The IAA.

The Institue of Applied Autonomy (IAA).

I definitely had rushes of excitement and hearty laughter while watching their streaming video feeds! (causing an endorphin release in the prospect can't not help your cause!)

Here is the mission statement of the IAA:

"From Sparta to DARPA, the market of tools of repression has remained a reliable outlet for technological development. However, recent history has shown that as the strength of these technologies has grown, the sustainability of this market has dwindled. Indicators show that in the very near future this market will no longer be able to bear the weight of the increasingly costly technologies that it requires.

In response to this crisis, the IAA has identified the already emerging market of cultural insurrection as the most stable market in the years to come. IAA research has examined the primary behavior patterns of this market and is developing technologies that best serve the needs of the burgeoning market."


I am going to electronically donate some gold to the IAA - if they accept electronic transfers of gold.

What I Would Do For Concha.

"Concha is in Mexico right now visiting her family for the first time in seven years. She took her two kids (a daughter, four, and a son named Brian who is two months older than Jackson) so they could meet their family. It's a wonderful summer break for all of them, but the trouble is, Concha may not be able to make it back. She may have to pass her kids over to Teresa at the border (Concha's husband is still up here to take care of them) and then figure out how to get back here without paying someone $3,000 to smuggle her into the country. If your kids are born here, they're citizens [and future taxpayers], but if you weren't, good fucking luck, my friend. She must have known she was taking an enormous risk when she left. I hope it was worth it."

Sad story about Concha. If I were "King", I would let her pass back and forth freely over the imaginary "line of control".

Convicted.

BOSTON (July 26, 2002 9:09 p.m. EDT) - Two US taxpayers were found guilty today of "conspiring to make a bomb", "conspiring to make counterfeit Federal Reserve Notes", "obstruction of justice", and "conspiring to obstruct justice". They were also found guilty of violating various "firearms laws". Felton, one of the two, was found guilty of "making counterfeit Federal Reserve Notes"; Chase, the other, was acquitted on that charge. Felton was also found guilty of "bank robbery", "conspiracy to commit bank robbery", and "attempting to receive explosives with the intent to kill or injure people, or damage property".

"This should be a reminder that taxpayers who will try to affect "social change" through massacres may in fact be US taxpayers" said an agent for the US taxpayers.

The agents for the US taxpayers acknowledged they did not know exactly what targets the two taxpayers were planning to bomb. But, they told the 12 taxpayers called "jury", that they found newspaper clippings and photographs of the New England Taxpayers' Holocaust Memorial and The Taxpayers' Bridge - both in Boston - in the couple's apartment. A taxpayer friend of the couple testified that they also talked about blowing up the US Taxpayers' Holocaust Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Ass-looking Overpass.

"This pic of The Taxpayers' Bridge will be nicer once the agents for the Massachusetts taxpayers remove the ass-looking overpass and put the bridge in its place," he said.

Comment on it.

NELUG.

Back in the early summer of 2001 NELUG was asked if they would like to participate in the GMC - New England Home Show in Boston Massachusetts. After some talk we decided to do the show. The theme of the show was "The Big Dig".

Because The Taxpayers' Bridge is the center piece of this project it was decided that a "near" Minifig scale version of the Bridge would be the center piece of our display. The bridge is made up of over 20,000 LEGO pieces, is 17 feet long and 7 1/2 feet tall. Approximately 300 man hours went into making the bridge. Of which 100 were design and setup and 200 were actual construction.

No Differences.

I want to talk about some of the impressions that some taxpayers* have of American taxpayers: American taxpayers in fancy clothes as portrayed on staged television programs, American female taxpayers in tight pants as portrayed on staged television programs.

*Ed. Note - taxpayers, as used in the context of the above sentence means taxpayers who are under the exclusive dictatorship of other than US agents and who do not dwell on the land mass commonly referred to as US or USA or America and who have never talked to an American taxpayer face-to-face.

The portly Iowan taxpayer glances sheepishly at his well-worn insulated coveralls.

