A fairy tale

By on April 20, 2013 in Lounge, Wild & Wacky

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, lived a good king and queen. The land was fair and prosperous, but one day there appeared in the forest near the castle a wicked witch, and, as you might imagine, things became less fair and prosperous after that.

The witch was very old and very ugly. She had huge bushy eyebrows and a nose that was so long that you wouldn’t believe me if I tried to describe it to you: some said that it looked like a gurney. Well, what happened was that people who wandered into the forest fell under the enchantment of the witch and, no matter who they were, or what they looked like before, they turned into very old and very ugly people with exceedingly long noses. The witch, who was evil at heart and always trying to turn good things into bad, also gave the people a grumbling attitude so that they never tried to solve their problems, but just shuffled around grumbling all the time.

One day, the king and queen went riding abroad in their royal carriage, and the king remarked to the queen: “How camest  it to be that so many of our subjects are old and ugly and have such long noses?” They rode on farther and the queen remarked: “How camest  it to be that there is such grumbling in the land, when the weather is fair and the crops are bountiful?”

When the king and queen returned to the castle, the queen went up a long and winding stair, into the highest tower, to a door that was locked with twelve locks. The queen unlocked each lock and then entered a wondrous room that was decorated with mysterious wooden carvings overlaid with gold and inset with jewels. On one side there was affixed to the wall a silver mirror and on the sides of it were two candles in golden candlesticks, and the candles never went out. (Of the creation of this room and its remarkable objects, no tale tells, the castle being very ancient.) The queen approached the mirror and asked in rhyme, as her mother had taught her:

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Why’s there grumbling, one and all,
And why the brows all rough and ferny
And noses long just like a gurney?

The image of the queen in the mirror began to swirl and twirl, and in place of the queen’s image, there appeared the image of Belinda the Wise (the good witch of whom many tales are told). The kindly voice of Belinda replied:

Deep midst the forest, down in a ditch,
There lives a foul and evil witch.
To save the land, and people dear,
The king must go. There he will hear
Three tasks to do, but should he fail,
The king will die, and all shall wail.

That was disturbing news. The queen loved the king very much, and was afraid that he might die, and so she didn’t tell him about what the mirror had said about the tasks. Well, as you can imagine things just got worse and worse. More and more of the people fell under the spell of the witch’s enchantments. Nobody tilled the fields; nobody milked the cows. The cobbler and the blacksmith stopped their trades. Soon there was nothing to eat, and naturally they blamed it all on the king. Indeed, people took to coming to the castle and shouting bad things to the king, saying that they needed a new king, one who make the crops plant and plow themselves, and the cows milk themselves, and the shoes and tools make themselves.

The king was very distressed by this turn of events and decided that he needed to take some time off alone to ponder the solution. So he decided to go hunting in the forest, taking his heroic steed Valencia, his faithful hound Marvo, and his shotgun KABOOM. And he set off towards the forest. Continue Reading →

Obots abandon NC HQ after Taitz exposé

By on December 11, 2012 in Orly Taitz, Wild & Wacky

Orly Taitz and her intrepid band of followers has located what they believe is a hotbed of Obot activity in Durham, NC, located at a “Kenyan restaurant.” This came from an IP address on a comment [Link to Taitz web site] left at the Taitz blog:

I pity the court clerks who have to deal with the piles of  ****, that you refer to as filings, on a regular basis.  Only an uneducated and unethical idiot like you would think they are valid and worth reading.  They should be deposited in the nearest trash can upon arrival for they are worthless pieces of ****.

Get the **** out of the U.S., you deranged lunatic!!

Taitz, not noted for geographical accuracy in her IP address location and targeting innocent persons and mail exchange servers instead of the real commenter, came up with an interesting suspect, The Safari Cuisine Restaurant in Durham, NC, as shown in this 2007 photo:

It looks to me to be abandoned and one comment I found on the Internet suggests the restaurant is no longer in business. (I’ve found it really difficult to get accurate restaurant information on the Internet.) The street address Taitz gives for her IP address lookup isn’t quite the address of this restaurant, but it’s close enough for Taitz to jump to a conclusion.

