Houston Control, Time to Ditch the Networks

 

An open letter to KPRC, KTRK and KHOU in Houston.

To Whom it may concern,

KPRC, KTRK and KHOU, you affiliate yourselves with the NBC, ABC and CBS networks respectively. Through these networks you brought me national news, which I quit watching around nineteen-eighty-two because they were lying, and I knew it, we all new it. But I did watch the locals, Dave Ward, Sara Fryer, Ron Stone, Marvin Zennler, Ron Paul, and I watched a few of the shows....

You have failed me. You should have gotten rid of the networks long ago. They offer you, (us) crap, and nothing more... I know none of the news peoples names anymore, because television has gotten so bad, I don't even turn it on. If it ain't on Youtube, I don't bother... The selection on Youtube for exceeds anything Television has to offer.....

You find things like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2H9RtjPVpLU

and this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9l67uOu4bU0

and everything in between.

You're HOUSTON...!!!! (the name sake of Sam Houston,) Do you really need the networks anymore..? Is Houston really void of talent..? Is Houston void of truth? The networks seem to be. There's what...? Six million people in five counties.... There's talent out there, don't think there's not, go look at Youtube, yes, there is talent out there, go find it, and open a door.

Time to drop the networks and do something new, bold, and give me a reason to turn the damn TV on again. Hollywood and New York are dead. Don't follow them into the grave. Instead, rise up and dust off the ashes from Hollywood and the self-centered world, and take us, Houston, and the rest of the country in a new direction.

If I stand alone in this opinion, so be it.

The pool

 

All you people who are afraid to try something new, let me tell a story.... (I'm keeping it short and sweet)

I once bought a house, and it came with a pool. A small in ground pool, about eighteen thousand gallons. All my friends thought it was nice. I told them I was going to turn it into a pond, they all laughed and said I was crazy. I told them to come over anytime and swim and enjoy it. No body ever did... Six months went by....

So I mentioned again, I going to turn it into a pond, “You're crazy,” is what I heard, “then we can't use it...” So nobody used it, another six months went by....

Well then came the big storm and blew thing all around, filling the pool with limbs and various debris. What a mess... The lights where out, the water was out for quite awhile.

In this big mess I saw opportunity to do what I had been longing to do.... I had kept an aquarium, a nice one, I new how it worked... I was filling the pool from a well, so treated city water wasn't going to be a problem, so I sat down and laid out a plan.

I just let it sit, so all the pool chlorine would dissipate. I went to work on the filter system, which didn't take much, mainly a good cleaning, with the introduction of some batting. After about two week of sitting, I filled it back up and started filtering, stirring it from time to time to get all the fine dirt out of it...

Then I introduced some lily pads and other plants to control the algae growth, and continued filtering for another two weeks.

Now I have a friend, who was coming over pretty regular for coffee telling me I was nuts, and all the things that were going to go wrong... I kept telling him, it's an eighteen thousand gallon aquarium, once it's set up, it pretty much maintains itself, just add to and filter the water.

So while I am arguing with my buddy on the state of my sanity, I get creative with some pcv pipe and make a fountain and a small water fall.

So.....after about a month of prepping, I put a couple of Wal-Mart goldfish in it. What do you know, they didn't die.. So after a couple more weeks I got some koi and through in there. They didn't die.

Then one morning, there are rings around the pool, back ones, all the way around the pool. Looking a little closer, it's eggs, thousands upon thousands of eggs. Fish eggs..? But they are not quite in the water, not quite.

Well this is a mess.... then I thought, leave it along, see what happens... After a couple of days, I had a pool full of tad-poles, it was amazing... The fish were eating tad-poles.... After a few more days there were tiny little frogs everywhere, hopping all over the place....Then after another couple of days, they all hopped away.

In the months that followed, I had friends, in their fifties, in their sixties, one fellow who was seventy-five on their bellies, petting the fish in the pond.... They were getting in the water and swimming with them, with tiny baby fish eating the dead skin off of them, telling me I was a genus.... After months of telling me I was crazy.

So..... If you have an idea.... and everybody thinks you're crazy... So what...

The fellows who were telling me I was crazy, were well educated, well rounded airline pilots.... But they didn't know squat about an aquarium, and only one of them had had a pool.

