 [Conspiracy
Theory of the Week] The trails in the sky seen by everyone are not
contrails. Contrails linger only for a few seconds, and follow the jet like
a tail. What everyone is actually witnessing is called chemtrails (chemical
trails). Chemtrails are being sprayed by the military, and linger in the sky
between 4 to 8 hrs. They start to expand looking like clouds after a while.
The government acknowledges these chemtrails, but won't disclose any
information on what's its purpose. All they're stating is that it's not
harmful to humans. Rumors have it that it's to reflect the sun rays back to
space in order to control global warming.
Groups of private citizens hired scientists to examine
the contents of these chemtrails, but the military did not allow it. So the
scientists took samples from our water, ground, air and rain and discovered
through analysis, that the components of these chemtrails had high levels of
aluminum oxide, magnesium, high T blood cells, etc attached to microscopic
fibers. These fibers attach themselves to our lungs and start causing
serious health issues, and a breakdown of our immune system. Results showed
in every instance that the chemical components are extremely toxic to
humans. Studies showed that when spraying in massive scale some results were
pulmonary diseases, skin blisters, and in some cases violence and paranoia.
I've been seeing these chemtrails practically everyday,
but my question is if it's to reflect the sun's rays back to space to slow
down global warming, why are they spraying at night too? |

 I
was just wondering if there was any licensing or regulatory body covering
Sport fishing and Dive Charters? The reason I ask is that last Saturday I
observed an aqua blue boat with a small tuna tower at Looe Key.
It had tied off to one of
the mooring balls on the inside of the reef so he knew he was in the marine
sanctuary. It was at this point he sent two guys over the sides with PUMA
pneumatic spear guns! One guy swam directly under my boat. When one of them
returned to the boat with a speared fish the "Captain" told him to get
around to the back of the boat so as not to be seen. I advised him that he
was in a protected area and a no-take zone and that the FWC would take a dim
view of spear fishing at Looe Key. I thought it had to be a tourist that did
not know any better as it was such a brazen
in-the-open-middle-of-the-afternoon-lots-of-boats-around move. Imagine my
surprise when after hurriedly recalling his divers to the boat, he untied
and turned to leave revealing large red letters on the upper station that
said CAPT B's Undersea Adventures. Like shooting fish in a barrel,
huh, dirt bag? I was in the water with my houseguest's and their
children from Maine showing them a couple of sharks and explaining how it
was safe to swim around them as long as some idiot didn't introduce
something like wounded and bleeding speared fish. I did notify FWC, but I'm
not sure they were able to do much about it after the fact.
So, next time you go diving at Looe Key and don't see quite the same amount
of sea life you did the last time, please be sure to thank Captain B's
Undersea Adventures. I spear fish too, but not inside marine sanctuaries!

 With
the developers and builders wanting to cover every inch of the Keys with
housing and commercial structures for fun and profit and the year around
residents wanting privacy, peace and quiet and to keep the value of their
properties-- I suggest there be a voting system by the full time residents
(full vote) and the snowbirds (half vote) to govern any new developments or
construction. This should be done on an island=to-island basis--not as a
whole for all the Keys. This way the people who live here will have the real
say in the future of our Keys. We have lost sight of what politicians are.
They are our public servants, not our rulers. Remind them of this ASAP. |

Before someone corrects my
math, I flubbed. It would take me 71/2 years to make what A Rod makes in
one game. I make more in a year than he does in one inning, but not by much.
It is comparable. Anyway, my batting average still stinks.
Also, I really meant that I could not leave my island,
as the cost to drive to Marathon is prohibitive. I have no plans of leaving
"the islands." |

Hillary’s desperate plan to
suspend the federal gas tax
for the summer is total pandering from a losing candidate. Her (and
McCain’s) plan would save the average driver $30 while costing upwards of
300,000 construction jobs according to the DOT. That tax money is used to
fix our highways and bridges. I thought she was for the working man? |

