Why does he have so many buttons on his wireless mouse?
Here... pull this finger...
NO, pull your damn finger!!! LOL
cancelled cable over 4 months ago. So peaceful now. And saving 65 bucks a month too which goes right into the silver phyzz fund ;-)
If you cancel cable/dish, etc. as well then just use the 'ol interwebs, folks. Here are some great sites for live sports, TV, series episodes, and movies:
Sports: http://www.wiziwig.tv/index.php?part=sports
TV/Cable channel live streaming: http://stream2watch.me/
Recorded TV series: http://watchseries.lt/
Movies: http://www.movie4k.to/
Best way to watch them all to eliminate all the annoying popups is to use Mozilla Firefox. Then install the add-on "adblockplus" and "flashgot".
Piece of cake after that. Merry Xmas...go save yourselves some fiat and cancel all that other bullshit and go interwebs only.
Next month will mark 13 years without cable or broadcast TV.
We actually read books.
[Maybe, just maybe, that's why my daughter is top in her class...]
Edit above...not "flashgot"...I meant "flashblock". :-)
The only thing I regret about not watching television is that I had no idea about getting my butt implants to keep up with the Kardashians and what do I find? Dollar Store is sold out!
I was thinking of my middle finger.
Not Clicking on bullshit Articles while browsing the interwebs helps too.
Just takes one loop thru OODA to get to a better place.
Try it.
What a great conversation I had when I called up to cancel my cable. They offered every promo in the book but still had no flow chart answer for "I dont watch TV. How will having much more of something I dont use at all make any difference?" ... Crickets.
They've already taken all they can through relatively "peaceful" means. Now they gotta up the fear-factor so they can justify taking more of your stuff. If they gotta go hot in order to take more of your stuff, they'll do it.
This was probably posted by somebody controlling Save-America's PC which is now compromised after visiting these malicious websites. He's making sure people can download and install the virus payload by providing us its correct name. Could start some shit on ZH if a bunch of the members login creds are now known.
add GHOSTERY. nice one.
Not had a TV since last century.
I don't invite lying manipulative people into my home.
Why, then, would I have a television?
Twas 1984 for me. Actually been just a bit over 30 years now.
not sure what year exactly, but haven't had one since the epic WHO SHOT JR on "Dallas"
when was that, anyway?
still have no idea who donnit.
ZEROHEDGE PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT...

AS much as I can find of their epic album "Remote Control", a satire of Television. Enjoy.

