"The news today is like a snow globe, i turn it on each morning to see what was shaken up.." Mary T.,lawyer/friend/county staffer

aloha 2u rant lovers,
been offline all week as my PC was being rebuilt,quasi cyber-lobotomy?
it began "life" a dozen plus years ago and now five hard drives.
later there is lil or no trace of the old IBM Aptiva shell it was built in.

lessons in mortality
had to sew new Velcro on my knee braces,since i had time to kill,
a ten minute task took me about ninety.hands cramping due to
carpal tunnel and diabetic neuropathy.it was both humbling and painful,
a foreshadow of things to come...this cold weather is not helping
i now wear arthritis gloves under my day gloves,sigh...

BTW before "Frankie" went down
there was an interesting piece on a science page i subscribe to.
up until now it has always been assumed that Neanderthals
were a dead end of human evolution,
now the opposite appears true.
looking at physiology and morphology,whatever,
the natural end of primate evolution is Neanderthals,
or the newly named Denovian proto Neanderthals
with the "sports" or branching mutations being
both Homo Sap and the hobbits of Indonesia...
and perhaps Sasquatch,Yowie,Yeti,Bigfoot?
this does confirm Ancient Astronaut theorists that Homo Sap was "created"
as in the Book of Genesis to be stewards of the Earth..or sheeple laborers.

BTW did you know that when the Japan island chain
was invaded from Korea by the proto Japanese that it
was already occupied by the Ainu, tribes of white primitive aborginals?
from whence did they come so close to China and SouthEast Asia?
hopefully someone will do DNA trace evidence b4 they go extinct.

what else?
"hard choices" & "shared sacrifice"
whenever i see or hear this i cringe as i know that more cuts
are coming for we the downtrodden...
when CNN , among others, is cheer leading that NOW
is the time for the "lil Guy" to invest in The Market
i know its time for the spring sheeple to be shorn.
the Game is rigged, the dice loaded, the cards palmed,
there is no pea under any of the shells.

just look to Wisconsin and its shambles of government and hocus pocus
Jesse Jackson, i m so not a fan, said it best
'no ceiling on wealth for the rich and no floor for the poor'.

BTW2 the War on Drugs turned 40 years old last week,
the War on Poverty,War on Drugs,War on Cancer,War on Communism
we have never really 'won' any of these.
WIRED 'zine has a full issue on The Underworld and who buys what from whom.
why does the USA use and need more drugs than the rest of the world combined?
why is Rehab money being cut as part of the so called Austerity Measures?
why has No One on WallStreet gone to jail???
its time,long past time, this country took a long hard look
at the shit thats gone down and rearrange its priorities.
IMHO we don't need any more billionaires
like the Koch Bros when peeps are losing their homes
and sleeping in their cars or storm drains.

GTG my stiff hands are freezing
found Final Score but not Mad Ruth.
until then..

40-100 Billion US$ last i heard,amount the Mubarak Family stole, excuse me Mubarak Crime Family.

Jerry THE BUTCHER Brown,Guv KALIpornia, has let it slip that the Real reason he decided to impose Austerity Measures,see Death Panels, atop the boides of the poor,frail elderly,children and disabled is cuz he,and his advisers, decided that since Citizens United by The Supremes the corps would sluice cash into/against any proposed tax measures he put on the ballot.

*there,paused to ReBoot and thump my olde PC and its purring like a mute kitty,where was i?

KALIpornia..DAN WALTERS a longtime reporter for Sacto sez that The Butcher is playing Chess with peeps lives hoping the Courts and fedgov Sec.Sibeliius will thwart any moves of his long enuff to extend taxes on a June Ballot..two reasons this is bad
1.The Butcher ain't as smart as he thinks he is.lived in Oakland when was Mayor,i know.
2. there is already talk of suicide on crip listservs if some of the sh*t he proposes passes both Houses, which is very likely (see SHOCK DOCTRINE). O BOMBER has shown lil use for the disenfranchised (sic) and he needs a Billion from the usual Elites for 20102.

