me busy doing library project... downloading from the 3rd world is always challenging...



Tuesday, March 31st, 2009..

morning....

Listened to short wave last night, from the US, Pat Kiley on his follow the money program, broadcast to over a hundred stations in the US and also on internet...

Pat is a bit windy, but last night he was telling the truth for an hour... that civil war is coming to the US....

I had hoped Obama would be intelligent enough to avoid it, but it seems he has pretty much stepped in the “Bear Trap” with his gun control and Bank Bail Out agendas....

It's been a long term agenda, Patriot act, even the gun laws post Kennedy's assasination... same group as what done it....

I once worked with the red necks, and there was this guy, very slow speaking, and came off as not too bright due to his speech patterns... but the guy was wise, which is better than bright, and many things he drawled out have proven true over time... one that hasn't yet, was that those in control wouldn't be happy until they marched all the workers to and from work at gun point between barb wire fences...

Looks like he was right about the people in control...

He also said at the time of the Soviet Collapse that we shouldn't be too smug, as our turn was coming up in ten years or so....

I think he was right on that.... and that its the answer to his first axiom...
if you dont want to be a slave labor camp internee, you had best make sure those in power dont stay there... and you do that by sticking to your guns and helping your neighbors stick to theirs, no matter what anybody else says or does....

When they try to remove your ability to defend your rights, its because they assume they can take them away afterwards.... and they then declare themselves null and void as legal government, and have broken their oaths to uphold and protect the constitution, and they then become subject to being removed by any means necessary...

THEY ARE THE ENEMY.

The military enlisted are never treated all that good, and they will know which way the wind blows.... hopefully it will be a short and bloodless paradigm shift just like Russia's was...
if not expect the Chinese to do a first strike in the middle of any civil war....

Stick to your guns son!

Everybody with half a brain will be doing the same...

and if you are thinking of cowing under, expect more milking and eventual butchering...

Basically if I grok this right, its the beginning of the Rancher's survival test, our genetics was adulterated with the “Instinctual Killers, Liars, and Thieves” genetics to provide for a fun and interesting test, to see who could survive the shit these Demons are causing...

And in warfare, those who try to hide, usually dont manage to do so, its the guys who go for it who are most likely to make it standing up after the battle, all the cowards are dead...

Its another dichotomy pair... to survive whats coming you have to find your gritty side and use it....

Like Jesus said; if you dont have a sword, sell your robe and get one...

Well we have advanced a bit since the sword days.... and now the Emperor wants your sword so he can fuck you with it.....

I dont think so... and I think there are plenty of good old boys who know that if things get worse as planned, better to be dead and take as many lying scum with you as possible...

all this god is love and peace stuff is creamy fodder for morons.... it all boils down to survival folks, and the decent people have an advantage, they can co-operate, while the instinctual killers just are able to pretend to...

If we face them off, they will turn on themselves... as one wont be able to trust the other when things get iffy....

They are smug and arrogant now.... but I suspect when Billy Bob gets done with them they will have a new asshole in their forehead...

its common man that decides the issue in doubt... and these Pig fuckers are pansies who pay others and leverage others to do their killing... and their lackeys are hanging out, if they go along, because if they eliminate all the threats to their masters, the only threat left is them.....

in whats coming, being on the right side is critical to survival.... the bible says they will die like a single man.... i.e. All pretty much at once... they and their excessive egos will push the issue until the sea of humanity crushes them into road kills....

its all arrogance and vanity based... they have nothing to back up their trips but some puppets...
and not enough puppets to stem the tide when it comes...

One more time... for our children... genetically edit the bastards if they insist on it....
Find a peaceful way out if there is one short of letting them have their way...

Morning, got food going in the pressure cooker...

Still thinking this morning about the gun rights thing and the new world order Greedheads...

They know their shit stinks and couldn't care less, and if you let them take your guns it will be the last of freedom you ever see until the ranchers return... These Greedheads are the “Instinctual Killers, Liars, and Thieves” of the Bible... they used to call themselves;

“the hereditary warrior class”

but after the French and American Revolutions went mostly underground into multinational corporations, read: “STEALTH WARFARE!”

because thats what business is... those who lose starve to death...

And if you give up your guns, their gloves come off... and you will find yourselves working for Hitlers and Stalins.... The current american government is not obeying the will of the people on issues like Patriot act, Bank bail outs, and gun control...

It is therefore constitutionally illegitimate, and it is your duty to overthrow it...

And if you dont, you deserve the death camps they will have you build for yourselves....

Hereditary Killers...

and enough mechanization and soon robotics, that they wont need you plugging up their plantet...

and they already intend to get rid of you.... if they were so nice as to rob your retirement, what do you expect they will do with you when you get to 75 or so and get sick?

And after a few years they can lower the bar to say 45 years old....

While they give themselves life extension and become GODS!

Read: Demons

Adios Mutton Heads....

In the future there are going to be three types of humans if you let them disarm you...

The Elite, Their Human Sacrificial Victims, and Wild types living in the brush and hiding from them and their kinder/gentler forms of entertainment.... looks whats on TV in movies for entertainment, surely would be a lot more entertaining to them to have the violence be real, and not fake.... The Roman civilisation which they Idolize had real entertainment grade violence.... and if you have no way to defend yourselves they can label you terrorists for being Christians, Libertarians, or for believing in silly things like Constitutions and God given rights like the right to defend your lives and property and the tools to do so....

And they will gladly up the number of police and prisions so you really dont need guns...

they are already doing it.... where do you suppose it will stop? And with the congress making a railroad car full of new laws every year, how long until there is one that nails you for something absurd, but is a felony or worse?

You know, like eating more than the allowed ration, or taking too long in the shitter when you are supposed to be working.... Or making a mistake on your Taxes....


You wont ever be safe again...


Read history folks, when has there ever been an Enlightened Ruling Class any where?
Its the slaves that get enlightened....

And their wives used...

And their kids used for sex or sacrifices...

the only limit is what you will take... before you defend yourself ...

So go ahead, let them sleaze in the new gun laws on you... and you will scream when they gas you....

Learned yesterday the word bloggeroo is in thousands pages on internet.... either there are a lot of crazies like me... or my stuff is getting read.... or both.....


Anyway with the Food crisis, which is also contrived, they will surely soon have a caloric ration law, and anyone with a big garden can either give up the excess, or go to prision camp.. and of course the elite will be exempt from the laws....

Its why they want to chip the chickens....


And you.....

It isn't going to be a brave new world, just an extension of the Cowardly old one...

I think it was Solomon who said the lazy surely pay tribute...

I say the cowardly surely get fucked....

No guts, no rights......


So you decide... fight them now when you have guns, or later when you dont.....

Whats really sick, is none of this is necessary.... the Space Elevator concept negates it all.... humanity is going to die off in a war that had no logical basis..... the Pneumatic Space Elevator negates it all.....

no crowding, plenty of food, adventure, wealth beyond imaginable... and instead we have Greedheads thinking they need to exterminate their fellow humans to be more sure of staying fat pigs in a Malthusian reality....

They are intellectually bankrupt...

And the ranchers will remove them after the little genetics lab experiment is over......

And the Rancher scoop up the improved slave genetics....

or we can get together, and be ready when the ranchers come....

and insist on our rights...

If we stop the destruction and killing, and we get our act together, they have to respect us or else.....

so... you choose... Apocalypse or get our shit together collectively... there isn't really any them and us, until the ranchers get here...


Anyway, not my problem, I am rewilding myself and so dont need to defend rights to just survive.... here on the farm we are growing food.... and if they come someday to take it, I will be ready, personally I think that from now on the system is going to go downhill so fast that it will all be over in the next five years or less...
humanity is going to exterminate themselves over being pigs and cowards and control freaks and lazy.... Adios Mutton Heads and Pig Heads alike.... (Animal Farm Planet...)

Today my worker harvested the corn we grew during the dry season when nobody grows corn.... we would have done better but for the dry and then the early rainstorm that dumped 4 inches on us.... on corn that had grown dry and so more spindly...

Anyway we got our seed.... and next week there will be three of us for two days on pickhoes doing raised beds, which will get the total treatment, and we will plant the best most red corn there.... the rest of the seed will get planted in just areas, with the hoeing technique...

We will also be starting to plant rice, and beans, and tree beans, and more trees of breadnut, and after the rains get more consistent we will transplant some breadfruit trees... The struggle continues...

I have a friend who has done a nice favor for me, he ordered some flints on line at: “flintlock supplies”, and I will soon be learning how to do the flint and steel ritual... mans oldest tech skill of importance... I know how to knap flint, but used Obsidian from my State of Oregon, and always wanted to learn flint and steel.... I have information that explains it all... Thinking to save on flint by sharpening the flint on a grinder rather than knapping it...
What I want is the materials and the skills for my bugout kit, to have it in my hunting bag and another set in my pack.... I would like it if I could come up with some way to set a hunk of flint as a pendant for a necklace.... so that no matter what I had flint on me at all times....

Other stones will spark steel, anything 7 or higher on the Mos scale... but such stone isn't found everywhere and primitive cultures often had trading routes with trails that went hundreds or even thousands of miles to supply flint...


I have bought all the people in my group glass lenses, and talking about flint etc. to my son, the lenses I bought were mentioned in conversation... he said the ones I bought him and his wife were in safe keeping in a special place... I responded they had better go into your bug out packs.. He has a Zippo lighter also... I am trying to encourage my group to pack bug out kits... not a stupid thing to do...

My guys do pretty good, worst is my Tico worker, just cant believe anything bad could happen to him here....

He used my corn husking tool today... said it worked fine, I dug out a piece of deer antler for him, to make one for himself, he was happy....

I think that about 4 months from now I will have a nice corn crop, enough to feed myself... and my worker also... we will be planting maybe a gallon of seed in the next month...

You see, I am really serious about this neoindigenous stuff.... I see it as the security of my survival.... I trust the technocult like I trust my ex wife....

I kinda remember the technocult helping her heap injustices on me and the kids....

I wont forget that wounding...



Thursday, April 2nd, 2009...
Afternoon... had a good morning, up before dawn, cleaning corn by hand, got it done, seed and food, and waste product... now drying in the sun.... enough seed to plant a nice big area, and the stuff I set aside for food, could be decent seed in a pinch...

But as I am likely to need food, and have plenty of seed, it will likely end up as something I eat... and it sure looks better quality wise than what I have been buying...

Hopefully I can get the mega-garden booted up this year, and cut the boughten food down to things like salt, baking soda, etc...

I felt good cleaning the corn, wholesome... complete.... healing myself from the technocult....



Friday, 03 April, 2009...

afternoon... had a nice morning, got the corn out drying, getting ready to cook my meal for today pretty soon...

Chatted w/a friend a couple of minutes, about all the people doing Prozac... not good really much better to solve problems than mask them....

I realized this morning that I may be able to come up with a pump I can use for a vacuum pump, one of the little 12 volt compressors for tire inflation... have to look next time at town, and see if I can access the suction side of the little piston compressor? And then come up with enough hard line and fittings to turn my larger pressure cooker into a vacuum chamber for drying food....

Would be nice for drying bananas, citrus juice, other fruits etc.....

And be very portable....

And allow me to dry small batches, and over time build up a food stock....

My friend this morning concurred with my son, people in the US too mutton headed to grok they have been screwed by the bailout of the bankers.... I like Obama, hope he can pull it off, and prevent violence, but I dont count on it, as I know hyper inflationary times are likely ahead, and today's suffering will seem like the good old days when everybody's paycheck needs a runner to get to the grocery store before it loses value...

Personally I suspect the Bible is right, everyone will be acting as normal as possible until the shit hits... Maybe its better that way, but I dont think so, would rather see more people get out and survive....

I am looking forward to doing the Mega-Garden soon, setting up my corn sheller, and one step at a time working my way towards a subsistence diet thats better than my current diet...

The Neoindigenous concept is a valid one... hurts no one... is a threat to nobody's politics or religion, and doesn't require bloodshed to make the required changes... strictly internal switching.....





Saturday, April 4th, 2009...
morning!

Feeling OK this morning, have been successful in starting to get a major problem solved... using what I have figured out to solve unsaid problem, basically moving towards more and better self sufficiency....

Heard Bob Chapman last night, he's predicting more hard inflation in the next couple of months... no surprise to me, I realized a couple years ago that their only way out of credit delima was to inflate the currency and screw the common folks fast and hard...

Glad I'm not normal... them guys are taking it aft fairly regular...

Also feeling good about my best friend adopting the neoindigenous concept for his own....
he will discover it to be very good at getting positive results in his life....

I wouldn't be without it, its like having the Great spirit in your shirt pocket, any time you need a sollution to anything, the concept provides them....

When in doubt, lean retro and natural.... hmmm? Retronatural?

I was out planning in the garden this morning, seeing that we needed to focus the raised bed construction on the more sloped areas, and use the hoeing technique on the flatter areas, thinking to maybe buy a rototiller in a year or so, and the flat areas could go to mechanized tillage... also some of the sloped areas that are gradual enough, if we step them slightly with wide enough spacing...

Thinking to boot up the red corn thing into a large enough area that I can do a bit of small scale commercial truck farming, build the saw blade stack grain mill, and cash in on the local tortilla mix at the current going rate of a dollar a pound....

My son is into ethanol fuels, and going to boot up a home scale sized production device.... maybe power a tiller off of that?

I just want to keep it as much as possible between the neoindigenous fences....

Remember folks, its a mix of modern and retro.... and its you who decides the balance point, and gets to live with the results right or wrong, as the shit keeps hitting the fan....

I should have Genny gas coming up this week, hope to cut out the steel bow limbs, work on nun chucks, etc. trying to be as relentless as possible in those directions.... keep on with the neoindigenous struggle, as I know how well it works.....

Thinking about the further attempts at limiting everyone's God given rights to have the tools for self defense.... Expect them to pull the rug out from under you just as you need it most...

But I also realize that it will most likely create the conditions to help the technologies evolve a quantum leap forward, and get us beyond control and the need for the system, Dupont, paperwork, etc.
What do I think will happen? I think the direction to head is air powered weapons....
I remember Reading in the book “Weapons” (Tunis) about early Pneumatic rifles that were banned in Europe during near Feudal times... and nowdays with paintball arms technologies, all that needs to happen, is down size the caliber to .40/10mm, up the pressure several X's, and go to a Metallic ball, say of iron grindings, held together with recycled plastic for heat glue, and so common man could have a weapon a tich hard for anyone to control, capable of full auto fire, and could be pumped up manually or with motor driven pumps...

i.e. I'm suggesting a program of getting the “Garage Guys” filling the defense weapons need demand with a currently perfectly legal full auto lethal weapon... sure, sure they will pass laws, but when the cat is out of the bag and basement pneumatic arms shops are everywhere, it will be a bit late....

So go to it guys... with big grins on your faces....

another ammo/ball option would be mild steel, maybe lathe turned to be kind of a round ball with corners, i.e. Start with say 3/8's mild steel rod, doing a short flat section, and two 45's on the ends to simulate round, and then cutting them off... this is slightly less than .40/10mm, and I would say dipping in hot recycled plastic as a lube/bore sealer, followed by a bit of parafin to keep plastic from crudding the tube, and as a further spacer/bore lube?

