Montana UFOs and Extraterrestrials, by Joan Bird
This is a very informative and nicely presented book featuring both Montana and United States UFO history. I reviewed it for my motion picture blog because its contents include the Nicholas Mariana UFO film and its inclusion in the 1956 United Artists release, "U.F.O." For the full review and a look at the back cover, click on the link:

Captain Obama and his Ship of Fools
Illustration: Misc. from the Web. An appropriate alternative to Obamacare ?
It seemed as though
the movie, Groundhog Day returned to
theaters last week when some among the more daring news sources dug out an
old sound bite of Hillary Clinton discussing "Hillarycare," the
ancestor to "Obamacare." And
what did the queen-by-association of Benghazi promise years ago? If you like your doctor, you can keep your
doctor. If you like your insurance
company, you can keep your insurance company.
Deja vu for you
There can be
little doubt that thousands of pages of health care legislation began their
journey decades ago, scripted in a single version for the progressive
Democrat-of-the-moment. Hillary then,
Obama now. Next? Republican progressives?
Initially, major
insurance companies lapped Obamacare up like mother’s milk, planning on
millions of customers and mega-millions of dollars. Not happening at the moment. Sign-ups are successful, however – well, if
signing up for state taxpayer-funded Medicaid can be considered a success.
You young folk
who still cling to the cool, youthful, he's just like me image of Obama
-- while the "Common Core" agenda-driven education system infiltrates
and progressively alters the thinking brain cells of your brothers and sisters,
with more than a little help from financial "contributions" from
Microsoft and etc. -- need to experience a wake-up shock and realize that
you're the poor bastards expected to pay big time for the mess currently known
as Obamacare. But now that this
power-grabbing calamity is breaking apart upon the rocks of common sense,
clearer minds can only hope that the health care system becomes funded instead
by intensive American competition across state lines. The way this country is supposed to
function. Of course, help those who need
help, but let the rest pay reasonable insurance rates and not the monster
prices lurking just over Obama's increasingly troubled horizon.
Somehow predictable,
it seems, to now find Senator John McCain calling for repeal of Obamacare, when he was among the first just a
few weeks ago to condemn with some very unkind words Senator Ted Cruz's plea
and filibuster intended to de-fund this mess.
Six words for you in 2016, Republicans:
Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Rand Paul.
More than likely, however, the GOP will strive to choose another losing
candidate, and uninformed voters with nothing better to do than relieve the
boredom of their lives by diverting their attention to polling places, just to
get out of the house, clueless about anything but familiar names on the ballot,
will continue to return the worst of the worst to Congress.
Meanwhile, House
Democrats in interesting numbers appear to be abandoning the hard-line
Obamacare love boat like -- we'll be kind and say lemmings -- deserting
a sinking ship. Isn't that fascinating,
considering that House votes for this obvious Hindenberg disaster plan
were 100 percent Democrat, period, end of story?
Meningitis at Princeton
U. A rare form, you say, Meningitis-B? May I suggest -- isn't globalization
wonderful? We bring in or, worse,
carelessly allow in more Third World people than ever and wonder why unusual
diseases just pop up out of nowhere. It
should be abundantly clear by now that this government has aided in littering a
once-spectacular nation with immigrants, legal and illegal, who have no
intention of becoming true Americans and giving up the horrible lives from
which they supposedly escaped in other countries. Used to be when you came to America you
wanted to assimilate and become an American.
No more. Just look around at the
cesspool, as community after community begins to look more like the United
Nations gone wild. The "melting
pot" thermostat is set on boil and legal immigrants who truly
love the United States continue to rise up little by little, often anonymously
and sometimes in fear, and warn that our nation is becoming many of the bad and
oppressive things they abandoned and ran from in lands far away. And the border-jumping criminal aliens from
just about any place on the globe?
Common sense dictates that we thank them for disease and illness
previously unknown in the U.S. Did this
particular bacteria travel across borders?
We may or may never know, but its very existence and proliferation is
frightening nonetheless. Assume the
worst as a precaution.
Trouble is, when
you're young you often tend to feel like a superhero, invulnerable to attack
from anything, especially perilous diseases or Obamacare, either of
which can infect some part of your body or your bank account before you even
know it.
So, youse
intellectually deprived or deceived folks doing all that Ivy League learnin' at
Princeton -- remember to stay progressively liberal so's you can anticipate
more of the same, next time. We wish a
good and speedy recovery for the ill, but ya gotta remember that the
importation or utter disregard of invasive Third World politics and hitchhiking
organisms can be dangerous to one's health.
