I am always so nice to you guys and all you do is pick on me. I'm sensitive you know...very, very sensitive. I haven't looked at the news in quite some time but I have it up now and all I see is 'racist,' racist" racist and little else. Seriously the front page I am on, at least 3/4 of the articles are about race, white supremacy, white privilege and a general hate of anything white. Truly insane. It just feels like typical Jewish media psy-op's divide and conquer to me and seems most are falling for it. To hell with these people. And the last time I went to look into baseball ...this was I dunno months ago..I'm not kidding I went to google typed in MLB and the first story that popped up was about some guy at a Chicago game I believe and he was going to be investigated for 'making a white supremacy' symbol with his hand. He was making the OK sign. I was just you know whatever, fook this and turned all media back off. I ain't even be trying to have that. TV/media/sports/Hollywood/news/pop music...to hell with it all. So I've just been sorta back in my own world here. Back to just listening to classical, watched a few Herzog documentaries, Kurosawa and other old foreign films. Spending more time outdoors and reading which is all great but it doesn't leave me with a whole lot to talk about. I'll never attempt to be part of this modern clown show world again. But whatever it's good to talk to you guys and I hope all is well. I did see the Braves record...very impressive and I didn't see that coming at all. I'm guessing they fixed the bullpen? I'm glad you're doing fine. I'm much better off not paying attention to politics, that's the way I've spent most of my life. My views haven't changed, but there's no sense even paying it any attention, things just get crazier as time goes by.
At least pop in every once in awhile and let us know you're still breathing air.

Prepare for the Weirdness By Hunter S. Thompson
"Something is happening here, But you don't know what it is, Do you, Mr. Jones?" -- Bob Dylan
"No sir, not a chance. Mr. Jones does not even pretend to know what's happening in America right now, and neither does anyone else. We have seen Weird Times in this country before, but the year 2000 is beginning to look super weird. This time, there really is nobody flying the plane. ... We are living in dangerously weird times now. Smart people just shrug and admit they're dazed and confused. The only ones left with any confidence at all are the New Dumb. It is the beginning of the end of our world as we knew it. Doom is the operative ethic."
This. Especially the 'shrug and admit they're dazed and confused.' It seems more accurate today and worldwide not just the USA.

" History is hard to know, because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of “history” it seems entirely reasonable to think that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time – and which never explain, in retrospect, what actually happened. My central memory of that time seems to hang on one or five or maybe forty nights – or very early mornings – when I left the Fillmore half-crazy and, instead of going home, aimed the big 650 Lightning across the Bay Bridge at a hundred miles an hour wearing L. L. Bean shorts and a Butte sheepherder’s jacket… booming through the Treasure Island tunnel at the lights of Oakland and Berkeley and Richmond, not quite sure which turn-off to take when I got to the other end (always stalling at the toll-gate, too twisted to find neutral while I fumbled for change)… but being absolutely certain that no matter which way I went I would come to a place where people were just as high and wild as I was: No doubt at all about that.
There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not across the Bay, then up the Golden Gate or down 101 to Los Altos or La Honda… You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning. And that, I think, was the handle – that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting – on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark – that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back." -HST

If you haven't seen this you will probably dig it as you like eccentric characters in this world. One thing about Herzog is that he has the ability to make me feel so much more love and compassion for all humans in general and I love his lack of moralizing or judging his 'characters' whether they are real or fictional.

www.imdb.com/title/tt0427312/ This is the documentary with a basic description but if you know Herzog you kinda know what you are getting into. Timothy Treadwell was the guys name and I think he was somewhat known is the USA. like I was saying Herzog doesn't really tend to inject his opinion or judgement on the man. And you can definitely argue the guy was crazy or had mental problems and he did live a strange life but IMO no crazier than the rest of society. He loved to live with Grizzly bears..thought they were his friends and he didn't really fit into society. I don't really see that any crazier or waste of a life than people who sit on facebook 8 hours a day or whatever the heck we do with our lives now. It's on pirate bay.

