 Cannabis: A History by Martin BoothMy rating: 4 of 5 starsThere were areas I wish he would have went more in depth with, like how the coffeehouse scene in Holland came into existance and other areas I wasn't as interested in, like hippy pop culture. Also he overemphasizes a lot of things that went on in Britain, which historicly isn't exactly the epicenter for Marijuana activity and culture. The author isn't a stoner, or at least doesn't come off as one, but he seems to be pro-Cannabis at least to the extent of showing the stupidity of the law enforcement witchhunts against what is more or less a harmless "drug". Overall a good general history of Cannabis. View all my reviews >> Russian Myths by Elizabeth WarnerMy rating: 4 of 5 starsReally just as much about Russian Pagan beliefs, Gods, folklore and folk custom as much as any Russian mythological system. Its a short and basic book but is also full of nice illustrations. This seems to me like a very good introductory book for someone studying this books subject matter. I look forward to reading more about the Slavic interpretations of the Indo-European Gods in the future. View all my reviews >> Conspiracy Theories by Kate TuckettMy rating: 2 of 5 starsThis book is listings of various common and some maybe not so common because I haven't heard many of these, conspiracy theories. The explanations are very short, basic, and thats short basic as in 1-3 page large print in a dime store paperback sized overviews of everything from JFK, 9-11, to conspiracy theories about The Smurfs cartoon. To state the obvious I can't recomend this to anybody that likes to do real conspiracy research but I also don't think I'd send somebody to this book who has a vague interest or to wake somebody either.

Me doing pullups. I did 29 that set. Not bad considering I'm pushing 40, I have a minor nagging shoulder injury and I'm not a small guy either. My personal record for one set is 35 although I don't train for maximum rep pullups. I just like to have them in the mix of my routine. I mainly use bodyweight exercises for strength endurance and to improve recovery rates because I rest very little between sets. I also like to do a lot of variations of the pullup, not just the basic pullup. Honestly I think if I specificly trained for max rep pullups I think I could get well into the 40s. I feel pretty good about how I am able to perform physically at an age when most people have long since went downhill. In fact I don't even think I've reached my peak yet to be honest. I still find ways to improve myself as an athlete. I can still put myself through workouts that unless your an elite level athlete or a Navy Seal would possibly literally kill most people. I can still get in the ring with young tough guys and not only hold my own but take their ass to school. But the point of this post really isn't to toot my own horn or any lameness along those lines. I recently ran across some pictures online of some sort of reunion with a bunch of people who I went to school with many years ago. I hadn't seen any of these people in 15-20 years and I couldn't believe how so many of them had mutated into such fat grotesque creatures that were barely recognizable when compared to what they once were. A lot aged, bald, and above all FAT fucks. The women faired a little better but in many cases it was just as drastic. I was like did some of these people mutate or what? I had to laugh at some of these people standing around drinking beer trying to act like they are cool or some shit. Don't get me wrong, I think narcism is lame. I exercise to improve my athletic performance and for the health benefits that it brings, if it makes me look better then great, but thats not what motivates me. You can go into any fitness center or weightlifting gym and find plenty of impressive looking people who can't perform athleticly or in a real world practical sense. I've seen mutant looking bodybuilders who couldn't do six fucking pullups, much less run a circuit of windsprints or do 100 burpees. No matter what we do age catches up with us all eventually and we all have instincts that lead us to laziness and gluttony at times. I actually think its ok to be lazy and let yourself eat like a pig on occasion. I realize its unrealistic for the average person to be able to put themselves through the kind of shit I put myself through but Jesus fucking Christ some people have no self disipline or pride in themself.

Legalize It -Another pro-legalize Marijuana in Denmark editorial. Positive for sure but the person who wrote it says some false things about Marijuana in the editorial. It does not induce convulsions and it heightens the senses, not dulls them. I want a Amsterdam like coffeehouse scene here! Maybe we are not the happiest after all -That 60 minutes report and the study it was based on were so bogus. Danes are NOT the happiest people in the world. In fact I'd say there are many that are quite miserable. Even the egghead that did this scam study said his rationale for coming to this conclusion was that Danes are happy because they have low expectations of life and therefore don't suffer any great disappointments!!! Ha ha! Go figure. Scandinavian countries have one of, if not the, highest suicide rates in the world. There are also a lot of closet basketcases who only seem to have it together on the surface here trust me. Where teenage drunkenness is most prevelant -Denmark is of course at the top of the list. When the Danish kids graduate high school they ride around on these big trucks screaming honking the horn and going around to each others homes where the parents load the kids up on booze and this goes on for days. This year it seemed like it was more low key but its still constant screaming and honking in the streets. Danes fear race riots will be triggered by gang warfare -Realisticly the non Danes wouldn't even win the battle of Nørrebro if serious race riots jumped off here. I'm in Nørrebro more or less every day, which is where shit would initially jump off, and I live in the second most likely part of Copenhagen for something like that to happen and even in those areas Danes are still the majority and there are lots of tough working class Danes who will be able to deal with shit if it gets really nasty. That being said the racial element of the gang warfare is way overplayed considering the Danish group at the forefront of this has no problem wheeling and dealing and associating with immigrant criminals when its to their advantage. Veiled woman removed from bus in Denmark -The main reason for this is your picture is on your bus pass so whose to say she could have anybodies bus pass and not her own. That being said I see fully veiled women on the bus all the time and as far as I know they just wave them on through normally. Bjerregaard not standing again -The article is 3-4 months old but all I can say is mainly thanks to all the gangster warfare in Copenhagen while she was mayor this cunts political career has been hurt if not ruined. Im all for it because its known she has attended Bilderberg meetings which means the new world order was grooming her for much bigger things. Dane appeals codein sentence -55 year old Danish woman goes to Cambodia to buy almost nearly 11,000 codein pills, tries to mail them to Denmark while still in Cambodia. I can only imagine how fucked up the conditions in a Cambodian prison are. Its 1932 in Europe -Another link thats several months old. Its pics from an a pro-Israel and counter demonstration in Denmark. The commentary is very neo-connish but the pics are interesting I think. Note that the supposedly "far right", Danish nationalist anti-immigration party (Dansk Folk Party) is there supporting the Jews and Israel. Dansk Folk Party are phony controlled oppostion. Don't trust them and don't vote for them if your Danish because they are there to do nothing to keep Denmark Danish. Prabhakaran family questions death -Family members of the allegedly dead Tamil Tigers leader who live in Denmark question whether or not he is really dead. Tags: cannabis, denmark, news

