INTERESTING: What do you do at 4am?
Wednesday, March 14, 2007When you wake up out of sound sleep, wide awake, like a “disturbance in the Force”, like some one has walk over your grave, or when something bad has happened and your intuition is telling you to go on high alert.
What do you do?
Blog.

ALUMNI: An idea for a real time Jasper news wire
Wednesday, March 14, 2007I woke up in the wee hours with my next great idea. A real time Jasper news wire. Born out of my computer troubles, it has always been my thought to have an easy way to assemble my weekly ezine more easily. So why not use a wordpress blog, and just “stitch” it together for the weekly readers. It would allow that fellow to only see the sections he was interested in. Have to noodle that about. But I like the idea. Real time Jasper feed.

GUNS: Only armed citizens can resist tyrannical government.
Tuesday, March 13, 2007http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul374.html
The DC Gun Ban
by Ron Paul
***Begin Quote***
Gun control historically serves as a gateway to tyranny. Tyrants from Hitler to Mao to Stalin have sought to disarm their own citizens, for the simple reason that unarmed people are easier to control. Our Founders, having just expelled the British army, knew that the right to bear arms serves as the guardian of every other right. This is the principle so often ignored by both sides in the gun control debate. Only armed citizens can resist tyrannical government.
***End Quote***
You have to like the fellow who understands the basic principle.
Governments kill unarmed citizens.
Look at Nazi Germany. Envision what would have happened when the Nazis came to collect the Jews. Even if at each apartment, the Nazis only lost ONE thug. You’d need a whole supply of new thugs. As an example look at what a handful of starving doomed people did with SIX guns and a lot of guts. The held off divisions for weeks. That’s a fifth generation war (i.e., the people against “their” government)! It’s not hard to imagine it today. Look at some of the Hollywood movies. It’ll be deadly, ugly, and bloody. But the people can never be defeated! Temporarily subjugated, maybe for decades, but never defeated.

LIBERTY: I do NOT consent!

Do You Dubai?
by Karen Kwiatkowski
***Begin Quote***
In his second inaugural address only a few years ago, curious George asked this question: “Did our generation advance the cause of freedom? And did our character bring credit to that cause?” The jury is still out on the first question, if only because George W. Bush and Dick Cheney are inadvertently creating new libertarians at an unprecedented rate. However, the mainstream media’s breathless reporting from Washington and Houston confirms the answer to the second.
***End Quote***
One can only hope that this gives Ron Paul a fighting chance. If they are creating libertarians, that’s good for America. Not so good for all those who suckle at the government. I think there are two Americas. The American of the producers and the America of the takers. Sorry but the golden age of taking is coming to a close. The takers have killed the golden goose. This cow is tired of being milked. While I can’t go to New hampshire as part of the Free State project http://www.freestateproject.org/ … … yet. I can arrange my affairs such that I minimize the amount that can be taken. The TSA infringes rights at airports; I don’t fly. The keystone NYC cops search unreasonably; I drive in. The income tax is oppressive; I don’t strive to earn more. In sum and substance, I avoid interacting with the various criminal gangs masquerading under the guise of government. It’s a fifth generation war. The people against “their” own gooferment. It’s not mine. I do NOT consent.

Michigan State Lawmaker Wants to Legalize NCAA Basketball Office Pools
Monday, March 12, 2007
*** begin quote ***
LANSING, Mich. — Filling out your NCAA basketball brackets?
If there’s cash involved, technically you’re breaking the law in Michigan.
*** end quote ***
Where’s the victim? Where’s the coercion? Where’s the harm?
Yup, the gooferment didn’t get it’s cut! That’s why it’s illegal.
Gambling is immoral except when the gooferment gets a cut.
The lottery is called a tax on stupidity because the biggest winner is the gooferment.
Argh!

MONEY: Social Security Integration .., biz’s claims can confuse
Monday, March 12, 2007http://www.aarpmagazine.org/money/Articles/

***Begin Quote***
Learn the secret lingo
The first phrase you need to commit to memory is “Social Security integration.” Yeah, it’s a doozy. Say it out loud several times so you don’t forget. The phrase signifies that your company uses a tricky formula to calculate your pension that in effect mingles projected Social Security earnings with your company benefit to make your future look rosier than it really is. “It can be completely devastating,” says Hotz. For example, if your pre-retirement company statement tells you you’re going to get, say, $1,000 a month as a pension, and Social Security tells you you’re going to get $1,000 a month, you may logically conclude that you’ll get $2,000 a month to live on. Instead, with Social Security integration, you could be looking at $1,500, since pension pay is reduced by up to 50 percent of the amount of Social Security you receive. About half of all companies use Social Security integration.
***End Quote***
Wow! That’s a new one on me. Seems unfair to claim credit for social security, which one may never get, may be taxable, and could really make it harder to know where you stand.
Argh!
