OIL, is LIFE

From the time you were born, the OIL AGE had an overwhelmingly important sustenance aspect to your life. The modern facility
  • you were born in, was only made possible due to A resonably priced energy source, including the technology contained within
  • Cheap and plentiful Refrigeration to eliminate food and medicine spoilage, is ignorantly taken for granted today.

    Think you can do without fossil fueled 'Energy'? Watch the ZIMBABWE
  • documentary, also posted near the end. They have been Politically forced to 'Go Green'. So 'Green' their Sacrifice brings tears to my eyes. So 'Green' they, like most of third world Africa, have reduced their average age expectancy to approximately 37 (latest figures)

    The high technology medical equipment we have come to rely so heavily on, such as the MRI technology
  • as well as Kidney Dialysis machines
  • Ultra Sound
  • CT Scan
  • PET Scan
  • and countless other modern technology marvels used all over the Free world, are not only made from and operated with, the molecules of OIL and Natural GAS, compounded with other molecules (petro-chemical engineering), the low cost energy mandated, endlessly enters the picture at each and every step of the way. Where are the common sense 'Teachers'?

    Modern Weaponry, Sails, Para-Sails and Parachutes, Vel-Cro, Spandex, Lycra, Cordura fabrics extensively used in military, law enforcement, Backpacking, Survival, Tents. Recreational (including in all) Clothing and Footwear, Seat belts, Air bags. Bullet Proof Vests, Belts, Zippers, Buttons, Fasteners, Purses, Vinyls, Teflons, Acrylics, Polyesters, Upholsterys, Window coverings of every type and purpose. Cushions, Pillows, matresses (ready to return to 'horsehair'?). Even Your 'Natural' fabrics are structured with synthetic threads, to say nothing of their Production. Do the words 'Synthetic Materials' mean anything to you?

    Shampoos, Soaps, Creams and Lotions (think beautification) Preservatives. Do not forget Post Operative and cosmetic 'Hair Pieces'. Burn treatments, Prosthetics and most modern sanitary anti-bacterial compounds, food wraps, serving containers, and recyclable utensils. Dental hygene (wood and Hog bristle toothbrushes again?) Even Bio-products are planted, irrigated, cultivated, harvested and refined using Petro-Energy and Fossil fuels. Do not forget every step of the manufacturing of the Machinery. Bio products like 'Corn' Ethanol CANNOT generate enough energy to produce themselves. That old "Law of Diminishing Returns".. Physics anyone?

    All low cost necessities you use every day, are products of OIL Petro-Chemistry. Snowmobiles, Most watercraft, including recreational and commercial boats are Petro-Chemical in construction and operation. Recreational hardware is made of Plastics and Resin embedded Fiber glass, Carbon fiber, Graphite laminates, as are golf clubs, Skis, Snowboards. Life saving medical supplies and their delivery instruments. Rescue Helicopters, ropes, control cables and rods, Flashlights, LED lighting, Fishing equipment, Nets and Lines included Recreational as well as Commercial... Are you ready to do without reasonably priced Seafood in your diet?

    Diabetic's as well as other's, throw away hypodermic needles, Abundant and cheap Glucose Meters and strips, Heart Monitors, Joint Implants, including many critical medicines themselves...All OIL connected. Petro-Chemistry miracles Everyone ignorantly takes for granted.

    Is anyone ready to do without their low cost, energy efficient, miraculous necessities, Eyewear, Hearing aids and All Entertainment, and Communication 'Technology', including all Children's TOYS? Municipal water sources, which include massive petro-chemical engineered filtering equipment (source of cheap 'Purified' bottled water in re-cyclable 'plastic' containers). Visit a third world country to gain a real appreciation for deadly Hardships.

    Never ever forget one of THE absolutely most important.. Cheap, universally neccessary (Periodic Table of Elements), Anti-Microbial CHLORINE (Yep, product of Petro-Chemical engineering)
  • including Purified municipal Water distribution. Sewer collection and Plumbing, including all modern efficient Mass Irrigation, Pesticides and Fertilyzers for the Unprecedented production of Abundant, reasonably priced FOOD?

    Modern Natural and LP Gas lines, Fiber Optics Tele-data comunications including all Satelites, are totally impossible without Fossil Fuel and Petro-Chemicals. Basic Electrical and Electronic control switches and conductors, Keypads, Screens, and Housings used in every device, including Vacuum cleaners, Coffee makers and of course COMPUTERS could never exist without PETRO-CHEMICAL components. Universally popular Games and Hand helds of every imaginable use, Maintenance and Construction Tools, including 'Clean Energy' systems, are manufactured, distributed and produced Only with the use of OIL products.

    State of the Art Air Transportation is Only possible with massive amounts of Fuel and Petro-Chemical composites in manufacturing
  • Adhesives, Sealants along with weather preservative, rust and Decay controlling Coatings of every type. Paints, solvents, thinners, flooring...All OIL, Petro-Chemical Engineered.

    Barely justifiable, 'Green' (heavily taxpayer subsidized) Photo-Voltaic Solar collectors, with a 15% efficiency of Crystaline technology (thin film is 6%) would be impossible without Oil products. The 25% 'maximum' efficiency The 25% maximum efficiency
  • Heavily taxpayer subsidized Wind Turbines, every news article touts as 'The Renewable Energy Answer', would be totally impossible without OIL products (also heavily taxpayer subsidized).

    The massive Composite blades of the beautifully Engineered Wind Turbines
  • are even Petro-Chemical, hollow Laminates. Consider the energy to Mine the materials, Manufacture, and transport (20% of the costs), assemble and erect these huge State of the Art marvels only viable by the recent use of composite, Rare Earth
  • Super Magnets


  • Every new "Breakthrough" in Green Energy or products, is tied inextricably to OIL and Fossil Fuels. Following the 'Mandates' ordered by Self Righteous 'Idealists', regulate, restrict and remove OIL and Fossil Fuel, from the equation, and you are instantly thrown back to The Bronze Age
  • That period of time (population Five Million)
  • when Amazingly self sufficient, 'Oetzi' the Iceman
  • perished by an attack from others (some things Never change).