Well I have another reason to love living in Denmark. Its looking like there MIGHT (I give it a 50-50 chance) end up being a coffehouse scene here like in Amsterdam. A lot of the high level politicians are publicly supporting the idea, which has been put in the forefront by the constant murders and shootings of and by gang members in Copenhagen. There were two just last week and this hits home a lot more in Copenhagen because for one, while there are areas that are worse than others, this kind of stuff isn't confined to "ghetto" areas like in the states. The Danes also have a very strong communal we are all in this together attitude about how the society and governments should be run and are just out and out practical about things. This is why you have what I would consider extreme right wing and extreme left wing policies on various issues within the government. In other words whatever works best. But the biggest thing is people here just love to smoke reefer and hash, Danes from all levels of society just love to get fucked up and don't have the usual guilt complexs associated with having a good time. Just the other day in my Danish class about 40% of the class, and all of us from white countries, including the teacher, all admitted that they go to Christiana to buy weed and hash! Its not like I can't already get top notch shit, but if they have the coffeehouses the prices will drop for one, and there will be even more variety with the weed. People are much more hash oriented here. You can go to a dope dealer and I've seen them have as much as 10 different kinds of hash but only one type of weed. I've yet to ever run across any weed since I've been here that wasn't top notch but you probably get more bang for the buck with hash I'm still much more weed oriented. Not that all the best strains aren't easy to get here but it would be nice to be able to choose from 10 different kinds of weed like in Amsterdam every time I picked some up. Even as it is now the police do not go after casual users. They do nothing if they catch you with 5 grams or less. If you get caught with more than that they still may not do anything and if they do they write you a ticket and you have to pay a hundred dollar fine. You can more or less say your not going to go to jail here for Marijuana or Hashish unless your dealing. Another thing is there would be a massive amount of tourist money come into Copenhagen if they legalized and allowed something like in Amsterdam. Sorry Denmark but The Little Mermaid is lame. City Trying to "hash out" pot issue -The article is in English. København vil legalisere hash! -Thats a quote from the Mayor in the headline. Article er på Dansk. Potskæv Bubber tosset rundt i Thy -Just another example of how things rule in Denmark that they will even do stuff like this on the tv news. They send a reporter to some old hippie who gives him some weed brownies and he gets totally baked. They film it and put it on the news just because its funny as fuck. Of course they speak Danish but watch it anyway because its so damn funny how fried the reporter gets. Well off to the soccer field with my dog to do circuits of wind sprints and pullups. When I get back I will be firing up some AK-47 to cap off the night. Tags: cannabis, denmark

 The Hound and the Hawk: The Art of Medieval Hunting by John G. Cummins My review rating: 4 of 5 stars Cummins does a very good job with this book. Using the old sources he really paints a grand picture of hunting in medieval Europe. At times like a wild primal dangerous adventure and at times a casual sporting event where even the ladies tagged along and men and women often snuck off for a discreet tryst in the forest during the course of the hunt. He also covers the types of hounds and hawks used during the hunts, the various types of game that were hunted as well as the techniques used to catch them. I really enjoyed this book.

Frame-Up: The Martin Luther King-James Early Ray Case by Harold Weisberg My review rating: 3 of 5 stars I don't think Weisberg gets everything right in this but he does a good job of showing (in a boring way) the impossibility of the official accepted government version of what went down with the Martin Luther King assassination. I think what really happened is up for debate but I don't believe for one second that James Earl Ray, who never struck me as being the brightest lightbulb in the box, pulled this off himself and there were no co-conspirators. Maybe he was a mindwashed Manchurian candidate, maybe he was manipulated by others into committing the act and maybe he was a totally innocent scapegoat. The only thing I am sure of is that Ray was not a lone wolf assassin, even if it was actually him that pulled trigger and committed the actual act. The easy and predictable route for people to take is to claim Ray was mixed up with some sort of racist Klan types but I see more of a US Government involvement in this. They had good reason to want King dead because he had began to shift his activism from the forced race mixing, which the system promotes, to workers rights and protesting the Vietnam war. The system of course making money from the Vietnam war and exploiting workers it was only a matter of time that a leader with as much power and charisma as King had was going to get iced by the system. Its actually a shame they killed him because although I consider King to be a total scumbag he was actually in a position where he may have actually finally done a lot of good if he had lived.

