Some fine paintings shown recently in Pittsburgh by artist Dave Cubie. Seems there was also sculpture by Gary Greiwe, but the international press conspiracy kept his works offline. Has he sculpted an affront to God? Or maybe Presidnet Bush? He does have a dinosaur here though. I drank a lot of Milwaukee’s Best with both of these guys, so show them some goddamn respect!

Long Time Ally, Ackme, had this to say in a recent email to me. He hits the verbal nail on the head and I’d like to share it.
Ackme:
All the crap about right wing/left wing is officially declared bullshit. There’s a real “us against them” feeling going around, and “they” are mostly rich, in favor of huge corporate profits and tax cuts, which means “they” are against wages and lower taxes for wage earners. “They” lied to get the war. “They” cynically exploited 9/11. “They” are against Gay marriage, stem cell research, abortion, sex, drugs, and fun in general.
Except for themselves, of course.
“They” never work, never go hungry, never fight in wars, never have a worry in life. And all of a sudden, people are realizing that “they” don’t give a fuck about anyone but themselves and “they” constitute about 1% of the population. Oh, and “they” own the top positions in almost every company, and in both political parties. There was a movie about it! “They Live.”

A man was shot and killed on Tuesday during a Masonic initiation. Beware of secret handshakes involving a .38!

From our Command Ally, Tom. An Alien Jesus reminder to vote. We endorse no one, we endorse getting involved. Don’t Let the Fourth Reich rise.
_______________________________________
Why does Tom vote, damn good question. I vote because I want the government to know what I want. I don’t vote necessarily with the intention of my candidate even winning, because she doesn’t have to win to get my point across or the peoples point across. Think about what would happen if 2% of the popular vote went to the socialist wouldn’t you think that would make the politicians think, what the hell is up? Every vote counts, because if you ask yourself well my vote doesn’t count, can you tell me who’s does? Lol, if you know this person can you send me an email because I want to talk to him about some things. Someone once said to me that not voting is a vote in and of itself and at the time I thought this was a smart thing. Well if 30 million Americans don’t vote it does sends a message, shit is screwed up. What it doesn’t say is how they are screwed up and how we would like it changed. Anyway one opinion matters just like one vote matters. Someone had to be the first to stand up and say wait slavery is fucked up, why aren’t women voting again, who says I can’t have freedom of speech?.

“First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out–
because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out–
because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out–
because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out–
because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me–
and there was no one left to speak out for me”

Huge chemtrail activity in the skies over Phoenix on Sunday, November 30th. I’ve posted some photos for your enjoyment. Any theories out there?

The Problem
It’s becoming clear that current American military manpower is insufficient to support our current agenda of empire building. Although our forces have been sufficient to make Afghanistan safe for opium farmers and Iraq relatively safe for Halliburton and Dyncorp, the effort has required substantial mobilizations of National Guard and Reserve troops. These mobilizations have raised some very serious questions for soldiers considering reenlistment. Senator John McCain has even expressed his concern about reservists deciding the burden is too great, and leaving the military to become full time civilians. Some have suggested the reinstatement of the draft as a solution to the Pentagon’s staffing woes. At first glance, the idea of reinstating the draft seems an untenable position to take in an election year. Granted, if anyone can sugar coat the draft and sell it to the American public like Skittles, it’s Karl Rove. But I have an alternative that would allow us to beef up our military inexpensively, while solving another problem that’s been simmering for years: illegal immigration.