    The Industrial Age, made possible by cheap, plentiful OIL, allowed today's 'easy life', OIL AGE population to grow to Seven Billion.

    The worlds power grids, as all electrical wiring circuits, are shielded with Petroleum based insulation on the overwhelming majority of local conductors. Just over 50 years ago, Only vulnerable glass, ceramic, cotton and rubber were the insulations. No one even thinks of the massive amounts of Fossil Fueled energy required to mine, process and transport the raw materials consumed by the developed world..

    OIL's continued production is made possible, only by the OIL energy resource already produced, refined and continually stored. No other source of energy on this planet is so readily converted to the everyday things we all take for granted. Storage and transportability of energy is an engineering science in itself.

    Observe closely, attempt to understand the Engineering of the novel 'Solar Car' technology, seen in races held around the world, to get a basic education in Physics. Does "The Law of Diminishing Returns" mean anything to you? Probably Not. SAT scores are dropping, and school systems are reducing the credit requirements, to create more Dependency, and Voters that support the New World 'Dependency' movement.

    Every bit of plastic, or rubber in your life, including every electronic gadget and communication device you view as an absolute necessity to Your life, is major percentage, refined, and a laboratory composite of OIL molecules. The entire world's manufacturing facilities, and 'Every' place of business and employment, is dependent in some way, on OIL molecules. New studies of human blood and tissue, show a significant percentage of OIL molecules. We are seeing more and more Centenarians, so it isn't all that bad.

    Transportaion, including every source of energy before the 19th century, was Water, Wind, Animal or Human powered. Coal was an uncommon, unaffordable (to most) luxury. Accessable Forests were depleted by societies in search of heat producing combustibles and building materials. The population of the earth was less than one Billion people. During those times, life was only survivable due to the Wits, Size or Strength of certain 'Fortunate' humans. DNA was extremely important. Genetic weaknesses doomed the unfortunate bloodline. Today, with cheap energy and resources, they are encouraged to prosper.

    As in most of History, 'Absolute Power' was in the hands of the gifted few. Most children born (including many Mothers in childbirth), did Not survive to adult age, as is commonly expected today. With the shortage and unavailability of energy consuming products in Communist/Socialist Zimbabwe today, the life expectancy is reduced to no more than the mid 40's, and Zimbabwe is in a 'life favorable' climate. Is your local climate and society favorable to a non-heated, non-air conditioned, food and energy deprived life?

    Energy becoming comparitively easy to obtain, Coal then OIL... made the entire world more easily survivable. The Industrial Revolution was the catylist. The world's population is now around 7 Billion, testimony of immensely improved 'Survivability'.

    The loudest antagonists shouting "Greed, and Pollution" need only to look in a mirror. To attack efficient, Free market OIL producers, and our source of everyday life, is tantamount to promoting mass suicide... of the majority of the human race.

    Today there are those 'In Power' among us, that would be perfectly happy to accomplish just that. Repeatedly showing the Oil soaked Pelicans and beaches, are only the first 'visual shock' salvos being fired. Demanding 'Change' through oppressive Taxation, regulations and restrictions, 'They' work tirelessly to convince the naive among us, that it is 'our duty' to forsake life as we have become accustomed, or Pay Dearly to Survive.

    Back to the 'cave and sustenance' lifestyle (excluding their own taxpayer funded, lavish lifestyle of course) is exctly the way they view Utopia...Their Utopia.

    OIL is a direct result of Solar energy physics. It would not have been possible without the perfect Carboniferous conditions present on this earth, millions of years before man thought of walking around on it. The Bible's account varies somewhat in Time line, but basically confirmed the process. Note the modern process of 'BIO OIL'


  • Think of your modern, oil product containing shoes. I still recall the all leather shoes of my childhood. They were prohibitively expensive, many times 'hand me downs', and even though often being repaired at costly 'shoe repair shops', had a ridiculously short useful life span. The slipery leather soles, wore through quickly.

    The 'animal based' hide glue, soaked loose and the layers seperated. The nails that held the heels in place, rusted loose. The cotton thread around the tractionless, slick leather soles, wore out fast, letting the sole 'Flap' as I walked. To say nothing of the rocks, snow and water flooding in to freeze my feet. A black tar soaked cloth product, called electricians 'Friction Tape', allowed me to survive the winter with a very unstylish, 'tape layer wrapped' look on my shoes.

    Traction treaded, cushioned soles, such as in universal demand today, were non existant. 'Vibram' was not even a dream back then. Cars were a luxury not many familys could afford. Fuel was only 10 to 20 cents a gallon, but a 'dollar an hour' was a really well paying job at the time.

    Most people were happy to earn 25 cents an hour. BTW minimum pay scale was 'never' considered a 'Living Wage'. It was a supplement, that is today, touted by election seeking Politicians, as a 'Right'. The extremely fortunate 'Union Workers', did extremely well, in comparison to the rest of the working force. Not everyone was as fortunate to know, or be related to someone, in order to get a 'Union Job' in a 'closed shop' state.

    Government jobs with benefits 'to die for', were Never plentiful. Air Conditioning was a rarely seen 'commercial novelty'. Sooty Coal or expensive Kerosene Heat was barely sufficient and 'Rationed' (WWII). Even then only to certain rooms. No worry about Freezing the plumbing, we didn't have much. Our one kitchen/bathroom pipe was drained in the coldest winter, or dad had to crawl under the house with a blowtorch to thaw the pipe..

    Our 'post war', modern Fuel OIL heater, changed all of that and we finally were able to afford an electric (only turned on 'night rate' as needed) Water Heater. After the War, we finally got a fresh water deep well. No more Cistern, shallow hand dug well, with bacterial polluted water, no more skin 'boils' and bowel disorders.