Build it, and they will come...

With a little Cooperation

 

I have a video here, a music video, and I want to talk about it a little. So go give it a watch, and then come back.-> https://youtu.be/unau6nthttg?si=qkeUhcyfsRbwvJQB

Marvelous wasn't it..? I want to talk about some of the things that made this possible. For instanced, did you notice in the beginning when all the lights in the stadium came on at once... (!!!) That is not easy to do, there would be a huge power surge, that they of course were ready for. But somebody there had to know how to pull that off, at the moment the artist appointed.

The artist... Have no idea who it is, but he's(she) there somewhere, directing his (her) vision. Because of the vision, and the faith the people around the artist have in him, the work began to bring it about.

Someone designed the stage, for it was a vision to itself, someone had to place and operate all the cameras, someone had to make sure the audio was ready, each mic set up, all fed into a central control panel. Just how many people you figure are involved, and have to cooperate.

Someone had to write all the software to control the backgrounds on the stage and all the various flashing lights, no to mention the lasers, think of all the wiring, all the wi-fi signals that have to be kept straight...

How do you get that many girls together, in one place to preform as one. From looking at them, I believe they are high school age. There appears to be five separate teams. A rainbow, I believe they are the core, then the light blue, a dark blue, a red and a violet.

Somebody, took the artist's vision and put clothes on those girls. Look at those outfits, they are marvelous. You can tell they are well made, and if you look closely, no two are alike, yet overall, they have a uniform look. I promise you, that is not easy to do. There are about twelve girls in each team, think about that. Those clothes had to be cut from whole cloth and sewn together to fit each girl. Give a thought to how many people had to be involved, and cooperating to put clothes on those girls.

Somebody had to write the music, and the lyrics, and the harmony, and somebody (ies) had to perform it. Make it real. Some where there is a band. Wonder how many people involved there...? Actually, the music is quite good.

Somebody had to come up with the choreograph, and teach it to how many girls...? And if you notice, as it goes on, each girl has her own choreograph, just like the members of the band, each one has his own sheet of music, giving you, once again, the artist vision.

Now, we got these girls on stage, preforming, and we have all these cameras running..... Now somebody had to sit down, maybe working from a story board, and go through all that data and edit together the video you just watched.

Anybody notice the audience...? The place was packed, and it was packed because every one involved did what they where suppose to do to fulfill the artist's vision. They cooperated....

Now I believe (not going to swear to it), but I believe AKB48 is a school. Now just think, if we as a nation, were to get behind Donald Trump, our New President, and his vision, and cooperate with one another in an honest and earnest way, well... just imagine.

Observation #423 Male and Female

 

Everyone is really overthinking male and female. Ain't neither of you happy, male or female. And you're not going to be happy as long as you're bucking the truth. You can't go against what it true, and be happy, you just can't, man has spent his entire history proving that. So pay attention, if you want to be happy (an overrated word, the word is content), you have to work within the parameters of truth. You can not expect me to accept, nor tolerate something which isn't true.

Now take a moment, and listen to what we are speaking of. ..... Male and Female....(say it out loud). Male and Female. Has a nice ring to it. Don't you think...? Kind of poetic. . God created them Male and Female....... That statement alone... Think about that.....???? Male and Female..... Seems to me that infers, or perhaps even implies.... That one is not complete without the other. ...and the two shall be as one flesh... Hummm...... isn't this what we find in nature.... Isn't this the truth...? One is not complete without the other. Well duhhh.....

Quit over thinking it...... Screw your feelings...! Feelings lie..! Screw what other people think...!! People lie...!!! You know the truth. Quit trying to be something you're not. ...Think about this.... If one is not complete without the other.....(?????) Than you are different.... Hummm...... Seems your functions would be different... Hummm.... Quit expecting otherwise. You are male and female, you are different. To be jealous of one another is folly ( to lie to one's self and believe it).... God provided to each their own, in a wide variety. There are butch women and frail men, get over it, you are who God made you. Quit believing all the lies, quit judging each other and just look at each other.... God made you pleasing to one another... in different ways..... Explore what God as done..... and quit over thinking it. Good grief people this is basic, the foundation. Without this, you have nothing. Is there even a mating dance anymore..? Every generation had a mating dance, or two, or three. Earliest one I know of is the Minuet... Yeah, I'm a little old.... but I've picked up a few things along the way. ....and one of them is.....'and God created them Male and Female.' ....and it's a beautiful thing, and that's just the way it is.