Meaning a 20 foot section of mild steel rod, would get you a little shy of four balls to the inch depending cutoff method, lets call it 3.5 balls to the inch? Or 840 balls to the rod?
Could be fairly cheap, especially if lathe was power feed etc. i.e. Automatic?

Would be fairly easy to envision a machine popping out the pellets like rabbits...




Sunday, April 5th, 2009..
Morning... feeling pretty good, working on solving some problems via chat system, doing pretty good, had months to think about the problem, got through all the various levels emotionally on it, and now in progress on a balanced solution.... perpetrator without a clue to being solved....

Its just like the problems with the big lie.... dont over react, dont get violent, they will get theirs in due time, you just start edging left, get your neoindigenous trip in order one step at a time and when the shit hits, you skip to ma lou, and they are still playing their ego games when its ground zero second...

I have given you both warnings and the sollutions, for your interpretation... get arty! Do it in your own style, but do it.... the wife doesn't even have to know... you just start getting the camping gear, making the projects, pony for the kids, or what ever your style is... there are always excuses for everything, find some.... just do it.. and one step at a time find yourselves outside when the walls go down....

Dont get puffed up.... slip out the back door.... Its what you really want anyway, or you wouldn't be reading this.....

Anyway, I'm doing better, have a plan, making steps on it, getting my own trip in order, solving problems.... happy dog!

Solving problems does have good effects on one... do nothing about your problems and you become an emotional “Poached Egg” over time...

The secret to success, is relentless application of effort in the same direction... it is the only way to get results in this world...

Dont point fingers, look in the mirror... what can you do to remove yourself from the situation? Dont expect the other guy or the government to change... if they do, its generally for the worse.... change yourself for the better... better habits get better results....

Anyway look forward to your escape.... its really sweet when you get to pull it off... I know...

Use every problem for it's opportunity content.... algebra: positives from negatives...


Monday, April 6th, 2009...
Afternoon, a couple of beds this morning from scratch, planted with rice the same day...
also a brother in law brought up his mare to be bred by our mountain pony stud.. they just got out... was nice to be able to send a text message ahead of them down the mountain....

Thinking about the new gun laws... and how Black Powder is once again beneath contempt...
and you know, for Neoindigenous uses it works fine... they always seem to overlook all the neoindigenous items.... no driver's licenses for horses, no building permit for a tent, no restrictions on muzzle loaders.... Check them out on line, Dixie Gun Works is an education to visit their catalog, the American Mountain men are interesting folk, and a flintlock rifle can be fed on homegrown fuel.... all in the foxfire books..... and if I was going stargate, no resupply, I'd be fine with a .54 caliber Hawken across my saddle......

Many survivalists are black powder buffs, many black powder buffs are survivalists...

There are reasons... having absolutely nothing to do with gun laws....

And its sad that the status quo sees the survivalist as an enemy.... not the case if you aren't trampling the Constitution, which you shouldn't be if you had half a brain...

Hey Morons, there were reasons they worked long and hard to come up with those documents, and anyone with half a brain who reads them and thinks about them long, gains serious respect for those who quilled them...

And if you think you can improve on them with accretions and interpretations, you are evil....

and there were reasons for the very order to the amendments, like why do you suppose free speech was first, and weapons rights were second? They could have had a right to cheap beer and Monday night football.... but one must remember they were written in a serious time before everyone had been sidetracked....

Personally I expect there to be a lot of survivors out of the black powder and archer's communities...

Anyway, one thing I notice about modern politics, is the faces change occasionally, but the long term agenda never...

why do you spose that is? Surely a conspiracy theory....

Global government sounds nice... but what happens when you get a Hitler, Stalin, or Bush in charge? Better to not even go there....

Its why the constitution and bill of rights is a bottom up approach to power folks, Jefferson would not think highly of the concept of Global government, he would see the fallacy in half a heart beat...

Oh, I think they will get their global government, just before it turns on them and kills them...

Anyway, my advice is the same as always; dont play... lighten baggage, get neoindigenous trip in order...

Anyway, I have corn to grind, wood to pack, fire to build and food to eat... and need to get to it.... do check out black powder guns as a hobby, survival skill, and stargate option....

Tuesday, April 07, 2009...
Morning..... worked with my worker got another terrace..... doing a new style on the Mega-garden, three styles actually, its an area of about half a hectare, roughly an acre, with flat areas, steep areas, and a lot of shapes, very convoluted terrain, and I think will be an incredibly pretty garden... its got the best soil on my place, due to rocks making it uncomfortable for the cows.. we are carving beds and terraces, removing rocks, and planting stuff as we go, this morning planted a bed of rice, and also an area with the hoeing technique on a flat spot....

its a bit early to plant, soil still too dry, but the seasons generally change here like clockwork, and two weeks from now it will be plenty wet......... so I'm pushing the season, planting with an Espeki or planting stick instead of broadcasting to take advantage of soil moisture in the hole... Rather than broadcasting and lying closer to the surface.. I try to use my head about agriculture, it helps sometimes.... I've seen people show up here, see what I am doing and run off and copy me, but not take the time to ask my opinion, and theres a lot to know here.... i.e. Said people are going to learn some things the hard way....

My worker just commented how fast the hoeing technique is in comparison to doing terraces and beds... its definitely a survivalist garden technique.... we will be doing several styles, but when finished, should be the prettiest garden I've ever had, and at an acre, grow all our food... my #one son will be coming here to live in a couple years, maybe less if the economy gets worse, and I want the garden built and running, so that he can have food for himself and wife... they will be trying for kids about then too.... I plan to have enough area intensively gardened to supply all our food needs that we can, and I have a friend with a farm at altitude who will be able to grow other stuff we cant and vice versa, so we will do some over the fence swapping....

This morning I sent my son an email about the antarctic ice shelf that broke off last week, that I think we are still early, but that its a good omen to be working on one's bug out kit for.... He's soon to be sharing a house, with a young guy I know and really like... will be four of them, in one house, three guys and my daughter in law to easily manage them....

I suggested they all work up their backpacks, station them in a closet by the door, decide on a plan, get some VHF type communications radios, all on the same freq., have hunting and fishing gear, food, and also put some tools and bulk food in his bread truck.... they all camp together already, and my son is a fishing fanatic with incredible luck, so if they are disaster prepared, will do OK....

I am readying for a trip to the border.... shopping! Theres an item I hope is still there, if not plenty of second choices... all seem to be somewhat neoindigenous.... its getting to be a real habit...

Learned yesterday that Walmart is about to build a big store in my area, its a ways, but able to go and come in the same day... meaning soon be able to get things unavailable here and now....

Will be quite a shock to the Ticos, especially those with businesses, especially hardware stores, they always charge as much as possible, have no interest in stocking anything not already on their shelves, and overall kind of a half assed attitude toward clients, especially foreigners....

Going to be a lot of grinning gringos there when the doors open, ready to buy stuff that they havent been able to get in years due to Tico import duties and restrictions, and Tico attitudes... and at good prices....

I have a 2 ft lizard exploring the house, a type thats usually very skittish in the brush, cool looking, he's been in a few times, evidently decided I'm harmless in spite of my looks...

My worker commented this morning how much faster the hoeing technique is than carving beds and terraces... yea... definitely, but we will be doing a little of all of the above from now on..... and the areas we have carved into shapes will be nice with the hoeing technique..... I like to do gardens with some investment in dirt work.... The Ticos will work on the same 45 degree angle slopes for their whole life and never think to carve a single foothold... I find that amazing... and knew an old guy who lived his whole life doing that... now in a wheel chair half the time due to problems with both knees....

They all bad mouth me for applying years to carving up the hillside in the orchards, and soon the mega-garden, but I'll have OK knees when they have shooting pains and no way to grow their own food anymore....

The way I see it, the best retirement is to have my orchards and garden all built, and used to living off them daily, and if and when I get old, have everything be seamless except my face...

And on it I hope to have lines of satisfaction from many many good gardening years...
Wouldn't want to look like those people I used to watch on Wall Street Week, they all looked like Vampires in dire need of Transfusions.... especially the women... must not be enough Iron in the standard business banquet? Either that or their artificial lighting is some how short a wave length or two of healthy.... Poor Fools, chasing their economic tails, doing the “More Money Mantra Loop”.......

They should be given some mental help...

Greed is a definite mental illness.... take a look....

What it does to the people, what it does to the planet... and in the case of one, the neoindigenous mindset really helps to control the materialism.... I still constantly buy stuff, but its invariably different than what I used to, thinking I would live on the same land forever doing the same Job etc. Now days I am very content inching my way toward neoindigenous subsistence.... and my possessions reflect the concept and my whole existence is becoming more of an art for the motif'...... Women like to decorate their homes with some Bliss Ninny motif's, I sugest you try neoindigenism.... its very pretty...

In fact in the new garden we have to take out a couple of trees, we will saw them into lumber, thinking to do some neoindigenous furniture projects.... also maybe soon cutting lumber for a yurt or two...

It's addictive.... going a little crazy here with my Liberation philosophy... having too much fun I think....

Chatting w/my buddy as I blog, he's telling the guys at work at his public works job in the US, that he's retiring early to become a Tropical subsistence gardener and fisherman... no joke, and better plan than their 401K.... balmy fishing weather.... garden all year... where did we go wrong? It isn't that hard to learn Spanish... its a way limited vocabulary, mostly “Hue Puta!” and other catchy local phrases.....

I think we will do pretty good... him with yacht, also some farming tools, me with a collection of fishing gear awaiting said yacht... you know, you guys must not be very imaginative, working those suck ass jobs with ZERO retirement plan if one groks the truth of the little economic problem....

Its a big Planet.... I like a life with something interesting now and then... all you have is football, soap operas, and pornos.... I'd get bored quick....

Anyway, I have to shut down, going to tap a ripe pineapple....



Thursday, 09 April, 2009.....

morning.... have been chatting this morning w/a friend, also my son....
son says ammo shortage in US, no surprise to me, I heard about it two years ago on short wave, told him, he did nothing....

And if rumor latest on short wave is right this time, Kissinger says all guns rounded up by September....

I think Kissinger and friends maybe all rounded up by September, but guns unlikely...
as part of ammo shortage is from people buying... and when people are buying enough to run the factories dry, little chance they are thinking to turn in their guns.....

Like a question Chapman got the other night on Short Wave: which states do you think will susseed first? In other words federal Government has one idea, the people have others....

guess who will win out?

Especially when the people seem to be planning to stick to their guns and give them up, lead first....

The Feds dont have a chance... there are enough guns and ammo in private hands, that all the people have to do is stick their gun out the living room window, point it in the general direction of the closest government court house, pull the trigger, empty it, and if every body donated one magazine, the federal government wouldn't exist, so many rounds expended that all the Federal buildings would be rubble in minutes.... say in a city of three million? Half the people with guns now? One point five million guns times 6 rounds equals no Federal building....

It would make the green zone in Iraq the US capitol building in short order... good place for it too!

Kissinger is an absurd sicko.... nobody with half a brain is going to give up their guns... What and miss all the fun? You guys dont seem to realize whats coming, “Get even day”....

and you've taxed and fucked us our whole lives...

chances of that continuing through whats coming/forever are absolute zero...


GO AHEAD! Try to round up the guns.. it will be fun! And Jimmy the Greek will be placing odds on lynchings versus firing squads for a bunch of fat Banquet Pigs....

The police and military will be trying to vye to be ushers at the events....

Sell tickets, put Kissinger and new world order buddies out in the center of that meteor crater in Arizona, everybody with a ticket gets a place on the rim to shoot from... probably would eliminate the national debt just in ticket sales.....

I recommend the orchestra play “The Lonely Bull..” and when the music stops; “Blammo the Ammo”....

never see Kissinger's mugly ugg on TV Again... a better world surely....
Its just a matter of time now.... we will never know what the last absurd law was, until its enacted and reacted upon....

But taking away people's means of defense IS the most likely candidate...

should be fun to watch from the sidelines......

The British tried it in the American Colonies... got them a bloody nose....

They haven't liked even the word “Bloody” every since....

Anyway, should be fun....

The SWAT teams seem to like ganging up on the occasional nut case, do you suppose they will do as well against squads of veterans? I doubt it.... after the first couple of Massacres of peaceful protesters, it will be a shooting gallery at the Federal Buildings....

Glad I got out, the whole Novela is sickening....

Beautiful day here, I shelled some corn by hand at daylight, for tomorrow's food, eating just bananas today, my chat buddy says organic bananas a dollar a pound in the US, I had to tell the dog, so she would know how good we have it...

I get stalks that average 30-40 lbs, planting more clumps soon, hate to think what Organic Pineapple goes for up there in Vanity land....

I think people are figuring out that the howdy doody faces on TV occasionally change, but the overall agenda seems to stay on course with catastrophe....

Going to play a little Russian Roulette with Reality I think..... the Status quo keeps pushing, and sooner or later the big push back....

Anyway my buddy says his talking at work about his retirement consisting of subsistence gardening, and fishing in a tropical Paradise, with the Farm already in progress, gets some bad reactions from the Hyenas at his job.... they dont like thinking about anything so obviously better than their 401K.....

Adios Hyenas....

he says some actually take him aside later and thank him for giving them better ideas etc.....

I think realestate in the Tropics has a good future....

get out while you still can.....

He also said his other buddy we went to school with is fixing up his school bus... guy did have a job up until a month ago... I suspect the bank will soon get the house back... and the wife get a reality check... It's a “Love Bus” dear......

Its going to be funny to see how women react to cascading reality.... going to be lots of them doing things they swore never to do.... like living homeless... cooking over a fire, bathing in a creek, and happy as hell to get really simple food in their mouths...

You dont suppose the guys will figure out they like living mobile, subsistence gardening, fishing, Hunting, etc. more than holding down a job at the factory? Sorry dear... no jobs... either pull weeds and cook fish, or go talk to your lawyer....

Guys, focus on the Camping Gear etc... just act stupid if the woman bitches about it... but keep filling in on your missing stuff.... Bitching is not fatal, albeit more than a little toxic...
and having your refugee trip in order is about to become the Critical issue for you...

Dont forget the gardening tools..... Walmart has a nice selection.... pick out the more durable and portable tools.... a good pickhoe for sure.... a lighter tillage hoe, and a cultivation hoe also... make sure to have a machete, as your homeless garden will surely be someplace where now stands brush.... get a good axe for the fire wood.... see if they have some quality tarps, not those blue things... good real greenhouse plastic sheeting would be better... plenty of rope and cord, some flat mill files to sharpen things, certainly a handsaw... Might look for a folding cot, and a good sleeping bag or blankets.... and dont forget a Zippo lighter, and a magnifying lens.... and get a good knife.... and a decent sharpening stone... and a new coat and boots... run up the old credit line... get even for all the interest payments to the bank on the lost house....