Conditioning for Rugby League by John Kear My review rating: 2 of 5 stars I will preclude this by saying I am not a rugby player, and to be honest don't even have a decent knowledge of the game even from a fans perspective. However I am an athlete and avid fitness fanatic so I am always looking for new ideas and ways to improve my conditioning. Rugby players always seemed to me like they were in top notch condition in an all around functional way so I figured this book may be a good one to look at to learn a few new things. I mainly judge this book for what is in it thats useful for me. That would be the plyometrics and the wind sprint/interval running drills. Really nothing new I learned there but those things are what is most useful for me out of whats in this book. Criticisms are a lot of the weightlifting exercises that they chose to put in this book are rotator cuff injuries waiting to happen and I'm not sure I agree with some of the nutritional advice.

Wikipedia is a highly flawed but useful source for information. I have a habit of looking one thing up and then clicking another and I am quickly lost in a maze of wikipedia randomness. Charles Bukowski -Apparently his marriage ceremony was conducted by Manly P. Hall. Yakub -I can't help myself but I'm a big fan of Yakub. Its comforting to know my white race was created by an evil Jew scientist on a remote island so after a few thousand years of relaxing in caves we would emerge for the sole purpose of harassing blacks. Man the NOI is so fucking boring now. I love all the wild all whites are devils created by yakub nigger UFOs will come and destroy whitey rhetoric. Farrakhan needs to go out with a bang and come up with some wild shit. The sorry fucker won't even bring up how Mexicans are the tools used by the powers that be to even further drop blacks even lower on the totem pole. Wallace Fard -The originator of the Yakub story. He sure looks awful white to me. The real question was he just a con man, a nut, or an undercover agent? The way he suddenly disappeared off the face of the Earth has always seemed sketchy to me too. John Dee -John Dee was a Kabballist that had a huge influence on Queen Elizabeth 1. The wiki entry says he ws Welsh but I have a hard time believing he wasn't a Jew. There is a whole history of Jew occultist types whispering in the ear of Aryan leaders like Wormtongue in Tolkiens LOTR. If you study people like John Dee its gives a lot of ammo to the right wing Christian types that claim all the super rich and wealthy that control the world are heavy into occultism. I agree with that but beacuse they are poorly researched and have their retarded Christian beliefs that anything that isn't Jewsus and Yahweh is Satan then they mangle everything. I'm sick of hearing retarded shit like Texe Marrs and Alex Jones claiming because their are statues of Zeus in front of government buildings in European cities then that is proof positive that the "Illuminati" are "Luciferian Satanists". Lebensborn -Apparently one of the women from Abba is a product of one of those Nazi breeding camps. Her entry doesn't mention it but it does on the Lebensborn page. Louisville Falls Fountain -Ha ha! I remember when they built this. Man it was the stupidest most expensive high maintenance joke of a tourist attraction I've ever seen. They were actually touting this stupid thing like it was going to draw people to visit Louisville. Its long gone now but stupidity like this makes me all the more happy that I'm out of that shithole. Jerry Heller -Jerry Heller was a greasy thief of a Jew that ran Ruthless records and ripped off all the people in NWA. Apparently when Suge Knight got gangsta on their ass so he could be the one ripping off the rappers instead of the sleazy Jew Heller enlisted the aid of Irv Rubin and the Jewish Defense league. Its pretty humorous because Rubin was a total screwball who couldn't protect anything. I have some respect for Mehir Kahane who found the JDL but he had nothing to do with the JDL by this time. Both Rubin and his right hand man were almost immediatly murdered after they got sent to prison. I remember the story about Rubin where he got word that Tom Metzger and some of his people were going to be at a bus station and he bragged to the media that he was going to go with his people and kick their ass. So they show up with reporters at the bus station and the "Nazis" who had no idea any of this was going to happen defended themselves and beat the daylights out of their attackers and Rubin turned tail and ran leaving his wounded, a few of whom were hurt pretty bad. The media got the whole incident down, so not only were Metzgers people not legally liable because it was self defense but it showed what a coward Rubin was. A good segmant of the Jewish community turned their back on the JDL after that. Tags: jews, random

This is footage from the Documentary about the Muhammad Ali vs George Foreman fight called When we were Kings. Its a great documentary about one of the greatest chapters in boxing history. But the point of me posting this is not for me to dole out a random boxing history lesson. Go to the 5 minute 45 second point of the video and look at the center of the screen. Somebody tell me what the fuck is that thing? It doesn't look human to me. Its just a few moments after Ali had knocked Foreman out. The ring had been mobbed by wildly celebrating Africans (the fight was in Kinshasha, Zaire) who through the weeks preceding the fight chanted "Ali Bombaye!" which meant Ali Kill him. There are many fascinating plots, subplots and side stories surrounding this fight, both in and out of the ring. One of which was that in order to fuck with Foremans head Ali planted the rumor that he had went to African witchdoctors and had them put a black magic hex on Foreman. Foreman, who is a very superstitious guy, was genuinely spooked and paranoid about it. Was the apparation at the 5:45 point of this video an appearance by some conjured demon that was shadowing Foreman? Hey I don't know, maybe its all just a freak occurance of light reflection but that thing doesn't look human to me. Regardless I have always felt, and a lot of people who were there have said the same thing, that there was a supernatural vibe to this fight and the goings on around it.