Startling new photographic evidence: is this the forger of Obama’s long-form birth certificate?

By on November 24, 2012 in Birth Certificate, Wild & Wacky

Contemporary photo surfaces

The State of Hawaii has repeatedly verified that the long-form birth certificate released by the White House in 2011 matches the information from their official records of Barack Obama’s birth. Claims of forgery have been roundly debunked. But what about the official records themselves? Birthers want to see the microfilm copies of Obama’s original certificate in Hawaii, but what’s to say that the Obama conspiracy didn’t start before the original birth certificate even reached the Hawaii Vital Statistics Bureau?

Anyone creeping around the clerical offices of the Kapi’olani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital would have been stopped and questioned, but could an innocent-looking lost child have slipped in to insert a forged certificate into the official work flow and thereby make for himself a place in history? Does this photo of the pseudonymous blogger called “Dr. Conspiracy” hold the key to Obama’s downfall?

Barack Obama born in Kenya: New authentic photograph proves

By on November 9, 2012 in Wild & Wacky

No elephants this time. A photograph has surfaced on the Internet on mainstream sites like MSN and The Huffington Post showing newborn Barack Obama in Kenya near Kogelo village (where President Obama’s step-grandmother lives to this day).

I believe the photo is authentic, showing Barack Obama, just hours old, with his mother at the hospital in Kenya. This is shocking enough, but the rest of the story is even more bizarre.

Beast watch: bizarre new results

By on November 4, 2012 in Wild & Wacky

A year or so ago I bought a grab bag at auction that had a few beat-up old watches in it. I cleaned them and put batteries in some with the idea that I’d try to re-sell them on eBay, and I did sell a couple.

Setting a watch is something most people do without paying a lot of attention, and when I went to set one of those watches, something was wrong and I kept not being able to set it. When I focused on the problem, I realized that the watch had a “6” on the dial in the 9-o’clock position. The watch has been ticking away in a drawer until this evening when I pulled it out to set it for standard time. Then the monumental significance of this watch hit me.

This is what this watch will look like on election day:

666watch

Update:

OK, this one has me rattled. The photograph above was taken months ago when I was trying to sell the watch on eBay (no takers). This morning I looked at the watch to see the “666” but it didn’t say that; it said “667”! Not only did it skip “666” but now the date is stuck on 7 and cannot be changed, neither with the one-click stem setting for setting the calendar or by running the hands past midnight.

Do secret Bible codes prophesy that Obama is the Messiah?

By on October 17, 2012 in Wild & Wacky

Let me start by saying that I think this article is silly

I was having lunch today and browsing through comments here at OCT on my device. I saw that RuhRoh mentioned an article at WND:

WND has a new article up using “ThoughtPrint Decoding”, which they swear is a science, to “prove” that Obama’s speech to the U.N. September 25 was a confession of his ineligibility and a call for the public to storm the White House should he be re-elected.

Ways of creating information ex nihilo reminded me of a gimmick from a few years back called the “Bible Codes” that extracted prophecy from the Bible by taking equidistant letter sequences (ELS), like every 50th letter, and finding words that can be interpreted to mean something. That set me to thinking whether we could find some choice nuggets in Jerome Corsi’s writings using the ELS methodology.

I was looking for some software so I wouldn’t have to write my own, and one thing lead to another, and I ended up at the Wikipedia article on Bible Codes. Then something caught my eye. According to the Wikipedia citation, Haralick, Rips, and Glazerson. 2005. Torah Codes: A Glimpse into the Infinite. New York: Mazal & Bracha. 125, these researchers found a rather extended sequence in the Torah saying:

Destruction I will call you; cursed is Bin Laden and revenge is to the Messiah.

Well isn’t that special!

Special meaning “cute” perhaps, but not meaningfully special. BTW, you can find “Corsi lies” in the Bible codes too.