Might even get that canoe or bass boat you've always wanted... something to fish out of...

make sure tarp covers the bass boat nice on its frame of saplings... turn in the keys to the pickup truck after you have the boat at the river... cruise the banks looking for a good area to go into an build a little garden... Corps of Engineers private campgrounds... anyplace back in where nobody goes, the fishing is good, and the soil good enough for corn......

Best get your trip in order and camp spot occupied before the rush starts....

Use your unemployment and food stamps to shop the organic bulk food places... getting seed....

because when it runs out, you had best be having good crops by then, and it takes failures to learn by....

Anyway, welcome to the end of consumerism world, the the beginnings of Subsistence world...

Dont worry, be happy....





Saturday, April 11th, 2009......
Morning, feeling ok, munching raw coconut, just did some dishes and a bath.... nothing on my agenda today, had some friends visit yesterday, women with their mates, and a father in law.... interesting guy, spent some years in Prison, has a scar from a stab wound low in his shoulder, and the exit wound through about six inches of meat out his back.... bet that hurt pretty good.... not a bad guy, think he was in on Excessive Hormones charges... I listened to a bit of short wave last night, WBCQ, and enjoyed a report on the history of solid state transistor radios from Japan in the 50's.... Radio has been a love of mine my whole life... hope to live long enough to someday learn the tech end, to date mostly an operator.....

Anyway had a fun visit with my friends.. have known the women since they were girls, was happy to converse with them all.. fruit from my farm goes to several houses now, friends, with kids, just keeping my group healthy as I can....

Feeling pretty good, chatted with my buddy most of yesterday... planning to try a personals ad on Craig's List, having fun with that one, I'm a bit of a rare case, and snickering thinking of women reading my ad in far places... surely confused looks on thousands of faces.... but you never know... surely millions of women who like Nature, and would enjoy living in a nice place with out all the stresses and problems.....

We'll see what the responses are... if there are more interesteds than insulteds....

All I care about is finding somebody who likes living simple, and not into all the vanity, greed, and head games so common in these times...

I'm just a lone wolf on a mountain... a boy and his dog and horse........ nothing complicated....
but enough burnt on whats normal to not want much of that anymore...

Anyway, feeling good with my neoindigenism, it works so amazingly good.... keeps me out of problems, solves others, and is a lot of fun.... watched my friends yesterday, a couple of the guys had never been up here before.... They were a bit amazed at my trip... the women liked my fire pit, one liked the manicillo pasture, wanted to come camp with her boyfriend there, a shock to me, have never heard a Tica want to go camping before... but it is a pretty spot, has an incredible view, and she'd feel safe there... I like her boyfriend, nice guy, country kid, into computers...

I've been trying the giant Lima beans in cooking.... and they aren't too bad, a bit rich, I got too many in yesterday's soup, also red beans, and These days I prefer to eat on the lighter side.... I'm thinking to try sprouting them... I like sprouts a lot, would multiply the food mass, and also change the flavor some...

one thing I do with normal beans, is sprouts, cooked with onions, garlic, hot peppers, served over rice... thats a pretty good staple... and one can add whatever one has to it in the way of vegetables.. Sprout making is very definitely a good subsistence skill and habit..... turns dry seeds into crunchy munchies, that are even better for you....

Have had the Osprey that came a few days ago hanging around my area, he was in a tree by my tent the other morning and I talked to him and he didn't react nervously.... very majestic bird... obviously likes my farm... with its updrafts and views and open areas to hunt, and forested areas also.... I consider it a compliment when rare wildlife chooses to live close to me.... They can feel the attitude.... a human who leaves place and space for them no problem....

And it goes along with my lifestyle.... I'm sure if a woman came, she would be amazed at the whole thing.... I've been very successful in rewilding my self.....

Starting to think about doing some arrows soon, have a Quajada log to turn into lumber, and its some of the nicest wood.... thinking to quarter saw a bit of it, and have a friend with a table saw cut me some splints out of some of the nicer hunks... Basically if I can impress upon him the necessity of getting straight cuts, I can maybe come up with several hundred or more half inch square blanks, allowing me to use my block plane and turn them into arrow blanks.... something to do in the mornings, I can turn one out from a split of much harder wood in an hour, so with the quajada being nice to plane by hand, and having blanks closer to the desired size, I'd guess 45 minutes would get me an arrow ready to fletch....

Meaning I could then make a habit of working blanks into shafts, and over a few months, come up with a cashe of shafts worth more to me than gold......

I would like to have such a cashe... it would give me a very secure feeling.... a couple hundred arrows would go a long ways in a survival situation, and not take up much space bundled... 500 wouldn't be too many...

My son was talking about the current Ammo shortages in the US... homeland security arming up, millions of rounds, average folks arming up, millions of rounds..... not a problem if both groups are on the same side... I suspect they will be, but not at first... basically the status quo is thinking they can take on the people by outlawing guns first and having their way with them later... the people seem to see it different.... I think that from now on gun laws pretty much become wasted paper, no on is going to obey.... and if the status quo pushes the issue, adios status quo... the people aren't that stupid, some yes, most no, and its why the numbers of gun owners are climbing, and the size of personal ammo stashes growing... I got two emails this week from unconnected people, both buying ammo..... and neither likely to work for homeland security...

Kissinger can brag to the Russians that all the guns will be rounded up by September if he wants, I dont think the Russians are stupid enough to believe him, I'm sure they were looking at each other with wide eyes after that one... taking one person's gun away is risky business, taking away a hundred million guns gets to be a bit of a problem if they decide to not co-operate, and considering the 2nd ammendment to the Constitution, said government would automatically negate its rights to do so, at the point it tried....

And if the American people are helping run the munitions factories dry, sorry Barak, this one isn't going to fly... Chief has limits, tribe does not....

And the status quo is about to relearn an important lesson; where the power actually comes from... certainly not a bunch of fat liars in the house and senate.... and there's not a cop anywhere who wants to take on the whole neighborhood in a gunfight....

This whole power pyramid is based on a single assumption, that the people will automatically do as told by someone with a job title....

This seems to work up to certain limits.... and the line seems to be when they collectively have had it with the constant and continual shit from the arrogant cock suckers in Washington...

Its like Allan Wiener's comment on a WBCQ rerun program the other night, that the whole state of Maine was heavily armed... what do you suppose the chances are of all those people meekly turning in their guns because some drone says its a new law?

And thats not the only state/area to fit that description...

Basically there is a line in the sand here somewhere, and some stuffed shirts are thinking they can mandate reality with a simple stroke of a pen.... I dont think so.... and I think you are going to have a hard time finding Jurys ready to convict people of defending their constitutional rights... what we have approaching is a political fur ball... and I know who is going to be the eventual losers....

The Arrogant assholes making grand assumptions....

Before this is all over, we will see the breakup of the United states, back into smaller political groups and regions, and they wont be doing it to promote the new world order by any means...

There are some paths better not taken, there are some rivers better not crossed, and there are many laws no one obeys, and some laws that can start civil wars... and the recent gun laws are more straws upon that camel... perfectly honest citizens will soon be criminalized for using their constitutional rights... I had hoped Obama would be intelligent enough to not do this... but he is a city person and a lawyer, and as I feared, thinks laws mandate reality and cure all... actually they do affect reality, but generally in a manner opposite to supposed original intent... The Tao Te Ching states more laws more thievery and crimes... and more strange things happen... I think there is a direct connection between laws and corruption... and the more laws, what you get is not a more ordered society, but more corruption instead, & I'd guess that there is a direct inverse proportion between laws and stability of a culture...

I heard a comment on short wave, supposedly attributed to Barak... it was about the right wing survivalists, and that they wouldn't let go of their guns or their religion....

well... yes those right wing bible thumpers are a bit obnoxious at times, but they have a god given and Constitutional right to both those issues, with no infringement what so ever....

and with what I grok about status quos, the right to keep and bear arms was more pointed at them, read: tyrants, than at common Thieves breaking in at night....

And yes, the religion thing is burdensome to others not sharing their beliefs.... but it is their right, and if what I suspect about the Bible is true, i.e. What Genesis 6 and Ezekiel one teach, they are going to be on the eventual winning side.... Because when the Star Of Bethlehem returns, what the arrogant Porkers in Washington D.C. Or Paris, London, Moscow, etc. have to say or do isn't going to mean dog shit.... because any culture with a technology capable of star travel isn't going to likely alter its agenda for a culture with a bunch of heavy slow missiles carrying nukes, that they can use energy weapons on as soon or before, the silo doors even open...

They will have the high ground, and they will have the superior arms... and enough energy on tap in a star ship, to melt thousands of targets into slag, in a matter of seconds...

So..... humans do love to be on the winning side.... its the smart thing to do....

And this time the winning side, is the one that cheers when “New Jerusalem” appears in the heavens.... I've scaled it out from cubits, and I'm not sure about the equivalents I had to use, but we are talking about a ship perhaps hundreds of miles across.... and evidently possessing anti-gravity.....

I dont think I would worry too much about guns being taken away? Who's going to do it?
There arent enough police and military to physically pack the guns out to the trucks if everyone thought it OK.... the whole scam depends on the people doing all the work.... I dont think I'd be doing that work, I think I'd be guarding my doors and windows... or out in the brush with an over watch of my house area...

This IS the line folks..... These are the RED COATS..... and they will do a massacre like the Brits did, or like Waco Texas, Ruby Ridge Idaho, and everybody will know they either have to fight united, or go down separate... I predict a very disgustingly short civil war at most.. the trials and hangings of the status quo types will take longer.... and I personally suspect a rush to join the side opposing the status quo... and suggest the police keep traffic moving efficiently during the rush...

Basically the more laws you pass, the more absurd things become... And I hear there are millions of people buying guns and ammo as I write... Sure seems strange, maybe they just want to have plenty to give up? by September Henry?


Later.... nice day here, balmy breeze.... did a bath in the spring... I'm fed, clean, content...
Funny thing about this Neoindigenism thing, the longer I stick with the course, the more content I find myself... I never was happy in the system... not as a kid in school, not as a young man trying to find a career, the system generally and invariably sucked to me.....

So I dont expect to miss it much.... I've been constantly edging to the left stage exit, and I really dont have that much going on that depends on the technocult to continue....

if it hangs on another six months, I will be pretty much set up to live entirely without it for the rest of my days.... I need to stock up on a few files to sharpen garden tools with, maybe get a couple three machetes as a reserve, perhaps buy a few cheap cleavers to cut up into arrowheads.... I work my way these directions incessantly... but I have no fear.....

In fact I look forward to it.... so that the planet can begin to heal itself... and people will become people again, instead of TV Zombies....

Payday here soon, will be going shopping, mostly my food for the month... thinking to maybe buy some flour and enjoy some bread making? Its been awhile.... I'm still waiting on the rains to come so we can plant the next crop of corn... so a month “Bread heavy” would be nice.... when the corn comes in, I will be using it for my bulk diet....

I also am happy about a gift a friend bought me, the flint and steel to learn sparking technique with... those should go in the mail next week, be here in a few weeks, and I will be making some kind of holders and handles to assist the en devour...

They will go into survival kit.... its a couple hunks of flint and a couple steel rods, one set will go in number one bug out pack, and the other in my hunting possibles bag....

I hung the deer antler corn shucking tool on the possibles bag... It amazes me, that basically a bone knife still exists commonly, in the modern world... that corn is an ancient enough food source to warrant a bone knife, and that people in some parts of the world still make such without really realizing what they are doing.... I figured it was appropriate, that my survival bag have the tool on it, to open my number one food source with....

I also tried the little mini-pickhoe the other day for a weeding hoe, worked very well... hoping to get a slightly larger version soon.... collecting gardening tools... a good idea...

One of the couples who came to visit yesterday seemed interested in gardening with us... they have a house in an area built so tight no room for more than a single shrub in the yard...
The husband is a really good decent person, works as a mechanic, they have a little girl...
and I suggested they either come take over a hunk of garden for themselves, or come help us with the bigger garden, when its up and running in 6 months, and pack home food on a regular basis... I could tell they both liked the idea.... The woman is my daughter in law's sister, and my best english student to date, very good young lady, and a very good friend...
The daughter I never had.....

I was thinking the other day about some kind of simple tool to help shell corn... I have a hand crank of the type, that I have loved all my life, ubiquitous in every farmyard when I was a kid... but I am wondering about some kind of simple device, say that works in the hands to shell the dry corn off the cob? One's thumb gets sore doing too much of it by hand... (have a little bird visiting, “O.D. Gray” he's getting fairly tame and has a mate now... comes to my outdoor kitchen area, cleaning up dropped corn etc.....)

Anyway, its just a concept to chew on.... some kind of simple tool... I'll think on it for a long time, and eventually come up with a simple enough idea... and play around making them until I get something that works really good....

I also am thinking about doing a stone grain grinding mill, like an oversized mortar and pestle carved from stone and wood.... I suspect for cracked corn such a system would be faster and easier than my crank handle grain mill...

I have a diamond cutting wheel that will fit on a small angle head metal grinder... right now I am looking for the correct rock to carve the hole into.... and I have the pestle started too....

Its a neoindigenous concept.... something to toy around with.... learning a skill that can go with me in my head even where the grainmill cant go..... primitive peoples used such devices.... all over the world, and even gold miners in the 1800's used “Post Mills” to break up or grind ore.....

My young women friends were worried about me yesterday, they thought I was too thin.... I had to explain the longevity thing to them... that the less you eat, the longer you live...
I feel better, its almost like being anorexic, but without the mental problem... I just keep my diet simple, gave up boughten oils, sugar, and coffee, and now I feel a lot better... it all started with observing that vegetarian people were invariably thin... I tried it and lost weight, and didn't miss the meat at all.... then when I quit cooking oil, got thinner, and also had my life long skin problem start clearing up immediately... it got better for months, and when I gave up coffee and sugar a few months back got even better... this morning my skin is better than its been since I was young... basically I can eat all I want an not get fat.... its the animal and vegetable fats and the sugars that cause weight gain.... and they and coffee seem to be directly related to my skin problem... which is almost gone now...

Anyway... its clouding up now, I need to shut down.... hopefully I've said something meaningful to you today...







Monday, April 13th 2009....

morning, pretty one.... did some communications work this morning, also watched my worker do a small area for rice and get it planted.....

Learned from him two friends died last week from my village....

Their mother used to sew my clothes.... until she ripped me off for cloth to do a shirt.... and within 6 months or so her oldest son who was a rip off type in village got killed in a motorcycle accident.. now two more sons have died, drowning at the beach, both drunk. One got into trouble and the other went out to help him... both good guys, one a good personal friend... now only surviving sibling is a sister....

Moral of the story? Dont do bad things, bad luck follows... it amazes me how everything in the Universe seeks balance, planets, stars, energy, particles, everything without exception, but humans think that they can do shit and nothing will happen to them....

if every thing without exception has to balance, what do you suppose the odds are Karma, Luck, etc. dont balance too?

Pretty small chance....

Bad things happen to good people... but good people aren't perfect, and often,
do “not so good” things.... not a good idea...... because bad things happen to good people... and why push your luck? Bad idea....

