Odd Locals

Posted by michellemoquin on May 10th, 2008

We went to the farmers market early this morning. Doug and get so used to going to Trader Joes and Whole Foods that we forget that our local farmer’s markets really do have the best in-season veggies and fruits.   And most importantly we are supporting the  local farms. Unfortunately as much as I like shopping in those two stores, it is sometimes hard to tell the difference between what is local and what is being shipped in, and at the Farmer’s market, there is no question.  The cool part about living in the Bay Area is that there is a farmer’s market almost every day of the week around here and the furthest one is only about 5 miles away. We are spoiled and I have been “big ‘L’, little ‘a’….”….you got the rest!

You see everything at the farmer’s market!  I just love it….they never throw away any fruit or veggie that is oddly shaped or strange looking.  Check out these that we saw this morning! :)

 

    Anything come to mind?     

How about these?      

 


If God is the creator of everything, which was created first? The Human form or..?

Now this one says it all!

 

Hi ZL: Thank you for what you said.  One of the things that I really like about this blog is that I am able to express myself freely and it is a venue for others to do as well. Because of the happenings here, I get to learn so much about my dearest old friends and my new friends too that I might not ever really know. I love the intimacy that is created.  Reading your comments and how you feel about me made my day this morning – so thank you. You know I am grateful for our friendship.  Oh…and in regards to the code…if you have to ask then you must not know ( tee hee! )  Or…maybe you are just foolin’ everyone :)

Hi Al:  I take it from your brief comment that maybe you were offended by my brief statement?  Sorry….If I sounded rude or anything in my comment to you yesterday…I meant it in a very light hearted, I’m over it kind of way, but maybe it didn’t come across that way :) My bad…Please accept my apologies; I was in a bit of a rush to post and I wanted to address everyone.  Maybe you were just in a rush too and I am making a big deal outta nothin’? AnywayI did like your comment though – funny…and very clever of you! 

Helloo Doug:  Looks like you have been having a most difficult time saying what you want to say…wha’at is up with that?!  The powers that be looking down on me…maybe we should write in code.

Readers: Lastly, let me just say this one thing:  I really do look forward to writing this blog every morning.  I have a connection with all of you that I am so grateful for…a connection that amazingly goes through the channels and is felt strongly here.  I appreciate every one of you that just reads at your leisure and of course I love hearing from the ones that write in as well.  It is a blog family. Hey do we need a family name? I don’t know how long this is going to last but my feeling is as long as you all are out there enjoying this little family I will be writing to keep us connected.  I started this blog in early July – It has been long and adventurous road with many interesting turns and a few dead ends….and we haven’t even been together for a year! I hope for the adventure to continue and grow into whatever is to be.  Okay…I guess I had more than one thing to say.  Now I must go….

Everyone:  Have a fruitful day! :)

Gratefully your blog host,

michelle  ?

    test -I have gotten many emails stating that they keep trying to blog and they are having the same problem as Doug.

    Your government is making a concerted effort to stop our correspondence. Shall we name the culprits?

    Sorry for the lack of notice, but we are performing some maintenance. Your dashboard is going to be unavailable for 8 mins.

    This is the message that we get when we try to make an entry. They are working very hard to find a way to discredit our information. i.e.

    The bush administration has been working very hard with their wealthy co-conspiritors to get the price of oil above $100.00 a barrel. This is the price they calculated that would make it economically feasible to reopen old oil projects in their respective states and to invest in new ones. Imagine their surprise when they discovered how easily it was to fool the people and how passively they accepted the price increases. Now they have been buoyed to continue profiteering at the expense of the gullible public.

    In the beginning they conspired to buy up all the competitive other energy sources and stop research in them or just keep them off the market. Bush helped by giving huge tax rebates and incentives to businesses big and small to purchase the SUV gas guzzlers.

    The war in Iraq was designed to create a huge oil vacuum and they encouraged the oil blocs to raise the price of oil so that they could begin to enter at huge profits while profiting on the OPEC increases. The america people pay to protect the shipping lines that OPEC uses to ship the oil and OPEC uses the money they save to fund terrorist activities around the globe.

    Homeland security gets to spend unlimited and unaccounted for moneys to protect against this “terror.” And the america people get to give up more and more of their constitutional rights to receive these “terror” protections.

    The republicans get to remind the people that they are protecting them against those “terrors.” Here the people must let them use as much government intervention in any part of their lives as the republicans deem necessary. But when it comes to protecting them against the terror practiced against them by the Insurance Industry, the Banking Industry, the Food Industry, They Credit Industry, the Energy Industry, the Mortgage Industry, etc, the republicans tell them that they need LESS government interference.

    Can americans really be that dumb? Is there something in the water? Or is it true that you only have to give that portion of the population with penis envy a gun substitute or a religion that makes them head of the household because “god” says so cause to feel that their gun or religious doctrine will be tampered with to stay in power? How pathetic!

    The food Pacs can now introduce cloning because the engineered shortages of food will make the public more acceptable of them. Some of these foods will include special markers. These markers are designed to the consumers of their products in ways their scientists tell them they are capable of. The consequences will be dire.

    Profit from these new foods will be huge for the companies. They will jockey among themselves to gain greater control of their markets and each will jump to cooperate with the government scientists to gain a market advantage.

    Soon the government will act to appease the greedy by telling those blue-collar workers who believe that they can share the american get-rich-dream by investing in the stock market’s gas companiest that they benefit from high gas prices in the form or dividends.

    You will hear fox news come out with various break downs on where the price of gas goes. It will portray the oil companies as good corporations and as companies who are making reasonable profits for their blue-collar investors. The message will essentially be “invest in oil companies and get rich. ”

    The present party has been on a mission to corner the energy and food market in America. They have almost complete control over the judicial branch. They have appointed the most corrupt set of federal assistant attorney generals in the history of the republic.