    Insulating Carpeting was not always taken for granted on floors. Grandmother hand wove scraps of salvaged wool clothing to make our throw 'Rugs'. Miraculous, Plentiful and Cheap OIL and Petro Chemical Refining is the reason that families homes today can afford Oil based synthetic carpeting. Modern upholstery, draperies, fabrics of every nature. The insulation that keeps homes warm and cool, started life as OIL. The vinyl windows used in modern High Efficiency homes, are OIl based as is Vinyl siding. Shingles on your roof? Lighter modern, plastic containing, cars, trucks, Tires, Batteries. Anyone care to return to leaky leather, cork and fiber 'Natural' seals? Fabric drive belts?

    Remove OIL Molecules from the Toyota 'Prius' engineering and manufacturing, and you would have a curious immobile lump of rusted metal art. Everything you touch today has an intertwining relationship with OIL, absolutely Everything. OIL and it's cheap energy, contributed immensely to change our lifestyle. Many areas of this country, to say nothing of the world, absolutely depend for survival on Tourism, made possible ONLY by a cheap energy source and a lifestyle in excess of Basic Sustenance. We became a blessed, air conditioned nation of excess, and more than any other country, shared our prosperity with the world.

    The Associated Press writer Seth Borenstein (Knight-Ridder)
  • gives a report today in the major Journals across the country. It is titled "Oil's Ubiquitous Embrace". Hopefully the world's teachers will someday teach a basic education in OIL and Petrochemicals. Engineering classes anyone? I once toured the Port Arthur section of Marathon OIl's, Texas City Texas, facility
  • Only then did I sense the magnitude of this 'Life Giving' product. Seeing a beautiful and intricately engineered refinery at night, is enlightening as it's importance to life on earth.

    A trip along the Texas Gulf will educate you further, as you observe the industry that allows You to Exist. Driving south from Galveston, many Deep Water rigs, 'Bullwinkle' for one
  • amd many more are being constructed everyday, HERE in the USA. Ready to throw away Those jobs along with most others? Regulate them? Restrict Them? TAX them under 'Cap and Trade' to finance ever more Government 'Bureaucracy'? This is a link of the U.S. OIL Refineries
  • Think they will not affect YOU? Think OIL is a bad thing? want it done away with? convinced that it's nasty and not neccessary? Want it tightly Regulated, Restricted and highly TAXED by Government..... like Zimbabwe?
  • Think again, find a Real Teacher, get educated, then decide...intelligently.

    Everything you touch, everything you wear, Panty-hose, Socks, Undergarments including Bra's? Strong Thread with Polyester core, (visible when you wear through the heels of socks)
  • and every bite of food you eat, is plentiful and cheap to produce 'Only' because of OIL and its necessary, potentially dangerous and miraculous, sometimes fallable sources of retrieval
  • All made possible by the Risks of OIL field workers, and Investors (including municiple and retirement funds, maybe even Yours?) trying to earn a Profit, so that Your monthly income may be sustained..

    Question: Where are the 'Competant' people involved in this life sustaining technology? Are we now so Politically Correct, that in the name of Diversity we now embrace 'Incompetance'?
    The EPA is presently the force holding back technology from cleaning up the result of 'Incompetance'. The EPA is in itself so Politically infected, that it reeks of the same Incompetance of Bureaucracy


  • As Pompous, pontificating National Leaders, Politically, Oppressively Control, then tightly Regulate, and Restrict (exhorbitantly TAX) this life's necessity, you directly and immediately, affect millions of people earning their livelihood on the front lines in the industry.

    Bankrupt or exhorbitantly TAX, Restrict and Regulate this necessary life sustaining Industry, Then prepare for the inevitable 'Colateral Damage'..... YOU and Your Family....
    Nuclear Fallout will seem a minor inconvenience in comparison..

    To learn 50 years of oil history, view these pictures. You will then know far more than the 'News' Journalists


  • If CAP and TRADE (TAX) has anything to do with it, You will be on Your way...'WALKING' (the Zimbabwean way) back to 'The Cave'. You will definetly learn first hand, as Plato taught, "The Allegory of The Cave".

    Stay informed. Voice your opinions to Your Senators and Representatives. Vote Wisely. Enjoy life, in this miraculously Free country. The United States of America, One Nation Under God".

    New Mexico Mystery, 75 years ago

    Leslie Linthicum of the Albuquerque Journal, has re-published (June 20 2010) an old UPI story about a Mysterious 1935 Disapearance of four Illinois Tourists. Middle aged Albert and Tillie Heberer, along with George and Laura Lorious, left Illinois in the Lorius's 1929 Nash two door sedan
  • Lorius was an executive in the coal and Ice business of East St. Louis. Albert Heberer was working in the meat business.

    They were definetly on a 'life changing' adventure across the Great American Southwest. At that time in history, a trip like this was considered quite an adventure. They were on their way to see the brand new 'Boulder Dam' (now Hoover Dam) and the World's Fair in San Diego. The nation was still gripped in a devastating Depression. Unemployment and Desperation was rampant across the country. Business, due to political unease like today, was reluctant to expand and invest.

    Travel in those days, was certainly Not the high speed Interstate highway trips of today. The highways were gravel and narrow. The last time the two couples were seen and positively identified, was in Vaughn New Mexico along hwy 60. They were having breakfast the 22nd of may, after staying overnight the 21st, at the brick two story Vaughn Hotel (no longer exists). Many days later, some of their belongings were found smoldering on the mesa, east of downtown Albuquerque (Nob Hill, today).