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM LIFE? The Tubes
What do you want from life
To kidnap an heiress
or threaten her with a knife
What do you want from life
To get cable TV
and watch it every day and night
There you sit
a lump in your chair
Where do you sleep
and what do you wear
when you're sleeping
What do you want from life
An Indian guru
to show you the inner light
What do you want from life
a meaningless love affair
with a girl that you met tonight
How can you tell when you're doin' alright
Does your bank account swell
While you're dreaming at night
How do know when you're really in love
Do violins play when you're touching the one
That you're loving
What do you want from life
Someone to love
and somebody that you can trust
What do you want from life
To try and be happy
while you do the nasty things you must
Well, you can't have that, but if you're an American citizen you are entitled to:
a heated kidney shaped pool,
a microwave oven--don't watch the food cook,
a Dyna-Gym--I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home,
a king-size Titanic unsinkable Molly Brown waterbed with polybendum,
a foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
real simulated Indian jewelry,
a Gucci shoetree,
a year's supply of antibiotics,
a personally autographed picture of Randy Mantooth
and Bob Dylan's new unlisted phone number,
a beautifully restored 3rd Reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary's baby,
a dream date in kneepads with Paul Williams,
a new Matador, a new mastodon,
a Maverick, a Mustang, a Montego,
a Merc Montclair, a Mark IV, a meteor,
a Mercedes, an MG, or a Malibu,
a Mort Moriarty, a Maserati, a Mac truck,
a Mazda, a new Monza, or a moped,
a Winnebago--Hell, a herd of Winnebago's we're giving 'em away,
or how about a McCulloch chainsaw,
a Las Vegas wedding,
a Mexican divorce,
a solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot,
or a baby's arm holding an apple?
How Every American Can Fight Misinformation and Nonsense… In One Post
America middleclass, QE, Great Society, largest army in the world, entitlements, TARP program, and the list is long, are all by products of a dollar that was anchored by Bretton Woods triangulation; then, the Petrodollar hegemony.
If there was ever a “Free-Market” or whatever you want to call it, America would have been slightly ahead of South America in 1800’s, because of its coal; but far back on the 1900’s, because South America had more oil than North America.
There was never a Free Market. US is the boss of the world. America middleclass was just lucky, as they are about to find out. Wonder Why?
a) Bretton Woods finished in 1971
b) Living off the “Petrodollar” since 1973 (to finance US lifestyle with one TV in each room) is not big enough to keep financing it
c) Now, we have the BRIC’s that are anti-Petrodollar, because the (oil) pie is getting smaller
So, refresh my mind: “Why are you wasting time about remote control and the stupid people that are holding it?”
-crickets-
go check what your .gov is trying to do with the gold lockdown and the 4 times a day notation + freeze and -24h clock revert in case of +/- 17%... i call this a crash cancellation system....
gold market and all PM market is in iminent definitive pricing to avoid any dollar/gold collapse.
my opinion about 2015 is almost definitive that we gonna facing... interesting days....
4 years, TV free.
hey grunk, broke out of the matrix 12 years ago.........your probably still having withdrawl pains......
"Next month will mark 13 years without cable or broadcast TV."
Congrats! - 20 years+ here, never felt better, never felt better informed

WARNING-- THE WEBSITE WWW.MOVIE4K.TO IS SERIOUSLY LOADED WITH CRAP THAT WILL ATTEMPT TO HIJACK YOUR BROWSER!!! DO NOT CLICK ON THE LINK!!! (What can I say, I tried it, being a sucker for "free" shit)
I do not know if this is an honest mistake by the poster of the comment by Save_America1st or not, but this crap really pisses me off.
If you have clicked, you may close the pop-up window that appears by Ctrl-Alt-Del --> Task Manager/End Task, then clear your history/cookies and run a full anti-virus scan.. do what you need to do and don't click on it again!
I do not know if running Firefox and Adblock will prevent the hostile takeover of your computer, but maybe another Zero is willing to give it a shot.
Check out Sanboxie, Sandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer.
Sandbox security software for Windows. Install and run programs in a virtual sandbox environment without writing to the hard drive.
Works great for me. Fairly simple to use.
What a bullshit warning. Why the hell are you still using Windows?
When are you people gonna learn?
Install Gentoo, FreeBSD or install any other half-decent operating system which places the burden of administration on the owner/installer, and know what it does, how it does it, and take control.
Know, learn, and understand the technology you use - it's your responisbility.
OK, Jackass.
maybe he meant "ok jackass, you forgot ubuntu / debian / redhat (dating myself) linux?"
works for me
It's not a mistake. This is Save-America's account but it's not him posting. He's been p0wned.
Task Manager? Yer problem is obvious then: Microshaft software!
A good list Save_America. I've been using most of those links for years already. If I could just add one thing: install a free proxy for watching BBC iplayer. I use the old-free 'Media Hint' for Firefox, it still works a charm.

