Bringing in the New Year with a Carburetor

You've probably heard about the 'tic tac' UFOs (UAP - Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon) and seen the Navy footage of the ship tracking them. You've heard the government's admission that there was a 5 year, $22 million project to study them.

My response was immediate: "Bullshit"
The footage you saw was most likely real - I'm no expert. Interviews back it up.
The 'admission' of the 5 year study is ridiculous for anybody taking a glance at the topic. I can tell you without doubt that the government (most likely a compartmentalized group) has been studying UFOs since at least 1947 (Roswell) - probably earlier (there were three official explanations of Roswell). It's apparent that the topic has been studied by the accounts of the events:

• serious-looking men in suits, coming to the debriefings, confiscating all documents and footage, and saying 'this never happened and you are all sworn to secrecy'. [the famous Men in Black]
• Military officials telling residents of Roswell that if they ever talk about the event, their bones will be buried so far out, they will never be found.
• a plane leaving Roswell the evening of the discovery, going to Ft Worth and Ohio (Wright base, now Wright Patterson). This is documented.
• a saucer crashed in Roswell, per the army base commander. The next day, it was a weather balloon, per the commander's boss(es).
• Reports forwarded to branches of the military or government, in spite of the official statement that they are no longer studying UFOs.
• Congresspersons and presidents have asked to be briefed on UFOs. They have been refused and told they don't have a sufficient security clearance to know.
• The government has repeatedly lied to us on the topic, as well as deliberately misdirected (swamp gas?)
• The US is called in to help other countries with UFO incidents.

Does it really look like we aren't studying UFOs? 

In addition to the above, I smelled additional shenanigans. Watch what's coming.... whether we're getting 'slow disclosure' or being prepped, something is going to happen. Whatever happens might be manufactured to look like something it isn't, to benefit a powerful group. Hypothetical scenario: we now have a Space Force. We have been studying UFOs for 5 years. 'Something' anomalous appears in the skies. Oh no, it's UFOs! We're obviously going to have to heavily invest in our Space Force, to defend the planet. Who benefits? The only group that benefits from all wars: the Military Industrial Complex.

The hypothetical scenario wasn't mine... it belonged to the father of rocketry, Werner von Braun, as told to Carol Rosin. So far, all of his predictions on reasons for wars have come true. The final one is space.

As for 'disclosure', I remained incredulous.

What I didn't put together, til watching this video, was the effect this particular bit of 'disclosure' was having on the larger debate. The topic has made it into the mainstream. Even the talking heads are talking about it, and not saying conspiracy theory, little green men, or whackos. Mainline publications are discussing it. So the topic is now out there, with the complete absence of slurs. Something is getting out there. I remain doubtful that it's the full story, or even the right reason, but we'll see..... I encourage you to think before you react to whatever surfaces.

Absent my above objections, this is a good thing.



Unrelated (I hope): reports of large, multiple drones over Nebraska and Colorado. No one is stepping up to claim them. They're large, so probably not hobby use.  Let's do the science: shoot one down and see who comes knocking.



Dear lefty

• Have you heard any good New Years' resolutions?
• Yes.

PRO TIP: when setting up Bluetooth devices, make sure there are no other Bluetooth devices in the area. Attempting to pair headphones with both a laptop and cell phone was enough to drive the Dalai Lama into a homicidal frenzy. In the end, I successfully connected the phone to the laptop, but only when the headphones are on.




Absolutely infuriating to me is the sugary beverage taxes, as applied in Philadelphia and other cities. While the studies may or may not be sound, we can all agree that it's probably not the greatest idea to consume mass quantities of soda, in America, we (allegedly) have the freedom to make that decision for ourselves. Until Nanny State stepped in. Label the crap out of it, like ciggies and booze, if it makes you happy. Don't make my decisions for me. It was also pointed out that the tax has a disproportionate effect on lower income African Americans in the city, who drink the stuff because it's cheaper and have less ability to go to suburbs to buy it without the tax (I'm just repeating it).  With this logic, we'll need to tax red meat (more), fried foods, candy, cheese, and anything that tastes good. Do I agree on ciggie and booze taxes? No. Any time more money is needed, they pile it on cigs, because less people will complain. I think smoking is disgusting, but we're all free to make our own decisions on it. How many people are killed in drunk driving incidents, yet we turn away and keep buying drinks, as if that can't happen to us (mixed drinks are also taxed in Philly).

Here's another sweet tidbit: the World Health Organization concluded that taxes of 20 to 50 percent(!) are most likely to be effective. No. Absolutely not. Let the rest of the world do what it wants, but we're a sovereign nation. We should not be dictated to by the UN or the WHO, in addition to being able to make our own decisions on food.  Did the Founding Fathers fight, die, and bring forth this country so its government could try to dictate what you can eat via taxes?

