Bff Reports ...003 Rest Stop*


Black-footed Ferret Reports: 
Dispatch 3 from DumbFuck Nation, United States of Absurdia 

I drove too much, too late, I vowed to get my resting spot about 4PM, now I’m driving around dark Santa Fe, tired and road hypnotized looking for a safe landing. I chose a risky spot on a residential side street. Strange van, CA plates might get a phone call to the police. I was tired and took a chance, parked. I tried to stay under radar. 

I got 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep. As soon as the morning light came shining through, I was on my way. 


At the Speedway for gas and breakfast a little later, I found my first human encounter with a gentleman living in the Taos Pueblo. We got to laughing together at the silliness of the square on the floor and the bossy female managers' very cursive signs about “So Sorry for the Inconvenience”. We were goofing like schoolboys as we moved up a square at a time. Then he said, “The State said they would de-fund the Pueblo if we did not comply with the lock-down. I remember the Hanta virus, where were they then?” The Hanta virus ran through this area in the mid-90’s and killed hundreds. I met him later in the day, by chance, and we had another good laugh over the stupidity of it all. Sanity recognizes each other, I believe. 

Along the road a Jiffy Lube was offering Free WiFi and I had to catch up with some mail and news. I parked next to the building and as the two fellas showed up for work, they were accommodating as could be, even brought me coffee. More humanity, not everyone is a DFian. Figuring I would be driving a few more thousand miles, an oil change and inspection might be a good thing. 

I drove about 60 miles towards Taos and came upon a boat launch into the Quartzite River. It was 10:30 AM, but when I found a parking spot tucked under the road, under the trees, out of the wind, with a picnic table, I knew I was there all day and night. I needed good rest. 


I was living my idol’s life – living in a van down by the river. 

I did some yoga, played my guitar, wrote HEAD FOR THE HILLS, read my book on Katrina, The Great Deluge and took a good long look at a map. I’m glad I did because I found my next destination – Corona, New Mexico! 

I watched the blood red full moon rise up over the hills and went to sleep for the night.  The Passover week and Good Friday symbolism spooked the hell out of me.

Dispatch 4 of the Black-footed ferret Reports in DumbFuck Nation coming soon…

COVID: The projection of a mass illusion 

In his 1976 film masterpiece, Network, Paddy Chayefsky’s unhinged newsman, Howard Beale, broadcasts this message to his audience on national television—

“So, you listen to me. Listen to me! Television is not the truth. Television’s a god-damned amusement park. Television is a circus, a carnival, a traveling troupe of acrobats, storytellers, dancers, singers, jugglers, sideshow freaks, lion tamers, and football players. We’re in the boredom-killing business… We deal in illusions, man. None of it is true! But you people sit there day after day, night after night, all ages, colors, creeds. We’re all you know. You’re beginning to believe the illusions we’re spinning here. You’re beginning to think that the tube is reality and that your own lives are unreal. You do whatever the tube tells you. You dress like the tube, you eat like the tube, you raise your children like the tube. You even think like the tube. This is mass madness. You maniacs. In God’s name, you people are the real thing. We are the illusion.”

Just A Day At Work*


I worked over twenty years on many construction jobsites. I used a portable plastic shithouse every day, several times a day, sharing it with, sometimes, 100’s of men. Always disgusting, at the refineries some were neglected for months it seemed. This was through the AIDS/HIV epidemic, several Hepatitas B and C alerts, and, of course, flu season every winter. No one thought anything was unusual otherwise conditions would have changed. 

Early in one project I was given the assignment to install the emergency lights about 15 feet above the “Siamese” water connection. In every commercial building this exists on the ground floor by a parking lot or alley, very accessible. The fire engine is needed, the firemen connects the hoses to the “Siamese” connection. The blinking lights I was installing was to call to the incoming fire truck and promote efficiency delivering the water onto the fire. Hmmm, I said. 

“You mean we have water in this building?” 

“Sure, it’s the first thing installed. The Fire Department and insurance company wouldn’t allow us to work here without it. It wouldn’t be safe.” 

“We could build a place with porcelain toilets and sinks with running water to wash our hands?” 

“That isn’t in the General Contractor’s bid.” 

“With plumbers, carpenters, electricians and laborers on sight, we have to use the portable plastic shithouses through the entirety of this project?”

“Yeah. You know how it is.”

Until someone tells me otherwise, that is the condition today.

********************************

You know who is going to make out on this phony pandemic? Plumbers. The current joke is how much they cost for their services. Now you want them to come in your house and replace your broken toilet or clean your drain or sewer pipe? They are going to charge you up the ying/yang. You go Brothers, take advantage of the fearful. Don’t begrudge you a bit. Shear them sheep.

***********************

I'm currently reading a book on Hurricane Katrina and the Gulf Coast 2005.  The storm just happened, and the Coast Guard and volunteer rescue and recovery missions are being sent into New Orleans.  There isn't a mention of worry about the germ safety to the first responders.  Wading titty deep in sewer water, unknown chemicals, sludge, mud, it seems the human body is pretty resilient.  Typhoid, dysentery, cholera are all known pathogens, the people in a REAL life catastrophe acted with bravery, endurance and compassion, not worrying a scant.

The Federal Government fell flat on their faces.  Disorganized, a week or more of time to respond.  FEMA's  response was pathetic.

Now the G seems to be totally on top of the situation fighting an invisible bugaboo.

Perhaps there is a Malthusian aspect and the flu is supposed to take away our sick, elderly and weak. The flu kills thousands of unhealthy people every year.

Why would anyone think the G cares?  Have they ever told you the Truth?

Corona: creating the illusion of a pandemic through diagnostic tests 
by Jon Rappoport

In this article, I’ll present quotes from official sources about their own diagnostic test for the coronavirus. I’m talking about fatal flaws in the test.

Because case numbers are based on those tests (or no tests at all), the whole “pandemic effect” has been created out of fake science.

In a moment of truth, a propaganda pro might murmur to a colleague, “You know, we’ve got a great diagnostic test for the virus. The test turns out all sorts of results that say this person is diseased and that person is diseased. Millions of diseased people. But the test doesn’t really measure that. The test is ridiculous, but ridiculous in our favor. It builds the picture of a global pandemic. An excuse to lock down the planet and wreck economies and lives…”
