Open thread for Sunday, September 28th: The Walk
Here is the open thread for Sunday, September 28th. Please feel free to post links to interesting articles and to discuss whatever issues arise during the course of the day. Nothing is off-topic here.
After a few slow weeks it picked up a bit last week and we discussed another eight stories at America’s Watchtower. Did you miss any of them? If so there is an easy way to make sure you do not miss another post. I understand that all of you are busy and cannot always find the time to check the blog for updates so why not subscribe to America’s Watchtower and receive email updates whenever I write a new post? That is the easiest way to follow the blog to ensure you never miss another post.
In addition to subscribing you can also follow America’s Watchtower on Facebook and Twitter by clicking the links on the right. But you will get more than that for I often post links to articles I probably will not be writing about so it is a great way to keep up with what is happening.
The Twitter widget in the sidebar is fully interactive. This widget updates my tweets in real time and allows you to respond to or retweet my tweets right from the blog. It also allows you to tweet me right from America’s Watchtower. How cool is that! If you do not have a Twitter account what better reason do you need to sign up for one!?
This week’s musical selection is The Cure performing their song entitled ‘The Walk’ on MTV Unplugged from 1991, complete with kazoos.

Interesting song and I fear we are going to see more of these riot squads in the future.

“The New American has released a new video breaking down The Competitive Enterprise Institute’s annual “Ten Thousand Commandments” report which has concluded that federal regulations cost the economy $1.863 trillion in fiscal year 2013 alone!” from ‘The Completely Insane Cost of Federal Regulations: $2 TRILLION’ Truth Stream Media
[God only gave Moses 10 Commandments, which are broken daily because by the human nature – Explains why these Fed regulations are taken out in monetary form in taxation to keep people in compliance!]
A 1/4th of a family’s income goes into paying these regulations, by purchases made (having no idea where the money’s going, what it’s for, or the outcome) – compliments of Congress looking out for our best interest!
At the end of the vid the commenter states if “we’re not holding our Congressmen accountable for this” (who continue to fund these agencies), we’re partly to blame. I question the validity of that. Is that really ‘true’ today? If a significant number of people did contact their Congressman/women in each state to stop this, would they? We’ve discuss the reality of this before Steve in your blog: how these Congress men & women are sold out (bought or blackmailed) and do not Represent us as they ‘swore to do’. The only way to get them to do their job right, might entail breaking one of God’s simple 10 Commandments!

Wow! However, we have little we can do to stop it. Talk to your Senator/Representative? Sure, as if it will help. As we have said before, there are only a handful we put in office that are actually doing as we ask them, the rest are bought and paid for in a short time of taking office. That was interesting, Zip, glad you found it. I feel so much better knowing how much of my money goes for these regulations (on top of what we pay the state to support the low life benefit suckers on welfare)! No wonder we cannot afford any luxuries or trips now days. I guess we just go into debt and do the things we want, while we are still able to travel from state to state without showing papers (oh, I forgot, only law abiding citizens will have to do that).

Yep, not a day brightener for sure. One or two eggs can’t make an omelet taste good if the rest of the eggs are rotten. This Agenda will end up making the dark ages seem ‘okay’. ‘Soylent Green’ is coming to mind ~ mixed w/ a bit of ‘Clockwork Orange’ / Blade Runner.

For any fellow drinkers, thought this might interest some of you. There are a few of them I would like to visit just to soak up the atmosphere:

I scrolled down to see where the oldest bar in New Hampshire is and I am ashamed to admit I don’t know where Hancock is but it was interesting to learn the only president from NH had been there.

It had the pic above where it said it was, so not the usual order something is in, but I found it interesting. I like seeing alot of the old pubs with the brick walls and the beautiful carved wooden bars with alot of years of wear on them. I am seeing a couple “road trips” for us in the near future!

That was interesting. I lived in Golden, CO (Jr. High & High Sch.) and never saw that building. I thought it had to be in another town! Golden’s changed a lot (use to be a functional downtown, now a hip tourist place). I guess that was the only street I never walked or drove down … strange, how could that be! Some neat places they found and wrote about!
There’s a ‘Mint Bar’ in Sheridan, WY that’s made out of the cedar (hauled in the mt.s some ways away from the town). The builders were hunters and outdoors men, so there’s some different displays of their journeys (6′ rattlers snake skin behind the bar), plus a wood slat wall w/ all the different Rancher’s brands from around the area. Pretty neat, and creative the way they used the twisted cedar to make the bar and booths.
