9/11 Coincidences (Part Ten - 2nd Cut)

The Real Story!

" LET'S GET EDUCATED "

All in the fray should maybe start here first.....http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/municipal-wifi.htm .....Then get back into the fight! The more I read the better I like it!

" WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE COME TO TOWN? "

I'm floating three hundred feet above the center of town in my time capsule phone booth, slowly rotating, observing what is transpiring with the town below. The time is around the nineteen twenties, thirties, forties.....The Town is a vibrant bustling metropolis full of smoke stacks belching coal smoke and steam high into the air. Church Steeples, lots of automobiles, and most noticeable of all is the amount of people on Main Street and it's side streets. All busy moving to and fro here and there, out of this store and into that one, scurrying around like so many ants building an ant hill. Some just standing in small groups making small talk, some standing around the depot waiting for the train to arrive, with the baggage handlers preparing the wooden wheeled carts for the next load of merchandise that will be arriving soon and those loaded with our manufactured products destined to parts unknown. Looks like a busy time for the town, a place of destination, not departure.

I push the control stick forward, into the sixties. As I look up from the control stick and gaze out onto the town, I'm astonished to see a virtual desert, where just moments ago was a thriving metropolis, now stands a barren wasteland of wind blown dirt. Gone are the buildings, and the smoke stacks that remain are all but silent. The most disheartening view of all is the lack of people to be seen. Was there a war? Were we destroyed by some magic bomb? I can see that most of the store fronts are empty and the cars have all but disappeared. Oh waite...J.J. Newberry is still there, so all wasn't lost. I have to press further into the future.

Nineteen Seventy, Eighty, Ninety.... What has happened? Still more devastation. More empty store fronts, even less people on what is left to Main Street. Even the benches that use to dot the landscape are gone. I must continue on.

Surely the new millennium will bring changes! Into the future I go, slowly the years slide by but still no changes...holdit...what is that I see? A rock hanging on a string? Trees growing upside down? Cubes of crushed beer cans stacked together? What has happened? Was there some sort of stupid gas disseminated by the bomb that destroyed the Town, to work its sinister deed on the brains of future generations? Surely everyone has gone mad? What's this?... There are tables and chairs on the sidewalk with umbrellas. Looks like the BENCHES have been replaced by these. A sign of progress. Now the old and or the disabled or just anyone will have a place to sit and eat their "Jacks Hotdogs" shaded from the sun. A step in the right direction. Someone must be thinking of the Town Folk.

I proceeded into the near future and didn't find any real positive changes. Mostly less housing and local people and more strangers and passing through folks. I guess the Town has now become a place of DEPARTURE... not a DESTINATION !

So..... If you could change the trend, what would you do and who would you encourage to locate here and put us on the road "Back To The Future"?

" WHAT AM I, AND WHO SHOULD I VOTE FOR? "

OK People, Today I am asking for your help. In this season of political wrangling for all sorts of jobs in the Government, I have become very confused. In elections past (before Nixon) it was simple and straight forward.....if you were for the workin stiff, you voted Democrat..... if you were a business man, you voted Republican. Their platforms were simple and straight forward. Today however things ain't so simple. The Democrats have shown themselves to be Nannycrats to the extreme and also seem to be leaning away from their core beliefs. (Clinton NAFTA) The Republicans on the other hand seem to have takin the direction of complete dismantling of the Government for the sole benefit of the very rich and placed themselves on a pedestal with lies and make believe as their foundation.
SO...Help me out here. Who should I throw away my vote on?

" TO BE OR NOT TO BE - A CITIZEN? "

To start out your week and get those thinkin juices a workin, I thought a question that has been bothering me ever since this ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION ISSUE has come to light. The main thrust of the issue is "Why should someone become a citizen JUST because they are Born here?" I was surprised to learn that not only does this apply to the fifty states but also to our territories as well. What is the rational behind "ius soli?" Shouldn't Citizenship be based on "ius Sanguinis" instead? (I learnt me a some new words today) Anyway, I don't think it is right because it only encourages ILLEGAL Immigration for the sake of circumventing the law. I am not talking those born of legal immigrants wanting to become citizens and going through the process of naturalizing. What's your opinion? It's Your Dime?