putlocker.is is also a good site for movies (and they have TV stuff too, never looked at it). I ignore all the stuff that requires downloading still another viewer.
I use chrome and adblock.
Or you young radicals could just go to kickass.so torrents and priate your movies like good extremist radicals. Screw hollywood and the tribe that runs it.
Hey, you alright? I heard a loud blast, was that the trigger finger??, Didn't mean to hurt ya, guess you're alive so it's all good, cool, can we do it again next year.
I cut the cable 4 years ago when I realized I was paying for reruns, commercials and fake news. A lot less stress and I don't miss it. Saving the $ for valuable items in the real world.
The biggest scam is pay channels like HBO. One decent movie a month played over and over again. Trade that for netflix where you get to choose something new every time.
ditto
Roku + Netflix = $14/mo = no brainer.
Now nearly cured of matrixtardism too.
Kickass.so all the movies and televiaion you can download for free = $0 a month
I don't have HBO but they seem to be a pretty decent company. Laura Poitras's film "CitizenFour" about Edward Snowden was made with their help. And John Oliver is very outspoken on his show saying things about America you would never hear on another channel.
Its a Microsoft mouse.

We can close the "racial" divide the same way.
My thought exactly. Replace the word Terrorism with Racism and *click*.
I have been telling people for almost a decade - unplug O-TV and O-Hollywood. This includes conservatives who foolishly think Fox News is their friend.
Fox News isn't my friend?
Oh..... What am I gonna do?
Well, back to the good olde stand byes of MSNBC and CNN, I guess.
Ken O'Keefe on Press TV's The Debate - Islamic State - September 2014 Can you imagine this guy on ABC world news tonight ????hahahahahahaah

