Five things about the killing of Miriam Carey that no one is talking about..
Your digital trail can be used against you.
The man who set himself on fire on the National Mall last week has been identified as Mount Laurel resident. D.C. police said 64-year-old John Constantino was the person who died last Friday during this strange event..

Former US West CEO Joseph Nacchio was released from prison last week after completing a four year insider trading sentence. He still claims the NSA framed him on the insider trading charges – after he refused to participate in their illegal phone surveillance program in 2001..
Congratulations to Clyde Lewis, who earned the title of best on air personality from KXL-FM radio in Portland Oregon.. His show obviously stretches far from just the rocky shores of Oregon—his program is a must listen to for millions each night. Often including me..

Just think of their investments! Imagine the downgrade if we default.. They want their property to keep its worth. And golly we must be the property..

Long Island Middle School Bans Footballs, Other Recreational Items
Even cartwheels have been banned.. Not sure really what’s left for kids to do. Maybe bring a tin can in and kick it around—only on tin can zones of course..
What types of zany things were these kids doing to cause a ban on all such things?

Uncle grandpa is a good show if u give it a chance there's no harm in cray cray fun
You’re one of many people who have advised me it’s time to shed my fear and tune into UNCLE GRANDPA.
I will, I promise..

Who will stop the rain?
What can I say.. tropical systems in fall? Wind and rain? All that with leaves changing bright shades of yellow and red? I just love this time of year. I could do without the 80 degree days, of course—something very weird for this part of Northeastern Pennsylvania at this time of year. But I see an extended forecast of glory later this week, after the rainy weather today.. beauty will shine. And even if the weather is not ‘beautiful,’ that’s all in the eye of the beholder anyway.
The world?
Maybe that’s not as beautiful as it once was.

Government shutdown may lead to some PRIESTS getting arrested!
Stink bug count stops due to shutdown..
Timing is everything—coincidences? Planned? …I don’t know. But the debt ceiling battle will come to a head on October 17—that’s the date the United States will default and will lose the ability to borrow, unless Congress increases the limit and passes a continuing resolution to fund government services. It’s also the date when 37 states will practice an end of the world (at least their world) scenario with the GREAT U.S. SHAKEOUT ..
More Americans are interested in football and Miley Cyrus than they are the government shutdown.. And that may continue until the SOCIAL SECURITY AND DISABILITY checks stop, as Jack Lew has hinted .. if that occurs, I expect search engine results to change rapidly.. What about you? A shutdown at that point would truly come in like a wrecking ball..

What did happen to her car? The Obama Administration refuses to tell, and few reporters are actually even asking..

There have been way too many ‘close for comfort’ events lately.. and also alarmingly too many news reports telling us about our impending demise if an impending rock slams us..

"We’ve never gotten to the point where the United States government has operated without the ability to borrow," Lew said. "It’s very dangerous. It’s reckless, because the reality is, there are no good choices if we run out of borrowing capacity and we run out of cash."
Lew said the government has been managing to make payments since May by shifting money around, but it will run out of those options on October 17. Unless Congress votes to raise the debt ceiling, the federal government will be left with “a very, very short window of time” before it would have to stop cutting checks for Social Security recipients or disabled veterans and would undermine the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, he said.
Clearly the AMBER ALERT and Let’s Move websites aforementioned on this and other sites are the least of concerns when the social security and disability checks stop..
UNCLE GRANDPA wins
I have been getting messages on here, along with private messages, which make me think my criticism of UNCLE GRANDPA (without really watching it) is not in order.. As a matter of fact, lots of people are telling me the show is great, and has a good message.
I will attempt to get passed his voice.. maybe I’ll give the show a whirl. We’ll see.
A question for all the parents out there..
There are some shows I don’t let me son watch.. there are some shows he watches and does not like (thankfully) .. and one of those shows is UNCLE GRANDPA. He’s not interested yet, but I assume as he ages, he will become so. Which frightens me.. UNCLE GRANDPA may be the single worst cartoon, ever. And quite possibly WORSE in the annoyance level than even CAILLOU.
Who agrees?

Letterman, CBS sign 'Late Show' deal through 2015
Got to say I’m a not surprised by this.. I think the show is stale now, I can’t even imagine what Letterman circa 2015 will be like..
But he really can’t go out on top. He hasn’t been on top since Hugh Grant was on top of a hooker and Leno got the first interview—and began his 23 years of high ratings..
But maybe CBS sees a chance with Dave up against Jimmy Fallon?