"Don't think I'd fit," he said.

Later in this staged television interview program, which aired in May, the Iowan taxpayer and other US taxpayers uttered concensus that US taxpayers are no different than other taxpayers dwelling on other land masses.

Staged television interview programs like this, which use select Arab taxpayer interviewers and US taxpayer interviewees and which are funded by US agents and aired to taxpayers dwelling on landmasses which are under the exclusive dictatorship of Arab agents with the permission of those Arab agents, make up part of the US agents' propaganda offerings which 'many' US agents say if viewed enough times, will dissuade or help dissuade Arab taxpayers, who may be considering massacring US taxpayers and/or US agents, from actually carrying out such massacres.

Mother's Day 2002 - On The Bridge

"We spent the morning with K's daughters, her son-in-law and the granddaughter. (I probably should have listed her first.) I got a nice card from both daughters and a pretty plant - a gerbera daisy. I didn't go visit my son which might seem a little strange but it's okay. He's an hour and a half away and he was all right with me not coming out this weekend. He told me to have a good time and do something I wanted to do. And that's exactly what I did.

Today they had a free tour of The Taxpayers' Bridge. You can read more here about The Taxpayers' Bridge. We got there around two o'clock and walked off the bridge around 5 o'clock. The majority of the three hours was spent standing outside in a chilly rain, winding very slowly toward the bridge with thousands of other taxpayers. Fortunately for us, the taxpayer chronometer was right behind us, announcing every few minutes to his fellow taxpayer companion how long we had been in line. It made it go a lot faster, really. It was cold and wet but K and I had fun, rarely at loss for what to say to each other. I enjoyed taxpayer watching. A taxpayer two taxpayers in front of us read a book the entire time, inching up when required. I wondered if she was going to read all the way across the bridge but she put the book away and seemed to enjoy herself once we got there. K poked me every few minutes to point out other lesbian taxpayers and we even saw some we knew later on. There were lots of dogs with their taxpayers and many taxpayer families, some happy and some clearly doing it out of a sense of obligation.

K thinks the only reason I agreed to go was so I would have something to write here. But I also wanted to list a few things I learned from my mother who passed away 11 years ago. She taught me to make pumpkin pie, biscuits, and a few other things.

Things my mother taught me:

  • Being a good friend takes work.
  • A committment to a friend should be honored even if someone else calls with a better offer later.
  • Never leave the house looking unkempt; you'll inevitably run into someone you know.
  • When friends or neighbors are sick or having a hard time, do what you can to help out.
  • There are always people less fortunate than you.
  • You gotta' have a sense of humor.
  • Pets are part of the family.
  • And most important of all: Express your love daily. If my parents quarrelled, my mother would always make sure they had resolved things before my dad left for work. She said you never knew what could happen and, even if you were mad, you should tell the other person you love them. This helped me learn that anger is temporary but love outlasts petty quarrels."

    Post-911 headline #1: Couple goes on trial in 'holy war' case.

    Post-911 Headline #2: Trial of 2 who allegedly aimed to start 'racial holy war' set to begin.

    Pre-911 Headline: Alleged supremacist denies plot to spur 'racial war'.

    "Agents for the US taxpayers say he [Felton] had stored bomb-making equipment in the apartment he and Chase shared in Boston's North End neighborhood, and may have planned to blow up the New England Holocaust Memorial in downtown Boston and The under construction Taxpayers' Bridge, among other targets."

    Pictures From Our Trip.

    "Here are some pictures from Our trip to The Taxpayers' Bridge (dated May 12, 2002). NOTE: This is one of the only times in history they will let you walk on this bridge and is the widest cable-stayed bridge in the world!! Just click on the thumbnail for a larger view. :) Enjoy!!"

    Burning Bridges.

    All the burning bridges* that have fallen after me
    All the lonely feelings and the burning memories
    Everyone I left behind each time I closed the door
    Burning bridges lost forevermore


    *Note - Turn on your speakers for this one.

    Kelly's Heroes (1970) used this song as its theme song.