I was more than a little pissed when the woman ripped me off for my shirt... she used the camouflage cloth to do a shirt for one of her sons... the one who I liked most and had a good friendship going with... and I wonder is my anger carried over into the karmic energy world? Because if it did, I would gladly have forgiven the cloth stolen, if to prevent the death of my friend.....

I would not want anyone to suffer the loss of a child...

I was talking with my worker this morning, telling him the economy and inflation are very much likely to worsen... and he blurted out “Dont they care what they do to the people?!”

I pointed out millions already hunger, and the top few richest men have more than the bottom 40 countries, so no, evidently they dont care, and if millions are starving, whats a few more?? including him, his wife, and daughter? And I am working things towards a big one acre garden... its what he was working on this morning... I cant eat all the food... I'm doing it so all the people in my group have it when the shit hits... have the friend with the concrete yacht, my sons, and some other friends, who may just need a place to go with food, water, and cooking fuel... Said friend w/ yacht will be here in a year or a little more.... son number one in about 2years... others when they wake up and realize its time to run...

Anyway, trying to get ahead of the curve.... and figure 6 months to carve the garden area... also working things towards the idea that we may all need to garden cooperatively... people now living on the money economy.... not an easy idea to get across to people from a really egocentric culture... but I did see my young woman friend and her husband nod as they looked at the area, and I told them they could come garden, either a private patch, or with the rest of us, or both..... they live in a really tight Barrio, in a tiny house, with neighbors leaning on their elbow on all sides....

and so I think getting out and into some space and growing food would sound appealing to them.... they told me to let them know when the garden was in/carved.....

I suspect in about 4 months we will be harvesting enough rice, that we will need them to haul it to the Pilador for hulling.... I will also likely ask them to help harvest, and do it on shares....

also learned another brother in law is having problems with our local Drug Dealer who drives a US military yellow HUMMER.... the guy sells drugs in Golfito, and bought land in our village...

his worker and a brother in law in my group had a dispute, and now problems on a land deal due to access... I suspect dispute was druggers trying to keep people off the farm for some reason or another... anyway, brother in law now maybe backing out on a realestate deal... and so I offered to let him help us on garden project... he has a wife and six....

My guess helping these people will be thankless and problematic for me... but we shall see... I dont see anyone else doing much that will be viable in a couple of years time....

And it wont hurt my karma to try to do something good...

Today I sent a pineapple down the hill... going to be a young mother and her baby munching on ripe organic pineapple....

Its a small thing, but a good thing.... I also talked/chatted with my friend and let him know part of my intentions on the new garden was to have food production booted for when he arrived, so he'd be able to eat without spending so much while he got a shelter etc., and things settled....

he offered to help economically... I said better off keep pumping your farm, I hope to get some Cabbages and spuds from him in trade....

I think in the future its not only who you know, but what you grow that will count...

And the chances of local control matrices continuing to pass more and more really stupid laws and not having a collapse diminish daily.... the human stupidity cant continue forever with no adverse effects...

People need left alone to grow food etc. or soon there will be nothing left to feed anybody...

Learned yesterday that a friend's friend paid $22,000 in building permits....

I remember when you could buy a new brick house in Florida for $20 G......... how much longer do you think such shit will worsen until nothing functions? Not long....

and it continues as I write... we may be the first culture in human history to tax and regulate and improve ourselves out of existence....

I think I will keep pushing on the garden....

There are these friends who believe tomorrow will be just like today forever... I think they are being really silly... and if they wont listen to warnings, well maybe I will just manage up a big garden just in case....


Also learned this Morning that two latest chapters of my blog got posted... I havent a clue if anybody reads this shit, but I have learned my son does, his wife likes it, and another friend reads sometimes.... but after several months of no postings, we are back more current again, and maybe soon a bit more to post.....

The last two postings, that went up this week have the Ezekiel 1 info in them... if anybody is reading, I should see a spike in the number of times Ezekiel 1 gets mentioned on the web.. i.e. People reading and turning friends onto my thesis....

Its a very controversial item... maybe cause some screaming? Sorry, but the truth is as I see it...

Hopefully if it does cause controversy, people will realize what I have been saying about the Bible to perhaps be true.... if so, maybe others will take the Bible more seriously for knowing what it really is, and more people will prepare and struggle to better themselves in preparation for whats coming... I hope so....

and I suspect if it does cause a stir, more people will also read the other things I say, and get more concepts mainstreamed.... like the Space Elevator treatise....

Anyway... I need to go take another bath, and wash my cutting board... kept a pineapple for myself also.....


Wednesday April 15th, 2009........
A couple days later... Went to Canoas yesterday, picked up a nice Fiddle for $65 new...
I'm happy dog today, have a Fiddle again... also got a few stainless cans for a buck each...
Stopped by my little niece's house on way home, she climbed all over me, Said “Gris! UP! In english... good kid.... she was enthralled with the fiddle... had a good day, got a duffel bag for my 8 inch camping kitchen.... Talked to another pretty woman, got her name, gave her mine, I've talked to her a few times, and this time she came up to me, I was busy with a transaction in the store she works at... nice looking lady, two kids, single....

Also ran into a guaymi friend, that was funny, four guaymis on a bench, and I said that I figured the Indians weren't much bothered by the economy, just plant food like always, & watch the Latins go nuts over the inflation , and all four were nodding and grinning....

Being indigenous works for them.......

Being neoindigenous works for me...

Hows the big lie working for you?

My workers did some serious dirt work, carving a trail in what will be an area of fairly flat terraces, on high end of the new Mega Garden... Learned that one brother in law's realestate deal fell thru and now he wants to join up with us more, he has six kids and no place for a garden.....

And he's the most Organic Tico I know of.. knows his shit....

Long time serious Gardener..... he and my worker want to plant an area of Casava, and hoe up the dirt, they are getting into the hoe trip....

before this is over, going to suck in my whole group, feed 'em & lead 'em.....

When my buddy shows up with the yacht, should be a pretty good life....

Subsistence gardening and fishing offshore.... we're talking about rigging the yacht neoindigenous.... should be more fun than participating in the demise of the techno cult....

Anyway.... feeling pretty good today, just ate, subsistence garden stew.......






Thursday, April 16th, 2009....

Morning, feeling OK, Chatted just a few minutes with a friend in the US, organized a bit this morning, also playing the new fiddle, trying to get back in style....

Listened to short wave last night... heard some Bob Chapman, sounds like a couple years of worsening situation w/economy, he thinks they want to start world war three... I suspect same, the economic trip is conditioning for the Mutton Heads...

Also heard the US government sent several hundred people to the G20 meeting.... to do what one guy with a clip board could do....

Funny, how none of that seems all that important to me... It has little effect on my life, I'm not trying to hold down a job, get rich, or go into politics, I just listen to short wave as a hobby, for the learning, and the experiences...

Had a laugh this morning, looked in the mirror and realized I was starting to look like a classical violinist from a hundred years ago... the long hair and beard, ageing, like some man out of a small village in the Bavarian Mountains... We are our ancestors....

I think about the old cultures, They must have been fairly content, no money to speak of, cooked in the fireplace, carried water in buckets, grew their own food... made things they needed....

I think the coming war will get out of hand for the Bully Boys... likely exterminate their own silly asses... and a few billion others too stupid to get out...

Cant say I'll miss the sheep dog types.. I will feel sorry for the poor Mutton Heads, but not shit I can do to stop it at this point....

Glad to be a Coyote...

Happy these days to be getting my own life in order for whats coming... its a simplification, like going back to being a boyscout... But I know what the game is....
the big survival test....

And I'd feel good if I could make it through it all....

I like the challenge...

I saw some nice backpacks at Canoas, so far no frame packs here, but as more and more materialism comes into the area, the types of available backpacks is improving.. I also was looking at an air rifle... something to guard the garden with.... I packed my 8 inch camping kitchen set into a duffel this morning, its only short a few item, needs a bit more silverware, another cup, and maybe a couple of bowls....

I'm very happy with that kit.. Basically its set up with everything I need to feed two people out of comfortably long term.. in a refugee situation I wouldn't want for much...

I got some little stainless cans, or canisters, very handy in the brush, rat proof, roach proof, and moisture proof.. And they wont degrade like plastic containers....

I think the key to whats coming is to dig in at a humble level.. like Thoreau on Walden, you dont need much, just need the cabin by the lake, and what you could pack in...

All the issues are practical... not a lot of vanity.. my biggest mirror is a 5 inch circle.. its all I need and I got by for years on a smaller one...

I'm thinking if I can get a bigger backpack, to combine refugee kits one and two... I am always reorganizing things... Trying for optimum..

I didn't get any garden tools this time, I looked, but was a bit short on cash from buying the fiddle... And have my eye on an item, maybe next month... what I want, is when my son gets here to live permanently in a couple years, to have all the basics we need..... he likes to garden, his wife is an excellent cook, and I hope to have it all up and running and all the stuff we need... am also thinking about making several yurt frames, more than I need, so that they and maybe other friends have a place to stay.. I'm poor as dirt, but I use what resources I get to do the most I can...




Friday, April 17th 2009....

Good afternoon.. I'm feeling OK, spent the morning getting food done, then a siesta to make up for waking very early... Had a night mare wake me..

I have been thinking this morning a bit about the Lord of the Ring series, Tolkien, and what a good example it is of a pretend retro culture.. its like the neoindigenous thing, a foundation that one could graft onto...

If one were to think about our imaginary Hobbits, Dwarves, Elves, and Men, and think about what they would own and what they would carry, and what they would be doing in their lives, one would actually have a really good picture of what one could copy as a survival/subsistence ploy....

Knives, swords, bows and arrows... simple camping gear, Beer in the barrel in the cellar, and smoked hams down there too...

Another such example is C.J. Cherryh's “Goblin Mirror” kind of a take off on a similar imaginary world, Were the background culture is a stable and harmonious one....

And my point is that one could do worse, than to copy such themes in real life...
Like my neoindigenism, it would work well...

In the Tao Te Ching, Lao states that the sage is always bringing the people back to what they have forgotten... i.e. People always go off on un workable tangents, and returning the horse to the homestead and patching the fence is generally a good idea....

Take these problems with the economy etc. just a big tangent where people were sucked into doing things the “easy” way with credit, much to the benefit of those who ran the scheme...

There is still no major food problem on the planet... plenty of land, water and sunshine... but we have billions who dont consider that to be really real, they live in Urbanville...

Well, thats kind of getting to be an unworkable model... mostly due to the management being instinctual killers, thieves, and liars....

One best find some self management and do it sudden...

With freedom comes responsibility.... and with responsibility also comes freedom, as automatic as morning comes with sunrise...

What I hear on short wave these days is a horrid tale... A Planetary Nightmare in progress, and you need to wake yourselves and get out of it, turn on the lights, make some breakfast, and wait for a new day to disspell the dread...

To do that, you need to be able to shift realities, and to do that, you need a basis to start from... Which is why I mention Middle Earth, and Elves and such.....

Nothing to keep you from sewing up some green clothes, making a longbow and good sword, acquiring a good forest axe, flint and steel, knife, pot and pan, and a tarp and blanket, a few fish hooks and line, a file and a stone, and a bag of meal, and starting on your way... I'd also want a decent hoe, saw, drill, block plane, hammer, chisel, etc. but basically its a short list to get to being able to turn natural resources into a livelihood...

Besides, Middle Earth has style...

Years ago the Mideival craze went through the dry grass of the counter culture generation of its time... I got to go to exactly one “Renaissance Fair” and was happy I did... The state of the art wasn't too much, but it was something, There were swords and sword battling, there was archery, there were crafts, it was generally a good experience... But every body went back to their job and payments...

But what if you were to find yourself without the job? And uh-oh! Cant do the payments! There goes the house and the car..... hmm? Going to have to dump some materialism... What should I keep?

Wouldn't it be good if what you kept had a theme to it? Something to keep the horse between the fences?

I've seen a lot of homeless types living in old cars.....

But I suspect that many wont be that lucky to have an older paid off car....

And if you did, they make fairly cramped and uncomfortable camping devices...

But if somehow you could slip out of the problem with a packsaddle, pony, a decent tarp or tent, bedding, tools, weapons, cookware, fire starting stuff, and say you got to somewhere the sun did shine, and mornings were generally nice, you could fairly soon have a hut back in the brush that you snugged up and snugged into... not impossible to live in as little as a 6ft by 8 foot space for one person... on shacks, cabins, etc., the biggest problem is the roof....

A tarp over poles would be enough, or so would the ubiquitous corrugated galvanized steel roofing... bark will work, as will thatch, And even enough poles laid a top one another at a steep enough angle will shed all the water, and can be chinked with clay or moss to keep the wind chill factor low enough to stand...

I moved to the tropics, which turned into a good decision... no need for the chinking... I hung up a few old blankets and ragged tarps, live happy dog in those parameters... only made one payment...

I still keep tabs on the technocult, via short wave and emails/chats with my group, and I keep edging myself retro, as I can.... and I would have had a lot less problems, if when I had started out, I had envisioned in my noggin some form of cultural vignette, like the neoindigenous thing, or middle earth, or even prehistoric Japanese or African culture, and went for it... my point is the parameters have a certain value.. and I muddled along for years before I figured out who I was, and what I should be doing, by stumbling around in the pre-dawn of enlightenment dark, half in and half out of the technocult... having a vignette set in my mind would have made getting there so much easier....

Not knowing where you are going, is a hard trail to any meaningful destination...

Anyway, I am happy dog these days, got the new fiddle to twiddle, and about tomorrow a couple hunks of Good English Flint will be on their way to me... both items “Fill in” my imaginary little beyond technocult reality... and if things get gritty, I know to fall back on the most basic of basics.... a bow rather than a gun... a pony rather than a car, a violin rather than a radio, and a flint rather than a disposable lighter... do you see where I am going?

Where are you headed friend?





Saturday, April 18th 2009..

Morning, just took my first bath for the day in the spring... Feeling pretty good, slept OK...
listened to short wave last night, got Radio Bulgaria in Spanish doing some really good Classical German & Russian Violin music, also got Radio Romania in english doing some folk music, in this case Church singing like I've never heard before... not like the shit in the US, this was more baroque, very nice to listen to...

Looking forward to being able to access the web and download stuff, so I can listen repeatedly to violin music from various cultures and begin to pick out the pieces and play them... got a decent violin now, and feeling good about it.... thinking my way around some of my old blockages... Heard one piece from Bavaria last night that was impressive work on a fiddle....

I heard Bob Chapman the other night talking about old people in the technocult, God's waiting room as he called it, and that they were bitter because they knew they would die soon, and spent their time visiting friends in hospitals, and complaining about their own illnesses.....

I'd imagine these days they are in shock about their retirements... never imagined that the predators at the top they sucked up to, would cut their throats quite so efficiently....