Remember yesterday when we were told that Miram Carey was an active shooter? And then we were told she was crazy? And then we were told she slammed through barricades in D.C.? And then police shot her as her 1-year-old was in the car? ….AND then we saw her car and it was not even damaged?
Interesting considering this video that surfaced today showing POLICE slamming through a barrier in Washington D.C.
How weird this story is…And how much sense it does not make.
A protest gone wrong? A Tibetan monk? A federal worker angry about not being paid?
A man has apparently set himself on fire at the National Mall in D.C., another strange occurrence after yesterday’s chase and killing of a mother by police.
This is how initial AP dispatches are reporting this still developing story..
A fire official says a man has been flown to the hospital after setting himself on fire on the National Mall.
Fire crews responded Friday afternoon to a report of a man on fire at 7th and Madison streets. A witness says she saw a man dump a red canister of gasoline on his head and then set himself on fire.
D.C. Fire Department spokesman Tim Wilson says the man has life-threatening injuries.

Things are set to go Pahrump in the night this evening. Tonight on Art Bell’s DARK MATTER: The first interview with Linda Howe.. Looking forward to it. I bet she is too.. Just think, a host who appreciates her intelligence and can carry on a meaningful conversation.. she hasn’t had that in years..
Is this an only in Pennsylvania type of thing?
In Wilkes-Barre, DUCT TAPE is being used to repair a building.
WNEP is reporting that permanent repairs are coming. Until then, the old duct tape route is being taken.
And if I had to make a prediction, I’d say the DUCT TAPE would hold longer than future construction anyway..
But still.. really..?
Woman was unarmed with a child. Shot and killed.. was that necessary? Once again No due process. But what do I know? This all seems to be a quick and easy distraction all alerts are off — the President has been briefed— and others like this woman won’t get their paychecks
Karen may be a little larger than some think..
A ship reported 23-foot waves & 53 mph sustained winds west of Tropical Storm Karen at 2 PM.. according to forecasters, this could be associated with the large outflow boundary moving out from the storm though..
We are told it will weaken as it approaches land..
we are told..
The government may be shut down, but there are still observations being reported here: http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/radial_search.php?storm=at2
And this is the map of where the wave was reported:
So the media almost got today's shooting wrong...
This is a tweet written by the New York Times. The headline attaches Thursday’s shooting as part of the unfurling government shutdown. The New York Times did not know this when they wrote the tweet, and an hour later we still know nothing about why the incident occurred.
A big sigh..
Everyone needs to eat some fruit.

There are LOTS of reports that are contradicting each other..
Everyone needs to take a deep breath and let this story develop..
Attempt to Ram White House Gate Ends With Female Suspect Dead
FOX NEWS reports that the shots fired at the Capitol happened at the end of a car chase.
Sirens are going off in the Capitol, and people on the Hill are being told to “shelter in place.”
Senior congressional staffers and one eyewitness told Fox News the incident began with a car chase, which came to a stop near the Capitol building. Sources said several police cars were in pursuit. When they boxed in the other vehicle, the driver got out and five or six shots were fired, sources said.
Witnesses saw a baby being taken from the car.

Sinead O’Conner writes Miley Cyrus a letter: “Don’t let the music business make a prostitute of you” .. “Nothing but harm will come in the long run, from allowing yourself to be exploited,” O’Connor warns, “and it is absolutely NOT in ANY way an empowerment of yourself or any other young women, for you to send across the message that you are to be valued (even by you) more for your sexual appeal than your obvious talent.” “The music business doesn’t give a shit about you, or any of us,” she continues. “They will prostitute you for all you are worth, and cleverly make you think it’s what YOU wanted… None of the men oggling you give a shit about you either, do not be fooled.”..

I have a playlist on this site now, it includes some of my favorite songs.. I expect it to change and be updated as much as my background image..
I was told today playing autoplay music is as crude as having a 1990s style Geoshitties page.
Can any of you let me know your thoughts on autoplaying music when you get to a site? Does it help or hurt?
Blues and News: Thursday shutdown update
The new word of the year: BARRYCADES.. those monuments of government shutdowns called barricades, changed a bit to fit the President’s order to close certain places. In the case of Mount Vernon, an order was given to shut it down. Funny enough, it’s PRIVATELY OWNED!
Federal workers nervously anxious over shutdown.. In many states, even if federal workers want to file for unemployment, to certify that they continue UC benefits, they will need to prove they are searching for another job—and if they are offered another job and don’t take it, they quite possibly will lose benefits..
Some other links worth reading
Don't go into the light.. and other weird tales at night.
Those who know me or follow this site will vouch for me: I love paranormal radio. Art Bell, Clyde Lewis.. sometimes George Noory.. seldom John Wells. Nonetheless, my mind is just blown away by the nightly prospects of flipping back and forth from Clyde to Art over and over..
Last night Art Bell had a guest, Whitley Strieber, who seemed to confirm something that John Lear said many years back on an Art Bell show when he was hosting Coast to Coast AM: Don’t go into the light.
Some context is in order.
John Lear, yes, a family member in the famed Lear family, told Art Bell that when you die, the ‘light’ is a trick.. the light is a mirage.. it’s the devil himself trying to trick us to enter the gates off hell with him.. The light.
Last night, years after that Lear show, Whitley Strieber confirmed to Art what Lear said, that the light was not goodness at all.. he said not to embrace the light. Turn away from the light.
I am with Art Bell on this. It makes me angry that the one thing that people say they see when they have NDEs may be a fraud!
I am sure many will debate me on the existence of an afterlife to begin with.. but travel down a road with me for a minute, and envision an afterlife being real. You’d certainly think ‘the light’ was a sure bet! Go to it.. there is peace and serenity in the light, right?
Maybe not..
Something for you to think about, until you meet your ultimate demise and actually find out if an afterlife, a light, and a devil exists..

