[FairfieldLife] RE: Congress Fears Out of Control Obama Could Suspend Election Laws
After a year of messy contemplation, I just purchased a used 32' RV, using my sense of smell - Self-contained (you can save about $80,000 by buying used, with lo miles). Phase two is purchasing ~5 to 10 acres of land in the Sierra foothills, or south of here. Phase three is to buy, and construct a big quonset hut studio (1000 sq ft.) - they come in kits. I like the convenience of urban areas, and am keeping the house I have, but I really crave a place of solitude, also, where I can immerse myself in the religion of art, without the dogma - painting the stars at 3 AM, etc.:-)

I have not actually lived in the States since 1984 and even then it was only for about 11 years (from 1973 - 1984) since I had moved away to Europe initially at 9 years old and lived there until I was 17. I think what really did it for me was 9/11 because since then I have come to realize that there is so much misplaced patriotism and fear. Both of these things seem to have created a very selfish and paranoid type of citizen that I find depressing and even suppressing. There is this strange feeling of narrow mindedness in many quarters and it sort of scares me and makes me think the US is not long for this world - lack of real vision and broad mindedness can lead to the demise of things and people. I am sure my thoughts here will piss some of you off but there you have it.

I don't find what you are talking about, as being confined to here. It is more apparent in the US, because, one, we have very few traditions to slow us down, and two, the development of our technology has outpaced the development of our consciousness. I recall Maharishi referring to the US as the most creative country in the world, and I agree that it is. However, he never said we were the most intelligent country on the planet, and I would agree there, too.:-)

And lots of snow if you select the Sierra foothills. Friends who live near Grass Valley sent me pictures of all the snow they got yesterday morning. I thought about moving there myself in 2000 and went to Grass Valley on business with these friends along. We stopped at a real estate office to see what was available. That summer I also visited the area with a friend and determined that Grass Valley had quite a tourist trade and I really wasn't sure that I wanted to live in such a place. But my friends did buy up there a year or two later. One plus for geeks, there's a Fry's in Roseville. ;-) On 12/08/2013 05:20 AM, doctordumb...@rocketmail.com wrote: After a year of messy contemplation, I just purchased a used 32' RV, using my sense of smell - Self-contained (you can save about $80,000 by buying used, with lo miles).

A single EMP detonation along the upper West coast will turn Chanukastan into a dark hole after the fourth day. The hoards will roam looking for food because of the barren shelves and inoperable gas stations. Think North Korean balloon launch from a submarine in prelude to an invasion of the South. Of course this can never happen. We're too sophisticated. Heh Heh.

Thank you for the info. Good intuition - I had been looking in that area, only a little further down the hill. I am trying to stay around 1,000 feet, to avoid a lot of snow. I am not to the point of visiting sites, except through G Earth, since I want to get used to what I have, so far, and choose carefully. There was a great property right next to Lake Berryessa, but after investigating, they have major water sourcing and runoff problems, leading to crazy water bills ~$800/mo. I like the Aromas area, too, but friends there say there is more and more fracking going on, down there, and well water contamination would not be an option.

Re: Specifically, Rep. Trey Gowdy from South Carolina has now publicly raised fears that Obama could go ahead and suspend election laws in order to maintain control of the presidency. This reads like Obama is going to refuse to step down and will instead form a military dictatorship. Ahhh, the fear, the fear.

Jeez, between this insane stuff and the notion that the Chinese are going to take out the West Coast with nuclear bombs, you really gotta wonder what's scaring these people so badly they aren't thinking straight.

Or, thinking at all. I've met and talked with libertarian conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on several occasions up in Austin. According to Jones, the US used fake footage in Moon landings and NASA is covering up thousands of dead astronauts; the Oklahoma City bombings and the WTC attack on 9/11 were both inside jobs. Go figure. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Jones On 12/7/2013 9:50 PM, authfri...@yahoo.com wrote: *Jeez, between this insane stuff and the notion that the Chinese are going to take out the West Coast with nuclear bombs, you really gotta wonder what's scaring these people so badly they aren't thinking straight.* * Emily wrote: * Re: Specifically, Rep.

I know...I feel like it's time to find God ASAP or pack up and move to Fairfield to take up TM and finally get my masters degree.