Well, if I make it into old age, I want to be drying herbs, making good food, gardening, playing music, getting plenty of exercise, laughing often, be a respected and loved part of a group of younger people, have my place in that group, and keep them on track and getting results and success, and surviving in whats coming and if possible prospering in spite of it, and when the Ranchers show up have nice environmentally positive projects to my credit, be able to hand them a home brew, a big plate of food, slap them on the back, tell them about time they showed up to help us with the instinctual Killers, Liars, and Thieves, and is there any room for my group on a colony ship to someplace were the deer and salmon still abound?

The Happy Hunting grounds....


Learned this morning that my two hunks of English flint are on the way, along with an E string for the Fiddle, so new toys in a couple of weeks, thinking one hunk of flint to make a wooden handle for, and the other make some kind of setting where I can hang it on a necklace or thong... maybe put it in my Tarzan knife survival kit? And the one with the handle into my stainless can, fire starting kit, with some tinder of dried and scorched coconut husk, mixed with ground dried coconut shell... also thinking to include in that kit a small bottle of lighter fluid or gasoline, and a small plastic tube out of a Bic pen, to get a drop of gas out of the bottle with... Thinking maybe a Tabasco sauce bottle, they are small and tough, and have the tiny cap, with a gasket to prevent leakage, and are see through for removing the drop of gas via capillary tube.. same capillary tube/Tabasco bottle system could work with the welder's striker, or the modern survival toy magnesium/fake flint striker tech., or with one of the Piezoelectric sparking devices I've saved out of disposable lighters....

And the coconut husk/shell tinder would work with the lens also in said kit...

I think that fire starting kit will go into my 8 inch kitchen duffel... its what I consider my prime personal or refugee kitchen.... I've kind of divided the Bug-out packs and Refugee Packs, Bug-out will likely end up as a backpack with a bit of everything, and refugee packing will be more the portage model, assuming time to load a packsaddle on old Clipper the handsome mountain Pony...

I have been buying duffels, packs, and bags as I can, and organizing my things into them...
And seeing a larger nicer camouflage backpack in Paso Canoas, and if its still there will likely get it next month... for my prime bug-out pack... in it I may put what I call my 6 inch kitchen.. which is a minimalistic cooking set based around a six inch size... I've lived at six inch levels long term before, its not pleasant, but you do live...

And what I have, makes a lot more sense, than regular backpacker's or military Mess kits/cookware, its all just downsized household cookware that will stand up to rough usages...
I am hoping to upgrade a couple items in the 6inch kit, to go from the Cast Iron fry-pan to a lighter stainless, and from the stainless long handled pot to one with side handles... Thats what I did in the 8 inch kitchen... but still looking for the 6 inch versions...

I also have been thinking about the Bavarian thing due to last night's violin solo, and Part of my family is from Bavaria, I've been there several times as a kid, incredibly beautiful area, and went to Emil Smechenbecker's Cuckoo clock factory and the old man himself gave me a bird off the production line..... which last I knew, resided with my mother's Hummel collection...

The Cuckoo clock is an interesting cultural artifact... the originals were a very well designed device that when the movement lost lubrication through the oils on the pivots drying, the clock would stop running, and not wear out the pivot holes elongated... meaning when it stopped, you cleaned and oiled it, and off it went again, no harm done...
Most people pay little attention to cuckoo clocks, or the Motif'..... its a mountain cabin.. with a fairly steep roof, and a bench to sit on in the sun, and a hunting bag, powder horn, and black powder rifle, and occasionally a brace of birds or a rabbit for the pot in the fireplace...
In other words it portrayed a decent life... that if you live in the mountains, you dont need much of a house to have to heat... The black powder rifle is also interesting, because the Flintlock muzzle loading rifle is the only Fire Arm that you can make all the fuel yourself, which is covered best in the Foxfire books, number Five I think...

Meaning, of all the guns on the planet, a flintlock muzzle loader is the one most likely to continue working after the collapse.... there will be plenty of lead from old car batteries and wheel weights, and Sulfer can be bought by the hundred pounds from chemical supply places...
and Potassium Nitrate made from leaching animal or human manures....

And charcoal is common in fire places and can also be easily made.......

Black powder was a hobby of mine for many years, and if I can I will get back into it...

By the way... the hunting cabin the cuckoo clock portrays, in real life was built with very few tools... a saw, an axe, and maybe an adze... I'd want a decent ¾ inch wood chisel too...

Most guys these days use mostly a chain saw...

But the thing to consider, is that a single room cabin, and a flintlock rifle are representative of a decent life... just a few tools and you have a garden out back, a wood shed, a small barn, with a stall for the pony and a place to store loose hay in the loft... also grains in barrels to keep rats out... all that I am talking about here would take maybe 6 normal house payments to the banker to do....

And I dont expect zoning laws to hold up with the number of homeless.... very soon if you are living on cheap empty land far from the urban centers, in a small cabin, off the road and back in the brush, no one will bother you except homeland security thinking to rob your garden and cellar... and take your gun away you terrible terrorist!

(I think those people need mental help...)

Not the guy in the cabin, those office workers with a skewed and unworkable concept of reality... They dont seem to have a clue what normal is.... anybody who isn't a suck-up living in a rented apartment or payment house, working in an office, buying chemical food, etc. is somehow threatening, to the poor high salaried schizophrenic paranoids...

I guess growing a garden is some how subversive?


Well more and more people are doing it, and the same folks are buying guns and ammo too, to protect it from Raccoons, Crows, Deer, and Drones with badges, pieces of paper, and assault rifles and body armor...

Those are the worst Varmints for your garden to be infested with, it was bad enough when they specialized in trashing Marijuana growers, and soon to be competing with the Raccoons for your corn.... much better to snipe them at the city limits sign...

Which will begin shortly after they begin Taxing Ranches, Farms, and gardens for food....

Those people, homeland security, the military, the police, have some funny ideas how to treat people... not nice...

Real control freaks... They have serious mental issues... and need help, but arent getting it..
They are delusional... thinking they make a better world... but I suspect murder, robbery, rape, etc. were statistically less likely back when people thought it was right and natural to be responsible for their own self defense, and when murderers, Thieves, and Rapists, had to worry about armed victims, and the girl's brothers and uncles.....

The Legal system and the Police are all just more of the big lie...

Homeland security is a further extrapolation of the delusion, and is a carbon copy of the Nazi homeland security concept... and you know where that went.... much better if they are going to put you in a work camp and kill you somehow horribly unpleasant, that you die fighting and take as many as possible with you... and so at least make a better world for the survivors...

If the Bible is to be believed, which I believe it is, understanding what genesis six and Ezekiel one signify, Then the Ranchers consider Greed, Corruption, and Environmental Destruction to be Capital offences... so maybe we can too?

I learned this week that my Realizations on Ezekiel One have been posted on my blog...
We'll see if anyone is reading? That one should spread like wild fire.... and be somewhat controversial... my apologies to the Rabid Christian Fanatic types, I tend to be more into the truth of the issue, not into the money... and once you realize what Genesis 6 and Ezekiel 1 mean, the Bible becomes suddenly a cognizant and very believable piece of literature...

Hey folks... the star of Bethlehem is a star ship....

And they said they'd be back to fry any of the instinctual killers, liars, and thieves, who survived whats arriving at gate one now.....

Best you take your own and your group's survival very seriously.... be ready for passover...

Thats what its all about guys, a survival test.... and Greedheads will be few among the survivors....

“Amass a fortune in gold and Jade, and an army cant protect it.”

And Greedheads that do survive, will be hunted down by the Destroyer Agents, read: Angels....

And Burned... likely lasered...

It all makes sense, and you wont go to hell for defending your garden... even if you have to kill to do it.... Am I promoting violence? No, I am promoting rational and legitimate self defense under your god given rights... Its the Greedheads and power trippers who are out of line, not common man with a hoe and seeds.....

i.e. Defending you garden, your livestock, your women, and your gold, silver etc. from Instinctual Killers, Liars, & Thieves, is not a sin... it is a necessary requirement for personal and group survival... And anybody who takes part in Homeland security raids deserves what they are going to eventually get...

Dont be part of that, or face the chances your arrogant and smug Jackal group, will eventually be taken out, for being the common Raiders and Murderers that they are....

No? then I suggest you read what Buckminster Fuller said about the origins of civilisation....
That it began with raiders selling a protection racket to agriculturalists...... government is an illegitimate protection racket and the reason they want to take away your assault rifle, is so you can do nothing about theirs, as the assault rifle makes the farmers more than a match for fat city dudes in camouflage.... with the modern technologies, computers for education, automatic arms for self defense, Etc. Government has no actual legitimate function.... Thats why John Lennon took a bullet in the chest.... they didn't appreciate his song “Imagine”... which points this out, that their system of Lies and Murder, and Thievery called; Government, has no reason to continue to exist... other than it being what they feed off of, like a flock of corpulent Vampires taking turns on your neck.....

If you dont have an assault rifle, or a riot gun, or other good weapons, and you have anything worth defending, you had best get one soon... very soon... My personal Favorite is the Ruger Mini-14 in stainless steel... but if all I could get was a Chinese blue steel AK-47, I would happily use one to defend my garden from pests... if they put a ban on assault weapons, dont worry, the local drug dealerships will begin importing them for you... but at a fat mark-up, So better to get a quality american made weapon now... really they are the best thing ever invented for the common garden variety of Jackals & Hyenas...


I have a suspicion that the end of civilisation will be a reversal of the beginnings of it...
And instead of the farmer giving up all or part of his crop to the Raiders, he will feed them lead instead....



Anyway, thats my bloggeroo for today, hope you enjoyed it, and learned something...




Sunday, April 19th 2009...

Good morning.... have been puttering this morning... dug out old fiddle, threw most of it away, kept a few good pieces...

Found my old GI mess kit, cover in bad shape, threw away cover, removed handle, cleaned it up... never liked the fry pan handle...

These days I always like making things simple...

Puttered with my new violin, dug out a harmonica and found the right hole for an E note, and wrote a note to myself, on the box, to tune the Fiddle to.....

Have also been grinding corn... would like to eat some time today....

I was looking for my Violin tuner... didn't find it....

Cleaned up the E tuning fork I have, and used some Ospho rust treatment on it, was wishing I could make a stainless steel one for my stargate trip...

Listening to radio Bulgaria, or radio Romania last night, and they were playing more Baroque Christian music and talking about Christian Archeology in their country, and of one site with four Martyrs in a mass grave... evidently the Romans got ahold of them, an the rest is history.... And I was thinking about how the Romans and the Jews were killing the early Christians... Why? Because they couldn't believe what they were saying, yet they refused to recant... a story about some guy the Jews had the Romans execute... and who came back to life and then got sucked up into the sky.... yea, not a very believable story.... unless you happen to grok Genesis 6, Ezekiel 1 etc. and realize we have some sky gods playing games with us....

So.... I think star gate thoughts....

The Bible makes perfect sense if you realize its Alien manipulation....

And I truly believe the stuff happened... and that the prophecy is fairly likely to come to pass.... Which isn't good.... would be much better if we cleaned up our acts....

So I clean up my stuff, and while doing it, think about getting my act together on other and all levels...

Spiritual? Thats the guy inside.... Material? Thats the shit I've collected....

Its like boot camp.... get my shit together or pay hell on the marching field....

What to take, and what to leave, or give away....

Trying to get as perfect a kit as I can... Trying to become a better boyscout....

So, I inadvertently fit the description of a “True Believer”.... I believe the story because its so obviously true... not a bit of blind faith necessary... Gee... hope most of the Hypocrites dont make it up the Ramp... Lousy company on a ship.... Good Christians? No problem.... as long as they are truly trying hard to be decent folks, I can do nothing but admire them...

They believe in something that is true....

Wheres the beef in that?

It may not be quite like they imagine it is.... but its still true....

Most of them will be looking to nail my hide to the barn door, if what I have figured out about Ezekiel goes mainstream....

Another thought I had this morning, is maybe to advise one more time that getting mobile is better than other options, like violence...

Why do you suppose your address is on your drivers license? And that they went to a coordinates system instead of the old rural route mailbox system? Well now that its all on computer etc. they know where to come to get your gun, gold, daughters, food etc.

Handy how that just happened....

But what if when they got there, you were long gone?

Left them some shit in cardboard boxes in the garage to pick through and steal....

You aren't going to need the rest of the shit if you are very very lucky...


What if you started getting your trip together now? And worked on it for years... however many we have left....

And instead of holing up in your house like some pack rat defending its clutch of trinkets,
you were fly fishing some mountain stream when homeland security came looking for what they could take and call it civic duty.....

The key to making that possible is in minimizing your baggage... I've kind of come to the conclusion that its a disfavor of sorts to give someone something....

At least it can be... “Here, have some more excess baggage!”

You know what would be good? To only give Christmas gifts that were items one would need as a nomadic/refugee/passover/stargate hopper....

Wonder how long before Madison Avenue figured it out, doing consumer studies on their great computer?

“Thats funny.... most of what people are buying all fits in a class of items...”

What kind of items?

Its all outdoor and survival gear, and subsistence gardening stuff...

How prevalent is the trend? Is it growing fast?

Yea.... if the curve holds up, thats all that will be selling in another year, maybe two....

Ponys are in this year!

Yea, people are buying them that dont even have places for them... others are opening up special pasture rentals....

Also pony carts are booming... as are sales of small Dexter cattle....

Sheep too! Going as pets.....

What the hell is going on? Its sounding like a colony migration forming, like something out of the bible.....

How are walking staffs doing?

Way hot?

I think we had better start running programs on Morning America, and Sixty Minutes about a conspiracy neurosis... and how UN-politically correct it is....



You get the vignette.....

Could do it stealth too... wouldn't have to actually tell everybody.... lets see, Junior gets a nice GI style liquid filled lensatic compass like dad's this year.... Sissy is getting that pony she's always wanted.... why has she always wanted just the right thing? And big brother he's getting a nice Solingen hunting knife.... Mom? She's getting a really nice set of Lodge cast iron cookware....

Dad? He's getting a new stainless rifle he's always wanted... Why do dads want the right things invariably?

Hey folks, we are genetically programmed to know the right stuff... its the salesmen who have us sidetracked....

Focus on the nomadic/neoindigenous gear from now on... birthdays, especially Christmas... its the politically really correct thing to do... JC knew they were going to kill him in an excruciating manner... “Cruz or cross, the root word in excruciating?”

And he went through with it soas to leave us an indelible message to come down through time to us, to get our shit together during the end times so as to survive them and be around and healthy for his return with the sky gods.....

So I do think its very politically correct to use Christmas to give people what they will actually need....

True Gifts.....

How many shopping days left until Christmas?

Start buying now, watch the economist scratch their heads...

“Everyone is buying stuff...”

But its strange stuff.....

Anyway, a really good book to read about Star Colonizing, is Heinlein's Tunnel in the Sky....

Well, I need to grind some corn so I can eat today....

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009...

AFTERNOON, cloudy, so cant babel long..

Just got soup on, yucca, and breadfruit, sent breadfruit, and a pineapple home w/my worker..

Thinking this afternoon of my grand father's gates...