    The Lorius's 1929 Nash two door, was involved in a wreck in Socorro along hwy 60, on May 23rd. A young dark complexioned man with tatoos on his left arm and uneven ears, was identified driving the Nash and using travelers checks at points along the route. According to one FBI investigator, Quemado NM, hwy 60, was the last tentative ID of the Nash, and receipt for gas. The FBI case investigator 'Gere', believed (due to a 50 mile odometer descrepency) their bodies are possibly within 25 miles of Quemado. This is the Socorro connection in detail


  • The Nash with signs of being involved in wrecks, was found abandoned in Dallas Texas on May 26th. The Search was huge by the standards of those days. Even Clyde Tingely, the Governor of NM was involved and took residence in a hotel command post at the Albuquerque Hilton. The safety of the State of New Mexico Tourism industry, was in jeopardy, and rightly so. All New Mexico tourism dropped drastically after the news reports. Teams of searchers, included the National Guard, G-men and State Police (27 at that time). Hundreds of Volunteers walked for miles along the route, looking for clues. Amatuer sleuths worked the leads, and searched the routes.

    No bodies or graves were found, in spite of the numerous searches. ElPaso Texas was the overnight stop of the young, dark complexioned man with Tatoos on his left arm and uneven ears, driving the Nash east toward Dallas. Luggage belonging to the couples, was also found in El Paso. 300 'Persons of Interest' were checked. The suspected young man was even cashing their forged Travelers Checks along the path of the Nash sightings. For some reason, strangely similar to legalistics of today, no actual arrests were made, or charges were filed.

    The National news (UPI at that time) carried the Mystery Crime, from Oregon
  • to Pennsyvania
  • The Full Murder investigation was now in effect. It stayed on the front pages of 'United Press International', with numerous leads coming in until the unprecedented Heat Wave of July 1935. The 'Climate Change' (Global Warming) switched people's attention span. Then with no new leads, the mystery murders dropped from the 'News' into obscurity.

    Vaughn, 100 miles north of Roswell, was at that time, a very busy railroad stop, and crew change 'layover'. Today it is a veritable ghost town of boarded up buildings, with barely a 24 hour fuel stop and a cafe or two. The historic Railroad Station and switch yard, with it's numerous sidings, is still intact with the heavy train travel being container freight. In stark simularity, the virtually endless miles of desolate open range across New Mexico, is not changed, even today.

    The highway routing is different today with the advent of the modern Interstate Highway System. Back then the highway 'Route 66' was mostly a gravel road, proceeded northward around the Sandia Mountains into Santa Fe NM. (Tjeras canyon I-40, was in those days a primitive canyon trail road). At SF, Route 66 then turned back south over the winding, dangerous gravel road of La Bajada Hill, down to Albuquerque, where it continued south to Los Lunas NM. It then turned west toward Gallup NM (some of the search was even done in Gallup and Arizona as far as the Painted Deseert).

    Many years later, a woman possibly seeking a few minutes of fame, told a bizarre story, that they were killed over a dispute about Gold treasure. Doc Noss, a NM figure always associated with stories about lost treasure, was supposedly involved. She said, that was the reason their luggage was burned on the mesa east of downtown Albuquerque (Nob Hill).

    She claimed the couples had stayed in a hotel in downtown Albuquerque. One woman stayed behind, while the others in the group, went to 'Hot Springs' (Now Truth or Consquences, 'T or C' NM) with other men. There reportedly was a dispute in the temporary Gold stash area, three of the travelers were killed and buried. The remaining woman was killed afterward, and the luggage was burned. Her wild story does not have wide support.

    Ironically, controversial Doc Noss was himself killed in 1949, during a dispute over the Gold treasure, supposedly hidden in the Victorio Peak area of White Sands Missile Rang. A later series of well publicized 'Noss family' searches, found no Gold. Stories abound, of how the closed to the public, military range, 'Gold Treasure' was plundered by the U.S. military itself.


  • One other noteworthy lead with far more plausibity in the tourist's demise, came months later form Oklahoma. Chester Comer, the deadly rampage suspect
  • the oil field worker, who closely fit the description, and who's handwriting was being investigated, was always on a lifetime bloodthirsty killing spree. Two missing wives were never found.

    Chester Comer, the psychopathic murderer, had been recently released from Huntsville Prison in Texas
  • to return to, and prey on society. His overall total number of victims is not known, but easily five verifiable suspicions were tied to his travels, not including the four missing tourists. The tourists went missing in his general western states area of operation, possibly being murdered in Tjeras Canyon, East of Albuquerque. Chester Comer was shot months later, in a close gun battle with an Oklahoma Marshall, and mumbled incoherently on his hospital deathbed about some bodies and trees.

    Continuation in Thursday's Alb Journal June 24 2010:

    Leslie Linthicum's 2nd part of this article, told of more information. State Police agent Norman Rhoades is currently involved on this 'Cold Case', which had at one time, accumulated a stack of records six feet tall. Barbara and Don Ashcraft have made many trips to NM and have accumulated loads of information on this crime. Laura Lorius was Barbara's great aunt.

    The Ashcrafts suspect the bodies are in Vaughn, where George Lorius was seeking and most likely met with, a past aquaintance, a nurse. Their bodies are quite conceivably buried beneath a concrete slab in the basement of a long gone Vaughn building.

    In 1963 a waitress in Belen, sent a letter to Walter Duke, a great uncle of Barbara's. Duke was an Albuquerque real estate entrepreneur that worked tirelessly on the case. The waitress said, while working in Vaughn, she had witnessed the murder in a basement. Vaughn today, is nothing like the busy railroad town of 'Depression' 1935. Long abandoned slabs of concrete are countless, due to the Vaughn New Mexico 'Ghost Town' nature of today.

    In 1935, Laura's sister was startled awake during a realistic dream. Laura appeared and told her she had been murdered and was buried beneith flooring, where it would be very hard to find her. This vivid dream occured the night of the 22nd. On that date, No One even was aware that the couples were missing. Not until the damaged Nash was found in Dallas...several days later.