ON WISCOSIN!
look closely at the Naked Greedhead Face of Capitalism-
we the workers and unions and any flimsy facade that remains
of Democracy are about to be thrown under the bus
"First they came for the Jews..."
they very fabric of the US Myth/Matrix we live is coming apart
while some GOP /Blue Dogs assholes are still denying Climate Cahnge and
whatever other reality is impinging upon their five martini lunch and hookers & blow.

SIGH.
i want to weep but i was raised
like a Gladiator in Harlem, NYC
so i will fight until my last breath
here or in Gitmo, it matters not which,
since both are virtual prisons..

weep for your country you Patriots (Patriot Act Extensions allowing)
weep for the gilded dream which was US Democracy, it was noble but faux
just scan the bodies of the exploited dead which carpet the fetid landscape
of Reagan's Shining City on a Hill.

THE AK 47
i have seen videos where an AK 47 has been submerged in a swamp for a week or month then tapped to clear the breech and worked perfectly.have seen vids of an AK $& assembled from crude parts from several ex-'commie' countries and it worked perfectly.have seen more vids about the AK 47 and it modern cousin the AK 74 and.....well,you get the idea.

the M-16
this finicky fastidious lil darling has been killing troops since Viet Nam, unfortunately many of the troops wore the Stars & Stripes, just as recent articles recount more jammed M 16 fatalities in the bloody wars of Iraqistans. the M-16 must be kept pristine lets its delicate innards malfunction, no such time for this during a fir fight in an arid gritty dusty land...so i was first puzzled then concerned that DARPA ia looking to upgrade the M-16 for "future conflicts"..read Somalia & Yemen where the Special Ops folks are already chomping at the bit for a "winnable war'(sic)...SIGH.
its not like we're in the middle of a Great Recession or something
and need trillions to rebuild our beleaguered aging Empire or anything.,

context is Egypt. electronic "kill switch" (see prior blog Frakking D.P.I.)

"...American lawmakers are pushing to give the White House this very same power
(ironically , Republican Sen.Susan Collins of Maine,together with Sen.Joe Lieberman, the Connecticut independent ,floated the idea of an "Internet kill switch"  bill on the same day the Egyptian government shutdown its networks.)If the United States-which has spent the last year championing "Internet freedom"-thinks that an "Internet kill switch" does not present a fundamental threat to it, dictators have nothing to fear."

FRAKKING D.P.I.

aloha 2u,
as promised it was Beach Weather here yesterday, the temps on my sunny front porch hit 78.
while i,bone tired and exhausted slept off and on for about 17 hours and missed all the Bikini Moms traipsing around on nearby beachs..sigh.

PEAK OIL BITES
according to everything i have read and seen domestic Oil Supplies peaked about the Carter admin then we hit the North Slope of Alaska and started exploiting the environmentally toxic tar sands of Canada.now, from the same technocrats who brouiht us the BP Oil Spill Disaster comes HYDRAULIC FRACTURING (aka Frakking) wherein steam under high pressures and a devils brew of untold properitary chemicals are pumped deep into the earth to release hitherto too expensive to exploit natural gas and shale oils.sounds like No Big right?
um, only one teensy tiny problemo, to reach this dirty extractive resource one first must punch thru a potable (drinkable) water aquifer which is then tainted as one draws this liquid gold out.how bad is this you may ask? in the docu GASLAND ,now playing in rotation on HBO and excerpts of which were shown on Democracy Now in 2010, a man lights his tap water on fire..and a woman in Colorado can watch her grass burn in the field...is this any concern to Big Oil,of course not. therer has been some testimony in Congress and a few feeble attempts at addressing the problem but as of yet lil or nothing has been done. HUGE MUDDY SIGH.

as i may have mentioned the Pentagon has been War Gaming for a decade that the next battles will be fought over resources,mostly water, see the Bantustan-ization process in Israel/Palestine where all those new Zionist Settlements are atop the local aquifers,check it out.

