A Manifesto

npsg — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:50:00 GMT

And this is yet another one of those posts that was written on my other blog sometime a while ago. It's just that this blog seems as if it wants to confuse me sometimes with it's Orwellian like truespeak with it's times, dates and histories in my attempt to maintain more than one blog whenever possible.....

Hey Bloggers, or whoever could be reading this blog. And in my web 2.0 social media user generated content blogaholicness, it is not so often that I find myself blah blogging the headlines. Okay, it is often. And this is one of those headlines of the day that I find myself blaghing with its titles and headlines as follows. And what commentary can I blog about this subject that has not already been said and is being said, I am not sure, as this seemingly communist, capitalist manifesto written afterwards seems to speak for itself:

"Man Crashes Plane Into Austin IRS Office .. Angry Suicide Note Posted",
"Small Plane Crashes Into I.R.S. Building in Texas",
"Suicidal Tax Protest: Joseph Stack Crashes Plane into IRS in Austin Texas",
"Joe Stack STATEMENT: Alleged Suicide Note From Austin Pilot Posted Online",
"The Manifesto Of Austin Texas Crash Pilot Joseph Andrew Stack",
"Joseph Stack Manifesto: Austin Plane Crash Pilot's Blog Text",
and a commentary...,"Isn't it obvious that Joe Stack was a Liberal? I mean if he was a Conservative he would have quoted Hitler....?",
and another commentary "How soon before Mr. Stack becomes the official Tea Party martyr?"

And for some reason that verse from the book, the bible seems to come to mind: "For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows". 1 Timothy 6:10. And the Manifesto from the website Embedded Art, (Is that that art show in the name of security at the Akademie der Kunst in Berlin Germany, or is that something altogether different?...), that seems to be finding its way throughout internetland cyberworld on this day as follows. And the list of headlines goes on and on....

If you’re reading this, you’re no doubt asking yourself, “Why did this have to happen?” The simple truth is that it is complicated and has been coming for a long time. The writing process, started many months ago, was intended to be therapy in the face of the looming realization that there isn’t enough therapy in the world that can fix what is really broken. Needless to say, this rant could fill volumes with example after example if I would let it. I find the process of writing it frustrating, tedious, and probably pointless… especially given my gross inability to gracefully articulate my thoughts in light of the storm raging in my head. Exactly what is therapeutic about that I’m not sure, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
We are all taught as children that without laws there would be no society, only anarchy. Sadly, starting at early ages we in this country have been brainwashed to believe that, in return for our dedication and service, our government stands for justice for all. We are further brainwashed to believe that there is freedom in this place, and that we should be ready to lay our lives down for the noble principals represented by its founding fathers. Remember? One of these was “no taxation without representation”. I have spent the total years of my adulthood unlearning that crap from only a few years of my childhood. These days anyone who really stands up for that principal is promptly labeled a “crackpot”, traitor and worse.

