Why Are the Freemasons Collecting Our Children's DNA? _ from the Huffington Post

 
 
 
You know them as MasoniChip, or perhaps you've been led to believe it was a state and provincial endeavor intended to protect your little ones. They set up fairs, forge partnerships with law enforcement and even strive to distribute their services through North American public school systems. In Massachusetts this Freemason program was promoted by CBS News from the steps of the official State House and included their police dog, coincidentally named Mason. Reporters only failed to mention the private nod to those promoting him or that government had little to do with it.

     More than just creepy cult folklore ... HuffPo is on it and they're an actual credible source of NEWS

Monkey Socialization: UC Berkeley Breakthrough

Monkey Socialization
At the University of Berkeley, they took a dozen or so of monkey families and had them live in one environment (neighborhood if you will).
One monkey, called Jeem, that had grown-up with Alpha parents that were the obvious leaders of another monkey community was relied upon to teach these other monkeys how to wash their fruit in natural running water before eating. Sure enough, all the monkeys soon followed with the fruit that was given to them all. It became the norm (the standard).
A forward thinking professor at Berkeley then implemented his partly trendy idea that centered around teaching monkeys to smoke – as it is cute and popular with the public and would help in raising grant money from the old money planted in tobacco interests. This experiment would also focus around social behavior.
All the monkeys were given cheap packs of cigarettes to smoke. It was normal for them to sit out in front of their sleeping habitats and smoke these cigarettes and chatter.  Jeem was given a pouch of tobacco that was an organically grown and was taught to roll his own cigarettes independent of the standard monkey order and outside of its environment. He was then let back into the environment each day with two to three of these hand rolled organic tobacco cigarettes.
The chatter became outrageous and almost crazed from the other monkeys as Jeem continued to smoke his hand rolled organic tobacco cigarettes and the others continued to only know about their cheap pack of cigarettes. The other monkeys became obsessed with Jeem. And each time Jeem lit up his hand rolled organic tobacco cigarettes they chattered and chattered – hoping squeaky wheel would get the grease and something would alter Jeem's behavior – for what they didn't even know.
Later Jeem was given the same organic tobacco but in a pack. And the others learned to shut up and the whole thing just went away --- Except the fact that it was all recorded and documented and made for an interesting grant on monkey socialization and behavior. The president even read about it.

The Doors - GLORIA - (dirty version); Kim Kardashian Vs. Jim Morrison: (People Who Think They're Better) ...



The only thing I do NOT LIKE about the DOORS is that it seems like they perceive themselves as like they are better than EVERYBODY ELSE = like they are intellectually built superior to even the most elite academics (and elite gossipers who can wreck a person's image as equally as the DOJ). But if we were to consult a Harvard School of Buisness professor about the long term global impact on pop consciousness and bottom line long term $helf life of Kim Kardashian (the most famous and dangerous person in America right now) and Jim Morrison (dead @ 27 in 1971) = the better bet is probably with

He stood in the kitchen prepping for an omelet featuring hot peppers (given to him by the singer songwriter from Trout Swimming or Blind Man's Holiday -one of those upper state NY bands- now turned organic table farmer) from  the local farmer's market; garden tomatoes; left over grilled pork loin. As he did the prep work - pulling out the skillet and extra virgin Italian olive oil from Jimmy Sunseri's he started the pee pee dance. "Oh no I really gotta go." He raced down the cellar stairs in the 1920's style bathroom with the toilet against the wall he relieved himself and bars of Ode to Joy sounded in his head. Then, about five minutes later while continuing to cook his breakfast = "it" really started to burn.
 
As a simple twist of fate though, eating the hot peppers in the omelete did not seem hot at all.

With the right Hollywood savvy, cool, experienced Exec we're working on a documentary film that's about more than half way complete that will tell a nice solid story to help explain How this Happened (and some other good stuff things w/ the Rusted Root of Pittsburgh) --- And, well, can happen for you too. .. (We even have Julia Allison of Bravo's "big hit" new show Miss Advised and a bunch of pop culture relevant other people on film for you = And, we have diagrams, pie charts and statistic graphs = all kinds of good stuff to help to a nice little nonchalant story to make you happy). It's gonna be real professional but hopefully not too professional and serious that it's no fun and too Linked-In.

A Secret Service Agent Guy gave Parker Bean so much attention in front of the back of White House right before we placed Parker in his stroller & took this "action" photo of him trying to get the Layfette Park squirrels.

Close Up The Honky-Tonks (Avalon Ballroom 69)



It was after his show in a Pittsburgh spot that Jeff Tweedy and I over Diet Coca-Cola cans that he was preaching to me about Gram Parsons and The Flying Burrito Bros. Now, I had just seen Jeff Tweedy w/ his back-against-the-wall at a place called Metropol which Ween said "next time in Pittsburgh why don't you just book us in a urinal in the bus station because the sound would be better and we wouldn't have to stop after midnight for some "fill in the blank" dance night" = And, well, Jeff took LEMONS and TURNED THEM INTO LEMONADE w/ GRAY GOOSE vodka. Best rock'n set ever ... My wife and I still recall this doll of a female local reporter / journalist there for dance-night and was like "who is this Wilco?!". .. Yeah, the same Jeff Tweedy / Wilco / reporter / journalist that told me Gram Parsons Avalon Ballroom 69 was a littlle like the "Neon cosmic Americana of that Coca-Cola machine" we were standing nearby = "never going out acorss life-on-the-road = or well, everyday, on earth -  for that matter." ... So, just until last spring when "Bear" from the Grateful Dead Road-Crew finally let us al take a listen to the double CD = two nites of Gram and The Flying Burrito Bros opening for The Grateful Dead San Francisco 1969 did I listen. And, not to sound too much like an archival GEEK but, "wow."