 I Heard It Through the Grapevine: Rumor in African-American Culture by Patricia A. Turner My review rating: 2 of 5 stars This could have been a very good, if not great book. Mainly due to the author having a huge amount of bias of the left wing acadedemic ivory tower variety, racial bias (I believe the author is one of these black "intellectuals" that every University seems to have one or two of working for them), poor research and just general stupidity there's not much worthwhile stuff to glean from this book. The main purpose of this book is supposed to have been how rumors of the conspiratorial/persecutional sort, most I wouldn't even call conspiracy theories, they border on folklore, have a history of running wild throughout the black community. She gets started trying to debunk the long standing historical belief of whites that blacks in Africa indulge in cannibalism. While to state the obvious its only a tiny percentage that do it, even now it is not uncommon. Just in the past few months I've ran across articles on BBC where blacks were killing and eating Pygmies and Albinos. Albinos from certain countries in Africa have even been granted political asylum in European countries. So cannibalism in Africa is not a fantasy or an isolated incident. She does good when she talks about how many of the most violent race riots in American history were started because of false rumors. The blacks would hear some wild story that the KKK threw a black baby in a river or whites would hear about some heinous act that a black had allegedly committed and the rumor would run through the town by word of mouth and one or both sides would go crazy resulting in many people being killed. Turner shows her perverse mental masterbatory egghead side whene she portrays the KKK as repressed gays and their penchant in the old south for referring to blacks as "boy" has to do with their alleged repressed pedophilac urges for young black boys!!! Some of the stuff that made it into this book I remember firsthand. For example the rumor that Reebok was owned by racist South Africans and helped fund apartheid in South Africa. I had a black friend that I remember going on and on about this a few times. A lot of the rumors covered in this book go into the black community believing that the KKK owns various companies that produce products that are popular in the black community, in particular clothing and shoes. Also rumors that certain restraunts and soft drinks were owned by the KKK who were putting chemicals into the food/drinks that would sterilize black men were hugely popular. Its almost comedic that so many blacks believe the KKK has any power, funding, or gumption to do things like this. They even believed the KKK owned Kool and Marlboro cigarettes! If you went to a KKK meeting you would have scared right wingers, mental patients, some very low IQ white trash and at least a couple of undercover agents, but your never going to find anybody with a controlling interest in a multi-national corporation. The author even falls for this nonsense saying the rumor that the KKK is the real culprit in the Atlanta child killings "have the most potential for accuracy", and hints that "the powers that be" were somehow working with the KKK and framed Williams for the murders. On one level Williams may have been used as a scapegoat, but nevermind that there is absolutely no evidence to support the KKKs involvement, and if you think Williams was an easy scapegoat to target what about the KKK? In many ways I think buying into this stuff works as a psychological crutch for many blacks. A real shame is this book could have focused on real legitimate conspiracies and wrongs that have been done by "the powers that be" against blacks. For example she of course goes into the belief many have, including myself, that James Earl Ray was either a scapegoat, an mkultra type mindwash victim, or was knowingly working with the system to kill Martin Luther King she never really goes into the real reasons the system would have wanted King dead. Namely he quit focusing on the world orders agenda of forced race mixing and began to focus on workers rights and protesting the Vietnam war, which of course the system is against workers rights and was pro-Vietnam war. Turner also doesn't intelligently talk about the CIA's involvement in the crack cocaine explosion of the 1980's in the black community, which I believe to be legit, never even mentioning Gary Webbs book. She also tries to claim many times that the system did many of the bad things to blacks because they were out to protect whites. You really think the Republican Party cares about middle class white families!?!? Thats definitly the wildest of all rumors covered in this book. View all my reviews. Music and the Occult: French Musical Philosophies 1750-1950 by Joscelyn Godwin My review rating: 2 of 5 stars Godwin has an uncanny knack for writing about very interesting subjects and still managing to be boring. This book mainly goes into how French composers in the 1700's were encoding Pythagorian/Rosicrucian/Alchemical symbology/magic into the music they were creating. Some of the historical stuff was interesting but maybe its because I'm neither a musician or a Pythagorian occultist when he got into deep specifics and the technical side of what these guys were doing I was bored out of my mind.

The races of Britain: A contribution to the anthropology of Western Europe by John Beddoe My review rating: 3 of 5 stars Although I don't agree with a lot of his conclusions Beddoe does pretty good at classifying and trying to trace the origins of various common racial phenotypes in the British Isles. Even he admits there is a lot of guesswork and theorizing involved in this. I believe this was written in the 1920s, so while he wasn't saddled with having to toe the line of political correctness, he also had the disadvantage of not being able to use dna tests/comparisons as a tool.