While very few working people would say they haven’t had their fair share of taxes (as can I), in my lifetime I can say with a great degree of certainty that there has never been a politician cast a vote on any matter with the likes of me or my interests in mind. Nor, for that matter, are they the least bit interested in me or anything I have to say.
Why is it that a handful of thugs and plunderers can commit unthinkable atrocities (and in the case of the GM executives, for scores of years) and when it’s time for their gravy train to crash under the weight of their gluttony and overwhelming stupidity, the force of the full federal government has no difficulty coming to their aid within days if not hours? Yet at the same time, the joke we call the American medical system, including the drug and insurance companies, are murdering tens of thousands of people a year and stealing from the corpses and victims they cripple, and this country’s leaders don’t see this as important as bailing out a few of their vile, rich cronies. Yet, the political “representatives” (thieves, liars, and self-serving scumbags is far more accurate) have endless time to sit around for year after year and debate the state of the “terrible health care problem”. It’s clear they see no crisis as long as the dead people don’t get in the way of their corporate profits rolling in.
And justice? You’ve got to be kidding!
How can any rational individual explain that white elephant conundrum in the middle of our tax system and, indeed, our entire legal system? Here we have a system that is, by far, too complicated for the brightest of the master scholars to understand. Yet, it mercilessly “holds accountable” its victims, claiming that they’re responsible for fully complying with laws not even the experts understand. The law “requires” a signature on the bottom of a tax filing; yet no one can say truthfully that they understand what they are signing; if that’s not “duress” than what is. If this is not the measure of a totalitarian regime, nothing is.
How did I get here?
My introduction to the real American nightmare starts back in the early ‘80s. Unfortunately after more than 16 years of school, somewhere along the line I picked up the absurd, pompous notion that I could read and understand plain English. Some friends introduced me to a group of people who were having ‘tax code’ readings and discussions. In particular, zeroed in on a section relating to the wonderful “exemptions” that make institutions like the vulgar, corrupt Catholic Church so incredibly wealthy. We carefully studied the law (with the help of some of the “best”, high-paid, experienced tax lawyers in the business), and then began to do exactly what the “big boys” were doing (except that we weren’t steeling from our congregation or lying to the government about our massive profits in the name of God). We took a great deal of care to make it all visible, following all of the rules, exactly the way the law said it was to be done.
The intent of this exercise and our efforts was to bring about a much-needed re-evaluation of the laws that allow the monsters of organized religion to make such a mockery of people who earn an honest living. However, this is where I learned that there are two “interpretations” for every law; one for the very rich, and one for the rest of us… Oh, and the monsters are the very ones making and enforcing the laws; the inquisition is still alive and well today in this country.
That little lesson in patriotism cost me $40,000+, 10 years of my life, and set my retirement plans back to 0. It made me realize for the first time that I live in a country with an ideology that is based on a total and complete lie. It also made me realize, not only how naive I had been, but also the incredible stupidity of the American public; that they buy, hook, line, and sinker, the crap about their “freedom”… and that they continue to do so with eyes closed in the face of overwhelming evidence and all that keeps happening in front of them.
Before even having to make a shaky recovery from the sting of the first lesson on what justice really means in this country (around 1984 after making my way through engineering school and still another five years of “paying my dues”), I felt I finally had to take a chance of launching my dream of becoming an independent engineer.
On the subjects of engineers and dreams of independence, I should digress somewhat to say that I’m sure that I inherited the fascination for creative problem solving from my father. I realized this at a very young age.
The significance of independence, however, came much later during my early years of college; at the age of 18 or 19 when I was living on my own as student in an apartment in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. My neighbor was an elderly retired woman (80+ seemed ancient to me at that age) who was the widowed wife of a retired steel worker. Her husband had worked all his life in the steel mills of central Pennsylvania with promises from big business and the union that, for his 30 years of service, he would have a pension and medical care to look forward to in his retirement. Instead he was one of the thousands who got nothing because the incompetent mill management and corrupt union (not to mention the government) raided their pension funds and stole their retirement. All she had was social security to live on.