EGYPT D.P.I.
ever wonder how the Egypt fedgov killed cell phone and Internet access overnite? once again Al Jazeera on the spot, a company in nearby Sunnyvale (Silicon Valley) named NARUS (owned by the war profiteer BOEING) makes something called a DEEP PACKET INSPECTION gizmo thingy which sits atop trunk router junctions and can kill all traffic with a single switch,it can also stop or track all cell phone traffic and "geo locate" (via GPS chip?) each and every cell phone user...so far these units have been sold to Egypt,Saudi Arabia,India and Qatar.willing to bet China has back engineered this tech and that the NSA has been running it for awhile as it is NOT YET ILLEGAL TO DO SO HERE..long fedgov monitored sigh.

PROPS TO GOOGLE for helping Twitter and Facebook re-connect in Egypt.and those of u who wonder while i rant on and on about SYNCHRONICITY and the Terminator Scenario, if the peeps who devised Twit & FB ever imagine their goods would help foment revolutionary change in the Middle East?as usual our tech outpaces our imaginations and legislation..THE LAW OF UNEXPECTED CONSEQUENCES...sigh.

we are All EYPGTIANS

aloha 2u,
i am bone deep tired so this will probably be short.
1. the Hosni Mubabrak family is worth,according to AlJazeera News, 30 BILLION US$
so when you hear the quote about how "tired" he is after 62 years of Public Service think of his 30 BN reasons to hang on, property in Europe and the USA plus Swiss bank accounts etc etc.  Sigh

2. 'MAVERICK JOHN McCain" (that old fool) was speechifying on BBC News where he compared apples and sheep about a Khomeni style Islamic takeover of Egypt,like most of US diplomacy (sic) he is fighting and losing the last wars while the future runs like wildfire around him.
if you have had time to pay attention u will note that McCain and Mubarak are parroting the same logic "apres moi le deluge"....the local fishwrap has also aped the Party Line that DEMOCRACY IS UNSTABLE AND YOU CAN'T LET THE RABBLE RULE THEMSELVES..as i said WE ARE ALL EGYPTIANS.
"Justice"Scalia sez we have NO Constituional right to have our votes counted, Bush V.Gore decided by The Supremes, the FBI spying on peace groups, "freedom zones" for protests, the DEA in our medicine cabinets,TSA in our privates, Homeland Security monitoring out thot crimes,the NSA et al monitoring our phone calls and Internet...why are we NOT in our own Liberation Square?

3. i had a third point..oh right, the MSM (main stream media) we are kept def,dumb and blind by 5 corporations who are the Shadow fedgov US, we arwe swaddled in a confection of lies and delusions.we are sheeple ready to be shorn for the slaughter.hear them sharpening the blade now? listen closely.do u hear it?

CINDERALLA 8

"Don't get the impression that you arouse my anger.You see,one can only get angry with those he respects." Richard M.Nixon (see Watergate coup)

aloha 2u,
a short book revue as i only heard a portion of the radio interview for
"CINDERALLA ATE MY DAUGHTER "(sic)
a book about raising dottirs versus MSM bias.this reminds me of a recent online argueent i had with The Mirage over wimmins labia, don'tknow how it started,The Mirage prefers the bare smooth Barbie Look whereas i prefer the droopy extruded porn named  "beef flaps" look.this actually gets to the whole problem of
1.body image-unrealistic expectations
2.crippled self esteem (see above)
3.malignant narcissism-the Beauty industry
4.female beauty as a performance -porn & fashion models
5.retail therapy-as bonding and insatiable appetite creations

take LOST or BSG i much preferred the natural freckled tousled
Evangeline Lily or Grace Park to the tarted up whorish garish make up
MSM Hollywood demands.
if you are constantly dieting,starving your self into PERFECTION....sigh
you become a SEX IN THE CITY hungry ghost retail omnivore .

a man has to DO (make or create wealth and status)
whereas a woman has to BE
like a beautiful Venus Flytrap waiting for her Prince
or James Dean or Johnny Depp to notice her
 and transform, her into a Princess
( & make all her dreams come true, which leads
to the inevitable disappointment,
much like male sex fantasies or fetishes).
the author blamedd DISNEY for relentlessly manufacturing
this Material Girl confection of G rated films, TV channels,
Miley Cyorus Demi Lovato faux purity for tweens
to emulate via retail absorption and the Barbie Standard of
Ideal Beauty (fake plastic boobs and no brain?)
"PRETTY" is an illusion inside a riddle inside a myth.
cosmetic surgery and Photoshop
are also culprits in this conspiracy.