    State Police Agent Rhoades has another theory today. They left Vaughn, took Rt 66 to Las Vegas NM (it's old route), then turned southwest to Albuquerque (based on last postcard mailing date). They have a witness report of the couples taking a shower at an Alb hotel, then supposedly heading out of town south to Los Lunas (old 66 route at that time), and then turning west toward Gallup. Agent Rhoades surmises they were abducted somewhere just out of Albuquerque, before they got to Gallup, were murdered and buried along the barren gravel highway.

    Agent Rhoades also is inclined to believe that two assailants were involved. One continued driving the Nash on to El Paso Texas, then to Dallas. His signatures are on the forged traveler's Checks all along the route. The Albuquerque Journal today has a 'composite' drawn by Police artist Celene Wolf. It shows the described image of the main suspect.

    If I were a betting man, I would lay odds on 24 year old Psychopath, Chester Comer, mentioned in previous paragraphs. He had a Violent record, was a Career Offender released from Texas Huntsville Prison prior to the dissapearance of several others, including the tourists. Dark complexioned, tatooed Comer, worked on southwest oil drilling crews, was a Serial Killer. He roamed among the southwestern states population, murdering several other trusting individuals during that time frame, and he seemed to enjoy the challenge of taking control of and killing more than one person at a time. One more thing, his photograph in old news articles, is quite similar to the composite drawn by the police artist.

    IN 1935 U.S.A. things were quite different than today. In comparison, it was in a major Depression. Few people had cars. Many rode the rails as Hobo's, or Hitched rides. Many tourists and travelers were armed, but carried their pistols in the glove compartment. My own Dad always carried his nickle plated 38 snub nose there, when not in the field. Dad was a Game Warden and also later in traveling Sales.

    If accosted on the street, away from the 'glove campartment' they became basically helpless Victims. 'Concealed Carry' was not a common practice, due to many anti-gun laws. Back then, as todays 'hand wringers' believe, only the evil intentioned 'Carry Concealed'. That heavily flawed logic is still practiced today in certain 'High Crime' cities and states with highly Restrictive Anti-Gun laws. The Bad Guys love it that way.

    Within six months, Psychopathic Comer died in a point blank gunfight with an Oklahoma Marshall.... He had 'accumulated' three handguns from his Victims....
    Comer's death ended a rampant spree of murders (at least nine) in the Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico area of the southwest during his rampage. Although massive searches were organized, the majority of his victims bodies were never found.

    1 July 2010:
    Leslie Linthicum has now as well, added Career Psychopath Comer, as a suspect ("A person of interest?, as the news refers to them today).
    Two, now 80+ year old witnesses, the Marmon brothers, have alledgedly placed the gun loving, tatooed Comer, whom they say worked on the old Rte 66 road project around LaGuna Pueblo, as interested in the 'Owls Cave', One of the countless Lava Tubes in New Mexico's prevelent Malpais landscape
  • These are some pictures of the terrain


  • Other writers (Staley, from Las Cruces) associate the killer with Doc Noss at the Gold Cave. Sounds feasable, though mostly unsubstantiated. Also in question is the other supposedly hidden 'Cave' north of Vaughn. Reportedly the bodies are in that remote Cave. As Leslie mentions in the Alb Journal today, The case is expanding it's horizons..

    Anyone with more information to add about this crime, can contact Leslie Linthicum at the Albuquerque Journal.. linthicum@abqjournal.com .... She will pass it on to the authorities.

    House Arrest, 34 AWOL

    Defenseless Albuquerque Citizens now have 34 more reasons to remain very alert. Of course in addition to these 17 AWOL Afghanistan Specialists
  • that our U.S. State Department imports and 'supports'. The current local investigation of Vince Peele, the director of the CCP (Community Custody Program), has revealed now that 34 of it's 'House Arrest' inmates, (wearing ankle bracelets), are missing. Jeff Proctor of the Albuquerque Journal describes this ongoing fiasco in detail. Vince Peele, CCP Director, charged


  • It appears that 'Vince Peele' was taking bribes to get inmates out of jail and into the much more favorable and comfy, 'House Arrest'. Now we find out that 34 of the 490 CCP inmates are nowhere to be found, AWOL is the military term. One common sense Metro Court Judge, Sharon Walton, is herself reviewing eight cases so far.

    Judge Sharon Walton found one Rapist and two 'Violent' Offenders along with a couple of questionable 'others', she had no idea were released into the program. Vince Peele, charged with Bribery, Conspiracy, and Identity Theft, says all of the cases had been approved in private meetings with Judges (hmmm).

    Darren White the top boss of 'Public Safety', says this is not good for an officer in a traffic stop, to Not know the status of the person being stopped (desperate escapee). Remember Officer James McGrane?
  • He was murdered by Career, Repeat, Violent Offender Michael Paul Astorga (ACLU's Poster Boy)
  • during one such stop. Darren White was the County Sheriff at the time his Deputy was killed. He knows of what he speaks.

    I shudder to think of what is very likely to happen if a driver, with family along for the ride, crosses the Ire of these depraved individuals. If a good samaritan stops to help one of them....? Yes, they are 'encouraged' by our legal system to freely circulate among law abiding society.

    This latest revelation comes amid the on-going investigation of Peele (Robert Mugabe look alike). He easily posted his own $50,000 dollar bail. Who would have guessed.. Now we must deal with even more Career, Violent, Repeat Offenders than normally released into circulation among Law Abiding Society.

    District Court Chief Criminal Court Judge, Albert S. 'Pat' Murdoch, says: "As far as we're concerned, the system is working Fine"... (Yep Just Fine)
    Jail Captain Heather Lough said "This is not unusual, we will work hard to 'get them back".. BTW the Alb Police Union, wanting raises, is putting up a billboard "Less Cops, More Crime". Am I the only one seeing Irony at work here?

