"You Know..." (Tiny Tim's Last Words)

Those were the last words that Tiny Tim spoke, and this photo is of his very last second on Earth. One second later he keeled over, still holding the mic stand, and his Ukulele. May God rest his beautiful and interesting soul. Tiny was one of a kind. I remember when he hit the scene...I was in shock. I want to say I first heard him on a show called Laugh-In, where he was billed as "Novelty music."

 I thought he was a joke too...for about five seconds. When I heard his voice and his playing style, as strange as they were, I knew he was something special, to me anyway, and I've been a fan ever since. What he brought to the table was unique to say the least. I was hard to please when it came to singer-songwriter types, in other words a guy (or gal) with a guitar, much less a Uke, but Tiny blew me away. 

 I was very saddened to learn of his passing, but is this image some sort of morbid fascination with seeing someone's last moment on Earth? Hardly. I think it's beautiful. I've always said that if I could pick an activity to be doing when I die it would be playing music, and Tiny is just one of many that I'm sure had similar wishes, and actually lived, or rather died, to see them come true. Tiny Tim died doing exactly what he loved to do...what he was born to do. In my book you couldn't ask for anything more. I always try to separate the music from the musician, because a lot of them are into some weird shit, but it's always nice to know that by all accounts a musician was also a good person, and that can be said about Tiny Tim. He died with his music just like he lived with it. Thanks for the style, Tiny Tim. Rest in peace.

Sister with Beautiful Hair

Look at that hair on this sister. My goodness. With hair that beautiful I see no need to color it but it's lady's choice, and the braid does look cool with different colors. I wonder what her natural color is. I hope it's red. There's one way I know of to find out, except you never know how fancy she gets with a razor. From the perspective of a dirty old man I bet she'd look nice wearing naught but that hair. And the glasses. Definitely the glasses. You know what I mean. Y'all come back now, ya hear? Have a nice day. 
 

First Thoughts of the New Year

Many times I'll sit outside on my deckette to get some fresh air and maybe watch the sunrise or stare into the trees. Thank God there's a stand of trees behind this building. My first thought on the morning of January 1 should've been about the promise of a brand-new year and all that shit, but of course it wasn't. 

 Waking up these days is pretty much the opposite of how it's been all my life. Instead of having a bad dream and being glad to wake up in the real world, knowing it was just a bad dream, nowadays I wake up and reality is the nightmare. Except for a stretch a couple of years back I generally don't have many nightmares, but it makes a good illustration of how I feel. 

 It also reminds me of when I've just gone through a bad breakup, and when you wake up in the morning you feel normal for a second or two but then the feeling that something is deeply wrong creeps in, and then it's "Oh, yeah...that thing." 2021 is probably not going to go smoothly for me and some like-minded people, for reasons that should become clear soon. I'll say right now that no matter what others may believe, I'm very grateful for my faith. If I'm nothing but a backward-bumpkin and I'm just making up some all-powerful entity to explain unexplainable things, then so be it. It gives me hope, it eases fear about the future and if you look at this situation from a biblical perspective, all of this bizarre shit actually makes sense. 

 God is love and truth, but the Devil is the father of lies, and for now anyway the Devil is in control of this world. If that's actually true then we should expect nothing but lies. I keep trying to tell you that at least half of what we think we know is lies (bullshit), so from that point of view there you have it. You can believe it or not, and I've never tried to say that my truth is the only one, but I have been looking into all this shit for two decades now, and I bet you haven't looked into it for five seconds. Please don't tell me I'm full of shit just because you don't believe something. Have you looked into it for yourself? I doubt it.

 Anyway I was sitting outside watching 2021 roll in, and with a damn-sight less enthusiasm that on every other new year in my life. I'm about 10' off the ground. I might see two people in a hour, walking by with their dogs, and nobody gets closer than 100' away. I'm thinking that if the new prez gets his way, from now on I'll legally have to be wearing a mask the whole time. That's lunacy, but that's how it will probably be. Again I ask how the fuck am I going to catch ANYTHING if I'm outside, and away from any possible source of contamination? Can someone please tell me? I see people walking alone outside and wearing a mask out of choice, and I thank God I don't live in fear like that. Those people are gripped by fear. It's horrible. And what this is doing to our children...that's an entire 'nother post. Look into it. 

