Sky High

The secret art of inviting happiness


The secret art of inviting happiness,

The miraculous medicine for all diseases.

At least for today:

Do not be angry,

Do not worry,

Be grateful,

Work with diligence,

Be kind to people.

a radical revolution of the mind

The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence


Victor Marchetti used the expression "cult of intelligence" to denounce what he viewed as a counterproductive mindset and culture of secrecy, elitism, amorality and lawlessness within and surrounding the Central Intelligence Agency in the service of American imperialism: There exists in our nation today a powerful and dangerous secret cult -- the cult of intelligence. Its holy men are the clandestine professionals of the Central Intelligence Agency. Its patrons and protectors are the highest officials of the federal government. Its membership, extending far beyond governmental circles, reaches into the power centers of industry, commerce, finance, and labor. Its friends are many in the areas of important public influence -- the academic world and the communications media. The cult of intelligence is a secret fraternity of the American political aristocracy. The purpose of the cult is to further the foreign policies of the U.S. government by covert and usually illegal means, while at the same time containing the spread of its avowed enemy, communism. Traditionally, the cult's hope has been to foster a world order in which America would reign supreme, the unchallenged international leader. Today, however, that dream stands tarnished by time and frequent failures. Thus, the cult's objectives are now less grandiose, but no less disturbing. It seeks largely to advance America's self-appointed role as the dominant arbiter of social, economic, and political change in the awakening regions of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. And its worldwide war against communism has to some extent been reduced to a covert struggle to maintain a self-serving stability in the Third World, using whatever clandestine methods are available.

two possibilities exist:



"Two possibilities exist: 


either we are alone in the Universe 


or we are not. 


Both are equally terrifying."



The Flying Saucer Mystery 1952


forgive



Forgive, 


forgive, 


forgive...


so that you are forgiven.

All our systems are in crisis

All our systems are in crisis: Competition and greed have led to ever more conflict and chaos.

The only way out is through cooperation and sharing: Justice and freedom for all.

Adamski: Knowledge is useless unless it is combined with action.

World teacher: Nothing happens by itself. Man must act and implement his will.

Grading the Presidents that made this world

Truman - A+

At the time dropping two A bombs was probably the best way to avoid bloodshed when ending the war with Japan. Just as dropping one on Kandahar would have been the least bloody way to end terrorism following 911.

He founded the UN, launched the Marshall plan that succeeded brilliantly in Europe. Fought the Korean war that created the wonder that is South Korea today. He threw the weight of the US behind the creation of Isreal although I often thinkaboot better alternatives. He allowed America to absorb a lot of Nazi brains, and I am afraid this was a double edged sword.

He is the gold standard of post WW2 presidents

Dwight Eisenhower -  B

After the Soviet Union launched the world's first artificial satellite in 1957, Eisenhower authorized the establishment of NASA, which led to the space race. During the Suez Crisis of 1956, Eisenhower condemned the Israeli, British and French invasion of Egypt, and forced them to withdraw. He also condemned the Soviet invasion during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 but took no action. In 1958, Eisenhower sent 15,000 U.S. troops to Lebanon to prevent the pro-Western government from falling to a Nasser-inspired revolution. Near the end of his term, his efforts to set up a summit meeting with the Soviets collapsed because of theU-2 incident.[5] In his January 17, 1961 farewell address to the nation, Eisenhower expressed his concerns about the dangers of massive military spending, particularly deficit spending and government contracts to private military manufacturers, and coined the term "military–industrial complex".[6]


On the domestic front, he covertly opposed Joseph McCarthy and contributed to the end of McCarthyism by openly invoking the modern expanded version ofexecutive privilege. He otherwise left most political activity to his Vice President, Richard Nixon. Eisenhower was a moderate conservative who continued New Dealagencies and expanded Social Security. He also launched the Interstate Highway System, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the establishment of strong science education via the National Defense Education Act, and encouraged peaceful use of nuclear power via amendments to the Atomic Energy Act.[7]


Eisenhower's two terms saw considerable economic prosperity except for a sharp recession in 1958–59. Voted Gallup's most admired man twelve times, he achieved widespread popular esteem both in and out of office.[8] Since the late 20th century, consensus among Western scholars has consistently held Eisenhower as one of the greatest U.S. Presidents.


