Skipping Out on Death

Two more chapters of my book “Packing to Die: Suitcase between your ears” today. In this one, we talk about postponing death. Lots of strategies to be kicked around…

Sorry if the page is a bit slow to load. Not a server issue. Just a lot of words and charts. 14 graphics, and about 9,700 words. 8,700 is the book portion. The balance is charts and the ADP job report analysis, and such wise and so forth. Shall we?

Super weak jobs report…

We Can All Relax Now – Server Move is Done

Took only 4 1/2 hours. 

Peoplenomics is on a new server, but till the DNS changes settle down, maybe 48 hours, there could be some net-induced janky.

Moved all the subscriber data, was a SQL-slinger, the data move was flawless with another hat tip to my pal Gaye  for having a faster (and less prone to disconnect) web connection!).

Off to have a well-deserved glass of vino…  Buddy up in OK is now 13 days in hospital with CV but hanging in there.

Huge treatise of UrbanSuvival tomorrow on antennas, but for a “weekend/day off?”  Yeah…kicked it.

Kicked it hard.

Depression Like No Other

Reader Note:  We will be moving to a new server farm today.  So from noon (CDT) today until I’m done (take it any way you will) the Peoplenomics website may have a few unreachable moments… We’re not leaving.  Just rearranging the digital furniture.

Report now? A twisted tale of future studies, dream worlds, and computers that run intelligence is our topic.  Following the Friday market sell-off, next week could be interesting.

How about I tell you our topic ends up in some serious woo-woo?  Like the kind of stuff that jerks you out of bed at 1 AM to start trying to capture what just happened in a dream?

Well, that’s exactly part of what happened.  Let’s do the usual’s and then we’ll get into the really strange world of future.  After the ChartPack.  But first, we need to talk about Aging and NBCRET…

Slowing Down Aging – Mental Tricks

Another chapter in the next book “Packing to Die:  The Suitcase between your Ears…” Today, we will look for those easy to use tools that can not only keep you “thinking young” but – special bonus here – if you ever have to do time in solitary confinement – you can actually look forward to it.

Yeah – interesting ground for a book on prepping to die – but we do look at things a bit unusually around here.

After, that is, we get through the mid week headlines, and what is that oh-so-silly stock market doing to our ChartPack, now?

Guidestones Calculus

With markets in turmoil, a pause for reflection on the Georgia Guide Stones paradox may be useful. If you haven’t heard of them, you’re way behind the curve.

Even if you have, though, they may not be “front of mind.”  There’s a lot to be learned from them, of course.  But almost nothing is known about who mysteriously put them there.  Points us to the questions though  –  and brings us to considering how we may all be victims of competing, society-wide, “shaping operations.”

Today we will consider the stones, Covid, and history anew.  We’ll go light on conspiracies (many of which turn out to be true, however). Yet many do hold “hidden variables” that can take decades to appear.  We’ll go heavier on the peering behind the curtains.   Nuclear saber rattling, masking, and pandemics, plus economic collapse potential from markets being so high.  All coincidental?  Or much more to it?  Historical rhyme time.

First, though, the usual slosh of news to consider and with the wild market action this week, including a “turnaround Tuesday” and will this turn into Wind-up Wednesday as the ChartPack is particularly interesting.

Our StratPlan for Lockdown 2.0

Touched on this on UrbanSurvival Friday; today details. We’re walking a fine line between “overdoing it” and prepping for the “worst case” outcome which may be on the horizon.

Not without more coffee, a few headlines, and the ChartPack, though.  Especially since the market is to a “make or break line as you’ll see in a moment…

A Day Without the Web

A lot has happened since I wrote the book Broken Web in 2012. Unfortunately, though, the long-term bottom-line outcome hasn’t changed.  If anything, post Wuhan, there are still more plotlines to collapse than happy endings.

This morning, two perspectives.  A look back at how television news lost America’s faith.  And a look ahead to the day we hope never happens.

We do this with the goal of keeping our minds focused and ready for any – and all – eventualities; it’s time to update our thinking and present what a day of life would be like with no internet.

I think you’ll agree, it’s a sobering mess.  Fitting for a accompanying post mortem on network news.