It's a freakin' small world after all -- and you need to fear it with
your very life.
Fantastic
plastic: Whenever NY Senator Charles Schumer runs to
the forefront to ban something, you just know much of the time that he's
spoiling somebody's day across the nation.
This time it's plastic guns, easily produced via those 3-D printers
currently exploding in popularity. For
one thing, plastic guns -- as deadly and frequently illegal as the
"real" device -- are supposed to contain a metal portion so they can
be screened by airport x-ray machines or the like, but apparently those in the
know remove all metal in advance, thus rendering the weapon invisible to
multi-million dollar technology (that is, Pac-Man's digital offspring are foiled again).
What this means
in the United States, like it or not, is that at last everybody down to a
three-year-old can now enjoy every thread of the Second Amendment and possess a
handgun (and more) in full violation of progressive laws across the land. The plastic genie is now fully out of the
lamp, and public servants (that is, people who wish for the public to serve
their whims) such as Schumer are in a tizzy, scribbling out proposed
legislation faster than Chicken Little warning that the sky is
falling.
The plastic
weapons issue is a nightmare, no doubt, but we've really reached the point
where penning legislation to halt technology in its tracks is simply a waste of
time, every bit as wasteful as continuing to keep Congress in Washington --
subject to continuous lobbyist payoffs -- when all representatives could easily
remain in their home states and telecommute, thus saving taxpayers some real
money. But Schumer, obviously unhappy
unless involved in a photo-op or regulating American lives with his progressive
buddies, perseveres like the battery bunny.
Unfortunately for the regulation-minded among us, gun production
instructions have already been downloaded from the Internet in great volume,
and that's no accident. To paraphrase
from the military -- shoot 'em if you got 'em.
Just sitting
here, wondering if I've forgotten anything today. Oh, yeah. . .
Impeach,
impeach, impeach, then prison. Guess
that's it for today. . .

Bits and Pieces for November 2013
Forget about
endless repetitions of, "If you like your. . .blah, blah, blah. . .you can
keep it." Yes, our president
lied his face off, but what's new? Just
imagine his team's work behind the scenes, fundamentally transforming
our rights like diseased rats chewing up electrical wires and infrastructure
behind a wall.
A growing number
of Americans realize the national decay we're infected with until the 2016
elections offer at least a minimal cure.
But don't forget about 2014, because congressional elections demand a
different mantra -- making sure every voter in the country understands the
significance of the fact that each and every vote in favor of
"Obamacare" in the House of (alleged) Representatives was cast by a
Democrat. "Mooooooo,"
the herd was rumored to say in response to allegations that there was nothing
remotely partisan about this travesty, incorporating leftovers from
"Hillary Care" and likely decades of
wish-list medical legislation prepared by progressives and other
communist-lovin' special interest groups just waiting for the chance to pounce.
Meanwhile. .
."self-insured" businesses fight to keep the reasonable
self-alternatives, even as Obama's minions strive to destroy this option,
attacking like flying monkeys in The Wizard of Oz.
Veterans Day
with the president. The very fraud-in-chief whose gang tried to
keep World War II vets away from their memorial in D.C. during the government
shutdown which was perpetrated by himself, helpful Harry and the Senate appeared
as nothing but a giant phony as he spoke and praised vets on Veterans Day. As a Vietnam Era veteran, allow me to
reiterate the obvious and express with no doubts whatsoever that this prez
wouldn't know how to appreciate active duty military personnel or veterans if
the ability to do so was infused into his breakfast cereal, or whatever he eats
in the morning. Meanwhile, while a
growing number of rational heads in the USA consider whether Mr. Obama should
be impeached. . .
Egypt wants to
put Obama on trial as a terrorist.
Our president's brother is already in deep trouble for supporting and
aiding the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, and Egypt blames B.O. himself for
interfering in Egypt via his own support of the Muslim B., resulting in terror
and death due to the Big Man's support of Morsi & thugs incorporated. The efforts of Barack Obama and Hillary
Clinton have done nothing in the Middle East except inflame all sides, so one
might be inclined to tell Egypt, whether in person or in absentia, let the
Obama trials begin. Maybe the Egyptians
can get what we can't get here in our own courts.