All good stuff, but he did allow the military industrial complex to take over the nation. (see above let Nixon handle the political stuff)
John Kennedy - C (incomplete)

Kennedy was more of an idea than actual acomplishments. He was for civil rights, he was for space travel, he was likely against the horrific Vietnam war. The Cuban missle crises could easily have been the cataylst for thermonuclear war. This was the highpoint of his presidency, but it was his blunders in dealing with the Soviet Union that perticipated the crisis in the first place. Its also likely he overthrough the monarchy in Iraq starting a chain of events that we now see has spun out of control.
Lyndon Johnson - F

He legislated civil rights but in many respects it was a chimera. His great society has been terribly executed. The legacy of Vietnam alone destroys his place in history. Many believe he was direclty envolved in the assasination of JFK. and part of the deal is that he would not run for a 3rd term.
Richard Nixon - B+

We now know that all politians play hard, Nixon was just caught red handed, or perhaps more likely set up beautifully. Was Bob Woodward ever a CIA operative? Why was Nixon manuvered to be in Dallas on the day Kennedy was assasinated?

He ended the Vietnam war. He created the EPA which while not perfect has been the best friend the earths enviorment has had since the day humans discovered fire. China can thank him for sparking their current economic miricle.

Perhaps his worst initative was defunding and realigning NASA.



Gerald Ford - F-

Pardoning Nixion was unpardonable. He opened the door to governing without consequences. On the plus side he made Chey Chase a national institution, and cemented Saturday Night Live as a cultral totem.

Jimmy Carter B-
President Carters reach[

WAS EXECUTED IN A WAY THAT

just barely exceeded his grasp. Had he not been sabatoged by the Iranian hostage crisis chances are he would have been an A+ president and the world a much better place today. Does anyone believe the second Ronald Reagan was sworn in the hostages were released was because they were intimidated. Ask why Iran Contra was almost suicidal?


His greatest accomplishment was a lasting peace treaty between Egypt and Isreal. Its likely that with a second term he could have made that universal.
Me and Jimmy flying to Osaka together
Ronald Reagan F- - -  - - -- - - - -

The black swan with the perpeturally natural black hair. Ronald Reagan appealed like Donald Trump to Americians most purient interests. His list of malfeance is endless and enduring. I will just pick three. 1) spend now pay later politics 2) American exceptionalism is real 3) God approves so I cant be wrong.
Everthing bad in the world today has a direct connection to the Reagan Presidency. including Trump being taken serioulsly. He lowered the bar so far that anyone who could crawl out from under a rock could be considered a legitimate canditate.

George Hubret Walker Bush F


Many people think GHWB was the first crossover president. The leader of the shadow goverment also the leader of the free people. He flamed out worse than the F35 when it hits a rainstorm. This Bush thought he was an expert at shaping the battlefield. Sure he probably made hundreds of billions on the side. But he left the middle east a mess and without his deft hand, it was left to his idot son to try and get his drivers lic in the sand.

Bill Clinton C+

Made things work with his charm and seamen.

W - F--------------

Practically destoryed the world.

Bararck Obama B+

Inherited the worst mess of any President including FDR. The economy stil a work in progress by Goldman Sachs contractors. Approved the overthrough of the elected goverment of Ukraine to server the need for an enemy of the industrial industrial complex. Made black lives matter a legitmate voice. Bullied through Obama care which will fail spectaculary but pave the way for the obvious single payer choice. The TPP his betrayal.

Gen Five Supersoldiers Revealed


The lastest crop of super soldiers have left the test tube and are ready for battle. Their bodies geneticly modified to withstand high impact. Their mucsles twitch like simians giving them superhuman strength and endurance. I will write a great novel about the first one of them to fall in love with a standard human. Maybe I will call it beauty and the super beast. The basic plot is one of them escapes the between missions holding facility and becomes a star hockey player. No chance of CTE so the insurance cap makes him highly sought after.A super soldiers natural truculance and willingness to play the system makes him a  management favorite. His name is Jones Spaceman.

the female eunuch


"The Female Eunuch"


Germaine Greer argues that scaring women is

"big business and hugely profitable."

It is fear, she wrote, that "makes women comply

with schemes and policies that work against their interest".

Sexism is indeed creating a second class citizen,

and fear works equally well on men,

don't be a slave to either.

