Wha…? 

The taxman readeth: The IRS says it can read emails without a warrant! That’s right.. the ACLU has obtained internal IRS documents in which they tell themselves they can read pretty much any form of communications whenever they want to..

UN DONE? MISSILES LOWERED

Caption this.?

Rumors in China say that the United States created their bird flu. Fears in the rest of the world now that the bird flu may turn into the 1918 of 2013.. 

Nothing to fear? US races to create bird flu vaccine.. just in case.

H7N9 has Tamiflu resistance..

The aliens among us may be.. us

Science is confirming something that has been around for a long, long time: The notion that we are star people.  But does this mean we have been created by aliens? Some are realistically exploring that possibility.. and not just those who believe in the 10th planet..

And serious publications are asking it.. such as DISCOVERY.. They are running an article tonight “Is an Alien Message Embedded In Our Genetic Code?

Have you any news of Art Bell's return?

I wish I had some better news.. but nothing earth breaking yet. Recently the owner of the Facebook fan site, People Who Miss Art Bell on C2C, asked Bell directly what is happening with any potential deal. He actually answered and said he cannot speak about anything on whether he’d come back ‘til a deal is done.’

What I worry about is his age.. 
And listening lately to George Noory it’s clearly evident as to why either Art Bell or someone else must take over the show—or it needs to be canceled. I cannot believe how bad Noory has gotten lately..

I used to talk somewhat on a regular basis with Art Bell through email and Facebook. But I am sure he gets more than thousands of messages a day..

Nonetheless, I’ll keep following up and hopefully Art Bell will give news soon. 

Dreams and nightmares.

I had a surely strange dream last night involving several things. To make a long nightmare short, there were a few things that stuck out.. a long-lost friend of mine was in it. He owed a spa.. and his number was 717-747-and I forget the rest.. He lived in a place called “Normandy, PA.” And when I got home from visiting him, my father was driving up the yard in a car he doesn’t own anymore, and he fell into a giant sinkhole.. and then I wake up and see a Russian city is being eaten alive by sinkholes. I don’t see any truly correlation, but … it irritates me when I have dreams like this and am left wondering if there is anything to it..

Samara is the Russian city being eaten alive by sinkholes..

You're as old as you feel.. right?

And the new generation feels a lot older than their parents at the same age!
Really..
Dutch researchers are telling us something that maybe we all had a little hunch about for a while: Kids these days are obese, unhealthy, have high blood pressure, and are fixated on computer screens. While the best of the best bloggers on TV are thin and svelte, it appears that, if the Dutch study is correct and believable, then the majority of the youth these days are really about 15 years older healthwise..

There is something under the Sea

Amazing stuff..

There is something under the Sea

…of Galilee.

An amazing story is in the works from the Middle East. Researchers have found a human-made structure under the Sea of Galilee. It was made on land.. and covered by water as the Sea rose..

Also noteworthy: The mysterious structure is said to weigh about 60,000 tons and rises about 32 feet..

Meet the bearded woman.

She’s loud, she’s proud, and she has grown a monumental face of hair..

Meet the woman, that’s right, the woman, who is a mom and also a proud owner of a thick goatee.

She may put some men to shame..

Hopefully she won’t start a trend.

Serious question for any plant lovers out there: I have a shamrock plant, and tonight when a thunderstorm started, the shamrock plant drooped down and moved away from the window.. I know there is a certain luck of the Irish that comes with any shamrock plant but is there also an intelligence I was not aware of?

Will he launch today?

What will we do?

After almost 6 years of marriage and 2+ years of having a child, a big night out is going to get a Dirt Devil. Exciting stuff!

Forgive me for some more military related postings over the next several years

But today my nephew became took his oath and went to Paris Island to become a Marine. It’s been a weighty day, emotion wise.. and it portends to only get more intense as his training intensifies and world conflicts brew. So yes, North Korea  Afghanistan, and all the other ‘Stans’ and strange arenas of global strife suddenly take center stage in my family’s life.

We are proud of this young man, Shawn “Mere” as he will now be known. We know he can do it.
And we also know he understands the oath he took today is one of the most sacred and noble things he has ever done…

He’s surely more brave than I ever was at the age of 18..
