The Corporations That OWN TV NEWS Stations Don't Want You to NOTICE That The ECONOMY IS A DISASTER. They Keep On Telling Everyone to Spend Spend Spend and IF You Have No Money - CHARGE IT!

IN REALITY, Wages Are Lower and Prices Are Higher... Massive Layoffs, Bankruptcies and Stores Closing... LOOK AT YOUR OWN SHOPPING MALL - EMPTY STORES EVERYWHERE.

TV NEWS Reports Exactly What Their Advertisers Want Them To Report. It's a Giant Infomercial... Keep On Consuming... Buying Plastic Crap Causes Ecstatic Dancing and BLISS!

BUT THEY KEEP ON TALKING ABOUT TRUMP'S BOOMING ECONOMY... as if it really existed! BUT IT DOESN'T EXIST!

99% of Americans are Worse Off Than We Were 3 Years Ago.

LOOK AT YOUR OWN FRIENDS AND FAMILY... TV NEWS is LYING TO YOU...

MASSIVE INCREASE IN HOMELESS TENT CITIES <--- Really Exist!

Photos and Story about Staying in the Fancy Hotel at Crater Lake, Oregon... It's like the hotel in "The Shining" Movie... and the Delightful Valley at the Base of the Mountain. (Fort Klamath)

Crater Lake Oregon on a Foggy Cold Day - photo taken from the Fancy Lodge - gvan42

After I retired I drove around and explored Oregon, Washington State, Nevada and Utah. At Crater Lake I stayed at an OLD Hotel that had a balcony overlooking the lake. The rooms did not have television because the hotel was a historic landmark refurbished to be like it was before the invention of TV. So I played with my digital camera taking pictures of printed materials distorted by the water in a drinking glass and drank tap water. It was very tasty because they just pump it out of the lake... So, I drank a Lot of that excellent water...

That night I had a very realistic dream where I thought that I was sleeping in my Van and I woke up in the middle of the night to urinate... I got out of my Van and stood by the side of it and took a piss. Then I realized that I was not outdoors in a campground but in a fancy hotel! I was worried that I had done harm to the rug in the hotel room and dreaded getting a huge bill... I was actually worried about this for hours because the dream was so realistic... I went back to sleep. When I awoke I could not find a wet spot on the carpet... I guess that I actually went into the bathroom while dreaming... Lucky Me! Auto-pilot saved the day.

So I went down to the Hotel's Desk and checked out. I walked out the front door and everything was covered with Ice. I could not walk to my car or drive it if I did get to it. So I went back into the Hotel, got some stationary and envelopes from the clerk and wrote letters to my family while sitting by the roaring fire. A lady sat next to me and said that her husband was considering moving from Buffalo, NY to Brookings, Oregon. I recommended that move highly and drew her a map of where the freeways and cities were in Oregon and Northern California. Then I ate a fine breakfast and by then, the ice had melted... So I drove around looking at the lake, parked and drew drawings in my sketchbook. I had been camping out in the van and had amused myself by drawing and listening to the radio. Great public radio stations in Southern Oregon broadcast from the University... Totally free station without corporate profits deciding what songs to play...

I tried to drive all the way home but felt too sleepy on Highway 101 near Crescent City. I stayed at a campground that looked a lot like the movie Jurassic Park- Lost World. There was a big meadow in the redwood forest. The next day I drove home.

Suppose You Had a Pressure Cooker Filled with Wine and a Long Hose Running Into A Tent... Put the Pressure Cooker on the Campfire and...

The Alcohol will Evaporate and Fill the Tent with Intoxicating Vapors and Hot Steam... Like a Sweat Lodge but With Booze... Might be Useful to Heat the Tent just before Bedtime...

Of Course you could fill the Pressure Cooker with Coffee, Tea or Water and Marijuana Leaves... Beef Stew... anything!

If You Filled it with Vodka AND Marijuana Leaves The Alcohol would act as a Different Solvent Than The Water... Releasing Different Chemicals...

I ALSO do not Trust the CIA and the FBI Just like Senator Ron Johnson. MKULTRA, COINTELPRO, Meese is a Pig, J Edgar Hoover's Blackmail Vault, Contra/Cocaine Import Agency, Air America, Banana Republic Coup de Etats, Installing Dictators Like Saddam Heussein and Mobutu, Extraordinary Rendition/Torture... AND ALL THOSE SECRET PROGRAMS THEY HAVE NOT TOLD US ABOUT...

During a heated interview on Sunday's "Meet The Press," Republican Senator Ron Johnson accused former members of the FBI and CIA of conspiring to frame President Trump. Host Chuck Todd fired back by calling Johnson's accusations "Fox News conspiracy propaganda stuff."

Main Circle, CALM Tent

Often, there is a divide between performer and audience...

It's better when the audience is the performer.

Last Summer at the Rainbow Gathering I lead "The Band" in a Group Sing-Along Song... "You Are My Sunshine". I was playing the harmonica randomly and as so often happens... all of a sudden I was playing that song... There was a child that was attracting attention to herself by giving away flowers to the group and I guess that was the inspiration... about 20 people were sitting in the big shady spot in the main meadow and there were many guitars, drums, violin and a saxophone... we sang many songs... and now THAT song is mine... with a pleasant memory. What is funny is that I was unable to get "The Band" to play "This Land is Your Land" by Woody Guthrie even though I tried to get them to play along three times... on three different days...

There was a momentary quiet at the Main Circle and I was playing a Big Bass Drum... Boom, Boom, Chick... Boom, Boom, Chick... and everyone ignored me... They could have played "We Will Rock You" byQueen but... Nothing... Go Figure...
