The Symbolism Hidden Within "THE WIZARD of OZ"
~ author unknown
The "Wizard of Oz", written by L. Frank Baum, is not a mere child's story.
What is "Oz" a symbol for? Ounces.
What is measured in ounces? Gold.
What is the yellow brick road? Bricks or ingot bars of gold.
The character known as the Straw Man represents that fictitious, ALL CAPS, legal fiction - a PERSON, the Federal U.S. Government created with the same spelling as your birth name.
Remember what the Straw Man wanted from the Wizard of Oz? A Brain! No juristic person - legal fiction - paper corporation has a brain because he/she has no breath of life.
What did he get in place of a brain? A certificate: a Birth Certificate for a new legal creation.
He was proud of his new legal status, plus all the other legalisms he was granted. Now he becomes the epitome of the brainless sack of straw who was given a certificate in place of a grain of common sense.
Now, what about the Tin Man? Does Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) recall anything to mind? The poor TIN Man just stood there mindlessly doing his work until his body literally froze up and stopped functioning.He worked himself to death because he had no heart nor soul.
He's the heartless and emotionless creature robotically carrying out his daily task as though he were already dead. He's the ox pulling the plow and the mule toiling under the yoke. These days, his task masters just oil him nightly with beer and place him in front of a hypnotic television until his very existence no longer has any meaning or value. His masters keep him cold on the outside and heartless on the inside in order to control any emotion or feeling that might arise.
The Cowardly Lion was always too frightened to stand up for himself. Of course, he was a bully and a big mouth when it came to picking on those smaller than he. (Have you ever noticed how bullies are really the biggest cowards? They act as though they have great courage, but, in reality, have none at all. They roar, but with no teeth of authority to back them up.) When push came to shove, the Cowardly Lion always buckled under and whimpered when anyone of any size or stature challenged him. He wanted courage from the Grand Wizard, so he was awarded a medal of "official" recognition. Now, although remaining a coward, his official status allowed him to be a bully, but with officially recognized authority. (He's not unlike the Attorneys who hide behind the Middle Courts of the Temple Bar.) et al ad infinitum.
What about the trip through the field of poppies? Did you notice how this had no narcotic effect on the Straw Man (no brain) or the Tin Man (no heart or soul)? They weren't real people, so drugs could not influence them.
The Wizard of Oz was written at the turn of the century, so how could the author have known America was going to be drugged?
The Crown has been playing the drug cartel game for centuries.
Just look up the history of Hong Kong and the Opium Wars.
The Crown already had valuable experience conquering all of China with drugs, so why not the rest of the world?
What was the Emerald City? The Federal Reserve System.
Who finally exposed the Wizard for what he really was?
Toto, the ugly (or cute, depending on your perspective) and somewhat annoying little dog. Toto means "in total, all together; Latin in toto."
What was it that the witch wanted after she alleged that the little dog had bitten her? TOTO. ... everything. Notice how Toto was not scared of the Great Wizard's theatrics, yet he was so small in size, compared to the Wizard, that no one seemed to notice him?
The smoke, flames and holographic images of Oz were designed to frighten people into doing as the Great Wizard commanded.
Toto simply padded over, looked behind the curtain (the COURT, etc.), saw it was a scam, started barking until others paid attention to him and came to see what all the barking was about. Who was behind the curtain?
Just an ORDINARY PERSON controlling the levers that created the illusion of the Great Wizard's power and authority.
When Toto pulled back the curtain and completely exposed him, the charade was at an end. (The veil hiding the corporate legal fiction and its false courts was removed.)
The Wizard's game was UP. What was he after all? ... a con-man. A FRAUD.
We can see, in this tale, just how loud the bark from a little dog can be.
How about YOUR bark? How big is it?
Most of us remain silent and wait to be given whatever food and recognition, if any, by our legal master.
Let us not forget those pesky flying monkeys. What perfect mythical creatures to represent the Bar Association Attorneys who attack and control the little people for the Great Crown Wizard, the powerful and grand Bankers of Oz: GOLD!
How, finally, was the evil witch destroyed? .... pure, clean water LIQUIDATION!
How, at last, did Dorothy get home? She simply clicked her heels. She always had the power, and SO DO WE!
What would it take to expose the Wizard for what he is, tearing away his veils?
We each need only a brain, a heart and soul --- and COURAGE.

In the book, Dorthy wears silver slippers (not ruby slippers). Silver had the "magical" power to free you, and that is why the Witch of the West (West Coast rail road and mining interests) wanted control of the silver slippers.

Tommy Emmanuel CGP
Dude
Did you pencil that portrait of Tommy? awesome....
Your taste in music mirrors my own, (Zappa who I've seen live 3 times-RIP and now TE) what part of the planet do you hail from?
For those who don't know Tommy Emmanuel feast your ears... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kd3-NncMDPM
Tommy doing what he loves...
Cheers
I am busy perfecting the art of digital water color simulation. My plan is to finish the prints with actual water colors and ink pens.
So far I am only doing this with portraits of people I admire. It is more personal and expressive than merely saying I love so and so's music or art etc.
Plus it is something positive to keep me in a healthy state of mind.
Even I get tired of looking at shitheads all day long ;-)
Sorry if you've answered this already but is the one of Zappa going to be available?
Yes: banzai7institute@gmail.com
Confounded finger pickers leave us flat pickers in the dust sometimes. This was just great. Thanks WB7!
Have some flat...
Damn! Instead of having a few hot licks to throw in occasionally, he plays hot licks all the time with crunchy Mickey Baker chords he puts together so fast it makes my head swim. Most guitarists can't play an electric with light strings as fast as he plays these Maton acoustics. I gotta get caught up on this guys work. Thanks again WB7.
Nice! He mixes styles up like Junior Brown throwing Hendrix into the middle of "Turkey in the Straw". Haven't seen many vintage Telecasters like that either. Thanks again.
Jeez, that was phenomenal... and I'd never even heard of him! (or the other four “Certified Guitar Players”)
Thanks WB7
You really oughta look for "Classical Gas" (TE's version) if you want your synapses terminally fried. -Fuckwit
He looks like Jamie Dimon? Practising for his next career. Hopefully.
Dimon can't play for shit.
Play or Pay?