In retrospect, the situation was laughable because here I was living on peanut butter and bread (or Ritz crackers when I could afford to splurge) for months at a time. When I got to know this poor figure and heard her story I felt worse for her plight than for my own (I, after all, I thought I had everything to in front of me). I was genuinely appalled at one point, as we exchanged stories and commiserated with each other over our situations, when she in her grandmotherly fashion tried to convince me that I would be “healthier” eating cat food (like her) rather than trying to get all my substance from peanut butter and bread. I couldn’t quite go there, but the impression was made. I decided that I didn’t trust big business to take care of me, and that I would take responsibility for my own future and myself.
Return to the early ‘80s, and here I was off to a terrifying start as a ‘wet-behind-the-ears’ contract software engineer… and two years later, thanks to the fine backroom, midnight effort by the sleazy executives of Arthur Andersen (the very same folks who later brought us Enron and other such calamities) and an equally sleazy New York Senator (Patrick Moynihan), we saw the passage of 1986 tax reform act with its section 1706.
For you who are unfamiliar, here is the core text of the IRS Section 1706, defining the treatment of workers (such as contract engineers) for tax purposes. Visit this link for a conference committee report (http://www.synergistech.com/1706.shtml#ConferenceCommitteeReport) regarding the intended interpretation of Section 1706 and the relevant parts of Section 530, as amended. For information on how these laws affect technical services workers and their clients, read our discussion here (http://www.synergistech.com/ic-taxlaw.shtml).
SEC. 1706. TREATMENT OF CERTAIN TECHNICAL PERSONNEL.
(a) IN GENERAL - Section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978 is amended by adding at the end thereof the following new subsection:
(d) EXCEPTION. - This section shall not apply in the case of an individual who pursuant to an arrangement between the taxpayer and another person, provides services for such other person as an engineer, designer, drafter, computer programmer, systems analyst, or other similarly skilled worker engaged in a similar line of work.
(b) EFFECTIVE DATE. - The amendment made by this section shall apply to remuneration paid and services rendered after December 31, 1986.
Note:
Â• “another person” is the client in the traditional job-shop relationship.
Â• “taxpayer” is the recruiter, broker, agency, or job shop.
Â• “individual”, “employee”, or “worker” is you.
Admittedly, you need to read the treatment to understand what it is saying but it’s not very complicated. The bottom line is that they may as well have put my name right in the text of section (d). Moreover, they could only have been more blunt if they would have came out and directly declared me a criminal and non-citizen slave. Twenty years later, I still can’t believe my eyes.
During 1987, I spent close to $5000 of my ‘pocket change’, and at least 1000 hours of my time writing, printing, and mailing to any senator, congressman, governor, or slug that might listen; none did, and they universally treated me as if I was wasting their time. I spent countless hours on the L.A. freeways driving to meetings and any and all of the disorganized professional groups who were attempting to mount a campaign against this atrocity. This, only to discover that our efforts were being easily derailed by a few moles from the brokers who were just beginning to enjoy the windfall from the new declaration of their “freedom”. Oh, and don’t forget, for all of the time I was spending on this, I was loosing income that I couldn’t bill clients.
After months of struggling it had clearly gotten to be a futile exercise. The best we could get for all of our trouble is a pronouncement from an IRS mouthpiece that they weren’t going to enforce that provision (read harass engineers and scientists). This immediately proved to be a lie, and the mere existence of the regulation began to have its impact on my bottom line; this, of course, was the intended effect.
Again, rewind my retirement plans back to 0 and shift them into idle. If I had any sense, I clearly should have left abandoned engineering and never looked back.
Instead I got busy working 100-hour workweeks. Then came the L.A. depression of the early 1990s. Our leaders decided that they didn’t need the all of those extra Air Force bases they had in Southern California, so they were closed; just like that. The result was economic devastation in the region that rivaled the widely publicized Texas S&L fiasco. However, because the government caused it, no one gave a shit about all of the young families who lost their homes or street after street of boarded up houses abandoned to the wealthy loan companies who received government funds to “shore up” their windfall. Again, I lost my retirement.
Years later, after weathering a divorce and the constant struggle trying to build some momentum with my business, I find myself once again beginning to finally pick up some speed. Then came the .COM bust and the 911 nightmare. Our leaders decided that all aircraft were grounded for what seemed like an eternity; and long after that, ‘special’ facilities like San Francisco were on security alert for months. This made access to my customers prohibitively expensive. Ironically, after what they had done the Government came to the aid of the airlines with billions of our tax dollars … as usual they left me to rot and die while they bailed out their rich, incompetent cronies WITH MY MONEY! After these events, there went my business but not quite yet all of my retirement and savings.
