Regarding the Corridor video.........

For some reason I wasn't able to add text below the video.........so here is what I have to say about The Corridor. I accidentally ran across the video while doing some searching for old Bee Gees stuff. Lo and behold the video for The Corridor caught my eye........who is this guy and why did he show up in a Bee Gees search?.......that was the question........not to mention that I thought this Francis Edwards dude looked alot like George Carlin................It turns out that Edwards is an Australian singer whose career was stopped short when he was drafted and sent to Vietnam. He had a contract with the same management as the Bee Gees and who knows what kind of career he could have had. He has quite a story and his mission in life today, apparently is to help Vietnam war veterans......particularly the homeless ones..........now you know the idea behind the song The Corridor.

Enjoy.

Not Everything Is Impossible

Sometimes it seems that everything goes wrong.........or doesn't work right........or that some thing will never happen. It is very frustrating. You try and try and try and try and you just know that sooner or later...............

BAM!

You can't win if you don't play.
Sometimes you have to risk it all.

Isn't that true about many things?

In this case, while playing the Invaders From The Planet Moolah slot machine at Charles Town Races & Slots, I went for the gusto.......maximum bets (which I only do occasionally) and proceeded to generate a warm and fuzzy feeling all over my own self...........which also happened to attract a horde of Mexicans who stood there watching in disbelief that a natural born citizen of the USA had any luck at all.......hehehe...........when I looked over my shoulder all I could do was say "Watch and enjoy, amigos!"

Speaking of Charles Town Races & Slots..................what is up with the number of immigrants that are hanging out there? Droves and droves of them......the majority are Mexican and there are quite a few Orientals as well. It is like being in a foreign country........no.....I take that back........the last time I was in Mexico I encountered more English speaking people than in Charles Town, WV. It's true.

I have another peeve about Charles Town Races & Slots............what is up with the continual barrage of public address system paging of every Mexican in the place? Geeeeeessshhhhh!
"Will Hector Rodrigo Jose Esteban Parades Pedro Jorge Gonzales Hernandez please meet the rest of your party at the security desk?" There are so many pages that it would be a better idea to just announce the names of people that do NOT need to meet up with the rest of their party. Maybe this is a cultural thing.......I just do not get it.

Okay.......so back to the slot machine...............

Moooooooooo!

Al Gore Phone Home!

I don't believe it is possible to have been alive for the past few days and not have heard the news about recent events that were startling enough to have been an excerpt from the Book of Revelation. No..........the image of Signtopia did not hover in the sky frightening thousands of people and causing chaos.

Surely you must have seen reports about something else in the sky.............a bright light......a fireball.........something went over the horizon.............hmmmmm....it wasn't me........so what was it? From what I have read, no reports offer up any serious assessment or solid answers. Surely you know that we have some very high tech abilities to analyze, inspect, and watch over our skies. Radar, doppler, NORAD, the entire military, telescopes.....etc......etc......you get the picture, right?

But NO.......we ain't getting any picture. All we have is some film from a cop car camera and the like. Is it possible for something to zip across our airspace and no pilot sees it? Is it possible for NORAD not to have seen it and tracked it and know where it hits? Is it possible that absolutely no scientists or astronomers seen this coming? Is it possible that there may be something going on that "they" may not be telling us? I don't know about you, but to me this is HUGE.

Contrails........right? And those contrails are not from the large bright light. They are from something else.Look at the photo above............that's a huge bright light in the sky, yes..........and we don't know what it is...............but look at what else is in the picture. I see two streaks.......don't you? Okay.........if those are from jet airliners........then those pilots would have had quite a look at what went zipping past them at an extraordinary speed. If those contrails are from something military........a fighter jet or two.......then they know what it is. If those contrails are from shot at whatever caused the bright light we may never know. Either way it is a mystery and it boggles my mind that all we can come up with is some speculation about it. That alone, is scary. Norad can track Santa Claus but it missed something real......go figure.............we all need to worry about this.

But here is something explainable..................biblical proportions of ash spewing forth from a volcano in Iceland. Such proportions that flights had to be cancelled all over Europe.......and this is just from one measly volcano. Imagine the impact...........stuff like this is what caused mini ice-ages throughout the history of the planet...........and this isn't because of something humans do or might do and even continue to do. Stuff like this must make the Goracle toss and turn and night and slap Tipper with a stack of Parental Advisory stickers. So where is Al Gore while all of this is happening?

Al Gore (The Goracle) never seems to talk about this stuff.......and it is those things such as natural occurring volcanic activity and earthquakes that should be worried about. Does Al Gore take up the cause and plead for people to stop living on fault lines? Does he beg for us to not fly in planes because a meteor or some unknown object might hit us? No.......he doesn't.

As huge as the volcano eruption in Iceland is and the impact it will and does have on our planet............it is minor league. Even worse is the caldera that is brewing at Yellowstone. Surely you have heard about that.........right? If you haven't heard........just Google it and educate yourself................you will be amazed. The image shown above is a small indication of just how active the caldera has been. Each dark speck......and there are thousands of them.......are earthquakes. Shocking isn't it?

So where is the Goracle?............maybe Al Gore should phone home.

April Fools Day

Okay.......I know it's been several days since I last posted on the blog.........I simply chose not to do so even though there has been much to write about. After some nearly deep consideration, I figured I would keep the majority of stuff that I would write.......to myself.......and thus probably keep from getting on some anti-government blacklist...........oh......and lest anyone think it is not possible or probable, I DO know the locations of everyone that reads this blog.......and Washington DC comes up often........so there. Don't take that as me being paranoid in any way shape or form.......I am not........but surely you must know by now that I have absolutely no trust in the US government and the thugs that run it. Oh well......I am getting off into a rant of which I have been avoiding so I will get a grip and resist and get back to the April Fools thang.

Happy April Fools Day everybody. What better day than to recognize and give kudos to President Obama..........after all........he sure does know how to round up and capitalize on every fool in the United States.......from now on he should always be remembered as the Leader Of Fools. Without any doubt, we are all going down the tubes. On a side note........go figure that the government deadline for us to turn in our census forms is April 1st........how appropriate.

Also, it probably is no coincidence that April Fools Day this year comes right after the day that Jehovah's Witnesses attend their annual ritual of rejecting the symbolic flesh and blood of Jesus Christ.....known as "the Memorial"..........what a bunch of fools.

So here is to all of the Fools............don't you feel all warm and fuzzy?
