"Evidence of Absence", whatever deep meaning that holds, is the title of James Howard Kunstler's latest blog post. Sometimes he chooses titles for his pieces that even more befuddle my already befuddled brain. Nevertheless, the intention is clear, and a finer description of the state of the union that for the time being is America... Continue Reading →
America-Russia – A Study in Bad and Good
Things are looking up for the people of Raqqa province in Syria. The Americans just left their last base a little away from Raqqa city (previous home of the ISIS caliphate until razed to the ground by US bombing and shelling in late 2017), leaving by the front door as the Russian Military Police entered...

At Last, Russia’s Help Requested…
I know that no-one much is interested (well the event is five and a half years old now) in the MH17 airliner crash over Ukraine in July 2014. But I for one will not let the story die until the truth is observed - and the truth is that Russia had nothing to do with... Continue Reading →
Change IS Coming…
What is “bargain shopping”? Well Jim Kunstler's definition, which I really like, is: "...we have sent the factories to distant lands and eliminated your jobs, and all the meaning and purpose in your lives — and cheap stuff from Asia is your consolation prize. Enjoy…" I also love it when he gets all 'homey', like... Continue Reading →

The question is - When will the West wake up to... Continue Reading →

A Little Rejuvenation
I haven't uploaded any music tracks to this site for a long, long, time, perhaps because over recent years I have grown away from finding music a necessary component of my life - and that perhaps also being to my detriment. Music can have a lifting effect on the mind and soul, and we all... Continue Reading →
I Am A…
I am a conspiracy theorist. I just didn't realise or admit to that before. How wonderful. I learned something about myself today. And though I refuse to be defined by tags, I am not afraid to wear this as a label. Which means that I am neither "an idiot" nor "a coward". Wow! Two more... Continue Reading →
