Adam curry, John C. Dvorak protecting you from the Ides of
March all across Gitmo nation. This is no agenda for March
15 2009. This is no agenda, navigating the matrix from the
crockpot command center in southwest London Borough of
Gitmo nation east. I'm Adam curry.
And from the get go nation Northwest and buzzkill Central,
I'm John C. Dvorak. dragline. Buzzkill. Wow, I think we did
it. Yeah. Well, I decided to
decided not to mess with me and
I last week, you know, when we ran that I listened to it. It
actually came out perfect.
No, it wasn't quite right. Because you could hear
a couple of people tweet tweeted, saying, Hey, that was
great. That was just awesome. That was I got a you know,
people send us stuff all the time. And actually, this was the
impetus or the right word the inspiration for a lot of the
work I've been doing this this past week have a listen to this
was this was sent in it was regarding our Michelle Obama
possibly being a kind of Lady Macbeth or someone lurking in
the shadows at the White House telling people that if they
don't shape up, they will be killed. So listen to this. If
you do that one more time, I will
you will step back and shut the fuck up. That's what you will
do. Or quit. As you shouted pinch, namely stabbed the table
with a steak knife. Not Lando dead. Cliff Jackson's dead.
Apparently others at the table joined in. So he is a candidate
Naser candidate
the message is really conveyed in very short sound bites.
If you do that, one more time, I will kill you. What are you
using your just like twist using Audacity? And then
No, I didn't know I didn't do this. This is one of our
listeners did this. Yeah. So I'm and we really don't have any
place in the straight listeners that do all this work.
They're fantastic. Are you kidding me? And so this is where
I was thinking, What can I do with stuff like this? Because it
doesn't really makes sense to play that in, in the context of
the show this one because it's 50 Seconds or Less than a
minute. and think, Well, why don't I do something with the no
agenda stream? Because it's you know, we only have we only have
it up, you know, twice a week for the show. But then, you
know, there's all kinds of cool applications and services out
there. And you have these this thing, you know, this thing
called Auto DJ, where you can set up playlists and rotation
and it basically it it talks to the to the shoutcast server and
it does it all, you know, out there so I don't have to be
uploading or streaming anything from the from the crackpot
command center. And I'm thinking yeah, that'd be kind of cool. So
I started uploading songs, you know, lots of revolution songs,
screwed the government songs, but across multiple decades, and
I kind of got into it. I started having fun, you know, and I'm
putting up our jingles or sweepers. So every three songs
there's a station identification. And people are
tuning into it man that listen to
Haitian
station identification, the internet. Yeah, I threw in every
25 songs, The New York Times, front page podcast roll. So you
get a little bit of news in there. You know, if you check
into the stream, once a day, once or twice a day, you get
some cool songs that you probably haven't heard before,
because we're trying to keep low on the repeats. But we could
also put tech five in there to run a couple times during the
day.
So this would be running. kind of not. This is not our show.
This is like something that's just running that people as they
checked in waiting for a show or just out of the blue. Yeah, they
was having you. So you've, that's an interesting thing to
do. Is you created this automated station. Yeah,
exactly. Exactly. And suddenly, it's like it's just weirder.
Exactly. And if people make stuff like this, which related
we can also schedule encore presentations of the show,
although I don't think that makes much sense. You might as
well just go download the podcast. But we can also put
promos in, you know, promoting stuff that we're working on.
There's a whole bunch of stuff and would that lead to and this
happens to me He at least once a year, usually in the springtime.
So, um, FTP files up to this server. And when it came when it
comes to graphical user interfaces, they really messed
up FTP. You know, back in the old days command line stuff, you
know, and I'll just kind of work you have your input and you can
use your wildcards. And you can make it a lot easier than this.
I can drag and drop and I get into this vibe of everything
command line now. And then I you know, I'll install pine and, and
then configure pine to work with Gmail through IMAP. And then I'm
like, Yeah, this is actually good, you know, cel calendar UI.
And it's just amazing how burdened we've become with the
GUI for some very simple tasks. You're not a command line guy,
take it never have
been I used to be Hey, give me a break. I was I was during the
day at Northstar dos CPM era. I mean, I started this whole
business in the late 70s. I mean,
command, but not Unix command line more DOS and stuff like
that? Well, I
mean, I'm right now I've become a boon to person
with. You're now an Ubuntu guy.
And but I, you know, I just, you know, the fact of the matter is
times have changed and drag and drop, drag and drop. You know,
seems I mean, there's no, really, I mean, I think it can
be all minimized. I mean, yeah, once in a while, you have to
type something in. And sometimes it's a lot more efficient. I've
seen guys, you know, you know, these guys, the guys, some of
the guys in the office use Emacs, they immediately just
jump into a command line and just typing.
But it's not that hard. In fact, there's there's a lot that makes
it really easy with autocomplete. And
matter of fact, I used to lecture people when I gave my
speeches about how you know, all the committee on Pa was oh, I
can't use that as you have to type stuff in. Oh, yeah. Like,
Dir. You gotta tight though. It's so hard. Yeah. And yeah, I
used to, you know, rag on the command line haters. And but
since you know,
I think we should bring it back. I think we should start ragging
on command. I think we should bring back the command line
love, honestly. See, there you go. That was pine, just alerting
me to a new email message. So I have one window and I can switch
between all these wonderful applications. Yeah, it doesn't
have all the the groovy looking but even just writing a
document. Who needs word? Except for the Yeah, but except for the
presentation layer, you
know? Yeah, like, the fonts and the formatting except for that.
Yeah. But it was a matter of fact. And this is funny, because
not even formatting, John, all these terms of grid format,
backup is out, they'll take your site a little bit, thank you.
Until about three years, four years, maybe it's rather than
how many years it's just recently, considering how long
I've been writing. I never, ever used Word to submit copy to
editors I ever since I began writing, which has been a while.
I've always used use the computer to send stuff. In fact,
when I was writing for the San Francisco Examiner. Instead of
submitting copy, I would I've talked to the IT guys, and this
is before you know anything. And I said give me the you know, to
call a computer remotely and and file into the system directly,
right. And you'd have to do that with text you have to do with
ASCII text is the only way to do it. And I always use an ASCII
text editor to write until just a few years ago when I started
using Word and it actually what's what's funny is because
you usually write to length, you would write on an athlete to get
used to certain like, you know, amount of text that you could
see on the screen and you knew it was like 700 words or 800
words or whatever, you can just tell that then you switch over
to the to Word. And then next thing you know, you're like, Oh,
I didn't have to keep checking the word count because you
didn't know okay. Right get to number you're looking for. But
now I use word for
which is it grep minus WC for your word count? Is not it?
I don't know and I don't care.
I guess my point is what's really nice about what is your
point I got a point what's really nice about it so if I
want to if you're if you're using Windows or Mac I'm I use a
Mac and you want to periodically check to see if there's a new
tech five podcast available. If it's available, you want it to
be downloaded or actually uploaded to the appropriate
directory on the streaming server. It has to be a newer
version otherwise don't replace it replace it with the same file
name all this shit well you can't use that you'd be looking
for shareware programs for three days to find out a way to do
that whereas on the command line but if you didn't even then it's
done. It really gives you the power of the computer back I
guess that's it. We've lost we've lost the power to make
sure well you know the thing is, is that the PC world PC side of
the business has always been into that until Windows came
along. And the Mac side of the world always never been into it.
Yeah until until we until we got OS X which is has a terminal and
command
line, Unix Mac users even know what terminal is?
No, no, it's, I don't, I'm not. I'm not saying people should
learn terminal and go back. But if you're really looking to do
stuff with your computer beyond the applications that you can
buy or are given, it's beautiful. That's all this is a
real operating system. Yeah. And then you can pipe stuff from one
command into the other. And you don't have to be a programmer
just kind of speak the language a little bit.
Okay, yeah, it will maybe a cheat sheet would be good. A no
agenda cheat sheet for those who wouldn't you know, sub just a
few interesting little commands that people can play with. And
so they get used to it or handed I know that you seem to be into
it.
Yeah, but that would that looks like real work. So I mind to
step back. We got to review. A review of the show. Yeah, very
positive review on the daily podcast reviews. And would you
like to hear some of our review,
I like to hear the whole thing, but just give me a
thumbs up the second half is probably the best. It's hard to
explain the show to people who don't see themselves beyond
calling themselves a Democrat or Republican. So you can see this
show is two guys blathering about nonsense. However, if
you're into if you're into completely insane ideas about
government and politics, this show is for you. In fact, if you
sheeple will just wake up, maybe these two guys aren't the crazy
ones. And we are all in turn crazy and nuts after all,
anyhow, listen to an episode of this show. And see what you
think, is just a preferable show. If you have a bit of crazy
conspiracy thinking mindset. No agenda is released every
Thursday and Sunday in the morning. Worship Q you wanted to
read it verbatim?
Cuz that's literally what it says in the morning thing in
there at the end.
So I thought that was really nice.
I appreciate that. That's probably more or less a good
description. We had people that either liked the show or they
think we were idiots.
Yeah, I'd say it's, well, I'd like to people who think we're
idiots to listen anyway.
A few do.
I should hope so. Yeah, we had our annual Red Nose Day in the
United Kingdom on Friday. Big build up to it. Are you familiar
with the Red Nose Day phenomenon and
ran into Red Nose Day was in South Africa. In fact, I think I
still have the red nose because we happen to be there on Red
Nose Day. And I thought well, that's interesting. As a
reminder, there's another thing that a lot of these countries
have where they would some do with these ducks that they have
a number on the duck and then they throw the duck in the water
you know these little floating yeah, I've just seen that. I
don't know read read those dager I will explain it because I
don't even know remember what it was such a charity or something?
Yes, it's comic
relief. And the idea is to do something funny for money and
they it's essentially it builds up over weeks time and you have
big chains like Sainsbury the supermarket selling the red
noses but also selling special especially Mark red nose
products. We'd have which portion goes to comic relief.