By this time, I’m thinking that it might be good for a change. Bye to California, I’ll try Austin for a while. So I moved, only to find out that this is a place with a highly inflated sense of self-importance and where damn little real engineering work is done. I’ve never experienced such a hard time finding work. The rates are 1/3 of what I was earning before the crash, because pay rates here are fixed by the three or four large companies in the area who are in collusion to drive down prices and wages… and this happens because the justice department is all on the take and doesn’t give a fuck about serving anyone or anything but themselves and their rich buddies.
To survive, I was forced to cannibalize my savings and retirement, the last of which was a small IRA. This came in a year with mammoth expenses and not a single dollar of income. I filed no return that year thinking that because I didn’t have any income there was no need. The sleazy government decided that they disagreed. But they didn’t notify me in time for me to launch a legal objection so when I attempted to get a protest filed with the court I was told I was no longer entitled to due process because the time to file ran out. Bend over for another $10,000 helping of justice.
So now we come to the present. After my experience with the CPA world, following the business crash I swore that I’d never enter another accountant’s office again. But here I am with a new marriage and a boatload of undocumented income, not to mention an expensive new business asset, a piano, which I had no idea how to handle. After considerable thought I decided that it would be irresponsible NOT to get professional help; a very big mistake.
When we received the forms back I was very optimistic that they were in order. I had taken all of the years information to Bill Ross, and he came back with results very similar to what I was expecting. Except that he had neglected to include the contents of Sheryl’s unreported income; $12,700 worth of it. To make matters worse, Ross knew all along this was missing and I didn’t have a clue until he pointed it out in the middle of the audit. By that time it had become brutally evident that he was representing himself and not me.
This left me stuck in the middle of this disaster trying to defend transactions that have no relationship to anything tax-related (at least the tax-related transactions were poorly documented). Things I never knew anything about and things my wife had no clue would ever matter to anyone. The end result is… well, just look around.
I remember reading about the stock market crash before the “great” depression and how there were wealthy bankers and businessmen jumping out of windows when they realized they screwed up and lost everything. Isn’t it ironic how far we’ve come in 60 years in this country that they now know how to fix that little economic problem; they just steal from the middle class (who doesn’t have any say in it, elections are a joke) to cover their asses and it’s “business-as-usual”. Now when the wealthy fuck up, the poor get to die for the mistakes… isn’t that a clever, tidy solution.
As government agencies go, the FAA is often justifiably referred to as a tombstone agency, though they are hardly alone. The recent presidential puppet GW Bush and his cronies in their eight years certainly reinforced for all of us that this criticism rings equally true for all of the government. Nothing changes unless there is a body count (unless it is in the interest of the wealthy sows at the government trough). In a government full of hypocrites from top to bottom, life is as cheap as their lies and their self-serving laws.
I know I’m hardly the first one to decide I have had all I can stand. It has always been a myth that people have stopped dying for their freedom in this country, and it isn’t limited to the blacks, and poor immigrants. I know there have been countless before me and there are sure to be as many after. But I also know that by not adding my body to the count, I insure nothing will change. I choose to not keep looking over my shoulder at “big brother” while he strips my carcass, I choose not to ignore what is going on all around me, I choose not to pretend that business as usual won’t continue; I have just had enough.
I can only hope that the numbers quickly get too big to be white washed and ignored that the American zombies wake up and revolt; it will take nothing less. I would only hope that by striking a nerve that stimulates the inevitable double standard, knee-jerk government reaction that results in more stupid draconian restrictions people wake up and begin to see the pompous political thugs and their mindless minions for what they are. Sadly, though I spent my entire life trying to believe it wasn’t so, but violence not only is the answer, it is the only answer. The cruel joke is that the really big chunks of shit at the top have known this all along and have been laughing, at and using this awareness against, fools like me all along.
I saw it written once that the definition of insanity is repeating the same process over and over and expecting the outcome to suddenly be different. I am finally ready to stop this insanity. Well, Mr. Big Brother IRS man, let’s try something different; take my pound of flesh and sleep well.
The communist creed: From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.
The capitalist creed: From each according to his gullibility, to each according to his greed.