" COMPACT WITH AMERICA "

So much news today that it is boggling the mind. Unfortunately, as per usual, it is all bad! So today I have decided to start a Revolution! That is my right under the all the articles and doctrines we live under. I am not going to recognize the "CONTRACT WITH (corporate) AMERICA" anymore and consider that document belonging to a terrorist organisation. Their sole purpose is to enslave the working people of this country for their personal monetary gain. I am replacing it with my "COMPACT WITH AMERICA". Under my new America the "PEOPLE" are the prime purpose of the Government. You may even call it a bit radical and even a bit socialistic, but I believe the government should be an instrument by which the masses benefit not just a few. So I have loaded my "BIC auto ink feed - 1984 model" and started to go hunting those politicos who would enslave us to the corporations. Wish me luck and you are welcome to join me.

On a happier note I have also found numerous places for us to site our new windmill farm, that will take the Town of North Adams off the grid and even make a few bucks extra for some nice municipal projects down town for the enjoyment of the town folk. Which mountain would you prefer?

" AS THE WORLD TURNES "

No this isn't about the TV Soap Opera ,that has been on TV from before there was TV. It is just some reflections of our state of affairs in which we find ourselves. Lets see if I can keep it civilized and not laps into anger and spewage of the irate kind.
The general consensus is that our System is busted all to hell.....I think we all have to agree on that point. The Democrats want to have a sort of Socialistic, "Just give us your money and do what we tell you" - " You don't need Guns, knives, or sharp spoons" - "Trust us, we know what is good for you", System. The Republicans want to let Corporations run our Government, without the hindrance of laws or rules or any type of oversight, "Do what we tell you or we will fire you and send you to a third world country for reindoctorinaction". Remember the famous - " Contract With (corporate) America"?
Doesn't it bother anyone that all the things that made us a great place to live are now gone? Outsourced and moved away, with the help of your servants to boot!
So I have decided to sit back (I seem to have no other choice) and watch as history repeats itself. Just sit here and watch the whole thing implode in on itself. But mark my words, the PEOPLE will stand only so much and I will guarantee there is going to be a another revolution. An uprising that will finish off whatever vestiges are left of a coherent society. We will be thrown back into a truly third world country.
What do you think? "It's Your Dime"

" JUST MORE OF THE SAME OLD SHIT "

Well... good mornin readers. Nothing radical to jaw on today. Just more of the same old bullshit coming out of the State House in Boston and the White House in Washington. Blah, blah, blah everything is just fine and hunky dory...buy more insurance...let the market be the guide...government is here for your protection, but it is too big and needs to be eliminated...it is here to protect the bottom line of big business, and needs to be expanded...Blah, blah, blah...Sorry I can't hear what you are saying, I have come down with hearasidus just after I got elected...Everything is just great in IRAQ, we are winning the war...Blah, blah, blah...Buy more insurance...Buy more insurance...Buy more insurance...Blah, blah, blah...And on and on and on it goes..........I have only this to say...2012...then... poof !

"JUST ME AND MY DOG"

What seems at this point to be eons ago, the GREAT DECIDER - KING GEORGE, stated that even if only him and his dog that were left supporting the IRAQ WAR that he would still surge onward, sending our sons and daughters to die in a needless war. Well Guess what?.....
At this point in time it doesn't take a mental giant to see what HIS ROYAL HINDASS is trying to do. If he can keep the war going long enough so that He and his Henchmen have time to slither outta office, then it will be (He Thinks) not his responsibility. Ergo: I was winning so history will give me the accolades I deserve and My place on a pedestal next to the other great men.....Ronnie The Rat, Tricky Dicky, Abe, and Jesus Christ! And whoever comes after me will be blamed for the WAR!
A question?.....If Georgie came to your place looking for employment and he handed you his resume...( which does not include one single accomplishment on his own. But rather a patchwork of failed ventures and decisions, that without being pulled from the fire by Good Old Dad or an Oil Barron from Saudi Arabia, would you hire HIM?
It is time to IMPEACH GEORGE BUSH and put his cronies in jail, where they belong! The man is nothing more than a spoiled rich frat brat that thinks he is not part of the society but above it and it's laws, a society unto himself answerable to no one....where did we see this before? When are you stupid people going to get smart?