So the other day I was watching this old Roberto Duran fight I had downloaded and a memory of something long dormant in my mind revealed itself to me. I saw this crazy looking guy wearing a rainbow afro wig and holding a sign that said John 3:16 in the crowd as Duran made his walk to the ring. Some of you may be old enough to remember this guy. His name was Rollen Stewart. He often found a way to get himself into the background and onto the tv screen during major sporting events. He was a Jesus freak who said he did it to get across "the message". He sometimes got himself in hot water with the law while attempting publicity stunts including getting thrown in jail in Moscow during the 1980 Olympics and to his credit setting off a "stink bomb" at the at that time owned by Jim and Tammy Bakers Trinity Braodcasting Network. But apparently it got worse a few years down the line because he got himself in a hostage standoff situation with the police and is now serving a triple life sentence. They say he thought the rapture was coming within a week, although I don't know how that would justify kidnapping people. So the guy really was nuts and probably should have been put in the nuthouse instead of prison but that neither here nor there.  But seeing this long forgotten character in the background scenery of a boxing match also served to get me thinking about how lousy, lame and boring all team sports are to me now from the fans perspective. Where are the great personalities and epic dramas? The only sports I care for now are combat sports, namely boxing, which will always be a part of my life in one facet or another, and I've grudgingly become an MMA fan. But as far as the big three American team sports they fucking suck in almost every conceivable way. Growing up I played baseball and basketball and like most kids that played these sports I was a fanatic as far as watching the pros and had a hero worship of many of the players. I remember being very young and being a fan of the Yankees and Reggie Jackson. Although they were a little before my time another team Reggie Jackson played for that were full of uniqueness and personality was the Charlie Finley owned Oakland A's. There's a great documentary that was made about them a few years back, But anyway I was a front runner and switched allegiances a few years later to the Pittsburgh Pirates. The 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates were my favorite baseball team ever. Besides winning the World Series that year it was a great collection of personalities that comprised that team. They all had funny nicknames that reminded me of the wacky names from the frat in Animal House. Pops, The Cobra, Otter, The Antelope, Scrap Iron, Horse Face. There was Kent Tekulve whose name was so weird he didn't need a nickname and he had that weird sidewinder pitch. They had that cheesy Sister Sledge song as their theme song. They wore those cool old school pill box caps that they would festoon with "Stargell Stars". They were just a unique and fun team to be able to cheer for. I remember going up to Cincy and seeing the Reds (who I was never a fan of but I give them their props as far as the classic Reds lineup of the 70's having lots of personality) play the Pirates. Stargell didn't play but I remember Dave Parker wacking the hell out of the ball and Kent Tekulve coming in as a relief pitcher and getting the save. Being the front runner that I was I switched to the St. Louis Cardinals a year or two later. I thought Ozzie Smith was awesome with his acrobatic catches but Pirates of 1979 are still far and away my favorite baseball team when I look back. As far as basketball I loved the great rivalry between the Lakers and the Celtics. Larry Bird vs Magic Johnson had a rivalry going back the NCAA championship game when they were still in college. The Lakers also had Kareem Abdul Jabbar, a pot smoking, acid dropping, jazz enthusiast black Muslim who trained under and sparred with Bruce Lee, even appearing in one of his movies. And of course he had the sky hook. But the kings when it came to basketball was the University of Louisvilles basketball team. The 1980 Louisville Cardinals were my favorite basketball team ever. One of my prize possessions was a basketball I had that was signed by Darrell Griffith. I attended basketball camp one summer and U of L's assistant coach came and talked to us on one of the days. He really didn't teach us anything about basketball, mainly talked about how we should strive to be a good person or some kind of goody goody shit but I still thought it was cool as hell. A sports announcer got themselves into hot water after he said the Louisville basketball team had a collective IQ of 40, and he probably wasn't far off but these were jovial happy smiling old school deep south type blacks, not glowering thugs or arrogant prissy prima donnas like you see playing now. Just glossing over football my childhood favorites were the Dorsett/Too Tall Jones/Staubach era Dallas Cowboys, and of course the bad boy Oakland Raiders. Now while I don't see anything wrong with the actual act of playing any of them, I look at all of the big three big American sports as just being more corporate rot and a device to distract and dumb down the masses. Not to mention encouraging the overt negrophilia that most Americans seem to have. I don't think I could even stand to sit through an inning of a baseball game these days. Plus the blatant steroid abuse and arrogant prissy behaviour of the players just disgusts me. I watched about two minutes of an NBA basketball game that somehow made its way onto tv here recently. While I was impressed with the athleticism I couldn't have been more bored. It also seemed like some of the players were going out of their way to give themselves a distinctive look strictly for marketing purposes. There were at least 3 or 4 wacky hairstyles, a guy with a huge afro, a guy had his hair dyed a strange color, one had a mohawk and one of the white players had long hair which was obviously getting in his way the whole time he was trying play basketball. And the overwhelming majority of them had tattoos, some of them were heavily tattooed. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with cultivating your own look but this all seemed like very contrived marketing strategies and not any genuine uniqueness in any of these individuals. Oh well, I'm happy watching my fights. Tags: random