[Has
not some of the information being posted given you some of the positions?]
Nope. And if it had I would not have sent the post. All it's given me is
he's an architect. So by starting your post "has not", you're saying you
don't think I meant what I wrote. Hhmmm. Instead of defending or talking
about past posts, which merely continues the useless, move on. Tell me, give
me a list, stop talking backwards, which just proved my point. Hopefully
your next post will have information about the candidate that will make me
consider voting for him.
And a note for your next post, correct grammar is easier to read. If I have
to use time to figure out what you're trying to say, that detracts from the
content. You could have all the best reasons, but if people can't understand
your words, it's all lost. Or else, Ed is editing you and taking out words,
which I do not believe is happening.

military working dogs and firefighting capabilities. There will be food and
NAS Key West merchandise available for purchase. Coolers, pets, and large
backpacks will not be allowed on the airfield, and vehicles and hand-carried
bags are subject to inspection for prohibited items, such as drugs, alcohol,
and weapons.

I have been called a cop hater,
a criminal, and a person who doesn't respect the law. It is said that a
picture is worth a thousand words. Really there is nothing more to be said;
just look at yesterday’s video from the chopper in Philly. I do not care
what the occupants of that car did; the police are not judge, jury, and
executioner. Every one of those cops on the screen should be prosecuted,
kicked off the force and be put into prison, and should never be able to
wear a badge again. Citizens, this happens every day, but there is not
always a video camera on the scene. I’ve heard of cops seizing cameras and
taking the tape or the film. They are gangsters and thugs with a badge,
empowered by the government. |

There has been so much crap forced
down the throat of the citizenry of the USA the last 30 years that I'm
surprised that they are still able to swallow. I didn't think the Patriot
Act was so bad until I read it carefully. It is a virtual Martial Law and
gives extraordinary powers to the police, any police like the Gestapo, Stazi,
KGB, or the ÁVÓ. Does the government think they can make the whole USA a
prison under the guise of security? |

[Boo Hoo redux] It would
be refreshing to read a posting that is critical of the GWB admin that has
does have not rely on simple sarcasm and on pejorative language to try
to emphasize a point. The argument that the GDP is and has been in positive
numbers is “nonsense” is fallacious. If the GDP markers are of no
consequence, why do economists routinely rely on them? And, why do
economists require that 2 consecutive quarters of negative GPD have occurred
before declaring a recession is in place? Please remember that the critic is
claiming that the nation is in rack and ruin as a result of Bush policies.
For liberals, the inconvenient truth (thanks for something Mr. Gore) is that
we have not had any, that’s -0-, quarters of negative growth since 3rd
Q ‘01, post 9/11, and the tail end of the Clinton lame duck tail spin
economy. Look, right now; the economy is not roaring nor is it rotting.
Our critic failed to mention that U.S. retail and food service sales for
March increased 0.2 percent from the previous month. Nor did he mention
that the Quarterly Financial Report - Manufacturing, Mining and Trade states
that seasonally adjusted after-tax sales profits for the fourth quarter of
2007 are up 0.1%. I guess he just forgot to tell us that Industrial
production rose 0.3 percent in March. None of these numbers are stellar,
but they are all positive indicators.
Our critic cites has two main complaints. First the
price of petroleum products--that’s energy; and second is housing, vis a vis
the mortgage crisis. I agree with my critic's position that petroleum
prices are ruinous. Our dependency on foreign petroleum is nothing short of
scandalous. We rely on foreign sources for more than 2/3 of our petroleum
needs; the price is set on the international market by speculators and
OPEC. Today’s market prices, soon to be $125+ per bbl or much
more, guarantees that, if permitted, our oil companies are able to access
and exploit and refine our ample domestic supplies. But, only if they are
permitted to so do. It has been the policy of the Bush Admin and of the
Republican Party to deliver this resource to the American people. I trust
that the critic will not even attempt to deny that the Democrats and the eco
warrior political machine have, with religious fervor, thwarted these
Republican efforts to eliminate the nonsensical 25+ year moratorium.
If you hate the gas prices, blame a Democrat, if you
want to get lower gas prices, elect a Republican. Mortgage defaults: Our
critic might be trying to convince you that the evil Bush administration is
the proximate cause of mortgage defaults. If you will do the research you
will find that the default rate of conventional mortgages is not
substantially higher than it has ever been. The problem child of mortgages
are the sub prime, low or no down payment mortgages. These instruments,
most with ARM provisos, and or little or no buyer equity in the collateral
property are the stink bombs of the industry and are at the very core of the
situation. Default rates of these exotic products are astounding.
Speculators and poorly qualified purchasers are the majority of the legions
of defaulters. There is a reason for all of this, but it damn sure isn't GWB. |

