	Well, you know...
	They should have flown, coach.
	Adam Curry, John C. Devorak.
	It's April 15, 2010.
	Time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination, Episode 1901.
	This is no agenda.
	Reminding you it's time to paint a man again, even though it isn't constitutional.
	And coming to you from the Hilltop Watchtower Crackpot Command Center in Gitmo Nation West in the People's Republic of Southern California.
	In the morning, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from Northern Silicon Valley, where it's tax day also...
	And it's a taxing day.
	I'm John C. Dvorak.
	It's Crackpot and Buzzkill.
	In the morning.
	In the morning to you, my friend.
	In the morning to everybody.
	It is indeed tax day, and we have a way to commemorate that, John.
	Okay.
	I'm going to show my support by donating to no agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh yeah, that'd be fab Of course Of course I fucked it up.
	How'd you fuck it up?
	up.
	I played the wrong one.
	Hey, it's April 15th.
	Who are you going to get your money to?
	I don't know.
	Oh, yeah.
	Adam and John in No Agenda.
	Yeah, on No Agenda.
	In the morning.
	Sir Jeff Smith at work.
	Thank you.
	That's pretty good.
	Dude, the guy is amazing.
	He's not a knife for nothing.
	Well, you know, it's interesting, his stuff is so distinctively professional.
	Yeah, well, it's also hooky, as we call it.
	It's hooky.
	And it's, uh, the guy's a hit machine, what can I tell you?
	If only he were writing for Taylor Swift, think of the career he could have.
	Yeah, he wouldn't have to do anything.
	He could just sit at home and make jingles for us all day.
	But oh no!
	Oh no, he decides to live a life of poverty supporting the show.
	Like the vow we have taken as well.
	Well, he's a Sir Jeff Smith.
	Don't forget you missed him.
	No, no, no, no.
	I said that.
	I said Sir Jeff Smith.
	Absolutely.
	So, John, before we get to the executive producers, I would have to say there's one of two scenarios taking place in the world right now.
	Either A, 2012 is a reality and we are all going to die in a fiery ball, or B, they're really playing with the earthquake machines.
	You know, earthquakes existed before the earthquake quote-unquote machine.
	You know that?
	Yeah, of course.
	So would you think that maybe, especially if the earthquake machine, unquote, was causing disruptions, that natural earthquakes would naturally occur?
	Yeah, of course.
	I don't call every single earthquake as a machine-generated occurrence.
	So the earthquake that took place in the middle of nowhere China, you think that was an earthquake machine earthquake?
	No.
	No, I think that was a natural earthquake.
	It was, of course, just a coincidence that they happened to be doing an earthquake emergency evacuation drill the day before.
	That always seems to be the coincidence with these things.
	But they do those a lot in that area.
	No, I'm talking about the volcano that has not erupted for 90 years in Iceland that just blew a huge wad and has shut down all aviation in Europe.
	Yeah, I know.
	But let me just give you my thinking behind it.
	It's just a possibility.
	You think it's the earthquake machine?
	Well, let me tell you why it's a possibility.
	So, of course, volcanoes erupt due to shifts in tectonic plates, and that's how they start.
	But Gordon Brown, of course, is working on...
	Well, he's going to try and get re-elected in the United Kingdom.
	They've got the elections coming up, which we should probably talk about because they're doing American-style elections this year in Gitmo Nation East.
	And one of the big problems that will be on the roster is the fact that he has not yet retrieved the money from Iceland, along with Gitmo Nation Lowland's fake government, who tripped and fell, from IceSave.
	And so maybe this was like, hey, you know, of course the Icelanders had a referendum.
	They said, no, we're not going to give you your money.
	And, you know, they're refusing IMF money and it's all kind of problems.
	Maybe someone just gave a little flick of the switch there and said, hey, guys, we really want your money.
	Send us your cash and we'll give you some ash.
	Of course, it backfired.
	You actually worked on that.
	Yeah, I did.
	Of course, it backfired.
	And now this huge plume of smoke.
	I've never heard of a volcano actually shutting down aviation.
	Oh, yeah.
	No, it happened when Mount St.
	Helena went off.
	It's a terrible thing.
	I was going to ask you that.
	Yeah, I was going to ask you that.
	And there was one in, what was the one in the Pinatubo, one of those other ones, that's the one that brought the plane to a halt in the midair because it was going through some of the ash.
	Yeah, it can happen.
	Went down 25,000 feet and barely restarted?
	Yeah, it can happen.
	You don't want that shit in your engine, that's for sure.
	No, it's not just a dust.
	It's a dust with a bunch of little...
	It's like...
	Silica, I think, or silica?
	Yeah, but it's nasty.
	It's like if you took some of it and you kept rubbing it on your fingers, you start to bleed.
	I mean, it's not a good product.
	It's not a fine product.
	Yeah.
	We should not be buying this product.
	So a couple questions.
	First of all, this is an economic disaster.
	It looks like they're going to have to shut down aviation for two days in most of Northern Europe.
	No one's talking about that.
	I mean, it's a huge economic disaster.
	Yeah, for everybody but Eurostar.
	Yeah, exactly.
	But this stuff, doesn't it eventually float down to Earth?
	It's only at 18,000 feet.
	It's in a band between 18,000 and 34,000 feet from what I read.
	And won't that come drifting down somewhere?
	Yeah, it comes down, but it comes down, so yeah, it does, and it makes a mess.
	In fact, after Mount St.
	Helena, most of the eastern part of Washington spent a couple years in cleanup because the stuff gets in the computers, it gets in the power supplies.
	It's just a horrible product.
	It's a nasty-ass product, John.
	Let's not bottle this and try to sell it on the market.
	But, you know, this thing has not erupted for 90 years.
	Yeah, no, I'm surprised.
	I mean, yeah, it goes off every once in a while.
	Just like the ones in Hawaii, they go off every so often, but they don't cause this kind of a...
	Right, and this is the second eruption.
	They gave a little warning, a little shot across the bow, and the thing started to bubble.
	And then it's like, where's the cash, dudes?
	You know, this is mafia stuff.
	So it's either that or, yes, indeed, where the Earth will all die.
	We're all going to die in a fiery ball.
	You know, the thing is that these, this part of, and also the Earth is, you know, supposedly, you know, the guy who is, the Gaia, you know, Earth is a living thing in an odd way.
	It takes care of itself.
	You get a little global warming, push some of this ash Yeah, that's going to cool it off, right?
	This is why I don't like the idea of doing it yourself.
	Let the Earth do it.
	It can cough up more ash than we'll ever deal with.
	Right.
	And it screws up aviation, though.
	And this will cause global cooling, correct?
	Well, if they had a...
	Take about four of these babies and set them off and you'd have a cooling problem.
	Don't give them any ideas.
	Would you stop?
	The China one, though, I got to say, it was just...
	I just find it coincidental when they're doing a...
	An exercise the day before.
	It just always kind of seems to happen.
	Where did you get that?
	I never saw the exercise report.
	Well, it's interesting because I can't find a report other than one someone sent me from NOS. That's the state-controlled media in the Netherlands.
	And it's a video news piece.
	And I've been Googling for it.
	I couldn't find this information.
	You're sure it's from the same year?
	Yeah.
	Now, they did have an exercise two years ago, because that's about the only thing I came up with.
	But they literally said at this end of the report, luckily, so two things we're lucky, there's only about 100,000 people who live in the region, otherwise a lot more would have perished.
	And right at the end of the report, and I have it in the show notes for the Gitmo Nation Lowlands native speakers, At the very end of the report, it says, luckily, rescue efforts were nearby because they were doing an exercise for this very occasion.
	I don't know, it's just one of those things, you know?
	Yeah, that's a coincidence.
	It's a little too much of a coincidence.
	It's one of those things that just...
	Although I'm expecting to hear the hit.
	Coincidence?
	I think not!
	What hit?
	That one.
	Well, you kept asking for it.
	I'm expecting you to hear a couple in the mornings today.
	Let me just do one more then, just so we're at it.
	President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Sunday, 5 million people should get out of Tehran so it's less crowded when the big one hits.
	This is a guy who's in the know, right?
	He's probably like, oh crap, China, Iceland, oh Jesus, people get out of here.
	We need five million less, you're all going to die, and no one's listening.
	I'm just saying.
	We'll see.
	It seems to be a lot of activity.
	A lot of global activity.
	Yes.
	How about our executive producer for the episode 1901 of No Agenda?
	Well, our executive producer is also a knight today.
	Oh.
	And it's Travis Bowers of Henderson, Nevada.
	He has a lengthy note which we'll read later in the show.
	Okay.
	And he donated two dimes on the quarter.
	Two dimes on the quarter.
	This is...
	What's that?
	10, 10, 25.
	Holy moly!
	Instead of double nickels on the dime, double dimes on the quarter?
	Yeah.
	In one shot?
	Yeah.
	That's why he's a knight.
	Wait a minute.
	So we have to knight him?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, we have to.
	Yeah.
	Crap!
	We've got to knight the guy.
	Okay.
	Wow.
	We actually have two knights today because our old buddy out of Santa Barbara...
	Sterling Osworth coughed up his 13th consecutive donation of $77.77.
	And so we have two nights today.
	Wow.
	So who is...
	I guess we don't have a...
	No, we have an associate executive producer, Rodney Staben, of Houston, Texas.
	Houston.
	That's the way it'd be pronounced in New York.
	Really?
	A lot of people don't realize it's called Houston in Texas and Houston in New York.
	Yeah, I never got that Houston thing.
	It's also Rodeo Drive and not Rodeo.
	Try asking for that.
	Try asking for that in Beverly Hills.
	Hey, hey, where's Rodeo Drive?
	Well, there's a town up here in Northern Silicon Valley called Rodeo.
	And it's the same thing.
	There's actually a couple of interesting mispronounced or dubious pronunciations that take place in the area.
	And there's a bunch of them down in Southern California like La Jolla, which everybody out of town has pronounced La Jolla.
	La Jolla.
	But Wairika is one of the best ones, which is in California.
	Which everyone says, Eureka?
	I don't know what they say.
	It's spelled Y-R-E-K-A. Right.
	And there is a town of Eureka, but this is Wairika.
	Euretha.
	And then there's Rodeo, which is up here north of me.
	And then there's a...
	They mispronounce a couple of streets.
	Although not to the extent of Ponce de Leon down in Atlanta.
	Anyway, it's kind of amusing.
	These are ways you catch a lot of towners so they can beat you up.
	Well, let me thank Travis Bowers as our executive producer of episode 191.
	Man, we've got to do a really good show.
	I mean, we are funded nicely for today's episode.
	If only we could do that every single show, then we'd be in business.
	That's fantastic.
	Thank you so much, Travis.
	And as our associate executive producer, Rodney Staben, thank you for your support for the show.
	You guys know that you can put this on your resume.
	You can have us vouch for...
	I mean, but if Travis has, you know, double dimes on the quarter, I mean, the guy's probably rolling in dough.
	He doesn't need any jobs.
	He mentions that he will...
	We'll get to it later.
	Okay, well, thank you very much, guys.
	You definitely are telling him where to shove it.
	Shut up, sleep.
	Forgot to give you our formula, which is pretty important.
	Please do this as a supporter.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	And there's a couple of PR associates that I want to talk about, or let's just call him the PR associate, period.
	Brian S. King.
	Who set up the billboard on I-69 in Indianapolis.
	I have received so many comments, emails, messages about this.
	The billboard is fantastic.
	There's a link to the YouTube video in the show notes under his PR associate title.
	That thing is awesome.
	I mean, it's just like, wow.
	We need to do more of these.
	You know, there's a lot of opportunities out there to buy space on benches and bus stops.
	These kind of low-end billboards.
	You know, everybody should just become like advertising specialists that listen to the show and they want to help us out.
	And find out about cost per thousand and where the real bargains are.
	A lot of times it's somebody plastering a free sign, like for example on the Berkeley bike overpass.
	You could put up a sign up there and it would take probably about a week before the police take it down.
	And there's a lot of opportunities to put this stuff up.
	We also want people to make comments on blogs and elsewhere and call radio shows.
	And someone else suggested sending spam.
	I can't condone that.
	Yeah, I don't think the spam is a good idea.
	We have a karma club that we have to respect, and as spam, it would be disrespectful.
	And just a couple other mentions.
	Craig Damlo said there's a...
	There's this app called Text Plus.
	It's a free app, so I don't think it's his.
	And it's available for iPhone, iPad, Android.
	I think it's also available for the BlackBerry.
	And he's created a no-agenda community on that.
	So I joined that one last night.