Not that this is nothing new but lately I have ran across a lot of news articles, tv news stuff (60 minutes has done two ridicluous pieces on Denmark over the past few years) and especially blog posts from Americans about how things are in Denmark and/or Europe that are so far from reality that I would say that in some cases the truth is the complete opposite of what these people claim. The most common bullshit you see are from Americans who claim this is some sort of metrosexual fashion show where everybody already has money or is taken care of by the state, all menial work is done by Turks and Arabs, there is no crime or violence. One funny thing I read on one blog was some idiot saying men in Europe were effeminent. I realize that this person was an American and the typical white American perception of being macho isn't actually being a man or being able to actually fight but its being a bigmouth blowhard, driving a big pick up truck and sitting on your fat out of shape ass watching negros play team sports while you stuff your fat head full of potato chips. But I guarantee you that if this person walked around my neighborhood or into one of the pubs around here saying that shit they would get their head split wide open within minutes. I mean its a total yuppie fantasy world these people live in. I'm not claiming its THAT bad but a few highlights from the past year just in my neighborhood, 4 people shot in a cafe, a 16 year old boy beaten to death with a baseball bat, a grenade thrown into a cafe full of people right up the street in Christiana. Besides that there are the broken bottles, piles of dog shit, garbage and vomit on the sidewalk, weekly stabbings, Pitbulls running around off the leash, severely mentally ill people walking around talking to themselves, junkies, welfare drunks, loud drunken drunken buffonery and fist fights, sometimes wondering if your in a third world country when you walk inside the grocery store, incredibly high Danish white trash ratio, etc, etc, etc, etc. Its not that these negative things are all life is or even comprise anything but a small percentage of all the great things that living here has to offer. Most people here are very nice. I see qualities in people here that you would never run across in America but the version of Denmark that I run across via the mouths of Americans are so delusional its laughable. The truth is you really can't hope to have any sort of realistic perception of how a place or a culture is just by running through some 10 day European vacation or even living over here for a short time. Certainly a perceptive person can pick up on a lot but the truth is most people are idiots with shallow motivations. I've lived here 4 years and I'm married to a Dane but I still come to new understandings about the Danish people and culture all the time. From what I've seen most Americans that come over to Europe for vacations do it because they think its something posh or fashionable to do. I mean I think of how many people I ran across back in America who thought they were worldly and understood how life was over here because they went to Germany or Ireland for a week 15 years ago and know now the same as I knew then what completely clueless morons these people were. Go right ahead and try to impress your friends when you run your mouth but most of you know NOTHING about anything. Tags: denmark, rants

Meet Americas "toughest sheriff" -Why are these tough talking right wingers always soft pudgy out of shape fucks? And what is this faggy thing with him putting inmates in pink underwear? Another thing to note is the only time I know of the Feds taking a look at him is when he allegedly specificly targetted Mexicans. They don't care about the inhumane conditions, remember this is the county jail, most of these people are pot smokers, drug users or drunk drivers, not high security inmates, but god forbid if you go after their priveleged brown class.
Secrets of mass grave revealed -A mass grave from the 1800s containing 57 Irish immigrants was found. They really don't know what happened. Whether it was disease or mass murder they don't know. This story wasn't even a blip on the map but if it had Amerindians, blacks, jews, Mexicans you can rest assured it would have been chalked up to evil racist white people murdering them all and a Speilberg movie would be in the works.
1 in 20 German men neo-Nazis -I don't know what they expect when they are bombarding whites with anti-white propaganda and anti-white Orwellian laws. Not everybody is a brainwashed sheeple and not everybody is going to roll over and die without a fight. As a sidenote I'd bet dollars to donuts the guy posed for the cameras in the Hitler costume is an undercover agent.
F.B.I and states vastly expand DNA databases -Yeah they can use it to help prove a persons guilt or innocence but I have no choice but to assume this is leading to more sinister things.
Beyond golden rice: The Rockefeller Foundations agenda behind Genetically Modified Foods -Good article about gmos and who is behind pushing although I don't know that they necessarily want to kill everybody. More like make them unhealthy and mutate peoples dna.
Police spy on activist groups -Oh wow, like I'm so shocked. I love how law enforcement hassles and monitor people who aren't doing anything illegal but in the process of hassling them are often breaking the laws they are supposed to be upholding.
Obama administration embraces Bush position on wire tapping -Can somebody show me the first fucking instance of it not being business as usual and no difference whatsoever between Bush and Obamas actions? Its like I told people before the election. It makes absolutely no difference whatsoever who wins the election. The new world order agenda is going to be followed no matter who reads the cue cards.
Attorney General calls Anna Nicoles ex-bf drug "enabler -Drug enabler or mind control handler. Go to google video and search for Freemans Anna Nicole, Britney Spears, mind control documentary. Its fascinating stuff.
Former east German athletes angry over doping confessions -Scroll down a few posts and check out my review of a book that talks about what was done to the female swimmers in east Germany.
German chess federation joins anti-doping fight-Gee I never knew roids, hgh and epo was a problem in chess!
Mali resists French deportations -Yeah Mali has enough niggers already! Ha ha!
The engineer of diversity - "Sarkozy insisted that the French people must change, that there will be dire consequences if they don't, and that not to intermarry racially is bad for the survival of the country"