Good going, not,
John Kerry. So what was that all about, those
seedy secret negotiations with Iran, pretty much allowing Iran to procure
pretty much whatever nuclear ingredients it desired, giving them the store and
the rest of us nothing of consequence?
No wonder Israel went nuts upon learning the details. Fortunately, France intervened (France? What the. . .?) and Iran bowed out of an
agreement for the moment -- likely because they continue to prop up their nuke
war program and lying their butts off.
I know, I know,
I know, I know
-- but something in me boils when I see U.S. Marines and other members of our
military playing cleanup in the Philippines and other places around the world
when disasters occur. Or to be more
specific -- these fine men and women did not sign up and take an oath to be
international janitors and delivery boys.
Let the damned nearly useless U.N. handle these matters and tell our
global president to remember why our Armed Forces exist. . .or what's left of
them, under this presidential fraud.
Were I on active duty right now, I think I'd be biting my own foot to
maintain control. I wonder how many
military suicides have some, even some small connection, to the White House
pretender's gutting of Armed Forces' abilities, rules, cohesiveness and
man/woman power? Less diplomacy and more expert toughness is
required in today's world, especially with Chinese communists embracing their
military muscle even more.
Thought for the
Day: The Tea Party folks are not the
revolutionaries we need to worry about, and, indeed, they could end up taking
back the conservative components of the constipated and ineffectual Republican
Party. The radical and/or mentally
unstable revolutionaries surrounding our president are the demons which truly comprise
the eye of a very current and nightmarish national hurricane.
Impeachment festival? Efforts are underway in the House to impeach
attorney general Eric Holder over several issues. This isn’t likely to go anywhere when it
reaches the Senate, Inc., but as long as the mood is impeachment, don’t stop
with Holder. There are plenty of fish to
fry in the sea of corruption.
As the usual
gang of power brokers and corrupt politicians forge ahead with
immigration "reform," and I'm thinking that prison terms may be
called for here among those folks, it's not out of the question to expect that
terrorist elements within our borders can hardly wait for the day when
"legal" becomes license to operate more openly and with less
interference from law enforcement.
Why is it? Why is it that physicians and other health
care workers face some troubled times under the Affordable Care Act, yet the
legislative lawyers at various levels who helped draft this mess and put it
into effect get off scot free? Where is
tort reform? Where is the Affordable
Attorney Act?
If
"Obamacare" has taught us anything, it is yet another indication
that powerful forces are hell bent on enslaving our privacy to the nanny
computer. At this point, how do you wake
the kids up and convince them that the wonderment and ease of digital
technology is a friend destined to become their enemy? It's just a matter of time, with big
government's help.
A final word: If the escalating costs of enrollment in
Obamacare -- either to participants or to taxpayers who eventually have to
shoulder state-based Medicaid costs -- aren't enough, just wait until Obama's
"green" regulations on domestic energy production go into effect. Coal plants and any other energy source
deemed un-green by this clueless intellectual maniac are already on notice, and
Obama's efforts can only result in expensive energy price spikes. The president who promised that energy prices
must "necessarily skyrocket" aims to fulfill his prophecy -- or maybe
the word is commandment. The eleventh.

"Twilight Zone" Preferable to Lie-Right Zone
As Washington
runs amuck with spending gone berserk and
undeserving bureaucrats anchored like
potted plants with roots of steel, one wonders, one begs to know how to
convince a sleeping populace to wake up and smell the corruption. It sure isn't happening as long as the
mainstream media keeps folks' ocular function attached to TV screens with eye
candy superglue administered from the progressive left and the progressive
right.
How
authoritarian has the government become?
If you don't know by now, you may never know. If -- the truly -- conservative politicians
and radio talk show hosts can warn us all for years about the Affordable Care
Act's hidden dangers and impending damages to constitutional rights, yet few in
society care enough to educate themselves about the implications to our
society, then some among us deserve what they get. Bon voyage, Obamacare, bon voyage, Titanic.
. .
Gotta admit,
even the twists, turns and quirks in TV's "The Twilight Zone" at
least made sense in some far-out manner.
Now we just get The Lie-Right Zone from those in power, as the
middle class continues a dive destined to leave only the powerful and the not-so
standing.
Meanwhile, this
weekend Senator Charles much-too-long-in-office Schumer of NY was out there
pitching the ghost of Hillary Clinton for president. I say ghost because the Hillary he touts
seems like pure political ectoplasm, with
little relationship to the Hillary we really know. In recent days folks have had to hold their
noses when told about Hillary Clinton's exceptional accomplishments as
Secretary of State, when we all know she and Obama did little in the Middle
East but blunder along and help light the fires of radical Islam for our true
enemies. The tragic albatross of
Benghazi, Libya should perch firmly on her shoulders forever, certainly
promising no ascension to the presidential throne.
