I am nothing more than a patriotic American that is doing whatever I can to further the cause of democracy, the rule of law, and am extremely concerned in regard the slow creep of "soft fascism" that has been destroying America's middle-class.
I am currently disabled, have a background in Sales, Sales Management, and am an A+ Certified Computer technician. Somehow, I manage to live with a take-home income from Social Security that is $829.00 per month. I am not a professional writer and have been attempting to teach myself through trial and error. I have written part one of an autobiography that has been read by several people who state they couldn't put it down and two of those individuals have tried in vain to get it published. If I can ever find the time to rewrite the entire piece, I have been assured that it will likely be published; however, with our political climate in constant uproar, I believe that independent writers must apply themselves to provide information to the general public that our corrupt, corporate controlled Mainstream News Media refuses to publish. Practicing patriotism and fighting for what we believe in is not a part-time job.
My Sister is also disabled, and her total income per month to care for two children is only $480.00, so in addition to keeping my personal site up and running, I also provide a home and whatever else I can for my sister and her two children. When I write about the challenges our battered economy poses to those whom are financially challenged, it's often through personal experience and hardship. I often rely on real time experiences to give me the insight and fortitude to write with passion and resolve on issues that are affecting far too many millions of Americans.
Freedom is not free. Complacency and believing "the other guy" will stand-up for us has not - and never will succeed. We are only successful in our endeavors when we stand together in solidarity. Life free or die!
Friday, August 26, 2011 What Caused Colorado's 5.3 Earthquake on August 23rd And Other Unrelated U.S. Seismic Activity? (1 comments)
The theory that I am presenting today involves the Rio Grande Rift. Rifts are located throughout the world and several of those are inactive or in some cases, extinct. (It's important to note that Volcanoes and Rifts, as well as inactive fault zones that we believe are inactive/extinct can be reactivated by other geological forces, so the term "extinct" is purely a relative term as it relates to our limited understanding of geological processes.)
Sunday, June 12, 2011 What Happened To Op-Ed News? (1 comments)
Hello folks, long time since I've been here and written anything. I've had several health issues during the past year and haven't written much on my own site. I read Op-Ed News on a semi-regular basis and a few months ago an extremely provocative Op-Ed was posted and I spent over an hour and a half preparing a well thought out comment and then attempted to post my thoughts on the issue. Was I in for a surprise...
Friday, December 3, 2010 Congress Should Be recused From Voting On Bush Tax Breaks (1 comments)
The Bush Tax Cuts for the wealthy will enrich our Congress to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Can anyone spell "conflict of interests?"
Wednesday, September 29, 2010 19 Statistics Indicate Corporate America Has Destroyed America's Economy (5 comments)
There are 19 statistics that indicate America's economy may never recover and it is evident that Corporate America has delivered a death knell to our Middle-class and the entire economy. The facts you will read in this post represents irrefutable evidence that Corporate America has been busy dismantling our economy for years with the help of corrupt politicians in Washington. They have also compromised national security.
Saturday, September 25, 2010 The Sorry State Of Our Nation And How We Can Reclaim America
The Mainstream News Media would have us believe that the real cause of our economic plight was the collapse of the Housing Bubble and the gross fraud of Wall Street as they conjured-up financial instruments that should have landed hundreds of their charlatans and thieves in Federal Prison. Granted, both of those issues dealt a harsh blow to the economy, however, if the economy was strong we could have weathered whatever they threw at us but long before either of those scandals became known, Corporate America, corrupt Washington Politicians and the Elites that run this country had already dealt a death blow to our economy that to me, bordered on treason and sedition. As Mitch Gurney alluded to in his latest article, Have America's Business and Political Leaders cooked our Goose?, it appears to me that our corporations and America's Elites have knowingly worked to undermine our economy, national security, and the very fabric that held this nation together for over two hundred years.
Thursday, March 25, 2010 The 911 Teardrop Memorial And An Apology To Our Russian Friends
We cannot comprehend why the MSM failed to cover this gift to America with the significance it deserved, and their utter failure to acknowledge this tribute from the Russian people has embarrassed us and rather than thanking Russia for their kindness and sympathy, the failure of the MSM to properly cover this significant event was a slap in the face to those in Russia that attempted to demonstrate solidarity with us against terrorism and the terrible effect it has wrought upon nations throughout the global community.
Tuesday, March 23, 2010 Between 1:00 PM and 3:00 Today, The BBC Has Requested To Interview Me On The Google/China Situation (4 comments)
Yes, I'm shocked and honored beyond belief; just a few minutes ago, I received a call from the United Kingdom requesting if I'd be available today for an interview with the BBC in regard a comment I posted and a new article I wrote on the Google/China situation.
Saturday, March 20, 2010 Can bloggers be journalists? Federal court says yes
I attempted to revise my original Diary, however, since I'm using the wrong version of Firefox, even though I saved the draft, all of my further writing was lost, therefore am submitting a new Diary entry.
Saturday, March 20, 2010 What qualifies an individual to claim Journalistic Privileges?
What is the legal qualification that allows an individual to claim journalistic privileges? If an individual has spent years reporting on news events the Mainstream News Media refuses to report upon, when does that individual have the right to refuse to disclose his or her sources on matters that a court could demand while attempting to implicate another person?