	I'm not quite sure how it works or how well it works.
	We'll give that a try.
	And here's something funny from the anonymous photographer.
	Who said he works for mainstream, lamestream media, as he says.
	A lot of people in media, by the way, listen to this show.
	And a lot of them are really frustrated.
	And I'm always calming him down.
	You know, it's like, hey, you're in the right place.
	We need you there.
	You know, a lot of them are frustrated because I know for a fact that there are people in the mainstream, lamestream media...
	That listen to us ramble on about various things that they'd love to ramble on about, but they can't.
	But they listen to us saying, these two incompetent boneheads can do it, why can't I? I know, but we make it look easy, John.
	That's what it is.
	So anyway, he was covering a tea party event in Boston, Massachusetts, and he came across a number of people with an Atlas Shrug sign, which I always love when people report that because it means I can play the jingle.
	Hello!
	Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.
	And so what he did was, he went down the line and greeted them with an in the morning.
	To his surprise, he got a smile and an in the morning greeting in return.
	For those of you who are new to the program, that is our secret handshake.
	Just say, in the morning.
	Whenever I'm in the office in San Francisco, I always try it again and say, in the morning.
	There's now two people who answer in the morning back.
	Who?
	Andrew and Nick.
	Oh, they're the only two people listening to the show.
	Well, yeah.
	And your point is?
	Alright, the nighting we'll do later?
	We'll do that?
	Okay.
	Oh, boy.
	So, I got tons of stuff.
	There's tons of stuff, but let's try to get through as much of it as we can.
	I want to bring up a couple of things that are going to get old, because it was supposed to be done last week.
	Actually, there was a couple of notes I made for stuff for pushing off to the next show.
	But I want to mention, there's an interesting...
	Now they got this Lexus stop-selling SUV that was called unsafe about 12 hours after consumer...
	Yeah, Consumer Reports said, oh, the thing is unsafe because I guess it has drift?
	Is it drift or plus?
	No, it has some little problem where if you let off on the gas...
	Yeah, there's drift.
	...and then you shift it, you turn the wheel real sharp, and then back the other way to flip it.
	Here's what not to do in any SUV, okay?
	It's like, go through a high-speed curve, take your foot off the grass, and hang a real sharp turn.
	Yeah, of course it's going to roll over.
	That's stupid.
	It's called the trailing throttle or lift throttle oversteer.
	But all the old SUVs had this and they never put the keybosh on them.
	And this car has been around for, I don't know, almost 10 years from now.
	I can tell you.
	By the way, as a Lexus, it's the clunkiest looking Lexus they ever made.
	I don't think anyone should have ever bought one in the first place.
	Yeah, they should have just recalled it because it's ugly.
	It's totally ugly.
	Then it would have been okay.
	It's ugly.
	Get it off the market.
	It's not a good product.
	It's the GX460, and here's the kicker.
	I got the article from the New York Times.
	Let me get to the end of it.
	Here it is.
	Oh...
	Here it is.
	The Mr.
	Champion said electronic stability systems.
	And by the way, they slipped this in so that, again, they have the meme in there that it's the electronics.
	It's the electronics.
	They got something wrong with their computer, right?
	Yep.
	Mr.
	Champion said the electronic stability systems used on other Lexus and Toyota models have always worked quickly to stop slides.
	So the problem on the GX460 was surprising.
	The new Toyota 4Runner, which, by the way, looks exactly the same, which uses the same basic architecture as the Lexus, because it's the same car, was tested the same day and did not have the problem.
	Now, so, what's wrong with this picture?
	Now, that said, on Toyota's website, you can go there.
	One of our producers sent us a link.
	And there's a long expose about how the congressional testimony, a lot of it was based on the fact that somebody had jiggered with the wiring harness on the Prius or one of the other Toyotas, and it causes an acceleration effect to take place.
	And the whole thing seems like, well, we, of course, from the beginning...
	Yeah, we said this is all about screwing Japan, saying, hey, take our debt and like it, bitch.
	So we've been bringing this out in the beginning.
	Now it's starting to...
	Now, as of course, as the public has gone on to the next new thing, now the facts are starting to come out.
	And this is something phony about this whole deal.
	But the...
	And the only people that are covering the Toyota...
	Bitching about the guy messing with the computer is their own website.
	You have to go to toyota.com to find any discussion of this.
	It's just pretty much been blacked out because there are other more important things like whether Pam Anderson really is going to get to the next layer of Dancing with the Stars.
	Oh wait, I have some real news if you want some.
	Would you like some?
	Oh yeah, I'm always gaming.
	And now, back to real news.
	Okay.
	Yeah, you'll like this.
	This is big.
	This is huge.
	This has not been reported yet.
	As I'm slowly reintegrating into my circles here in Hollywood, here is the information I have received.
	Sandra Bullock.
	Was so fed up with Jesse James' philandering, she was ready to leave him six months ago.
	In fact, when she received the Golden Globe, and she was like, also lovey-dovey, you know, my husband, and blah, blah, blah.
	At the same time, she was Facebooking, saying, what a bastard, what an asshole.
	And the reason why she came out with it after the Oscar is she did not want the news to actually...
	Blow her chance at winning the Oscar.
	So she kept this secret until she received the Oscar, and that's when she came out with it.
	So she knew all along what was going on.
	This was no huge surprise.
	She's the PR expert.
	She is an expert.
	She should be our PR associate.
	I'd love to have her.
	If she ever listened to the show.
	Jesse might.
	Yeah, he probably would.
	More likely, let's say.
	So that just goes to show, because remember we were talking about how does this stuff get out there all of a sudden?
	So she is the one that leaked it herself because she wanted to secure her chances at winning the Oscar.
	This was a known fact.
	This is like one of the biggest kept secrets in Hollywood.
	It's not kept anymore.
	Uh-uh.
	And you heard it right here.
	We can do real news as good as the big boys.
	Hell yeah.
	We can do scoops, baby.
	Ha ha ha.
	Oh, my goodness.
	All right.
	So what else we got?
	Well, what's coming in, of course, fast and furious is, you know, now we've got, of course, now that everyone has moved on, now we're getting a lot of reports about the crash in Russia, which, of course, wiped out a large portion of the Polish government.
	And a couple of interesting little tidbits...
	Two days before this horrific event, who was in Poland receiving an award?
	General David H. Petraeus, commander of the U.S. Central Command, as he was invited by Polish officials who presented him with medals for his service.
	I'm just saying that was interesting, so it doesn't really mean anything.
	No, it doesn't mean anything at all.
	And then I received this from...
	That gives Petras another piece of gold that he can hang off at the house.
	Let me see.
	The Russians like the big giant ones.
	He's going to have like Flavor Flav.
	He's going to have a big gold clock around his neck for helping take out a Polish president.
	Yeah.
	So one of our producers, which is what we call all our listeners, Nikolai Lakzinski...
	Wait, wait, stop, stop, stop.
	Let's back up a minute.
	Let's get back to the Petraeus thing now that you mention it.
	The Russians...
	I had, by the way, I didn't put it on the clips today, but I was listening.
	I listened.
	This is another...
	I listened to Medvedev, the Russian president.
	He was at the, actually I may have one clip about him, but he was at the Brookings Institute.
	Yeah, of course.
	Everyone was in town.
	The president of the Brookings Institute has got the, I can't think of his name, but he's got the weirdest name ever.
	You have to look it up.
	Anyway, he was going on about, you know, they kept talking about how much help the Russians can do in Afghanistan.
	You know the Russians are still irked about the fact that we screwed them over when they were trying to stabilize Afghanistan.
	We started the Mujahideen, which later became Al-Qaeda.
	We funded them, gave them weapons, and we sold coke to do it.
	We both trained them, did all the right things, and took our CIA agent, bin Laden, who I'm more and more convinced is still an agent for the CIA. Well, he's a dead agent.
	Well, he could be dead or alive.
	No, he's dead.
	He's dead.
	Whatever the case.
	And it had to irk the Russians to no end.
	You think?
	So they're giving Petraeus a medal.
	Good job.
	This is part of some other scheme.
	The Russians are not happy with us.
	No.
	No.
	Maybe those missiles in Poland was...
	The whole thing is weird.
	We're going to put missiles in Poland.
	We've got Petraeus getting a ward.
	I don't know.
	It's just weird.
	So anyway, let me move on.
	Mikolaj Lezinski, one of our producers from Poland.
	Or as Mikolaj says, your producers from Gitmo Nation about to be taken over for good, Poland.
	Again.
	Again, yes.
	Thank you, John, for doing the piece about Poland, stating the obvious that this was not an accident.
	The Secret Service, German and Russian-controlled media here in Poland don't even hint that in the slightest.
	By the way, my feeling is that this was a German hit for reasons we can get into.
	But he found a blog post.
	This is interesting, of course, because we don't speak Polish.
	And our audience is now so vast that we're getting lots of good information.
	A blog post written by a female journalist who retrospects the people she met filming and who died in the crash.
	See, there were a lot of journalists on the ground at the time because they were expecting this delegation to arrive.
	Anyway, in the blog, the woman writes in his translation, quote, I was recording a memory of priest Roman Irdriges...
	Hmm...
	Yes.
	Just use the last initial.
	Anyway, I. I. So he was on the plane.
	And his parish had been very hopeful that he is still alive because he sent a text message, several text messages, saying, Greetings from Smolensk, which of course is where this crash took place.
	They are trying to land, conditions are tough, and the old man whips out his cell phone, powers it on, and fires a few SMSs home?
	It's possible, however, and now Mikulai gets into some theories, just minutes after the crash, Russian authorities said 87 people died.
	Why was the number so precise when some of the bodies trapped under the fuselage have been removed only today after heavy machinery arrived?
	Two, Lech Kaczynski's body was found in a state which enabled immediate identification, while his wife was only identified by a hand with a wedding ring.
	So a couple other things that then are pointed out.
	There's a picture, and I got a link to it in a translated art, and everyone has copied this picture now, by the way, and there's an associated video, where you see the nose cone And the forward part of the fuselage, completely intact.
	I would say about a fifth of the plane is intact.
	Which is weird for a crash when you have landing gear upside down and all kinds of strange, just very, very strange situation.
	And then this video comes out.
	Now, this could be completely fake.
	I really don't know, but I'm going to play it for you.
	And this is of a father and a son, and they are one of the first on the crash scene.
	You hear a really loud train whistle in the beginning.
	And, of course, they've translated what people are saying.
	Which I'll read along for you.
	So they're walking towards the crash site right now.
	You're about to hear the train whistle.
	Now we see the landing gear upside down in the woods.
	And I'm going to read along with the translations.
	But listen for...
	Oh, shoot.
	There we go.
	Damn, it says.
	Although I can't hear him say it.
	So they're the first on the scene.
	Get out of here, you bastard, someone says in the background.
	It's a train noise.
	Here comes the train.
	But listen for the gunshots, John.
	Gunshots.
	Actual gunshots.
	And we have no idea why they're...
	So there's a...
	This YouTube video is not going very well.
	We're there to make clips.
	Yeah.
	Here it comes.
	So there's a lot of confusion.
	We're all going back, someone yells.
	Get out of here.
	Leave.
	Listen.
	Hear it?
	Two shots.
	And there you see the plane, the nose cone completely intact in this video.
	Everyone move!
	Back!
	Go!
	And then of course...
	Do you have a link to the video?
	Yeah.
	You want to see it?
	You want the link right now?
	And you know what?
	It could be fake, but damn.
	Yeah, we're very skeptical about some of these videos, but, you know, you can imagine, though, these guys are on, the real guys are on the scene in the Army or whoever, and, you know, this guy's still alive.
	Yeah!
	Oh, shit!
	Not anymore!
	We gotta take him out!
	Well, they don't want anyone saying there's an explosion inside the plane or whatever caused this thing to go down.
	Yeah, I don't like all the, from an aviation perspective, I really don't like all of the, what they're saying is like, oh, there was confusion because the crew spoke Polish, the air traffic control spoke Russian, the English was broken.
	I mean, that's bullcrap.
	This is a military field.
	Oh yeah, the runway was too short.
	This runway was not too short.
	They land all kinds of amazing aircraft at this military field.
	And I do think that indeed the immediate body count was strange.
	And there was confusion to start with, right?
	It was like 123, and then the Russians said, no, 87.
	And they knew that immediately.
	And as Nikolai points out, there's still...
	We're still pulling people from the wreckers yesterday.
	I think we can conclude that this was an assassination of somebody.
	And it took a bunch of collateral with it.
	Nobody even cares anymore.
