End O Days

I’ll keep our post brief today since I am in preparation for the rapture at 6PM. I need to do some checking to see if its a serial time zone departure today or there is a specific time zone that will designate the end of the world. Apparently there is supposed to be major earthquakes initiating this event. Well I guess one of my neighbors didn’t buy into this theory since he torched his 8000sq ft house last night that he was building and had run out of money on. Did I say he torched. I meant to say it mysteriously burned to the ground at 1am. The world will most likely NOT end today but we are certainly seeing the frayed edges of a society based on quicksand economics starting to come unraveled along more than just its edges.

Many mom n pop business are closing or just hanging on now clinging to the belief that this is somehow going to get better. Now before you challenge this statement with a “do you have to be Soooo gloomy” I just want to say look around your own circumstances and environments. Do you see anything that looks like we’ve changed our ways? Oil is over $100/bl and we are still seeing families making 40K a year driving gas guzzling SUVs and bitching about the price of gas. Are you KIDDING ME?? We have troops on the ground in multiple Middle Eastern Countries dying for this gas just to keep its price at that level. You are spending TRILLIONS to keep them planted in that sand. Heaven forbid that we brought them and the “private contractors” home to this godforsaken economic moonscape. Then we would have battle hardened, explosives experts by the tens of thousands in country here with a major ax to gring and NO JOBS. Oh wait….they can work for the government hunting down the citizens and disgruntled vets trying to protest the state of the state. I love it. I glossed over the fact that we are presumably “over there” to prevent “them” form being over here. Are you really that stupid. I recently talked to a friend of mine from Texas about this. In fact he brought it up to me and asked me about it. He is an independent minded ex-Republican and his words to me were “Do they think we are that f__kn stupid? We are killin those sons o bitches by the tens of thousands over there. Men women and children. They are going to be trying to pay us back for this slaughter for decades.” How can you argue that logic? Unless you are brain dead….which the majority of Americans are….its obvious. WHAT WOULD YOU DO? Imagine going to town today to buy groceries and there were Iraqi tanks at each of your major intersections. Imagine watching your wife getting searched by a Iraqi soldier before she goes into your local Baptist church. Imagine seeing your teenage daughter and her three girlfriends shot to death when they drove up townand mistakenly ran a red light checkpoint because they couldn’t understand the command to stop and were machine gunned by armor piecing rounds that left their bodies shredded.

Oh well enough of that. Lets get to what is on billboards here and all over OUR news today. The ranting of a senile old evangelical preacher whose claim to fame was he predicted the end of the world in 98 and was wrong. Now he’s at it again because this time he is sure. The mainstream media is all over this. It takes the attention of the peeps away from reality and when his bullshit prophecy fails they will all nod knowingly that they knew it was bullshit and feel reassured that the PTB still have control of their wretched existence.

So once again we can all relax and watch the daily kabuki theater as the puppet stings maintain the minuet dance of obfuscation. The neocons holding their spell over their unholy alliance with the evangelicals and the anti-abortion crowd and the homophobic anti-gay crowd. All dancing around the campfire of the oligarchs that are sitting back laughing their asses off at how easy this game is. No its not the end of the world. That happened a long long time ago.