And then the
is is this a red nose that clips on or the red nose that's like a
little spongy thing spongy thing spongy that when I was like a
plastic knows that you pinch it and it beneath the clips,
spongy and the clips on your nose. Exactly.
That's not what I was asking about. Okay,
well, you said Is it is it spongy? Does it clip on? Well,
yes.
It clips on your nose, but it was hard. It was hard plastic.
Oh, no, it's it's, it's like a nerf ball. Okay with a slit to
so known as the girlfriend. In this case, it's a red nose. And
it culminates in a Jerry Lewis like marathon telethon where
they had the big tote board and they keep counting up or
counting up the money. And they interspersed that with horrible
and men this year. Absolutely horrible videos. And so they
have all the celebrities who work not just for the BBC, but
for other broadcast outlets as well. And they all do something
cool. Whether you know they're dancing nine of them climbed
Mount Kilimanjaro for for money.
Did you get on? No, I was not. Wait, wait, wait. But you you
were invited to see the Queen and you couldn't get on this.
I couldn't get on this damn boat man. Well, but a couple things
were interesting. One is they were doing it for malaria. And
their whole pitch well actually they added in I think they added
in later and also for for poor people in the United Kingdom
which makes sense because people are dying have no money no home
no food right here in the UK. And then you know, there was a
lot of pre buzz saying hey, well why are we sending all this
money to Africa? We need some money here. So they added in
some some UK charitable organizations but the whole
pushes for Malaria, you know, five pounds buys a net, which
will save a life. And I'm just flabbergasted by this malaria
thing. So they raised over 50 million pounds. So that's a lot
of malaria nets. But malaria first of all is a completely
treatable or preventable disease and Bill Gates has poured
hundreds of millions of dollars into this where is it going and
why doesn't everyone have a frickin net by now if if we've
got a total of three $400 million flowing specifically to
Africa for to combat malaria?
It just sounds sketchy.
Well I'm not saying that it's a that it's sketchy or a bad a bad
charity it's I don't get it. I mean, how many people live in
Africa that need a net?
But that isn't that aren't service by Bill
Yeah, exactly. It's just the whole thing was was but they
still show children dying before your very eyes on television. It
was
why don't they save them if they get the cameraman and crew
there?
I don't know if I guess you can't. I guess if you
Well, yeah, there's another one over here at dice. Come on.
Bring the camera. That's exactly
what it looked like. You know, and he had to help my kid. No,
no Blue Lady. If it was really sad, I don't laugh about it in
front of us. Let's
keep shooting. It was really
really sad. You see this child just breathing out it's the last
breath you know close up dying of fever. It's just Jesus
Christ. It was heart wrenching and twisted and satisfying yet
not so all at the same time. Weird.
Yeah. Well, it gives people something to do. Whatever
happened to band aid? Yeah, really ever happened to Hands
Across America. What happened all the money that was started
back God knows when and it was supposed to, like solve a
homeless problem was going to be ended by hands across America.
Well, we had noticed that it didn't had any effect at all. I
think it's just these things are just like, it's just a word,
like one layer below drinking clubs.
We had USA for Africa. Band Aid, Live Aid, Live Aid. Lots of
stuff like that.
Yeah, I think we should make a list.
No, those songs I learned a couple of years ago the USA for
Africa song which was written by Michael Jackson. Quincy Jones
and who else wrote I feeling Lionel Richie wrote it co wrote
it with Michael Jackson. You know that the royalties for that
song reverted back to them after two years.
Yeah, I do know that you I think you brought that up. We might
have
talked about that before. Yeah.
It was like what is the you know, you've given this away?
You're not giving it away? Yeah. What's the point? Peeps? Well,
probably. The point is they know it was a scam. You know that
these guys that produce these things a scam in the public.
They mostly get their money back eventually because there's not
going to anybody.
Why do you want to go man space wars climate change bailout made

Lindsay Lohan arrest warrant issued Oh, crap,
hold on a second. And now back to real. All right, Lindsay
Lohan hit me John.
An arrest warrant for Lindsay Lohan was issued by the Beverly
Hills Superior Court on Friday related to her 2007 DUI and hit
and run case. That is according to people this has been this is
getting this from Entertainment Weekly. Which is really my
source of news of course the Jon Stewart show for politics. Well
the exact nature of the charges that's how we got here by the
way is Entertainment Weekly. Jon Stewart show that's it? Pretty
much I mean, you can read the you know if you can get you can
go online and read the independent and in England is
pretty decent. But doesn't have the local news that won't have
the Lindsay Lohan story? I mean, what is wrong with these
British? Anyway, low hands lawyer Sean Chapman Holly called
the warrant a misunderstanding. Apparently the warrant was
issued for any number of infractions, including minor
administrative problems like failing to update an address but
that's what that's just the general reason you can issue but
they don't say what this one was issued for. It's a kind of
vague, it says he said that she had been complying with the
terms of her probation and then the police were not actively
looking although they wouldn't mind having sex with her. Say
that.
She is She is very hot in that lesbian kind of way. I gotta
admit, when you just nightshade
when you see her she is extremely attractive. Yes, she
is. She is subject to arrest. He says as expected to attend a
hearing on her.
Blah, blah blah. I'm gonna how much more I can handle.
She's got a film coming out and this looks like it's I think
this connected. If you read his last sentence The star whose
film labor pains opens in May, is currently serving three years
probation for the May and July 2007 incidents in which he is
alleged to have been in put away mid shift. She was found. She's
on probation from a court case it's over. Why would you use the
word alleged?
Because it's stellar reporting, John?
No, it's like somebody's just drops away. What did she What
was the UI cocaine alleged? That's our news. So you have
anything else that was there anything happened in the world
of politics?
Yeah, there were several things happening in the world of
politics. You want to start with our president, you know, the
news, although there's real, no real detail about his, his CIO
having to take a bit of leave after the FBI raid. It's all
very, very CTO, CTO, I'm sorry, Tom, very quiet, you know that
everyone's just regurgitating the news. But no one's doing any
background on these guys. Their names are known.
Yeah, just baffling to me. And in general.
I have a question. So now we know that the Microsoft Security
dude on just pull up the article here. Philip Rindge? Does that
ring a bell with you know, Chief trustworthy infrastructure
strategist at Microsoft has been appointed the lead role in
protecting the US government's computing network from cyber
attack. So he is now he was tag guy from Microsoft. Yes, he was
tapped by us Homeland Security Secretary, Secretary Janet
Napolitano. And, and then I also know it doesn't sound right, you
know, so Microsoft to pretty much can't secure their
operating system from anything. Doesn't seem like you know,
while he would certainly know what gets through, I guess, but
then
he's got a list. He's got a list of another one. Well, I
knew we had that was the pi S T dot exe virus that was floating
out there that Symantec or Norton which is I guess Symantec
company said, hey, you know, don't worry about it. That's
yeah, it's dialing home to us, but it's just an update thingy
and it shouldn't have triggered all your warnings you follow
that? I'm sure.
Yeah, baby. Well, kinda right.
So what I don't have any Norton on my, on my Mac, it does exist.
I use the built in firewall and why does anyone trust these
guys? If you look at what's what's semantic basically, the
Symantec is a government company. Their biggest business
comes from government, they do all of the security for for NGO,
or most of it for the government. And you look at
their board of directors, this is funny. Vice Chairman of the
Bechtel group is on the board of directors. We know that from
Confessions of an economic hitman. Why do we even trust a
company like Symantec or Norton and or do you I use AVG
and I recommend everyone else use AVG no publicity here but
three dot grease off.com Who made our eye and that's open
source or that it is free
now it's a it's a shareware antiviral system. They have anti
spyware and anti virus it works fine. works as well as anything
and it doesn't and it seems to be less intrusive. Norton in
particular, although they've said they've cleaned this up a
little bit. Attempts to muck up things you can install programs
and it's just in there looking at too many things slowing down
to System Performance or it used to
Well, I'm not 10 I'm not having it.
Well, why should you know there'll be something for the
Mac that's pretty clean. It'd be done with you know, like a
bouncing duck or something would be the logo,
a nice nice little bouncing dock icon that tells me something?
Sure, in bird in the show notes for today's episode of no
agenda, a very good article from New America new new America
media.org. About the the $11 billion helicopter order exactly
the things we were talking about last week, only much more
detail. You know, all the companies that are involved how
it came together. This is this is a massive, massive scam
that's going on under reported, obviously, but just a great read
to if you want to catch up on how that whole thing came to be.
And of course, you know, nothing has happened. There's no I don't
think the President has said I won't have it. Or I'm going to
reduce I
refuse this scam I was looking to he'll he'll say something
when somebody writes it for the prompter. Right? So there's a
lot of news floating around by the way on fact they're starting
to see it as a meme about legalizing drugs. Yeah, it's
showing up a little more than usual in a sense. I don't know
when because I precisely was messing is going to have to do
with me but I may have picked it up. But it's got did I know Ron
Paul's floating around? Well, he's
good at what they're doing now to doing lots of you know, it's
it is kind of like a meme. And so the all these cable news
outlets are so desperate for material that I saw, I saw
what's the girl from? The woman from the view minima? Yeah. For
the view. She filled in for Larry King recently. Joy is
their name is a joy. I don't know. Whatever. Well, I saw the
YouTube clip. And so she was filling in and she had Ron Paul,
Congressman Ron Paul on as a pro decriminalization, not
necessarily legalization, but decriminalization, and against
drugs of all people was Stephen Baldwin, we have it
on the blog, we have that clip on the blog. And it's like the
irony of that of a Hollywood guy. Maybe even the straight as
an arrow, but you know, combined. Jeez.