	This is getting to the point where you're worried that because you're on the same flight with some congressman that they want to kill, that they're going to blow up the whole plane.
	What happened to the targeted stuff that used to be so popular in the 60s and 70s?
	Remember that one Russian guy, they put a pellet in a walking cane?
	Yeah, how about exploding cigars and stuff?
	Let's get creative.
	His head off, but not your neighbors.
	Not really, this is no good.
	But they don't care anymore.
	The reason I was thinking about this, because I was reading the book Family of secrets.
	And I came to a couple interesting conclusions.
	One was that, you know, all these CIA... The book is not about the Bush family.
	Well, no, it's not.
	It's about the CIA. Yeah.
	And the connections around the CIA and who's in and who's out.
	Yeah, and the best section...
	If I had the book here, I'd read parts of it.
	Maybe I will in the future.
	I should reference...
	People should read it.
	They take Woodward, the Woodward and Bernstein team, and deconstruct his career.
	And he's obviously working for the CIA. Yeah.
	And he's never said he wasn't.
	I mean, maybe he has, but they have, he was working for Navy Intelligence, and then he was working here, and then he wanted to become a writer, and so they said, well, let's, so they, immediately with no experience, they push him over to the Washington Post, and the Post says, this guy can't write, so they send him out to a farm club, some newspaper, he learns to write, he comes back.
	And then the first real assignment he gets that's of any importance is the Watergate thing.
	And he has friends.
	All his reporting has to do with some friend told him this, and a friend told him that, or he contacted this guy, that guy.
	He's obviously being fed information, and then his payoff for doing his job properly is to get these bestselling books out there, which conveniently leave out all kinds of interesting facts, which are carefully documented in this book.
	I as a journalist.
	And it's very well documented.
	And you start looking at this and you realize that this book, because it wasn't actually presented as a tome about the CIA, I don't think it was like, it didn't go through the normal vetting process or whatever legal means to keep important information out.
	I don't think that the agency would want it be known that half the journalists working for these big newspapers are working for them.
	I think that there's no control left.
	Because they used to have presidential connections.
	That's now gone, as we know.
	The CIA and the Obama administration are basically at war.
	I think there's just no control.
	So they just take it as it comes.
	Yeah, there may be a lot of ad-libbing going on.
	But whatever the case is, a lot of this seems to be sloppy.
	But I came to realize that they can do this, and your Polish contact makes it clear.
	The media isn't going to write about it.
	They don't care.
	I mean, there are some people that probably do, but they can't get it past the editors anyway.
	So nobody's going to We're good to go.
	In the United States of America, out of 300 plus, 350 million people, it doesn't mean anything.
	We're lost.
	We're a drop in the bucket.
	And somewhere along the line, intelligence agencies, or smart governments and smart agencies, Realize that they could do a lot of stuff and get away with it because there's nobody that's going to follow up.
	They're not going to complain.
	It just happens.
	And so you have this kind of activity taking place where you just kill off a whole plane of people, let's say, by our theory, and nobody cares.
	It's like, oh, whoa, what's the official pronouncement?
	Oh, the official, here's the press release from the home office.
	Oh, yeah, it was an accident.
	It was foggy.
	The guy went to a tree.
	Okay, move on.
	That's right.
	American Idol and see what's going on because something's going on.
	Don't look over here.
	Nothing to see here.
	Ooh, look at that.
	Sorry.
	And Gosling has got a beef with Pam Anderson.
	I mean, this was whoever discovered that you could do this.
	It's a genius.
	You create a bunch of bogus distractions, dumb down the school system so everybody's an idiot.
	And just do whatever you want.
	Just take over the place.
	But just don't make a big scene.
	You still have, you know, the elections and all these people that are supposed to be running things.
	And there is a system they put in place.
	And there are laws.
	You can still get arrested for running a red light and all the rest of it.
	But, you know, meanwhile, this other stuff goes on.
	It goes on without question.
	And when somebody does question it, and people do, and that book's a good example, the thing is laced with good information.
	No one cares.
	That book, if it's sold 20,000 copies, it's a miracle.
	So yesterday, and this comes from another one of our listeners with Russian Connections, HP's offices were raided in Moscow.
	Yeah.
	Some speculation that classified information might have been intercepted from the presidential plane that crashed.
	Laptops, probably a couple of flash drives, storage disks.
	And when you look into HP, oh my god.
	So they have a huge outpost in Poland.
	HP is deeply embedded in Poland.
	They set up a...
	Do you know what?
	At HP, I'm amazed at this.
	You should never buy an HP laptop again.
	Listen to where they are.
	They're doing the entire IT system for the State Treasury of Slovakia.
	They're doing the National Employment Agency systems in France.
	Complete IT infrastructure outsourcing services to the Belgian federal system.
	Four-year agreement for the Swedish Parliament for a secure IT and communications infrastructure.
	Just won a new contract with Bulgaria's Ministry of the Interior.
	European Parliament contract as part of a consortium.
	Hospital, entire health system in Spain.
	They're doing the police in Wiltshire.
	Ministry of Defense in the United Kingdom.
	I mean, these guys are all over the place.
	Yeah, talk about information collection potential.
	It's unbelievable.
	Unbelievable.
	Unbelievable.
	So, and then of course, and I think, and this is why I think that the hit, if it was a hit, it came from Germany.
	I've been looking at Gerhard Schroeder.
	So Gerhard Schroeder was the, was basically Angela Merkel before they switched genders.
	And he left in 2005, and after systematically shutting down 17, thank you very much, Atomic Rod Adams, another one of our listeners, after systematically shutting down 17 of Germany's nuclear power plants, because, oh, they're so dangerous!
	17 of them, which supplied about 25% of the nation's power.
	Like, a week later, he goes to the Nord Stream Pipeline cabal.
	Which, of course, he's now on, he's a board member and he's a part of this big project, which, of course, also just started days before this assassination, which is taking Europe's gas or Russia's gas and supplying it to Europe through Germany.
	And they're bypassing Poland altogether, and Poland was making waves.
	They didn't want this to happen, you know, for obvious economic reasons, but also there were some problems with the pipeline in the port.
	Yeah, it screws their shipping lanes.
	Yeah, their shipping lanes, everything, and I think that maybe there was some threat of sabotage, etc., and they just took them all out.
	I'm pretty sure this pipeline, that's the big business.
	That's where I'd look at it, and I'd say that there's some nasty actors in Germany.
	Well, you know, I remember the complaining when the Afghanistan stuff began.
	There's a pipeline involved there, too.
	And somebody had put out some, similar to our show, had put out this wacky Theory about Unical and all the crazy stuff going on during the Taliban era and all the rest of it.
	And how they were all in bed together.
	And this guy just went on and on with all these assertions.
	And then some years later, somebody came out with a real timeline of what had happened over the years.
	And it was like exactly that.
	The whole Georgia-Russia incident, which of course was not Russia attacking Georgia, but Georgia attacking Russia, was written in a book by Tom Clancy, another fine CIA-connected guy.
	Yeah.
	Just one more thing on this crash, which I picked up from Bloomberg.
	So of course this central banker who was pushing back on not only lying, the central banker would not lie about the profit made, Which is kind of typical for central banks to do, but also rejected IMF money because Poland didn't need it.
	They were doing just fine, thank you very much.
	And they devalued the złoty against the euro.
	Not nice to do if you're playing in Gitmo euro land.
	So Poland now says, oh, we have no reason to rush the appointment of a replacement for the central bank governor, Slavo Mir Skirzypek.
	Yeah, don't even try.
	And you know why?
	Because, uh, hold on.
	They have, uh, the deputy governor is handling the duties just fine, Pyotr.
	And of course, Piotr joined in March 2008, nice little timeline, as a former analyst and fund manager for Deutsche Bank and JP Morgan.
	Yeah, perfect.
	It's a takeover.
	I feel bad for our Polish brothers and sisters.
	They kind of had it going on.
	They had the guy who was against the European Union.
	He was screwing with the Euro.
	He didn't buy into the swine flu scam.
	And they take him out.
	Not just him, but...
	We're going to take your wife.
	We're going to take your friends.
	We're going to take your religious leader.
	We're going to take your central banker who was doing a good job.
	Good job!
	Good job!
	Good job, everybody!
	You're all dead.
	Goodbye!
	That's how it goes.
	Well, you know...
	They should have flown, coach.
	Hold on.
	Let me mark that one.
	Oh, yes.
	All right.
	Your turn.
	Well, I don't really have anything.
	You've got all tons of clips and stuff.
	You don't have anything.
	All right.
	Good night, everybody.
	We'll be here all week.
	The week.
	I'll have to go look in the earthquakes.
	I think we had a little quake here.
	Right now?
	In the middle of your speech, when you're on a big giant rock in California and you have these real minor quakes, it always sounds like somebody's slamming a door.
	Hold on, I can check right now.
	I've got an app for that.
	The USGS for the Bay Area citizens.
	It would have been about like a four in the Berkeley Hills.
	Really?
	Let me see.
	I've got a Baja hit about...
	That thing really puts them all, because there's been thousands on a daily basis.
	Yeah, there's like three after, one after another in Baja, California.
	Five, I see.
	Hmm.
	Hey, they're revving it up, John.
	Keep going.
	Let's talk some more.
	Yeah, you laugh, brother.
	You laugh.
	So, let's see what we can do.
	I got a good Law of the Land meme clip.
	Oh, okay.
	Why don't you do that one and we'll get to my clips.
	My clips are all kind of all over the place and so I don't want to get us too far off the track of sinister dealings right off the bat.
	Well, what's wrong with sinister dealings?
	No, I said I want to get off that.
	I want to stay on that.
	If I'm going to start going on my clips, we're going to start going all over the place.
	Okay.
	Now all of a sudden I, for some reason, can't seem to find my...
	Oh, damn it.
	Well, let's play Russia in the WTO then.
	This is the Russian president bitching about the fact that he's not in the WTO with some interesting commentary.
	Where was the Russian president?
	Was he at the big summit?
	At the Brookings Institute.
	Ah, okay.
	I've got to get the president of the Brookings Institute's name because it's like, how do any parents give a kid this name?
	I suspect maybe some of our colleagues will want to return to these issues, but if I could ask you one question about Russia and the global economy, and that is what you see as the prospects for Russia being part of the World Trade Organization.
	Being honest, I think that we should have...
	We have been on its threshold longer than any other country, even such big country as China.
	And being honest, I think the issue of Russia's accession to WTO is politicized highly.
	It has become a carrot before us.
	They keep saying, well...
	Behave well and we will accept you to the WTO. But this is not correct, because if we assess to the organization, everyone will benefit, not only Russia.
	It is a very important part of international economy.
	Whatever people say, we have a lot of things to offer and harmonization of.
	The rules we use is very important.
	Talking about my personal position, we would like to assess...
	She lost it right there, didn't she?
	This was not the world's greatest translator, this woman.
	To the WTO, and we should make this procedure not humiliating for us.
	And I will be frank, I know that Barack Obama will be not offended.
	He said that Russia...
	We should join WTO fast.
	We started the process in 2006 when our relationship was just evolving but there is no result as yet and we count very much on a favorable position of the new administration to force the joining of Russia to the WTO. This does not run counter to other commitments like Customs Union with Belarus and Kazakhstan.
	All the processes can be harmonized and help each other benefit from it.
	Anyway, so he's complaining.
	I guess the WTO is important to Russia, but what does Russia, you know, I mean, Russia does these crazy trades, three, four-way deals.
	They're very difficult, and they...
	They have a certain crooked quality about a lot of their activity.
	Yeah, really?
	So the president of the Brookings Institute is named Strobe.
	That's not a nickname?
	I have to assume that his parents were hippies.
	Hey, man.
	We'll call him Strobe.
	Hey, baby.
	He's like strobing out now, man.
	Yeah.
	Awesome.
	Strobe.
	That's like Storm Phillips.
	Actually, his real name is Nelson Strobridge Talbot III. Oh, he's an elite?
	Nice.
	And so that's the place that Nixon wanted to firebomb.
	I've been still, by the way, looking into...
	Now I've got binders full of Watergate stuff.
	Yeah, you're into it, right?
	It never was, but now I am because, again, the book History of Family of Secrets, they discuss the whole thing, and it's actually quite funny.
	I'm telling you, people, you have to read this book because it'll show more.
	one of our producers has access to some art that was drawn during these hearings.
	And I think that I thought all of the Watergate hearings were public, but apparently some of them weren't.
	And on the back of these courtroom drawings, the artist has written some notes that our producer was thinking about telling us about, but then he got side swiped on the highway by a car that sped off with no license plates and, And he's like, I'm not going to do it anymore.