And according to this weeks weekly mailing of Jeff Stark's Nonsense NYC list there is an event today as follows.

And I found myself posting a blog entry about Haiti and mother earth a week ago or so as follows:

Andaccording to that Gregorian calendar, it is Sunday on this day, day ofGod, the Sabbath, the day of rest, or is that Saturday. And yet I findmyself blogging on this blog. And I have found myself reading, watchingand listening to the news this past week of the latest natural disasterof an earthquake that has taken many lives along with it here on planetearth that has afflicted the city of Port-Au-Prince, Haiti. And itseems to be a tragic event with images of devastation that representthe fragility of life as human beings that seem as if they are takenfrom the apocalypse. And in those thoughts I thought to post someverses on the internet from that book the Bible in various translationsin relation to life and death:

By the sweat of your brow youwill eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it youwere taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.

A time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,

Man'sfate is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: Asone dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; man has noadvantage over the animal. Everything is meaningless.

All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return.

Who knows if the spirit of man rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?"

And I declared that the dead, who had already died, are happier than the living, who are still alive.

Nakeda man comes from his mother's womb, and as he comes, so he departs. Hetakes nothing from his labor that he can carry in his hand. Even if helives a thousand years twice over but fails to enjoy his prosperity. Donot all go to the same place?

No man has power over the wind to contain it; so no one has power over the day of his death.

Anyone who is among the living has hope--even a live dog is better off than a dead lion!

Forthe living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; theyhave no further reward, and even the memory of them is forgotten

I know you will bring me down to death, to the place appointed for all the living

for he will take nothing with him when he dies, his splendor will not descend with him

As for man, his days are like grass, he flourishes like a flower of the field;

The wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more.

Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow.

When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing.

ThenI looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labourthat I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation ofspirit, and there was no profit under the sun.

And I turnedmyself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what can the mando that cometh after the king? even that which hath been already done.

ThereforeI hated life; because the work that is wrought under the sun isgrievous unto me: for all is vanity and vexation of spirit.

Yea, I hated all my labour which I had taken under the sun: because I should leave it unto the man that shall be after me.

Andwho knoweth whether he shall be a wise man or a fool? yet shall he haverule over all my labour wherein I have laboured, and wherein I haveshewed myself wise under the sun. This is also vanity.

For all his days are sorrows, and his travail grief; yea, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity.

Beholdthat which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and todrink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor that he taketh under thesun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is hisportion.

As he came forth of his mother's womb, naked shall hereturn to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labor, which hemay carry away in his hand.

Whatever your hand finds to do, doit with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there isneither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.

And A Psalm

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea,though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear noevil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

AndGod shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be nomore death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any morepain: for the former things are passed away.

The business of birth, the business of death. Mortal man. We are all born to die.

Random Thoughts

npsg — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 15:20:00 GMT

Hey Bloggers, and here are more of those random thoughts that I find myself scribbling down on pieces of paper every so often in an attempt to maintain this blog with some sort of content whenever possible in my blogaholicness web 2.0 user generated contentness. And I am not exactly sure what to make of these thoughts:
Corporation. That word seems to sound like the word corruption, maybe. And for what reason? Are corporations corrupt? Is that the power and authority breeds corruption philosophy or something. And then for some reason or another, there were the words cursed at birth, the business of being born. The way one is born and arrives into this world. To be blessed or cursed at birth. Is it destiny, fate, numbers, the lottery. What are the odds to be cursed at birth. What's that all about. And then again were thoughts; cards, the game of life. One can only play with the cards they are dealt with in the game of life. And what's that all about I am not exactly sure either. And then there are those random thoughts scribbled of NYPD, as in I guess the New York Department of Police policies to be found in that city of New York, and Checkpoint Charlie on the highway asking for logbook and licenses stopping seemingly every single automobile in one of those road blocks waving automobiles over to the side of the road for what reason I am not exactly sure, except for the idea that one has a vehicle to be stopped maybe. And what comment is there to be said about Checkpoint Charlie, and that Checkpoint Charlie Museum to be found in that city of Berlin and country of Germany. "You are now leaving the western sector", or something like that. And what, if anything does this have to do with a No Police State. Have a great random thoughts day.