It's, um, I don't know where it's coming from. And it just
seems kind of like, oh, you know, I
know where I think I know where it's, at least I know where the
real impetus is. I mean, the big one, the big move now is a front
page story. On the economist, and a big editorial in the
economist that goes on and on and on about how we why we
should legalize everything, all
right, and talking about how much tax money they'll make off
of it is
just a couple of things you besides making, like who knows
how much tax money that it will save the United States, I
believe, or maybe it's a world number, but I think it's United
States number $40 billion in enforcement costs and
incarceration costs. And that's not counting the taxes. I mean,
we're talking about a probably close to $100 billion into the
economy and it and like everyone says, and there's a lot of
evidence that this nothing really there's less people using
these things when they were legal in terms of per capita and
then and I think it would probably be that way now I think
people would stop because there is a there is a kind of a you
know, kind of a dirty girl thing involved with who let's do that
you know it's not you know, it's illegal oh
my god let's try it all the kids are doing it it's cool
you know, well when you go to Amsterdam, even though they're
different are they agree criminalizing everything
No, no, no no, they're not recruit re criminalizing they
are making the sale almost impossible. They're taking this
systematically taking away the coffee shops which is the
distribution
okay. Well but the point is that when you're in Amsterdam, which
was wide open you don't just mean it I don't see people feel
don't out of their brains or
not don't agree with that. Stop be in the right spot in
Amsterdam 30th of April my friend I'm taking you I'll show
you some stone Dutch guys. But they I read an article I can't
find it right now I read an article and maybe it was a Dutch
article, where they looked at what the taxation would have to
be. And they did some I got to find this article, some huge
calculation and apparently, you know, at the end of the day, it
would have to be like $89 An ounce just in tax or some crazy
crazy amount like that
is it have to be anything and to me what what does that what does
it have? But at the
end of the day, if it's decriminalized if it's
legalized, then you'll just grow it? And why why set up an
industry that's the beauty of it, it's a weed, they don't call
it a weed for nothing. You throw the seeds in the ground, you
tinker some water on it and shit just grows it's not hard. So I
don't I think legalization of marijuana is
I don't understand why they sell tomatoes in the grocery store.
Because after all, I can put a tomato I know that's and I can
have free tomatoes. Why should I be paying $2.59 By the way,
which is what you have to pay at a crappy growth one tomato,
tomato. No for a pound of tomatoes. And it's like
expensive because one to one good size tomatoes. Your answer,
John. Lots of people grow tomatoes.
Yes, but they they're still selling them in the stores.
Well, it's all academic. It'll never be legalized because they
cannot legalize the drug trade of any kind because that will
really ruin the economy. Because everything including Wall Street
runs on drug money. End of story. So it's not gonna happen
now. Yeah, here we go. It's not going to happen. There's
hundreds of billions of dollars. You know, I am we got a store
hidden here. I thought it was a what they call the Pakistani
store that's always open regardless of religious holiday.
And they have newspapers, and it's kind of like a little
convenience store and I'm talking to the guy. He's from
Afghanistan. And he's been here for 20 years. And he says, you
know, you're never laughing because I have such a pain in my
heart for my country. I wish I could be in my car. entry and
sound waving from Afghanistan Oh really? And so of course he left
right after the the the Mujahideen kicked out Russia and
then, you know, the situation changed dramatically. I said and
there's a bunch of crooks over there I said how about Karzai
first thing out of his mouth? He said the biggest drug dealer in
the world said and I thought that was his brother he said his
brother is peanuts. Karzai is the biggest drug dealer in the
world. And it makes total sense
well, that I don't know. I mean, why not?
We're just all ties into the fact that it's not going away
the war on this whole thing?
I mean, it's like disaster like somebody said, you know, you can
just trade you know, we used to joke about it Well, you know,
these guys are kicked out the Russians the Russians attacked
the British attack twice. I mean, one country after another
keeps going in there all they did their entire culture is only
designed to keep people out. And so now we're there and we had it
we look good for a little a few minutes. And then the next thing
you know, these guys are just reading you know, they're saying
well, can we figure it out what they're doing they showed all
our cards let's now what do we have to do to get these idiots
out of here? So I don't know.
Let's move over to the hopeless it's hopeless hopeless. Another
big story of the week it was so funny to watch the cable news
outlets all disappointed they didn't have a story anymore with
Nate off you know like damn there's there's no investigation
there's no story there's there's nothing to say they have no
angle left and the design what is that the Where did all the
money go? Which of course leads right into massive reporting.
Now John links in the show notes about the international finance
court, which will be recommended to the G 20. So you can watch my
prediction come true. But I had a good laugh at about the judge.
Who did he convicted that would it? Yeah, he he had a
conviction. Yeah. Convicted made off. Judge Denny chin and I'm
kind of a bemused that no one is talking about this guy. The
cases he's been involved in and Nicole Smith Eliot Spitzer
several he's thrown out cases against the Bank of New York.
Yeah, interesting, isn't it? He's had some really high
profile like showbiz type things. And the guy seems pretty
clean there's a couple of mob references that I found but I'm
still thinking that this was just played to clean to
beautiful yeah pretty slick
I'm still of the opinion that he may have never had anything to
do with it just as a you know, interesting point of conjecture
well it's
it's a fractal man. There's a much bigger version of this
above made off. And that's probably what's being well, I
guess the whole derivative
that's kind of well, you know, we're almost what John Stewart
was intimating over the last week one of the interesting
things and what we need a little jingle somebody out there maybe
can make it or you can make it nice booming thing about
something about news for just for the point of distraction,
which is your theme you know, everyone's everyone's all worked
at you know, targeting some oh my god, this is dope. Yeah.
Don't Don't Don't look at the economy. Look at look at what's
Kramer Exactly. There you go. Yep.
And so they had, curiously, my friend Andrew Horowitz was
supposed to be on that show, and got bombed by me, then they
referenced his piece, which made it must confuse some members of
the audience because I guess he was didn't sober analysis of how
to short sell or what it was all about. And, you know, he was and
Stuart referred to him as someone who's just normal
instead of screaming and yelling and punching buttons that do
sound effects. And, and he really gave it to Kramer for
being, you know, just crushed. Well, you know, I'm, I'm just an
entertainer, he says, and Stewart says, Well, this is an
entertainment. This is like people's livelihoods. You know,
we're talking about it's like, you know, and it was actually
pretty I mean, it's Stewart was not funny. Let's put it that
way. He was very he was just drilling into the guy was like
it was almost major cringe
when I felt the the clips he showed that 2006 interview where
we're way out of context. I didn't even know what it was
from. I'm just looking at going What is this from? What is the
point I mean, it could have been an interview about show business
on television that will wasn't completely thought of I felt
that was a bit unfair the way he Yeah,
well, I think what they were trying to show off the fact that
they can dig up anything.
Yeah, well, what it's all YouTube shit. You know, we got
all the same videos on Divorce Act out.org And on curry.com
Yeah, there's a lot of good stuff out there. Anyway, so that
was a big moment of distraction and CNBC still hasn't responded
to anybody about anything. They continue their merry way.
Robert Gibbs, the press secretary had something to say
about it. You want to hear that? Yep. Which was he? Well listen
to the implication he makes about CNBC being ashamed of Jim
Cramer
says serious question is an easier one. I don't know if you
were the president. Jon Stewart because Michael Kramer but
serious journalism. This White House
is a serious question. This serious journalism, this use
case in the White House press corps, by the way, those are the
ones that should be shot except for Helen
lined up lined up one by one
application. Call out lies to one public.
Yay, get to your damn question.
The President had talked earlier in the day yesterday about
watching it. I forgot to email and remind him that it was odd.
I don't know.
I love that. I forgot to email him. It was on Yeah, like he's
like he doesn't know.
Like, you can't tape it. Yeah, it's called DVR
dude. And I'm sure you can. Maybe the President could look
at the YouTube clip. As an example. Unbelievable.
Unbelievable. They would say that that's ridiculous. It gets
better hold on me rewind a little bit. Yes, funny. He's
seen it. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Smug little bastard. No, let me rephrase that smug little
cocksucker.
Despite, even as Mr. Stewart said that it may have been
uncomfortable to conduct and uncomfortable to watch. I
thought it was I thought somebody asked a lot of tough
questions. And I am not surprised that the video of Mr.
Kramer's appearance doesn't appear on CNBC website today.
So that put a whole new perspective on this.
So Horowitz thinks that Stuart was probably burned. You know,
he makes about a million bucks a year and must have his money in
something and this market collapsing. He didn't get out.
You know, it was Miss advised or told him to hold you know, which
was just waiting to come back someday. And so I think he's
steamed because he does have an anger that is abnormal. It's
it's with good humor, but you can he still smokes but it's
like you can just he's irked he's probably lost millions
and possibly
was like you gold gold
baby. That's where it is. That's where it's at 2.6 million
viewers for the Jon Stewart show. Yeah, that's
a good number for them it's
a great number yeah probably almost triple Orson almost
triple what they normally do.
Right that's worth about that much money so anyway the but
there's another thing here this kind of being overlooked is
obvious that Kramer has been targeted to be thrown under the
bus Yeah, he comes up in the conversation way too much. He
shows up on all he's been sent out on the on his on a dog and
pony show to all the other NBC news outlets to to
take his weapon to take his weapon.
He had to take a whipping and then he goes through I mean why
would he do an hour he did the whole show I've never I've
watched the Jon Stewart show for years I've never seen anyone sit
down he said Brock Obama on the show and he only had him in that
segment at the end you know I mean he has you know he has a
Clinton on He has him on the segment at the end the whole
show was devoted to beating this guy up he is the the scapegoat
for the entire collapse of the economy and he's gonna end up
it's ridiculous that they would just there's other people that
are just as bad or worse he's
going to end up as a bit player on no agenda that's what's going
to happen to
be okay these liven things up although he's already you know,
I used to do CNBC more than I do now. And he and he I would
always find out what block I was in and they say and I said what
block is Kramer in? Because he would come on with with the
Aaron and you know they chit chat and if it was before my
bike oh my god crank he would stay all over your block. Yeah,
and you get no ticket no time. Yeah, yeah. That's what I was
laughing at when horror which was pumped because Yeah, well,
there you go. par for the course.
