Time Traveler Caught In Charlie Chaplin Film.

What a nice accent that young man has.

A Pair Of Crazy, Conspiracy-Themed Bills I Got Once.

A couple of real bills I recieved as part of my tipout from a bar I used to work at about 5 years ago:

$10: "The case of Donna Dial of Round Rock, Texas was a sad one of a bright young woman gone insane with paranoid schizophrenia purely from a biological dysfunction in her brain. This is obvious to anyone who watched her ceaselessly wandering & chaotic description of her beliefs & the tears of her mother that witnessed her decline before Donna killed her and her landlord in a delusion (watch "The System *illegible*" on CourtTV). But the prosecutor in Williamson County insisted she was sane, which resulted in Dial being sent to prison rather than a mental hospital. This barbarity could only occur where primitive religion saturates the culture as it does there. Remember Thomas Willis. Tax exemptions for religion coerce Atheists to subsidize it. National God mottoes coerce pretend religious belief. These laws are unjust and unconstitutional. NO JUST GOD WOULD EVER ALLOW EVIL. FREE WILL IS A BAD JOKE. Do you understand that insanity (what the supernatural religious call "demon possession") is a purely internal neurological organizational dysfunction that can be transmitted by verbal command?"

$5: "Somebody ought to tell the truth about the bible. The preachers dare not because they would be driven from their pulpits. Professors dare not, because they would lose their salaries. Politicians dare not, they would be defeated. Editors dare not, they would lose subscribers. Merchants dare not because they might lose customers. Men of fashion dare not, because they might lose caste. Even clerks dare not because they might be discharged. And so I thought I might do it myself."- Robert G Ingersoll (About The Holy Bibile, 1894 y.b.m.*) *y.b.m.= years of a big myth. IS THIS THE SAME GOD THAT ORDERED THE SLAUGHTER OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN (deut 3:24 & 21:17-18). Read The Bible According To Mark Twain. Religious bragging notwithstanding, the bible is not the greatest work of literature. The book of numbers is mind-numbing. Twain and Shakespeare are better. Tax exemptions for religion coerce Atheists to subsidize it. National God mottoes coerce pretend religious belief. These laws are unjust and unconstitutional."

Seriously, even clerks.

Machete Race War - Glenn Beck Was Developed To Counter Alex Jones

Aw, shuggidty duggity.

On Alex Jones' show Sunday, he elaborates how he was offered Glenn Beck's job and quotes from "The Overton Window". Man, do I ever hope this turns into a thing. I'd love to see this feud escalate.

Oh, and something about a race war.

"Pre Crime" Tops Google Trends. Alex Jones Takes Credit.

In response to this article, Alex Jones asked his listeners to Google the term "pre crime" to find it. In response, the term "Pre Crime" hit the top Google Trending topic. In response to that, Jones's site Prison Planet blogged about it. In response to that, Prison Planet's article about the Google Trending status of the term "Pre Crime" is now the second most popular article under that same search term.

Wikipedia "Editors" Censor The Bilderberg Group's Nazi Ties.

Well, that's certainly a provocative headline, I wonder what kind of evidence will be present- OH HOLY HELL:



Wow. That's some website you've got there, www.bilderberg.org. Nothing remotely crazy looking there at all.

It's like a checklist:

Hyperlinks crammed into each other into a dense, Timecube-esque mess? Check!
Tons of unintentionally hilarious animated GIF's: Check!
*Bonus Points: Swastikas AND Twin Towers!*
Talk of the end times mixed in with conspiracy: Check!
Talk Of Prophecies: Check!

Holy crap. Enjoy.

Wait, The Ghostbusters Cartoon Was Based On A Live Action Show?

Okay, before you write me off as touched in the head, I'm not talking about The Real Ghostbusters based off the Ivan Reitman /Dan Ackroyd / Harold Ramis movie. I'm talking about the cartoon Filmation's Ghostbusters. The one with this intro:



I watched this cartoon a few times as a kid, and had absolutely no idea that it was based off an earlier live action show:

John Cheese Shows Off His Ghost Hunting Prowess.

Looks like John Cheese is going at the ghost hunting thing solo for a little while. If you don't know who John Cheese is, amongst other badassery he's the 'John' from the book John Dies At The End, which you should totally go out and buy. Right now. I'll include an Amazon link, just in case you're agoraphobic.

He's also recently started a new site, Trucker Logic. Only has a few articles up so far, but they're funny. So is this video, where Cheese uses his experience in ghost hunting (and maybe a dose of soy sauce) to debunk some famous viral ghost videos.

I have to admit, however, that I was sorta hoping a new video in the JDatE Youtube channel meant that another round of the Alternative Reality Game was beginning. This is good too, tho.

Surefire Way To Triple Money You Already Have, Without Investing!

Let's face it. The current economic times are shaky. But I was recently clued in by a recent email about a fact overlooked by the media:

Apparently the dollar has fallen so low, and the bullion value has risen to the point where pennies are now worth more in copper than their currency value!

They're the only non-fiat currency we have left in this country! Empty your piggy banks before they drop the grid on us! AAAAAAUGH!

Just kidding. Don't go trying to melt down your pennies - First of all, it's a hoax. And it's not just a hoax, it's illegal. And it's not just illegal, it won't work.

Pennies made before 1982 are worth a fraction of a penny more in copper, but you physically couldn't carry enough to make a significant profit (a 24-ounce bottle, filled to the brim, is about $16 worth of pennies which would rake in about $4 profit, roughly).

Anyway, forget about all of that. What I'm about to suggest is perfectly legal, definitely has the potential to at least triple money you already have, and could be used as an excuse to spend an afternoon with family (or a really boring date)...