Everything was typical.. until the atypical occurred.
This story is true. Trust me.. I would never lie to readers…
TONIGHT, around 6:30 PM…
It was just another night at Coal Speaker home base..
My wife’s sister was here for dinner.. Ayden, as usual, wasn’t hungry, so he was watching BATMAN on TV.. And on the table, three empty bowls. Our soup was gone..
For the record, my wife and her sister were talking.. my empty
I stood up from the table and turned around to the refrigerator to get something… My wife and her sister remained at the table.
I suddenly heard a clank noise, as though the spoon hit the bowl. When I turned around, the three of us witnessed the bowl crack into three pieces. When my wife moved her arms towards to the bowl to pick up the glass, it cracked and shattered further…
All three of us heard the spoon clank noise.. all three of us watched the bowl crash.
This occurred about 10 minutes AFTER hot soup was gone.. an empty, cold bowl.
By the way, the bowl itself is “Corelle Break and Chip Resistant.”
I am “SURE” there is a scientific explanation for this.. But I racked my brain for hours now trying to figure that out .. the only end game I can have is to travel down the paranormal road.
Unless someone out there, in the dark of the night, has a thought as to how this could happen..
Am I crazy? Paranoid? ..Probably.
But explain how a spoon seems to suddenly jump, crack a bowl, and have it all occur without anyone doing it?
A tale of various political stories..
I try to avoid politics on this site. I really do.. but it crops up, rears its multi-faceted head, and takes over the posts here quite a bit..
From the WASHINGTON POST, we learn that Republicans are in fear of the health exchange networks, where people can go and choose insurance under the Affordable Care Act.. the POST says that the websites were crashing because of the amount of people trying to figure out of they qualify for some type of coverage.. (Here’s the source for your reading pleasure) ..
And from the UK DAILY MAIL, we have this: They report that less than 1% of the people actually going to the websites are signing up — maybe because they cannot? I don’t know. (Here is that source)..
I suppose this is going to be hotly debated. Oh, and the government is shut down. In case our lawbreakers of the Republic don’t know.
While we debate on whether people are flocking to these sites and causing high-traffic and outages, consider this fact: The Obama Administration has yet to actually tell us how many people signed up on the exchanges.. And apparently, according to some desperate to find new insurance or insurance at all, the websites are working 'worse' today than yesterdayy..
What are the trending costumes so far? You guessed it.. Miley Cyrus is looming large over Halloween 13..
Cyrus costumes flying off the shelf..
Thanks Miley. Now you ruined Halloween.
RELEASE THE HOUNDS!?
The unknowing contestants will be facing fear in their quest for money.
One part of the show will be a race in which they will be chased by hound dogs who have been trained (tortured?) to guard cash the people are seeking.
This sounds like we’ve gone over the edge.
I remember the controversy in the late 1990s when Survivor first started.
And now we, as TV viewers, have evolved our habits into watching people being chased by dogs that could very well kill them?
This is entertainment, baby.
Welcome to TEEEE VEEE…
LOOK! In the sky! It's a bird, it's a plane! It's a drone! It crashed!!!
Eyewitness News has obtained video of a small helicopter drone flying high above buildings on the East side of Manhattan that crash landed just feet away from a businessman during the Monday evening rush hour.
I expect as we enter the drone wars of the mid 21st century, lots more are going to hit the earth.. Let’s hope not over people. Right?