Because
Congress, and most assuredly the presidency, are all locked up with special
interest groups and, too often, public frivolity, we logically ask -- who
remains to speak for us, we the people?
Whistle blowers, apparently. Looks
like the NSA (remember just a few years ago when nobody would even admit to its
existence, in the spirit of the "invisible" Area 51?) is far less
popular than Snowden now, thanks to its own policy.
When you think
of a government out of control, remember the name, Audrey Hudson. Read about her ordeal online, but the
pertinent information involves the feds, with other law enforcement assistance,
entering this journalist's home one fine morning and, among other matters,
absconding with her personal notes regarding, it seems, embarrassing (or worse)
details about air marshals and Homeland Security. There were several implied layers to this
incident, but this additional example of big government tracking down members
of the press and keeping tabs on their contacts should chill every American to
the bone. Who will save us? Technology?
Hell, no, digital technology imprisons the human spirit more each day,
not because it's inherently evil, but because big government is inherently
evil and has virtually endless means to harness technology and use it against
the rest of us.
So here we are,
and how did we get here? If one is a
journalist now, I guess you have to hide your notes at some nameless and
unknown friend's house, as if you were hiding Anne Frank herself from humans
gone wild. If one has firearms, seems
you're better off securing undocumented guns and ammo someplace where
"they" will never think to look -- but, of course, technology's
wonders allow few such locations or options.
What to do? Shake your fist to
the sky and blame The Cloud?
Clouds of the digital realm always maintain the electronic right to
bring storms.
Hey China, nice
map
of places, lots of places, in the United States where those commie comedians
promise they can take us out with
nuclear bombs. But who cares about that
when primarily leftist legislators across the country are focused upon crushing
the Second Amendment whilst King Obama himself continues to purge the U.S.
military of generals and the like who apparently just don't measure up -- make
that down -- to his political views.
But, to quote
Hillary's all-purpose excuse, what difference does it make? Obama.
And Marx? Marxist? What's that?
You mean Groucho, the high school and college kids ask? Yeah, that's right, Groucho Marx. Funny man, wasn't he? And remember Zeppo and Harpo? I wonder if Common Core teaches kids
that these were the Marxists? Wouldn't
expect anything less.
Horror at LAX. Another day, another shooting, another
death. Another wish on my part that the
airport terminal had been crawling with enough personal and legal civilian
firepower to mow this freak down before
he could get to the trigger. Instead,
we're likely due for more blather from the media and leftist governors who hate
guns and therefore hate you for having guns, period.
About that
Affordable Care Act
-- Admit it, now some of your unaware friends "get" Ted Cruz's little
filibuster over Obamacare's terrors, don't they? While damned nearly every national TV
"news" outlet worked hard to dismiss Cruz by showing only that little
blurb of him reading from Green Eggs and Ham, they ignored hours and
hours of his brilliant observations and commentary on a host of issues, just to
keep us off track. Strange how some in
the media wear a different face now -- undoubtedly a temporary condition, as
they and the Obama gang strive to reconnect and reconstruct a brave
Obama-friendly face for News at Eleven.
Scientists suggest that our Milky Way alone contains
8.8 billion suns, many with planetary systems similar to ours. Source of UFOs? Maybe.
And more than likely class action lawyers, annoying neighbors, infinite
political campaigns and employed creatures who neglect to wash their tentacles
after using toilet facilities at galactic restaurants. And dog poop, everywhere, dog poop.
The Justin
Bieber latest: Sorry, I just can't let Bieber news alone,
mainly because I keep counting down the hours until the world tires of his
flash-in-the-pan existence in the world of celebrity and moves on to another
tingling sensation of the moment. This
time around, Bieber was observed and photographed leaving a foreign brothel
with, allegedly, a couple of the establishment's ladies. Let's see. . .hmm. . .that would make three
of a kind, wouldn't it? Anyway, if Canada had installed its own brothels throughout the country, perhaps JB would have remained in Canada and never sung a note or endangered lives by speeding in the USA as he instead "toured" his own nation. Five years from now, his music will be looked upon as something equally laughable with Obama's If you like (fill in the blank) you can keep it.