He lived a good portion of his life in Bremerton Washington, I have a lot of my family in Seattle and the Pacific north west..

MY grandfather built a small house out of what started to be his garage on Wilmont street, above the Cemeterys, near Kitsap lake... He had a low chain link fence around his yard, and a nice front yard with grass he spent a lot of time taking care of... in the back yard was a nice garden area, with a grape arbor in the center area, and a garden that produced enough stuff for my Grandmother to can and put by for the rainy winters....

And my grandfather had three gates, one on the drive way, one on the walk in from
Wilmont street, and another directly aft... connecting to a neighbor's back yard....

he had three neighbors touching on property lines, and had good relationships with all three of the families..... my grand father was a good person, nary a bad bone in his body, and was liked by all, even my grandmother......

And why the back gate? Just to one neighbor? Well because that guy, an older man, and my grandfahter shared from their gardens with each other... When one had too many Zucchinis, the other had Zucchinis..... When one had corn on the cob, if the other was short, he wasn't for long...

And so there is a lesson in the story... one only builds gates with the best of neighbors, and you can tell those by their ability to share.....

What more can I say? Especially with whats coming? All the people mentioned lived during the great depression....

If you want gates to your fellow humans.... you must share well....

Thats where I ate my first Zucchini by the way, my grandfather ate them battered slices,with egg and cornmeal, then cheese melted on the first side to fry and tomato & hot sauce....

Those are good!



Saturday, April 25th, 2009....

Morning... did some digging in the garden area, removing rocks, got a couple big wheelbarrows full.... double digging an area about 8 ft on a side....

But I got corn planted there, second bed in..... going to try to get out in to the garden regularly again, reacclimatize to manual labor.... I figure about 6 months to have it all up and running.....

The rocks will be the worst part.... but they are a resource, and The exercise wont kill us......



I heard Hillary was mouthing off about Pakistan... you'd think she was going to get to personally castrate half a billion Muslim men... I got a sneaking suspicion before this is all over one of them will own her....

Basically the status quo wants to start world war three, make scads of money, raise taxes, increase control, and off a bunch of Muslims because they are over breeding, and not going along with the politically correct shit....

Who's Jimmy the Greek betting on? One large mouthed woman, or half a billion men?

“When the enemy is underestimated, the underdog will win.” (Tao Te Ching)

Flapping face means she doesn't take them seriously....

It aint her country...
It aint her culture....

And its none of her fucking business what those people do and dont do....

its their business....

Maybe after the war, if she survives, the Muslims can use her for a lottery prize?

Basically what is going to happen if they start in on Pakistan, is nukes will be passed out like candy.....

To who ever wants one, and can think of a means of delivery... the reason those people are fighting is they are tired of being used and having puppet governments, and their resources stolen... more of the same isn't going to fix anything....

Wars are never about ideology, they are invariably about land area, resources, and slaves....

i.e. Control......

Same thing laws are about.... laws only protect the status quo... Criminals dont obey laws, only Mutton Heads obey laws... The Rich dont have to obey them...

Have you ever noticed how many issues in life are about control.....

Just about all of them....

Do you know what more and more laws mean? More and more control... in the US about a railroad car full of new laws every year.... Control Train! All Aboard!

Best you get out... She's gonna break up and disintegrate.....

Starting World war three is a really stupid thing to do.....

Think about it.... Where will you be when it hits?

Who will you lose?

Will you survive? In what kind of condition?

Who will really win?

Will it matter who won?

I dont think so....

Anyway, digging rocks in the garden will be really good practice physical labor for digging a foxhole... 6 months from now I should be able to dig the garden variety foxhole in one stint..... might save my worthless butt?

Guess I had better practice on my new fiddle for something to do while Babylon Burns Baby... Because the US may lose this war.... and end up glow in the dark, or Conquered...

If you Mutton Heads keep following the Hyenas and Jackals where do you suppose they will take you? Butcher's Field for a nice Picnic?

Anyway a pretty day here, got some corn planted, got subsistence soup made, get to spend the afternoon doing what ever I want... not a lot of control trips here on the farm.....



Thursday, April 30th 2009...

Morning, a bit overcast, was raining after dawn, a wet season day... now a bit brighter, and I felt like blogging..

Not much new to report, did hear some Chapman the other night, Bob figures there are going to be Armed Roving Bands looking for food etc. before the economic crash is over... he thinks two to three more years of worsening, followed by 5 to 7 years of hard times and maybe as much as twenty, and that the status quo wants to start world war three ASAP, now that they have tightened the screws down on the slaves, read; you.....

And considering this is one of the guys who predicted the economic problems some 5 years back, and got ignored, denied, badmouthed, etc., I think his opinion is better than any of the talking heads the status quo allows on the Boob Tube....

So folks, best you get your butts prepared! The show was a call in, and a woman asking him if moving out into the countryside was the right thing to do, he said definitely yes....

Bob also recommends arming up regularly....

All of these things are becoming mainstream, the people buying guns and ammo and running the factories dry... I think the Mutton heads are at least awake now.....

Obama is a great president in my opinion, but he's from inside the box... He isn't enough change, he could be, but all he has for advisors is old status quo types... And even a good King with bad advisors makes bad decisions....

Anyway, I fell into a wind fall a couple of days ago, sold my old canoe, got a decent price, and thinking I can look for the electric guitar.... and likely next week if the one I was looking at is still there, I will be packing it home on the bus...

Why mention it here? Well, for one to show you that even though I live very humble, I am still able to occasionally, fill in, things in my life... and that I have my preparedness trip together enough I can be buying musical instruments, which are the Jewels of country living.....

I dont much like Promoted music... 90% of whats on the radio is garbage....
I do like a lot of different types of music, and look forward to the day I can download online and pick out what I like, and not be inundated with shit...

I have been Practicing with the Violin I bought last month, very happy, playing this morning, and knowing I was getting past old blockages, and going on now with my advancement.....

And looking forward to having a full sized guitar, I have been learning on a half scale Guitarita, and also to having my first electric guitar... I have my fingers crossed that I will find one I like.... it will be awhile before I can afford a decent amplifier, but I have waited sometimes years to fill in on other projects, and so I will cobble up something that works to practice with, and be rocking before I know it...

A learning mind in a low stress environment is a healthy mind... and learning is an anti-mental-ageing technique....

The woman on the call in seemed focused on getting a place and getting a garden going... Yup! Thats the ticket! To survival..

Bob was warning about Heavily Armed Groups, same kind of thing I was talking about in this blog a couple years back... Best you be well armed too, and not give a shit about what the law says.... Laws are to protect the rich.., They do little service for common man....

The Democratic system has been corrupted by the special interests of the wealthy thieves... It is no longer a valid and legitimate political system, it is a corrupted and evil one....

From the looks of things, the Ranchers plan is going to be right on.... I dont understand it all, but I know it does say that the Greedheads will die as a single man, and I suspect that means all at once.... There are few thing that could kill widely separated Greedheads all at the same instant... nuclear war is one, mega-quake is another... disease or social disruption would be less uniform and not so timed...

Meaning the warnings are more about something like war or quake....

After the shit hits, its going to get really bad... “no flesh left alive” if it wasn't for the Ranchers coming back for the results of their big test.. What that means, is the afterlife is going to be a living one for actual survivors...

And I hope to come out the far side OK, thanks to knowledge and preparations,
and I hope to have my Fiddle and guitars etc.... maybe they will give me something to do to stave off the insanity after the crash? And maybe some music could help some others to want to continue to live and wait for the Rancher's return and not give up..... and die.....

All I know, is that it is a part of country living, like baseball games on radios on summer afternoons...

Every child should grow up listening to people in their group playing and singing together...

Music is primal and good...

And after things start getting back to the new normal, people will want to live again, and maybe it will be time for a renaissance of homegrown music...

Choose your instrument now, it will give you something to live out the far side for...

In fact, I am trying to encourage my group to all invest in instruments, as I think they will be a better investment than gold.... there are plenty of used instrument for sale now, and prices are low.. I personally think they would be a better investment than the average 401k....

An instrument that is taken care of does not lose value... they are highly prized by their owners and have an intrinsic value far beyond something like coins or bars of gold or silver...

In a world with little food, precious metals will become effectively worthless, but music may still get you into a door and a meal and a bed....




morning, Friday, first of May... 2009....

I was over in the garden area this morning, sending emails, and thinking of the problems I have with friends and family, and people in general, and I realized it was to displaced loyalty...

That the technocult's divide and conquer techniques along with money, have allowed people to separate and become successful as lone egocentric vanities....

In harsher times, one's loyalty was not to money, or nationalism, it was to one's friends and family... the small group versus the big group... this has been co-opted by the economic system, and the National system, and soon the global system, and friendship and family unity have and will suffer muchly...

But:

its a dichotomy pair universe....

and at the same time systems grow they rot from the inside... and the global system is rotting away before its even completely in place, and many of its primary proponents are also shameless and limitless thieves and murderers...

Not a good script to insure continuity....

And my point is: in whats coming, its going to be the small group that counts.... and loyalty to economic and larger social systems is misplaced, and very risky to the chances of one's survival or the survival of a smaller group... What the economic-nationalist system has done most, is trashed everything small, to create the Grand Illusion, read; Big Lie... read; Great Delusion...

I suggest you consider my point, and begin to re-graft onto your/a smaller group, and not be such an ego-moron, like the economic and social system allows you to be...

the system is both getting bigger and more complicated, and also getting more likely to collapse every single day.... if you hitch your wagon to a star, and it goes super nova, no more wagon....

I see the problem every where, people thinking only of themselves and what can they get with their beloved money.. I do it myself, but I am also astute enough to question the reality in the light of whats happening in modern times, and am trying to sound an intellectual warning to any who will listen, that you had better start thinking different suddenly before the collapse gets any more under way....

Its a lot like the music, instead of playing on back porches, friends and neighbors, we have countless individual egos playing the earbuds...

well, when the flow of digitrons stops, those poor fools will be down to humming alone, in the dark..

And when the system collapses, their non-co-operative money slinging morons counterparts will suddenly have a hungry look.....

'Going to go from “Fast Food” to fast fasting and weight loss diet plan, Dr. Suffering's own...

Attitude is everything, and when you think friends and family are a pleasant inconvenience, Just wait.... when you need them and the shit hits, guess where they wont be?

Wont be able to help themselves, or you for that matter because they are all caught up in the same vanity trap....

(My big lizard friend just came in to vacuum the house of larger insects..)

Hmm? Its his smaller brother, not the same lizard... funny these are a skittish type... word must be getting out, the grizzled giant is gentle....

Anyway, I think the collapse is happening now, and that things like economy will affect food supply and actually worsen our position already worsening due to climate change, and like a breeder reactor set on max output, Greed and Stupidity will accelerate it..

I live fairly low on the economic chain, currently about $150/month, and still manage to spend about half on preparedness and bettering my life.... There is an important lesson in that,
for those now living on ten to a hundred times that.. it ain't how many zeros in your number, its what you do with it...

Yesterday, I started re-reading the Hobbit again, Ah! What a joy to for a short time be in an adventure that hasn't a bit of the modern bagage in it... in our book Mordor seems to be winning, and the only invisibility ring, is the people unable to see any wisdom..

And me? These days waiting for payday, so I can go buy food, and hopefully pick up a decent Electric Guitar.... a vanity yes.... but I can see myself surviving until the ranchers arrive, and if I do, and make it up the ramp with my pack pony or pony cart, to go explore and colonize another planet, or if I just get to join their version of the Space Navy, I would want that quintessential Earthly Musical instrument to take with... So, we shall see if the one I was looking at is still there...


Back to the hobbit, for a minute, In the termite eaten, previously discarded by some organization paper back copy I have the luck to still retain, is a foreword,
written by one Peter S. Beagle, of Watsonville California, 14 July, 1973, its about 3 paragraphs, I will retype a couple of them for your enlightenment;

“I've never thought it an accident that Tolkien's works waited more than ten years to explode into popularity almost overnight.
The sixties were no fouler a decade than the fifties' foul harvest-but they were years when millions of people grew aware that the industrial society had become paradoxically unlivable, incalculably immoral, and ultimately deadly. In terms of passwords, the sixties were the time when the word progress lost its ancient holiness, and escape stopped being comically obscene.
The impulse is being called reactionary now, but lovers of Middle-Earth want to go there. I would myself like a shot.
For in the end it is Middle-Earth and its dwellers that we love, not Tolkien's considerable gifts in showing it to us. I said once that the world he charts was there long before him, and I still believe it. He is a great enough Magician to tap our most common nightmares, daydreams, and twilight fancies, but he never invented them either: He found them a place to live, a green alternative to each day's madness here in a poisoned world. We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers-thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams.”

My thoughts on the foreword, are that the lies have gotten better, but things have gotten much worse, and escape has become the wise man's prime objective, and yes we would rather live with Goblins, Orcs, Trolls, and Necromancers, Than Lawyers, Politicians, and Corporate Executives....

The Goblins, Orcs, etc. are free for the killing, while our version of the same plagues comprise the Kings and Captains of our times, and we the people are only slaves in deep caverns mining ore for their convenience....

But there will be a gate opening soon, call it “get even day”....

And another point I would like to make, is we can go to middle earth... as C.J. Cherryh pointed out in her book “Goblin Mirror”, its the dreams and stories what count when change comes... Middle Earth is not much different than Bavaria was in my youth, And we can go back there again.... How? Choose it as your Neoindigenous Dream, and gear yourselves up for it.... have what they would have, do what they would do, live as they would live...

If What I have Heard about Russia is true, the lights are still on in Moscow, but the rest of the Place is going back to Middle Earth fairly rapidly....

Humans generally lived well at subsistence levels for thousands of years... they can do so again..... So, get a good sword, and make a longbow, and plenty of arrows, you'll need them for all the Orcs, (From FEMA?) get your horse or pack-pony, your cart and axe.... dont forget a hoe or two, put on your woolens and travel cape, pull your hood up, and set out on your journey to your nearest Bavaria still in existence, And take up a life there... you will be glad you did, as you may survive because of it.....

And dont forget a musical instrument or two...

Morning, was working in the garden, getting a good “March” of raised beds built...
got rice, and corn coming up... using lime from the seep springs, compost and horse manure...
Showing my worker intensive gardening, American style....

Thinking this morning about the Class war arriving.... The H1N1 flu in Mexico stinks of a CIA type operation in my mind.. its too convenient, just the right place, just the right microbe to use for an excuse for more control trips, And I heard on short wave that the Homeland insecurity/paranoia department has made the necessary declaration, giving the President emergency powers... how convenient....

“Instinctual Killers, Liars, and Thieves”

I suspect its Kissinger's bragged about gun grab by September....

Going to set off a civil war with this one....

Was also pondering the mechanism that the Ranchers will use to round up the guilty.....
Realized it wont be difficult, just let the people point out the “Elite Collaborators”......

Collaborators with Tyrants generally have really bad luck when the tides turn on them....
Usually shot.... by firing squad... nice and formal.... The ultimate experience of the cream of the suck-ups....