So I woke up starving, so hungry I felt almost sick which is common for me. Fried up some greasy burgers, melted some cheese all over them and my stomach was in pain waiting for them to finish. like I am hungry man, seriously hungry..getting sketchy mentally too They finally finish, I grab the buns and they are all nice, soft and super fresh which is a must right? Slap the first patty on the bottom, load the sumbitch up and what do I find on the top half of the bun? A blue spot. Mold, man.F*** mold! Rage, despair. like what is the point in life and why get out of bed? And I just don't get how the buns can be perfectly fresh, all doughy like, yet have mold? How does that work??? I mean if they were stale, sure still sucks but at least makes sense but they weren't. they were NEW and that adds to the intense burning hatred I feel inside. I swear I could just pull a suicide by cop right now. Just start screaming and letting rounds off non stop until they show up then point the gun at them while they unload. And I bet when they finally finish up with my corpse, rope the crime scene off and investigate the house they will find the burgers in the pan, see that blue spot on the bun and it will all make sense.

ZOMG WTF at least scrape everything off the patties and eat them, maybe put some bbq sauce on them before you commit suicide by cop. Don't die hungry! What if it turns out you spend eternity in the condition you die in? Who wants to spend eleventy billion years starving??? And write a note saying I get all of your hockey stuff k thnx.
Dammit I’m hungry now. And I know my buns don’t have mold, so life is pretty good....I think I’ll get on YouTube and watch videos of desperate people committing suicide by cop. BUUUURRRRRRRRRP!!!!!!!

I put it on a toasted bagel. It was surprisingly pretty good and I know you wouldn't think I would eat a bagel due to my antisemitism but desperate times and all that.
The summer is getting to me though man and time moves so slow in this heat. I have enough work but the big problem is my downtime because I don't like much of anything and that is unfortunate. It's sad, I have pirate bay open so can download absolutely anything for free and still can't think of one movie I want to watch. I wish I could find a series or franchise just to get me through till fall. I haven't had TV in 20, 25 years so I've seen all the great directors long ago and don't like repeats.Kurosawa , Bergman, The French New Wave directors,Tarkovsky, Bunuel...you get the idea.
I just really don't like most of Hollywood. I know it's against the board rules here too and I probably risk getting another warning or outright ban for saying this but I've never even watched Clint Eastwood movies. My dad always liked him but I just couldn't buy him as a tough guy when I was a kid. We had The Good, The Bad and The Ugly on VHS growing up and I thought it was cool and I have very vague blurry memories of Dirty Harry shooting someone off a bridge or dock. Other than that. nothing. I dunno, maybe I should check him out and even if I don't like them it will help kill off the rest of summer. Another series I haven't seen is James Bond and I see all his movies on the bay for 30GB's. It's the same thing..I have vague memories of maybe one or two scenes from Bond movies when I was ten or younger but that's it.

I never got into the whole Bond thing at all. I liked Eastwood when I was younger.
I haven’t watched TV in 30 years other than sports, but because of YouTube I started watching clips of the Sopranos last year and got hooked. I have Amazon Prime so I had access to the whole series and binge watched it. When the series was on I just assumed it was al about glorifying mob life, but it’s not. It’s was extremely well done. Well written and well acted, James Gandolfini was great, as was everybody else.
I used to watch movies but not in the last 25 years or more. One that pops into my head that I loved was “The Mouse That Roared” but I seem to recall you saying you didn’t like Peter Sellers.

The medium itself fascinates me. I wonder what people a few hundred years ago would think if they could see humans all staring into a box 6, 8, 12 plus hours per day. It wasn't that long ago when The Matrix movie came out and it had that scene where literally everyone was staring into their phones and now here we are. I don't think any of those movies are made as a warning but to rub it into humans faces just how easy it all is to do. Orwell too, he wasn't a prophet sending a warning he was one of the architects.
So from that angle I am curious about the James Bond phenomena and being one of the longest running series it has to be full of propaganda and in-jokes among the intelligence agencies. I've read a lot about Nazi Germany being run by the Royal Family and most of it's top officers including Hitler and Bormann being M-I6. Hitler,Eva and Bormann escaping to Argentina in "Operation James Bond" with a commando unit lead by Ian Fleming. It's almost impossible to figure out what is fact and what is fiction in this staged world. So many people for so many years have flipped the switch from their favorite movie or TV show assuming it's fiction then over to "the News' as if it's reality but it's not really the case. It could all just be viewed as one long movie.
Operation Paperclip, NASA...
a couple of these Nazi officers even ended up doing kid's shows for Disney and were on the air think about all the soldiers who fought WW2 then came home half blown to bits and set there kid's in front of the TV with no idea who they were watching lol crazy world man, you've got to love it now I just have to figure out if these Bond flics need to be watched in order

"It was twenty years ago today Sergeant Pepper taught the band to play..."
20 years before that song was released Pepper was the head of M-16 and the Beatles were a tavistock creation. Fascinating.