	Like, okay, it's all right, brother, take it easy.
	It's not all that important to us.
	No, but it is interesting.
	So anyway, this book goes into great detail about how Watergate, and if you read this, and apparently the guy points out that there are at least four other books that have been written post-Watergate that assert the same thing from different perspectives, that Nixon had nothing to do with Watergate.
	The whole thing was a setup because he was having a feud with the CIA.
	And Howard Hunt, being the classic CIA operative who supposedly was retired, but the evidence says that he wasn't and that CIA wouldn't provide any information to anybody about anything, went and set up these break-ins using all the techniques you'd use to get caught.
	And of course there was also rumors that there was a file of pedophiles.
	Yeah, you know, I'm less inclined to think that.
	I think the whole thing was just to get Nixon out of office.
	And by the way, I was thinking about this too, which is, there's a lot of stories during the last days of Nixon about him crawling around the White House on his hands and knees crying and doing all kinds of weird stuff and flipping out.
	How hard would it be?
	It was bad weed, man.
	How hard would it be to feed Nixon acid in his food through the...
	I mean, if you're the chef of the White House and somebody comes up to you and says, look, we're going to kill your kids if you don't do the following, and dope him up.
	You know, there's a lot of speculation that they actually drugged Reagan and that his Alzheimer's was synthetically induced.
	And that it wasn't like a natural Alzheimer's occurrence, but they actually fucked him up with drugs.
	Well, that brings me to the, there's a clip that showed up on YouTube some time ago, and I actually blogged it because I thought it was fascinating.
	And I had actually earlier predicted, during the elections after Clinton, when they were running Gore versus Bush, I had actually seen the way Bush was moving up the ranks to become the obvious candidate and then to win the presidency.
	I won a lot of bets on that one, by the way.
	And I remember Bush when he was a Texas governor, and there was a YouTube clip that came out showing him as a Texas governor chatting away.
	And then showing him like three years later as the president talking, and it was like two different people.
	The first guy was quick-witted, he was funny, he was fast on his feet, he was snide, but he was fast.
	He wasn't making all these stupid mistakes.
	He wasn't slurring his words and talking slow and making gaffes left and right.
	But anyway, this YouTube video shows him before and after.
	I'm thinking, what the hell are they feeding this guy?
	To get him to be this kind of dopey character.
	And then in the debates, as you recall, there was a big controversy.
	Oh, he had the listening device on his back.
	He had a big device on his back and a thing in his ear so he could be told what to do.
	And I mean, the whole thing is like, and how hard would it be?
	If you have total access to feed the president drugs in his meals.
	You know, it's interesting you say that, because remember I gave you the translation from Nicolas Sarkozy.
	He said that Obama is insane.
	And I'm seeing more reports like this.
	This is from Phoenix, the East Valley Tribune, titled, Obama Going Off the Deep End.
	There's more and more of this.
	Maybe there's a setup to get us to start thinking in these terms, like a meme, you know, to get everybody ready, and then to give them something and see what happens.
	But I have this sense with Obama that somebody once described him as the guy at Yale with the good dope.
	Hey man, who's got the hookup?
	Because he just has that air about him.
	I have this sense that he's had enough experience with psychedelics and...
	That he could get through it.
	That he could get through it.
	First, he'd recognize it.
	He's like, I'm stoned, dude.
	I'm stoned.
	He could recognize it and then he could deal with it as opposed to somebody like Bush or pretty much anybody else except maybe Clinton.
	That would, you know, just get kind of dingy about the whole thing and, you know, who knows what would happen.
	But I'm telling you this, the difference in Bush's personality from early to just a few years in, it was too radical.
	It was radically dumbed down.
	Well, but it makes so much sense, you know, and Bill Clinton, of course, they put all the hookers on him and the interns and all the, you know, it was like, you know, they turned him into a sex addict.
	Keep him busy.
	Yeah, exactly.
	You've been cigars and fat chicks.
	That's still pretty amazing to me.
	Oh, then I might as well play this one since this has been going around in circles from the Ministry of Truth.
	This is Michelle Obama.
	And she's with Barney Frank there.
	And this is for the LBG Q and A. But listen to what she says.
	Listen for it.
	See if you can catch it.
	He's also spoken out against the stigma surrounding HIV testing, which is still plaguing so many of our communities, which you all know, a lot of that is due to homophobia.
	Barack has led by example when we took our trip to Africa and visited his home country in Kenya.
	Whoa!
	Whoops!
	His home country.
	His home country of Kenya.
	Where he was born!
	Oh, what a gaffe.
	By the way, I made a gaffe a second ago.
	I said Obama went to Yale.
	I'm at Harvard.
	Oh, okay.
	But that's a good one, isn't it?
	That's a classic.
	You've got to send me that clip because I want to put that in.
	You know, I want to do another one of these medleys.
	Yeah.
	That's just my favorite.
	Play it again.
	Play it again.
	Oh, hold on a second.
	I'll see if I can fast forward to it.
	It's my favorite bit of the week.
	Ah!
	He's also spoken out against the stigma surrounding HIV testing, which is still plaguing so many of our communities, which you all know, a lot of that is due to homophobia.
	Barack has led by example.
	When we took our trip to Africa and visited his home country in Kenya...
	Whoops!
	Whoops!
	It never ends!
	That's so dumb.
	Oh, dude.
	You know, we could let's do one more funny clip before we get to to support because I'm just having so much fun.
	Let me go to my list here.
	I got one for you.
	This is what we talked about on Thursday.
	Don Lemon.
	It was funny, because at the very end of the show on Thursday, we talked about the Civil War and how that is being turned into a representation of people for and against slavery.
	Whereas that is not necessarily...
	Right, and there's a number of good linking quotes that were sent to us saying that, well, Lincoln said that...
	Right.
	I saw some quotes going back and forth where Lincoln actually explicitly said it wasn't about that.
	He even said, if I could make this...
	What was the quote, Sean?
	He basically said that it was about keeping the country in one piece, and if it meant busting up slavery, fine.
	If it meant not busting up slavery, fine.
	That's not the point.
	The point was keeping the country in one piece.
	Right.
	So, this was this jerk-off, Don Lemon, on CNN. And he's on with Roland Martin.
	So this is two black guys, which I don't give a crap if they're black, white, red, or yellow...
	But when you propagate this kind of BS on television, it's a problem.
	So listen to them talking about, and this of course all stems from the controversy about the Virginia governor proclaiming April as, what was it?
	Confederate Month or something.
	Confederate History Month.
	Okay, here we go.
	Let me just fire this one up here.
	This is an amazing piece of conversation between these two guys.
	Alright, so on Wednesday's Rick's list, we have R&R, where Rick talks to senior contributor Roland Martin.
	Today, Roland is in my home state of Louisiana, and that's where we start.
	So these guys are in Atlanta.
	And they're southerners, which makes it even better.
	That's funny, this Roland Martin character I have on a clip, too, with Mary, with Matlin, that crazy...
	Oh, okay, good, good, good, good, good, good.
	Roland's live from...
	YOLANCE! YOLANCE! YOLANCE! First, hey, happy Confederate History Month.
	You know, you being in Louisiana and...
	Oh, please, don't even get me started.
	...me being here in Georgia, two states that observe this, and it follows African American History Month as well, so...
	I don't want you to feel excluded.
	And I don't want this guy, he doesn't feel excluded either.
	Governor Bob McDonnell has declared this month Confederate History Month for Virginia.
	So look, you know, I don't want to debate the merits of the proclamation and celebrate whatever you want, right?
	But, he says, I did go to the website, this is what I should tell you.
	I went to the website just to see what it was about, Roland, and here's what he said.
	He called the Civil War, quote, a four-year war between the states for independence.
	What does that gain him politically by doing this?
	Okay, first of all, here's the deal.
	And this is the problem.
	Republicans are always talking about how they don't like for folks to brand them as being racist or bigots.
	And I understand that.
	But the last two Democratic governors, Mark Warner as well as Tim Kaine, did not issue a proclamation.
	Tim Kaine also said, look, it makes no sense.
	The two previous Republican governors issued the same proclamation.
	And so, who are they actually playing to?
	This is really a recognition, Don.
	Of American terrorists.
	They were terrorists.
	These were people who committed treason.
	No, they were terrorists.
	But hey, Roland, let me tell you this.
	I understand what you're saying.
	And when we talked about this, listen, I'm a freedom of speech person.
	I believe that people have the right to say and protest whatever you want.
	If you start, you know, threatening people, if there's hate speech or that kind of thing, that's where you draw the line.
	There is a history to this country for Confederacy, but should we celebrate it?
	That's a question.
	Don!
	Before you answer it, he says that...
	We are going through a period where we need to explore our history, and an exploration of our history can benefit all.
	That's what he said.
	An exploration of our history can benefit all.
	Okay, right, and I can give you in 30 seconds versus a whole month what it was all about.
	These were American terrorists.
	These were individuals who were committing a sin against humanity, who wanted to keep the system of oppression, the degradation, An absolute denial of opportunities for African Americans.
	We're celebrating people and had they wand on, you and I would not be sitting here right now.
	You and I would be in the fields right now as property as opposed to being free individuals.
	And so that's like somebody saying, oh, we're going to celebrate the Nazi soldiers by saying, well, they were only doing their job as opposed to working in concentration camps.
	I love it.
	You can't twist it any better than that.
	Yeah, that's pretty twisted.
	Let's celebrate like the Nazis.
	That's what people listen to when they listen to CNN or any of these other stations.
	This Martin character is just a...
	Well, this isn't him.
	This is on his segment, I guess.
	This is Roland.
	What's his name?
	I don't know.
	Whatever.
	But the other guy is the one I'm talking about that's saying this.
	He's on the segment.
	Yeah.
	He does a segment with Matlin on the Campbell Brown show, which I have a clip of, and he's the same excitable guy.
	Unfortunately, he's not erudite enough to pull it off, but he's trying to be one of the big...
	You can just see this, because if you work in media and you see these guys moving up the ranks, they want to get a high-paying show is what they want.
	By being controversial.
	Yeah, so they think you have to go over the top with extreme, crazy, you know, but the problem is if it's all bogus, which this guy seems to be specializing in, you know, misunderstanding, misrepresentation of the facts, it's not going to give him the job, but they're going to keep him on because he's highly entertaining.
	But at the same time, the public doesn't need to be seeing this kind of thing or listening to this stuff.
	Do you want to play the Campbell...
	Yeah, this is off a different track.
	This is about, they make actually, the guy here finds actually a pretty good point to make, but you have to imagine that this little segment is on the Campbell Brown show can't be doing very well, that they would have to resort to these kinds of little segments.
	Who is Campbell Brown?
	Campbell Brown has got a show.
	She's got like an O'Reilly show.
	Oh, she's kind of like a milky cougar chick.
	She's really smart.
	She's like a straight Rachel Maddow.
	She's like a straight Rachel Maddow, exactly.
	And she's honestly, she's one of those people, you know these types.
	They think that by being real journalists and doing things the right way and, you know, Which produces an incredibly boring show.
	That makes no money.
	Makes no money.
	There's no gimmicks.
	The show's crappy.
	And so obviously some suits came along and said you gotta put these two people on.
	Let's spike it up.
	Liven it up.
	Liven it up.
	All right.
	Now you're talking about being discreet.
	How about being stupid?
	Here we have the United States Census.
	Okay, U.S. Census.
	We can go anywhere.
	We're actually counting Americans.
	That's a good thing.
	Every 10 years, it's constitutional.
	We've got a photo here, though, of some of the hats and shirts and things like that.
	These products were not made in the U.S. The Chicago Tribune has a story, Chicago Sun-Times, a piece that some of these products came from China, Bangladesh, and other places.
	Come on, if we're going to count Americans, can we at least have something made in the U.S.A.? I take your point.
	Please.
	$340 million for those hats?
	Come on.
	Now, you know I like looking good, but I agree with you.
	Yeah, you would never put that on.
	I would put the hat on.
	Ten questions, ten minutes, fill it out.
	Do your Census Bureau.
	I'm not sure.
	This goes under the category of government waste to me, who's ever making those stylish shirts.
	It's interesting because a lot of people sent me a link about this, and I was like, you know, whatever.
	So, big deal.
	You know, this is the kind of stuff we don't use to be controversial.
	I mean, although, yeah, the point is well made that it's kind of weird that we have all this money being spent on hats from China for the census.
	And by the way, I went to the Chinese supermarket over here to get some supplies, and every checker and everybody in the whole store is wearing these hats and shorts.
	Well, of course.