" BE AFRAID ---- BE VERY AFRAID "

Ahh...it's Monday and I have my spankin new key board now in service. The old one had (S) key problems and finally just stopped workin all together, the "S" key that is. The new one is just about the same but different enough that my fingers sometimes trip over themselves because of the small but subtle differences. Like buying a new car, you know how to drive but the new one is just a little bit different, Hell you know what I mean?
I was reading an article this morning about the new guy in charge of "THE NIXON VIEW OF HISTORY MEMORIAL" (the Nixon library). Seems that he is going for the truthful look, instead of the fantasy land look, of the past. He is redoing the special room dedicated to Watergate and Nixon's fantasy view of why he was thrown from office. WOW... truthfulness from a politicos Monument to himself.....how refreshing! But don't hold your breath my friends we have yet to see the "ultimate Fairy Tale Monument To Ones Ego and Make Believe View of his Legacy and History" "THE KING GEORGE Amusement and HALL OF LIES LIBRARY" Yup, designed and edited by no other than the great fornicator HIMSELF! I would caution all you history buffs not to go there looking for truthful research material on the Bush years, as they all found out in the NIXON MONUMENT. Seems they forget to include that in their exhibits?
So my friends Be Afraid Be Very Afraid that another venue that we us to use for research into Truthful History has gone the way of "TRUTH, JUSTICE, And The AMERICAN WAY"

" LAND OF THE FREE "

Can anyone please tell me where George W. thinks he gets his power to do anything he pleases? Are there no more checks and balances within our system? Does he indeed have total authority over everything and everybody? Please help me out here, I think I missed that class in school? Does Congress have the authority, or better stated, the will, to challenge and alter what GW has done? Can they un-pardon a bad pardon?
After GW slithers outta office with the UNTOUCHABLES, can we ever go back to the old way we were governed?

" CAN ANYONE SAY .....PAR-DONE! "

Gimme a break!................The Republicans seem to be well versed in doing the Crime, but can't seem to ever do the Time!..... And we never seem to learn!

" AFTER THE FACT "

I have only a few question to ask .

Were any of those people illegal immigrants?
If so were they arrested?
What are lawbreakers doing sitting in our halls of justice free as a bird without a cop in site?

" 2012 "

This picture has nothing to do with 2012 but is put here because you can't add pictures to the comments section in blogger. Why not?...one may ask? It is intended for my good buddy Dwpittelli over at http://woodedpaths.blogspot.com/

OK, back to the blog......

Today I am feeling a little physiological so let us jump right in!

What is the reason that we have Government or Governing Bodies in the first place? Why do we need them? What purpose do they serve? Why is it that when you finally get a system that works, you have to insert Politicians to gum up the works?

Just think what could be accomplished without the interference of Politicos. If those with the power to make a positive difference did so. Protecting us from the bad, the greedy, and the selfish elements, that are ever present and are constantly looking for an opening to stick it to us. Well welcome to AMERICA! Yup, I can't see our existence going beyond 2012. What do you think?

" I'm STILL AMAZED "

I have had the displeasure the last couple of weeks to watch the never ending soap opera that has been unfolding in the Senate. I was very pleased to see the outcome of the latest Bush/Big Business initiative, to get rid of Unions and the American worker. Seems those that are trying to keep their cushy jobs are finally realizing that the voting American public doesn't want amnesty for illegal immigrants. Too bad Ted Kennedy doesn't get it.....Good-by Ted, it was not nice knowing you!

