wake (the flake): They STILL put flouride in water in USA? I thought they stopped that 20 years ago!
Mudhead: thats for my other bothah Obama, he takes those disposins
Dexter Fong: Wake: YOu gotta get home more often
Not_Sure: The Small Animal Dispoal Service Administration?
Dexter Fong: Anything up to 79 pounds
Mudhead: the Office for
H. Stones: no, Wake, 70% of people get it and they are still trying to expand it, Canad, Ireland and Israel do but everyone else abandoned it as dangerous and innfective
Mudhead: What about if ya cut em up?
H. Stones: i think this old KB is shagged out
Dexter Fong: Mud: It'; cost you extra for postage and handling
Mudhead: Cuz you'ld never get a moose in there
Not_Sure: The conventions are circus. Get Obama, McCain and Paul on a stage ;)
Dexter Fong: In a cage match, Mudhead
llanwydd: what do you know about flouride that we don't, stones?
llanwydd: how dangerous is it?
wake (the flake): I suppose Dow Chemical is behind it,
Dexter Fong: oops , Not Sure
Not_Sure: Paul'd smoke 'em with facts - including _this_ is what The Constitution says about it....
H. Stones: probably rather a lot llan
Not_Sure: It's like getting the whole country on some medication so they feel good.
Dexter Fong: Are you a Floridian, Homes?
Dexter Fong: Nino has you in England
Not_Sure: Apparently Jamaica is not allowed commercials lol
H. Stones: rather so they dont feel at all. Hitler and Stalin both used it in their death camps, it kept everyone quiet
llanwydd: no, television is the feelgood drug
Not_Sure: I am Floridian by birth, actually
wake (the flake): They are big producersof the main ingrediant.
Dexter Fong tries to speak
Mudhead: I'd appreciate some bread with these circuses
Not_Sure: And I sometimes wonder what was in the water in '54
llanwydd: the government has it's long fingers deep in the media
Not_Sure: wow Stones, didn't know that about Hitler
Not_Sure: Alex Jones makes that claim
H. Stones: if you have any questions about it, i will delighted to field them
Not_Sure: I will investigate the Austin City supply, I assure you
llanwydd: visualize self-government
Dexter Fong: Check the pH while your'e at it Not_
llanwydd: you must admit, nothing good happens unless you visualize it first
H. Stones: If you have ever seen the long queues of jews and gypsies in the death camps, did it ever make you wonder why 25,000 prisoners were so quiet and orderly in the face of their fate when there were olny a couple of dozen guards ?
Dexter Fong: Anarchy in the USA
Dexter Fong: Girls and Boys gone wild
Not_Sure: try this video out when you have an extra moment - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ei0ch-y7r5c
Dexter Fong: and it's not even spring break
Not_Sure: It's a brief description of Libertarian philosophy
Not_Sure: Self-Ownership is a big part of it
Dexter Fong: Librarian Philosophy?
llanwydd: I didn't notice that stones. what was the cause?
Not_Sure: Let me guess, Stones.... automatic weapons?
Not_Sure: shhhhhh, Dex
llanwydd: although I am guessing that the cause was the sharpshooters in the guard towers
Dexter Fong: Your flouride treatment is three weeks over due, you will be fined...er uh fine!
H. Stones: so many people could quickly over run automatic weapons when they had so little to lose, but they had lost all hope and imagination,
Dexter Fong: llan: And twenty years of tyranny
Dexter Fong: You see it all began with little things...here and there....until finally there was no answer
llanwydd: I was thinking about that just today, dex
llanwydd: I see a more subtle form of it rising in the USA
Not_Sure: The were going to get clean deviolen, er, loused Stones
Dexter Fong: How so, llan?
Not_Sure: Read "They Thought They Were Free" by Milton Mayer
H. Stones: it was the Nazis who loused them up in the first place
llanwydd: well, in particular, the judicial system, as we call it
Not_Sure: -- ...when the Nazis attacked the Communists, he was a little uneasy, but, after all, he was not a Communist, and so he did nothing; and then they attacked the Socialists, and he was a little uneasier, but still, he was not a Socialist, and he did nothing; and then the schools, the press, the Jews, and so on, and he was always uneasier, but still he did nothing. And then they attacked the Church, and he was a Churchman, and he did something - but then it was too late. -- from the book "They Thought They Were Free" by Milton Mayer - interviews with ordinary German citizens about the rise of Nazism in Germany
llanwydd: america is putting more people in jail that any other country and the rate of incarceration keeps rising steadily
Dexter Fong: llan: Yeah, there would seem to be a lot of that stuff around presently...but things work slowly in the history of nations, all you can do is be alert and prepared to demonstrate
Not_Sure: per capita, yes
Not_Sure: It's big business. Private corporations need clients ;)
Not_Sure: The drus war is a farce, as most Libertarian will tell you
llanwydd: exactly, tween
Not_Sure: It's a money-maker for both sides
Not_Sure: You wont get rid of the violence until you legalize
Dexter Fong: Not+: Of course but if you have a legislature of republicans and scared democrats/////
Not_Sure: drug war
llanwydd: what I read is that if the rate of incarceration keeps accelerating like it is, theoretically, more than half of the population of the US will be in jail by the year 2050
H. Stones: its strange that you cannot take a substance of your own choice yet you can be given compulsorary medication in the water supply which is poisonous
Not_Sure: Incarceration for drug abuse is against The Constitution
Dexter Fong: llan: Is that a Thursday do you happen to know?