    During an email exchange with one of our State of NM Senators, Jeff Bingaman, He mentioned that the State of New Mexico was changing their 'Reciprocity'
  • agreement with Utah on their Concealed Carry License. Utah bases their CCW license on the ability to pass an FBI Background Check with Fingerprints, and the Certification Classroom training.

    Utah does not require that you actually 'score' on the target range. Many States are happily satisfied that the person is Law Abiding, FBI Certified and classroom trained by a Certified Instructor. NO problems have arrisen, because this group is comprised of a remarkably Law Abiding Demographic. Some states, Now including NM, Harry Reed's Nevada, and California of course (what did you expect?), along with a couple more anti-gun Liberal, Dominated states (Gun Free Zones, with predictably high crime rates) do not recognise Any CCW (Concealed Carry Weapon). The Second Amendment means absolutely Nothing to them..

    Totally Gun Free Zones and The toughest Gun Laws in the World, keep everyone safe...Right?


  • NM's Legislators have Attacked the Law Abiding Citizens, and encouraged the Criminally violent, to roam free. That makes perfect sense to our Liberal State Legislators, who as Lawyers, earn their living by the Legalistic Gymnastics of government. They depend on the Career, Violent, Repeat Offenders for their 'state taxpayer funded', income.. Prosecution AND Defense are paid by taxpayers.

    May I suggest that you join over Five Million Law Abiding U.S. Citizens that are now Certified to Carry a Concealed Weapon. 'USA Carry'
  • is just one organization, that has membership of over 10,000. Obtain your Concealed Carry Certification The Omega Defense
  • With Lawmakers and Bureaurocrats like this, You are going to need it. Joining Gun Owners of America is a good start
  • Apparently less Liberal than NRA :>)

    The Supreme court just declared 5 to 4, the "Right to Bear ARMS, shall not be infringed" just like Our 2nd Amendment of 'Our Bill of Rights' says. Daly's Chicago Ill. is now preparing a legal assault on the Decision, As will Blomberg and Schummer's New York City and all other Liberal controlled enclaves of the Liberal Leftists. Now that 'anti-gun' Kagan is being set into place, votes like this will most likely be reversed. The Leftists will have control of 'The Supremes'.

    One other note. In the buried back pages of the Albuquerque Journal, they had a very small paragraph describing an attack in another state. The Attacker used a KNIFE to Kill four people. Can you imagine the NEWS coverage, if the Career Attacker had used a GUN? BTW he had done this before.

    Career, Violent Repeat Offenders are the problem, NOT the GUNs. Unless You are Young, Super fast and powerful, also a master of the Martial Arts, You will at one time, need a GUN to protect Yourself and Your Family. The Liberal Leftists and their Media, work day and night 'hysterically' to convince YOU that the GUNS are the problem?.....

    VOTE wisely. Stay Armed. Enjoy life in the USA, "One Nation Under God"

    Let Them Shine, Casting Call

    Casting For "Let Them Shine", a 'Hallmark, Hall of Fame' project to be filmed in Albuquerque New Mesico, took place at the Hilton Inn on University June 12th and 13th. At 8am I arrived early to find about 50 people already waiting in the glassed in Garden Room. Robert Baxter, Casting Agency (BBS) arrived not long after. I had brought a book, knowing the waiting involved in any film work. Robert started early and handed out the white plasticized 'Boards' to write our names and skills, height, weight and age, type of vehicle, and phone numbers on.

    The 'Boards' are held up like a 'mug shot' during the quick 'Head Shot', then placed aside for a 'Body Shot'. The 'Boards' numbered 20. Not enough for the entire number of applicants arriving by the minute. I became the one 'wiper', Dane getting behind immediately while greeting the crowd and handing out the boards and pens. Robert asked if I wanted to do the 'camera work' while he wiped? My hands are not as steady as at one time. I told him 'I'm Good'...at wiping.

    Seeing the quickly developing backlog, I ended up Volunteering for the rest of the day. Robert and I have worked on several projects, so no problem. We wiped faster and faster, just to keep up. Heather showed up and helped, as did Dave and Hope. DRY Markers are not especially easy to completely wipe away. It eventually took a fast 'Goo Gone' wipe, followed by a wipe of Laquer Thinner. Soon the entire room had a distintive fragrance of Thinner.

    This kept up until 6 pm. At noon, Bob sent out for Bar-B-Q for the five of us that were staying to work. About 2pm a lull let me grab the sandwich. About 3pm a couple walked in, saw the bag of OUR chow and started ravaging through OUR bag, grabbing themselves a snack. Nervy to say the least. Parasitic to say the most.

    Julie intercepted them, but too late. Being very large people, they had quickly woofed down OUR food. Later I saw an elderly man, stumble and hit the wall outside our courtyard window. He dropped and lay still on the pavement. Robert rushed out to help. A quick call to security for a check of his vitals, and he was soon up and away...in spite of a bloody nose from hitting the wall.

    This film is made for TV, and as most Hallmark films, is more a 'Chick flick' according to info I received. Cars and trucks from the years previous to the mid 1980's are needed. Robert mentioned a possible place for me as a 'Homeless' individual for a three week session of filming. Sounds good, I have done 'Homeless' parts before, laying in gutters, hanging around burning barrels. An old grizzled and Bearded Geezer is limited in Background work. Now Westerns are quite another opportunity :>)

    TV's Crash found me as a 'Homeless' for one session. Dennis Hopper's Ben's) 'Hands' took up the rest of my talent on that run. Robert obtained that one for me also. RIP Dennis Hopper, I will take good care of your 'Hands'.

