'Case you hadn't heard there's a bit of an issue in the Gulf. That oil's still steadily leakin'. So much so that this gunk is washin' up on my beaches and rainin' on my Cajun brothers over in Louisiana.
I don't know what to say about it exactly. I guess that's why I haven't said anything yet. All I can figure to say is fix the damn thing already. And get us off oil. Oil is limited and is gonna run out on us one day. It's dirty and messy. It is a motivational tool for people to start wars and kill each other over.
I heard a story, and I'm not sure if it's a hundred percent true but I'd buy it as logical. So there was a time when electricity was like that new I-phonewhatchakajigger and everybody had to have it. It was gonna change the world. J.P. Morgan Chase invested some big money in the copper wires that were gonna be used to bring it to every house in America. At the same time Nikola Tesla, as in the Tesla coil and about 100 other patents, was thinkin' a few steps ahead of the game as geniuses do. He figured out a way to bring people electricity with out wires, kinda like what they do with our wireless Internet or those charging pad things. Well Chase wasn't havin' that so he pretty well shut him down with his money and influential ties. A lotta people stood to lose money if Tesla got his way and people would've saved a lot of money.
Tesla was a genius and got shut down in his day. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla Even some of his patents came up missing according to wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Tesla_patents There they say he had a theory about and engine-less plane that could fly using electromagnetism that would look sumthin' like a saucer.
A flyin' saucer? Absurd right? 'Cept what if the Government and influential money bag types were keepin' these theories hush so they could say steal 'em and experiment with them in quiet locations where people wouldn't notice 'em? A desert maybe? Like in New Mexico? They got a lil air force base out there. And you know four short years after Tesla died alone and "crazy" in a hotel room a saucer crash landed in Roswell. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roswell_UFO_incident
Not sayin' its true. But it's at least feasible.
I also hear that people are gettin' upset about this Internet control bill. http://www.smh.com.au/technology/security/obama-internet-kill-switch-bill-approved-20100625-z8sf.html
What a lotta people don't realize is that the government already has control of this thing. They can read all this stuff as easy as flippin' through a picture book. Anything you or I ever posted is there's to remove from cyberspace or use to incriminate us or figure out where we are and what we're up to. Now more than ever with facebook, myspace, twitter, and any other website you give yourself up to the system to play a game, keep up with old friends, or look at nudy pics. There isn't much hidin' for your average Internet user. If we were ever any serious threat to anyone we'd be labeled a Nazi, Communist, terrorist or whatever the enemy of freedom may be at that time and taken in under a black hood never to be seen again. The rest of us are governed by the rules of the world as it is commonly seen.
The world is run by money. At least America is. I love the freedoms we can enjoy in this country. But I won't have lies or thugs posing as legitimate businessmen manipulating the people. If you look and open your eyes you can see the strings, puppets.
You hear about alternative energy sources but no one invests in those crazy dreamers because there's good money left in oil. As oil dies out more and more people are investing in those sources until we use them up.
The banks and credit cards charge you fees to be in debt to them and misspend your money. Their job is to hold your money and keep it safe. I don't want to rack up ten billion points in money spent for a free airline ticket to Hawaii. I don't want to have 15 grand in my savings account for you not to take 20 bucks a months from me for holding on to it. If I didn't have a hundred dollars to pay for X why would I agree to instead to pay 120 to Y? Oh to be as cool as Brad Pitt, well that makes sense.
Why does the rest of the world not seem to like us? We think we are the best. We think we are the good guys. We are not. We send soldiers to kill for more oil. Worse than that we send young boys to kill for more oil. We send young, horny, immature, dumbass, boys to kill for oil. Some of the rape innocent people. Some of them kill innocent people. Some of them steal from innocent people. War is not precise. War is not beautiful. It does not turn a boy into a man. It corrupts a boy. It is messy. It is ugly. The best of those soldiers come back wounded physically or mentally or both. It is unfortunate what we do to these boys.
I love comics. It's easy to see the good guy be handsome and dressed in brightly colored spandex or the bad guy as an ugly monster. The world is not that simple. We are all just people. Just people tryin' to make our lives as good as we can, sometimes that means shuttin' down the genius of a good man to make a quick buck. That won't ever be me though.
Read everything you can. Question everything. Doubt everyone. See all the angles. Think freely.