If TV is to be left to its own devices offering the demanding public what it wants, it’d certain implode. TV has never been as stupid as it is now.
Last night Derren Brown on British Channel 4, was yet again on TV, showing us just what it means to be stupid. He was performing live Russian Roulette (as if). Poster plastered across London proclaimed that now Magic is Dead (Jesus Motherfucking Christ, who revived it in the first place?). According to some press release the program was shown with a 15 second delay in case “something would go wrong”. So much for LIVE tv.
Anyway, the program was set in some dumbshit studio in the corner of nowhere, or at least so it seemed. We were thankful only to catch the last minute of the program. It was at that point that he picked up his loaded gun, pulled the trigger … and it went blank … nothing. What a surprise. Now it would have been absolute fantastic, we mean, a dream, if he’d actually gone ahead and shot himself. That truly would have been “magic”. The program was of such poor quality that you could hardly make out the audible difference between a blank chamber and bullet being fired. It was not even amusing or funny, just a fucking waste of everyone time. Master Moron Derren Brown even hugged the idiot who’d loaded his gun at the end of the program, as if he’d just achieved something great.
If only more people would truly shot themselves on TV, that would really spice up our lives. We can think of at least a dozen names.

If you haven’t yet heard about Lyle Barkley’s struggles with Charlevoix County and Bay Township, Michigan, you probably will soon enough. He’s fighting a court order to remove some trailers from his property, and has vowed to defend his rights by whatever means necessary. An armed 600 man militia from Denver has agreed to help him defend his property against government authorities, and two Michigan based militias are also planning to join the fray. Barkley’s supporters have set up a blog to keep the public informed. It sounds like this situation could turn ugly in the next few days. If the feds get involved, they’ll have to brand Barkley and his family as terrorists, and I don’t see that charge sticking against a patriotic American who’s just trying to defend his property rights. Whether or not he’s in the wrong legally won’t matter to most people; morally, people are going to feel for this guy if the situation develops into another Waco/Ruby Ridge scenario.

A lot has been written and said recently whether or not Flight Simulation Games can be used to train terrorist. This particularly aspect of simulation software is extremely boring if not outright uninteresting. I seriously doubt you’ll ever be able to fully simulate the feeling of moving around a 100 tons of perfectly shaped aluminium on a narrow road. “Yes sir, but I am not interested in landing or take-offs, but only cruising.” Nor will one ever be able to completely simulate the conditions of a wind shear. The whole thing is mentally retarded, the bad kind of retarded. Let us instead look at completely different aspect of the simulation business, one very different I tell you.
I have friends who travel the world every once a while. The fly out from Airports across the globe, cross time zones and touch down in different climates. Whenever anyone of them fly somewhere I make it my duty to simulate their flight prior to their ‘real world’ departure. A simulated flight which has to be perfect with no room for error or a 4x time acceleration just because I feel ‘bored’. It has to be technically correct, the best kind of correctness. Or as close as one can get. I don’t have the uniform, nor do I eat something different than my co-pilot and my flight attendants must be on strike. My aircraft is modelled in Decreet GMAX, it bends but when it burns rubber upon touch down it doesn’t smell. If I look right I see not tarmac, but my shelf. But never mind those details.
If I don’t do it, something ‘could’ go wrong. It’s a bit like a technological man’s catholic church. Instead of praying I take them to the virtual sky, enjoying the carefully simulated retraction of the flap mechanism. Correct, Jesus isn’t there, and he isn’t needed, but the assurance within my own head that if I can do, so can somebody who’s actually educated to do the real thing. I can watch my simulated airspeed and my fuel consumption and make sure that the fasten seat bell sign is off even though I at 38.000 feet and enjoying my fourth beer. I might be slightly intoxicated, but it doesn’t touch my dedication, which is making sure that my friends arrive safely, ignoring publicly accessible security records. I’ve got my own records, buddy, and they don’t look good, so I better make sure I do this good.

Phoenix on track for hottest July on record
“It’s so hot windshields are shattering or falling out, dogs are burning their paws on the pavement, and candles are melting indoors.”
We at the command like to not depend soley on the conveniences of man made cooling, the grid could go down and there you are, un-acclimated to the elements. But Phoenix this summer…no matter what you read about the heat here, it’s worse than what they say. It’s hell, and the air-conditioner has been buzzing on high for the whole month and we still can’t cool off. There is no acclimating to 110+ degrees day after night after day.
We gotta get out of this place…..