Unplug BITCHEZ
The days of "MOAR" are numbered
It's a big club and you ain't in it BITCHEZ
Did it in 2010. Result? I can't even hold a conversation with my friends, anymore. You have no idea how hopeless America is until you unplug. Then the realization is staggering.
The very best suggestion from ZH ever.
Turn that God Damned, One Eyed Mind Sucker off and keep it that way.
Throw it away. Free your mind.
(Can you believe how vacant and shallow your friends sound now that you have rid yourself of that damned box, Bollixed? Amazing ain't it?)
Tom, the sad thing is most people are too caught up in their own lives to look past the headlines. If Brian Williams, or whoever, says it's so, it's so. No fact checking, no researching to find the truth, nothing but full faith in tube and press.
I'm the 'conspiracy theorist' in my group according to a lot of friends. They have no use for any dialog that may upset the apple cart. But here's the sad fact, all of these folks have seven figure net worths. These guys aren't dummies. They simply don't want to confront anything that may prove upsetting to their current beliefs.
Boy, are they in for a surprise...
We cut the cord in 2005...we do wonder if it's made us socially retarded at times and we do feel like strangers in a strange land (the country of our own birth) as if our antenna don't bend quite the same way as the other ants in the colony.
Maybe this is part of the process in which people turn into "old people".
On the other hand when you eavesdrop on some of the other parents conversations At our kids school, they sound like contestants in reality shows; shallow and self absorbed, uninformed and unoriginal....
Meh.
So we don't have cable but we let our son watch the oldies 60's 70's shows on TV. (Twilight Zone, Emergency, Gilligan's Island, Mash etc) We figure they help assimilate our son somewhat into "classic" American culture and provide him with some cues to basic human interaction. (He gets the added benefit of seeing "his people" in cultural ascendence and he gets to skip all the "dark" vampire zombie decadence and cynical narcissism expressed in modern American culture)
There's a price to be paid for ignorance and there's a price to be paid for knowledge..... but we prefer the latter
Laverne and Shirley!
(Can you believe how vacant and shallow your friends sound now that you have rid yourself of that damned box, Bollixed? Amazing ain't it?)
Lost my best friend of 30 years to the tube..........
Abso-fuckin'-lutely. I get so tired of hearing, "Did you hear about so and so going to jail" or some such horseshit. I get tired of hearing the question of whether or not I watched the 'race' or the 'game'. NO, MOTHERFUCKERS, IVE TOLD YOU A MILLION TIMES I DONT WATCH THAT SHIT! That usually ends the conversation.
What's interesting, and more than a little frustrating at times, is that I am regarded as socially retarded for not being "in the know" about the idiotic tripe that passes for news. Frequently, it's coupled with a condescending tone, and an attitude that says "you don't know what you're missing". It turns out, I do know what I'm missing. That's why I don't keep up on the latest, greatest, ____________.
I find that refering to the "shit" in a slightly derogatory manner insults their opinion of it with out shuting them off-- for example call the Sports--stick and ball games-- makes them school yard important-- Fox, NBC, CNN et al are sit coms or day time television. Example--You watch day time TV? ---or --I lost interest in stick and ball game after I got out of school. And for real fanatics there is always the Hemingway put down--"There are only three sports: ------"
Dude, prefacing a reply with "MOTHERFUCKERS, IVE TOLD YOU A MILLION TIMES" will end ANY conversation.
haha - I stopped watching the tee-vee summer of 1980, after reading Jerry Mander's (is that a great name, or what?) book, "Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television" (1978)
from Wiki:
Well, one of the points of the book is that you really can't summarize complex information. And that television is a medium of summary or reductionism - it reduces everything to slogans. And that's one criticism of it, that it requires everything to be packaged and reduced and announced in a slogan-type form.
But let me say this: the book is not really four arguments, it's really hundreds of arguments broken down into four categories. And the categories have to do with a variety of effects that are not normally discussed. Most criticisms of television have to do with the television program content. People say if there is less violence on television or less sexism on television, or less this or less that, television would be better. If there were more programs about this or more programs about that, then we'd have "good television".
My own feeling is that that is true - that it's very important to improve the program content - but that television has effects, very important effects, aside from the content, and they may be more important. They organize society in a certain way. They give power to a very small number of people to speak into the brains of everyone else in the system night after night after night with images that make people turn out in a certain kind of way. It affects the psychology of people who watch. It increases the passivity of people who watch. It changes family relationships. It changes understandings of nature. It flattens perception so that information, which you need a fair amount of complexity to understand it as you would get from reading, this information is flattened down to a very reduced form on television. And the medium has inherent qualities which cause it to be that way.
And you're totally right; You have no idea how hopeless America is until you unplug. Then the realization is staggering.
Working office jobs became intolerable.
I highly recommend the book linked above; best gift ever for your friends who can read.
But...but...reading a book takes so much time, and the effort to comprehend it is enormous. If one must read, go to ZH for a condensed, sometimes sensationalized version. TV is so much easier, no need whatsoever to think.
Another comment on reading. My wife has a t-shirt that says this: When I work, I work hard. When I play, I play hard. When I read, I fall asleep. 'Nuf said.
All people talk about at work are TV shows. "Have you seen this? Have you seen that?" Who gives a shit about imaginary characters living out imaginary events! Another subculture is smokers - people who hang outside the building every few hours. The mere fact of them "sharing an experience" makes them soul-bound buddie. I don't smoke, so I don't belong to that group either. There are also those who hit the pubs every evening. Don't belong to that crowd.
In addition, following ZH each time I start talking stock market, mortgages or precious metals, I am guaranteed to loose all remaining audience, because people find me too damn depressing. Another passion of mine is mathematics. Good like finding someone to hold a conversation with in a typical urban environment. Nobody gives a damn.
Even within my own family I can't talk money or politics. It'd ruin the mood. Too many hold mortgages or keep money in retirement funds.
Well lets get under the hood and have some fun, you and me.
Who gives a shit about imaginary characters living out imaginary events? Judging by the number of references to South Park on ZH over the years, more than just a few I'd say.
Fuck math nigga!
This is the reason why independent radio/youtube broadcasts are so important, because they provide a platform for people like us to discuss these things with like-minded humans. Zerohedge comments section is one thing, but written conversation is not the same as hearing other people verbally express ideas or interests that we share. As social creatures we yearn to hear that other people out there are thinking or feeling what we are. Especially when we spend all day listening to colleagues discuss inane bullshit.
Weekly shows like MaxResistance and AustralianRoundtable are growing in audience every week because there are people out there like us who want to listen to people with some sense talk about topics that actually matter. MaxResistance also has a call-in line so the listener can partake, and both have live chatrooms so the audience can interact in real time.
Increasingly it is becoming obvious that the people of the Five Eyes nations are all in the same boat; even though the first show listed is based in Canada and the second in Australia, they are relevant to American, British and Kiwi listeners alike. Check them out.
JuliaS, I guess I'm lucky. My brother & sister think like I do and we swap news stories all the time about what's going on in the world. I'm also self-employed so I don't have to listen to other people's crap.
JuliaS,
There are plenty of ways to meet interesting people. Generally work is not one of those ways. Join a club or take a class that is the subject of something you like or want to learn about. Become a volunteer at a local animal rescue.
Had the same thing happen to me. At first I became a bit lonely realizing I had no commonality with several friends and most of my work associates. Then, after awhile, I asked myself why I had wasted all that time talking about garbage just to feign interest and be social? Finally I came to the conclusion I had achieved freedom of independance and they were stuck with conformity to fit in a group.
There is something very disturbing about people relinquishing their lives to live vicariously though TV shows. Some things they watch are very quite graphic; almost a modern version of the Roman Colosseum. Is it so great of a stretch from group trance to the Nuremberg Rallies?
Miffed
Miffed - you should check out a Cronenberg film from the 80's called "Videodrome."
Oh my, something tells me this won't be a feel good family Christmas show. I better wait for after the holidays or risk ruffled feathers! ;-)
Miffed
Your premonition is correct. ;-) It's a way cool and very visceral exploration of TV/video technology as mind control. What blew my mind about it back then was how it's entirely shot from the victim's point of view. I don't mean like a first-person-shooter, I mean his perceived reality is totally warped by the implanted programming, and the audience only gets to see how he perceives things. Powerful stuff, but polarizing - people either seem to love it or really hate it. The haters are missing the entire point. Don't watch it with people who find critical thought a painful exercise or impossible.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6S1FXXp_Uo
Hello Miffed, long time, no see. I just want to wish you and the Mr. the very happiest of holidays, (aka Merry Christmas)! I hope you're getting a break from the rat-race, and enjoying a well deserved break!
Merry Christmas boattrash! Unfortunately I work all this week and must be at work at 6am on Christmas. The joys of healthcare. To make up for this I have given my family all my free time and taken a break from ZH. Hopefully after the first of the year things will return to normal.
Best wishes and Love during this Christmastide. . I hope all is going well for you and your family. You are in my thoughts.
Miffed;-)
Oh, for a more simple time...I cooked Christmas dinner Sunday night, just to make sure that we had one.
I hate to hear that you drew the short stick for the holidays, but as I've said before, our jobs are not that different.
Celebrate when you can, and I really wish a great season and new year to you and your family!
Peace and Love always, BT
I unpluged in 2011 and the result is the same. "Hey man did you see McCingleBerry score 27 touchdowns yesterday?" Me...no I was working in my garden, fucked my wife, and took the kids and dogs out on a walk.
True, absolutely true. Too many others filled the space with other equivalently useless stuff. After ten years for me, few can understand what I say, let alone it's value, and I have completely exhausted my patience. I limit exposure and choose with extreme care who I spend time with. There is not much of it to go around, I'm too busy living and learning about this incredible world we have been blessed with!

