Interesting TV Shows: "The Fidel Castro Tapes" on PBS ...and... "The Windsors" on CNN - Hours of Real Film of Castro With English Subtitles... The History of England During WW1 up to WW2

For Example: I did not know that King George the Fifth of England, Wilhelm of Germany and Czar Nickolas were Cousins and They All Looked Like Twins.  George V Refused to Allow Czar Nicholas to Flee to England with his Family after the Russian Revolution and so All the Romanovs Died...

The Fidel Castro Tapes has Films of Him Doing TV Interviews Before the Revolution in Cuba with Ernesto "Che" Guevara... Then they Show a Hero's Welcome Parade in New York City with Thousands of Americans Cheering Fidel... and Castro Meeting Vice President Richard Nixon... and Actual Film of Soldiers Invading Cuba at The Bay of Pigs.... They Show Film of Castro at Every Age All the Way to His Funeral and Raul Castro, His Brother Becoming Leader... With English Subtitles... Fascinating...

In 1959, Fidel Castro rose to power in Cuba. He has been one of the most controversial figures in the world ever since. This is the story of the Cuban dictator's turbulent career, told in part through media reports, rare images and recordings.

The Episode I Saw of "The Windsors" was Mostly About England in the Era of World War One thru the Late 1930's. King George the Fifth CHANGED HIS NAME from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor to avoid The English People's Hatred of Germans... after all, there was a War Going on and British Boys were Killing Germans. He took the name from the Castle that his Family was Living In.   

His Son, Edward the Eighth, Did Not Want to Do the Formal Work of Being Monarch and Spent his Time Traveling the Globe talking to Subjects and Trying to Convince then that Having an English Man as King was a Great Idea... Eventually, he failed completely and there were Revolutions in India, Australia, Canada, Africa and Asia... Edward fell in love with a Married American Woman, Wallis Simpson. She got divorced and They Got Married BUT... The English People Insisted that he STOP BEING KING if he wanted to Marry her... So he abdicated the Throne... Difficult to Believe... but That's what life was like in 1936...

Lucy Sky Diamonds - psychedelic ART by gvan42 Gregory Vanderlaan
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds 

This morning during my dawn hike, I noticed a Chirping sound way up high. I could not see any Bats but there was an Undeniable Three Dimensional Sound in the Sky.

 I have experienced this before during the Seventeen (17) year Cicadas in Rock Creek Park located in Washington DC... In what has to be the most bizarre life cycle ever, animals like grasshoppers are born, mate and then the eggs go back into the earth. Seventeen Years Later, animals like grasshoppers are born, mate and then the eggs go back into the earth. If you ever wondered about the Meaning of Life... this has got to make you wonder... WHY?

This is a Sign! GO!


I'm watching a show on The HOPE Channel about the Life cycle of the Eastern Monarch Butterfly. They live in Canada and the American Midwest Eating Milkweed... Milkweed has a Poison that makes Caterpillars and Butterflies TASTE BAD... Helping them survive... In the Fall, they all fly to Mexico...  It's Too damn Cold in Canada... 300 Million go to the Same Place... To a place with a Magnetic Anomaly where there are a Lot of Heavy Metals. A specific forest about 70 miles west of Mexico City... 10,000 feet above sea level. and they go to the same place every year even though NONE OF THEM HAD BEEN THERE BEFORE. This is a different flock of butterflies than the ones that Live North of Santa Cruz... At Natural Bridges State Park... I have a appreciation for butterflies because that entire "Thing" of changing from a Caterpillar into a Butterfly is a Classic LSD Experience... Later, the Butterflies Leave Mexico and Go Back to Canada... and Around and Around and Around we go... I have a special fondness for all living things. I can see that we are all brothers and sisters... I don't feel much kinship for rocks... Mostly I experience a Realization that Trees, Cats, Dogs, Bears, Dolphins and Green Slime are all members of My Family. GAIA is the Most Logical Religion for Me... Yes, I love Bacon and Hamburgers but... It's unlikely that lunch will lead to their extinction... Maybe it's a survival strategy that blesses the Sacred Cow... More Chickens live in the USA than People... We go out of our way to feed Cows and Make sure they have a nice warm barn for chilly weather... The final conclusion of The HOPE Channel is that the Life cycle of the Monarch Butterfly is so bizarre that it cannot be explained using Darwin's Theory of Evolution... Only God could do this... Could BE True, but Not Likely NOR SIGNIFICANT... What IF we Never figure out the Origin of Life, we STILL should stop Killing Things for Corporate Profit. Then that show was over and they started saying that Jesus is the ONLY WAY... and by Definition... all those OTHER Religions are Like, Totally BOGUS... and it's a Small Step to Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition and all that Killing that Christians and Muslims do... GEE HAAAAAAD! and the Atheist, Buddhists, Hindus, Devotees of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and Zoroastrians all wonder what's wrong with these people?

Big Daddy in the Sky watching Over Us...