Observation #419

 

You know, one makes observations as one goes through life, you can't help but gather information as you go along. I want to talk about one of those things.....

There is a granite monument at 23^rd and Boulevard in Galveston, sitting right atop the seawall. I grew up with it, it was there before I was around.... I am told it was put there in 1923, so this year it will be 100 years old, that is to say, it was cut into shape a hundred years ago. Now they will tell you that granite is millions of years old, maybe billions.... Granite is number seven on the hardness scale, granite pretty tough stuff.

When I was a kid, we (the family) went on an Indian hunt... We were looking for one particular dead Indian., as a result we went though a lot of cemeteries, looked at a lot of tombstones. There is one cemetery behind the Mobile, Alabama Library that goes back to the first French settlement in the mid 1700's. Some of those tombstones were granite..... Remember I said Mobile, Alabama. It's on the bay, on the gulf, it's mud, there ain't no granite. Somebody had to go find a granite outcropping, and quarry it, and haul it to Mobile, for a tombstone, in the 1700's, (just a side note I found interesting). Let's just say I've seen lots and lots of tombstones, of all different ages....

The granite monument there in Galveston has worn down to the point, in a hundred years, they had to renew it so it would remain readable. The ones behind the library in mobile, you can't read at all, you can make out writing, but you can't read it. They are only three-hundred years old... In three hundred years, that granite has worn down to the point you can't read the inscription. Make that six-hundred years..? A million years...? A hundred million years...? Really..? Seems to me that tombstone would be gone. Dust in the wind. Yet you look at the mountains, you see jagged edges, you see sharp ridges, you see steady landslides.... What you don't see is anything that looks like millions of years. Other than the plant growth (another topic), most of it looks rather fresh.

If science is going to lie to us, and tell us fairy-tales so they look smart, you would think they would be smart enough to tell a story that looks like what we see.

As an Over-the-Road Driver, I have seen this country from sea to sea, corner to corner. None of it looks millions of years old, in fact in looks like it was laid out with beauty in mind. If one knows anything of beauty, it is awe inspiring. It is almost as if it was laid out by hand. An ongoing painting, in motion with day and night. A creation that creates. In many places signs of the great flood are obvious and they are everywhere, once you notice them. There are great oddities, like the Delaware Water Gap, something that really isn't possible, yet there it is, and you can drive through it, truly a signature of the artist.

I remember the first time I saw the Grand Canyon, I knew instantly, this is a big ole wash out. This happened very quickly and involved a lot of water. A lot of water...!!! Yet, there is room for two huge lakes above it, I've driven through them, indeed they look like lake bottoms, No millions of years there, just a real big ole wash out, and two empty lakes. It's obvious.

So don't tell me millions of years, I wasn't born yesterday, and by the light of Christ, I can see. Anyway, that's my rant, I'm just so sick of science lying and avoiding the truth. Teaching their lies to the kids, and testing them on it. It's crap, it's all crap.

PS – I'm not really in a bad mood, just a rant.

My take on Election 2024

 

Okay, now that some of the dust has settled. I have a few observations and a question are two.

I am retired, and I watched this election, I watched it on NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, News Max, Epoch Times, Shy News, The Daily Wire, ect...ect...ect...

Now I believe in Language, and it can take many forms, linguistics, math, visual art, music. Now two of these languages are very exacting, linguistics and math. Numbers & math symbols mean things so that an exact idea can be communicated. Words mean things, just like numbers, words add up to communicate an exact idea. Now if a word is misused, just like a number, it conveys a lie. An ole saying, watch your p's and q's.

