Endgame: Blueprint for Global Enslavement

I watched this movie for the first time last night. I've since watched it again and I suspect I'll watch it three or four more times before I've completely absorbed it all.

Holy sh@#.

The stuff in this documentary will literally ruin your day and change your entire paradigm of thought. I don't think I'd have this big a mind alteration in my worldview if I were to meet, shake hands with, and fly into space with aliens from another planet. It's that big.

This movie is about those who control the world, those who want to control us (and are controlling us, for the most part), and what their ultimate goals really are. This movie is about the elusive Bilderberg Group.

When you watch Alex Jones' latest documentary, be prepared to rewind, pause, and rewind again as information flies at you. A treasure-trove of names, faces, facts, and information is in this documentary.

I've seen most of Alex's movies and have always been impressed by the depth of his research and his in-their-face confrontational style when he takes on the neo-cons and world enslavers. This movie, though, is by far his best work yet. Amazingly, it has more info-per-minute and better production values than any of his other films. Great stuff and I highly recommend it.

Eragon and Eldest

A friend of mine loaned me both of these books (audiobooks in unabridged format). Holy crow! These rule! It's a simple story, at its core, but very well-told and even more amazing when you realize that the author wasn't even 20 when he wrote the first book! I find myself agitated that the third book (this is a trilogy) isn't out yet.

And if you've seen the movie Eragon, don't be dissuaded by it. That pile of crap they called a piece of film doesn't even come close to the books themselves.

The story is about a young boy, Eragon, whose life is changed when he finds a dragon egg and it hatches for him. From then on, he is more than just a farm boy with little education and even less self-esteem. He's a dragon rider. He learns magic, swordsmanship, and above all, he learns to have confidence in himself and in doing what is right because it is right.

A great set of books! Highly recommended!

Retro Review: Founding Fathers: Uncommon Heroes

Founding Fathers: Uncommon Heroes by Steven W. Allen - Of all the books and biographies of the founding fathers of this nation, this one is the best I've read. The short biographies of each man dispense with the usual detail and log of events and instead draw a picture of the personality and beliefs of each of the founders. Using private letters, historical documents, and other true history, Allen draws a complete profile of each person and makes them come to life. This book is very highly recommended!

Retro Review: Atlas Shrugged

Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand - Known among libertarians as the defining work of true libertarianism (what Rand called "Objectivism"), this book is the magnum opus of Ayn Rand's writing. "My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute," is how Ayn Rand explains herself in the "about the author" portion of this edition.



I did find this book to be aweful long and believe that 300+ pages could easily have been cut out without adversely effecting the story. However, the price of the book is well-spent if you only read John Galt's radio address (in the last 1/3 of the novel, about 60 pages long). His speech summarizes the precepts of the book and the "producer's strike" he has instituted.



This truly mind-expanding philosophical novel is one that should not be missed by anyone for any reason. It's that important.

This book offers a concise, easy-to-digest synopsis of the Revolution starting with "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness" all the way to the surrender of the British.