In other news, There is a Grasshopper Infestation in Las Vegas. That is really like a Biblical Plague out of the Old Testament... It doesn't take much imagination to conclude that we are in the "End Times" predicted in the Book of Revelations. Notice the GREEN SLIME in the Gulf of Mexico... In the Bible, the Nile turned into a river of Blood... Well, this time it's a Different Color... I remember the Story of Noah... God flooded the world and Gave Noah the SIGN of the Rainbow promising that there would Never Be another Flood... Well, IT'S FIRE THIS TIME... Especially in the Arctic... Alaska, Northern Canada and Siberia are experiencing vast wildfires releasing MEGATONS of Carbon... and HEAT itself... So, the air pollution will increase Global Warming, and MELT the Permafrost... releasing Methane... and Around and Around and Around we go... 

on a different subject... I was wondering...

WHAT IF the people that make and sell weapons simply got a different job? It is possible to earn a living without Causing Disaster. Look within and realize that real eyes see thru real lies... "They" tell you that you need a gun for safety... to protect your Family... In fact, having a gun in the house makes you less safe. Increase in Suicide, Increase in Gun Accidents, Increase in One Family Member Shooting Another During an Argument... all those fatalities are greater that the lives saved by defending your family from the So Called "Bad Guys." Does anyone really believe that we need guns so that we can fight the Government in the case of Excessive Oppression? That plan always fails... Ruby Ridge, WACO... The Government has More and Better Weapons and a Citizens Militia has NO Freaking Chance... I think it's all Marketing by Weapons Manufacturers to Sell More Guns... Especially the Big Ones like Lockheed and Raytheon... Now that ESPER is the Secretary of Defense, all of a Sudden His "former" Corporation, Raytheon is Bidding on a New and Improved Death Machine... Well, Isn't that Special... and tRUMP just Vetoed a Bill preventing the USA from selling weapons to Saudi Arabia, the people that Caused 9/11... There is no possible way that the War in Yemen is a Threat to the Safety of the USA... It's Just a way for Lockheed to Sell more Stuff... and if Those People Over There Die, THAT'S Not our problem... WHAT IF the people that make and sell weapons simply got a different job?

I have found that it's better to NOT be a part of the Military Industrial Complex. I did Evil for a Living for about SIX Years working for the Pentagon as a Defense Contractor... Then, one time when I got Laid off, I took a NON-DEFENSE job... and Never worked in the Weapons Business Again. It was an accidental career change but.... It Worked...

Did you Notice that Police Suicide has increased in New York... and France... What is going on? Is the Brainwashing wearing off and reality sneaking into their consciousness? and they don't like what they see???

A better Plan is to WAKE UP! It's Fun, It's Free and Everybody's Doing It! I have noticed that there is a groundswell of Internet Based Peace Activists... The Shift Network... The Aware Show on Television... Black Lives Matter... The "Never Again" Students from Parkland High School where Children were Murdered by an Insane Gunman... Bioneers... Democracy NOW! TV News... OCCUPY... ACT OUT! People protesting in the Streets of Moscow, Venezuela, Puerto Rico and Hong Kong... Extinction Rebellion... Bernie Sanders... Bill McGibbon and the 350.org... Greta Thunberg and Children refusing to ignore Climate Change... It's a TREND... Remember, every time you fill up your gas tank you are (in effect) strangling Greta... A simpler way is to stop all that driving around... and ESPECIALLY stop Flying in Jet Airplanes. Those things are Ecological Disasters... Is it a "Strange Coincidence" that Boeing is having trouble selling their 737 Max Airplanes? For Safety's Sake... Don't Fly... Could it be that The Universe is Trying to GET OUR ATTENTION? Could THAT be what's Going ON?

2020 Is clearly the end of the Republicrime Party. Old White Men are going to have a very difficult time winning any elections due to the fact that MOST VOTERS are NOT Old White Men. It's the Dawn of A New Age, People!

Quality of life declines under Republicrime rule... Still no Construction on Infrastructure... Wages decline, Costs Increase... Tax Cut for the Rich Law FAILS to help Middle Class and Poor People.

Americans all across the USA are Waking Up. It's all part of the Global Dump Trump Movement. Did you notice that we are moving towards a Monarchy with Czar Donald the First leading the way?

https://www.vox.com/polyarchy/2017/9/22/16345194/republican-party-pathological
Yes, the Republican Party has become pathological. But why?
We’re not going to fix American democracy until we can explain why the GOP went crazy.

One reason Trump Loves Putin and Everything Russian is that he Owes Them The Election. They Teamed up to Defeat Hillary. Without Putin Helping, Trump would have lost.


Donald Trump Sounds Just Like the Monarch the Constitution Was Written to Thwart... The impeachment power was established to address presidents who assert kingly powers to abuse pardons and shut down inquiries into their own wrongdoing.

https://www.thenation.com/article/donald-trump-sounds-just-like-monarch-constitution-written-thwart/

 In the summer of 1787, George Mason told the authors of the Constitution that “no point is of more importance than that the right of impeachment should be continued.”

To the framers who had only recently thrown off the rule of King George III, Mason explained that this was the answer to the question that challenged a new nation that did not choose to be a monarchy: “Shall any man be above Justice? Shall any man be above Justice? Above all shall that man be above it, who can commit the most extensive injustice?”

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood...

The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.


During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "The Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was...