    'Wild Hogs' was a fun film, I worked with Robert on that film as well. He was Darlene Hanson's assistant back then as well as background, riding his Harley. Now Robert owns his own casting agency. Good work Robert, see you "On Set' within a few weeks...If all goes as planned :>)

    13 July 2010:
    Received call, It is a 'Go' for Monday. Will be called with instructions on Friday.
    Friday came and went, with no return call from Julie. I left messages after missing the morning phone call. On Sunday 18 July, Julie called and verified my 'call' time. Robert called once more after noting that the 'call number' still had the Friday information. It is a 'go' for Monday

    19 July 2010:
    Awoke at 3:23am, finalize wardrobe choice, leave home with Mapquest route supplied by wife. Arrive at old Santa Fe Railroad yard before 4:45 am call time. Greeted Robert Baxter on arrival. Breakfast quickly followed 'sign in' with bacon and eggs or a custom omelet.

    As sunup bathed the yard, we began the shoot. Steph (#2) and I walked toward the camera mounted on an older car, and the other homeless around barrels, burning the propane for effect. Not that we needed any heat, the day was very warm already. The scene takes place in Utah in the winter.

    We had to dress layered and warm. Gordon and other 'Wardrobe', worked to 'Dirty' us up (yes, including face and hands) after modifying and augmenting our wardrobe with 'props', (dirty 'catsup and mud' and shredded blankets, with worn duffels).

    We had been told to bring three 'changes', Spring, Summer and Winter. Heavy load of clothes for just this one scene. My U.S. Flag, on the front of my old 'Boonie' hat, didn't sit well with Gordon for some reason (personal?). He turned my hat backwards after blacking out the little U.S. flag with 'soot' powder. Hmmm? Predictable 'Hollywood'... or?

    After several various shots, and with minor adjustments to camera routine and placement (on the rolling cam rails), we got to rest out of the climbing sun, in the shade of the train cars. Stephanie (cute little 'background') suggested that we call ourselves 'The Train People'. Apparently it was a good suggestion, because we were often referred to as such by the Production Assistants (PA's).

    (Chicago) Tom, still likes Beets and Cottage Cheeze, an old friend from many various films, got to return for several days. Friend Nathan of 'NM Actors' website, was also 'on set'. The 'tall' brothers, Nathan and Tom, were on set as well as Ron and Sarge (Big Cigars).

    Sarge and I discussed his fame, being ticketed for selling his Cigars downtown. He won the case.. 'Becky' from the homeless scene of Crash, recognised me as her card playing partner, so we had a little catching up to do, by looking at her cellphone pics.

    Mike, a retired Petroleum engineer from the State of NM, was interesting for a Govt point of view. We all got to learn a few things about each other, during the long 'holding' periods in the old SFRR machine shop warehouse building Now housing the just barely 'Wheels Museum'.

    Chow line was set up (Mario's from Cal.), so we chowed down by 11:30am on delicious beef roast, chicken breast and fish. Good food on this set. More waiting and napping in our chairs, in front of the big AC tubes. Finally after 4pm we were divided into smaller groups, one retaining the 'Train People' designation.

    I and both Stephanies, along with several others, were let loose to go home. Bummer, no return 'call' scheduled for us. We must not have been what they were looking for. Only so much character a person can put into a few seconds shuffle of 'homeless'.

    We may, or may not be called for other scenes. Best to not hold our breath on that possibility. Glad This is not a major career to earn a living. Little Steph is taking educational courses to work with the crews. Sweet little girl, hope it works out for her.

    Van shuttle to 'extras' parking. Due to darknes on 'O dark 30' arrival, I forgot to put up windshield sunscreen. Hot steering wheel and even hotter car. Must have been over 100 degree day on Monday. Summer life in the High Deserts of New Mexico.

    Enjoy life in this "One Nation Under GOD" The United States of America.

    BEES Genetically Improved?

    As mentioned in previous posts
  • we have had a hive of wild bees for several years. Their 'Hawk Hive' is a large Hawk house mounted among the shady branches of a Walnut tree. Allowed to work to their hearts content and keep their self generated 'Wealth' of honey, settle their own disputes and elect their own leaders, they have proliferated.

    Nay... this Wild, Freedom Loving colony have done even more, their ability to produce fresh Swarms is highly noteworthy. Two Swarms that we have noticed already this year, were given to a local Beekeeper. Little did they know, that they were going into commercial 'bondage':>) Hive colonies are victims, especially in these times of unpredictable and devastating 'Hive Collapse', noticed by Bee keepers worldwide. The USA is not immune to this latest 'colony collapse disorder' in the world's Bee society. 1/3rd to 1/2 the worlds food depends on Bee Pollination. Their hives can contain up to 100,000 Bees. 'Colony Collapse Disorder' (CCD) manifests itself, when the foraging Bees fail to return to their hives, and are never to be seen again.

    Theories abound of the causes. Some scientists imagine a scenario where the cell phone and microwave systems disorient the hard working little flying machine's navigation systems. Others suspect insecticides or environmental polution, possibly a fungus. Many are investigating Genetically Manufactured crops as the culprit
  • Still other scientists run tightly controlled Field Tests to find hard facts
  • Others suspect microparasites along with the known fungus disease. Australian Bees are now under scrutiny for a disease that could possibly be Exported to other countries. Even Al Gore is excitedly claiming 'Climate Change', as if Bees historically have never ever dealt with 'That'. I can assure you, our neighborhood is urban in nature and has extreme 'climate change', very strong cell service with neighbors spraying whatever on their G.M. vegetation. Just like most city folks, our neighbors do the same things. Our Bees do not say ' Mate' or 'Crikey', so they are presumably not Australian.

    Our own little Bees forage and return each day, and prosper with little difficulty. We do NOT interfere.. Well one neighbor told me they do endlessly sip at his colorful Hummingbird reservoir. He says they are docile and greatly appreciate his efforts. Mostly when he frees them from inside the empty bottle. Dozens of polite little Bees buzz around him, patiently waiting for a 'refill'. One took ten minutes to fully recuperate...while sitting on his hand.

    One thing NOT done on our endlessly productive hive, is 'Harvest' (excessively TAX or Rob) their hard earned and saved Wealth. We allow our 'Heavily Armed' (stingers), individual wild Bees to keep their hard earned Honey, banish or kill their non-productive counterparts, defeat their enemies and function as Nature designed them, no matter how 'unfair' it seems to some people.