Arch Duke Ferdinand's last stand

Arch Duke Ferdinand's last stand

was in star crossed

with evil

Sarajevo

He died real bad

his skin was fried

but we call

an

anarchist

a person who believes in or tries to bring about anarchy

synonyms:

nihilist, insurgent, agitator, subversive, terrorist,revolutionary, revolutionist, insurrectionist

Now that covers a lot of intellectual
geography
and a unexamined ocean
in the public eye of
political topography
cause how can the death
of one dilettante
go global
go viral literally
if gas warfare
is a virus
in one of civilisations
most catastrophic events
putting bricks into
place that never
should have been laid
and now a century latter
we are doing
home world
renovation
Consider Pheboes
before facebook
was even imagined
let alone invented
social media
it was a bitch in
the old days

Good old WW1
perhaps the most stupid
war in history
was won
and the victors took
all the spoils
so greedy that
they left a Mahler
from Austria
without a tip
and he was outraged
and would not
let this insult
slip
and the German people
felt the same way
they lost and Kaiser
and their currency
and the City of London
said Fuck off and Die
Krauts
but we are long on
the NAZI

The world returned
to the same old
fiefdoms and empires
and everyone was kind
of content
until some one pulled the
plug on the roulette table
and out spilled Rosmary
reality and the Jack of Hearts

The great depression was
the first phycotic
episode of modern economics
the time where the invisible hand
penetrated the chest cavity
and grapped the heart
because the brain
was worthless

High on the speed of currency the world
crashed because of false assumptions
and ballooning cash
wealth creation
its a hard to establish
fact

And the people became ugly
and depressed
and inchorent
because the most
reliable book of the day
was the bible
and its sole economic message
was something about
throwing out the moneychangers
which post 1929
became the Jews
Ironically when the shit hit the fan
the man that warned everyone
a Jew
was held accountable

I tend to drift off subject
in an interview
like I see by the light in your
eyes and I would never
really want to work here
anyway
because your soulless
and chasing the nickel
and not even Jewish

I am not a big fan of the current
state of Isreal
I see Netanyahoo
not as evil
just another clown
looking to fill his
pockets with scheckls
will every one else
is concentrating on all
the Mcgiver missiles
falling down
on the iron dome

I diverge for a reason
to remind you all
about the boss
all men want to be rich
the rich man want to be king
the king is never satisfied
until they rule everything
well the Jews understood
this from the time they realised
unrefrigerated pork is
going to kill you

So the Jews
were the first kickstarters
of entrepreneurs they knew and
trusted
and over the centuries
a persecuted people
made gold out of strife
all because of the false
narrative that is was
the Jews who gave
the false Jesus the
knife

We can never deal
with our myths effectively
if we ignore the truth
Jesus no more walked
on water than I
he made no more
water into wine
than the Napa Valley
where drought
and climate change
may make them dry
his multiplication of
fishes I cant explain
could of been some
kind of fish run
and as for the healing
it could be true
this is the one element
of the Jesus story
thats rings like a bell
because we are biological
instruments
and we now use
that to cure cancer well

Readers of history know
well saving the Jews
was not even a plan
they just happened upon
the Holocaust
and were horrified
at what young Winstons
concentration camps
had Darwined too.
and again I got to go
so far into the future \
while I examine the past
6 million Jews died
or maybe more
or maybe less
but its a significant \
number nevertheless
and in a Star Wars
movie
the screen would
have felf the effect
I witness with pain
the terrorism
that exists today
accross a broad
plain
and no dusty
retreat in invundreable
to its pain
Germany today
is the worlds leader
in Evey metric expat
ability to end the earth
and for that I feel glad
but but but but
they are failing to reproduce
genuk gut deutch to keep
the dream alive
and would they not love
six million faithful
loving intelligent
culture creating
scientist braving
citizens back today

Okay time to move on
to world war 2
which was totally
orchestrated by the USA
it was all about taking
England down
and making the colonies
number one
and it was the
City of London
who was the guilty one

No doubt Hirohito and Hitler
needed a trip to the woodshed
and likely neither one
would every listen to reason
but intelligent people
could have found
a better way to pave
the superhighway
to the future
but I also know
this wiill never happen
unless someone in
the sky paves
the roads in
permanent granite