But here's the here's the strange thing. So you have Jon
Stewart, basically saying what the hell is this? You know, a
financial news network that is basically running a scam. The
guy i You should know this best is John Stewart. This is what he
does all day long does nothing but make fun about politicians,
financial experts, cable television. He does it all day.
Did he honestly think that CNBC wasn't some form of a scam?
Well, not a scam and entertainment form of
entertainment. Right? Yeah. I mean, why, like I said, you
know, is that the theory is he probably lost his shirt? Because
you know, a lot of people lost like me. We're not talking about
losing half. Did you look
for him on the list on the on the made off list? Maybe it was
invested in made off? No, that would have been in the news.
You'd be surprised what's not in the news, John?
Well, to see the profit made off. Here's the Horowitz points
this out. The problem with the made off lists with this four or
5000 people, it doesn't include the sender funds, it doesn't
count any the feeder funds, there's probably at least twice
as many more that were in some feeder fund that went into made
offs fund. And they lost their money that when they're not
listed as the CEO and as the under suck on the number one
suckers list. Those are just a list. So who knows? Me Maybe I
mean, it's not the kind of thing you'd want to admit to. Although
the guy who had US News and World Report was on some show
early on in mitting to it and he was you know, he's bitching
about like he had a some charity and the entire charity was just
wiped out. Because of made off.
Funny. article in The Telegraph over here in the UK. What is the
difference between Gordon Brown and Bernie Madoff? Yes, Bernie
is pleading guilty. They want it they want Gordon Brown to
apologize. That's, that's what they're pushing for here. They
want him to stand up and say, All right, you know, all this
shit happen during my watch. When I was Chancellor of the
Exchequer David Cameron, the opposition is already saying,
Oh, we're sorry. We're really, we're running the country. But
we're sorry. Anyway. As the the net of poverty comes down,
everyone's pissed off about the AIG bonuses being paid out in
$165 million.
I'm sure you've heard this. Oh, yeah. But it's these I don't
understand why they don't indict somehow, I think is
what they're saying is, it is absolutely critical that they
pay these bonuses, otherwise, they're going to lose all these
very talented people. Really, this guy's going to run this
thing into the ground. They're so terrible where
these guys go. And if they lose them, I mean, it's bullshit.
It's total bullshit. It's unbelievable. I've been nobody's
just, you know, I think they should you know, that. the olden
days when people would like have torches, and you know, carry
shovels and torches and storm a place and burn it to the ground
and men. You know? Yeah, like what
happens in, in Athens in Iceland other places except the
civilized world? Yes.
I just kind of, you know, be fun to see, especially the AIG
thing, just like, like, 100,000 people converge on the AIG
offices and just trashed the place. But, you know, that's,
I don't, I don't I don't think it's a good idea. Because I
believe that's exactly what the government wants you to do.
That's why they're already saying, Ooh, it's the summer of
rage, and everyone's gonna be pissed off, and we're gonna have
all kinds of shit. I mean, that's what they want. They want
people to start distraction. Well get them rioting. Because
then Kook swooped down, military comes in, picks them up, throws
him in the camps, done. Mission accomplished.
Sorry, I brought it up.
I've been looking at recovery dot.gov Waiting for the
transparency. And and I've noticed something interesting
about this site. Of course, this is the the transparency website
of the administration. It's basically it's a it's a news
blog, because it has all these stories like, Oh, it's 3000
Aviation jobs, and you click and then it says you will now be
transported to the Department of Homeland Security websites, they
keep shuttling you off to other government websites where they
have a whole different format, you have to search through the
press, you know, there's a press release, but then there's no
actual information, how the money's being spent. And then to
top it all off from Mother jones.com, which I think it's
pretty reputable. They have a story about different counties
in California. Trading their their stimulus funds from each
other at discounts. So here's how it works. So you have $44
million. That's meant for transportation, but you only
need maybe 30 Or that's what you think, but you really need more
Agriculture. So what they're doing now is they're trading
these pieces of money. Okay, this was earmarked. It's just
the same money right? But this was trade and this was earmarked
for transportation so you can buy some of my transportation
money in and they're literally selling it. Let me see was an
example here. La Habra heights. The city of 6000 has sold its
500,000 is a small amount $500,000 in federal funds the
city of Westlake Village for $310,000 in cash, and what the
fuck is this? This is ridiculous. Rolling Hills
population 1900 sold its $500,000 share to the city of
Rancho Palos Verdes us for $305,000 in cash. And the city
of Avalon has reached an agreement to swap its 500,000
with LA County. And this is this this is wrong. Doesn't make any
sense.
Yeah, makes plenty of sense. I mean, how would they get
$500,000? I don't need it. I don't need I don't need it. So
give me cash free cash. Give me some cash. And I give you some
of the money.
It's an outrage. I hear birds.
Yes. There's a canary in this room.
For my fellow
it's true that loud on this just makes very directional. Yeah,
no, I just came through loud and clear. Look, Mike's kind of
pointing at the birds. Look at it behind me. So when I move my
head, it's aimed right at the bird. And what
kind of bird is a John Canary? Oh, it really is a canary? You
got a canary in a cage.
Exactly. So if the drops dead, I'm leaving here.
Oh, boy. Speaking of such
Well Wait, do we hit that hit the jingle for a real news. I'm
gonna go on a story.
Well, before we get to the real, the real news story, let me let
me talk about canaries for a second. Guardian. The fine
communist newspaper the United Kingdom. World will agree new
climate deal says Al Gore. Former US Vice President
delivers an upbeat assessment of the global response to climate
change today saying he believes a political tipping point has
been reached which will enable leaders to avert environmental
catastrophe. So he's basically saying it's all good. Everyone
believes it. You're crazy if you don't, and this is this is the
paragraph Are
you? Are you are you are you a denier?
Yes. The earth is flat. I am a denier.
You're a denier that means creationist you're insane.
You're a Holocaust denier. You don't you don't believe that
there's a holocaust that you don't believe in evolution. And
you don't what else there's and you're nuts
and mentally have a mental disorder. Mental disorder so let
me route around in your brand new Oh, you're that
crazy. I know what so what's wrong with you know, I think
that you know, Darwin has you know, this has been proven I
mean, science has to use it. I don't understand why you would
believe in creationism. It doesn't make any sense to me.
You're a reasonable person.
John. I don't like playing that game. It's not even funny.
Well, that's what George Monbiot is doing your buddy over there
at the Guardium? Yeah,
he hasn't published me there yet. Listen to this. Gore warns
business leaders who did not get it. I love that, hey, you don't
get it, you know, we're gonna die. You don't get it. Gore
warns business leaders who did not yet get it, that they should
look to the collapse of the subprime mortgage market as a
warning. Listen to what he does here, John. We now have, yeah,
oh, listen, listen to this, I got the quote, it'll blow you
away. We now have several trillion dollars worth of
subprime carbon assets, whose value is based on the assumption
that co2 is free. And there's nothing wrong with 70 million
tons of it entering into the atmosphere every 24 hours. He
says that assumption is also in the process of collapsing and
the remedy for it will include a change in business practices.
What does that mean?
It doesn't mean anything that guy's criminally insane.
was what I thought it was looking at the collapse of the
subprime mortgage mortgage market as a warning, and I mean,
what is it we now have $7 trillion, several trillion
dollars worth of subprime carbon assets whose value is based on
the assumption that co2 is free and there's nothing wrong with
seven the guy is
a hell guy's a lunatic. This is the craziest thing I've ever
watched. How do you work what's the connection there? Oh, well,
you don't get it.
Yeah, exactly. You don't get it you don't get it. Which is a
very Silicon Valley term by the way, by Thomas from the you
don't get you don't get Twitter man. You still get it? Okay. You
don't get So you'll never be successful in your life you
don't get you'll be No, no IPO for you, you don't get it.
Google's not gonna acquire you because you don't get it. It's
not the way they talk.
Yep. And it all comes from Earhart seminar training. Is
that where the guy that comes from? That's where the you don't
get it thing. Basically, we was popularized by Warner Earhart,
who was one of these guys who did these crazy seminars where
that's the one notorious for not being able to take a bathroom
break. And they would talk to this gibberish just similar to
what Al Gore did where you'd connect weird things in a kind
of a non sequitur way, basically saying the world and people
don't pretend to understand it. And if you didn't, didn't, you
didn't get it. And it was a harped on this. They don't get
it. They don't get it.
I'm trying to I'm trying to find this. There was an article I
think it was in the Financial Times today, a great new
discovery. Maybe it's Meyer's shipping was one of the shipping
companies who said we know our way out of this jam because you
know, international shipping is pretty much dead at this point.
No one's shipping anything there. There are ships just
literally sitting in in in port here in the UK, with foreigners
on it.
You have quite a few of them in San Francisco, same thing
oh, here it is Mayas tank. Listen to this. This. This made
me laugh when you think about how ridiculous it is. Myers
tankers looking at sea transport of co2, one of the world's
biggest owners house now this is funny, one of the world's
biggest owners of oil and gas tankers have become the first
major operator to announce plans to enter the market to transport
captured carbon dioxide. So here they are, they're going to take
a tanker full of basically exhaled air sealed up, it's a
tanker full of nothing. And they're shipping it off to
another part of the world where they're going to put it into
another container. And therefore it's not released into the
atmosphere. John, who's mentally insane,
I tell you, you know, the thing is plants need that co2. You
know, the worst thing about co2 of course would always have to
be realized is that co2 is heavier than air and it tends to
go down not up and which has never been discussed and in fact
in the desert, like in the Death Valley, for example, and places
like that. If people who have to spend the night camping or if
you if you think that's fun, but you always have to end this this
is a known fact that there are there are depressions in the in
the desert that are like little sinkhole things and and people
sometimes will go down into them and then spend the night and be
dead in the morning. Yeah, because the co2
is sitting there co2, oxygen, yeah. Right. See co2 kills. I'm
just saying.
So anyway, the whole thing
outdoor believes a global climate deal will be agreed at
the UN brokered climate talks scheduled in Copenhagen for
December. So mark it down on your calendar.