Come join us at the Big Pine Peace Rally, every Saturday from
10-11a.m.A woman drove up to our group last Sat. and has asked us to wear
special t-shirts this weekend in honor of her fallen loved one. They are a
heart shaped Peace sign with the words underneath Have a Peaceful Heart.
It's all about the remembering and never forgetting.
As always there will be total respect for everyone. We are protesting the
war. We are supporting our troops in every way. Bring them home alive!
Spread the word. End the war. Peace. |

 To
add insult to injury America has the largest prison population in the
world in both the number of people and in percent of the population. You
are told that China and other communist counties hold political dissenters.
We are fed propaganda and so many honest Americans can't see the truth.
Please open your eyes and ears. Things are not always what they seem. You
don't have to look very hard to see the truth, but you have to be willing to
accept it. America is not the best anymore and we are not the most free. |

 I
bought my tickets for the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Keys Area
fund-raiser in Big Pine. Their phone number is 872-2934 if anyone is
interested in buying them. Or you can buy them at the door on Sunday. The
Big Pine Boys and Girls Club is located next to the Big Pine Neighborhood
Charter School. It is going to be a great time with Mile Marker 24 band,
lots of food, drinks, and prizes. Let's pull together and help the ones who
help take care of our kids in Big Pine and Key West.

Today’s lead article in
this week’s issue of Key West
the Newspaper:
Is the Peryam Sex
Scandal an Elaborate Conspiracy to Derail His Run for Sheriff?
Yeah, according to the article; a conspiracy devised by Bob Peryam himself,
and aided and abetted by quite a few of his cohorts at the Monroe County
Sheriff Office. Quite a few. Starting at the very top, and working down from
there. Meanwhile . . .
 Something
floated into my thoughts last night, as I walked back into Old Town from a
Bahama Village community meeting wondering why I had gone to it. Mostly, the
people there were concerned about Bahama Village teenagers staying out too
late, running with the wrong kinds of people, doing the wrong kinds of
things, and going beyond to being at risk, to being lost. The only bright
spot was the woman sitting next to me, who said she works for the Housing
Authority and her husband is a Key West police officer assigned to the
juvenile division. She said the problem with teens in the housing project
assigned to her in Marathon (Sheriff Capt. Bob Peryam’s backyard) is worse
than the teen problem in Bahama Village and Key West.

This site used to be entertaining
and informative to read, but you have allowed it to go to s**t. Over the
last few weeks, there have been some very obnoxious people who seem to be
posting every day. The conspiracy theorists, cop haters, NWO crap, and
whacked-out politicians (some of which apply to all of these titles)
have completely hijacked this site with not only stupid, but totally
ridiculous comments. I no longer want to read this site, for it has become
a safe zone for downright hateful people. Speaking truth that is negative
is one thing. But enticing total chaos and hatred is another. So with
this, I bid you adieu. Have fun with these people. |

