Sometimes I think that, most of all, I am humbled. Humbled because of how incredibly powerless we sometimes are.

That's one way to look at it... but this tragic event is also an opportunity for many people and institutions to show their true value.... my heart goes out to all those affected by this disaster.

 

Ever tried to shop at Walmart during an apocalypse?

Wow

 

I have been watching the coverage since before landfall.
I am shocked and saddened by what all those folks are going through.
I am uplifted by the tremendous outpouring of help and support.
I am afraid because I know that there is much more to come and for a very long time.
I am angry because I know that coverage of what should have been done but was not done will make me suspect the sincerity of the coverage.

I was a bit overwhelmed (hard to write this because I am tearing up right now) of the number of people who had almost nothing, now loosing everything. But this kind of tragedy happens every single day, all over the country and all over the world just at a much smaller case by case level. It is a shame it takes such an enormous tragedy to bring someone's hardship to our attention.

 

I vow to at least try to never complain again when my weekend outdoor plans are ruined by a little rain And it looks like it might be indoors this weekend. I can get some chores done around the house.

 

When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” Mr. Rogers

Mr. Rogers always knew just what to say.

He is a local boy. I went to tech school with his real neighbor. My schoolmate would tell us he is the same in real life as he was on TV.

 

Has anyone noticed the price of gas lately? My chauffeur says it was about 2 bucks last week.....now 2.45.

It's still about 2.19 here and hasn't changed ... yet.

 

I think I heard a report where one of the gas pumping stations for my way....was down.

 

It is only .25 a gallon here in the 60s.

Here in the S.F. Bay Area, there are 1000s living in tents on the streets everyday and the news media hardly reports it as a disaster. The same thing's happening in L.A. and Seattle.

So if it's a man-made disaster caused by manipulation of the economy, the media will play it down and blame it on drugs, alcohol, or mental illness.

I have been to San Francisco. Most of the street people do appear to have mental illnesses. It's a shame nobody points them to the state resources they need.

Your quite correct - They "appear: to have mental illness.

However I've done a lot of research on the so called problem of "mental illness" on the street and I can definitely tell you it's the result of people being deliberately drugged with some kind of psychoactive substances. I've even traced the source of this problem to a supposedly legitimate clinic that's testing psychiatric drugs to treat depression and obsessive-compulsive disorders.

Many of the participates are already on a host of psychoactive drugs such as SSRIs, trysicyclic antidepressants, and other mood altering substances which are known to cause erratic behavior. In fact, the government has admitted performing secret experiments with mind altering drugs in a program called MKULTRA. I believe Ted Kyzinsky (the Unabomber) was unknowingly part of the MKULTRA experiments and the guy that shot up Virginia Tech was also loaded up on psychoactives.

Then there was the People's Temple in 1978 (where nearly 1000 people supposedly died from ingesting Kool Aid laced with cyanide). However, the People's Temple seemed to be a front for some kind of government experiments with psychoactive drugs and their role in social engineering.

The same thing's going on with the heroin epidemic and the City Of San Francisco has been dispensing opiates and syringes at so called "Safe Injection Sites" where men can shoot up. Then there are marijuana dispensaries popping up all over the city and L.A. It looks like the government is deliberately getting people hooked on drugs for the purpose of "Medding Down" the people and providing a means of passivating the populace. The city should be getting them off all drugs - not providing a venue to perpetuate their addiction.

This thing is scary as hell and I've contacted the media (newspapers, radio, TV) with my findings, but all of them absolutely refuse to even consider publishing my findings. I can tell you this city (San Francisco) is in a Do Do load of trouble and I'm planning to move out ASAP.

 

I'm planning to move out ASAP.

I would too if I were you, being in the center of all of those conspiracies makes one start to think of the motives behind it all. I bet there are all kinds of theories out there.

 

Hello,

It looks like there is a new hurricane coming Irma:

He probably spends more than that on cigars.

How much have the Houston taxpayers paid so his team can play in that palace every year?

Trump only pledged $1M too but not his city. Jerry has sucked 10s to 100s of millions of dollars out of Houston. Now it is time to start giving back Jerry.

 

Jerry Jones team is in Arlington Texas, not Houston.

The houston team was suppose to play the cowboys last night, but, once the Houston airport opened, the NFL cancelled the game so the players could get back home. It was the right thing to do.

Dallas cowboys had a fund raiser that raised. Over two million in two hours ... And Jerry Jones call was 1 million.

So, how much money did Jerry suck out of the city of Houston?

I wrote that before I went out. Looks like we’re at about $2.59 now. Literally changed overnight.