A Diet

npsg — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 15:09:00 GMT

A Jacket

npsg — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 14:56:00 GMT

Hey Bloggers, or whoever could be reading this blog, and this posting happens to be about Nascar jackets. You know those jackets that are usually worn during Nascar, that speedway race one usually sees on television as one of those sports with cars speeding around in circles on a track. And if you happen to be looking for those 2010 Nascar jackets for some reason or another, you can find them at SpeedwayJacketsPlus.com. They are a website where you can find that Nascar jacket you may be looking for as they are all Nascar jackets all the time.

The Day Of Rest

npsg — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 23:17:00 GMT

And this is another one of those posts that was posted on my other blog some time a while ago. It's just that this blog seems as if it wants to confuse me sometimes with it's Orwellian like truespeak with its times, dates and histories, in my attempt to maintain more than one blog....

And on this day here on planet earth seems to find itself Sunday again that has rolled around. That day of the sun, day of God, day of rest, the sabbath. Or is that Saturday. And yet I find myself here on this web 2.0 social media user generated content blog reading Yahoo, CNN, Google and MSN headlines of the day that read "Gas blast at Conn. power plant kills at least 5", "Evacuees return to LA-area homes swamped with mud", "Super Bowl XLIV: Follow the Action Live", and the list of headlines goes on and one at the rate of a zillioneter per second with the invent of high tech technology in the information age. And oh the world, times, society and days we live in here on planet earth. And sometimes it seems to be a cacophony of a world spinning out of control. And the thought of Kali Yuga, Age of Aquarius and 2012 seems to come to mind for some reason. And then I find myself blah blogging random thoughts written down on some piece of paper somewhere with topics and titles such as Lemmings commit suicide. What's that all about. And I think I came across that topic and thought while watching one of those PBS documentaries a while ago. And then there's the random thought Konige, German for the word King, I think. And that Konige word seems to sound like the word coinage, coins, As is konige is king, cash is king, coin is king. Have a great random thoughts day.

A Holy Grail Vision

npsg — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 13:56:00 GMT

And in the age of web 2.0 social media user generated content, I am not exactly sure what to make of this document entitled "GRIST" that my friend Rita gave me some time a while ago as one of the latest of her revelations having to do with something new agey, spiritual, holy secret hidden vision, or simply the end of the world. And its meaning is almost too complex, mystical and scary for me to comprehend. And I would have liked to have posted a photo of that chart she gave me, and yet it is not in this post for some reason or another. Though if I can attempt to blah blog and type in the words as it in written down on this paper in mumble jumble, it would read something sort of like her email below. And could this all be related to those 2012, mayan calendar, age of the aquarius, kali yuga, Edgar Cayce, Nostradamus philosophy revelations. If you believe.:

"I have had a "GRAIL" experience I want very much to share with you. It is amazing what has come to me about this over the past 30 years since the "clues" began tugging at me in so many ways; I knew intuitively that it was important all along but how important I never imagined. Please look at this grid where you can see the "GRAIL". I have a yahoo group where I share this and the rest of the "Grail Vision" which has been "revealed" to me with 14 other invited members".

Here is the Grail:

It's in RED. MAY is the Stem and base of the cup which form in the months of the year. Notice the word Berry which is spelled in the three upper levels of the Grail grid. The May Cup catches what "pagans" call the "first blood" of the berries which combined with herbs and spice becomes the "May Cup" of the May Festival. Notice I removed June and July, the opening of the year of the Summer Solstice. The June and July is a gate through which one must pass into the map. The gate is formed by the J J with cross bars. It looks a lot like Pi. The Hebrew month of Elul is June/July; this month is about the "eyes". The inundation of the Nile occurs at this auspicious time. To see the "grail" it is necessary to enter the gate and close the gap (close the physical eyes--the U U of June and July) so that one sees with the spiritual eye of the Grail, the Gof A U G U S T. Notice the G in August begins the word Grail; it is situated between two Us or closed physical eyes. Somehow the science of Meditation and the God's allseeing eye has been encrypted in our Months of the Year. It is also in the Alphabet on a pyramid which I will also be revealing on my yahoo group.