President Obama and Bob Dylan: Medal of FREEDOM

President Obama placing one of the USA's highest honors upon Bob Dylan = The Medal of FREEDOM.


And here is Dylan's "You Ain't Going Nowhere" = a rendition by The Byrds (Columbia Records) on Playboy After Dark from 1968.
(Columbia felt this Dylan tune and others like Nothing Was Delivered that the Byrds also did on SweetHeart of the Rodeo may have better chances to reach top of billboard charts if covered by radio friendly Byrds as Dylan's voice was weird. Keith Richards best friend Gram Parsons of the Everly Bros. Is the lead singer and influence for the Byrds at this time).

Yeah, I wonder how many times both Obama & Dylan were told "You Ain'T Going Nowhere" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q21BF38W3Gs&feature=related

Ashes And Fire (Live Acoustic Version)



Just some real nice simple words and music here. .. (and on the whole album, really - And, well, RYan's career really = thanks to Frank Spadafora for turning me on to him as he also did w/ Ween and a lot of great music).

As he stared past the fire
The hunger to leave, well it gnawed
His poor heart alive
Her skin smelled like black cherry blossom perfume
The sailboats they all sailed by
And a river, she cried

And the wind was suddenly sweeter
Than Rossevelt pie
The windows broke out
And the cigarette smoke was drifting by
The bums on the bowery
The were swallowed in lights
As cars rumbled by in the night
Screaming 'run for you life'

With cool and silvery eyes
And a heart that was fit for design
Drowned in a river of tears
A river she cried
Left her with a heart
Made of ashes and fire

One day there was a silence
It was through the town
There was no reason to speak
So no one made a sound
Her eyes were indigo

Her cats were all calico
And the sailboats
They all sailed by
And a river she cried

With cool and silvery eyes
And a heart that was fit for design
Drowned in a river of tears
A river she cried
Left her with a heart
Made of ashes and fire

Ashes and fire...
Ashes and fire...
Ashes and fire...

U2 - Bullet The Blue Sky (Rattle & Hum)




In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See it driving nails
Into the souls on the tree of pain
From the firefly, a red orange glow
See the face of fear
Running scared in the valley below

Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Bullet the blue

In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel
And the angel was overcome
You plant a demon seed
You raise a flower of fire
See them burning crosses
See the flames higher and higher

Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Bullet the blue

This guy comes up to me
His face red like a rose on a thorn bush
Like all the colors of a royal flush
And he's peeling off those dollar bills
Slapping them down
One hundred, two hundred
And I can see those fighter planes
And I can see those fighter planes
Across the mud huts where the children sleep
Through the alleys of a quiet city street
You take the staircase to the first floor
Turn the key and slowly unlock the door
As a man breathes into a saxophone
And through the walls you hear the city groan
Outside is America
Outside is America

Across the field you see the sky ripped open
See the rain through a gaping wound
Pounding on the women and children
Who run
Into the arms
Of America

Safe from Sorrow Now

I can't believe I've even liked the new John Mayer so much I've let it percolate inside my brain and have even translated that album into a new poem/lyric /song for my own:

Safe from Sorrow Now
My heart was frozen with the river

Man, I probably shouldn’t’ve survived

The propellers fell off my jet plane

Wow, what a nose dive – wild ride

Almost became derailed & went insane

Well, hey, yea, Oh, well, now

I think I’m safe from sorrow

Well, hey, yea, Oh, well, now

Even though there’s nothing left to burrow

Yeah, I’m thinking of a future for tomorrow

So, it was we it became. Sorry I brought you shame.

I was thinking you knew I thought it was only a game

All the blankets in the armoire couldn’t hide my shivers

But now no matter how I feel I know I’m lucky I’m alive

And I’m just grateful to humbly learn how to survive

Well, hey, yea, Oh, well, now

I think I’m safe from sorrow

Well, hey, yea, Oh, well, now

Even though there’s nothing left to burrow

Yeah, I’m thinking of a future for tomorrow

As trains go by along the rails and down the line

River flows and leaves my heart rushing every time

I hear those things – I hear them crying out not knowing

How each way they’ll be thought of by those who see them

Just how their day goes – Whether it was bad or a good one

Well, hey, yea, Oh, well, now

I think I’m safe from sorrow

Well, hey, yea, Oh, well, now

Even though there’s nothing left to burrow

Yeah, I’m thinking of a future for tomorrow

So, Greg, I have experience with grassroots marketing --- whether it's for business like marketing to fortune 500 companies, Rodale Press (as you know) or helping a musical artist (as you know) or helping someone like Gov Tommy Thompson R WI while attending Marquette Uni....(knocking door-to-door in Ralph Lauren). ...