	They're taking over.
	Oh, please.
	Free, all free shirt.
	So what we do on this show, and this is a prime example of it, you just really set it up in this Campbell Brown, you know.
	So I'm not saying that she's not a real journalist or she's not good, but the way the mainstream media works is you have to have...
	Controversy.
	You have to throw in some Tiger Woods.
	You've got to have all this stuff that is completely irrelevant to what's going on in the world.
	And in order to spike up your ratings, so advertisers will pay for the show.
	And that's exactly what doesn't work anymore.
	Because then you get no journalism.
	You get bull crap that doesn't matter.
	You don't get the type of analysis.
	Yeah, and if you listen to those two...
	You listen to those two...
	And by the way, Madeline looks like she can't move a muscle in her face.
	It's unbelievable.
	I mean, she's just basically...
	It looks like a...
	A wax shell with words coming out.
	But anyway, there was like a bogus debate.
	They were going back and forth.
	This guy's a fast talker, which is annoying.
	And the whole thing is just like, what am I watching this for?
	Anyway, so let's go over some of the people that did give us some support this week.
	We did already mention our executive producers, and I got a long letter from one of them, which I got a fine because it's in the bottom of the pile of stuff.
	I just put it down.
	So that's Travis Bowers.
	Yeah, Travis Bowers.
	We're going to knight him in a second.
	But listen, let me get through some of the other guys.
	John Groomling in Aspen, Colorado, gave us his state tax refund, $168.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	And he would like to still do a dinner somewhere.
	Lawrence Schell, Lancaster, California, 15554.
	His donation is an attempt at sending some karma your way.
	You.
	You're eager to sell the Sierra and hope this helps.
	As Adam knows, 777 is the highest possible setting on an aircraft responder.
	And his donation is double 777.
	Yeah, and it's highly appreciated, and yes, it is still for sale, and the market is crap.
	It sucks.
	I need to sell this aircraft.
	November 277, Delta Sierra.
	Shane Brady in Plattsburgh, Missouri, 155.10, which is 100-plus double nickels on the dime.
	Nice.
	And he says that he thinks the vegans are more plentiful in the no-gender knighthood ranks than the general population.
	Well, by percentage.
	What do we have with these vegans?
	How can they listen to this show?
	They love us, John, because we love animals.
	That's why.
	We do.
	We love the animals.
	We eat the good ones.
	We want animals to be healthy so we can eat them.
	Yeah, they should be healthy and live a nice life and die in peace.
	John Atwood Cotter, Arkansas, $100 even, wants to see the mojo works in proxy.
	My daughter and son-in-law are both laid off.
	Give me some good karma.
	This is for the Karma Club, which is still working.
	And we're going to set up a webpage that says Karma Club and everyone who has an anecdote.
	Here's the deal I want to do.
	We're going to have anyone who's...
	You have to agree to this before we put your name up.
	Or we'll put your name up, but we would like you to put your name and email address up for verification.
	Yes.
	So if anybody doubts this, you know, they say, oh, these guys are just full of crap.
	We want people to list their name and email so that someone can send them.
	Is this true that you got a job after donating and so you can say yes?
	Yes.
	So there's also a LinkedIn profile, which is a no-agenda show.
	I'm not quite sure how we link that into the Karma Club, but there may be something there that we can use it for.
	Well, yeah.
	I don't know.
	We lost the stream.
	Did I get the John Smith Alpharetta Georgia?
	Actually, he's in St.
	Pete, Florida.
	Douchebag opt-out program.
	No.
	Bring me that again.
	Did I get the thing about the mojo works and proxy my daughter and son-in-law both laid off?
	Yeah.
	John Smith from St.
	Pete, Florida, says he's proposing the douchebag opt-out.
	If you can afford it, it's been more than 30 days since you've given.
	You're a douchebag.
	I understand if money is tight, but come on, guys, $5 to $25.
	I'm here by opting out of being a douchebag for this month.
	Okay.
	John Smith, you are not.
	Douchebag!
	And he gave us a nice hundred dollars.
	Todd Webster in Fort Worth, Texas, 99.99 is a test of the Karma Club.
	He has twin boys turning 16 on the 23rd, Brandon and Blake, and his stepson, Scott, just out of the Army, all looking for work.
	This is 3333 from each of them to test the theory.
	All right.
	And then we have Sterling Ellsworth, our old buddy in Santa Barbara, who gave $77.77 the 13th time.
	And he says, as this is appropriate, as this may occur on April 15th, as my profession is of a taxing nature.
	Keep up the good work.
	Oh no!
	So we have an account at night.
	Wait a minute, we might as well play it.
	Hey, it's April 15th.
	Who are you going to get your money to?
	I don't know.
	Oh yeah, Adam and John in No Agenda.
	Yeah, on no agenda in the morning.
	Awesome.
	Okay, Picasso gave us $70 out of New York City.
	And Paul Vela, I don't know, it was Tauchester, North Hampshire, United Kingdom.
	Yeah, that sounds right.
	Second, $66.66.
	The other $33.33.
	When you get three shows, that means you'll be giving us $99.99.
	Ray Manguel in Jersey City, Jersey, $63.10.
	Double nickels on the dime, plus the $8 I won't be spending on the douchebag Sean Hannity's book.
	Someone sent me a picture of Sean Hannity's book next to Summer's Eve in the supermarket.
	Oh, that's funny.
	Twisted lamb in the Netherlands, $58, a belated happy birthday to me.
	Snora Selmer?
	Yes, Snora Selmer in Norway, $55.10, two nickels on the dime.
	Richard Terry, Houston, Texas.
	David Nicholson, Buckinghamshire, $55.10 for both of them.
	Neil Henderson, UK. We've got a lot of UK all of a sudden.
	He's in Penicook, Scotland, spelled P-E-N-I-C-U-I-K. No one would ever guess that in the United States.
	So he won't call himself a douchebag.
	And then Michael Pocket from London.
	Oh, hold on a second.
	This is an important one.
	All right, I'll take it.
	Hi, Adam and John.
	I'm donating this amount as a birthday present for my friend John Robinson.
	I forgot it was his birthday on Monday, so I'm calling myself out as an incredible douchebag and hoping this makes amends.
	Recently, John sent in a link that Adam used about a vaccine that a note asked for a shout-out from me, but I somehow get the credit.
	Oh, okay, I guess we messed up.
	This is interesting.
	Please wish John a happy bladed No Agenda birthday and keep up the great work.
	Michael Pocket.
	There you go.
	It's another birthday shout out on No Agenda.
	It's your birthday, yeah!
	Brian King, consulting San Jose, California.
	Two niggles on the dime in honor of Minuteman Moss, the I-69 billboard videographer.
	John Sacco, Escondido, California.
	5510.
	Carl...
	Schweikert, Sacramento, California.
	He needs the car, 52 nickels on the dime.
	Aviation minute men, just like the SAC in the 60s, ready to launch in 15 minutes.
	Yeah, we need that.
	We need that.
	Serena Swanson, which adds, I think there's number 32 in the women column.
	From Bristol.
	From Bristol.
	It's because I guess she came from North Carolina, and she's happy that every time I mention North Carolina, which, by the way, makes the best barbecue technically in the world, and they actually have four distinct types of barbecue within the state.
	Very interesting.
	Some North Carolina trivia on the show.
	It's quite interesting.
	Very interesting, John.
	It's amazingly interesting.
	She goes on and on.
	And David C. Pugh from North Canton, Ohio.
	Been listening for a year and now he feels he's still a douchebag.
	Oh no!
	Douchebag!
	Boris Prince, Hamburg, Germany.
	Hamburg in the morning.
	Deutschland!
	Deutschland.
	Mark Lemberg.
	Yes, Deutschland.
	What am I thinking?
	Mark Lemberg in Rotterdam.
	50 bucks.
	And this is for hookers and blowers.
	He also calls himself a douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	I'm not donating it earlier.
	Now, let's get to our nights and we'll be done with this.
	I think there's a few others.
	Look down the notes and see if there's anything else we need to talk about.
	And I'll read from Travis Bauer's note.
	I discovered no agenda in the fall of 2009.
	It's quickly become the single piece of media I look forward to receiving every week.
	Your deconstructions, analysis, and commentary are quickly becoming legendary.
	No other podcast has made me literally laugh out loud as much as you have.
	And he quotes me saying, hey doc, I can't pee, man.
	I think I might have been the tech hippie.
	The tech hippie.
	John, I first discovered you, and he talks about when he discovered Adam, and then he goes on to say, I'm a 26-year-old software engineer who's blessed enough to have done well in this economy, and we appreciate people who are doing well in the economy and helping us.
	So I'm enclosing the first, I think.
	First, double dimes on the quarter donation.
	I hope the enclosed donation will help you on your journey to the third show.
	Lastly, don't expect to read all this on the show, but I do have a chance to get a plug-in.
	If I have a chance to get a plug-in, it'll be for my upcoming iPhone app Bookie, which is, I think, right down our alley.
	I've established a business relationship with Bodog.com and providing, I think, the first iPhone app to get real-time sportsbook information, the spread, money line, over, under, etc.
	Wait, what's it called again?
	Bookie.
	B-O-O-K-I-E as in bookie.
	Assuming Steve Jobs lets it through, it should be in store in the coming weeks.
	Consider my donation an upfront cut of the proceeds.
	Nice!
	Nice.
	Well, I think he's right.
	I don't think we've ever received a donation of this amount of double dimes on the quarter, which has no other significance other than it's hookers and blow for us, John.
	Yay!
	All right, time to do our knightings.
	Travis Bowers, please kneel before the commission.
	As John, you might as well get your sword out for this one as well.
	This is going to be a big one.
	As we now officially pronounce the Sir Travis Bower, Knight of the No Agenda Roundtable, please enjoy our hookers and blow and our gambling betting salon.
	And our second knight for the day, I'm going to draw the smaller sword for that because he seems to be a little smaller than Travis.
	Has consistently been donating to achieve his knighthood.
	And I like his name.
	It fits perfectly.
	Please kneel before us, Sterling Ellsworth, as we now knight thee, Sir Sterling Ellsworth!
	Join us here at the Knights of the No Agenda Roundtable.
	For a thousand dollars, support or more, you two can become a knight.
	Donate today!
	I don't know.
	Okay.
	What do you mean you don't know?
	Hey, hey, hey!
	Blow me!
	Hey, my arm!
	You don't know.
	What do you mean you don't know?
	No, we appreciate everybody who contributes.
	And we need more of the $5 a month subscribers, by the way.
	They really sustain the bottom line.
	And so take a look at the NoAgendaShow.com or Dvorak.org slash NA or ChannelDvorak slash NA..com and see if you can contribute.
	To the cause.
	And we get some producers next week, so we have more than just the two.
	So I want to, and by the way, we do need and appreciate this help.
	We are a publicly supported show.
	We do not do advertising.
	We're not going to get sold down the river by anything.
	As long as we're providing some service to you, and entertainment, I hope, to the tune of four hours a week, 16 hours a month minimum.
	We hope that as long as we're supported by you, we keep doing the show.
	And we can get to our third show, and we can continue to fill up the stream.
	We appreciate sustaining producers of the No Agenda stream.
	Did you mention that at dvorak.org?
	Yeah, dvorak.org slash NAS. We need some help there, too.
	And that is ever-developing.
	That's going to be great.
	That's the future of broadcasting, by the way.
	Well, if you want some actual information that is, an actual entertainment that isn't bull, yeah, that's the way to do it.
	Well, I mean, you're going to get bull this way, too, but what I'm saying is that someday people are going to be driving around in their cars with a WiMAX card in the radio, and they're going to be picking this stuff up like the No Agenda stream over the WiMAX in their car while driving.
	Well, stoned.
	Could be.
	Stoned by the CIA. Yay.
	Let me do my Law of the Land thing and then you can get into it.
	It's kind of real newsy.
	So this is on Celebrity Apprentice, which I do not watch.
	I watched one episode, like the first one, and it was Bret Michaels from Poison.
	Cindy Lauper, who I adore.
	She is a fantastic girl.
	At least up until today.
	And she's amazing, because she's really twisted.
	And she comes out with this on Celebrity Apprentice.
	This afternoon I signed into law the Matthew Shepard and James Burke Jr.
	Hate Crimes Prevention Act.
	I'm here in Washington to take time out and listen to what the president has to say about this hate crime prevention act.
	We'll finally add federal protections against crimes based on gender, disability, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
	I get all choked up when I'm saying it because I've been working years to get this together.
	And as of today, it will be the law of the land.
	It's the law of the land.
	It's the law of the land.
	I don't like it.
	Yeah, I know what you're saying, and I'm kind of on the same boat with you.
	I find it something...
	They're trying to make laws sound like they're constitutional and institutional, and it's irksome.
	Yeah, yeah, I agree.
	Okay.
	What you got, Johnny Boy?
	I mean, I got some good stuff, but I'm laying low for you.
	Let's go to talking about one of the hot topics of the month, of the year, of the decade, bullying.
	Oh, you know, this is in Gitmo Nation East bullying.
	This whole thing started about five years ago.
	And a whole bunch of laws have been created based upon this bullying.
	And by the way, back in the day when we were kids, John, you know, you go out in the schoolyard and you kick the crap out of the bully.
	And, you know, the scrawny guy always wins.
	So anyway, bullying seems to be some issue.
	Meanwhile, they had Bill Cosby and this dingbat woman named Dr.
	Irving on the Larry King show, and they were not answering.
	You know, the King must have been beside himself, because this was one of the worst segments he's ever done.
	But Cosby seems to be senile.
	Nobody wants to say this.
	Really?
	Well, John...
	He's just, you know, he went on about computers and he can barely I'm sure he's still good on stage.
	We used to go see him at Tahoe.
	I think we've seen him do stand-up about three times.
	I saw him when I was a kid when he was starting off and he was at the Berkeley Community Theater during the days of Jonathan Winters and people like that.
	The thousand-year-old man.
	Anyway, Bob Newhart, I saw him on stage.
	Anyway, so Cosby was always great on stage.
	But this is ridiculous.
	Listen to this Cosby ranting about computers and bullies.
	The bullying and you stay on it.
	I just call it a form of hate and hatred.
	If you don't realize you're bullying, then somebody tells you and you stop it.
	What makes a kid, Bill, do you think susceptible to bullying?
	Depression.
	I think a kid maybe have low self-esteem.
	They need more jello.
	Want to belong or have someone or people at home not giving the strength or looking at them.
	What is this based on?
	This is just based on Blather.
	He's got no documentation.
	He's just rambling, but it gets better.
	A child and saying, you know, how do you feel today?
	I think also that these kids have too much time in a room, alone, at home, with a computer.
	And this becomes very important to them.
	That becomes another life, one that they disappear out of the home and away from the parent or the love caregiver.
	Hey Bill, my kid disappeared.
	What's a love caregiver?
	I thought it was a caregiver.
	Now it's a love caregiver.
	John, I'm a love caregiver.
	And I love care give to you, my friend.
	But they also, this is the computer.
	This is a new life that kids get into and want to join and want to be a part of.
	What happened to playing with sticks?
	And when they see these things, they're able to tune in and see a group of people beating somebody up because the kids who join in also to get together, to pick on someone.
	There's a group I saw on a news thing in Washington, D.C. about four years ago that four or five girls going up and down the subway following A girl and beat her up because they knew that she was still a virgin.
	You know, before you go any further, I was bullied as a kid.
	I was bullied severely.
	I was beaten up, bullied.
	I was scrawny, awkward, had Tourette's Syndrome, a stupid name, until I got on the radio.
	And then all of a sudden I became cool overnight.
	Where are you now, bitches?
	Anyway, it's not about you.
	No, I just want to make it about me.
	So here's what I... But there's a subtle message, I think, that's going on.
	You know, one of the things that...
	And I'm going to do a huge rant and a little research on this in one of the future shows.
	But let me just see.
	Cosby touched on it.
	Now I want you to listen to Dr.
	Irving on Who Gets Bullied, followed by the causes of bullying, and see if you find a common thread here.
	Okay.
	Here's Dr.
	Irving on Who Gets Bullied.
	Dr.
	Irving, what kind of kids get bullied?
	Children who have low self-esteem.
	Okay, and now the causes of bullying.
	Dr.
	Irving, why do people bully?
	Do we know the psychology of bullying?
	I think people bully because of low self-esteem.
	Wait a minute.
	You get bullied because you have low self-esteem and you bully because you have low self-esteem.
	How does that work?
	That's what I'm wondering.
	Cosby mentioned low self-esteem, too.
	Now, we know one of the things that's been going on in this country is the self-esteem movement, where there's no grades.
	Everybody hug and tell each other a secret.
	There's no grades.
	There's no scoring.
	There's no competitive sports.
	There's nothing that you can...
	You don't get a D. You can't fail.
	Everyone wins.
	You can't fail.
	Everybody's a winner and all that sort of thing.
	That's what...
	You know, this is like, you know, now we got the bullying thing with the self-esteem.
	The self-esteem movement, which I'll discuss in some detail in the future, began some years back by, as I said, I believe it was a psychologist.
	And they started promoting this in the schools.
	And essentially, it's helped dumb down because there's no, you know, everybody's a winner.
	You don't have to really know anything.
	It's dumbed down kids.
	It also, I believe, is partially responsible for what's happened in the homeschooling movement where there's a sub-segment of these people called the unschoolers.
	And unschoolers believe that you shouldn't teach the kids anything at all.
	They don't need to learn how to read.
	They'll do it when they feel like it.
	And this whole thing is part of the dumbing down process of this country that we've been going through.
	And now we see how they're slipping in the self-esteem thing as being related to bullying.
	And if you're a bully, you have low self-esteem.
	If you're being bullied, you got low self-esteem.
	How does that work?
	And I think it came out pretty clear that this is just pure blather and these people should be ashamed of themselves.
	And I would say Cosby, too.
	Cosby, a friend of mine used to book him for corporate events three times a week.
	Three times a week.
	He would walk from his New York apartment to his first gig.
	He'd sit on a chair, a chair turned around backwards, smoke a cigar, talk for 45 minutes, take $100,000 and walk to the next one.
	Unbelievable.
	That sounds about right.
	Yeah, $100,000.
	Back in those days, absolutely.
	I was just raking it in.
	You know, someone else who should be ashamed of himself is Stink, as I always call him.
	Stink.
	So, you know, Mr.
	Save the Rainforest, and I'm so politically correct, and Trudy and I have tantric sex for days on end.
	Tantric sex?
	How 60s?
	He got a $2 million fee, what people are calling blood money, for playing at a secret concert for one of the world's most brutal dictators, Karimov of Uzbekistan.
	Oh, that Uzbekistan guy.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah.
	So he went there for the two million, so he sold out.
	Totally.
	Well, these elites are always sellouts, and he's always like, ooh, and Stink comes on stage with that messed up guitar.
	It has like 29 strings from some dude with a plate in his lip.
	And like, oh, he's so amazing.
	Stink is wonderful.
	Oh, yeah.
	Bono's got that same.
	Him and Bono are the same.
	Bonehead.
	Ah, yeah.
	Well, Bono's getting his.
	Or Bono, we should say.
	He's getting his with Palm.
	Well, not necessarily.
	If he gets bought out, he might get out of there.
	Yeah, well, you're right.
	They do have all the warrants and everything.
	So, everybody's wondering whether or not they're talking about the new Supreme Court justice.
	Ah, whether it could be Hillary Clinton.
	Yes, I have this on my list.
	It could be Hillary Clinton.
	Wait a minute.
	If that happens, I have to suicide myself.
	If that actually takes place, that the wife of becomes a Supreme Court justice, this can't be happening in my lifetime.
	Yeah, and apparently it's not going to be happening.
	But the way that they tell you, the way that the powers that be will let you know is kind of by beating around the bush a little bit.
	But when I heard this interview with Chris Matthews talking to Chuck Schumer about Hillary becoming the next Supreme Court justice, you just have to listen to Schumer.
	Go about saying no way in hell without ever saying it.
	Wellesley, brilliant by many standards.
	Would she make a great lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court?
	Well, let me tell you, I think she's doing a great job as Secretary of State, Chris, and I talk to her quite often.
	She's very happy as Secretary of State, so I imagine that that's not going to come to pass.
	I believe the President has said that himself.
	But if you were her, wouldn't you want to have a lifetime appointment?
	She has said publicly that she'd only like to serve at state for a couple more years.
	It's a brutal posting.
	But she could be in court for 30 years if you look at the life of Stevens.
	You're right that Hillary is brilliant, but knowing her as I do, when she takes a job, she gets it done.
	She's in the middle of many, many different, very important issues, doing an incredibly good job on many different issues.
	My guess is, knowing her, that she wants to finish out the job at state.
	So I guess she's out.
	Matthews, who seems to be in love with Hillary, I mean, he went on with this interview asking, well, you know, after there's a next Supreme Court, she'll be out of state.
	Maybe she can get the job then, you know, in like two or three years.
	And Schumer was just like, you know, just about told him to change the subject.
	It's like, no, no.
	Well, it better not happen.
	That would be so wrong.
	No, it would be bad.
	So the one thing I was following, because, well, first of all, the international media, very interestingly, got kicked out of the nuclear summit.
	They were allowed to tape the first two minutes of the opening, and the media is pretty pissed about this.
	And then they all got kicked out.
	Okay.
	Yeah, hilarious.
	Yeah, it's like, okay, so we're not allowed to report on this nuclear summit.
	And I've done a little bit of research, and you may remember something called the Baruch Plan, John?
	Yeah.
	No, I don't remember the Baruch plan.
	The Baruch plan was instigated, well, you can, it's on Wikipedia, you can look it up.
	It was instigated, I think, in 1946.
	There's a Bernard Baruch thing, right?
	Yes, and it was essentially what started off the Cold War, really, when you think about it.
	And the whole idea is, and here's the theory that is attached to it, The theory is, take all nuclear power away from nationalist governments so that then the elites, and I'll just name them, the Rothschilds, will control it all.
	And of course they have their space-based delivery system to have complete control.
	And they've tried this, obviously, before, and it didn't work.
	With the Rothschild rockets?
	Yeah, the Rothschild rockets, exactly.
	But this is really interesting, because Rockefeller was involved with this Baruch plan, and all the right-wing talk guys were playing the sound clip of Obama saying, whether you like it or not, we're the nuclear superpower...
	Which, of course, is a weird thing to say.
	But this is a plan that has been in development for decades.
	And it seems like they're trying it again.
	And it might actually happen this time.
	Although China and Russia don't seem to really be on board.
	For good reason.
	But look into the Baruch plan.
	Alright, I will.
	Here's a story I think is a little more interesting than that.
	Yeah, then global thermonuclear war controlled by bankers.
	Well, if that happens, we're out of a job.
	And out of life.
	But this one, it's hard to find this, but it ran in AvWeek.
	Oh, yes.
	In AvWeek blogs.
	Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about.
	Yeah, that was an amazing article.
	Let me find it.
	Franco Frattini, the Italian Foreign Affairs Minister, believes that one of the ways of strengthening a common European identity is by building a defense Europe.
	That is to say, a European army.
	Yeah.
	Which, of course, we on this show, and of course, even before we started doing this show, we were very skeptical about the EU and how it's going to end up having a civil war in an army or something's going to happen that's going to cause another damn war because that's what these Europeans do.
	And no matter what they think they're up to.
	Anyway, it goes on and on, and you can see this coming down Broadway.
	I would say within the next two or three years, during the era of our show, there will be initiatives that will start cropping up, starting with, you know, obviously this is in the wind when this guy starts bringing it up.
	The mainstream media has gotten, they've done nothing to, you know, what we should be doing in the mainstream media, saying, hey, wait a minute, you guys shouldn't be doing this.
	But that's not what they're going to do.
	So I wasn't quite done with Obama because something really weird happened.
	He, over the weekend...
	And this is just being reported now.
	Over the weekend, all of a sudden, the press got at 920.
	Let me see.
	The press pool is supposed to assemble.
	There was a report.
	It's like, oh, the president is going to soccer game.
	Oh, yeah.
	This is where he disappeared.
	Yeah.
	You don't like that story?
	Well, I mean, I heard the Rush Limbaugh deconstruction of it, which was probably the most interesting.
	What did he say?
	Well, he said there was a number of things that happened.
	One, that he disappears to go to a soccer game.
	They did research.
	The soccer field was in the wrong part of town.
	He couldn't have gotten there.
	Yeah, an hour and a half.
	Yeah.
	Right.
	And he never explained it or anything like that.
	Now, I don't know that the guy, maybe he had to take a shit.
	I mean, who knows?
	It seems to me they don't follow him everywhere, do they?
	Yeah, of course.
	Well, the fact is they called the media, said, oh, we got to go.
	And then the media all rushed, you know, to go away.
	And then before they could even, oh, he's already left, he's gone back.
	So it was kind of like sending the media all over town.
	Well, that's kind of funny.
	As a joke, yeah, maybe.
