Once a website goes black, it may never go back.. Depending on my mood, perhaps.
To be honest, the constant white background that this site greeted people with was beginning to hurt my own eyes.. We’ll see if the black background with red accents give me less of a headache.. And for those who matter, give me some feedback and let me know if the new look is agreeable to you.. Professional? Less so? …ugly no matter which? Inquiring minds crave the knowledge..

Love Coal Speaker no matter if it's black or white?

Wide-eyed over new Facebook privacy policy.. be forewarned when you tag
The good old days of privacy.. Ahh, yes. Gone for good.. and ushering it out is the new world of constant surveillance, photos being posted everywhere of you, and your every move being tracked and posted online. And oh, by the way, you are doing it … No need for Big Brother to take something away when you freely give it yourself.
But now new concerns over facial recognition policy on Facebook are becoming real. Facebook is allowing users to identify their friends automatically in photos without their permission. It’s called ‘tag suggestions’ and until now it has just been unavailable. Have fun, kids, yet another tool to rid yourself of privacy.
Once people would have asked, how far is too far? Now the question is gone and replacing it is the race to tag and track it all, chip the arm, log the leg, track the call, and save the searches.
People often say, “If I don’t do anything wrong I have nothing to fear.” Wrong. History tells us that.
Facebook is fun, I have an account, and it’s easy to connect with friends. And it has perfected the 21st century abandonment of those things we once held true to: Privacy. Tag me baby, it’s the new world order.
Why are you basically convicting casey anthony?
I’m not. I put a poll on here a day ago to see people’s thoughts. I post things about the trial and add some commentary on my thoughts on the trial.. I believe all are innocent until guilty, and I believe all are entitled to a decent defense that truly questions the evidence presented by the state.
As a matter of fact, I actually don’t think the state has compelled me yet. I believe without question there are lots of things tying Casey Anthony to the death of her daughter, and the heart stick and “trouble” shirt they find with the skull doesn’t help.
But if I was on the jury, I still would not be decided. I wonder if they will put Casey herself on the stand.. and if so … wow, just imgaine the mad and insane *(and ridiculous) rush to get in the court house that day.
I asked the new world order question but I have a follow up: don't you think religions, organized ones, are worse than government? They have hurt a hell of a lot more people, don't you say?
Not really comparable. Organized religions have been certainly guilty of some pretty harsh things. And so has government. I don’t have a body count, to be honest with you.. but Vietnam, China, the Soviet Union,and Nazi Germany during the 20th century certainly killed millions upon millions of innocent world citizens.
I guess government killed too.. but I’d be more inclined to believe that through history the ‘state’ killed due to religion much more than the religion itself.
i noticed a ton of new world order stuff and bilderberg stuff on this site lately, i guess I just wonder if you buy into that all? do you actually think "they" are out to get us? whoever "They" are?
News flash: There is a Bilderberg meeting happening now. It’s really happening! No .. really.
And sure, why wouldn’t there be powerful people meeting in order to change or make a world agenda? I consider it a natural that people would do just that.
We need to be a little concerned though when anything happens behind closed doors. The light of the truth coming in, doors wide open, that is how we find out the truth.
Where did you move to when you had to leave Centralia? I find the story of that place interesting, also kind of sad.
Left Centralia in the late 1980s.. My grandmother stayed until she died.. and if you follow it at all some are still holding out there despite government attempts to force them out.
The story is a sad one. It was a nice little town.. very nice. I would have had a much different childhood were there to be no mine fire. Instead there was, so there were fewer and fewer kids to play with and just vacant streets with the constant noise of powered equipment tearing down structures that stood in some cases for well over 100 years.

If this is the future, find me a time machine to stay in the past.
Even the flannels that women wore in the early 90s making them look uglier than they should have been are better garments than the odd futuristic designs presented at this Moscow show.
This past week's solar storm delivered only a glancing blow to earth-- but delivered a warning of impending doom in the future.
Maybe next year.
Two years..
20 years.
100 years.
No matter what year, it will happen someday, some time, in the future. Near or far. And boy do we hope it is indeed far, far away.