On another subject, yesterday they were having Senate hearing on the EPA. What an arrogant shit head this man is. Mr. Steve Johnson - Administrator of the EPA. He has his head so far up Bushes ass, you could tell by the brownish tone to his skin.

This man is suppose to be looking out for the public good of this nation, not the bottom line of Big Business. How do we stop people like this from getting into their positions and once there and we find they are not looking out for our intrest, how do we get rid of them? The System is severely busted and needs fixin real soon.

" GENEALOGY and us "

My passion......why?..... Why do I find it more enjoyable to be in an old cemetery reading gravestone inscriptions, than going to a party? (don't answer that) I sit for hours at the computer, lashed by some invisible chain, looking at old maps and old photographs and old buildings and bygone years of North Adams and the Eastern Provinces of Canada? Drawn back to a previous reality, viewing a time long gone, as through an old Eastman Kodak Cellulose Movie.

In 1891 the TREMBLAY clan arrived from Kamouraska, Quebec. ( Ya... so what? Who cares?.....Big Deal! ).......... Ever wonder what it was like in North Adams or your home town when your people arrived?

I have tons and tons of French Canadian stuff, if anyone is interested in their Canadian roots. Would be glad to share what I have, if I have it! The North Adams Library will get my boxes of research after I move on. I'll let their skilled hands sort it all out. I'm not much on organization, more of a collector of information, seems I spend so much time looking, I don't stop and smell the roses.

Anyway.....just wanted to share my passion with you and see if there was anyone else living in the past.

" A WHAT? "

OK... someone point me to just where in our Constitution it provides for a "CZAR" of anything? I thought we already had a "Decider In Chief", Joint Chief of Staff, and an sundry of Generals and War Advisers? Is Bush so desperate now that he is creating a fall guy position, someone to take the bullet for him, like he has thrown our sons and daughters out in front of him and his oil buddies to take the literal bullet to protect the Military Industrial Complex and their profits! So he can blame someone else for his stupidity? Will Congress have to OK the position, or are they just going to roll over once again and do the bidding of a mad man? What the hell is going on with our government? I think that there are Constitutional issues here that the Supreme Court has to look at? Excuse me..." WHAT CONSTITUTION? " The mad man needs to be impeached and thrown in jail along with his whole gang of nitwits... and soon!

" AS THE SCREW TURNS "

And you people wonder why I think that politicians are such dirt bags. Look at what is happening now to the Repukes! Their new twist or flip-flop is to now try and blame the Iraq Gov. for all the problems in Iraq and the reason that things ain't going so good. It ain't the Decider Guy's fault or the stick with him at all cost of our youths lives, Repukes, it's that dam Iraq Governments fault! What a bunch of hog-snot flip flopping forked tonged bull shit. I have yet to meet a politician that wouldn't sell his Mother to a slave trader if he thought it could get him elected. Remember it's all about "ME", they don't give two shits about you and your sons or daughters and never will...wake up people!
So lets all watch as this soap opera unfolds and the Repukes try to save the Decider Guys factious legacy and at the same time get elected. It should be quite a show!

" YOUR TURN "

OK...now being that I am "The Peoples Candidate" it wouldn't be very peopleish if I didn't ask you what I can do for YOU! What do you want your Top Public Servant to accomplish on your behalf?

" ALSO "

11. I would require All our kids have to serve a mandatory two (2) years military service upon graduation from High School and before College. No deferments except for life threatening medical reasons. A special unit will be set up to accommodate those physically handicapped.

12. When "Loopholes" are found in laws they will be automatically closed and the term, "to also include or to exclude", written in the law according to the intent of the law.

13. I will institute "TERM LIMITS" at every level of government.

14. Politicians and Judges pay will be a set at a percentage of the minimum wage. If it is good enough for the lower end of the work force then proportionally it is good enough for those responsible for that amount.

15. More to come!
