Every so often, it’s wise to read “the enemy” and see what they’re saying. Who are the enemy? 1. Globalists, whether as multi-national CEOs, EU Marxists, banksters or anyone else in power and pushing an unpatriotic, non-nation-sovereign line, especially if such is being done behind the scenes, covered by utter BS spouting from their mouths.

No one likes being duped, cheated or lied to. In fact, we get quite unpleasant when it happens. Statistics are so misused, especially by government and can be made to say anything they want. Business Insider has pulled a similar trick with this statement on their survey of brides: Their reactions may surprise you. We [...]

Just because they can’t seem to find it: Scientists chasing a particle they believe may have played a vital role in creation of the universe indicated on Monday they were coming to accept it might not exist after all.

In the past few days, this site took a hit and among other things, lost all pics from July to September. I’ve discovered one of the possible causes was a site running bitcoin and that followed the Twitter hit. Either way, it’s back in operation but needs rebuilding. To help with this, I’d like to [...]

I’d like to support the commenter who wrote: It took real guts for Nadine Dorres to ask that question and I agree with the other MP, this was despicable. It did take guts. I asked a conservative what it was with Dorries – why she’s so vilified and he said it was something to do [...]

Writers at Spiegel have produced a long article on the financial crisis [H/T Chuckles] and what became apparent early was that this was an attempt to make 80% sense, in order to insert 20% rhetoric. The aim? To make readers, already down on the banksters and politicians and rightly so, come to the wrong conclusions [...]

These next three days will be a semi-hiatus. RL has caught up and there are some things which must be completed today, then tomorrow it might fall apart after an interview I have. There are two other issues as well. I’ll try to post and get to comments on those posts but it’s going to [...]

See what you think about this one [H/T Chuckles]: But since young women conceal their glory by hair dye, and since many dyes look merely mousy and do not attract attention, the explanations do not cover the facts.

Sorry but it goes on and on. I made the point that women should not be in charge of major corporations and this potty-mouth is no exception: It’s finally happened: Yahoo has fired CEO Carol Bartz. We know that Yahoo chairman Roy Bostock informed her of the news today because of the epic email she [...]

Just how the Pacific and Chinese concepts of sailing craft differed so radically is partly the wave and wind conditions they sailed in, partly the climate – hot, meaning that the craft were more open than European craft – and partly their temperament, including the abundance of cheap labour.

Ezra’s in fine form. I’ll just pick bits out of his article: Onyango Obama, U.S. President Barack Obama’s uncle, was charged this week in Boston with drunk driving. Turns out he’s also an illegal immigrant. When he was arrested, he told police he wanted to call the White House. Why not? If President Obama bailed [...]

A wonderful chap with whom I’m going to have a drink one day soon sent me a link: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cifamerica/2011/apr/08/koch-brothers-lobbying … and well done, Guardian, for getting into what the Koch Bros are getting into, e.g.: The idea that Charles and David Koch are liberal bêtes noires is not new. Over the past year, the elderly [...]

There is this phenomenon whereby the very people who tell us to adopt Occam’s Razor in seeking explanations and to apply KISS, are the ones who will then revert to all sorts of complicated explanations, from myriad philosophies to the inventing of gods across the cultures, to von Daniken explanations and in Masonic form, speak [...]

Two worthy gentlemen have pointed out that when they enter the front page of nourishing obscurity, some noise or vibration ensues. One at OoL says that when he clicked on my name, it took him to the old site, which is interesting as it takes me here. I’d appreciate your comment on any anomalies you’ve [...]

In 1829 Robert Stephenson entered his steam locomotive, called the Rocket, in a competition called the Rainhill Trials. It was to be held east of Liverpool and the winner would receive £500. There were 10 other locomotives entered in the race and Stephenson had to transport his engine and equipment there, by horse and cart, [...]

Of course people must take responsibility for their own lives but what if they’ve been infantilized? What if they’ve been suckered into allowing their own greed to take over? Their own irresponsibility? Yes they must reap the bitter harvest but those who allowed it to happen cannot escape their just desserts.

Zero Hedge: [W]e suggest a casual reading of the following two articles by Bloomberg and MNI – frankly we are too lazy to summarize. As for the market: it already knows whats up.