llanwydd: lol dex
llanwydd: the government hates the constitution
Not_Sure: I will gladly pay you Thursday for a Tuesday today....
llanwydd: the police hate the constitution
Dexter Fong: Not_: =))
llanwydd: because the constitution is for the purpose of limiting authority
Not_Sure: "See you next Tuesday Myerson??" - from the movie Hopscotch
llanwydd: I had to remind a cop of what the fourth amendment stated not too long ago
llanwydd: you would think they would have to know about the fourth amendment
Dexter Fong: Issh that the Hopshhcoth with Sean Connery?
Dexter Fong: And Miss Moneypenny, now promoted to "M"?
Not_Sure: LL's got it right, imho
Not_Sure: Just enough government to make things work
Not_Sure: Not some grand overseer of our lives
Dexter Fong: Step away from the assertation, _Sure
llanwydd: like I say, visualize self-government
llanwydd: nothing good ever happens unless you visualize it first
||||||||| At 10:57 PM, the lights go out! Rocky Rococo's voice pierces the inky darkness: "I've got you now, wake (the flake)!" Shattering glass is heard, and then the lights come back on...
Dexter Fong: I'm working on self-control...GODDAMMIT!!!!
Not_Sure: I really have to post the SNL Celeberty Jeopardy episodes with Connery. rofl stuff
H. Stones: keep things as local as possible
Dexter Fong: Including your phone calls
Not_Sure: That's it Stones
Dexter Fong: Stay within your area code
llanwydd: if enough people do that, we will all be governing ourselves someday
Not_Sure: You're familiar with "The Long Emergency" and "World Made By Hand", Stones?
Dexter Fong: Clem is going for a marathon tonight
H. Stones: Yes NS
llanwydd: in the meantime, I think there will probably be a world government eventually
llanwydd: not in our lifetime I'm sure
ah,clem: well, this is the last movie....
Not_Sure: And we thanks you for it, Mr clem :)
H. Stones: but if there is to be a world government we have to make sure that they are not anybodys puppets and still recognise regional and local self government
ah,clem :)
Not_Sure: Might be the opposite, LL
Dexter Fong: llan: We need a threat from an outter space enemy to unite us...Any ideas...and vusualization?
H. Stones: i think our policies since WW2 have created a world crisis that should link us all
llanwydd: well, like I say, if enough people visualize self-government, we can avoid a one world government
Not_Sure: This era was built on a one-time gift from the planet of cheap energy
||||||||| Catherwood enters the room, strikes a gong, and bellows "THE TIME IN NEW YORK IS 11 O'CLOCK", then silently exits.
llanwydd: I can certainly govern myself
Dexter Fong: away for refill
Not_Sure: The basic principles of the Constitution were amazing
llanwydd: nuclear energy might be cheap someday
H. Stones: the problem is..... those who want to rule cannot be trusted and those who can be trusted dont want to rule
Not_Sure: and damn us for allowing slavery whilst talking about 'free men' ;)
llanwydd: let the world be done with rulers
Not_Sure: Nuke was cheap in the 50's
llanwydd: I don't mind leaders, though
Not_Sure: And measuring tapes!
llanwydd: moral leaders
Not_Sure: I like a good farmer's market
llanwydd: this reminds me of something I read in Atlas Shrugged. As close as I can recall: the strength of a government lies in its ability to crack down on criminals
Not_Sure: I haven't read that
llanwydd: it shouldn't be so, but I wonder if there is anything to that
Not_Sure: Fairly new to Libertarianism, but it has appeal
H. Stones: depends on what you mean by criminal and who decides,
Not_Sure: Don't like them telling a woman what to do wither her body, though
Not_Sure: Exactly, Stones
H. Stones: being black or brown is quite clearly criminal in many places
Not_Sure: with her withered body
Not_Sure: lol
Not_Sure: no
Not_Sure: Like East London?
llanwydd: but I mean is that the attitude of the US government toward its citizens?
H. Stones: citizens just get in the way and stop the military-industrial complex doing what the hell it likes
Not_Sure: Want a national identity card so we can tell who's the citizen?