In the last paragraph, the effers invoked Auschwitz, as usual.
http://www.bestgore.com/holohoax/auschwitz-plaques-six-million-myth-revi...
I don't know about the numbers at Auschwitz, but I do know that despite the fact the Germans invited in the press and Red Cross after discovering the mass graves of Poles in the Katyn Forest, killed by the Bolsheviks [Cheka], the NY Times and other American papers still blamed the Germans for the deaths.
Pretty amazing, that.
At very least, that shows how powerful the propaganda was in ww2, just as it was in ww1, when Zionists and Anglophiles did all they could to lie the United States into a war most Americans wanted no part of.
Oh, and of course, the Lusitania was carrying weapons for the Brits - lots of them - meaning it was a fair target. The German government literally published full page ads in American papers telling people not to board that ship...
The lesson seems to be that those criminalizing speech or thought may well have something they wish to hide.
How about covering up the US Liberty and the Lavon Affair? Amazing what can happen when you own the message. You get people to cheer on the same people who are literally genociding them.
During WW II, Commies (Stalin) good, Fascists (Hitler) bad.
21st century: Fascists (Ukrainian govt) good, Commies (Putin - well, he was KGB, right) bad.
Personally I dislike both international socialists (Commies) and national socialists (Fascists).
Ah, Sunstein's trolls are out today!