Okay, with that said – How is it Harris got 69 million votes..? Seems to me, there was an awful lot of voter fraud going on, which needs to be uncovered now, and exposed to the light. “Or..!!"
There are 69 million stupid people in this country. I find that hard to comprehend. Now I know we have our stupid people and I know many are high profile. Too many are news readers, who claim to be journalist, I don't know who's writing the news. Many are rich celebrities from the entertainment industries, but all you have to do is listen to them and know they're stupid. Then there is the nosy groups chasing false gods, pretty obvious they're stupid. But 69 million..? Really..? If this is true, we have a serious problem on our hands. Stupidity multiplies and wrecks havoc. We need to take a hard look at our education system, maybe close it down and start over. We need to question our so-called experts who are no more than high paid lairs. We need to, at a fundamental level, return to what is true, for only on truth can one build.

An essay by Bill Brugman

 

Christianity is built upon a mountain of solid rock. Christian philosophers, historians, and scientists are the clearest thinkers I have ever encountered.

C.S. Lewis is one of them. He was a WW l infantry vet who fought in the trenches as an atheist. He was a medieval history and literature scholar, a philosopher and a professor at Cambridge. He was a prolific author. He became a Christian because he couldn’t avoid the truth, according to him. He broadcast messages over the radio to Londoners during the blitz that were edited and became one of his most famous books, Mere Christianity. He also wrote Miracles, The Problem of Pain, The Weight of Glory and the Screwtape Letters. He wrote the Chronicles of Narnia for children. I have never found a reasoned retort to his stance on Jesus Christ. I have seen angry, cynical posts on the internet but I would compare them to throwing sand against a granite boulder.

C.S. Lewis affected my life. He made a statement that I have never forgot and which I always remember when trying to understand the world today. He said: “I believe in Christianity like I believe in the sun, not only because I can see it but by its light I can see everything else.”

On that note here is what that light exposes about liberalism. They refuse to confront evil and actually deny its existence. They wind up condonng and promoting it. Evil is the scourge of human civilization and because evil will flourish under a liberal system of anything, liberals are a danger to all of us.

Their views on religion can be summed up with one statement. Liberals are diametrically opposed to traditional Christianity, the religion of C.S. Lewis, the belief that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

This is the Christianity that includes the doctrine of the goodness of God corrupted by the evil influence of Satan, a spiritual being of great power, who will be judged and punished at the resurrection when all humans living and dead will be judged for their deeds and will receive just rewards. The doctrine of evil as a real power in the universe is the doctrine liberals cannot stomach. Many claim to be Christians but if you dig a little deeper you will discover universalism, Christ as a wise and good man, etc. etc. Liberals hate the concept of evil because they hate the concept of judgment.

They despise these concepts because by accepting them they are placing themselves in the position of being accountable to a moral code above and beyond them. Liberals want to establish the codes of conduct of themselves and others. This desire permeates their views on everything that matters in this world. Therefore they embrace any religion other than traditional Christianity because all others allow self-righteousness.

Islam is a special problem for liberals. Islam worships Allah, the biblical name for Satan in the Book of Isaiah. Islam is an evil cult spawned by Satan through a tribal, pedophilic, violent, moon worshipping Arab chieftain. The light of Christianity clearly exposes Islam. It is tough to deny evil in the face of beheadings, corporal amputation, suicide bombing, rapes, pedophilia, mass executions and the desire for world domination under Sharia law. But liberals do. It is here that the mental gymnastics really become circus like.

They draw a moral equivalency between Islam and ghetto behavior and blame the evil of Islam on poverty or lack of education or the need for jobs or the climate or a response to corporate imperialism or anything but what it is, evil. And they do this as if they have already convinced us these are the root causes of ghetto behavior, which is another subject altogether.

By denying the evil of Islam they have hit a home run in the evil denying game. The denial of other sorts of evil, like ghetto behavior, the passive paganism of new age religion, the sexual perversion of homosexuality or human sacrifice in the form of abortion become child’s play. If the evil of Islam can be sloughed off, nothing is impossible. Right is wrong. Good is evil. Man is supreme. The State is supreme. The environment is supreme. Animals have the same value as humans. Human babies have no value at all. God is a children’s story. Anything goes. If it feels good it's right. Emotion trumps commitment. Courage is coming out as a pervert, not sacrificing one’s life for another.

Liberalism is a cancer. God damned it in the book of Judges 3000 years ago and I damn it in the light of Christ today. If that makes me a pariah I will die a pariah.
