2:34pm
last night i dreamed i was hanging
out with paul mccartney and darwin. and briefly gary numan.
darwin and paul were going in together on a pub/restuarant business.
it had a pond with lily pads on one side and a toy train zoomed around the
entire building.
it was aimed at people who had a lot of money to spend.
it was like an irish oub with a whimsical sgt pepper feel to it.
this would have been a good dream if paul had not asked me why everyone hated
me so much.
and i was like...what do you mean? people hate me? who?? and why??
and then he told me i was obnoxious and said all these things i never said
or did. and i just couldn't prove to him that i had never said or done those
things.
and i felt very sad.
darwin was in a wheelchair and had a large beard.
and his wheel chair kepr crashing into me or i kept crashing into it.
i felt awkward.
today i can feel that fall is here.
it is grey and 64 degrees.
i am trying to get my gumption up to go to the bank or at least get out for
a walk.
my body needs it. i am turning into a piece of flab.
i sit too much at the computer.
i hope you liked the pix in yesterday's anagram.
i had fun making it all and felt very good about it.
today, so far, i have been mostly researching this:
Operation Northwoods
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Northwoods
Full
text of Operation Northwoods in searchable HTML format
Operation Northwoods document in JPEG format
In 1962, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff approved something called Operation Northwoods. It involved committing random acts of terror on Americans in the United States and then blaming them on Cuba. Most of the documents detailing this are found in the National Archives, among the thousands of papers the Joint Chiefs of Staff released about the Cuban missile crisis.
Starting rumors about Cuba by using clandestine radios.
Staging mock attacks, sabotages and riots at Guantanamo Bay and blaming it
on Cuban forces.
Firebombing and sinking an American ship at the Guantanamo Bay American military
base—reminiscent of the USS Maine incident at Havana in 1898, which
started the Spanish-American War—or destroy American aircraft and blame
it on Cuban forces. (The document's first suggestion regarding the sinking
of a U.S. ship is to blow up a manned ship and hence would result in U.S.
Navy members being killed, with a secondary suggestion of possibly using unmanned
drones and fake funerals instead.)
"Harassment of civil air, attacks on surface shipping and destruction
of US military drone aircraft by MIG type [sic] planes would be useful as
complementary actions."
Destroying an unmanned drone masquerading as a commercial aircraft supposedly
full of "college students off on a holiday". This proposal was the
one supported by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Staging a "terror campaign", including the "real or simulated"
sinking of Cuban refugees
"We could develop a Communist Cuban terror campaign in the Miami area,
in other Florida cities and even in Washington. The terror campaign could
be pointed at Cuban refugees seeking haven in the United States. We could
sink a boatload of Cubans enroute [sic] to Florida (real or simulated). We
could foster attempts on lives of Cuban refugees in the United States even
to the extent of wounding in instances to be widely publicized."
Burning crops by dropping incendiary devices in Haiti, Dominican Republic
or elsewhere.
According to James Bamford in Body of Secrets:
Operation Northwoods, which had the written approval of the Chairman and
every member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, called for innocent people to be
shot on American streets; for boats carrying refugees fleeing Cuba to be sunk
on the high seas; for a wave of violent terrorism to be launched in Washington,
D.C., Miami, and elsewhere. People would be framed for bombings they did not
commit; planes would be hijacked. Using phony evidence, all of it would be
blamed on Castro, thus giving Lemnitzer and his cabal the excuse, as well
as the public and international backing, they needed to launch their war.

also this is sad to me:
Saudis
consider banning women from Mecca
which when i posted it in my LJ a few days ago, received no comments about
this whatsoever.
but one person said this:
On the subject of women, I joined foto_decadent and in just one day this was posted: http://community.livejournal.com/foto_decadent/1403878.html#cutid1
It upset me so much that I left the community. I'm curious what you think about it.
and i replied:
it would take me a novel
to really even begin to say how i feel about it...
but i have noticed fashion spreads becoming increasingly more violent all
the time.
to the point where they pose the women to look dead to sell clothing.
i have a folder i save it all in because i am studying it.
it is interesting to me how violence to women has now made it up the scale
to selling high fashion.
i wonder if these images really DO make women want to go out and buy those
shoes that are on the model posed as trash in a dumpster.
i think it must be working or they would not be still creating this.
so...that phenomena is very bizarre to me.
and i think it is perhaps a collective death wish on women's parts that we
wish to die because we have already been abused so much.
i know i certainly have been
handled by "authorities" in the manner depicted in those photos.
so i could relate to the photos and it made me cringe, but also just go wha?
it's something from the collective unconsciousness of a mass amount of people...and it's seeping through every crack it can find to make it's existence known...it is even turning now to fashion photography and seeping it's way there...even if the models, photographers, make up artists, advertisers, people who come up with these ideas are not even conscious about it.
it's saying...examine this...examine
this...examine this. wake up wake up wake up.
do you really want to die this way?
is this how you want to be treated?
it's some sort of death wish/rape fantasy or something.
screaming it's way through everything.
but most people still remain
"dead' to this.
so many people aren't really "alive"
or "aware"
so...i don't know who is questioning this.
a lot of the people in that community i have noticed are very self loathing
and extremeley judgmental, after a few years now of studying their reactions
to various things.
i find the reactions more
disturbing than i find the photos.
i think the reactions to those photos is what really needs to be examined
and questioned the most.
---
thankfully after all that i saw:
a very happy thing!
and now for something positive again.
this wonderful video made by halcyonpink
http://www.veoh.com/videoDetails.html?v=e116184nDDCf6hH
it inspires me and makes me yearn....
it will make you happy, too :)
the governments of the world will never kill the resilient human spirit that
chooses JOY over fear.
and here is just some goofiness:
ebay feedback
i put a link up here the other day to the feedback section of someone.
ah here it is: http://tinyurl.com/4kl72
and there is the most hilarious feedback on it ever :)
it was from 1999 mostly, i guess back then anyone could leave feedback, even
if you hadn't bought anything from them.
so this person just went hogwild on this poor ebayer's feedback section, but
good lord is it funny.
i have to find that link again, too....because the names this person would
pick were also hilarious.
anyway, i thought it was all so dang absurd and hilarious i saved it all.
