It's Happening Somewhere Else

I guess this could be construed to be politics, but I don't at all mean it as such. I might get deleted, or banned, and I deserve it, if I don't present it as I meant it. What I mean is, this is ridiculous. Insane.

The sand over there in the Middle East is worth a whole lot less than it used to be worth, thanks to our oil folks who figured out how to supply ourselves with oil.

Just saying, can any of us imagine this happening is the US, name a city, any city? Can any of us imagine....no, this won't happen here. If it did, the news reporters would be crowded up and in the way of all the military and cops responding to the scene, it wouldn't last an hour, it would be over, and the news stations would be replaying it for weeks, arguing who was first on the scene.

Just saying...

cement.
big ransom bucks.

the bigger threat to oil and value is many nations and technology.

south russia has found a way to tap into shale..they are literally just hundreds of miles away from the famous east.
they have known it to be there for many decades...no way to get it.

I think of isil as meaning well for their country, but blowing the lid off is as micro managed and culted as an air national guard unit..
not even the big picture of the region or country at all.

I hope they save the boys, and manipulated men.
I lived through a bad cult... gov't funded.

peace.

I have no idea what either of you is talking about.

I'm looking forward to finally meeting you when we all get to the Gear Head Inn Stude, it'll be great to finally connect a face with a name.

Someday, P. I'm stretched kinda thin. But someday the clouds will part, the angels will descend, and you and I will finally trip the light fantastic.

I never thought waiting could be so good.

I can usually figure out where PW is coming from but Barry requires my thinkin' cap which sometimes is a couple of sizes too small.

For Barry you have to kind-of relax, clear your mind/open a channel, then his words may be sometimes a window---sometimes a path to a strange/wondrous/disturbing world. PeeWee just spouts off whatever he's thinking at the time. Both observe, report back...

I remember Orphan Annie well though not that secret decoder coin. Just a few weeks before I was born (I'm vintage 1947).