    A bee arrives at the entranceway. Another Bee glares into her eyes, checking her scent, identifying her as a 'Productive' Citizen of their hive. If 'all' identity and citizenship criteria is met, 'She' is allowed to enter. Woe be to any alien intruder.. Our rudimentary knowledge of 'The Birds and the Bees' catagorize Bee society as basically Workers, Drones, and Queens... No 'Posers' allowed.

    As the hive becomes crowded due to increased population of a prosperous colony, the workers (female) decide to create a new Queen, 'Royal Jelly' is fed to a particular chosen Female. She grows larger, becomes gorgeous, shapelier and becomes Fertile. The attractive, Drones ('buff' males) 'created' by the workers, then swarm along with the workers and 'New' queen on her sexual mating frenzy (party time).

    At this time, Sex and choosing sides, is the only thing on their mind. Stinging Attacks are not in their Day Planer. People ignorant of this phenomenon, run and scream with terror, calling 911. Absolutely Foolish, but many Fools are among us.

    A Swarm of swooning followers, attracted by her enticing scent (fanned into the air by her loyal cabinet members), excitedly collect around the new Queen. The other workers chose and divide loyalty (election time), between their secure but boring ancestral home or the exciting prospects of a New and uncertain Future with their New Queen.


    Scouts are sent out to locate a suitable dwelling within a reasonable radius of their original home. When the new cavity or shelter is found, they all follow the Scouts directions (the Map dance) and fly away to form a New colony. The few remaining original ancestral home Workers, then begin anew to build a next generation.

    Drones are nurtured by the workers for one reason only..mating. Drones have big dreamy eyes, are larger, muscular and attractive... unarmed and helpless. They cannot even feed or defend themselves. They live for one purpose only.. SEX with the Queen. They are allowed to die quickly afterward. The fertilized Queen stores their sperm in chambers to fertilize her future generations of eggs.

    If the present Queen 'Mother' begins to falter in the egg laying and larva producing department, the Workers quickly raise a New Queen. The New Queen then seeks out and kills (stings) it's own Mother. Sounds harsh, but that's their 'survival designed' DNA at work. Only the workers and Queens have Self Defense weapons, STINGERS.

    In Nature, the Predators have found out the hard way, Don't mess with Bees. They are armed and dangerous. They will sting, even at times giving their own lives in the process. The Africanized Bees, though not yet having the ability to withstand cold temperatures (they don't 'bunch up'), have an ability to communicate and coordinate massive, relentless attack. These attacks to be sometimes deadly to unsuspecting victims who present themselves as an adversary (Robber or IRS :>)

    Again... 'Don't mess with Bees', they are 'Armed' and can defend themselves. Of course professional Bee Keepers understand the ways to circumvent this natural behavior and 'Harvest' a certain percentage of the 'Wealth' of Honey created by the colony. Take too much, and the colony becomes frustrated or malnourished, and collapses..DIES.

    We all know how Bees are one of the major Pollinators to ensure our own production of food. Without them, we are in 'Deep Doo-doo'. Just our own vegetables and fruit production alone would be threatened immensly without Bees. They are so important, as to be 'trucked' to each crop location, needing to be seasonaly pollinated.

    Though not practised (that I am aware) We now have the uncanny and downright scary ability to 'Genetically Manufacture/Engineer' (alter) Bees. Russia does 'selective breeding'
  • To 'Improve'? their Design. Theoretically our talented scientists can now even manipulate the Bees natural DNA to produce Docile, 'Dis-armed' Bees... 'Without Stingers'.
    They would be absolutely safe, no threat or danger, be Fair and all Equal (presumably), forced to get along with others and not disagree (especially with the bigger and stronger). Perceived Utopia would be achieved, wouldn't that be nice.... Or would it?

    Without their own individual Weapons, they would not have any way to dispense with marauding Predators or deal with enemies (colony's external and Internal) of their natural, perfectly designed and balanced society. Birds would quickly discover that Bees were tasty, harmless, easy to catch food particles. Like this natural predator has a talent for doing


  • Any Predator, especially Humans, would have absolutely no qualms about 'Harvesting' the Wealth of Honey (exhorbitant taxation, blatant robbery) from the Helpless, newly 'Disarmed' Bees, rapidly demoralizing their, once prosperous, colonies into disfunction (Zimbabwe) and eventual extinction. The non-productive Queens would be allowed to remain on their thrones until all of their hives totally collapsed of their new and un-natural 'human scientificaly designed' proclivity for weakness.

    Happily for the Bees, the Dis-arming is not being done. Well yes and no, This species of bird disarms Bees... by force
  • There are those in 'This' Government and Media that are tirelessly working to convince society to throw down their 'arms' or have them confiscated under a 'new' UN mandate.

    The results historically have proven a disaster of un-imaginable proportion, far overshadowing Any claims of 'perceived' Safety. BTW Beware when agenda driven Bleeding Heart Media, claims 'Saving Children' from being innocent Victims.. The actual Victim Count is millions of magnitudes greater, 'After' a nation's society is dis-armed..... and Helpless...

    Being a natural survivor (my DNA), I easily see an inherent danger for any productive society to allow itself to become 'Dis-armed'
  • The private ownership of modern, up to date Personal Weapons is inherent to the proliferation of a balanced and healthy society structure. Anyone unclear on the natural tendencies of society, in their quest for unobtainable Utopia, are basically clueless in the concept of continuation of Life on Earth, let alone Freedom.

    Protect Your Family, Remain consistantly Armed FBI Data confirms it effective method to deter Crime
  • . Take a training course, become Certified
  • If comfortable with it, Carry a Weapon.

    As with Natures perfectly designed Bees, "It is better to have a Weapon and Never need it, than to desperately Need it, and NOT have one".