The U.N tries to outlaw criticism of Islam -This has to do with the ever growing oppostion from even very liberal and left wing types to the attempts by the new world order to help destroy Europe through bringing in hordes of Muslims. The biggest mistake people make when speaking out against Muslims coming into Europe is they always lash out at the Muslims but they say very little about the people who make the rules that let them into Europe in the first place.
Modern Militia movement report written with ADL assistance -This is somewhat old news. As scary as it is that the ADL had input into this I also think it shows a level of scam artistry from them in that Militias are the biggest red herring within the USA as far being a threat to the US government. I totally believe they would have tried to pawn off 9/11 on militias and/or "Nazis" but even the dumbass American public wouldn't have bought it. The Nazi groups are full of misfits, losers and chickenshit right wingers and the militias are nothing but a bunch of SCA nerds pretending to be soldiers. German politician admits buying child porn but claims it was "for work" -Ha ha! Yeah right. Its obvious to me that perverts are put into political office by the real controllers so if they get out of line they can have their card pulled at any time. Which is obvious to me thats what happened with this guy.
Life: A Medical condition - "Restless leg syndrome, social anxiety disorder, female sexual dysfunction, celebrity worship syndrome - it seems that a new illness is invented every week, covering every potential quirk in human behaviour". They key word there is "invented". There is a lot truth that is found in the field of psychology however its dominated by bullshit like invented disorders so they can dope you up and make money off you with mind control drugs and bankrupt you with therapy bills.
Police officer struggling to adapt to life since returning to Iraq -Ok they admit the guy has PTSD so he shouldn't be allowed on the streets to work as a cop! I keep hearing more and more stories about obnoxious, over aggressive trigger and stun gun happy cops in America. The police in Denmark are WAY more professional over here.
Greek court clears anti-semite writer -Sometimes free speech wins in spite of the global Orwellian agenda.
Late author Alex Haley under siege -He admitted that he made most of the shit from Roots up and this can be verified so his people would be better served to let sleeping dogs lay, or in this case lie would be the appropriate word.
NSA's intercepts exceed limits set by congress -Wow tell me something I didn't know. I've said it once and I'll say it again. Your better off assuming any communications you make via the internet are being read by parties unknown. Anti-Semitism from Lithuanian media - "some members going so far as to worry that another holocaust may happen" Ha ha!, Yeah right. What did they allow an article criticizing Israel into the paper or something? As much more Jew wise as people from Baltic and eastern European countries are than western Europe and America its pure comedy to suggest another "holocaust" could occur any day now. The bottom line is any country that doesn't kiss the ass of the Jew world order 100% is going to have a defamation campaign ran against them by the global mainstream media. Do Jews run Hollywood and the media? -Yes. Pranksters flag Berlins dog crap Dilemma -They should do this in Copenhagen. Of the all the social problems that plague Danish society, backward immigrants, heroin, alcoholism, gangster shootouts in the streets, etc the worst of all is that many people don't pick up after their dogs. I'm all for Islamic style public floggings for repeat offenders. Tags: news

Pac-Hatton Ricky Hatton is a nice guy, and I was hoping he would win but I can't say I was surprised at what happened on Saturday in the slightest. For one thing Pac is just that good but for another I saw a lot wrong with Hatton going into the fight. For all the talk about how much better Hattons defense had improved since Mayweather started training him, maybe there was a slight improvement but overall I just wasn't seeing it. He was getting hit with counter punches against Malinaggi quite a bit because for a squatty built guy whenever he would throw a flurry he was standing straight up and his hands where all over the place. Paulie Malinaggi is a very good slick defensive boxer but he is also possibly the most feather fisted fighter in the world thats able to fight at the championship level so I knew Hatton was going to feel it if he made the same mistakes against Pac. But the big thing I picked up on with Hatton is when he would get hit he was stiffening up for a split second and this is something that when fighters start to do this you know there is some sort of problem going on with them, whether its just losing their ability to take a punch or something seriously wrong going on neurologicly, its a subtle thing that I've noticed in fighters who soon thereafter had very bad things happen to them. The knockout itself was out and out scary. I seriously feared that Hatton may not get up again ever. There was also something that I don't think many people realized or paid attention to and thats how they rolled him on his side, which normally they never do after a guy gets knocked out cold, but rolling someone onto their side is basic first aid stuff to prevent someone from swallowing their tongue, and if you look at what Hatton was doing at that moment, completely out, slightly twitching and moving his mouth in this weird way I believe thats exactly why they did it. Its not that Hatton is a bad fighter, it would have been hard to argue that he wasn't the best at 140 before he fought Pac, but I was surprised at how many knowledgable boxing people were actually picking Hatton in this fight. Like I said I wanted Hatton to win, but when Freddie Roach said Pac would knock Hatton out in 3 rounds I thought to myself that sounds about right to me. I know it has to suck going out like that and its understandable after getting brutalized like that to want to redeem yourself and go out a winner but with all the money Hatton has made its not worth the risk. I've seen a lot of fighters get seriously hurt, some of whom I knew personally, and many more turn up punch drunk years later so I think Hatton really should retire. Something tells me he will fight Amir Khan (who I would like nothing more than to see Khan get his head get knocked into the 10th row) because there is so much money to be made from that fight. Greg Page
I guess it was about a week and a half ago that Greg Page died. Page briefly held the WBA heavyweight championship. He was possibly the most naturally gifted heavyweight in the past 30 years but he never even got close to living up to his potential. His lack of conditioning was legendary. I heard first hand stories that he would eat a box twinkies every night before going to bed even when he was "training" for a world championship fight. I'm not saying this to put him down but so people can understand how talented the guy was. If your not familiar with his story he was seriously hurt during a fight suffering brain damage and wasn't much better off than a vegetable the last 8 years of his life. He is from my old hometown and he often trained in the same gym that I did. He was always very nice to me and I sparred with him on a couple of occasions. I think I had only been boxing about 6 months and had 2 amateur fights at that point in time and Page was past his prime but still considered at worst a fringe contender for the heavyweight championship. If I remember right this was somewhere around the time period preceding or a little after he fought Razor Ruddock. So the point being I was still very inexperienced so he could have took my head off, which cutting loose on people in sparring was something he was notorious for doing, but he didn't and I actually learned quite a bit getting in there with him. Anyway I will leave you with this footage of Greg putting Mike Tyson on his ass in sparring. R.I.P Greg Page. Tags: boxing