And you know, this all began with the with a rather new
discipline before you have climatology. Let me
just give you this the last bit because this is the real
important connection. No, sorry. Gore says there's a very
impressive consensus now emerging around the world, that
the solutions to the economic crisis are also the solutions to
the climate crisis. That's your carbon credits. That's your
carbon tax. That's all of that shit right there. In that one
little sentence. Please continue.
I can't I mean, that's this. This is ridiculous. That guy,
he's the one of the most dangerous men in history. I
can't imagine what would have happened if he was actually
elected president. Hold on
a second. Could you please. That was really good, man. Do that
again, that guy. Let's do it again. And now an important
analysis from John C. Dvorak.
Al Gore is one of the most dangerous men in the history of
mankind. I don't know what it would have been like if he was
actually elected president.
Excellent. That'll be reused. We'll put that on the stream.
Meanwhile, Buckingham Palace Palace, one of the least green
buildings in the top 10 list in London. Thermal imaging, Jia
Thank you. Yeah, that's only 775 rooms this palace, managed it
all. So it's Buckingham Palace. I love number two, so they're
number one. Number two, this really will make any Brit
chuckle. Defra the Department of Energy and Climate Change
actually its department for environment Food and Rural
Affairs but there is the de CC that is for climate change.
Number three The Ministry of Defense number four the Horse
Guards barracks lot of co2 coming from there as well I
think we should shoot the horses. Sailors will shoot the
horses that number five the shell building number six the
home office number seven houses of parliament number eight the
Treasury Nine, Portcullis House and then mi six.
And then a whole bunch allowed to burn coal in the Buckingham
Palace.
They don't remember I, they had it's all electric. We're not
saying that's any better, but it's that's what they're that's
what they're doing. I think we should hit on China for a few
moments because China's in the news.
That's gonna give you some real news first. I'm
sorry, hold on one second. And now ladies and gentlemen time
once again. And now back to real.
America's top Next Top Model auditions led to a semi riot and
arrest in New York. Oh no. Yeah, yeah melee, and let me read this
from this is Entertainment Weekly again, one of the two
news sources we use here in the United States, which was
Entertainment Weekly. And the other one is a Daily Show with
Jon Stewart. A melee at the New York auditions for the CW
series. America's Next Top Model lead to six injuries and three
arrests Saturday according to The New York Times witnesses
told the paper that the frock is broke out. When the want to be
contestants nerves were frayed by the disorganized conditions
after they'd waited on the street overnight for it was cold
by the way, for a chance to try out on Tyra Banks reality show
three people were reportedly arrested for disorderly conduct
and tour. Two of the six injured they were transported to the
hospital. You're killing me, man. next day's audition,
ironically, were canceled, which must have irked everybody in
line.
I have real news, but I'm not even gonna do it now. That was
too much.
See, and this is important. I mean, this kind of thing
happens. This is what's going on in the country.
The Obama administration is but desperately trying to reassure
China that we're good for the money. That that is pretty bad.
Let me just boil it all down for you. That's what's going on.
A look. I pay on Tuesday really? Seriously?
What's the big on the ship man calm brother.
Money besides that, what are you going to do about it?
Chinese Premier Wen Jabo Jabo said I pronounce it Yabo.
I know how you pronounce premier A is a premier
Premier. Well, he's he's basically said publicly Hey, you
know, I'm a little worried about the $2 trillion you guys
borrowed from us? Here's the quote, I request the US to
maintain its good credit, to honor its promises and to
guarantee the safety of China's assets. Yeah, good luck, buddy.
Yeah. Does he not watch CNBC? Does he not know how much money
we're creating? And how much we're devaluing their share? And
yeah, it's like ratcheting down. So
missing from the story, of course, is the eminent domain.
But I really think that, you know, he's looking for
reassurances, what more reassurance can we give him than
Hillary Clinton saying, Don't worry? Don't worry.
So good. Well, the reassurance is simple. Look, we have a new
eminent domain law. Look, and we'll give you China. Let's say,
what would you want? You want an Arizona I want Hollywood,
they want Hollywood give them Hollywood?
I think it'd be great to split. Here's what should happen. Have
I bet if you go to the blog, greed posters, I've been posting
it for years, I think California should be divided into three
states because it's too big to be one state and as three
states, it could also pick up another four senators, which
would give us more representatives or governors.
Right. Three and two more governor? Governor's Yeah. So
it'd be it would be better. And then you'd have the, you know,
Northern California and in the Central California area, and
then Southern California, which could then be sold to Mexico, or
it could be sold to China, which has Hollywood down there. And
then they can deal with their water problem, you know, through
the doors. You know, like the Rio Grande or something besides
taking all our water from Northern California and piping
it all the way down to Southern California. So some idiot can
fill his pool, you know, and water his lawn when they live in
the middle of a desert. And so sell you know, but you know, you
divide the state up to three and sell off the bottom part to
China let China habit. I mean, what's the big deal?
I think China should take southern Chinese doing Yeah,
yeah, they should take Southern California and turn it into the
trash dump. Because the International Herald Tribune
says that they're now turning away other country's trash.
They're not taking it anymore. In China, in China, yeah. This
is a big problem.
Somebody has to be done about trash. Nobody wants to talk
about trash recycling. And by the way, trash when it's buried
and just let let the rot produces a lot of methane, which
contributes to global whatever and change So this stuff should
either be burned which is good. I think co2 is better than
methane. I think everybody agrees with that. And you just
don't recycle, burned recycle something. You know something
different. The collapse
of the recycling business has affected trash pickers, the
middlemen who buy their waste in the factories that refashion
metal paper glass plastic into products bound for the
supermarket shelves. China is refusing their shipments. The
recycling business has collapsed. Now what should we be
focusing on that shouldn't be looking at trash?
I think I stress is a problem is huge. It's a huge problem.
We export to the United States exports $22 billion worth of
recyclable materials that was 2007 that that amount is that
amount of money. 22 billion has decreased by an estimated 70%. I
guess it's because recyclables don't go in, there's no more
manufacturing or there's less manufacturing so they don't need
materials, right.
I mean, if everything slows down then you don't need so much you
know,
grinds up big slowdown, man 70% is a big ass slowdown.
Yeah, I don't know if what would it what it represents the total
below? I mean, it might be I mean, how much is the economy
slowed down on the economy slowed down? 70% I think just
that's like the edges of the economy, which is the first
thing to be affected because there's still no raw materials.
I like know what the what the I think what we want to look at is
copper and cement production and see what the slowdown is in
those two industries. And then we know what the real slowdown
is
China is rumored to be using it was a good spot there for in the
morning. Now I wasn't ready. I need to give you your own in the
morning
and had to get my own buttons here. Bloomberg is
writing that China might use part of its $2 trillion in
foreign exchange reserves to buy gold. Yeah. There's a thought
boys. Little late night. Well, it's gotten it's gone down a
bit. Low nine hundreds now. But so there was a little fractus
with a US ship out there hunting for subs. And the Chinese said
Hey, what are you doing? Get out of here.
Five and did you Yeah, did you see they showed pictures of this
and I wish fortunately, I don't have the I didn't get a
screenshot. But that the thing that crazy boat that the US was
in is was screwball. Did you see pictures of that? Yeah, but and
then the fractus was a couple of like, look like overgrown
tugboats with like tires all around the outside old wooden
boats floating around it looked there it was just like the next
generation junk. And it was like you know, and they're saying
hey, I know that this story seems like a bogus story.
There's something phony about it because our boat was too weird
looking in those their boats were like two dinky
Well, according to the Times newspaper in the UK, a potential
conflict brewing as of last night in the South China Sea
after President Obama dispatched heavily armed American
destroyers to the scene of the naval standoff. Gee, I bet
that's not in Entertainment Weekly
standoff. It was a joke. This is not there was no standoff
there's just these weird looking giant two of these horrible
looking wooden.
The US boat the US has admitted was that looking at submarines?
It was unarmed. But it was like a submarine snooping boat.
You know? I think the whole story is bull. Really? There was
there? Yeah, I think the that ship was so screwed. Like I
don't see what it had to do with submarines. Maybe it was a sub
chaser or something like that. I don't know what the point was.
And you know, why couldn't Navia were they a passageway this
story sketchy. What were they where were they were exactly
what listen to the South China Sea.
Let's listen to the story. Because there's a video that
goes along with it. Let's see. On the surface.
This doesn't look like a terribly serious problem. An
American surveillance ship, the impeccable was harassed by
Chinese vessels on Sunday in the South China Sea, and nothing
more dangerous than a high powered water hose was used in
the exchange. But actually underlying this incident is
something far more serious. This area is one of the most
strategic waterways in the world. The Americans are now
sending heavily armed destroyers to escort their surveillance
ships in the area. And the Chinese have responded by
denouncing the American actions as hostile and declaring that
this area is exclusively for Chinese you certainly there
is something wrong with this story. I don't know what it is.
I get to haven't got a bunch of sketchy information who knows
what the Oh, and they can they attacked him with water hoses? I
mean, what does that fit into the picture that things were
like they would look like two wooden
Yeah. or like fire boats
floating around, you know, lost. And they had their property
spray the American boat because this thing was like 20,000 times
bigger than these little pieces of crap one of those catamaran
jobbies.
They tried to spray the boat with the fire hose to get their
attention. Please don't ram us. I don't know. Well, but this is
I think it's a Reuss for something else.
We've had so many say there was a huge terrorist warning in the
Netherlands. Oh man, this really set my inlaws off Poor, poor
people. They're 83 years old. They're on the phone. Of course,
they call me immediately thinking I'm going to know
anything. Do they listen to no agenda? Thank God they don't
like God. Adam, do you have to swear so much? I think it would
be different. Adam do you have to be living so you shoot your
so they
shut down a huge shopping area, including the IKEA because they
got a call that this is the best that got a call from a Belgian
prepaid mobile phone, which apparently had such an explicit
description of the bombs and the people who are going to set them
off suicide or otherwise, that they immediately locked it down.
