Getting tired of YouTube

So I'm gonna start double posting my videos at: http://s660.photobucket.com/albums/uu328/TexanCyclist/

Figure it won't be long before the Y.T. will become useless. After teaming up with Zionists videos are becoming increasingly harder to upload. Never been able to censor myself, so I'm not going to allow some one else to censor me.

Got to get back in the habit of posting here on a more regular basis.

Posting Here

Windows ate my desktop. After the 3rd time someone asked me a question about Vista, I figured I had to add it to my knowledge base. Talked my favorite retailer into a free copy, he knows I butter his bread & why, & installed it. Now, my basic computer is only 3 years old & was rated as second best @ that time. I'll admit that some of the inner components, TV card & video cards are 10 & 8 years old respectively, but they worked fine with XP Pro.

Before I even got to tell it where the drivers were Vista crashed due to a fatal hardware error. Which would normally not be a problem, boot up in safe mode install the drivers go back & install. Wrong. Once Vista starts installing you can't do anything else. You can't go back & cancel the process, you're stuck in a loop. System crashing because of hardware drive error. No way out.

As a parting shot, when I attempted to re-install XP Pro the computer took a swan dive jumbling the boot sector of the hard drive and wiping the bios off the motherboard. Left me with a doorstop.

So I'm back to my 90's era laptop with a double boot linux (original system) & windows 2000 Pro (it was free & it works) which is good for watching and writing, but editing videos? No way!

Long Time No Post!

Basically moved myself over to YouTube. Setting up my camera & letting my rants flow is just so much easier. An additional benefit is knowing not only that my views are being shared, but actually subscribed to and commented on. Here, I've always felt like I was ranting in the dark with an audience of one. Me.

I reckon what I should be doing is embedding my videos here in case YouTube gets wise and kicks me off! Like my life isn't already full enough.

404 Congressional Action

Talk about error. On October 23, 2007 404 of our congress critters voted to give the Shrub et. al. authority to police our thoughts (especially on the net) and arbitrarily decide if we are inclined to be violent.

Not happy enough finding terrorist in every country with exportable assets, they are getting ready to start filling detention centers here at home. So, be careful what you print or say, the thought police are on their way. Ain't it funny how even C-Span didn't mention passage of this bill?

The way I see it we have 404 traitors to the constitution in the House. I wonder how many we have in the Senate. We know the Resident is.

"The Rant" by Tom Degan: Bush and Cheney's Private Gestapo

This particular post caught my comment, but most of his post are equally relevant.

Bruce is Back

Thanks to the Tennessee Gorilla Girls a taste is available. Also on AlterNet a cut you can sample. I'll admit I thought he was a lightweight when first I heard him. Nothing but respect for him now. Funny how his music makes you dancing happy while his words bring sadness and sorrow. Kinda like the drumbeats for war, they get you all excited while bringing nothing good.

What would you have done in '38

William Blum (via ICH) led me to this:

I.F. Stone: "The only kinds of fights worth fighting are those you are going to lose because somebody has to fight them and lose and lose and lose until someday, somebody who believes as you do wins. In order for somebody to win an important, major fight 100 years hence, a lot of other people have got to be willing -- for the sheer fun and joy of it -- to go right ahead and fight, knowing you're going to lose. You mustn't feel like a martyr. You've got to enjoy it."

Howard Zinn: "People think there must be some magical tactic, beyond the traditional ones -- protests, demonstrations, vigils, civil disobedience -- but there is no magical panacea, only persistence."

Noam Chomsky: "There are no magic answers, no miraculous methods to overcome the problems we face, just the familiar ones: honest search for understanding, education, organization, action that raises the cost of state violence for its perpetrators or that lays the basis for institutional change -- and the kind of commitment that will persist despite the temptations of disillusionment, despite many failures and only limited successes, inspired by the hope of a brighter future."

Sam Smith: "Those who think history has left us helpless should recall the abolitionist of 1830, the feminist of 1870, the labor organizer of 1890, and the gay or lesbian writer of 1910. They, like us, did not get to choose their time in history but they, like us, did get to choose what they did with it. Knowing what we know now about how these things turned out, but also knowing how long it took, would we have been abolitionists in 1830, or feminists in 1870, and so on?"

Wiser men than I. Myself, I try to do my little part. I wear my, "Impeach Cheney?" cap and try to ask at least one question in my encounters pertaining to the sad state our State has sunken into. Nearly everyone agrees that something grand has gotten really rotten. Nobody seems to actually want to do anything. Content to watch their TV, eat their GM foods, and spend money they have yet to earn.