 I have to sit outside for three hours with a fucking MASK on? Every time I walk outside to water my plants I have to put a MASK on? I'll get Brown Lung from breathing in the fine particles that occur when the lining starts to break down within 15 minutes of putting one on? This is true insanity, yet I'll be called crazy for saying this. If I were in a situation where I was close to people I'D WEAR ONE, but outdoors all by myself and never being NEAR another person? Are you kidding me? How can people accept this? Oh, I know...FEAR. It's sad. Plus those motherfuckers and their mask mandate will introduce another trillion masks into the environment, but who gives a shit, right? This is evil. 

 The best way I can put it is that everything is flip-flopped, and there's a certain book that mentions it. It says there will come a time when everything will be reversed...good will be taken for evil and evil for good, right for wrong, darkness for light, etc. It's happening right in front of our noses, but most people don a mask and look the other way. Even though it makes no sense, do it anyway. Shut everything down. Fuck it...we don't need small businesses any more. They're not the backbone of our economy. If we don't kill our economy we're all going to DIE! I'd rather take my chances with a virus than to have the whole country turn into Detroit, but that's what could happen. By the by that book says "WOE" to those who take evil for good. We'll see. The truth speaks for itself no matter what I or anyone says. And the truth WILL come out. You can count on it. Buckle-up.

 I have to admit this is a bit hard to handle. To think I'll have to wear a mask outside, all by myself and out in the open, just gets my goat. The feeling in my stomach won't go away. I know that if nobody stands up to this shit or at least questions it, we're fucked. And more than that, our KIDS will have to live in this world. It doesn't have to be this way. Just ask, "Why a mask outside?" What's your answer? Wake up.
 

The Greatest Transfer of Wealth in History

Since the plannedemic began, 56 people have become billionaires, and this is just the beginning. Welcome to the biggest transfer of wealth in all of recorded history. #2 goes to the Great Depression. With more lockdowns looming, more and more people will lose their jobs, homes, businesses, vehicles, properties (not to mention their minds)...you name it, and it's 100% UNDESERVED, BTW, and it'll all be snapped up by the bad guys for pennies on the dollar. Adios, whatever's left of the middle-class. Nice knowin' yas.

 They give us Fiat currency, which literally isn't worth the paper it's printed on, but their currency is actual tangible goods, such as precious metals, property, etc. It's also a debt-based system, and a system based on debt will at some point fail. If people even understood that the Federal Reserve has absolutely NOTHING to do with federal ANYTHING, but is privately-owned, there might be progress, but people don't bother to look into one damn thing. 

 56 new billionaires this year. How did they make their money? Look into it for yourself. Look into what companies were primed to make a fortune off of all this panic, and look who owns the companies, and what they've done in the market. You'll probably be surprised at what you find, but then again you probably won't even bother. Well, then, my friend...it's on you. This doesn't have to happen. Wake up.

New Year's 1921/2021

This headline is from the New York Herald, January 1, 1921. Apparently New Year's sucked a century ago too. How sad, but how eloquent and marvelous too. "Agreeably dull." "Crowds dry as Borax." "Fish horns toot in minor key." That's poetry, man. The latter statement sounds like the title of a Captain Beefheart album. 

 I'm not sure about "alcoholic ecstasy" not being in evidence this year, since alcohol use has gone up by over 40% since the start of the plannedemic, but other than that they pretty much nailed this year100 years ago. What goes around comes around. 

 What's in a century? In 1921 it was no booze. In 2021 it's no freedom. I know which one I'd choose. I don't drink much to begin with. Give me liberty or give me fish horns tooting in minor keys. That's killer.  Oh, well...Happy New Year's anyway!
 

Fiber: Nature's Broom?

They say that fiber is "Nature's Broom." In other words it cleans you out. Most people don't get enough fiber in their diet, and that's bad. Not getting enough fiber can lead to a host of problems, some minor and some serious enough to make taking fiber ever again moot point, if you get my drift. 

