Greece has good food. It’s a very religious country, with strong traditions. At least that’s the stereotype, that and the cash discount to beat the taxman.
Qui bono? When does a bird stop singing? When it’s a dead canary in a coal mine.
That’s G-P for ya.
I was in USN decades ago, but never used a rifle or even a sidearm. Not even in basic. The day they handed out the M-1 rifles for drill practice I got transferred to battalion HQ. Still, all those years aboard ship I never saw a sailor using a rifle. We had Marines for that.
Prompted by these comments began viewing. 2 eps in its mildly amusing, and flashy, but it’s just sci-fi. For instance I kinda liked da Vinci Code (the book) but it’s not really history.
This guy was 94. It’s unlikely he was visualizing a ‘countdown clock’ but who knows?
The original idea was news and information untainted by corporate influence. That was the cover story wen people were suspicious of business but trusted government. A more innocent time..
PBS did do some cool stuff 50 years ago. You weren’t going to find Dr. Who anywhere else. Also they were among the pioneers of HDTV. As a television systems engineer I saw the transition from Black and White TV to NTSC color, and then to 1080 HDTV over the air and it wouldn’t have happened without PBS so now you can watch 1950s B&W classics in a crystal clear 422 colorspace high resolution MPEG compressed multiplex signal on the UHF band, but hardly anyone does…. Even Grandma’s streaming ROKU.

Genie grants man one wish, with proviso his ex gets double. “Beat me half to death” he requests.
Is anything sketchy not the intel agencies? Seems not. It’s not not them ever.
It’s not the same. I stand corrected. Was it Bill Casey?
Video data compression artifacts. MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group) Video has flaws that occasionally show up. Revealed objects for instance. Like a moving soccer ball that’s momentarily hidden behind a passing vehicle will appear to materialize out of thin air after the vehicle has passed by. Sometimes resolution drops off sharply for instance in a field of waving grain, or in a pan across a crowd. It’s miraculous video can be “streamed” at all, and MPEG compression is responsible, but it’s not perfect. Neither is human vision. Consider the data density of a single frame of 35mm film. (Upwards of 1Mb) Imagine the bandwidth required to transmit 24/sec of those. You’d need a really big pipe. So they just encode the differences between frames. That’s compression in a nutshell. Our brains are amazing, but also prone to making something out of nothing.
This guy thinks.
Not sure which See Eye Eh chief said it but to paraphrase ‘When the American people don’t know what to believe our job is done.”
So, mission accomplished?
I recall reading some years ago about a series of collisions with US Navy vessels and commercial freighters being attributed to Chinese supplied circuit boards with “extra components”.
Is it true? IDK. Is it ongoing? Probably, but who’s behind it? Again, how would anyone know.

The Bible refers to them a publicans.
Because income tax is deferred on retirement savings taking it out before retirement means it’s income, and you pay income tax, but there’s also a 20% penalty, so taking out 80 costs you 40 to IRS.
‘23 as well. This one tracks the opposite direction so the tracks intersect I think in southern Illinois for the ‘17 and somewhere in central west Texas for the ‘23. I looked it up. Easy to find.
Oddly, I recently saw a Utube video of a NDE (near death experience) where he mentioned seeing something about 4/8 and the eclipse, especially the intersection of tracks from ‘17 while “out of body”, but he wasn’t sure what it meant. Sorta X marks the spot was his comment. Said he didn’t want to start a panic but maybe prep just a bit?
Of course these astronomical alignments provide fodder for fables, but equinoctial precession is scary kooky imho. Except there’s no clear delineation between zodiacal constellations, so when does age of Pisces end and Aquarius begin? Are times unsettled due to proximity of cusp? Or is it just a coincidence? I just humbly await SMOD.
Waco anyone?
May their capture dissuade copycats. Amen
He claimed in 2015/16 not to be pro Trump, but predicted he’d win through persuasion. Constantly praised Trumps technique.
Said then politically he was “left of Bernie”
and was no republican. Maybe now that he’s no longer hostage to newspapers as they’ve all dropped his comic, he can speak more freely. Maybe he’s really waking up. Millions have and more will. Mike Benz reaches him. Benz doesn’t opine, he states facts. He is a gleeful hoax buster, which I do enjoy.
I think he’s a flawed human, like all of us, but he’s too proud of himself to ever even acknowledge his Creator, much less beg for mercy, much as I was before my own utterly unlikely conversion. The Simulation trope is a cop out. He worships his own image, and indulgently sneers at believers, again, much as I did at one time not that long ago. Trump invited him to the White House in 2017. Maybe he stays in touch.
Just who was Wild Bill?
Old people (if they’ve got any sense) don’t squander their money. Their heirs will.
But somebody has to protect you from being radicalized and who better than the Atlantic Council?
Shocked! I’m shocked, I say, to find our ministry of information and ministry of state security secret police have merged and disguised themselves as “free services”.
Wherever would they get the idea to do such a thing?
Can confirm.