After WW2 which was
bigger than Kardashian
devastation
he world was in
PDST
and the mycologist
took over
we are a medical patient
in the Hospital from hell

The gunfighter position
used to be a good bet
to emerge from an unexpected
struggle
with gunmen
who bet they
could take you
cause you
had some interest
in which they did
not believe
or maybe just
a lucrative reward
turned a farm boy
who could not read
into a skilled assassination
without a reason to
breathe
nevertheless
lone gunman
today
take the express

Today for me it
July 21 two thousand and sixteen
and I am glad to be alive
cause when I wake up
in the morning
the first thing I want
to know
is the grass
on the right side

So are we totally fucked
or going to survieve
this is a question
no person has ever
had to consider
and now its our
Id

We gotta stop using so many
resources thats for sure
and population control
is neccesary
you can drive a car
you can buy a gun
and you need a license
but to have a kid
you have to ask
no one

We need a lic
and a procedue to have
kids
the best genes
are just past puberty
lets harvest them
and store them well
then screen out all the defects
and give the parents
who are ready
a perfect baby ball

The future can not support
passangers and while this may
sound really facist its the truth
the planet we know that supports
life is dieing
does not matter if humans
did it at all
the fact is we need
to deal
and in the wilderness
the sick will not
be caried at all
and thats not of course
the world I wish for
at all
but when there is not
enough food
water or oxygen
what are you going to do
and I dont want to be
there life of Pi
so please listen
when I say to you
you gotta do something
today
or this world is
yesterday


Footnotes always appropriate

so the killer was just a lone wolf

no need to worry

do we not see this over

and over and

if we were in a hurry

to got to a good place

we would bury all the

lone gunman corspes

Whats going on?


Incirlik is the vital US air base in Turkey. Its armed with Nuclear weapons.
Turkey seems to have it in a lockdown. Why is this not front page news?
Oh yeah its important and may cause cognitive dissonance.

Augmented reality may replace the spoken word like writing


Augmented reality has the world playing
pokeman go
but walking
so asleep
into traffic
that remains fatal
in the real world

Still its a wonderful thing
for a globe to shake
mostly like
a united earthquake
and likely realize
we are all samuri
and our swords
work better
sheathed
or pixalized
at least

Imagine if you will
in the age of pen
and quill
conductucting great
wars on unknown geography
when the chain of command
worked on a six to seven month
timeline at best
still the English conquered the world
will bright red vests
that made perfect targets
and this was the message
you can shoot us
but you will never see
us bleed

Today everyone
knows more about
war than Napoleon
if they want to
and by osmosis
if they dont
cause in every hood
is  a drone
and they are not there
for you

I am not part of the Reddit community
not really a social particpant at all
a old fashion ionclast
who seeks approval
from few if
any at all

Seeking approval and acceptance 
are the deadly sins of the digital age
be brave, be brave. littte piglet
do not be afraid to 
be yourself 
and your true actual
friends will do the same

False empowerment is the herion
of the digital age
Its the NBA of college 
scholarships 
where no one who graduates
can read or write
just more bits and bytes
for the server
to assimilate
in a way
that leaves humans
in a worse way

I want to shout in frustration
at the future I see unfold
like Ray Bradury
who wrote not to predict 
the future but to prevent
it from happening
and he has proven
to be way way
unsuccessful

I studed history and was a history stud
and I see nothing but anarchy
in the flood of progress
that is owerwhelming us
if we could just hit pause
and sort things out
we could be free
of the man

Lets break it all down
for the ignorant
with finite anyalyis
just because a number is to 
big for you to understand
does not mean it does not 
exist or that there is a man
or women who somewhat 
understands it
because you could go to school
for a million years
and never have
their comprehesion
and in that you must 
believe or
the planet
will just fucking leave
and what we call civilization
will sieze to exist

Science math are not black white or purple
they just are
Gods words if he is not spagetti
but even on the best plate
you can not ignore the fractuls of realization
that the world has a blueprint a
a foundation of logic
we have just barely touched
and those who deny
are working on 
short cirutigy 
scientific overlord

Just like the doctor 
is not the best businessman
despite their wealth
the scientest
is not the best messanger
to distribute the wealth
but that is the answer to everything
because people who need nothing
are capable of doing amazing
something
and real people do not work for 
money
we work to have a good
time at the local fair