David Irving. Historian
David Irving's writings have upset a certain group of people, but he does the research and, IMHO, his conclusions are pretty much unassailable.
His writings regarding Churchil are definitely worth a read.
Here's a great link for reading material once you throw the idiot box out of the window.

Ever watch any BBC programs in the last 5 years? It's like white men are the go to "Red Shirts" when it comes to evil, dumb people who need to die on TV. I can't really watch Dr. Who anymore, because of the overt anti-white crap the slip in constantly. I mean who is their core demograpic on the Anglican isle?
They've been at this for 50 years but now after having the vast majority of minds right where they want them, they really amped things up x500k. I always used to watch the black tv shows and wonder why the FUCK everytime the white guy was on, he was some fucking dork, uncool, idiot racist doofus. Amd then I was like, "wait a minute here, black people don't have money to produce this shit or to air this on their networks. Who the fuck is producing this shit and who owns the network?" BAM, GUESS WHO? It rhymes with who. I always screamed this to everyone else and pointed it out but no one ever gave a fuck.
'There is no racial bigotry here. I do not look down on niggers, kikes, wops or greasers. Here you are all equally worthless.'

BTW, it's not called "BAM', it's called "BET".
I love Wendy's! :-)
. . . I mean who is their core demograpic on the Anglican isle?
Considering that the most popular name for newborn babies in the UK is now Muhammad (when including all of its variations), BBC seems to have a good handle on its core demographic.
Apparently 14 Mossad agents frequent ZH...
I would have preferred seeing a finger on a trigger... Just sayin.
I thought I was going to see the internationally recognized "middle finger".
ZH now rehashing old comic strips. How sad.
You Jealous Mel? or would you rather use your face as a comic
And the quality of troll has fallen considerably. At least MDB was funny.
Poles and Jews as friends.
Now THAT's funny!
MDB was hilarious and I never thought of her as a troll but just as having the driest sense of humour ever.
I say her because I offered to marry her, she was so funny.
I still hope MDB was a her and shows up at my house one day.
MDB please come back, us original Hedgers miss you!
MDB still turns up from time to time, just much less frequently than the good old days.
Dupe
What's old is new again (and comics are quick and concise).
It's interesting to see society rail on the same issues decade after decade with only slight variation.
We'll be rehashing old comic strips until we don't NEED to (or until some kind of reset, at which point we need to remember old comics as prophetic)...

Internet and all still XP!
Banks paying big bucks to MS to support their aging ATM's
Dedicated private lines.

A lot are now going wireless. Like the little ones you see in gas stations and convenience stores. Then connect via a SSL connection to a Web site to get routed to the bank host....
As time goes by there will be more transitioning to wireless connections of one sort or another especially in the more remote locations or as a backup in case of cable outages. The physical lines offer more "security", whatever that means in the age of NSA global surveillance.