Not_Sure: It's a serious quandry
llanwydd: probably some of our oligarchy believe that
Dexter Fong: Gotta go move the car...will see who's left when I return
llanwydd: I'll likely be here
Not_Sure: Well, the Libertarians would withdraw American troops from _everywhere_
Not_Sure: later, Dex
H. Stones: maybe not a bad idea NS
Not_Sure: They hate American Imperialism, and of course it's the opposite of what The Founders wanted
llanwydd: if I belonged to a political party I would be a libertarian
Mudhead: Im goin to bed, g'nite
H. Stones: sweet dreams Mud
Merlyn: nite mud
Not_Sure: Nit Mudman
llanwydd: nite mudhead!
DonK: nite mudhead
||||||||| Catherwood says "11:09 PM, time for SOMEONE to leave!", grabs Mudhead by the collar and gives 'em the old bum's rush out the door
Not_Sure: I'm not sure I want to be classified at all. Registered Independent will do
llanwydd: more than half the prison population of the US is in jail for drug "offenses"
Not_Sure: Is that true?
Not_Sure: Thought it might be 1/4
llanwydd: that is true
llanwydd: it is more than half
H. Stones: once again it depends who decides whats a drug and how offensive it is
Not_Sure: THat's not wrong. That's insane
DonK: that's why we will never decrimalize drugs, it's a multi billion dollar business, fighting drugs
H. Stones: goes to make Tea, afk
llanwydd: the rallying cry for the drug war is always "save our children" which takes away parental responsibility
Not_Sure: What I was saying - that and the alc and tobacco lobbies
llanwydd: if parents can't protect their kids they should give them up for adoption
Not_Sure: How many car accidents do you hear about, "the driver had been smoking marijuana"
llanwydd: good grief. I've never gotten up on my soapbox like this before
llanwydd: not here anyway
llanwydd: not quite, donK. some places are decriminalizing marijuana. things are getting better
llanwydd: too slowly but they are getting better
llanwydd: like I say "VISUALIZE"!
llanwydd: some places get worse though
Not_Sure: soap! soap!
llanwydd: remember when we used to talk about the firesign theatre?
Not_Sure: TX law is quite draconian when it comes to pot
Merlyn: hey, see you next week people, gotta go
||||||||| Merlyn rushes off, saying "11:16 PM? Mark Time is almost on! Where's a radio?"
llanwydd: nite merl!
Not_Sure: Austin is a bit of an island, but I wouldn't take the chance. I'm not Willie ;)
H. Stones: we are carrying on the tradition that FT started, much of their humour was serioius satire
llanwydd: texas is the draconian state if there is one
llanwydd: even the shape of the state of texas reminds me of a police badge
llanwydd: scary
Not_Sure: FST satiric? Surely not.....
Not_Sure: lol
Not_Sure: Walker, Texas Ranger is a Hollywood actor
Not_Sure: He a grandmaster of karate, but I really don't like his movies & TV
Not_Sure: His autobiography is worth a read, thouogh
Not_Sure: Norris has my respect from what he had to deal with growing up, but I really dislike what he's done with the cinema and TV

llanwydd: I've got six or seven bogart films
Not_Sure: I've only become interested in old movies in the last few years
llanwydd: I've been a classic film buff for many years
Not_Sure: Hughes' "Hell's Angels" was amazing for its time
Not_Sure: The Star Wars of 1930
llanwydd: second best film of 1930 next to All Quiet on the Western Front
llanwydd: 1930 was a good year
Not_Sure: Will mark that one, thanks :)
llanwydd: I met the guy who restored the color scene(s) in Hell's Angels and he gave me some stills
Not_Sure: I've heard of it. Was it remade later?
DonK: i love old movie, but if they ain't on TCM i problably won't see them

Dexter Fong: Don't call me Shirley
Not_Sure: lol
Not_Sure: wb Dex
llanwydd: no, the phantom of the opera had a famous color scene
Not_Sure: Had no idea
DonK: yeah and i've seen some amazingly bad editing of movies to fit in commercials but nobody has been so vocal about that
Dexter Fong: Thnx, Teewn
llanwydd: I saw stills from a 1917 film that was in color but like I said it wasn't as realistic as today's color
Not_Sure pours Dex a couple Teewn
H. Stones: Well folks, i have to leave now, to prepare my other PC for WiFi
Not_Sure: Could have sworn that color wasn't available until the mid-30s
Dexter Fong: llan: Color *was* different in 1917, not so many pollutants in the air
H. Stones: thanks for the fun, take care all and have a great week
Not_Sure: Be well and happy, Stones :)
Dexter Fong: Be safe and sane, Stones
llanwydd: I don't know if you saw deMille's King of Kings (1927) but the resurrection scene was in color
Not_Sure: But then, unless you've watched the movie Contact, most people wouldn't know that Hitler had TV at the '36 Olympics
H. Stones: available on MSN Mess and Skype of course
Dexter Fong: God was co-producer, it was in his contract
H. Stones: TTFN