MARKETING 101 WITH MILEY VIRUS CYRUS
Five marketing lessons from Miley Cyrus.. Interesting perspective .. she did create a spectacle and benefits highly from it..and it struck while the iron was hot. Genius marketing moves, for sure.
With the help of course of SATAN and her Illuminati brethren..
This is not a joke: Japanese fast-food chain has announced plans to grow rice and vegetables on a farm 60 miles from the crippled Fukushima power plant, site of the world's worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl in 1986
Pretty shocking. I am sure some will chalk this up into the ‘what can go wrong’ category..
Growing food near a meltdown.. ..this and Japan getting the 2020 Olympics? Everything is just coming up roses in Japan.
Big, giant, smelly radiated roses.
My, how your food grows. And glows.

He’s got plenty more beebs up his sleeves.. And while I am growing weary of daily headlines relating to Justin Bieber and his self-loving fever, I cannot escape them. The latest from CHINA:
Justin Bieber gets CARRIED up the Great Wall of China..
And they sprint behind him while skateboarding….an ego out of control?
Something to watch: There are clouds and rain near Cuba, and it could turn into a tropical system and move towards the Southeast.. Numerous weather models seem to be converging on the notion that whatever happens with the storm system, the United States will be affected. And the timing as usual is weird: It was one year ago this month that Sandy struck the Northeast.. I am not comparing these storms at all, but just the typical weird timing on events in life has once again amazed me..
THE PINK STARS ARE FALLING. Or something is.
A spattering of fireball news for today:
Was it ball lightning or something else?
Ison could still be the comet of the century. Or not.
And with all those government satellites not being monitored by anyone because of a shutdown, this happened: ISON passed by MARS on Tuesday..

Strieber's aliens and Clyde's 9: It's one of those creepy nights..
Whitley Strieber talking about aliens going up his rear end on Art Bell.
Or a guest on Clyde Lewis talking about the 9.
A night of weird on my ear buds. I am debating if I should play each on a separate phone and beam both shows into a respective ear. What would my dreams me like then!?
AN INTERVIEW WITH AN ATHEIST
The Pope is stirring debate again after an interview with an Italian journalist—who is also an atheist..
The cool rockin Francis said, in part, that church leaders ‘have often been narcissists’..And the WASHINGTON POST reports this,
A top official with the Southern Baptist Convention, the largest Protestant denomination in the United States, took the unprecedented step of rebuking Francis, writing that the pope’s interview was “a theological wreck” and that Francis was dabbling dangerously in relativism.
AN INTERVIEW WITH AN ATHEIST
I know about budgets. I was a drug dealer. To be in a drug deal, you need to know what you can spend, what you need to re-up. Or if you want to start some sort of barbershop or car wash—those were the businesses back then. Things you can get in easily to get out of [that] life. At some point, you have to have an exit strategy, because your window is very small; you’re going to get locked up or you’re going to die
Who killed October horror movies? Who cares?
A very interesting story is appearing in USA TODAY, today.. Who killed the Halloween horror movies is the title, and the article goes in depth on how October has become an unusually quiet month for horror flicks—only the remake of CARRIE is really set to scare this month. … and USA TODAY concludes this, which I agree with: Horror has become such a successful genre that you would not be able to fit all the hits into one month. The summer has been another time where horror has seen a build influx of cash..
As someone who is dating myself in my less than youthful invigoration, I think things began to change around the the turn of the century from 1999 to 2001.. We saw hits happen in the summer, like THE SIXTH SENSE, the BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, and JEEPERS CREEPERS. It was clear to studios then, as it is now, that you don’t need leaves changing and cooler nights to entice movie goers to be scared. And in the summer, you have another good thing: Kids aren’t in school and are more inclined to do late movies.
Either way, I don’t get angry or sad that October features few horror movies—most of them are less than watchable anyway to me..
My horror movie marathon for the season typically happens the night before or the night of Halloween, and is filled with only the first John Carpenter HALLOWEEN version..
And sometimes for fun, I’ll throw in Halloween III for some laughs.. I don’t know why no one has remake H3, a modern version of the SILVER SHAMROCK themed film could actually make it better..
FLOTUS the tweetless
Even the first lady’s Twitter account has been hit by the government shutdown. Not really sure why, but she Michelle Obama tweeted this to her hundreds of thousands of followers today:
Due to Congress’s failure to pass legislation to fund the government, updates to this account will be limited. #Shutdown
— FLOTUS (@FLOTUS) October 1, 2013
I am sure there’s a reason for the treason.. but until someone tells me, I’ll just chalk this tidbit up as ‘noise’..
what's with the obama picture in the background?
Expect to see lots of photos in the background.. Obama in college smoking was my first choice..
…hmm…did the United States find a new place to dump its used water bottles? Cassini probe now sees a plastic ingredient on Titan .. It reminds me of how much we don’t know about anything.. such as the planet made of glass.. and now a moon consisting of plastic..
Plastic Man will be renamed to Titan Man..