Please read my homepage introduction. I'm writing the book chapter by chapter on
the yahoo group for those whom I invite to see.

Oh, and I just found that chart she made in the photo above in yet another email with another explanation as follows. If you believe.

And Time Out New York,that really cool all New York all the time magazine, has a really cool issue titled Most Stylish New Yorkers in their last weeks edition. I know, because that copy of it I came across says so. And it seems to be a stylish and coloforul tabloid like fashion plate of people around town dressed up in fashion statements indeed.

Random Thoughts

npsg — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 13:11:00 GMT

And there are thoughts that I find myself scribbling down on some piece of paper every so often for the purpose of one of those days I may get around to blah blogging them. And some of those thoughts on this day happen to be the topic of home ownership. What's that all about? I have thought of home ownership as the idea that one can never truly own a home when there are state property taxes to be paid and the possibility that the state could take ones home as one of those foreclosures contributing to the mortgage meltdown if it doesn't receive its rent in the name of property taxes as the ultimate landlord. What's that all about? And then there's that Port Authority of New York and New Jersey bus terminal at 42nd Street to be found in that city of New York with all of it's buses, subways, shopping, business, transportation and people running back and forth going their way. And in the midst of all of this bustle and business are to be found those people dressed in military and camouflaged garb standing there brandishing machine guns as if awaiting world war three. What's that all about. Is this another one of those New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority things where it floods its systems with more City of New York Police Department transit officers than riders? If only those subway, bus and transportation fares were free. No one is free while others are oppresses. And then there's the topic of TV as in television, or evil vision, vision of evil, as those letters in the word television seem to have the words evil and live in it for some reason. And does this iconoclast of a tv create some sort of discord in households and homes and contribute to a cause for many divorces, maybe, for reasons being one wants to watch and listen tv and another does not, maybe. Someone wants to listen to a noisemaker entertainment device deceive, and another person in that household does not. And could those ear phones and ear plugs come in handy at this point. And what's with all of that non stop drama and crime hours that seemingly fill up ninety percent of the programming or something like that on television anyway. And what if anything does this have to do with a No Police State?

Gold

npsg — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 19:51:00 GMT

gold bullion. And with the recession, impending depression and the economy seeming to go downhill faster than the speed of light, this seems to be a phrase that is advertised a lot these day and times, the buying and selling of gold. And at The United States Gold Bureau, you can save your savings with gold. You can buy gold bullions, gold coins, rare coins, precious metals and more at their website as they are all gold all the time.

Information

npsg — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 00:34:00 GMT

And with the economy and the recession, impending depression going downhill faster than the speed of light, pre-employment screening seems as if it can be a phrase that a lot of people could be uttering these days and times. And at Accurate Information Systems, with the invention of the internet and high tech information everything, you can find that information you may be looking for, as they are all information systems and more.

Haiti

npsg — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 00:31:00 GMT

And even though this event may have passed. Haiti and life as it exists on planet earth is still here.
Yesterday was history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift, that's why it's called the present. And so those preceding words were to be found as a quote in someones email that I received and elsewhere in life as one of those parables. And I still find myself reading, watching and listening to the news this past week of the latest natural disaster of an earthquake that has taken many lives along with it here on planet earth that has afflicted the city of Port-Au-Prince, Haiti. And it seems to be a tragic event with images of devastation that represent the fragility of life as human beings that seem as if they are taken from the apocalypse. And in commentary of those photos of Haiti in the newspapers this past week, of armed military guards guarding piles of rubble, I am unable to comprehend, for what reason does one guard a pile of rubble. And in response to the tragedy in Haiti Jeff Stark's nonsensenyc list has events for Haiti this week as follows:
