A boy left his bike chained to a tree when he went away to war in 1914. He never returned, leaving the tree no choice but to grow around the bike.

Isn’t this interesting? Basically, what I’m thinking happens is that as the layers of the tree build and build and build, the bike gets encased. You can tell that its been awhile because the bike is not only close to the center of the tree but it seems that there’s a substantial height from the ground. Cool huh?

A friend of mine (whose wedding blog you can follow here) tells a story about being at a conference one time and accidentally running into — like literally turning around and bumping — Ron Paul.  He looked at her, said “I’m looking for cookies,” and walked away.

FIJA: Fully Informed Jury Association

Okay, so you’re called into jury duty and your first thought is… 

A. “I hope I get pay for the time I miss at work.” 

B. “I’m going to be so bored.” 

C. “I hope I can just get out of it.” 

D. All of the above. 

And all of those are perfectly acceptable responses according to society. Jury duty is something to dread, and something to mock. Now, don’t get me wrong, I do not go around sitting in a sterile rooms with almost convicted felons for fun. However, your duty is your privilege as an American citizen; when you begin to give up or neglect this duty, you will lose the privilege. 

The Fully Informed Jury Association is committed to helping those who do receive the privilege know their rights as a juror

FIJA Works to: 

Inform potential jurors of their traditional, legal authority to refuse to enforce corrupt laws; 

Inform potential jurors that they cannot be required to check their conscience at the courthouse door;

Inform potential jurors that they cannot be punished for their verdict; 

Inform everyone that juror veto—juror nullification—is a peaceful way to protect human rights against corrupt politicians and government tyranny.

News Article: Obama signs executive order that gives him right to enact Martial Law during peaceful times

This is a completely HEINOUS act. I mean, if we can’t impeach this guy for this, we’ll never get anything passed. This has honestly reached the point of no return, and as pessimistic as that sounds, it seems to be true. The public needs to be made AWARE of this stuff. I don’t hate Barack Obama because he is black. I don’t hate Barack Obama because he is a Democrat. I don’t hate Barack Obama because he is President and Ron Paul isn’t. I hate him because of what he’s done. He’s taken George W. Bush’s idiotic, self-sustaining, one world government agenda ideals and morphed them into a complete New World Order. Quit looking at the bumper stickers. Quit looking at the mainstream media. If you actually follow this guy, you’ll see how incredibly hypocritical this (for lack of a better term) man is. He has taken everything he said he would do and done the opposite. Heck, I used to support this guy. I was all for America stepping up, getting over its inability to see past color, until I looked at his voting record. If you vote for him just because he’s black you are just as racist as the people who don’t vote for him because he’s black. 

Don’t be fooled! There is an agenda, a plan, to bring down America, its economy, and its people. Barack Hussein Obama is a part of it.

In this new video (YouTube link), Kony 2012 mastermind Jason Russell can be heard ranting to himself, dropping F-bombs, clapping to no one in particular, and shouting about the devil. 

MKULTRA? Look it up, folks. This guy is a classic case, which just proves that this Kony ploy is just a distraction, a plot to keep us occupied with warmongering. Don’t be fooled. 

It’s amazing what the creative mind is capable of.