"The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom."   Isaac Asimov

Iran's Supreme Leader, Great and Powerful Beardo 'Muff' Mohammed, says to president Trump:

"1st: You can’t do anything. 

2nd: If you were logical —which you’re not— you’d see that your crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan… have made nations hate you."

I can't decide whether to go with 'even a broken clock is right twice a day' or 'he makes a point.'

• One quarter of world's pigs died in a year due to swine fever in China
• the rest took office

The US, Europe, Russia, and China are launching rovers to Mars next year, to look for signs of life. This explains our taxes. To the best of my faulty memory, we already sent one. It didn't find any signs of life. Will the next one(s) not find life differently?  Hey, I've got an idea: why not combine efforts; it will cut costs and provide some cooperation/collaboration. Maybe we already did... the rovers' AI will join them all together and become sentient.

New Years' Resolutions
it was inevitable...

1. avoid becoming a social media 'influencer'  [I've got a head start on this]
2. remove memes from the internet, then the planet
3. a Special Place for everyone who takes an IQ test and flunks
4. Not to kill anymore coworkers  [don't ask what my resolutions are at a work meeting, ok?] 
5. to remember that if there are no pills on the table, I already took them. I think.

I'm still wondering about the Coast Guard getting malwared.

Do you feel protected yet? Do ya?

It's a new year and you're probably asking yourself how the KGB bugged typewriters during the Cold War... in the American embassy.

In yet another shocking event, a 'smart camera' owner is getting pics from other random peoples' homes. I need a little graphic that says TOLD YOU SO. And if I had any talent at all, I'd make one.

Didja ever notice the sameness in the names of pr0n stars?

If there were only a way to export them and run some stats.

Oh shit - did I say that out loud again?

For normal people, without my kind of intellectual curiosity, you can check out what your pr0n name would be. This tool proved invaluable at my last job, where I had to explain cunnilingus to my female coworkers. No, it wasn't a fireable offense.

SJW Shit

A company called American Girl just released the first doll with hearing loss.

Other dolls coming later this year:

• Irritable Bowel Barbie
• Quad Amputee Carl
• Deaf Dumb and Blind Kid
• Dyslexic Debbie
• Depressed Dora
• Total Paralysis Pete
• Trans Toni/Tony

The president of Marvel Studios says a trans character is coming 'very soon' in a film.

Hey Bob, watch what happens when I hit the afterburners!

Unidentified Flying Objects - the Disclosure Debacle

UFO Disclosure

This is gonna be a whopper.

You have been warned.

The government just admitted that the Pentagon spent $22 million, at the behest of Harry Reid, on the study of ufos. People (and radio/tv hosts) are starting to use the D-word --> Disclosure.

I'm here to tell you I smell a rat. That's right, I'm calling Shenanigans.

Things have to be pretty bad before I call Shenanigans.

If you're in the intelligence business or if you like to sound like a badass on Faceyspaces, you refer to this as an OP, meaning operation, or psyop. This is CIA-speak for Running One Past You.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if this bit of news were correct; $22 million was spent on a ufo study in the 2000s. But before we consider the reason for this admission, let me give you a little history, ok?