Learned my best friend is getting “Laid Off” nothing unusual these days, except I might add its a management vendetta for being too honest at meetings....

No big deal, he was on his way south with Eve... they just are giving him an appropriately arrogant send off..

Management types busily “Improving Babylon”....

And thanks in part to them, he wont be there when the shit hits.... I've gotten him well prepared here, he has land, friends, connections, knows a million things most new arrivals haven't a clue about.. He'll be fishing, when those same backstabbing drones die horrible deaths in whats coming.... Bible talks about it.. basically I suspect the better grade of humans are all on their way out... pushed, pulled, or walking....

In his case pushed, but every little bit helps...

I think the Ranchers went through this all, and witnessed it repeated over and over on myriad planets... the script is in the Bible, which is becoming a very subversive document in Elite eyes....

We've come a long ways from Sunday School....

I think the Elite are going to have a bit of a problem soon... more than they imagined....

Wait and see....


Friday, 08 May, 2009...
Afternoon... Nice day so far, have been mostly working on emails.. and eating the occasional banana as they go ripe...

Listened to short wave a bit last night, caught a repeat of an Albert Addis commentary,
and he seems to think with debt in the US at about $250,000 per person, that it isn't going to get paid...
My guess is $250 g wont be much five years from now.. may not be worth anything in real terms....

My guess is ammo will be more valuable than gold, and used mostly to protect food supplies....

Everyone in my group still left in the US is stocking up on ammo...

Also have friends looking at letting their house go, likely soon move into a bus... the Guy got laid off some time back, is running out of unemployment, the wife about to get canned too...

Another friend said she was looking online at Ecuador... so she at least has the right Idea, get out....

My guess is they will end up here due to connections... i.e. me.. and another friend.. Basically I'll be running a camp grounds before this is all over..

People are starting to get the idea, its not going to stay as good as it is now for long...

Another friend is putting his house on the market, hoping to break even on it, did a whole new insides, floors, walls, and tile... trying to raise its actual value because he cant raise its price and needs the sale to happen to get out of the US... I suspect people like these are the lucky ones, enough guts to get out, and have the connection already here to make it do-able...

Others are looking for connections...

But its the guts that are most important... I came to Costa Rica with no connections, and I didn't speak Spanish... I now have both..

Anyway, about to rain, so I need to shut down.....
Afternoon, Sunday, May 10th, 2009 a.d.

Have been busy emailing this morning, teaching as always, also have been eating fruit, and plenty of it... ate chopped coconut, pineapple, and ripe bananas, two bowls... all home grown...

Well, my buddies in the US are all out shooting today... together... a couple generations of them... its not fourth of July, but its getting close... by the sounds of Short Wave radio...

They're doing good, new guns, reloading going on, working up some “Kissinger Specials”

“Oh? You want our guns? Sure, Lead First!”

Actually all of my group will be trying to get out, not in...

Was recommending today they play a GPS camping rally game, where every free moment they are out camping somewhere, fishing, hunting, hiking, exploring, any excuse... where they work their jobs, do their things, but all meet up on evenings, weekends etc. as a social and bugout exercise...

I also suggested starting up a small business doing Camouflage Paint jobs on busses, vans, campers etc. for all the people becoming DP's “displaced persons” from the Economic style class warfare....

Wont be long before people realize that if they dont have a job or a house, the best place to be, is playing hermit crabs out in the weeds somewhere...

Next Logic step would be a proper paint scheme for the game....

Hey folks, its been awhile, but way back in this blog I hammered on mobility.... any one getting it yet?

Any mobility is better than no mobility...

And the better your mobility, the better your chances...

And the more you practice camping up old abandoned dirt roads, the better you will be at it when you have to, instead of just are playing at it.....

Besides survivalism is a fun hobby, and the american/real man/woman thing to do....



Monday, May 18th 2009...
havent blogged for a few days, been busy...

Have a personals ad in craigs list, getting some nice replies, but all seem to think I have access to everything they do on internet, and are leaving me AIM, Screen names, etc. that I have no way of responding to from a third world country with blocked services due to the local monopoly trying to extract the last peso possible from what is a poor society struggling to connect with the world... so soon a note on the posting advising that I can only respond to regular Email addresses....

Also payday came so I was able to put some money with what I had selling my old canoe, and ran to my local department store equivalent, and the guitar I wanted was still there and I got it, and so have been busy with new toy syndrome....

I asked, and they do have a layaway plan, called “Apartados” for you Spanglish wannabees...
So if the amplifier I want is still there a few weeks from now it will go on layaway, and I should have in about 90 days.....

The guitar is a Chinese made “Alexes”, very nice, mahogany body, dyed very red, tiger stripe Maple top, walnut maybe fretboard, chrome hardware... very very pretty, was about the nicest they had in stock of twenty or thirty guitars.... there were lesser guitars for the same price or more, Latins dont pay much attention to details like the wood types etc., most of them dont have any history playing music etc. and in less developed countries, musical instruments have been made historically out of what ever was locally available in woods, so I was able to pick out a really classy guitar at a nice price, paid $250 for it....

Its an electric, must weigh 15 lbs or so, I dont have an amp yet, so stopped at a neighbor's house who has a kid learning electric guitar, who has an amp, and he looked at it, asked me where I got it, and told me he had been looking at the very same guitar in the same store.....

He was nice enough to get it tuned up for me, making it easier for me to keep it that way... I have a tuning fork etc. but having someone more advanced do the initial first tuning was a big help... good kid, He's also artistic in other mediums, I have friends in his family, they tend to keep to themselves in the village, wise here, because of so much dishonesty, and how many glad handers there are ready to screw you.... then he played “Dust in the Wind” (Kansas) one of my favorite songs, and I got to hear my guitar do something I hope to be able to do in the next year... I also got to try it amplified, a new experience for a man going on 53......

And was very happy with the tone etc...... and just sent my worker down the hill with several pineapples, one will be dropped off at his door.....

It aint much but I do try to pay my way through life however possible, and I appreciate the help, I've wanted an electric guitar for 40 years, and it never got to the top of the list until now......

So I got it home, have been learning an incredible amount rapidly, and getting over old stumbling blocks.... I play other instruments, and so know the learning processes, and know that this time I will succeed due to the ease of learning on electrics...

So my long held dream has come true, and as I said before, If ever I get to go up the ramp on a starship or stargate, I'd want an electric guitar strapped to my packsaddle, as there is no other musical instrument so human from this world.....

I suspect us wolfling humans from earth will someday be known in the Galaxy by our electric guitars... undoubtedly many similar paths taken on a million worlds, but chances are, that ours will be recognizable for what it is......

I have innate musical abilities, and a good singing voice, and know that within a year or two will be playing at a level good enough for public consumption... should be fun eh? Something to do on my mountain alone, that doesn't require any body but me, to make happen....
Also I dont watch TV, so have a lot of time to do other things... and have learned and done many hobbies in my life, since giving up the electronic opiate...

I also made an interesting culinary discovery this week, got a deal on some skinned dry corn, as used in latin culture for making one type of tortillas, and I tried cooking it whole, in my pressure cooker, with just enough water that when done it came out like rice... it was very good, and later today will be making more, with pineapples and coconut in it, and fresh ripe avocados on top.....

It seems to be a good food basic, and has me thinking it might be good cooked like Macaroni and cheese type dishes or done like potato salad, and I got a 25 lb sack, so will be trying all kinds of stuff with it this month and likely to buy more next... And I am starting to think about how to build a simple sanding drum type machine to make the same stuff out of homegrown corn, and could then use the bran in soups etc.

Also got batteries for the short wave radio, and so able to again follow the world's woes...

Listen, the economic system is only a problem if you believe in it.... and whats happening now is pretty much like a bunch of Grinches in Banker's duds, robbing your Christmas tree but good... if you quit believing in money, you start looking for ways not to need the toxic shit... and the more you recalibrate your noggin, and head off on vectors into self sufficiency, the less of it you use... I was able to buy the electric guitar, because I had the brains to plant pineapples, breadfruit, coconuts etc. and to learn to live on staples and not prepared foods...
I also eliminated my heating bill...

I heard last night on short wave that british retirees are abandoning ship in Spain, and heading back to England... the pound is as worthless as the dollar, and so their lives in the sun are coming to an end... well it wouldn't have to be that way if they had been food self sufficient, and had bought humble easy to maintain homes.... Expecting too much has been a form of entrapment for them and everybody else... expect greedy liars and politicians to rob you blind and starving every chance they get and you wont often be disappointed.....

So, while Rome burns, yours truly will be strumming an electric guitar, in the balmy tropics, waiting for the starship to arrive.... Am I crazy? You bet... but it seems to be working out for me, and no, I dont want my old job back....


Wednesday, May 20th, 2009.....

Afternoon, have the hulled corn in the pressure cooker with a ripe breadfruit added....

Have a few trons to redirect, so will blog some....

Worked in the garden this morning with my worker, its slowly getting nicer...

Also dug out stuff to start a strap making project for the new electric guitar.....

Also thinking about how this blog will soon be connected both ways to my website, and also my chat system.... we'll see how long I can handle chatting with my critics eh?

Hopefully it will be mostly friendly fire.....

Have been gaining ground on the guitar, like never before... so feeling good there....

Looking forward to the day I can play, sing, write, and dance like the Motown guys all at once.... yea, I love Motown music.... have asked my son to down load me some, but he cant seem to find any, I think they still keep him in the juvenile section of the library or something....

Anyway hopefully by the time this is posted, all my stuff will be linked together and I can also chat with any of my readership who cares enough to boot up on our chat system.... that should be fun, for me at least...

One of the grand curses in my life has been being right/correct about crazy shit a bit too often for most people's tastes... When I read Asimov's Empire/foundation series, I connected with the Mule on the ability to tweak emotionally with music... I have to sing, unfortunately for my victims, and I also connected with the Hero of his last book in the series, cant remember the character's name, but he got picked for a small job, i.e. Deciding the fate of the Galaxy, because he had the unusual ability to be correct more often then not by a wide margin.... Which is a horrible curse to have, ask me how I know? Am I conceited, ? probably but I wont admit it either here, or to myself, so its not a front burner issue...

And I was thinking today about the Christianity thing, and my very strong thesis that its alien intervention.... What if I'm right? And until then, what happens if the Christians get wind of my theory? I mean connected to me... could get some interesting emails from the glassy eyed fanatic types.....

But let me say this, the main guy, J.C. Did do an important job, and maybe just maybe saved humanity if we “REPENT!” or if not, no biggie, They'll just be along shortly to collect a few better grade survivors, burn any responsible for the mess; Greedheads, Control Trippers, and fix the planet back up somehow, using who? For hard labor?

And I ask myself who that will be? Well lets see... they burn the bad guys, likely run off a bunch of clones of the ones who tried to stop it, who does that leave to do all the dirty work?

If I were them I'd use those who did nothing.... that third of humanity who sits on the sidelines out of cowardice or laziness and let others decide issues with their blood, while they reap any benefits of the changes....

Seems fair... they didn't do anything, so are likely well rested up, and will make good members of the Radioactivity Cleanup Crews...

Another issue I would like to touch on, before this cloud headed my way has me shutting down, being solar powered and all, is the dolphins and whales.... if all the nukes get used, or if all those TOTALLY INSANE nuclear power plants do meltdowns in the mega quake, our dolphin cousins are going to be dead meat, thanks to being on the downhill/recieving end of our radioactive folly.... the bible even says that, that all the creatures with souls in the seas die in the ugly script version....

Well, I've personally met several hundred dolphin guys, gals, and kids, and never a one did me a disfavor... very nice folks... as long as you aren't a swallowing sized Tuna....

They even smell kinda nice, like a heavy sea hit, that you can smell sometimes for a mile or more down wind... its their breath, a good form of fish breath, comes out their spout, not their snout... where in all the literature on Dolphins have you read that eh? Maybe Cousteau mentioned it and I missed it.....

Anyway, if you cant get your personal shit together enough to help stop the Greedheads before they start world war three, or let climate change and greedy power plant shutdown policy trash our biosphere, will you at least say a prayer for the Dolphins to the great spirit...

Because if there are any good people/intelligent life on the planet, they are most likely them....

On your soul if it happens and you let it....

I would also like to mention to the Japanese, Eskimo peoples etc. that if the Ranchers considered the dolphins and whales to have souls, what do you suppose they will do with people that eat them regularly?



Tuesday, May 26th 2009.....

Morning, have some sun.. its been a few days since I blogged... nothing much has changed, not a lot of sunny weather for the panel, and have been busy learning the guitar some...

Heard some short wave, more of the same, Bad economic reports. Etc.... but what I know, is even my favorite experts aren't factoring in whats next... maybe this connected to that in the big lie as an economic system, but nobody is thinking or at least talking, much about what happens when the global warming curve runs over the economic charts like a Sherman tank over toilet paper....

If you are watching the economy too close, you are missing the ecology too far........

These days I'm feeling pretty good, still have all the same problems, and no new ones, so I'm thankful....

Have my border cross coming up, hopefully will be able to put the guitar amplifier on layaway, if its still there.... crossing fingers and all that.....

That and the costs of hotel, food, and my fone bill, will eat me up for another month of my life.. likely pick up one small trinket, in place of my usual several materialism kisses.. but I will consider myself very lucky if the amp I want is still there, and I can get it headed my direction..... I have been finding the new guitar to be my main pleasure these days.... haven't touched the old half scale acoustic Guitarita for a couple of weeks, picked it up last night and it felt like a stone age Ukelali.....

Looking forward to having the amp to plug in.... which goes against all of my usual
self-parameters, I'm generally an avoider of plugs and pay the bill routines...

Having all my usual problems with people.... no change there.... Just makes me wish for a star gate ramp, and a new planet where humanity has never bothered....
I kind of envision the ranchers showing up after the big survival test, and me being there, bags packed, kit in order, step up to the “Eye of the needle”/Quarterdeck, salute kinda off hand what ever life form has the gangway watch, request permission to come aboard, ask directions to the recruitment/colonization office, get a bunk and a locker for my shit, pull out my multimeter, and take a reading on the power outlets or nearest equivalents, and see what kind of voltage they have going... Twiddle with my pre-built adapter, run some tests, get the reading I want, and be ready to go with all my electric junk...

Unpack my baggage... hang a few fotos, be ready for work in the morning?

Who knows? Might not be quite that easy... from the looks of things we are definitely headed for the big test.. and I expect it to trash humanity so bad, that if I survive it will be a minor miracle...

And it may be more like getting rescued by helicopter from what ever form of “high ground” one happens to have survived on....

From the looks of things its going to kind of all hit sequentially... one thing after another, and the current economic boo-boo/great train robbery is just the beginning.....

So I'm trying to keep my materialism down as much as possible, doing OK, the electric guitar is a stargate item in my opinion... Gypsys often have musical instruments.....

The rest? Just some baggage, mostly survival stuff... I would imagine in the next 5 years I will give away a lot of stuff... Or have to leave it behind....

I dont own that much anymore, would all fit on an american sized pickup truck....