IMHO this was the meat of Feminism
be your own warrior and make your own terms
for partnership, love,children and duty.
once again we seem to have lost our way..
the Untied Snakes of Amnesia reigns on our dreams.
SM has mentioned wimmin who CANNOT BE ALONE-EVER
(see CO DEPENDENCY) like a gaggle of mall rats or wimmin
always on their cell phones to BFF gal pals.
there is a diff, untaught, between LONELINESS & SOLITUDE.
born alone, die alone, live in fear?

WE DO NOT NEED ANYONE TO "COMPLETE" US
WE ARE BORN WHOLE & NAKED.

 i am fat, i accept that but want to become less fat for health & longevity reasons
NOT cuz i want to look like hunky 63 year stud as seen on recent weight loss commercials.
I WANT TO BECOME A SLIMMER "ME".
MEN,WHO HAVE THE pOWER, DO NOT SUFFER
THE SAME BODY IMAGE ISSUES-(SEE rON jEREMY,PORN LEGEND)

wimmin, like slaves,seek to please those who hold the whip hand.
altho i love THOSE WHO KNOW my crip BFF in Hawaii..
as a white male Republican
he doesn't get it.
his humor would be offensive to most gays,blax,browns and
wimmin..yes i realize he often trys to push my buttons but still underneath
he worships Reagan,hates Welfare Queens & The Nanny State
down to his core values.
I WILL NEVER CHANGE HIM NOR HIM ME.
when u can argue about the politcal implications
of female nudity and porn
it is bone(r )deep indeed.

during the 08 election i predicted that O BOMBER
would beat HILLARY for the nomination as,among men,
sexism ran deepr than racism.
bless her heart, SM thot i was being too too pessimistic..sigh.

SHARKING ET AL

 "To achieve harmony in bad taste is the height of elegance." 
                           -Jean Genet,famous playwright/degenerate

aloha 2u  again today,
THOSE WHO KNOW has chided me once again
about "sharking", NOW WHAT? i ask.

SCENARIO
say u live in Japan, korea or KALIpornia and you are a
cash poor female. you see an innocous ad online
or in your local fishwrap or free weekly...

WANTED PRETTY WIMMIN 18-35
for Nude & Non Nude Photo shoots.
Camera Club, NO SEX. FONE #....

U CALL AND A FEMALE VOICE ANSWERS, 
YES ITS LEGIT AND COULD YOU LEAVE
YOUR # AND MAYBE MEET AT A PARK OR BUS STOP
SO THEY CAN SEE YOU IN NATURAL LIGHT AND
DISCUSS CASH, A GENEROUS OFFER IS HINTED AT.
SIGHS     (see Casting scams)

so you get dressed and go to the designated meeting place,
you get a phone call that they will be "late"
just a lil...
suddenly you are blindsided by one or two men
who ripped your clothes off, grope you violently
and spread your legs open wide..you attempt to scream,
expecting the worse then..just as suddenly they are gone,
along with your purse,shoes and all your clothes. WTF?

TWK points out this scenario can end in several ways..
1.if you're lucky you've just been publicly "sharked"...
2. you could wind up hooked on heroin and pimped out in Turkey,Detroit or Saudi Arabia
3.you could wind up prey to a gang of Serial Killers ,various cults or other White Slavers (sic)
4.one word..cannibals.

okay i ask, how did "sharking" evolve into this?
as usual TWK directed me to peruse a series
of website links..in this order
1.sharking- "skirt lift"
2.sharking -skirt lift,panties pulled down-hobbling the victim
3.sharking-  no panties (rumors have these staged?)
4.sharking -"skirt steal" wherein the skirt is ripped away and stolen
5.sharking-"bikini strip" wherein solo girls in string tie
                 bikinis are stripped naked and suits dropped 10-20 feet away
6.sharking -staged events,apparently this looked too phony plus the girls
                 were paid,clothes are taken and not returned.
7.sharking-scenario above,no pay as its a public place

in several vid clips the victims are left naked in a fetal
position crying hysterically.in one a female offers a cloak and a ride home...
the female accomplice?

