A man received the following text from his neighbor:
I am so sorry Bob. I’ve been riddled with guilt and I have to confess. I have been tapping your wife, day and night when you’re not around. In fact, more than you. I’m not getting any at home, but that’s no excuse. I can no longer live with the guilt and I hope you will accept my sincerest apology with my promise that it won’t happen again.

An Austin, Texas man’s lawful failure to identify lead a DPS trooper to physically assault him, falsely arrest him, then charge him with “resisting arrest,” despite video showing he did nothing of the sort.
In May of 2012, after letting someone go during a routine traffic stop, DPS Trooper Chancy Davis saw a truck with two men in it parked in front of a window tinting business, which he evidently felt was suspicious. David approached the vehicle and demanded the men provide him with ID. They refused, which evidently led the officer to throw a fit.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Navy is mapping out how to expand its presence in the Arctic beginning about 2020, given signs that the region’s once permanent ice cover is melting faster than expected, which is likely to trigger more traffic, fishing and resource mining.
“The Arctic is all about operating forward and being ready. We don’t think we’re going to have to do war-fighting up there, but we have to be ready,” said Rear Admiral Jonathan White, the Navy’s top oceanographer and navigator, and director of the Navy’s climate change task force.

KIEV, Ukraine — Ukraine’s interior minister accused Moscow’s military of blockading an airport near a Russian naval base on Friday and armed men took control of another airport in Ukraine’s Crimean capital of Simferopol.
In a Facebook post, Arsen Avakov called the seizure of the Belbek international airport in the Black Sea port of Sevastopol a “military invasion and occupation.” He added: “It is a breach of all international agreements and norms.” Continue reading “Ukraine Accuses Russia of ‘Invasion’ Over Airport Blockade”

A new policy at Tennessee State University (TSU) will force students and faculty to “wear and display” official identification badges — complete with tracking technology — at all times on campus or risk punishment.
As of March 1, being caught on campus not wearing the new ID “may result in employee disciplinary action, student judicial action or removal from University property,” according to a release published by the school. Continue reading “University policy will force students to wear trackable identification at all times”

On the heels of Northeast Utilities admitting that smart meters are “irrational”, we’re seeing the wheels of reason and logic further come off the centralized energy cart(el).
In what is an illegal and thinly-veiled “psy-op” (psychological operation) attempting to stem the rising tide of awareness of the massive rights violations associated with their ‘smart’ meter deployments, Plumas Sierra Rural Electric Cooperative (PSREC) actually disconnected the electricity from the home of Joshua Hart, a leader in the movement and director of StopSmartMeters.org.

Speculation about how the state of Connecticut would respond to the thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, of gun owners who failed to register their firearms by December 31 ended when the state police sent out this January 2, 2014 letter to all those who registered late, but who in the process gave the state sufficient information to brand them as criminals: name, address, description of weapon or magazine, and date of ownership: Continue reading “Connecticut Gun Confrontation Brewing Over Registration”
Maybe the flame under the melting pot is burning so hot that our own national identity has…I don’t know...melted?
In Northern California last year, students wearing t-shirts bearing an American flag were asked to turn them inside out. Wait a second…Northern California is still in America, right? Yeah, that’s what I thought. Continue reading “Silly Students, Don’t You Know That in America, a Mexican Holiday Takes Precedence Over Patriotism?”

Things have been getting a little…strange lately. What with all these banker suicides and warnings from banks that the stock market is about to decline by 10% or more.
To add to that, let’s recall an article that appeared in The Washington Times back on October 29, 2012 entitled, “MEANS: U.S. economy on schedule to crash March 4, 2014″: Continue reading “Black Tuesday Redux? Media Predicted Economic Collapse on March 4, 2014”

One of my biggest pet peeves on the road is the left-lane highway cruiser. If you’re a compulsive reader of my articles (Why would you do that to yourself?), you may remember that I have written on this very issue before.
I don’t care how fast you are going. The leftmost lane on the highway is for passing. That is basic road etiquette, but, not surprisingly, few people here in Georgia follow it. And it is frustrating. Continue reading “Georgia to Pass Awesome Slowpoke Bill”
Last week the Federal Reserve released transcripts of emergency meetings that they held during the peak of the 2008 financial crisis. Releases such as these are required by federal law, but by now the information is woefully out of date, so it’s unfortunately far too late for you to do anything meaningful with it.
Still, even these out-of-date releases make for fascinating reading, because they show the other side of the Fed’s duck-like behavior, as they paddle like mad underneath the surface. Continue reading “Transcripts Reveal A Fed Hell-Bent On Secrecy (But Here’s Some Info To Act On)”
This trip also included Sinbad the comedian as well as others. When Sinbad was asked about the running from snipers his comment was something like Snipers,What snipers, the only running we did was to the local restaurant’s. Or something along that line. Point is they were never under fire.

The Democratic Party is already tripping over themselves in their hasty preparation to lay the groundwork to elect the first woman president to follow up on their successful election of the first black president. In the next few months we will begin to see a lot of information resurface in regards to Hillary “formerly Rodham” Clinton’s past exploits, scandals, and sometimes confusing history.