This, my friends, is a "wheat penny". Instantly identifiable, even common wheat pennies are worth 3 cents to collectors, as long as they are in reasonably good condition. And there is still plenty of them in circulation. As a personal experiment, I went through the change bucket in my room, which had about $8 in pennies. In about 10 minutes, I found I had 5 3-cent wheats and even 2 5-cent ones! It may not be worth your time to dig around your house for a couple of extra cents worth of coinage, but if it's something you keep an eye out for and seperate as soon as a cashier hands you change, it can quickly add up!

Happy hunting!

I know even the meme of using this clip is kinda old, but it's still so hard to believe the country has swung so far to the right that cornball down-home wisdom from Mayberry sounds downright, um, liberal... almost leftist.

The Conet Project, And Why You May Wanna Hold Onto Your Old TV.

We pretty much all know by now that television is switching over to a digital signal next year, and without a converter box, we will no longer be able to receive our favorite shows. That's hardly news.

But what's gonna happen to that huge bandwidth of broadcast signal? It's not going to simply dissappear... There is plenty of speculation as to who is going to be using those signals, from cell phones to emergency broadcasts to homeland security.

What about those of us curious enough to hold on to our regular tvs, or happen to have some of those old-school radios that pick up TV signals? What do you think we may be able to find scanning those "unused" frequencies?

Have you ever heard of a Numbers Station?

Scanning the shortwave dial, occasionally you will come across a funny little robotic voice (usually female) reading off a series of seemingly random letters and numbers. Reports of accidentally finding such stations date back to World War I, which could make them among the earliest radio broadcasts. References to them have been used as plot points in films since Jean Cocteau's 1950 film Orphee, appearing in Red Dawn, Toy Soldiers, Vanilla Sky and the television series Lost.

Funny thing is, nobody (at least nobody you or I are likely to know in our lifetime) has any idea where these signals are really coming from, or what their purpose is.

In 1997, Iridial Disks released a 4-CD collection called The Conet Project a found-sound project based on the work of numbers station enthusiast Akin Fernandez. The collection has been circulating around the underground since. As of recently, Iridial has released the collection as a series of free downloads from their site.

It's highly unlikely that anything broadcast along these newly acquired frequencies would be broadcast unencrypted. Without delving any further into speculation, all we can do is hold onto our rabbit ears and see for ourselves.

Zombie Versus Shark!

You know this is exactly what you were waiting to see all day, even if you didn't know it yet.

What can I say? I aim to please!

Masonic History Was Revealed To Me In A Video Game!

It's 1993, and I'm a reasonably normal, if moody, Southern Baptist high school sophmore. I can't remember and can't currently imagine how I wound up playing "Exile" (XZR 2) in Japan on the Sega Genesis. I mean, the basic premise is that you are playing a Muslim during the Crusades! Weren't they supposed to be the "bad guys"?

The game turned out to be an incredibly awesome and innovative side-scrolling RPG-adventure game (my favorite genre of games). It was even cooler when I managed to chase down the Turbografx CD version of the game, with added scenes and less censorship (The main charachter has a cigarette dangling off his lip the whole game! ROXORZ!)

Then I start to learn a little history, and things get weird. Turns out everyone in the game is based on REAL PEOPLE. Roughly.

You play Sadler, who is not only a Muslim mercenary, but an actual Hashishim. You know, the legendary renegade Islamic cult, followers of the Aga Khan sect founded by Hassan I Sabbah, that not only do we get the word "assassin" from, but also where we get the ridiculously innacurate idea that all Muslims believe that dying for Islam will give them a metric ton of virgins to hump.

The fact that Sadler rejected all of that (to the point of killing his leader/father in the previous game, never released in the US or on a system that has existed in 20 years) to become a cynical atheist with a penchant for hallucinogenic drugs (the latter being erased from the American releases as well) makes him, as far as I'm concerned, the coolest video game charachter EVAR.



During the game, you encounter the Templar Knights (as well as their leader Hugh de Payens, another major character), the ghost of Noah, Cathar Monks, Middle Eastern Mystery Cults, renegade Buddhist monk Nichiren... all while chasing this shape-changing MacGuffin called the "Holimax"...

then you are flung back in time to confront Mediterranean Mystery Cults, make allies with Pythagoras himself, and solve the murder of Hiram Abis - leading up to a final showdown in the Garden Of Eden Itself.

In short, twenty tons of historical awesome.

All names in the U.S. release are butchered and distorted, which somehow doesn't surprise me. I still find it hard to believe this game was ever released in the first place.

Strangely enough, though, shortly after this game was released in the US, a sequel emerged. One that inexplicably resurrected popular characters from the previous game, had legendarily bad play control, and dumped all the religious, political, and spiritual themes of it's predecessor.

Sometimes I think that the Illuminati infiltrated the company that released it and indulged themselves in making that sequel that totally took a crap on the previous games. It's the only logical conclusion.

A tasty bit of over-the-top conspiracy-based absurdity.

Hilarious, brilliant cartoon Robert Smigel managed to sneak into Saturday Night Live in the late 90s. It was edited out of reruns of the same episode. Awesome stuff!

Insanely Thorough (And Maybe Thoroughly Insane) Blog About Steven King's "The Shining".

I'll have to admit, after reading the first post, I became obsessed with this blog. It points out timecodes, repeated and altered images and numbers, and differences between the movie and book that may actually have been intentional. That kind of stuff always catches my attention.

It's really cool, but then gets weird really quickly.

Unfortunately, the synopsis the author comes to totally lost me. I won't ruin the surprise, but when he revealed what he believed the whole movie comes down to, the whole point Stanley Kubrik was supposedly trying to convey, I felt dejected and a little silly.

Those that know me in real life (or at least on Myspace) may have already read my blog which opens with an imaginary dialectic with this guy.

Just to warn ya, some of the images are NSFW.