Tuesday, February 9, 2010 Yellowstone Update For February 2010 (5 comments)
The recent earthquake swarms at Yellowstone's "Super Volcano" are the longest spate of these swarms to hit Yellowstone in recent memory. The USGS is downplaying these earthquake swarms as "normal," and it's possible they are. The truth is that our knowledge of Super Volcanoes is extremely limited; there has not been an eruption of a Super Volcano in recorded history, and as dangerous as this phenomena is (Super Volcanoes), there is no established scientific record that scientists can use to properly evaluate whether or not an eruption is eminent.
Friday, January 29, 2010 Tonight's "Wolf Moon" -" Beware If You Live In Earthquake Zones (1 comments)
On the eve of this year's Wolf Moon, I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that tonight's full moon will pass without another disaster caused by earthquakes or volcanic activity. Tonight, the moon will be closer to earth than at any other time of year, and there is evidence that a full moon can trigger earthquakes. Earthquakes and volcanic activity have markedly increased throughout the planet during the past decade. Too few people are aware that climate change may trigger earthquakes and volcanoes and earthquakes can trigger volcanic activity. To ice the cake, Big Earthquakes (can) Spark Jolts Worldwide.
Monday, September 21, 2009 Northern Georgia is Drowning! (2 comments)
I'm 58 years old, lived in Georgia on and off for years, and never in my life have I seen this much rain! I checked the levels of Lake Lanier two or three days ago, and it was six feet from being at "full pool." I just checked again as I'm writing this Diary, and it's now 4.64 feet from being at full pool. Lake Lanier is huge, and that's an enormous amount of water in just a few days...
Thursday, August 27, 2009 Facts About Google and their New "Chrome" Browser
I'm a huge fan of Google and somehow, I downloaded something that changed my default browser to Yahoo - and what a difference it made! Until I can reload my system the browser won't allow me to change the default setting, so I'll have to live with it until I have the time to reload my system. Chrome is another matter and it still has problems, but they are minor and the speed is unbelievable!
Thursday, August 20, 2009 President Obama - Appoint An "Average Americanl" To Your Advisors (2 comments)
President Obama, like all Presidents before him, only listen to the rich and political elite. He never hears the real view of the Average American - and if he were interested in our well-being, he would act to change this immediately!
Tuesday, August 18, 2009 We Need Some Advice; No Child Left Behind Is Harming My Nieces Health! (2 comments)
The Judge has ordered that both children receive all A's and B's, otherwise their Mother will be punished. My Niece, who just turned 14, is so stressed out over her math grades that she's getting sick!
Saturday, February 28, 2009 The Financial Crisis Is Over! (For our family) (2 comments)
Millions of Americans are suffering through this recession/depression, however, because of mold in our home, I was forced to move, and in doing so, solved our personal financial crisis as long as Social Security remains solvent.
Thursday, February 12, 2009 Unfortunately, I may need massive political support (2 comments)
After I published "Inequities Within Medicaid/Medicare And The Dastardly Actions Of The DEA," we have found out that the school system is attempting to access the children's medical records. My sister believes they are attempting to take custody of her children.
Monday, February 2, 2009 I've lost my objectivity. (4 comments)
Unfortunately, I have lost my objectivity when it comes to political matters. For the time being, until I can control my own emotions and bury the hate and loathing I feel for our government, I'll concentrate on issues that do not require objectivity - but matters of fact.
Saturday, August 30, 2008 In Memoriam: Eileen L. Pelland, 1930 2008 (6 comments)
I have written this to honor my Mother's memory, however, her death and evaluating the circumstances surrounding it point to a national issue where families lose everything they have because of extended and unexpected illnesses. Doctors, hospitals, and especially pharmaceutical companies profit from our collective misery in a country where a $5.00 shot of Demerol can cost the consumer in excess of $600.00 - which in my opinion, is nothing short of highway robbery.
Saturday, July 19, 2008 July's Update For Justanothercoverup And The Enemy Within America

Friday, November 30, 2007 Freedom Is Not Free, The Momentum Is Building! (6 comments)
Colleges all over America are reading this series, and I've received word that many are taking-up this cause and emailing the original to Congress and The White House, as well as distributing it to those that don't have Internet access. We have the chance to make a difference, and the more that read this series and take action - the better our chances are to keep the Internet a "Free-Speech Zone"
Wednesday, October 17, 2007 Bush Is Still Attempting To Weaken Our Economy (2 comments)
Not that it will surprise anyone, but once again, President Bush is pushing to keep his "free trade" agreements in place even though support is cooling, even among Conservative Republicans.
Wednesday, October 10, 2007 Only You can Help Save America (1 comments)
This is a Video commentary and means to which the American people can bring back accountability to government, and most of all, a way to return our country to it's Constitutional principles and the Rule of Law.
Friday, September 28, 2007 The War On Terror is Real, But We Are Fighting In The Wrong Country
Recent international events have demonstrated that Pakistan is now much more of a danger to Middle-East stability, and once again, Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld set the stage for an eventual reemergence of Al Qaeda - and now their options grow bleak and dangerous. President Bush could act like a "real" President and help to destroy Al Qaeda, but I doubt it's in his or Cheney's current portfolio...

Friday, October 12, 2007 Did Homeland Security Note the Implications of this Spam Email
Today I received a spam email, and unlike other scams I've seen, in my opinion this particular piece of spam is a direct attempt by someone using a UK server to attempt identity theft - or even worse, an attempt to glean information from Americans so phony passports can be made for illegal entry into the United States.