	As a joke?
	I think they should keep doing that.
	Yeah.
	There was a...
	No one cares about this anymore, obviously, but the Kursk, of course, was the Russian atomic submarine that sank, and there was all kinds of, oh, you know, what did they say?
	It was like they...
	What was the cause of that, of the Kursk?
	Like, a torpedo tube exploded or something weird like that, and it was a...
	It was an accident, was the whole point.
	So I've got pictures of the curse being raised, and there is such an obvious hole.
	They sawed this thing in half to raise it, but they sawed it off right in front of the hole, which is indented.
	It's so obvious that something penetrated the hole like a torpedo.
	Oh, really?
	Yeah, it's amazing.
	You've got to see this picture.
	Hold on, let me Skype it to you.
	It's like, what?
	Of course, again, no one's going to care.
	No, of course, that's old news.
	We still want to know whether Pamela Anderson and that Gosselin...
	Are they going to win?
	Are they going to win?
	Exactly.
	But look at the hole.
	Just look at the hole.
	It's amazing.
	Look at the hole, John.
	It's really good.
	Another thing...
	What's forum?
	This is interesting.
	911missinglinks.com?
	Yeah, it's an interesting little site.
	Massive Fire...
	Where's the picture?
	Scroll down.
	Oh, it's down at the bottom.
	Oops.
	See that hole?
	No, come on.
	It's not scrolling.
	Oh, wow.
	It's in the show notes.
	You can go look at it later.
	Last night, a massive fireball lit up the sky in the Midwest.
	Visible for 15 minutes, starting around 10pm.
	Seen over the northern sky, moving from west to east.
	15 minutes, and then sonic booms, and then it sped away.
	Well, they showed a movie of this thing, and it wasn't 15 minutes.
	It was like 15 seconds.
	Well, of course.
	They're only showing like some one frame per second video from security cans.
	I'm sure that there are plenty of people who have actual video of this and will start showing up in the next couple of days.
	But this fire, I mean, it's not to be ignored.
	You saw the video, right?
	I was like, whoa.
	Yeah, it was like it was a meteor.
	Uh-huh.
	Sure.
	Okay.
	You know, there are meteors, you know, and they do come into the atmosphere so often.
	You're aware of this.
	Yeah, but not for 15 minutes.
	I think the 15 minutes is bogus.
	I think you're assuming that that is an accurate depiction.
	Well, let's wait for more amateur video that comes in.
	All right, when the amateur video comes in, it was 15 minutes.
	That's a good point.
	Because if it was 15 minutes, it's like the crazy stuff that was happening at these tea party things.
	You know, there's plenty of people with video cameras, there's plenty of people with video capability on their phone, and if it was 15 minutes, they would have taken, like if it was going on and I was here 15 minutes, it was going on 15, I would look at it and say, oh my God, I would get my camera, I'd go down and get my camera, I'd probably lose about two minutes at the most, and I'd be filming it from the 13 minute From the two-minute mark through 13 minutes.
	There should be one of those videos.
	Well, let's wait for it.
	I'm just bringing it to everyone's attention.
	Well, if it comes up, you'll be the first, I'm sure, to find it.
	You want to listen to this jabroni, the Michael Spector, the denialist?
	Oh, you know, let's put that off her neck till now.
	That guy just irks me to such an extreme.
	Well, the fact that what irked me, and this is the guy who wrote the book Denialism, how irrational thinkers...
	Yeah, by the way, if you don't think global warming is happening, then you also don't believe in evolution.
	This is the latest beam they've got.
	Oh, come on.
	Let's play this.
	Oh, I want to rile you up.
	Let's play this guy.
	It's fun when you get really angry about him.
	And the thing is, this is at a TED conference.
	Ted should be ashamed of itself for allowing this guy to speak.
	All these people are sitting there going like, yeah, oh, he's so funny.
	Oh, yeah, he's great.
	And he's like vaccines and he's harping on Jenny McCarthy.
	Here, listen, this is the everyone's so important Ted conference.
	Ted, Ted, where the elites gather ideas worth spreading.
	Ted.
	Let's pretend right here we have a machine.
	A big machine.
	A cool Tettish machine.
	And it's a time machine.
	And everyone in this room has to get into it.
	And you can go backwards.
	You can go forwards.
	You cannot stay where you are.
	And I wonder what you'd choose.
	Because I've been asking my friends this question a lot lately.
	And they all want to go back.
	I don't know.
	They want to go back before there were automobiles or Twitter or American Idol.
	I don't know.
	What kind of friends do you have, douche?
	I'm convinced that there's some sort of pull to nostalgia, to wishful thinking, and I understand that.
	I'm not part of that crowd, I have to say.
	I don't want to go back, and it's not because I'm adventurous.
	It's because possibilities on this planet, they don't go back, they go forward.
	So I want to get in the machine, and I want to go forward.
	This is the greatest time there's ever been on this planet.
	By any measure that you wish to choose, health, wealth, mobility...
	Hey, John, I think you might actually have a time machine.
	What do you think?
	Yeah, you know, the thing is, an overlooked aspect of this stupid analogy is that most people who had a brain would want to go back.
	I'd want to go back 10 years, for example, and I could parlay the Super Bowl bets with the World Series bets.
	I mean, I could come out a billionaire.
	Because this is a bigger deal than that.
	A kid born in New Delhi today can expect to live as long as the richest man in the world did 100 years ago.
	Think about that.
	It's an incredible fact.
	I can't listen to this guy.
	You're right.
	It's an incredible fact.
	Is that what he said?
	This guy's usage of these types of constructions that he uses is so annoying.
	It's an incredible fact that a kid, you know, whatever he's...
	I mean, everything this guy does...
	Oh, wait, listen to some more.
	I'm getting you.
	I'm getting you.
	You know, I love it.
	Tell them to move to Mumbai and get it over with.
	No longer exist hardly.
	You know what those things are?
	Vaccines, modern medicine, our ability to feed billions of people, those are triumphs of the scientific method.
	And to my mind, the scientific method, trying stuff out, seeing if it works, changing it when it doesn't, is one of the great accomplishments of humanity.
	The science is in!
	I encourage everyone.
	I'm a huge fan of the scientific method.
	Yeah.
	But we're not seeing the scientific method when people are phoning up statistics and making things up as they go along and this guy subscribes to it or when some corporate, dominating corporate company comes in and forces people to take the swine flu vaccine when there's no real epidemic because they've changed a couple of laws.
	This is corruption.
	This is not scientific method.
	This guy's a stooge for one of these big companies.
	I'd like to know which one.
	I hate this guy.
	Let's talk about some of the new drugs that are coming.
	Some of the vaccines.
	Two anti-obesity vaccines approved for long-term treatment.
	Wait a minute, it's an anti-obesity vaccine?
	So what virus or what bacteria is it attacking and preventing?
	It's the fat virus.
	Don't vaccines prevent you from getting something?
	It's the fat virus, John.
	You surely have heard of it.
	Then we have a new vaccine that may help cure skin cancer, another fine viral disease.
	Wait, you used the word cure.
	Yes, cure.
	Cure is associated with medicines, not with vaccines.
	Vaccines are preventative.
	The new vaccine called OncoVex attacks tumor cells, leaving healthy cells undamaged and carries agents.
	That is a treatment.
	That's not a vaccine.
	And my favorite, my favorite, from Gitmo Nation.
	Wait a minute.
	Along with everything else we're dealing with, they've changed definitions again on us.
	Yeah.
	This is, you know, nudity is pornography.
	The same problem with changing definitions to confuse the idiotic public.
	This is all that's going on here.
	It's called doublespeak.
	Yeah, it's totally doublespeak.
	This is right out of 1984.
	World...
	Let's just change the word.
	A world premiere from Gitmo Nation Lowlands from Rotterdam, the Erasmus Hospital.
	They have a vaccine against asbestos cancer, another virus.
	And then a disturbing report, and this is where you really want to watch it, from the Winnipeg Free Press.
	The story is a little long-winded, so I'm not going to get into it.
	But there was the Canadian HIV Vaccine Initiative, Had shortlisted four consortiums, I think it's consortia, but they write consortiums, to host a vaccine plant for HIV, or as we say politically correctly, HIV-AIDS. And so there's a lot of really good people who know how to build vaccine facilities, and they're all in this big tender.
	And then a report comes out saying, none of these guys are good enough.
	Who wrote the report?
	The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, who apparently are in charge of all vaccines now.
	This is not good.
	This is not good.
	And I say we should be very careful.
	They're also meddling in the educational system, which we'll eventually talk about when I put together a number.
	The clips keep growing and the information gets worse, and it's just taking me forever to report on this.
	But there is one thing I do want to get off.
	Are you still on that topic or can I... No, please move along.
	I got one more, but please move along.
	I don't want to get the show wrapped up, but I do want to bring this one up.
	And this one, I know that you're going to cringe a little bit because this is on the Rachel Maddow show, but she's the one.
	She's the only one that gets some of these women on her show, and she got Elizabeth Warren, the woman who heads up the committee that talks to Congress about TARP and why they're screwing up.
	And there's a misconception, apparently, that Warren points out, because Maddow has it, and if you listen to the Dvorak Horowitz Unplugged show that runs...
	It'll be on the stream today, yeah.
	It'll be on the stream today, and it'll be running after the show next on Sunday.
	Andrew seems to have the wrong impression, because everybody's got the wrong impression.
	This woman explains what TARP was really all about, according to the law itself, and she goes after the fact that the situation has worsened since TARP, and it's out of control, and she's going to report, and she did report, I think it was yesterday, to Congress, saying that you're not doing the job right, but all you have to do is listen to this, and you'll learn more from this.
	Hold on, I need a little more set up.
	Who exactly is Elizabeth Warren?
	She's a professor that has been given, I think she's at Princeton, and she is the head of the oversight committee that was created by Congress as part of TARP to make sure that they were doing it right.
	She's the head.
	And she's going to say they're not doing it right, I hope.
	Right.
	Because TARP was created to bail out banks, which weren't really banks.
	Right.
	See, this is a mistake.
	You just made the same mistake.
	No, no, let me finish.
	Let me finish.
	You interrupt me.
	It was created to bail out banks, which weren't really banks.
	They were investment companies, which then...
	Oh, hold on, my microphone is dying.
	Ah!
	Ah!
	So Adam uses a microphone that is a...
	No one's ever heard of this mic.
	It's called the Lectro, L-E-C-T-R-O. And he sounds good on it.
	You can imagine how good he'd sound on a real mic.
	It's called a Lectro, not E-Lectro.
	I said Lectro, L-E-C-T-R-O. And so it uses batteries.
	Yeah.
	Sorry about that.
	Okay, so these banks were not banks.
	They became banks.
	No, well, okay.
	Joining us now for the interview is Elizabeth Warren, Harvard Law Professor, Chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel for the TARP Bailout Funds.
	Professor Warren, thanks very much for coming back on the show.
	It's good to be here.
	Did I get that roughly right?
	TARP was supposed to be trying to stop foreclosures at the same time that it bailed out the banks.
	Bailing out the banks basically worked, but the foreclosures part of it really didn't.
	Actually, if you read the statute, what the statute talks about is not bailing out Wall Street banks.
	What the statute talks about is here's $700 billion to help repair the economy.
	Remember, it was supposed to be about troubled assets, mortgages that were in trouble.
	And it says, Congress says, the way we are going to measure the effectiveness of this program is what it does for unemployment, what it does for American savings, and really focus on what it does on home mortgage foreclosure.
	Right.
	I'm sorry.
	I rescind.
	It was actually initially called the stimulus, wasn't it?
	No, no, no.
	This is the tarp, to troubled assets.
	And what people are confusing is troubled assets, meaning property, as opposed to...
	Oh, as opposed to default swaps and the company.
	No, yeah, and that's not...
	Right.
	Well, that is an asset of sorts, but a bank that they were given, that they got all this money, a bank's not an asset, it's a company, it's a corporation.
	It was supposed to be for assets, just what you said, it was to increase savings, it was to lower unemployment, and it was to take care of the...
	Nobody gets that right.
	You didn't have it right.
	I didn't know it.
	Matt, I didn't know it.
	Horowitz doesn't know it.
	Nobody knows it.
	And nobody reports this.
	She talks about it in detail, and all she's saying now is that the whole thing is a fiasco.
	So the point is that everybody's got it wrong.
	This woman tries to explain it.
	The media is never going to explain it to the public.
	It's got nothing to do with banks.
	The banks just stole the money, basically.
	The TARP is about savings, it's about unemployment, and it's about mortgages.