The whole country went into Red Alert. everyone's freaking out.
They arrested seven guys. They're pounding through all
these people's houses. Immediately the news comes out.
This one of these guys is linked to one of the Madrid bombers
that got away, which I don't think they actually I think they
they never convicted anyone of the Madrid bombings. And two
days later, of course, they had to set all seven of them free.
Yeah, sounds like a typical exercise in futility. Well,
or perhaps please, whatever you do, don't look at the ATX. Don't
look at the stock market. Don't look at the what's happening in
the world. Don't listen to Real News. We have all these horrible
things happening with these multiple shootings. But well,
you know, the one in Germany. Oh, yeah. Yeah, there's just
lots of stuff. Awesome. Lots of death and destruction coming
down. Oh, wait a minute, ladies, gentlemen. And now back to real.
Beavers could be reintroduced into England.
England has no beavers.
And now back to real. Yeah. More than 500 years it's been since
we've had them in the UK, they're going to reintroduce the
beavers to this island. They say it's good. Because they eat
stuff.
And chop down trees. big controversy
about the beavers whether we should have beavers or not.
Actually remember that guy from the band, I think was blink 182
DJ am member he was in a plane crash and a private plane crash
and he and he lived. I'm sure you caught that real news? No,
this was a while ago. Yeah. There were two guys who who
survived this Lear jet crash which ran off the end of the
runway and broke up and caught fire. And he was in the Real
News, saying that he actually was scheduled to be on the
buffalo flight. What are the chances of that? Like, I should
emigrate?
That is That is weird.
I mean, they say that, you know, chances of you dying in an air
disaster are so small, but then to you know, to come so close
twice is pretty amazing.
There was somebody in one of these catastrophes that was
supposed to be in another catastrophe but they missed a
flight or something.
I was reading about it that happens all the time.
Like I was you know would have been killed but then he's
coincidentally missed a flight and he gets killed on another
flight. So I think I would do you know, she's a safe falling
from this from the building above and moves out of the way
he gets hit by the piano.
Prince Charles who just went I thought the guy was going to be
okay. From a P. Britain's Prince Charles warned on Thursday,
mankind has 100 months or less to save the planet from a
climate caused disaster.
Can they say this look like a couple of years ago?
100 months or less?
Here's what bothers me. We had a story that we have one we have a
climate change junkie on the bond blog. He's always every
time you post any skepticism he posts something else. It's says
we're all doomed. But the one that gets me is the more recent
mentioned that this guy, climate change expert Nicholas Stern,
who's told 2000 climate scientists meeting in Copenhagen
that they failed to clearly tell humanity what it faces if global
temperatures reached the upper range of forecasts made by the
US IPCC which is the we have united, which
started all this Yeah,
united in or in the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel
for Climate Change and destroying all Western
economies, it should be the real title. He says there's been a
lot of scientific evidence he goes on and on. He says, new
findings show that these projections were vastly
understated. And everyone who is worse than we thought, what I'm
thinking when I read this stuff it can't you get this, right. I
mean, it's like worse than retires better than those worse
than we thought. Were or the addition numbers are so solid.
Why do they keep upgrading and changing them and in flux? I
mean, in other words, if we're so solidly, you know, we have
strong evidence that's irrefutable. And everyone
agrees. Well, did everyone agree that it just changed? I can't
believe
that Prince Charles is not on the front page of every single
newspaper with this, listen to what he's saying. The best
projections tell us that we have less than 100 months to alter
our behavior before we risk catastrophic climate change and
the unimaginable horrors that this would bring. What are those
horrors you asked John? Any difficulties which the world
faces today will be nothing compared to the full effects
which global warming will have on the worldwide economy. He
said, it will result in vast movements of people escaping
either flooding or droughts, droughts, in uncertain
production of foods and lack of water, and of course, increasing
social instability and potential conflict. It will affect the
well being of every man, woman and child on our planet.
So it sounds like to me for an excuse for a European army to
keep out too raggedy poor.
Well, I'm glad you brought that up, because that's exactly what
Sarkozy has been moving toward the president of France who just
the other day after 40 years said you know what? That NATO
thing Yeah, we should be in that. This is shaking the French
to the very roots.
Well, the French you gotta get rid of that guy. Gonna be
more French. The guy in yachting in French about him is he's got
a hot wife. And that's not actually that French. Do you
think about it? She's
Italian dude. Remember Silvio Silvio gave her to him.
Somewhere. There's a an article I was reading. Oh, I think it's
in that helicopter story. That Berlusconi leaned over to
Sarkozy, and said during some public thing in his ear,
remember, I gave you Carla? Telling you man makes so much
sense. These guys are on a little You're right. They are in
the drinking club. And guess what? They drink. They drink
your blood in this club. They are drinking your blood. And
I'll link in the show notes to all of the fantastic articles as
predicted, linking Jade Goody to the HPV vaccination. Luckily,
and this blows me away. I didn't know this. Luckily, also a lot
of women in the United Kingdom have gone for a cervical test
which in America we call a pap smear. They don't call it that
here. schmeer schmeer schmeer. It's like, on your bagel cheese
mirror like a pap smear with that? You know that women do not
get a cervical test under the UK health plan until they're 25.
That sounds wrong. I know. Yeah. But so now the FDA has approved
DNA testing for HPV. So this is this is of course, the route
that it needs to take. So not only can we inject you with
whatever we say is safe, but do this test. So we have your DNA
on file, and we can actually see if you're going to get this
cancer based upon your DNA. And this is this is all said as
shit, man. Of course it's bad. FDA approves two new HPV tests
is trying to get a database of everybody's DNA. That's right,
man, it's gonna they're gonna get it to
it's going to be a lot easier to trump up charges
that I also see somewhere a couple of news articles about
some it was like an imaging of it was some some tests some
scientists had done it was it was a little sidebar column that
they can do the imaging on your brain patterns and based upon
how your brain thinks and you know, that spot is actually big
news here. Okay. So if I was very marginal news here, it
fires off, you know, neutron shit, whatever is electrons, and
they can image that and then they He can identify you just
based on a scan of people's brainwaves. Yeah, for pre crime,
right to see if you're going to actually Well, I think I would
say this is probably LinkedIn to those new airport scanners. So
here's the theory, man.
Oh, good. Because I went on one of the newest of the new
scanners, I usually do this. Tell me about your experience.
Okay, well, that the scanner right there. The first thing I
went through some months back, they had these things called
they were called puffers, and you go in there, and they're
just blow air all over it. And then they analyze the air. See
if there's any chemicals, they took those out. So now they got
this new thing called a micron or micro or some weird thing. I
think it takes a single day, I think, I don't know what that
mechanism is, but I'm guessing it's ultra. It's ultra wide.
Pulsed radio X ray kept
it basically, they can see what you look like naked. And that's
basically the result.
It's a true thing. Okay, so you get in, but it's who knows
what's going on?
Your hands up in the air? Yeah, you put your hands up in the
air. How should he do you feel? How do you how much enslaved do
you feel when they make you stand in that box and put your
arms
turns away, and he's always open high, low, higher. And so
anyway, here's the thing, they have a big sign at the airport.
And they have only one of these things. And there's like three
or four, six lines maybe going through. And if you go to this
line, it says if you go into this crazy machine, you will be
less chance of a pat down and less chance that there's less
chance that bull is just the opposite. You go into the
machine and if you have a piece of paper in your pants,
the guys will like test for something else is really big.
Yeah, well next time I'm wearing a sock. So anyway, the so you go
through this thing and they can take a look at you says guys,
you know it could lose a little weight. And then they they say
that like whisper that man and got a fat fucking
weight. Oh, look what's coming up in line number three, they're
holy. Oh boy, get her over in my life. So anyway, so the so the
guy so the guy says was George on your front rack because I had
a piece of paper in my pocket. He saw the paper, weirdly
enough, he didn't see the comb in my back pocket. So the thing
didn't work that well. So anyway, so he Pat's me down. And
he's just patting like a maniac, because I think there's testing
this gear and they want to see what mistakes had made. And EPA,
by the way, during the pat down, he missed the comb himself.
Unbelievable. So the so the machine was
kill someone with a comb, you know? Or you could you could you
slit their throat. You could comb the pilots hair.
So anyway, so then, and he's, again, he's patting me down so
much in the backend. Now, just one second away. So could you
scratch a little bit to write? You said that? No, I couldn't
bring myself to because I just was better because I went to
this for the for the purposes of our listeners, I went through
this process. I
refuse my Go ahead.
I always like to check these things out. But I tell people
don't go through it. It's just a big waste of time. It takes
longer. So meanwhile, I had some I was carrying all this gear in
my luggage and so they had to look at my luggage too. So this
guy says your bag, you know, but me well.
Did you have? Did you have meats in your bag?
I don't have meats when I'm going back. Okay. So I had a
bunch of meat when I was coming in from Wisconsin. And they
stopped me and said, What's this? You know, because it looks
like these sausages from Wisconsin. They look like
dynamite or something. Right? Because it's in there. So what
do you got? You got frozen meat to guess? Okay. I said you can't
leave Wisconsin without me. And this is your right?
Hey, tell someone there to stop downloading porn, man, you're
breaking up.
So it shouldn't be anything going well, anyway, I with this
10 megabits, I shouldn't be breaking up ever. Anyway, so I
go through the end. And then I say to the guy who's going
through my luggage to look at this equipment. And I said,
Well, that is a piece of crap. You're talking about the device.
I said that thing's a piece of crap. Is it supposed to make
things faster, slows you down? It doesn't even seem to work.
And the guy was don't be such a buzzkill man,
the guy says to me, I know bottled garbage really
well so while it's not picking up that comb in your back
pocket, it's I think it's probably it's scanning your some
kind of profile and they can see you through the satellite.
And it's crap. It's a piece of crap. So that thing's another
expensive piece of junk. And you Fianna You're right? You had to
stand there in the arms in the air. It's stupid.
It's the stupidest thing I've ever seen. It's just demeaning.