Absolutely nothing but stress and work to look forward to.. A new study claims that most Americans won't be able to retire until they are in their 80s..,
If true, expect the average lifespan to shorten dramatically.
Absolutely nothing but stress and work to look forward to.. A new study claims that most Americans won't be able to retire until they are in their 80s..,
You're lucky! I'm only fifteen years old. I was recently acquainted with Coast to Coast AM / Art Bell a little over a year ago when I came across the frantic Area 51 caller. From that point, I managed to find old links and mp3s of previous shows all through the 90's. I listen in Saturday nights during 'Somewhere in Time' because I absolutely admire Art Bell. I can't say the same for Noory!
I began listening around 15 back in the mid 90s.. I’m
Showing my age. If you want a good one Google 1994 Ghost to Ghost download, you’ll find a good show. And listen to all the Malachi Martin shows on YouTube.
Casey Anthony's break down in court
The hardest parts of the for a human to take:
Today was tough.. The spirit of Caylee Anthony was in court today.. I sensed Casey finally is coming to grips with what she did or what she knows.. I think perhaps her wild party animal 30 or so days she had while Caylee decomposed either in a car trunk or a bag in a field is coming back to haunt her…
The images today are viral.. the implications of the evidence today is immense.
And the evidence is so prejudicial that it could open a can of worms for the prosecution and quite possibly lead to a very strong defense appeal should Casey Anthony be found guilty…
Casey Anthony's break down in court
Hear no evil, see no evil.. report no evil.
Too bad, he’s really awesome.
I agree. And I hope he will come back and save the night again from the dull and drabby.. live from somewhere in the desert, or even Manila, wherever he so chooses..
A quick Art Bell related note
For those who messaged me saying that Art Bell is “coming back,” he is not, and didn’t say that. Instead he simply said he wants to see if his building in the Phillipines will allow him to put up a antenna on the building—most likely for ham radio.
It appears that Art, at least not at this time, is coming back to Coast to Coast AM or any other show. Not that it will stop his fans from begging..
Apparently reporters are going to have a busy weekend. Sarah Palin's emails get revealed
I’m sure instead of searching for a needle in a haystack, it will be like searching for a needle in a crack addict: Just that easy to find juicy tidbits in Trig, tanning beds, and moose meat.

Good evening all
Great.. another oil slick being investigated in the Gulf of Mexico
"No connection" to the BP oil spill.. the slick stretches for 7 miles, according to reports.. investigation continues.. "No connection" though, they tell us.. none.
After seeing not 1, not 2, but three separate accidents on the interstate this morning, I can only conclude the following
1) People turn into NASCAR drivers in the summer. They feel hot weather empowers them to go 95 mph
2) They are so addicted to Facebook, and thereby themselves, that they endanger others because they have absolute no concern for other human life..
3) And finally: I need to get a job I actually like that fulfills me if I’m going to die going there.
Goodnight world.
Be a spaceman, and watch the sky.

Advice here?
Anyone out there, give me the best way to figure out if a zombie Tumblr bot is following me!
Good evening world.. from the sunspots of space to the deep and dark crust of the earth, magma spinning into insanity around a core that no one understands.. the crust is thin and here we are..waiting and resting our weary heads on that small supply of a safety net. Godspeed earth. Enjoy what is left of a beautiful summer evening—before that extreme summer heat comes..

The ‘announcement’ speculation builds:
What will it be? Speculation builds online as Art Bell promises a June 9 ‘announcement’. Coming back to radio? Having another child? Moving back to the high desert or just another place in the Philippines? After 1,000 Facebook friends and dozens of message boards (and probably George Noory too) wonders what exactly the ABs are planning..
Rumbling in the Midwest
Midwest shake: 4.2 quake hits early in the morning .. USGS confirms, 4.2 magnitude earthquake felt in St. Louis, Columbia, Jefferson City. No damage reportedAwfully close to that pesky little New Madrid fault line, don’t you think?
FLARE!

A horrific but must-read article
As a world, we forgot the atrocities of the last century—namely the roaring 1990s, while the world prospered absolute horror unfolded in Bosnia.. This past week we were reminded again of the crimes of war with Mladic’s capture.. And now this: Mevludin Oric speaks of ants crawling into his mouth while he pretended to die with 8000 other boys and men... He escaped. And now his story is told.. And how horrid it is. Oric is one of four men known to have survived the Srebrenica massacre—and his words are must read, but a warning to the faint of heart: it’s disturbing..horrible. And sadly all too real.