	It's not about saving the banks.
	It's not about whether the banks were investment banks or whether the banks were real banks.
	It's got nothing to do with banks.
	The only reason the banks got any money in the first place was they could pass it down to take care of this mortgage problem, and they didn't do it.
	And then everybody says, oh, they bailed out the banks.
	They never bailed out the banks.
	The banks bailed out themselves by stealing the money.
	I still got a minute left.
	Will you get more pissed off?
	No, I'm done.
	How it works to stop this crisis.
	That's what Congress said it wanted for its $700 billion.
	So that's been your job as chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel is to monitor essentially what it's doing for unemployment and American savings and foreclosures.
	And the result is not positive.
	Well, we are now 15 months after Treasury has announced its program and tried to get it up and running, and basically 167,000 families have gotten into some kind of modification that we hope will turn out to be permanent, although there are going to be some problems with that down the line.
	But just to put that in some context, Every single month, 200,000 families are posted for foreclosure.
	That's where we stand right now.
	167,000 over 15 months have received assistance under this program, and every month, 200,000 families are posted for foreclosure.
	I really like this woman.
	She's sharp.
	She's a Supreme Court nominee.
	She's the one who should get if they want to put a woman on.
	Well, yeah, because who do we have as, who's that academic who is in charge of Obama's economic council?
	I don't know, I don't remember.
	The Betsy, the heavy woman?
	Yeah, I don't know, I can't remember.
	Yeah, who knows nothing.
	Yeah, no, she knows nothing.
	This woman's on the ball.
	And so she put the report out, and some people picked it up, you know, as the thing's not working.
	But still, most people are misinformed.
	They think it's about banks, and it's not.
	And the whole thing is a complete fiasco, and it's not doing anybody any good, except the banks and the guys and their bonuses.
	She goes on about that, too.
	She says, you know, money's supposed to be used for this, but they go into bonuses.
	And nobody who's complaining about it.
	I don't know.
	She's in trouble, man.
	She better watch her back.
	She can be in trouble all she wants.
	She's already got the reports filed.
	It's out there.
	People can dig it up and read it.
	Wow.
	But she did slide in under the radar.
	Wow.
	I'm definitely going to follow her.
	This is going on for the next couple months, right?
	They're doing all these congressional hearings.
	It's on C-SPAN every single day.
	Yeah, they were talking to the bankers over this week, and all the bankers were saying, you guys can screw yourselves.
	We got the money.
	We're sitting on it for good reason, because we don't like what we see.
	And I don't care if everybody goes out of business.
	We're not.
	And the Congress guys go, well, but, but, but, but, but, and that's the end of it.
	Shysters show up and take advantage of people's goodwill and generosity.
	Just send us cash.
	Unbelievable.
	Alright, to wrap it up.
	Pretty funny report about Haiti.
	The president has ordered all of the 12,000 troops.
	I thought it was 20, but now they're reporting 12.
	All of the 12,000 troops to no longer fly the American flag at their bases in Haiti because it could send the wrong message.
	We don't want to look like we're occupying Haiti.
	Yeah, no shit you don't want to look like because it's exactly what's happening.
	Of course we're occupying Haiti.
	And they're cranking it up again, John.
	I'm seeing more.
	Something is about to happen.
	Probably a lot of people are about to die because now they've got all the, you know, oh, Haiti, we need to help them.
	And they've got, what's his name, Wyclef Jean back in the picture.
	And now take down the Stars and Stripes.
	And of course, service personnel are like, what?
	This is not okay.
	And the analogy that's drawn by this article, USA Today, but Joe Davis, spokesman for the Veterans of Foreign Wars, says he's not bothered by the flag's absence.
	During the Gulf War in 1991, U.S. forces took control of the main airport in Kuwait, And briefly flew the American flag over their installation, but higher-ups ordered it taken down to avoid an impression that U.S. forces were conquerors.
	What an interesting analogy.
	It has nothing to do with earthquake relief.
	That's war.
	It's just unbelievable how the gall of these people...
	Yeah, well, you know, again, you get away with stuff, and you get away with stuff.
	We want to end the show with a downside.
	I'm not done.
	Can I just finish?
	Oh, you're going to make me even more depressed.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I am going to make you even more depressed.
	So, I'm looking at some financial news, and I see there's a company that has a huge presence, ever-growing according to their annual report, in Haiti.
	The company is DynCore.
	And Dyncor was just purchased by Cerberus.
	Is that how you pronounce it?
	I don't know.
	How do you spell it?
	C-E-R-B-E-R-U-S, which actually Cerberus is the three-headed dog that guards the gates of hell.
	Oh, good.
	Yeah.
	These guys are funny.
	This is the company that Dan Quayle, ex-Vice President Dan Quayle.
	Oh, the blood guy.
	Yeah, the plasma guy.
	They bought DynCorp for $1.5 billion dollars.
	And these guys, until you look into Dinecourt, it's unbelievable!
	You thought Blackwater was bad.
	Dinecourt, these are the real evil guys.
	Unbelievable what they're into.
	And they're in Haiti.
	Hey, good job, guys!
	What are they into?
	Building hotels!
	Oh, well, how's that evil?
	That's a good thing.
	It's unbelievable!
	They have 30,000 workers.
	And there's all kinds of, you get into it, it's like a rabbit hole.
	You just keep on going down about this DynCorp that just won a lot.
	What does the blood guys got to do with hotel building?
	Well, DynCorp is an investment firm.
	Oh, okay.
	Yeah, they're just an investment firm, of which Dan Quayle is the chairman.
	I thought you said Cerebus bought Dyncore.
	I'm sorry.
	I'm sorry.
	Cerebus is the investment company.
	Dyncore is a government contractor.
	Yeah, but I thought Cerebus...
	Okay, but Cerebus had something to do with blood.
	Wasn't it the plasma guys?
	Yeah, no.
	They bought the plasma company for $80 million and sold it for $1.8 billion.
	Oh, they got out of the plasma.
	Yeah, they got out of the plasma business.
	But that's not bad for your shareholders.
	No.
	But this sale comes on the heels of something very interesting where there was a lawsuit where there was like a sealed bid contract for work in Afghanistan and they were cut out.
	And then they sued the government and won.
	And now they've got the contract.
	Yeah, and it's for something called...
	You're right, it's just depressing.
	But go look at Dyncor, D-Y-N-C-O-R-P. These guys are the bloodsuckers.
	And then to be owned by a company called Cerberus, which is the three-headed dog that guards the gates of hell.
	I mean, could they make it any more obvious?
	Well, why not?
	Yeah.
	So that's your financial news.
	That's where your actual tax money is going.
	When you sign that check today, when you file today, know that Dan Quayle and the three-headed dog that guards the gates of hell is taking your money and putting it into Haiti to build hotels.
	Yeah, well, so the Clintons can have a nice penthouse.
	Yeah, because that's where they met.
	Isn't that where they met?
	Yeah, no, that's where they honeymooned.
	Their honeymoon?
	All right.
	Who honeymoons in Haiti?
	Future owners, of course.
	Yes.
	Let's go honeymoon in our future investment company.
	I can just see it.
	They got the brochure.
	Here's Bill and Hillary.
	Like, oh, honey, we can own Haiti in a couple of years.
	Look, they have timeshares available.
	Yeah.
	They just have to wait until the earthquake machine is flipped on.
	Let's go honeymoon there.
	And we can take a look around.
	And we can stake our claim.
	Well, if you want to finish the show on a lighter note.
	Yeah, I'd like to.
	I have a Law& Order clip, which is not that light, but it has a message at the end Dick Wolf had to throw in.
	Oh, wait.
	Another Law& Order?
	Yeah, there's Law& Order SVU with a message at the end.
	Can we then just say that there's this big article about NBC now admitting to behavioral programming?
	Did you read about this?
	No, but we talked about it.
	We already knew it.
	But now they're actually saying that all of their shows...
	Have behavioral programming, so stuff like recycle, volunteerism.
	All the messages.
	The Obama administration put a list out that they had to do these, or they should do them.
	They should volunteer to do these.
	Recycle, exercise, eat right.
	Global warming.
	Global warming is real.
	It exists.
	Take your flu shot.
	By the way, that was on Saturday Night Live.
	They had a nice little flu shot vaccine poster in the background there in the classroom.
	All really good little mind control tricks that we're not falling for.
	And now we have something from Special Victims Unit.
	What is it?
	It's during a rape.
	Somebody's trying to catch this rapist.
	And at the very end, the district attorney closes the little scene with a message to the police.
	Essentially, the Constitution is the reason all these bad things are happening.
	If you don't like it, get out and leave.
	Here we go.
	One victim's dead and the other won't cooperate.
	Can we force her hand?
	I'm calling Paxton to get that subpoena.
	You don't call the ADA without clearing it with me.
	Look, either Beverly Neal clears Foster or she'll put him in a cage.
	And what makes you think that she'll be able to make a positive ID after more than a decade?
	We won't know until we twist her on.
	Yeah, but why trust her and not Rena West?
	They were both attacked with a knife.
	Black on black crime.
	If Neil picks Foster, he can't claim cross-race ID. Race shouldn't make a difference.
	Research study says it does.
	Well, it doesn't matter now.
	Foster's in the tombs.
	There's been another rape.
	Where?
	Vacant lot, Midtown.
	Victim is a minor.
	Everybody goes.
	Checking out, boss?
	Get used to it.
	Standing order at Central Dispatch says I get called when you do.
	It's just a baby.
	Lynn Rivers, 16.
	Parents are out of town.
	Preliminary COD is a sanguination.
	She's got several slashes to her throat and chest.
	Carotid severed.
	Well, she wasn't killed here.
	There's not enough blood.
	No fluids either.
	The victim's cell phone show 14 missed calls from Angelina Lupina.
	Any forensics?
	More green fibers.
	Any forensics?
	She's practically covered with them.
	She was raped in the van, then dumped in.
	Foster wasn't sitting in a cell.
	I'd put him right back in the box.
	Foster isn't in the tombs anymore.
	He made bail.
	What?
	It's his right.
	He violated an RO and Rena West ID'd him.
	Yeah, well, like I told you, that isn't enough evidence.
	Certainly not enough to argue a man without bail.
	How much?
	Judge said it at $50,000.
	So he throws five grand at a bondsman and he's free to murder?
	You know what?
	Blame the Constitution, okay?
	You want to be a prosecutor?
	Go to law school.
	Or better yet, just do your jobs, guys.
	Oh, Dick Wolf is great.
	I like the little scene where iced tea, or is it ice cube?
	I don't remember which of the two.
	But anyway, he says, oh, statistics show.
	I can imagine cops standing around arguing statistics.
	Oh, stop.
	Let me get my table out here.
	I just read a study.
	Alright, let's wrap this puppy up.
	Yeah, so just on the heels of that, NBC, so just proof that they put this shit in from this article about NBC programming your brain on law and order investigated a cash for clunker scam.
	Yeah, they're just putting it in there.
	So these are the ones they tell you about, but it's obviously quite rare.
	We catch quite a few.
	We don't watch this stuff that much, but you don't have to watch it for more than five minutes.
	You catch two or three of these things.
	We should make a vaccine for that.
	Yes.
	Propaganda.
	I think this show is vaccine for that.
	So take your shots.
	Take your shots.
	Right now you get two a week.
	Maybe, maybe, maybe one day we'll get three.
	If we can keep going with support like we received from Travis Bowers, that would be good.
	Doesn't have to come all in one go, like double dimes on the quarter.
	But two dimes on the quarter is pretty good.
	Yeah.
	Alright, so the stuff that we didn't get to today includes the Gitmo Nation East elections, which we have to talk about.
	They're doing it American style now, which I believe will include rigging of the voting machines.
	Yes, that's the American style.
	To make it authentic.
	What else did you not get to?
	Well, I'm still going to do the thing on education, charter schools, the Gates Foundation being heavily involved in that.
	And some of the propaganda floating around that situation.
	And charter schools are bogus, by the way, it turns out.
	Yeah.
	And we missed an amazing two to the head story, which I'll keep for Sunday.
	We need a third show.
	We only do so much.
	And we didn't even get to the most important news, that Mount Everest is shrinking.
	I mean, come on.
	Global warming is here.
	Shrinking.
	It's shrinking.
	It's going to be the size of my cat.
	Coming to you from the Hilltop Watchtower Crackpot Command Center in Gitmo Nation West, the People's Republic of Southern California.
	In the morning, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where the sun is shining, which is nice, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We will talk to you again for early service on Sunday right here on No Agenda.
	Sunday on No Agenda.
	Whatever.
