The Survival Rule of 3’s

As we draw ever closer to the, engineered, global economic meltdown, I thought it might me a good idea to share a good survival strategy. It is one that I learned many years ago. It is simple philosophy for surviving in a crisis. It is my observation that most people don’t have a plan for [...]

Does Pro Wrestling Imitate Real Life, or Does Real Life Imitate Pro Wrestling?

I attended my first wrestling event as an infant. Of course, I don’t remember much about it, being such a young age, but the folks talked about it for years. It was in the town of Robertsdale Alabama, a brawl broke out, and a local policeman, caught up in the excitement, hit one of the [...]

Chasing the Dragons

  I first learned of dragons when my uncle sent me on a mission to a land of morning calm. I would peer through the twisted steel and razors at an ancient and ornate temple that sat above the rice paddies and the happy mountains of the dead. As my curiosity grew I would venture [...]

The 1974 reconciliation method is the perfect vehicle to [...]

Introduction to the Beer Party

  The Tea Party movement has been co-opted by the Neo-Cons, and the controlled opposition, The Coffee Party, has it’s roots in the Obama White House. So, what is a patriot to do? Join the Beer Party! No, it isn’t the 1970’s idea of the two party system; party all day, party all night. It [...]

I Am Boycotting the Super Bowl

Our nation, and the entire western world, are in deep trouble. The United States of America is bankrupt. It is bankrupt morally, and financially. There is no doubt in my mind, that there is not, so much as one, couch potato, in this country, that is even aware, the world’s central bankers have met in [...]