• In 1947, something went down on a ranch near Roswell, NM. Roswell Army Air Force Base (there was no separate Air Force then) was the first nuclear bomb drop facility in the country. There are official records of debris being flown to Texas and Wright-Patterson AFB, in Ohio, which is a test and research facility. There are hundreds of witnesses on record, some who saw the debris. 
• Shortly after Roswell, there was the Battle Over L.A. Something really huge hovered over Los Angeles. We called out the armed forces, who threw everything, including the kitchen sink, at it, with absolutely no effect. When it was done hovering, it simply went away. This was the first time 'weather balloon' was used as an excuse.
• In 1952, a flotilla of somethings flew over the White House on two consecutive weekends. When the interceptors got close, they disappeared. There are many witnesses and radar traces.
• 1967 At Malmstrom Air Force Base, a large orange light appeared in the sky and came toward the base. Frightened calls were made and the captain went out to see it. And he saw a bright orange light/object flying over the base, in an intelligent matter. Shortly thereafter, he discovered that every one of the nuclear missiles had gone offline. It took days to put them back online.
• In New Years 1980, at a joint UK/US base, over 2 or 3 nights, there were lights and objects flying over and around the (nuclear-equipped) base. One night there was a patrol sent out into Rendlesham Forest to look for the source of the lights. There is a recording available of the leader, narrating as they went along. They watched something land. Some soldiers interacted with it.
• At a school in Ruwa, Zimbabwe, a silver craft landed. There were many witnesses, as well as children who spoke with the being(s) that came out of it.
• Footage from gun cameras, radar traces, reliable human witnesses, pilots, and airports have provided detailed information on sightings and landings. In many cases, a member of the armed forces attended a debriefing, sometimes with unidentified men in dark suits. The men disappear with the evidence and swear everybody to secrecy ("This never happened.")
• When there is an incident in other countries, the US military is frequently called in to help (documented in Mexico, Canada, and Brazil).
• On two occasions, massive ships flew across Phoenix, Arizona - the Phoenix Lights. These humongous black ships flew very slowly and hovered in spots. The government said it was flares. Hovering flares. Mile wide flares that moved in perfect precision.
• In 2008, there were thousands of witnesses to the large object that flew over Stephenville, Texas. Several months later, the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) released its report. The Air Force said it was reflections, then said there were F-16s on a training mission. The Air Force always knows where its planes are, except when a convenient excuse is required. Even if they weren't lying, there's a very important fact that's not mentioned: the ufo flew near then President George Bush's ranch in Texas. There is a No Fly Zone over the White House and many other important buildings. There is a huge No Fly Zone over the president's ranch, yet this object came close to it. Do you think a ufo would be allowed to breach a No Fly Zone without the equivalent of World War III breaking out in an attempt to protect the president?
• In Socorro, New Mexico, Lonnie Zamora, a police officer, saw a craft on the ground with occupants walking around near it.
• In 2006, something appeared over United Terminal C at Chicago's O'Hare airport. There was obviously no shortage of trained professionals witnessing the event. The object posed a great risk for airplanes taking off and landing. When it was done hovering, it shot up through the clouds and left a hole. Two years later, a witness came forward with his account, pictures and video. The event made the news and promptly disappeared.
• Way up there in Shag Harbour, Nova Scotia, where you can cut the Canadian accent with a knife, something flew into the water. It was spotted by an airplane captain, a ship's captain and crew, and many civilians. More happened than got mentioned in the official reports. A glowing object plunged under water and was chased by the locals and two navies. It was followed by the US Navy, where it watched a second glowing object 'fix' the first one, then both of them flew away into the air.
• As a dummy nuclear missile left its pad at Vandenberg Air Force Base in 1964, a small object maneuvered around it, firing in a beam at several points. The missile failed, taking a dive into the Pacific Ocean. The Air Force has the 35mm film, as seen by Lieutenant Robert Jacobs.
• In 2001, a group of highly qualified witnesses gave testimony at the National Press Club. This was The Disclosure Project. They told of witnessing events that have been suppressed, gave supporting data, and swore that they would testify before Congress, under oath. This was put together by Dr. Steven Greer, an emergency room physician. People feel strongly about Greer, but even if you think he's a fraud, watch the testimony - these people are not frauds.

Do you honestly believe we haven't studied ufos?

This is the Pentagon, backed by the Military Industrial Complex. 

They don't have defense plans and haven't studied crash debris?

The Pentagon, where Colonel Phil Corso picked up bits of alien technology from a filing cabinet, and took it to large corporations, so they could analyze and use the technology. The government is subject to information disclosure laws; the private sector isn't. You can read Colonel Corso's account in his book, The Day After Roswell.

Ben Rich of Lockheed's Skunk Works, which came up with many top secret military planes, said we already have the technology to take ET home.

So Why?

It has not gone unnoticed that a lot of ufo incidents happen around nuclear installations. Is someone trying to tell us something?

One possibility is to reveal that ufos are real, to justify billions of dollars to be spent on defense projects. Billions to the Military Industrial Complex. It sure as hell worked in Iraq, Afghanistan, and countless others.

Some say the government is going to use this study as the prelude to disclosure. Some say this is distraction from other big events, like pedophilia and sexual abuse, going way up the chain.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

The US has spent untold amounts of time, money, and effort denying the existence of ufos. There have been three different explanations for Roswell, all full of holes at the time they were offered. People have been threatened, lives have been lost, and a lot of fingers have been pointed to make people look like lunatics. Conspiracy Theorist is a term invented by the CIA for this purpose.

Remember: disclosure is intentional. Nothing happens without it being worth it for the organization.

The definition of ufo is unidentified flying object. Unidentified, meaning we don't know what it is. It says nothing about aliens. It's just that there's something up there. Some of it is ours. Dark projects we simply don't know about. Some of it is not ours.