I heard on Morning Joe that
Obama is the weaker candidate, but he's the one going to the general
election. Hillary is the stronger candidate but doesn’t stand a chance. Also
I hear that the powers that be want to split our votes between Hillary and
Obama. It doesn’t matter that she beat him it’s because so many people are
backing the weakest candidate. When are we going to stop letting other
people make up our minds? I do not want Obama as president. We do not need a
motivational speaker. I listened to his speeches and there is no substance
to them. He bobs and weaves and never answers a question head on. I’m not
going to stay home in November. I say if you don’t want McCain and think Ron
Paul is better, write in Ron Paul. I am going to write in Hillary’s name. |

Myanmar dictators are
resisting aid from the international community in order to keep foreigners
out of the country. Isn't this a perfect excuse for Bush to order an
invasion to clean out terrorists and obtain a regime change from brutal
dictators? Maybe they have oil or some other valuable natural resource over
there that big business could use. At the very least we could keep
Blackwater and Haliburton going for several more decades. |

[Cops enforce the rule of law]
Cops: Constable On Patrol. These people, yes they are people, have a scary
life style, knowing full well they can die in an instant. Their family lives
reflect this with turmoil and if children are included, questionable
rearing. Although these police persons can, at any time, quit, they mostly
are lost of another trade. Mentally conditioned to be aware all the times
and usually with high tensioned nerves, they do not make for a pleasant
partner in the common work place. Mental illness is at a higher percentage
compared to the normal worker, hence the "flying off the handle" syndrome
you see on TV. They also have a high suicide rate. It is strongly suggested
not to anger these gun carrying personnel. Take your problem to court, that
is what it is for. Then if misjudged, well, then it is up to you! |

Get ready folks, the republicans
should be hitting the roof soon. They insisted that both Clintons release
their tax records and Bill isn’t even in a political office. Well now
John McCain’s wife refuses to show her tax records and says she won’t even
if John is elected. In the name of fair and balanced, the Republican should
demand her records too. If you want Bill’s you should want Mrs McCain’s. I
have a feeing they won’t make the same demands of their own candidates. |

This is how it works:
they raise the price of the basics: oil, electric, water, air (coming soon)
they cut the supplies of natural resources
they increase the costs of transportation of supplies
they reduce all property values by social intertwining
they raise taxes to bleed off savings
they increase the police and military in numbers
they fine and put leans on properties for tax evasion
they foreclose on mortgages and loans
they take control of all properties
they change the laws to support development systems
they separate the classes into non-associated types
they reeducate the people to a lesser level
they set up a international ruling tribunal
they create new rules and regulations you must follow
they create extreme punishments for disobeying
they eliminate completely, those who protest,
they are your rulers
Does this sound far fetched? Defend the American way or lose it! |

The eighth grade transition programs that took place last week at all three
Monroe County public high schools were designed by students for students
through the sponsorship and leadership of Monroe Youth Challenge Program
to reduce school violence. Immediately after the first 8TP, the Safe and
Drug-Free Schools Report showed the number of violent acts against persons,
harassment, and fighting incidents on all three campuses dropped. From the
school year 2004-2005 to 2005-2006 reports dropped at Coral Shores from 19
to 4. Marathon went from 25 to 22 incidents and Key West dropped from 21 to
16.
The MYCP-sponsored transition programs are designed to
benefit eighth-grade classes merging into the district’s three high schools.
In Marathon, the program is called 6TP because it focuses on the incoming
middle school class.
Statistics indicate that ninth-grade is a critical year
for high school students and the success or failure of a student during this
year is connected to drop out rates among at-risk students. The creators of
the 8TP, all former students of CSHS, designed the program to address some
crucial developmental assets that these and all youth need which is to feel
connected, safe and have a sense of choice and self confidence. Monroe Youth
Challenge Program is a project of the Monroe County Education Foundation to
foster acceptance, respect, and success in the youth of Monroe County.
For more information about this project or any other
MYCP-sponsored program call MYCP Director Sunny Booker at (305) 293-1400
