Maui Tacos 5k

On 9-18-10 I ran the Maui Tacos 5k in Lahaina, Maui, Hawaii. I made it in 33:16. I don't train running to be competitive. I only did it because my wife made me do it. She paid for the trip so I had to go along. She's the runner and did the warrior (Kao pu ali') challenge half marathon in 2:05; that's 13.1 miles plus the 5k plus a one mile sprint both the day before. We snorkeled and drove the Hana Hwy and visited the Surfing Goat Dairy. The plane ride both ways was excruciating making the saying "no pain no gain" a reality. I'm glad I went but now I want to move there except I don't want to be on an island in the middle of the Pacific a 2500 mile plane ride from the mainland. If the planes stop flying that's a long swim or paddle or sail and I'm not up for any of those. It was very expensive to do anything as well. I guess I'll just stay put.

Without my Consent

I do not consent. To what? Synthetic viruses, compulsory vaccination, required health insurance and fines if you don't comply, wars based on lies, total surveillance on where you drive, how you bank and on what you spend your money, etc. Give me reliable information don't tell me what to think. Why would info on the JFK assassination be sealed for decades if there wasn't a cover-up? It must be because they want everyone involved or knowledgeable about the subject to be dead before the truth comes out. National security can have nothing to do with it unless it was subverted to the point that the nation has been altered to the point of not being the same nation anymore and the people would want to revert and regain it if the truth were known.
We the people are being bamboozled at every turn. Why would they allow the exponential poisoning of the Gulf by adding dispersants to the oil that make them substantially more poisonous? Do you think they didn't know the effects beforehand?
I do not consent to biochips, chem-trails, HAARP, genetically modified organisms for food, thought police, forced or stealth religious/political conversions, prohibition of herbal/vitamin/mineral supplements, forced norms of body weight, blood pressure, or cholesterol. That is enough examples for now but I could go on about taxes of many kinds and so forth. I won't tell you what to think about the ramifications of all the above because I want you to get informed and make up your own mind.
Watch how the seductions are delivered and by whom. Watch for promises of security and the impact on your choices/liberty/freedom. Question who benefits, qui bono.

Normal, to be or not to be

I postulate that just like everyone has a different set of fingerprints we also develop individually, that is everyone is in a different state of development or a different place literally than anyone else. Even if two people were in the same “phase” they would be at different points somewhere in the parameters. What this leads me to is that there is no normal except as a construct of a range of limits agreed upon and usually constructed by so called experts. An example of normality is the blood work done for physical exams. There is a range in which each tested category is considered normal and out side that range your doctor gets to charge you more for further testing. As an aside why do you suppose they keep lowering the acceptable range for such things as cholesterol and blood pressure? I say it is because they know that less and less people can fall into that range and they can charge for more tests and get you on some treatment program that requires scheduled maintenance and that will keep you as a regular customer coming back more often and spending more money.

Those type measurements are at least empirical in that they actually measure the level or amount of something definite. Where normal really gets weird is measuring some state of mind or mental or behavioral process. Once again standards are set by so called experts but these experts don't deal in empirical values. They deal in arbitrary concepts or constructs of someones imagination that have gained some following because they can now be used for labeling a targeted population in order to control and extract profit from them. The depressed come to mind in that one of the biggest money making schemes of all time is their treatment. I don't really know how they measure depression but it seems to me that one only need to believe one is depressed to be so. In fact it must be very easy to convince people they are depressed because of all the anti-depressant drugs dished out and the concomitant problems they cause as it seems all have warnings that feelings of suicide may be side effects of the drugs. How un-laughably funny is that? Even if you don't get suicidal you walk around in some state that is definitely not normal and are inducted into the parade of perpetual maintenance schemes. How much recreational use of these drugs is the real motivation behind getting them and their legality and ease of acquisition of course is another consideration?

Back to normal. That is the question. Normal, normal or maverick normal? Berserk make your on rules maverick normal is not for everybody but that's what I'll take because I like righteous defiance in the face of oppressive labeling and techniques of control. Run first ask questions later.

Things Change

   When I was preschool age I always lived in an extended family environment, with grandparents or aunts and uncles. One day I was playing on the stairs with a Slinky; I don't know if they still make them but they were basically a metal spring. I was walking the Slinky down the stairs because that was basically all they were good for. I don't remember how the conversation got started but my mom was telling me that I would have to go to school soon. My grandmother always read us bedtime stories and we children loved it. Since I liked to be read to my mom assumed that it would be an enticement that I would learn to read in school, that was over 45 years ago when there were still separate facilities for whites and "coloreds".  Why would I say such a thing, because it is true and emphasizes how things change. The crux of the matter is that I told her vehemently that I didn't want to go to school much less learn to read.
   It turned out that I actually liked school and even tried to excel in it. I also like to read and as a teen I liked fiction. I didn't know then that that was mostly what was being taught in school anyway. Not many years ago I decided that I would mostly read non-fiction to catch up on my real education and what I've learned since has turned my world every which way. What do I mean? I see that most of the fictions were made practical because of being shared as beliefs and that a lot of what is true does not help in this realm other than to cause contention with the fiction believers. Just take a look at politics and main stream media/news. Fiction is by far the medium of exchange even so in medicine and science. Experts tell us what they want us to think not what we should know.
    We think there is no cure for cancer or diabetes. We think lower cholesterol makes a difference in rate of heart attacks. We think UFOs are just that and government is for the people and that vaccines are helpful. We think that if we work hard we can succeed on that merit alone. We think that if everyone is being watched by security cameras that it will stop crime and reduce car wrecks but in reality all these things just put money in someone Else's pockets and that was by design.
   We think that history has unfolded by a series of accidents and coincidence and by the luck of the draw. If we don't have what we need we are unlucky or less fortunate and perhaps we don't work hard enough. By the by the hardest working people that I've observed are the ones with the least. And those that produce least have the most because they have produced fictions like derivatives and fiat currencies. I know this a generalization and stereotypical.
   Back to the topic what I have not learned through experience I have learned through reading and observing. The catch is what is true. What are the coded double speak and symbols doing to us? How can we know? Can we identify the fictions when we see them? Not all but some perhaps. How true can we be to ourselves?
 What will change one's outlook? I have more questions than answers.
   I'm glad I learned to read and that there are not separate facilities anymore or are they just called by another name with a different veneer. How easily I grow tired of these musings much like watching a Slinky descend the stairs.
   Things change and people change by being replaced but as with Led Zeppelin "The Song Remains the Same".

A friend sent me the link and wrote the following:

The bitch said it!!!!!

Satan I mean Michelle Obama said the long legged Mack daddy is Kenyan!!!

 

Would knowledge of that be considered conspiracy to defraud the American people who voted for an ineligible candidate? She knows it; the Chief Justice who flubbed the swearing in knows it and the flub was the get around because he wasn't officially made the President, so we have an illegitimate candidate posing as POTUS and we sit by and watch the pro-politicians ruin everything we ever believe we stood for. What should be the penalty for all those that knew before or know now in government that don't bring action to remove the pretender/usurper? If there is Karma I hope it has a big boot with which to kick those asses that really deserve it.

This is an example of the games we're in that I want to address. There are rules that seem to be ever changing or totally disregarded so how can we expect any semblance of fair play/treatment?

I'll answer my own question. We cannot expect fair play/treatment. That is why it is most important to learn the art of the MaverickPawn. Unfortunately there are no teachers of this art but per se but experience. And reading the blogs I follow will help considerably I'm sure. 

I tire quickly talking of these things.