After a few snips of today-ish headlines and a look at the ChartPack which is busily digesting inflation and deflationary counter-currents from a very vulnerable perspective.

Woo-Woo on Rails, Doldrums

Score another one for woo-woo.  Not only that, but we see Joe Bidenista’s going after the nation’s rail freight system in what sure has the look of pseudo-nationalizing to us.

So open those borders, scream against equality with “specialness” and keep your head down.  The printing presses are rolling and the Air Bridge over Depression is hanging in the morning sky.

Along with some low-lying headlines and the ChartPack chronicling our One-Upping of 1929…

"Packing to Die" – Chapters 13 & 14

Transportable wealth – the kind you can take with you – can only be stored between your ears and in your heart.  It’s a scientifically backed fact that most people don’t want to face.  Let alone inventory, assess, plan, and evolve action plans toward excellence.

That’s why I’m writing a “practical book” on the topic.  Humans have lived under the thumb of a fear-mongering class of Controller Elites long enough.  Although the battle for change in the “here and now” must also be waged in the “other Realms” of humans; death and dreams.

Not finding anything suitable with plenty of tangibles (and without passing a collection plate for some cause, or other) the book evolved as a third in a series of books that considers the Human relationship with “Dimensions Next Door” which may answer “Skinwalker” kinds of questions.  As well as “Psychocartography” – a series of practices designed to increase dream recall and become an emissary between the waking and sleeping worlds.

Of course, before starting, we will roll through a few headlines and see what the ChartPack is telling us about yesterday’s “snap, crack, and jump” that saw a decent sell-off immediately followed by a dead cat bounce which – we reckon – ought to fade as the week wears on .

Important Reader Notes: There are three items of a “housekeeping nature” everyone should be aware of.

1.  There shouldn’t be any ads now on the UrbanSurvival home page.  Yes, if you click through to an article, those expense covering beasties will appear.  But no point in scaring people off before they get to content.  Besides, since Google is making such a Big Deal about page speed, ads slowing down page speed rankings which results in ranking penalties.

2.  Also on UrbanSurvival, there is a new tab far right side of the top menu called “Hot Deals.”

If, when you’re out and about and find a genuinely good deal on something, worth sharing with friends – of a new use for an old “thing” – please feel free to post it as a Comment section on that page.

These will all be manually approved (and no, please no posting of commission-generating links!).

The idea is that if you find a retailer online is having a one-day blow out sale (like a 65″ UHD TV for under $200 bucks with free shipping, say) that would be of interest.

Or, 5-gallon pails of nitrogen packed stored freeze-dried high protein meals for $59.95… That kind of thing.

3.  Last, we have moved our nameserver for Peoplenomics and it seems to have gone without a hitch.  We shall see (Murphy’s law lurks everywhere these days!) but for now that part of the transition of Peoplenomics to a modern, responsive layout (goal is to have everything working smoothly by year end on the upgraded site) is moving along on what passes (around here, anyway) as “on schedule.”

OK, time to play Columbian, Arabica or Kona roulette with the coffee packs and move along…

Redefining America

Over what we hope will be a quiet long weekend, it’s useful to ponder and “big picture” America’s Prospects.  Truly a mixed bag this year.

Which we will muse on, right after a few headlines and the ChartPack which is definitely in a “caution zone.”

Book: “Packing to Die” Continues

Latest installment of my book this morning deals with a process called  Destructuring.  Up to page 71 today.  Where it fits in the process of “filling the suitcase between your ears” is worth a few minutes of your time.

First though, a ton of data to wade through including (besides headlines) the new ADP Jobs report.  Then we roll through our ChartPack.

Asking the question:  Is the top in or really, really close?

America’s Thousands of Heroes

The heat is on in the West this weekend and into next week.  So a few words about the people who are (and will be) heroes of the heat to begin with this morning.

Then a few headlines and our ChartPack.

This weekend is ham radio’s Field Day so I will be spending 2 PM to 4 PM Central time sniping CW (Morse code) contacts from 14.010 up to 14.060 MHz. Callsign AC7X.  Operating from solar at home.

Even if you’re not a ham, if you’re “out and about” and see a bunch of people with wires thrown up in trees and such, drop by for a look at the communications providers who are literally America’s last stand on communications should the web ever go dark…
