you may rely on the following news sites to keep you abreast of reality:
Lew Rockwell
Prison Planet
Anti War
You read those three each day and you will be the most informed person in the room.
I also suggest Jeff Rense. Bless his heart, but his site is a little on the kookie side. (Advertisements for psychic pills, stories about UFO's, etc. For all I know, those things could be true; they're not my field of expertise. But psychic pills and UFO's are not central to what I am covering. Don't let them prejudice anything else on the site. I read Rense for the over-the-horizon, Distant Early Warning radar stuff. Things I read there may not develop meaning for several weeks or months until the rest of reality "catches up." The Hive Mind cannot stand him. I don't think he's a big fan of Zionist barbarians.
You will be in good hands with these four sites.
By my calculations, I have not smoked or had a drink in a week. It's done. The spell is broken. I feel good, I sleep my five hours and awake refreshed, I go for a walk in the morning, and I'm no longer stressed out all the time. I have my plans for my chicken coop and I've got my garden ready to go.
I get pissy sometimes, I know that. I lash out when I think that I am not getting my due. If ever I was overbroad in my lashings, I apologize.
I am taking a different path now. I will not read newspapers, I will not watch television, and I will not use the internet. If you have a show or a column, I apologize: I will not see it ever again.
Please be well. And remember: Each of you, without exception, is a beautiful being of light. Conduct yourselves accordingly.