I was just thinking about how at the height of the Obama hysteria about two months preceding the election and two months after, with a short lived resurrection around the time of the inauguration, because I am "the American" I would get bombarded by people from every country, background, race, religion, etc about what I thought about Obama, who would I vote for (I don't although I guess I could have with a write in ballot), who do I think would win, and various other Obama talk. I'd get "Obama'ed" sometimes as much as five times a day. Peoples opinions of him were, with a few exceptions, all pro-Obama. The exceptions were the Chinese contingent, who had an amused bafflement that Americans were going to elect what they consider to be a talking monkey. For all their faults and shortcomings the Chinese have no conception of political correctness. The other non Obama supporter was a guy from Kurdistan who was worried that Obama, who he referred to as "the negro" was going to cut the Kurds guns and ammo supply off. Which on one level is understandable because the Kurds are getting shit from all sides, Turkey, Iraqis, Syria and Iran have all had their share of Kurdish blood on their hands. But this guy out and out loved the war escalating neo-cons, who have been using and discarding the Kurds to their advantage since at least the 80's. There was only one other person that actually liked McCain that I ran across. A Chinese woman who liked McCain because she saw him as a "war hero". I'd politely reply that dropping bombs on a village from the relative safety of an airplane is about as far from being a hero as anything I can imagine. But like I said with these exceptions the Obamazombies were in force over here too. Your liberal Danes were all for him and no Dane that I ran across had anything bad to say about him. Bush hate is thick throughout Europe. Arabs, Pakis, Iraqis, Turks all had a positive opinion of him. With the exception of the Chinese, Asians thought he was alright too. Africans were out and out fantical and jubilant. Close to the election a guy from Ghana who is in my Danish class (and also prone to going on wild rants about the book of revelations and biblical prophecy to me) asked me who I thought was going to win. After I told him its a fixed fight for Obama, he can't lose, the African started jumping around, dancing and celebrating, waving his arms around. Twas quite an odd and amusing site. Another thing that people may find of interest is "OBAMA" is spray painted on walls all throughout Copenhagen. On my daily bus ride across town I see it multiple times scrawled upon walls. I really don't know what to make of it. Do the hip hop graffitti "artists" think Obama is gangsta or some shit? Do the immigrant youth think Obama is some sort of global proponent of their cause, whatever that might be? For a while I would try to explain to people that Obama is just a cue card reader who makes no decisions whatsoever, the same as Bush. It made no difference whatsoever who won, although it was obvious to me that McCain was intentionally brought in to take a dive. I'd explain a few things about globalism, banks, corporations and the new world order. There were exceptions but most were not able to grasp these concepts. As great as the symbology of a mulatto being President of the United States is, especially if he is the cap on the gravestone if Amerkwa collapses, I really don't plan on doing much Obama bashing here if I can help it because I know he's a complete and totally controlled puppet. All signs point to this being his controller. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zbigniew_BrzezinskiYou can download a better version on various bittorrent sites I will leave you with a streaming version of a very well done documentary about Obama and the forces behind putting him in the white house.

 Factotum tie-in by Charles Bukowski My review rating: 4 of 5 stars This is pretty typical Bukowski. As with most of what he wrote its supposed to be loosely based on his real life experiences. If you can get beyond his annoying habit of trying to convince you of how tough he is and exagerrating if not out and out lying about the frequency of his sexual encounters and the quality of the women involved then its a good quick read for a laugh. The best stuff in this is his humorous accounts of working various disposable menial jobs. Bukowski is very funny, a fact which seems to get lost in the shuffle by the lame hipsters who comprise the bulk of the fans of his work. View all my reviews. Faust's Gold: Inside The East German Doping Machine by Steven UngerleiderMy reviewrating: 3 of 5 stars Fausts Gold documents what went on in eastern Germany with the "doping" of the athletes, in particular the female swimmers, with various roids and EPO. Its particuarly disturbing because in the case of the female swimmers, they were given to them without the girls knowledge of what they were taking, just being told they were "vitamins", and that some of the athletes were as young as 13 years old. Of course these women all developed serious health problems at a young age, had deformed children, and turned into freakish looking manly women. Of course its not like eastern Germany was the only country whose athletes were improving their performance through chemistry, and the truth is even with the multitudes of examples of people who destroyed their health for short term gain, doping is more rampant than ever now and there are still idiots that believe the side effects of steroids are miniscule.