when exactly did the fine line from abuse to assault to psychic rape get crossed?
maybe even domestic terrorism?
ALL THIS FOR THE PURPOSE OF MALE PERVERSITY?
sigh then cry?
would wimmin do anything this intensely fukt up?
methinks NOT.
i won't even dignity the Category of RAPE & BRUTAL
vid clips on the same sites..sheeesh.

either we placate Israel and its interests or we bow to the thwarted will

SHAMELESS

"ANAL SEX." (long pause)
There, now that i've gotten everyone's attention,
lets talk about the internal structure of haiku and Zen koans." Ho Chi Zen,smartass

aloha 2u,
been watching bleary eyed the wall to wall coverage of the "Uprising in Egypt" (sic)
the FEEL GOOD STORY OF 20111,so far.

ANAL SEX
when The Mirage was younger she had lots of sex, mostly with married men.she told me the "trick" for ending the affair/fling was in giving them what they Really wanted, other than a lil Strange...."give them anal sex and they stopping booty calling ya."  the TRICK involved was, in those days, The Mirage actually LIKED ANAL SEX. when her first legally wed hubby The Manchild found this out he would "punish" her by denying this request...sigh. whatever my many  faults in that marriage, this was NOT one of them...

SHAMELESS
if you have been following this new tragicomic series SHAMELESS on Showtime you will have noted the role anal sex, often with a huge veiny dildo,plays among the main characters, both gay and straights.
another SHOW series EPISODES follows the exploits and tribulations of exporting a Brit series to US TV.
in this case they did it right, as evidenced by SUNDANCE running the Brit original Shameless series with its gobsmackingly thick accents also on Sunday nites.

what i also noticed as i contemplated blogging about this is the
non apologetic non judgmental approach to the female libido
among the working poor, authentic as seen thru my eyes
via my Harlem childhood..wimmin can be aggressive or fickle
or bitchy  BUT so can men.more Real than most tv IMHO...sigh,
now that Dexter's wife Rita is dead.

the struggle for SURVIVAL is utmost and the carnal
pleasures of life are sandwiched in between the daily
struggles to make ends meet. if you have never missed a meal
or slept on a sidewalk or hitched across america u might tend to
look down your nose at these chrracters but u would would
be missing a rich tapestry of emotions and experiences.

this is the CLASS STRUGGLE..TO SURVIVE with a smidgen of dignity,at least.
some of it is a trifle far fetched but true in this context, i will leave that for u to decide.

SKINS ON MTV
i watched and semi enjoyed 3 seasons of SKINS on BBC America with nary a trace of outrage
or notice from the outside world,now after merely 2 episodes on MTV it is raising a stinky furor over the concept that TEENAGERS ARE HORNY DRUG ABUSERS,really? the Concept of Childhood is a fairly recent invention of the Middle Class, before that children were merely undersized adults.children are Curious about Everything and constantly experimenting with everything they can get their grubby lil hands on.
WOLF GIRL enjoyed, so she said, sex with her father until she got older and worried about pregnancy..KIM masturbated herself to sleep in her crib with her teddy bear and probably still does...my Mother was a screamer which roused my curiosity early, or maybe i'm just "oversexed"?  sigh.

what if SHAMELESS or SKINS portrayed sex from a purely black viewpoint with the depression and racism and battering dignity robbing cops too? just a thot sigh....remember ROOTS and how topfree black wimmin were okay on ABC TV  but NOT a white breast or nipple? then JANET JACKSON'S SUPER BOWL "WARDROBE MALFUNCTION" NIPPLE SHIELD u woulda thot Society itself was endangered...sigh and shuddery,ROME I was less hypocritical.

i'm just saying...

BOTTOMS UP?
