Now I really don't care that much. Will try to be home for Rachel, albeit I expect her and the rest to go away too. It is thought control...at least I got my radiio still...I don't know for how long. I miss KO.

1. I truly miss KO too. However, I will listen to the others though but with less enthusiasm. nt

2. I know what you mean.
I haven't turned my television on before 8:00 all week. (Countdown was on @ 5 here on the left coast).

3. Actually news is really basic thought control.

If that stuff stops you from standing you never see the more advanced forms.

For instance, have you heard of 'the secret' it says if you think about something you can make it happen. Do you know why that doctrine exists. Because spiritually it is a set up for thought control.

What happens is something you think about is reported to happen, then it is said it is your fault, so that you wont even think about some things. Literally there is a delusion that tries to get you to think, what you think, effects what happens, so then a thought can be dropped in your mind before something happens, then you can be said that you caused it.

A pretty sophisticated delusion.

It is easy to prove it is not true.

I don't have beer and travel money, and many experiences.

yet.



It is explained in this song by a group that for some reason sung about it, although the things harassing them are not police, shown by how easily they are defeated and shown to be delusions. Not talking about the band, the band if fine. And such things are a hassle, and many people have that situation. It is not bad comment about that band at all. They sung the song, so defeated the delusion. Since delusions would not want the answers said.

The guy has Flare!!!!!!! :rofl:


The flare is funny, but it does not make anyone better or worse if such things kick them around. Actually I think there should be justice with compassion, not harassment of people. And it can be tough even take years to break through that stuff. The best thing to do is not do what they say if you think it is wrong. After awhile you get stronger then them or they change. Not sure which one it is.

Note the hair salute, those guys are on the good side, by getting the song out.

9. I HATE how they have changed the line-up
they totally screwed Ed who is one of my favorites. I watch other things at that time so yeah now I have to record him. Which means I eventually have to watch, lots of catching up just what I need...NOT. :argh:

7. Me, too!
Also, my friends knew if they called between 5:00 and 6:00, I wouldn't answer!

I haven't figured out what to do with my "spare" hour. Lawrence O'Donnell doesn't cut it for me.

11. I still watch
the MSNBC lineup live and instead record "regular" television shows for viewing during the day when there is nothing else interesting on the TV box. When I am not home, LOD, Rachel, and (I suppose) now Ed are recorded as well. Recording Ed may become optional if I am away from home.

12. You should be open-minded to change!
Larry-O, who has come out on MSNBC and admitted he is a socialist, actually runs a great show.
And he gets some fan-tattely-tastic guests on there and he rips them a new arsehole.
