9/11

Read these six short paragraphs please: http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/332051 Please read the article before you continue. I haven't watched the video yet. I tried to watch it, but it was only offered free until Sept 4th so it looks like I was a few days late. But I will try more in a little bit to find it and watch it. I hope everyone else can do the same. Just a few points I would like to make concerning the article linked to above. Please indulge me. 1.) "The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the government agency charged with the investigation, did not provide any data -- no measurements or estimates -- of the mass or energy that would be required to bring down the buildings in about ten seconds. Normally a scientific report would present all the data that is used to construct a theory. The omission of data is a red flag to anyone familiar with scientific procedure." My point --- no kidding no data, who would have thunk it? Scientific procedure --- whats that? I can't be bothered with such trivial details. 2.) "According to the experts appearing in Explosive Evidence, the scientific community did reject the reports immediately, but it has taken a very long time for this message to reach the public." My point --- Not surprising in the least that it has taken a very long time. It has been suppressed and for obvious reasons. The public still hasn't got the message regarding JFK, the Gulf of Tonkin incident, Operation Northwoods, etc, etc right on down the line and how many years has it been since all those fun memories were made??? 3.) "While most people have probably heard that a scientific investigation has been conducted and that the building collapses were explained, few have probably looked at the NIST reports themselves. Links to the NIST reports can be found in the above mentioned Digital Journal article. NIST provides no data whatsoever on the actual collapse sequence itself." My point --- Few people have looked at the NIST reports? Again, not surprising. That takes effort and I clearly have more important things to do. LIke make some tweets about my new haircut. No data on the collapse sequence eh? Minor details I suppose. Easy to overlook. 4.) "The new attention to the issue could be significant for the U.S. presidential election." My point --- While I agree wholeheartedly with the content and message of this article this one line I tend to disagree with. Reality knocking........if (and this is a mighty big if) it does bring new attention to the issue then the public's attention will be quickly diverted back to Mitt Romney's tax returns and Obama's birth certificate. Gotta focus on the important things right? Now if you have read this far you might have noticed that I quoted a large portion of the original article in my attempt to make my ideas known. Soooooo......if you read the entire six paragraph article like I requested before you read over my points/comments and then read all my soapbox rantings then you almost read the article twice. Hopefully you did and hopefully reading it twice allowed the message to sink in. But if perhaps it did not do the trick then I ask one last thing of you.

.......first rule in capitalism = open the markets up. Then make some deals.

Oh sales down? The go back to rule number one. Open them up. Funny thing is, that to anyone who has ever spent any appreciable amount of time watching modern mainstream TV can/could tell you that if they start using drones to cover the news then ain't much really changing. Just changing some clone reporters out for newer easier to control drone reporters. Clones for drones. Drones and clones. What is the world coming to? Please don't answer that one. Especially Boogers. Don't answer. Its rhetorical.....

So this was the correspondance with my boss yesterday via email:

"If you are planning to work on Friday (and I hope you're not), you need to notify me by ... so I can tell security."


Keep in mind, this is merely hours after I contemplated asking to take the day off, considering I already submitted my 'hours worked' for the week. Needless to say, your ol' pal has a long weekend and two jackals at the beach waiting to get awesome and chase honeys like those pictured above...

Run and tell that.

Fhilosophy Friday

Whomever labeled George Carlin a comedian had their shit all wrong. Not only was he philosopher of the highest order, he was funny as shit. Peep these quotes and go on 'bout your day, Jackal style. "The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating …and you finish off as an orgasm.” ― George Carlin

“We're so self-important. So arrogant. Everybody's going to save something now. Save the trees, save the bees, save the whales, save the snails. And the supreme arrogance? Save the planet! Are these people kidding? Save the planet? We don't even know how to take care of ourselves; we haven't learned how to care for one another. We're gonna save the fuckin' planet? . . . And, by the way, there's nothing wrong with the planet in the first place. The planet is fine. The people are fucked! Compared with the people, the planet is doin' great. It's been here over four billion years . . . The planet isn't goin' anywhere, folks. We are! We're goin' away. Pack your shit, we're goin' away. And we won't leave much of a trace. Thank God for that. Nothing left. Maybe a little Styrofoam. The planet will be here, and we'll be gone. Another failed mutation; another closed-end biological mistake.” ― George Carlin

If push comes to shove.....

......and either RTB or BMR come up AWOL in the near future then I think we might keep this in mind as very likely the probable cause. Just sayin.....

Shoulders Fought the Law and Shoulders Won

Back in March on my way home from Mexican food with Lindsay and her roommate I was pulled over by a BIKE COP and given a $100 ticket for 'ditracted driving'.  Being a Jackal I fought the ticket with the following letter:

On March 14, 2012 I was driving home from dinner when I received a ticket for "distracted driving".  The following is an account of what happened that evening which I have 2 witnesses to and I do not believe it warrants a ticket. 

As I was sitting at a red light at Lincoln Park at 8:40pm I received a text message which caused my phone to vibrate in my pocket.  As this was distracting and I was almost back to my girlfriends house I took the phone out of my pocket and placed it in my cup holder as to remove the distraction.  2 blocks later I was pulled over by officer Parson at another red light and was given no explanation as to why I was pulled over.  When I asked if I had done something wrong he told me he "would let me know when I needed to know."  After presenting my license, registration, and insurance he went back to his bicycle and ran my information and could see that I have no outstanding tickets.  He then presented me with the $100 ticket without asking my side of the story at 8:50pm.  As you can see by the document attached I did not reply to the text I had received until 8:58pm, after I parked my car at my girlfriends house on the 700 block of 7th street.

I do not believe that DC law permit individuals from having cell phones turned on in their pocket while they are driving.  I further do not believe that drivers are prohibited from removing cell phones from their pocket and placing them in their cup holders while they are stopped at a stop light so that they can drive without being distracted.  Both of my witnesses are happy to attest to what happened the night in question if that is required.

Today I received the following:

SUCK ONE DC!!!