And I had some dream about this "the new everyday media" where something happened and at one point in the dream I'm w/ a Hollywood Emmy Guy in NYC in a bar after 2a and after a little eye sex this leggy blond woman (we're sure of it) w/ long wavy hair and red lips walks up to me and starts making out w/ me and then I try and relay to Julia Allison (who we were interviewing the next day) why I love NYC because of that woman and she said that was inappropriate to relay to her (WTF?!, Julia was partly your creation, Greg). ...
And now there's been this newer dream about New Media Matters; an everyday art. .. which is going well even w/ out any grass roots marketing or marketing at all.

But Dana has had everything givenand handed to her her whole life (i hate people like that) because she's so damn cute / HOT and blond --- and she has this squeaky clean image the Republican party uses and, well, you squeak all right but your basement is filthy dirty and you're a dog. ... ( we all know). ...

Yet, the dirty underdog Greg Gutfeld @greggutfeld who mentioned John French and mystrawhat.com and the Top Hottest Women of the New Everyday Media on his show Red Eye on Fox News Channel @ 3am needs help... So, in short, I will be your "street team" for Pittsburgh.
 
And I know you will mention the new e-book New Media Matters: an everyday art (with its original poetry and its Top 100 Hottest Women of New Media Matters: an everyday art 2012) on Red Eye when the sneak-peak "all new mystrawhat.com" now up is converted to "go live" status is up and running (soon). ..
 
Henceforth, people, unfollow Dana Perino (@danaperino) & Follow Greg Gutfeld (@greggutfeld) ...

Don't you mind people grinnin' in your face.

They'll jump you up and down.
They'll carry you all around and 'round.
Just as soon as your back is turned,
they'll be tryin' to cut you down.
But just bear this in mind, a true friend is hard to find.

Don't you mind people grinnin' in your face...

Your mother, she'll talk about you.
Your brothers and your sisters, too.
Yes, don't care how you're trying to live,
They'll talk about you still.
But just bear this in mind, a true friend is hard to find.

Don't you mind people grinnin' in your face....
= (what a beauty) =
Amen, brother, and, hey Jack White, I totally dig why this is your favorite song and how it inspires you. .. "Dimeatap & spinal tap, a-city maps & hand claps." ..

Holy Alibi


"Where is that?"
I'm not sure
But I'll take you
Down the road
I heard there's
A midnite buying
Seats for the dawn
The sun king's in
A claw foot tub
Then a breakfast
Alone to be NEWS
"Are you sure the
Fire hall is by the
Train tracks?" Yes.
Smokestacks, and
Train tracks, rivers
And a chalk sky on
A clean slate; quivers.
Easter's this Sunday.

Sarah Palin 'Today' Show Appearance: Matt Lauer Asks If She's Reading Newspapers To Prepare (VIDEO)

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/02/sarah-palin-today-show-matt-lauer-newspapers_n_1396161.html?ref=media&ref=media

Sarah Palin called into the "Today" show on Monday to preview her Tuesday co-hosting appearance. The conversation was mostly pleasant, but Matt Lauer managed to get in a dig at Palin's notorious interview with Katie Couric.

It was a busy morning on "Today" as former host Meredith Vieira alsoreturned to the broadcast to make an announcement.

The NBC morning show announced that Palin will guest host the 8:00 a.m. hour after news broke that former "Today" host Katie Couric was filling in over at ABC rival "Good Morning America" for the week. The news of Palin's appearing up against her arch-nemesis was so big that it got the full front page of the New York Daily News.

"How nervous should you all be?" Palin joked, referring to her guest-hosting the program. "What are you doing to prepare?" Lauer asked. "Are you reading some newspapers?"

"Ohhh," Palin said, sounding jokingly insulted. "Here we go."

Lauer was referring to one of the more infamous moments from the Couric chat, where Palin couldn't name a specific newspaper she read.

"There are a few things you should know," Vieira said to Palin. "Matt will deface your property...and if Al asks to show you his neck of the woods, run."

Palin laughed and said that she appreciated "NBC's boldness for having [her] on." She said, "I think it reflects the diversity of opinions and I heard that you all espoused so I appreciate it." Palin will also participate on the "Today's Professionals" segment along with Dr. Nancy Snyderman.

The Two Elite Audiences by French Poet Max Jacob + The Rolling Stones (w/ Bianca) and Bob Dylan


The Two Elite Audiences
The day of the great steeplechase, the queen-mother
wore blue velvet stockings. One of the king's mis-
tresses came up to him at the grandstand: "Prince, that
woman is not your mother; she has no right to the
throne whose prerogatives she usurps!" In a long
speech, the king praised prostitution then married the
mistress, a prostitute. A servant wearing glasses who
slept in the kitchen on the top of an ornamented
porcelain stove was pleased with the marriage. What do the elites think?
The audience of first-nighters thought the speech on prostitution was too long,
while the other elite audience applauded it warmly.