I don't like
it thickness. But anyways, I'll just for people, when you see
one of those machines go to the other end because it'll slow you
down. It's not does They claim it's going to speed things up.
It doesn't speed things up. It's cuts the numbers in half. It
goes twice as slow with this piece of garbage in the way. So
there you have it.
So since we can't seem to get a break on any reporting on this
horrible mixture of bird flu and flu vaccine since mainstream
media's just completely ignoring it, and every country where it's
been distributed where it was sent to. It's weird. Yeah, I
will say though that currently 58 cases of bird flu in Egypt.
So I think you just got to start looking into places where this
is breaking out and watch it spread and and watch it happen
as they start to tell us we need to get a vaccine a shot.
It's somewhat it's disgusting. And by the way, which brings me
to the point that, you know, stuff like this is what makes
the show interesting. Now, last week, I said I was going to
mention all the 100 and end and the $50. contributors. Okay, so
I was going to do that from here, we're going to have to do
on Thursday because I went to my Pay Pal account, which has a
list of all of them. And for some reason, because we got a
lot of subscriptions last week door donation, sorry. It's told
me that I couldn't access the account because I needed a
security code because I think I'm coming in from a different
IP. So they have enough information about me that they
now won't let me look at my own account. Even though I have the
password everything I need a secondary password, which is
actually a good thing, because PayPal is always everyone's
scared. They're hacked. Exactly. So I had, so I can't read the
names, because they won't let me look at the list until I get
back home to the other house. And then I'll draw on Thursday,
we'll list everybody off and who, who donated 50 or $100. And
then we'll thank everybody else who's who has a continuing
contribution in some sort. But if you feel the need, and you
should, because we're the only ones talking about this bird flu
story, for example. It's dvorak.org/n. A
or no agenda library.com.
It's dvorak.org/in. A, it's the is the place to go.
Why not just no agenda library.com It goes to the same
place order I select the
n a thing, just because I can do it. Okay, what you can do
doesn't make any difference the money go it's not like we're
competing. And we don't actually have counters on the sides to
see who goes to Adams site. And my although we could no god no,
that means work. Competition, you know, no. Anyway, I want to
I do want to thank three things you can do, you can give us just
a straight up donation, which we'd appreciate 1500 bucks is
ideal, because then you get mentioned with maybe some
fanfare, and then
a jingle with a jingle and then you get it. Yeah, that's what
we'll do. When we get a new subscriber who's donated like
we're gonna give you an in the morning. Like a shout out. We'll
give you an in the
morning. Morning. So we'll do this on Thursday. Sorry, I
apologize. I just gives more people the opportunity to get
the you know, and help out.
I'd like to thank Cheryl who listened to our call about
farming. Remember, we asked if there were any farmers in the
audience. And not only did we get a farmer but we got a woman,
which is like a double whammy for us. But I think the count
now is four female listeners to this program. I heard it was
six. Adam, Thanks for your concern about farmers and their
ability to plant a crop this year. My husband and I are
Midwestern corn farmers and have witnessed a few neighbors having
difficulty obtaining financing for crop inputs this year. In
fact, we have some cropland that we rent to a fairly large farmer
whose rent check for this year just bounced last year as
commodity prices rode to record levels so that our fertilizer
chemical seed fuel land rent other input costs, grain prices
have dropped dramatically. But most input costs have not rent
is doubled. Since costs were completely out of control. Last
fall many farmers prepaid inputs in order to control cost and
sold grain on futures contracts to local ethanol plants to cover
their butts. If they sold to Verizon, the bankruptcy court
has ordered the farmers to deliver the grain to the plants
but the four to $6 a bushel they were promised for the grain will
not be honored. These people are getting screwed, man.
You know, yeah, when there's also that ethanol thing going
on. So I'm dimensioned I was I used some I was in Wisconsin I
ran I rented up one of those little funky looking Chevy's it
looked like a PT Cruiser, and it used flex fuel. Was that a
combo? It would it means it'll run on gasoline or what they
call e 85. And e 85. is ethanol 85% ethanol and I don't know
what else I guess some gasoline is necessary in there. And so
I'm going back to the airport and I and I'm driving along
gonna have to get some gas to fill up the tank and gas because
I don't take that scam deal. The car rental companies give you a
rule of pre pay. And so I'm going back and there's a gas
station that has e 85. I've never seen an e 85. Pump in my
life. If I actually had got
a blog just because I took a picture of it as a good
experience.
Yeah, no, I will, besides that ethanol, I think is a really
interesting fuel. But what was the most interesting thing was
if you took a picture of the sign, the regular gas at the
time was $2.19 a gallon. And then the premium was like 240.
And the diesel was like, you know, 240 or so. The E 85 was a
buck 69. So it's really cheap, cheaper than everything. And so
I'm thinking, Well, you know, it's it can keep the price down.
My understanding is you can make a profit from this stuff. But if
you're selling at such a low price, it seems that somebody's
making money. But I don't know how many 85 Cars are floating
around. Maybe it's just got to lower the price to get people to
use this stuff. I'm not sure
sure winds up by saying the mega farmers seem to know how to work
the system and they get all the huge subsidies. Obama wants
sorts, Obama wants to reduce the maximum gross farm revenue from
direct farm payments, a net income ceiling would be more
sensible, larger farmers can afford to postpone selling their
crop in order to maximize government payments. Have no
fear about food shortages, though the big farms will snap
up available cropland immediately. Yeah, Monsanto will
pull Monsanto sells the seeds to those big guys, you know, but as
of today, the by the way, the worst part about these big
farmers and I think this woman or anybody who's in the farming
community would agree. They produce crap. I mean, that the
difference you know what, it'll change that a
total shit. We do not shop for food at Sainsbury anymore, all
that or the fake organic but as a nice little picture of a
chicken running around in acres of Greg grassland. It's
bullshit. Okay, that's organic.
So I'm, you know, some years ago I you know, I was before I had
children and all the rest of it and I've gotten into being the
foodie. You know, I'd only eat butter lettuce and I've always
issue you know, Iceberg lettuce because it was like, you know,
low rent. But when you have kids and you want to feed them
lettuce of any sort, you have to actually get Iceberg lettuce.
Because the kids won't eat anything else. Damn kids. They
won't eat butter lettuce or Boston lettuce or Bibb lettuce,
they want something crunchy. So you start using Iceberg lettuce
again, I did not realize now I actually use it still all the
time just for my own because I like it. Because what I was
doing I didn't realize that I had early on especially when I
was a kid and whenever the iceberg lettuce at my mom and
then even I might have gotten most from a big chain like
Safeway. Compared to the iceberg lettuce I get from a vegetable
market like in Berkeley or we have Monterey foods in the
Berkeley bowl, but I shove it in Monterey foods. I think it's
friendlier. But anyway, they the iceberg lettuce from them is
radically different. And so I didn't realize this until a few
years ago, me eating this iceberg lettuce from Monterey
foods and it's like, you know, it's pretty, you know, it's
tasty, it's gotten good crunchy. For some reason, I had to get
some lettuce and I went to Safeway, and I bought the bud or
whatever this brand is here, this national brand of Daredevil
you. So I went got this lettuce, and I took one bite of it. And
it was he was like, it was horrible. It tasted that he had
no flavor. In fact, it had like a negative flavor. It was like
it was like sucking the labor. sucking the lifeblood out of
you. It was like horrible lettuce. It had no taste. It was
it was it was just it was repulsive. And I really liked it
at that point, you know, because I kind of realized it to some
extent but I didn't realize how bad some of these fruits and
vegetables are that are these these you know this that are
manufactured by a machine by the machine of a big farm. So
anyway, that's my little So
since we've been living here in in southwest London we have that
butcher shop which is really more than a butcher shop He's
got everything but fish so he has all kinds of meats, poultry,
but also fresh vegetables potatoes you know right there
sacks of it. I mean, it's that is a real organic and sort of,
you know, written certification from the farmers about what each
animal was fed you know, these guys would properly hang it up
you know, so that you got one bloody end of these big slabs of
meat I mean it we have we are just amazed at the taste of real
food because when we were living in Guilford, you there was
really no butcher or or greengrocer to go to you were
pretty much locked into either driving all day just to get a
meal from all these different shops because nothing is located
conveniently next to each other or go to the big box Sainsbury
and we are just blown away by taste again. You have no idea
how how much you're missing with the shit that they're that
they're processed crap with colorized water injected shit
they're selling you.
How do you read Really feel? Yeah, no, I agree. And the fact
is, is that you know, real food is, is something that we have to
promote and because it's good for you, it was
gotta be good for you i day we hate to be corny but it's kind
of life affirming. I was like, it was like a piece of meat now
go. This is life affirming the peso down. It's something that
just tastes like crap or it's just you can taste it as
manufactured. But I was doing I was in a wine tasting once with
a bunch of pros. It was a professional tasting of some
California wines in a competition and, and this was
back, I think 15 In the mid 90s or so when, when Gallo Sonoma
was just opening up its opening up shop and they had brought
over these fermenters from Australia and they were making
this based on Nano setup over the Darryl groom had over at
geyser peak, which is a very Australian style winery. And so
they set up shop that same way and they have this Gina Gallo
who's like who's famous you know, winemaker and everything
and go so I was working at CDTV with one of the girls there that
happened to be put the competitor family the frenzy as
hoots apparently split up with the gallows sometime in 1800s.
And the two families hate each other and they she has all the
dirt. She says that Gina doesn't really make anything at all.
She's just a man. And she thought that winds were
horrible, of course, but they of course friends he makes wines in
a box. So what can you say? Anyway, back to the story. So I
bet so Gallo had put a lot the gala has an interesting
marketing trick which is very similar to the razor blade
companies at least they are alleged to have when you buy a
new new blade comes the new triple from so and so from
Gillette you buy those the sample with the two blades have
been sharper lasts for months and years almost in these
things. And then you buy the replacement blades that go dull
after a week. And so Gallo has this trick with a if anyone sees
a new winery they have I think turning leaf was one of theirs.