1. Turn off TeeVee
2. Don't enlist
3. Don't vote
The down votes say all that need be said about why this country is in such miserable shape, as those who willingly support the status (statist) quo accordingly perpetuate it. They therefore have nothing to complain about, as regime change (i.e., the revolving door of partisan politics) isn't change at all. On the contrary, it's how Einstein defined insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
Please vote. I've said this here many times. There are some groups that always vote. If you don't vote, then their candidates simply get elected, and decide who gets to pay the taxes, which is you. And who then gets the money, which is them. This is especially important in local elections.
Right on cue the 3:00 o'clock ( No news ) take down, takes a hell of a lot of money to do this is unison....

That's OK, KWN says GDXJ is going to soar to the moon.
Any year now.
Yes. Takes a hell of a lot of derivatives to do this in unison. Thanks to Congress for backstopping those derivatives with the public purse. Crimenibus.
bbutt .... TeeVee means Big Pharma can warn humans over and over how the drugs they peddle will kill or disable them for life.
If you haven't watched the nightly news lately tune in.
It is a cavalcade of hysteria and histrionics.
Weather! Unrest in the Middle East! The enemy!
All in a near breathless cadence of fear.
"All in a near breathless cadence of fear"
I'm glad it's different here
Here it's a breathy cadence of fear, seductive like Ava Gardner reading us some doom porn.
I always say, if you want to know exactly what the government wants you to think at any time, tune in to Brian Williams.
It's pretty insane when you first watch The News™ after you've been away from it for awhile. The propaganda is so obvious, so blatant, it's like someone beating you over the head.
It's funny how Faux news and MSNBS can get everybody thinking the same thing when they want to.
Watch "Meet The Press" if you want to scream & pull your hair out!
I prefer to call it "Meet the Depressed".
McMol, I wish you'd comment more. I always learn something, can totally relate or just laugh my ass off at your comments. Thanks.
+1 agree - many times McMol has made me wash computer screen from sprayed liquids.
Hasn't really changed for decades. The only difference I've noticed is the touchy, crybaby stuff (to attract women viewers) they've added. Like a story about some dog finding it's way back home after getting lost on vacation. It wanders across country, dodging vehicles on the interstate, escaping from certain death at a county dog pound and showing up on it's family's doorstep the day before Christmas with bloody paws and ten pounds lighter. It's a Christmas miracle!
Agree, but at the same time it's amazing how much is left OUT.
IF news organizations really wanted to peruse the world and write about conflict, we could watch a different story every minute of every day. THEY ALL show the same THING (stress on singular) - (and thanks AP) - vs. mass protests and keeping us up to date on 'old news', that should remain front-and-center, like Fukashima. Watched BBC World the other night about people living below-ground in Syria. A father and daughter living in an underground room for 6 months so far! Didn't see a peep on American news, and that's STILL BBC (their MSM). If more of middle America saw it, some might imagine themselves in that situation because they looked like normal people, not civilian casualties in blown out rubble.
There's so much going on, but there's a point the MSM will not cross because they know if people realize what is 'allowed' to take place by the powerful or that in fact normal people are trying to fight the same forces we should be trying to fight, it might get people fired up into a tizzy. It takes a lot to get Americans to react - but when we do, we go full force with brute strength, intelligence, blind ignorance, peer pressure, whatever the reason, we can turn into a nation on the RAGE virus (28 Days). - NOTHING can stop us from pure insanity.
So, we see only so much; that way we remain docile and will continue to worry if we are wearing the latest headphones...
...it's amazing how much is left OUT.
What's left out is best described by a four letter word. NEWS.
But then again, the 6 O'clock News isn't news at all, it's today's progaganda missive.
Your viewership and cable service support it. Stop being a serf and enabling them.
All of these consecutive storms of the century keep knocking out my reception and I am only 40.
It runs with the trading cycles.
All is hell = encourage the bears.
All is well = massacre the bears.
They are becoming more desperate as bear meat becomes much more scarce.
I only engage in MSM so that I know what the controllers want me to believe.
I then go out and do my own research.
Believe little of what you read, and half of what you see.

Dr. Engali, I like your idea. Though let's use my finger, it's a bit thicker and longer.
For some reason I'm comfortable with that