 Besides keeping you reg, fiber removes toxins, can help with blood-sugar and weight-gain issues, and can even help prevent cancer. There are two types of fiber: soluble, which dissolves in water, and insoluble, which doesn't. Without going into the differences you need both. 

 The most common types you see in the store are mostly Psyllium husks, often with added artificial flavors, sweeteners and colors. If you have to get store brand it's best to get plain psyllium, but there's still the matter of pesticides, heavy metals, etc. If you're okay with putting that shit into your body then have at it, but it kinda defeats the purpose. I haven't been getting enough fiber lately, and I wasn't about to buy some pesticide-laced crap. Use organic.

I just got this on Amazon. It's two pounds for $20 shipped. That's a little pricey compared to non-organic, but the quality is much better, there are three types of fiber and well, it's organic. Plus it's not gritty at all like most fiber. It has a faintly sweet flavor but otherwise is neutral. In addition to Psyllium it has Agave and Oat fiber. Both of those are soluble and much better at removing toxins. Fiber has anti-cancer properties. It's good stuff.

 Another substantial benefit of Oat and Agave fiber, unlike Psyllium, is that they're prebiotics, which create favorable conditions for the growth of probiotics, which helps the good bacteria in the gut. Having healthy gut flora is crucial for things like digestion, a healthy immune system and many, many other things, and has even been shown to be connected to good mental health. Google it, Dylan. 

 This isn't nearly as expensive as it gets for high-end fiber (who knew there was such a thing) but it's plenty good. Stuff like Metamucil or whatever it is tastes like you took a glass of Tang to the ocean, dipped it into the sand, stirred it and drank it. This stuff is actually almost pleasant and it dissolves completely. You get what you pay for and there's a big difference. Trying to do your body good by taking fiber, but taking in chemicals and heavy metals makes not much sense. Go organic. It works out to be a nickel extra per serving, if that. It's worth every penny. 

 Here's the kicker, as it were- just like way back in the day when I tried psychedelics a few times, I wanted to get the full experience and then some, so sometimes I took double or triple the normal amount necessary to take a trip and never leave the farm, and it's the same with fiber, only more so. I like to take at least ten times the usual dose of fiber. First off, do NOT try this yourself, at least not nearly that drastic. I'm an expert on fiber. If you take fiber in any amount you must take it with a lot of water. Per tablespoon of fiber you should drink at least 10-12oz of water (purified, please). 

 When I take ten times the usual amount of fiber I can't drink that much water but I drink as much as I can. It can actually be dangerous to take too much fiber without drinking enough water, but only daredevil-detoxers like me need worry. Not many people could choke down fiber dry anyway. Few people have the desire to take fiber to begin with, much less a little extra, and much, much less ten times the normal amount, but I'm the Steve-o of intestinal purification. 

 What I usually do is mix ten or more scoops, about three at a time, in a big glass of water, and then go about my business. Ha ha I didn't mean to say that as a joke, but it's true. Like psychedelics, fiber takes a while to kick-in. What I meant was that after I take a mega-dose of fiber I'll just do regular things, but access to a bathroom is part of the plan at some point. I drink some more water in an hour or two. Might as well clean out all the pipes at once. Drinking pure water is very good for you, and most people don't drink nearly enough. I have to say that taking a crazy dose of fiber usually isn't easy, but this stuff was barely thicker than water and it went down very smoothly. 

 What normally happens after taking the fiber is sometime in between a few hours later and the next morning there will be a "knock at the door," and it's best to answer it. Images of those huge tunnel-boring machines go through my head as the fiber, having weaved its magic, moves along toward the end game. As Matty K used to say, "It'll set you free!" It will too. I wouldn't try it with pure Psyllium though. It'll give you enough gas to fill 99 red balloons. Seriously, don't try it. 

 So about once a month or so I'll take a massive dose of fiber, and try to avoid travelling or going to an all-night rave, and stay fairly close to home. It's best of course to take it daily, and according to the package directions, but I ramp it up. They call it "Natures Broom." I call it "Nature's Battering Ram."