I hope to drop that amount by at least three quarters, and also do a little filling in...

Did manage to get a new pocket knife the other day... most of my pocket knives were
multi-tool types, which generally are good widgets, but not what you want for regular use...
I got a little two and a half inch drop point, stainless for about $6, made in China of course,
blade is good and hard, all stainless with hardwood inserts.... incredible deal... The store had a larger pocket knife too, and its on my to get list if I can after all the expenses of border cross, and hopefully getting the amplifier on layaway....

I gnaw at goals.... and do really well on very very little...

And after much analysis and introspection, problems come from other humans, the fix is on the inside of yourself....

Wanting less helps... following my neoindigenous guidelines has been a real help... luckiest day of my life was when I ran into the used copy of the Tao in a book store....

before then I took everything I could get in materialism and added it to the pile....

Now I try to subtract from the pile when I can, and add very little...

Well, my best friend got his house on the market, said Eugene housing market is about 20% of what it was.... he's been working like a dog for months, fixing it up, to make a sale more likely.... I'm crossing my fingers... looking forward to being able to go deep sea fishing, and see how my dolphin friends are doing these days.... will be nice to have the sailboat down here....

Anyway, clouding up, so I need to shut down.... rainy season you know...... I like having some battery for lighting when I wake up early in the mornings.....

Last word, the guitar has been really nice, something to do, doesn't require anyone else to do anything for me....... and I do enjoy learning new things....



Thursday, May 28th, 2009....

Listened to Bob Chapman last night...

At His Best...

Warning that bond market is starting to collapse, and the shit is coming....

I spent last night and this morning doing priority emails to key people in my group, as when the bond market goes, the status quo's only option, is martial law and door to door “Trigger Treat Taxation”, and the people's only option is to start sniping them when they stick their heads out of their compounds and not wait until they get to your door to fight them...

That way, they cant know who's doing it.... they just have to stay inside and not go out and play until its over...

The troops in the military likely have a handle on the reality.. they've been the grunts & screams, coming out of the various meat grinders...

I dont think the status quo will have them very much longer as tools.... do the right thing guys, go for the truthful side.... If I were in Iraq, Afghanistan, or anywhere else, and in the military I'd be thinking how to commandeer ships, airplanes and fuel, and start getting home however possible when the shit hits back home... The US government has abandoned troops in every war......

THE BOND MARKET

The bond market is the government line on credit spending.. and its failing, there are no reserves, and we're gonna need some smart guys with guts to get ahold of the grain elevators and keep them held, and out of government hands, or they will be sending it off to china while Americans starve....

Got an email about the ammo shortage, basically as I suspected, and a gun shop owner I knew personally 15 years ago said shortage was from people hoarding...

In my opinion thats very very good.... will make raiders of any type very short lived, and those with the brains to prepare will deservingly survive, and the mainstream morons can eat Lawyers and politicians for a few years...


Basically its down to a matter of months... and if you give up your gun, ammo, food etc. you and your family will die.... I suggest you quit paying payments and start using every cent to stock up on food, water, medicine, fertilizer, ammo, gardening tools, seeds, guns, optics, clothing, fuel, and books.....

AND get mobile.... get some tarp, get fuel enough to get out into the countryside and camp. And if you have to go any direction, let it be south.... after that let it be towards better fishing....

Because we are about to be where I started this blog, that swamp rats with a boat and a garden on a hump, and jug fishing and catching rain water, are going to have it a lot better off than anybody in the city....

This will likely empty the cities into the countryside before its through, I'd suggest rural people begin setting up their churches and school gyms as shelters for what happens when it hits... also start buying grain direct from farmers and storing it in the churches schools and in private homes/barns, and develop a community defense plan in case of raiders of any type.....

Country people are my people... my people are country people....

I know they will do the right things, because thats how they are...

Its going to have to be “Humanity with Teeth”.......

Anyway, its coming folks, and dont believe the liars on the boob tube saying the economy is about to get better... not gonna happen..... you'd be better off buying swamp land than that story.....

Another thing I'd like to say, is this blog has the seeds of the only ways out of these problems, contained within it and on my website... I dont think I've missed much...

Good Luck friends....




Sunday, May 31st, 2009...

Morning, Just finished a bowl of Guacamole, some fresh coconut, mangos next, breadnuts to clean and cook later, also got some starfruit on my morning food hike, had to leave food laying on the ground due to not needing it and not wanting to pack any more.... havent eaten any boughten food for days....


Looks like my Jungle Jim Retirement plan is working just fine... I should check the pineapples today too....

And this is only the beginning... we are still planting more, and on just avocados I have about 50 trees that should start producing in the next couple years, we are harvesting from three or four at the moment... and I have more breadnut trees soon to start producing...

Basically folks, you can buy yourselves some land, start planting food and fruit, and work your way out of the big lie... and if you live neoindigenous, no house taxes to pay...

Gee? Where did I go wrong?

Looks like I may be able to pick up the guitar amplifier if its still there in a week or so, a friend is going to help me, as a gift... good friend, we help each other however possible...

He's actually my first convert to neoindigenism..... he jabs the guys where he works, because they're looking at Vacuum Retirements, Cat Food sandwiches a definnite maybe, and he's telling them he's got a place in the tropics, getting his yacht finished, (Read; fishing boat) and that his plan is subsistence gardening and fishing retirement....


It isn't making him very popular with his co-workers who haven't the guts or imagination, to do any thing similar.... Their Wives wont let them, she's still plenty plump, Just hold down two jobs for me dear....

Anyway, looking forward to the amplifier, practicing on a dead electric guitar is low calorie....

But I've been sticking to it, learning more constantly, and I dont have anything better to do with my time, not holding down a job, watching TV, nor taking happy pills to be able to handle my worsening reality...

Yup! Terminal culture up there, starting to smell worse than the Denmark waterfront... Actually the Denmark waterfront smells fine, it was the Nazis who caused the odor problem that originated that saying, and most of them have set up shop in the US and Britain, And have been working towards their new world order control freak trips, and doing pretty good at it, robbing and killing and lying... Most of the Nazis aren't German... Never were, it was just a cover for more Illuminati games.... getting to be common knowledge these days....

Funny how the Council on foreign relations is not mentioned in the constitution as a government department... nor is homeland security.... nor is fiat currency... time to push the reset button...

I suspect after a few more inflationary hits to repair the big lie to the comfort of the status quo, that more and more people will be waking up to the smell of Napalm... thats your castles burning...

World Class Civil war, coming to a theater near you soon...

Prepare, Prepare, Prepare.....

And its all part of the script, as Jonny Cash sang: “Goin' by the Book.”

So these days, dont have much else to do, I grok the book, and the folks I call the Ranchers, like the guys on the thrones in Ezekiel's Areo Planes.... and I dont fall for those Harps in heaven stories, Would fill up a guys cabin on a space ship, imagine a hundred thousand Star Troopers playing harps? Well, IF I manage to survive and qualify, this one is going to be playing Electric Guitar, Violin, Harmonica, Flute, Tambours etc. I've been on ships before.... Didn't notice any of the guys with harps... but they weren't angels either...

Anyway, be good Boyscouts folks... its a simple formula that fixes everything that ails us...
get your own trip in order, quit feeding the bears, personally I see no reason at all I should pay taxes to the bastards... Bible says pay taxes to those to whom they are due...

That statement has a double meaning, if those collecting the money are using it for evil deeds, like wars in far places we have no righteous business in, they aren't due the taxes, now are they..... best you biblical scholar types pay a little better attention to the semantics, and the fact its all based on dichotomy pairs...

Anyway, I have to shut down, clouds on my solar panel.....

Get out of Babylon folks or eat plagues, wars, famines, radioactivity, pollution, and management's shit as a regular diet plan...


Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009.....

morning, and another nice one.... have been having a few related realizations;

That the technocult leverages us by our addictions, and not by our necessities....

Started thinking about it due to going to farm food and not buying the boughten stuff, a
spin-off of buying the electric guitar... now doing fine eating just farm food mostly, doing bowls of guacamole, eating fresh coconut, and cooking breadnuts for self and dog person....

So why did I continue buying food when I've had the coconuts all along? Some programming, that I was used to certain kinds of foods, like carbohydrates.... and laziness; that I was used to cooking pre-processed foods.....

The breadnuts take some getting, I have to pry my ass out of the shelter in the morning, and go do a food hike, then I have to clean them, i.e. Remove from the fruit/pulp.... which takes some time.....

then cooking them....

so it was a lot easier to cook boughten rice, corn, etc....

But, I have managed to displace the boughten food addiction, and now I am more than happy doing the breadnuts, coconuts, etc. because its gotten me the electric guitar and a bunch of other nifty materialism to do so...

And this month, going to get the amplifier if its still there, and so I have to continue eating the farm food, to be able to do so.... which isn't bad, as the breadnuts are organically grown, and I doubt the supermarket boughten rice was....

So basically my point is you can free yourselves by realizing that much of what you do are addictions displacing better habits, and if you reverse the trend, by going for better habits, the addictions turn into costly history.....

Now what good is the realization? Why I can now expand on it.... apply it all over my life..... get lots of freedom from the system... which may help me survive whats coming...

Another thought pattern I've been having recently is about the bible....
that our rancher buddies piloting Ezekiel's areo planes, planting babies in wombs, blasting Gay/S&M Cities into slag, etc. have the bible using the words God, and Our Father, and really its not a trinity, i.e. w/Holy Spirit....

Holy Spirit: holy means different, spirit means a mind to do something....

holy spirit in biblical sense seems to be Honesty... yea boy that is a really different spirit than what passes for normal these days...

And Our Father, I find if I replace those words with “Great Spirit” it works really well...

Now to point; that Jesus uses three, the final one being “My Father” who art in space...

They are not interchangeable...

although science being a form of questing the truth about reality, and the truth being a really different spirit, science is in fact at its root the study of what the great spirit seems to fuel...

Hmmm? Study the effects and not the actuary force?

Maybe the ranchers have gotten there on that one, and figured out how to study the very force itself.... Kinda like Dark energy, only real, not just an excuse for filler in a big bang theory that isn't working out too good on the chalk board... but being able to detect and measure what it is that makes the whole God dammit operate? Seems funny we have a force that activates everything everywhere but with all our ego and brains, we havent got a way to detect it yet other than our eyes, ears, and feelers.... yup! Feels real, but its probably a conspiracy theory because we havent figured out how to measure & quantify it....

Another statement of Jesus's is he came to fix what defect we have that keeps us separate from God.....

now if you plug “Great Spirit” into that slot, what he's saying is get right with nature... Absurd? Well not if you also think about the parable about the birds and animals not working and getting fed etc. basically he's telling us we need to get in harmony with nature...

And if you think about Adam and Eve, thrown out of the garden, why? Got out of sync with the nature of the place by doing NO-NO's and thinking it was OK....

I.E. Learning the difference between good and evil, by doing evil and calling it good, an art form still used to this day....

And my point is this, if you muddle your way around the archaic translations from an ancient now dead language or two, it becomes obvious Jesus didn't come here to forgive us for being assholes, so we could keep doing it, he came to point out that there was a better way....

Now throw in the statement about money being the root of all evil....

Hmmm? Is there a connection? You bet, its money we work for, and love of it that has us trashing nature, including the very biosphere we need to survive.....

And now my point, why would the ranchers want us to get right with nature?

Well, because its sanity......

And the only real way forward....

and if they are down on unfair money games, do you think its a good idea to keep up that addiction, or get it into balance somehow?

Anyway, chew on those thoughts for awhile, and then start to think how YOU can begin displacing addictions with good habits... its the light at the end of the tunnel....

Do you need a house and a job and a credit card? No, those are addictions...

you could get by on growing some simple food, fishing, living in a decent tent or other simple shelter, getting right with nature, instead of covering a planet with your house crap....

Best shed the VANITY, and turn towards the sanity....






afternoon.... Saturday, June 6th, 2009....
Was listening to short wave last night, a Christian Paranoia program, they have good reasons to fear, but the program took off on a tangent about Trans-humanism....
Which they also feared, and roundly bad mouthed.... well if what I suspect about the Bible is true, their sky god/s are pretty much Trans-humans..... i.e. Self altered, genetically enhanced, immortals etc.

So they were kind of unwittingly bad mouthing the very things they believe in.....


I guess they haven't made the connections yet between the heavens, and the clear blue sky, or the black of outer space punctuated by stars and asterisks.... yea, asteroids are risky if you run into one... so if its on your course, its more of a risk than a roid.....

Anyway, I think I have a grok on basically what its all about, the big experiment, and we are but the lab rats.... nor do the ranchers seem to have any compunctions against killing us in mass to further their own aims... whether it Sodom, and fire from space, or the UFO report in Ancient India where the UFO's fried humans and Elephants, they seem to be more than willing to have us do the dying....

And looking around me, and into my magic mirror, I do see where we really aren't all that worth saving.... no doubt they consider most of us to be culls, and is probably why the gene for longevity has the little inserted defect, i.e. We aren't keepers....

I've thought about trans-humanism on my own, I see it like all other possibilities; its inert technologies, and what you do with it decides its eventually outcomes (plural, as all outcomes are by nature dichotomy pairs).....

They also dont seem to mind either letting us kill ourselves off in great numbers, or maybe even insuring that that take place, and I wonder why they dont just fix the defects, and end the suffering? Again its my feelings trying to grok their motives... are they trying to prove a point to us? What happens if you let ego reign sovereign?
I dont know, all I know is I am sick of the sickness, and wish people could be better and not have to learn the hard way all the time at all our own expense.....


Personally I wish they'd show up, set up a liaison, maybe do some teaching, get people fixed, stop the wars and sufferings, repair the damage to the planet, and take the happy campers on to other worlds and other suns.....

But then what do I know? I'm just a lab rat quality human, and not a trans-human God....


Only thing I can imagine, is they want us to know up close and personal what happens if you let it....

Nothing like going through hell to become permanently convinced what a good idea isn't....

But I do wish there were an easier way... one with out all the dead kids and parents...

I guess there is, to get our own shit in order, but that doesn't seem to be happening, looks like business as usual to me, Greed City; No Limits...

Anyway, wonder what the Christians will think when a bunch of Trans-humans show up to pick up the pieces? Likely will be a rude awakening for any who survive the test....

Well clouding up, just wanted to discuss the topic... and also mention that if one reads about Jesus, it becomes obvious he had a lot of uncanny abilities, could read people just looking at them etc..... if our trans humans have these types of abilities, most of humanity is in deep
du-du....... we aren't all that great, not anything like we like to imagine ourselves to be... I hope the Trans-humans are better, would be nice to know the possibility really existed.... even if we seem to be incapable of getting there ourself....


Ok, a few days later, in Paso Canoas, going to send this file out....
a piece of local information, the panama side has quit bothering people for the return bus ticket, but get this, now the Costa rican side has begun bothering people again.. even those with farms and homes here... and the Tracopa company owners are certainly multi millionaires by now and they are making hundreds of people a day buy bus tickets they dont need and cant use on an ego/power trip....

anyway gotta go!