    They operate to instill fear in the opposition by using the internal revenue service, the federal investigative branch, the drug enforcement and homeland security offices to investigate every aspect of their lives and their friends and families lives.

    In the coming months they will indite many of Obama’s supporters via one or more of the above offices. Some times they will use the office of homeland security to pass on the information to law enforcement at the state level to divert attention from their activities.

    Race – They have put the message out for white cops to intentionally beat and shoot black suspects. They are aware of how the white blue collar people love their cops and they hope to draw Obama into making a statement against those cops brutality. They will use his comments to emphasize that the race for the white house is about black rights against the established white man’s rights.

    McCain’s wife and family are so heavily invested in the energy, food, and military industrial complex that profits on war that she can not reveal her tax returns.

    This group of power brokers has invested so much in taking the white house this time that they have several contingent plans should Obama appear to gain the office of president. NOTHING as they say is off the table.

    Class, religion, race, criminal charges, civil charges, sex scandals, murder(this has already started), kidnapping, non-stop fox and other news outlets, whatever it takes will be employed to secure control of the white house.

    The coming months will be very very interesting. It seems that this group believes that the america populace is too dumb or too greedy to put two and two together to get four. Witness the silence about bush an oil family president giving incentives to businesses to buy gas guzzlers. No out cry by the media. The mention of building economic zones in Baghdad costing billions when billions are missing for projects that have been proposed some started in Iraq and abandoned, some not even started, but the billions of dollars provided for them remain missing. No out cry from the media.

    Deregulating the media and allowing their cronies to buy up and control it with horizontal and vertical monopolies has enabled the republican party to control what the public hears and how they react to it. They intend to prove Lincoln wrong when he said that “You can fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the time, but you can not fool all the people all the time.”

    I look forward to the ensuing chaos. We will feed well. Especially because these greedy people have not considered the degree of hatred they have engendered with the muslins, chinese, and russians. While they will have control over most of the american people, the rest of the world will close in on the in a most interesting way.

    Most americans have no idea what it means to share a border with another sovereign power. The white man in america is used to the affirmative action that he benefits from every day. Imagine his surprise when he has to compromise and/or cede outright to other competing opinions and ideas.

    The next few months will be most interesting. I look forward to the resulting carnage. After all it will have been earned by the greedy power brokers and the greedy section of the populace that put them in power.

    I continue to remind my colleagues. We do not have to violate any non-interference pact. These humans will destroy themselves. Food will be food.

    Gleia.

    Hi Michelle, I would like to let you know that I tried to get on your blog several times yeasterday via several ISP’s but received a message that there was no such blog.

    I immediately thought that you skipped town. Perhaps the Government got to me by trying to make me believe your blog didn’t exist anymore.

    It worked. I E-Mailed you and said my goodbyes, thinking you were really gone – but here you are, so screw them.

    HOWIE

  6. HOWIE Says:

    Dear Gleia, it is good to communicate with you today. I have been made aware of a Man named Goodyear who Sends money to Juntas all over the World. These Juntas keep their People under terror and kill thousands at a time – All under the Christian Umbrella. These Juntas are the Bad Guys.

    Therefore the Cyclone in Burma ended Goodyear’s Long-distance support for Burmese Militia groups. He is in bed with many other underworld Leaders who keep their People terrorized including Drug Cartels.

    Therefore there were many reasons for the Cyclone to manifest. There was much to clean up in that area of the World.

    I understand that there is much more to navigating Space, Navigating the web and dealing with our Government, which fears your group enough to block communication on this blog.

    I wonder how many people who were turned away from commenting or even reading the blog? How many were intimidated by this ploy?

    I would love to hear more from you, Gleia. I will not be intimidated by the blog malfunctioning. I will try again.

    I hope others are not deterred from commenting. The blog is alive and well. Keep reading and commenting.

    HOWIE

  7. Doug Says:

    Gleia,
    Thank you so much for the insight. I would think, if people were truly patriots, they would question authority as it is the first and foremost freedom to our government. Or at least it used to be until this administration decided to be able to jail anyone without cause under the guise of possible terrorist connections.

    I get so tired of hearing things like this and the amerikan people NOT buying into the fact that this is happening. They feel that their government would not do that to them…

    When will the amerikan people wise up and see their demise created by the large multinational corporations. It is a simple as the spraying that is being attempted on the northern Californian areas for some moth that has done NO damage…But, they will spray anyway, and not over crop areas but over residential areas…

    My whole life I have been labeled as a conspiracy theorist. I call myself a somewhat enlightened, educated, political realist. Funny how the power of the “freedom of the press” or at least the corporate press can make our public blind to the realism of what is really going on in their lives. It is quite sad.

    When the world is such a small place that people will read the newspaper rather than go out into the world and see what is really going on to them and by their elected, or shall I say coup positioned administrations. I am guessing that Florida will become another problematic state in this coming election as Jeb is still around. By the way, what ever happened to the “other Bush” who pilfered all of the money from the public cofferes through the S&L problem back in the 80′s. This family has continually financially raped and pillaged the tax payers while making sure that their handouts to the corporate elite have been able to stifle the truth for many many years and more to come it seems…

  8. Doug Says:

    Once again I will tout an amazing book called “Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets” by Bonner and Rajiva.

    You can find it at this link on Amazon:
    http://www.amazon.com/dp/0470112328?tag=wwwmindbodypo-20&camp=14573&creative=327641&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0470112328&adid=1X0XCNQ5CKMBB1CCD74R&

    This talks directly about how the politicians and press are able to conveniently and programatically blind the public from truth using the public’s own fear based, viral mentality.

    It’s simple human nature…
