John Lash & The Master & Margarita

An upbeat talk with John Lash on Radio Free Humanity with Frater X. Despite the visual I've used, it's not all about control freaks, but as the FBI is now trying to stifle the ten percent of the population who reject the 911 commission report by labelling them as terrorists  it's a useful time to revisit The Washington Posts unprecedented two year investigation into the security state. 

The findings summary is concise and plain enough evidence that the NSA, DHS, CIA, FBI and the other 1200 alphabet soup agencies (not including the 1900 private companies) are delusional at best.

A few hours spent with widely available documentation on who funds war, and who gets to put their snouts in the trough from it is hardly a crime scene so complex nobody can figure it out.

John name checks Bulgakov's The Master & Margarita in this talk. Chapter 2: Pontius Pilate is my all time favourite chapter of any book.

LinkedIn

I've been sending out the email below all morning, and I thought I'd put it here too. There's an amusing Montaigne essay from this episode that wants to be written but right now wouldn't be prudent.

Hello

If you received a Linkedin invite you are one of a hundred or so other people who were invited without my involvement or consent.

I haven't established the exact cause but an early guess is an unauthorized auto invite/add addresses script was invoked or alternatively my account was hacked.

Sincerely

Charles Frith

Help. My Cock's On Fire

Back when I wrote my statistical bias post I thought I could use Google Insights to track the Mayan eschatological 2012 calendar meme by planet and country. What I didn't factor in was people Googling 2012 not for esoterica but because it was the actual date. I lose sight of the details sometimes. 

Did I mention my cocks on fire? Yeah baby.