They roll out this wine and new brand. The stuff is absolutely
dynamite for like one or two vintages I mean really seriously
cheap and tasty. And then they just start to then you go back
and they start cutting it with baking soda. Well they cut it
well not baking soda necessarily. Obviously there's
they're not using the same quality ingredients later. But
it's a trick. It's a marketing trick. But the thing about the
they had so they had these really fancy Cabernets, they
were making I think the 96 Vintage was one of them in that
era. And the stuff was absolutely delicious. It tastes
just like a Cabernet. And but I was discussing one. And they
were always winning awards that because everyone would blind
tasting, you just think it was great. But I was after a couple
of years of this, I was sitting around at the lunch with one of
these guys who was a big wine buyer for big chain. And I said
yeah, it's kind of like the way that Gallo is tasting it. And
the guy just says to me just out and it says you don't think it
tastes manufactured. And which is the kind of thing you do to
walk in wine tasting circles. Now, you bring up something like
that you didn't notice it was oxidized.
It was clearly cork, cork wines.
Anyone could see it. So anyway, he said that. Soon as he said
that, it dawned on me that there is a manufactured taste in Gallo
wines. And that wine actually exhibited it. And that then the
manufactured taste is sometimes you know is artificially tasty
or they say fake it or they do something, you know, they pump
it up. And that's what if you look in the back of a cereal box
of these big companies do ingredients or like there's a
million things in there to give you the impression that it's
better quality than it is.
I become a real ingredient reader. I gotta tell you, you
look if there's anything and then the you can don't know what
it is don't eat it. That's the way I look at it. Oh, that's
nice. I won't eat that.
Anyway, my wine story harkens back to a PR guy that worked for
one of these companies. He says he says when you go into the
back of these whiners where they're making all this stuff he
says the kinds of bags of weird things.
weird ingredients weird shit going in there
is just makes you wonder what the heck does wine is
consistent? You know what's in this wine? That's why we only
drink French wine. Well, they adulterate to but not the better
wineries in Bordeaux.
Let me just run down some important. By the
way, let me just stop you. Somebody asked for more wine and
food chit chat so I thought I'd throw in a couple of anecdotes.
There you go.
Thank you. Totally appreciated. It ties into so many different
things. Certainly regarding food. You know Disney is now
selling eggs Did you see this is I'm surprised you didn't have
this on the blog the Disney eggs? No, I
never would diaper Oh, it's
freaky man. Yeah, there's you get a little mold with it. So
you can make like a Mickey Mouse. You get their moldy eggs.
If you got a mold that you pressed into the egg with you
break the egg into so it it fries like Mickey Mouse ears.
But each egg is stamped with an individual Character eyes oh,
it's just scary man I would not buy my eggs from Disney
actually, I'm surprised that the yolk is even yellow.
Oh in the commercial there's a link in the show notes extremely
yellow you in fact it looks a little undercooked on the
commercial. It's there
it's yolk is really yellow then it was an American Egg. It's
really I mean, unless it's a yard egg. I mean, we have our
own chickens and so we get these great A's with they're like they
want you to get an England we should have a really dark yolk.
And apparently the American somebody discovered Americans
don't like dark yolks they want something that's bland and kind
of light yellow, which is like nauseating.
Just the whole egg thing is when you think about it, it's not
really nice it's nasty. It's
one cell to one cell anyway so eating a cell I don't know it's
interesting Disney eggs
stuffing not just our food but I don't know if this is a big deal
over in the states it should be more than half of the baby
shampoos lotions and other infant care products that have
been analyzed by of course the health advocacy group found
stuff like oat formaldehyde they dioxane This is not stuff you
should be putting on your baby I don't think
you can put your baby with dioxin
I mean and this is like from you know the Johnson and Johnson
company man to put from why formaldehyde obviously it's it's
to keep the product to help it last longer. I presume shelf
life shelf life yeah, but I mean you can't can't be putting
formaldehyde and shit that babies put on their skin. This
doesn't make sense.
It's a sick world.
Not quite as sick as as the UK as of today. As of today at this
very moment. My surfing habits, IP addresses times of use.
connections made through the interwebs are being logged by my
ISP and handed over to the intelligence services of the
United Kingdom.
They're gonna wonder why you're on so long today. What's he
doing? The What is he doing? You? Streaming? He's streaming
dreaming dreaming?
It's exactly mean I could just you guys like smoking a
cigarette. Hey, man. Oh, no. Oh, no, man, it's it's kind of
Moeraki streaming again. Oh, what are we gonna do?
Actually is even worse with you. You're not only streaming to the
ER little audience of live listeners. But you're doing a
Skype call.
So you got actually two's double double up, double up. Yep.
Sir. That's suspicious right there.
Sir Tim Berners Lee is turning up the heat I wanted I do want
to give him a plug because he's really trying to stop this shit
heat. Unfortunately, for some reason, whenever someone says
the web everyone hails Tim Berners Lee Oh, Tim Berners Lee,
he's the man. He did it all. He's fantastic. Wow, Tim Berners
Lee, you fucking rock. But when the guy is standing there
saying, hey, help, the internet is being fucked, literally by
form. And by this directive Data directive, he started a
foundation. No one talks about it no one were all the FANBOYS.
Now, you should be Lincoln to the stories helping him out he
set up a huge Foundation, which is huge in name and grandeur and
ideas building
he was complaining about
we have the that we quote him. We use the internet without a
thought that a third party would know what we have clicked on.
But the URLs reveal people use revealed a huge amount about
their lives, loves hates and fears. This is extremely
sensitive information. People use the web in a crisis, you
know, as he's going on and on. He just he doesn't want this
company form pH o RM, which is being introduced by all five
major ISPs here to be logging your clickstream and then
inserting ads wherever they feel appropriate. And of course, the
whole idea that all of your data is at this moment as of today
not only being captured by the ISP but being handed over to the
authorities for them to route through it.
Seems as though the British public is pretty passive about
all this stuff.
I think the going to snap at a certain point,
you keep saying and then there's evidence that has happened in
the past but I'm I'm thinking maybe they're being so beat
down.
It's, it's really, really, really sad. It is what it is.
And of course what I've resorted to now or what I'll do is I just
set up the VPN connection with the San Francisco office and
surf through there.
Yeah, I could do the same things a little bit slower on Forza
islands. You're tracking us as much
That FISA bill, man, let me just might be okay to wrap it up.
We've talked about this before, but now President Obama also
declares that the ACTA, this is the into intellectual property
Treaty, which is global one is a national security secret, and
therefore nothing about this agreement can be disclosed to
the public. No, sorry. Nothing about this agreement can be
disclosed to the public.
What's What, what's the agreement?
This is the ACTA, the intellectual property agreement
that we've got. But
there's an intellectual property agreement, people need to know
what it is so they can act appropriately regarding their
own intellectual property. So what's it all about? What's it
say?
Please be advised. The documents you seek are being withheld in
full road Carmen zero Brady, Chief Freedom of Information
Officer in the White House, White House's office of the US
trade wage? Oh, hold on a second. Isn't this supposed to
be a transparent white house?
National security man, who are you? Who are you?
to question the national security, national security?
Well, it's really important that no one copies are really good
ideas. Okay. That's national security, dude.
Oh, that's fine. There's nothing wrong with that. But what's that
got to do with not knowing what to what the bill says? It's
because it's bad for the children.
It always comes down to that you
watch you watch. It's for the children. I don't understand it.
It makes no sense that you have an intellectual property,
jingle. Yeah, follow up. And, once again, the shuttle launch
has been delayed. They say it might go today, the
International Space Station that was actually evacuated earlier
in the week,
because they was evacuated during our show, if you recall,
what was actually during our show. Thanks. So because I was
reading a news flash.
Yeah, the Russians had to get out because there was a five
inch piece of metal that was flying out in their way. I could
do some damage, I guess. I guess. So the space wars
continue. We're still hunting for Chinese submarines, though
the world is pretty much the same. Although I have to say,
every single periodical in the United Kingdom in the past two
days was very upbeat, Everyone is very excited. Because the
economy based upon the Dow Jones rally is doing much better we're
pulling out.
It could be I mean, as if Obama now comes out and actually does
some positive CES, some positive messages, it would help a
little, rather, as opposed to his dour vibe, it's gonna get
worse. Because the whole thing is just a bluff. Well, it seems
very similar to some of the people who lost their jobs, but
I'm just saying what I'm saying it
seems really simple to me, please just deal with the 1.2
quadrillion dollars of toxic assets, adjust the currency
accordingly. Move on with your life and start over again. Can't
they just do that?
It's not in the scheme of things. They have some plan that
we don't know. We can maybe deconstructed after it happens
but we don't know what it is yet. God I don't even know who
they is. Well, it's although you seem to
well, they listen. They Snoop they know whether we
loop and now we're going to actually have some fans within
mi six I suppose. Because of the of the show being tapped by the
although it's coming to wait no, the stream is very tappable
because you can just pick that up.
Listen to it. You can say hey, listen, mi six it's no agenda
stream.com Go ahead. Listen, all you
are listeners maybe they could give us some money. You know, I
think we could do with $100,000 for an MI six and give them the
one minute the disinformation moment of the moment
disinformation one minute.
So now as I'm I'm right there with you, I'm going to remain
very positive because I like the fact that everyone is on a
positive tip. Everyone said hey, wait a minute, things are going
okay. And we raised a maximum amount or the most money ever
for Red Nose Day. The weather is nice, it's sunny. You know a lot
of people without a job but other than that just might be
okay.
Well, it would be we have a little mini boom coming up that
would follow my pattern low better. Hope for that.
I have. I have thought about that. Could be your your mini
boom.
Mini boom. Okay, why
coming to you from Gitmo nation East and Southwest London.
Hidden away in the crackpot command center. I'm Adam curry
and I'm up here in the Pacific Northwest, get mo nation Pacific
Northwest, this like to do. And John C. Dvorak
will talk to you again on Thursday. Right here on no
agenda
