This appeared on the website of a local TV station: http://www.kcra.com/article/sean-spicer-cites-atlanta-terror-attack-that-never-happened/8694171 Apparently there was an Islamist terror attack in Atlanta and a massacre of some kind in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Not only that, the "lying media&q... |

This is why a lot of people say "Fuk-u-shima" instead of "Foo-koo-shima" (the latter being correct Japanese, the former, well...). As for the whole planet getting nuked, it's certainly possible. It almost happened in 1962, and it was the cuckoo generals who wanted it so they coul... |

Actually, the "anti-UFO people" (with Hynek specifically mentioned) never claimed that ALL UFO activity was "swamp gas". Apparently Hynek had made the "swamp gas" comment about ONE sighting, and soon enough it got blown all out of context and soon everybody thought that... |

Are you talking about VHF/UHF "handie talkies"? If so, there's lots of computer programs that you can use to program them, such as Chirp. Just get a USB to HT cable, install the programming software, plug your HT into your PC, then program it. Some of the Chinese HTs like the Wouxun (and t... |

Adamantium, that's what Edward R. Murrow did with Joe McCarthy in 1954. He had his people simply record McCarthy's ranting at the Army-McCarthy hearings, then tossed it on the air as is, no edits, no comments. Once people saw what a drunk weirdo McCarthy was, he got the boot from the court of public... |

Trump is merely a symptom of what is wrong with America: http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2017/01/america-stan-long-trump-170106115025029.html America has always been a third world country, pretty much. As late as 1933 (or even later) millions of Americans had to use crude diesel generators... |

If civil order does break down, it will likely mainly be in the cities. Already we are seeing riots at college campuses by leftist students, and declarations of "revolt" in the far left press. Beneficii, since you're in Sacramento, grab a copy of this week's News and Review. Splashed on th... |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HVqdtkC5l4 One of my favorite songs from what I call "the dusk of heavy metal", in the early 90s when most of the famous metal bands of the 80s put out their last great works (IMHO). "I" is off Black Sabbath's 1992 album Dehumanizer. As you might... |

After the fall of civilization, the place belongs to the guards, not the "owners" if there is no court system backing up the title, the man with the AR and body armor owns it all. I haven't read the classic apocalypse novel Lucifer's Hammer, where a big comet smashes into earth, but someb... |

A very long time ago, a now forgotten presidential candidate named Michael Dukakis noted of his opponent, George HW Bush, that "a fish rots from the head first". That means that if the "head" of an organization is corrupt, it will filter down. Today, the global elites are effecti... |

Actually, the greatest people in history are those who simply wanted to be left alone to march to their own drummer. Most NT's can't seem to do that, and especially in our current Age of Narcissism where every kid has to be THE BEST and we can't hurt a kid's feelings by telling him he's not THE BEST... |
