Celtic Thunder - Working Man (Live From Poughkeepsie / 2010 / Lyric Video)

Kadizzle worked as a coal miner. It was the proudest time of my life. Underground coal miners are a breed apart. It was a wonderful experience that taught me so much. I will never again go underground. 

Back in the saddle fighting the rodents

Republican rodents tear down Harris political signs every night. It is almost a pleasure to replace the signs. Republicans are mean nasty people. It was Trump's gang that called Puerto Rico a floating garbage dump, Trumps rodents give you the finger and shout nasty things. The rodents drive large goofy pickup trucks that deliberately spew black smoke, the rodents carry guns, the rodents lie, cheat and steal. What can you say good about the Trump gang?

It has become a morning ritual to jump on the motorcycle and see what damage the Republican rodents have done. Kadizzle always puts up two signs for every one the rodents destroy. Democrats were short of signs, but we got a huge shipment. 

On a small scale Payson, our new home has become a mini Trump disaster. The three Tea Party Rats got elected because the independents did not understand how to vote. Now we have a mini Trump regime ruining the town. 

Steve Otto, the disaster of Payson, Arizona

Steve Otto is a lying little curmudgeon. With the help of the worst elements in Payson, our little town, Steve Otto, and the Hoopleheads have destroyed years of work that would have taken Payson forward. Infected with the Tea Party mentality these Trump like dolts have destroyed Payson's bond rating. No one wants to issue bonds to a town with Steve Otto as mayor. Normal people failed to vote and the rodents put three stooges into the town council. Payson was about to issue 70 million dollars in bonds for improvements to the town, the rodents put an end to it. 

Otto and his assistant dolt Charlie Bell must be taken the heat. Both the rodents showed up at town council pleading it wasn't them that ruined the future. Nope, you have chocolate all over your mouth, but you did not eat the candy. Otto is not even in office yet. Still his path of destruction is well underway. If Trump is president and Otto is mayor we have a very dim future to look forward to. This morning Kadizzle found out an old friend committed suicide. He was a Trump supporter and Fox News watcher. That is one way to turn off Fox News. 

Kadizzle in Denver

Morning in Denver. The train was under repair from the airport and it was a slow trip, sometimes just stopping. Like road repair. The marvelous grandchild was to be in the play "Sister Act" and grandpa made the trek to see her perform. Sylvie goes to the Denver School for the Arts. When that outfit puts on a play it is a professional production. The work the kids put into was unbelievable. The orchestra was astounding, as was the singing and acting. 

Kadizzle is from a family of nine and should be used to people piled up, but awakening this morning in laws were sleeping on every soft surface. When Sylvie does a play everyone from North Dakota to Arizona comes. 

Kadizzle goes to sleep early, but everyone else eats and drinks till after midnight. Coffee time is near, so here we go. May take Sylvie out for a driving lesson today. 

What happens when you strike gold

 Why not have a lavish lifestyle? On occasion Kadizzle visits people with acute prosperity. The money backed up on them and what were they going to do? They were not going to help some poor family or charity. After all they earned it. God gave it to them. In reality the more than likely just inherited most of the cheese. Maybe they hit gold with a crooked ambulance chasing lawyer, or it could have been the lottery. 

Yesterday Kadizzle ran into a man's house who had three airplanes in the hanger he called his garage. Do you really need three airplanes? Does happiness multiply? If one fancy car makes you happy, do two double your happiness? How many rooms do you need in your house? On it goes. Then comes the big buck guys who have mega yachts. 

What is the point? If these people could share the money they think they earned, perhaps we could live in a better world. Look at the money wasted on this political campaign. 

What are taxes? A tax is a form of forced sharing. You want a yacht, but society needs a school. F**K you. No, you use your cheese to buy tax breaks. Perfectly legal to buy a couple congressmen. If you own Tesla, maybe Tesla can buy the congressmen for you. Wow, being filthy rich is a job. Look at the mother of all thief's Donald Trump. Trump is busy selling Bibles and Tennis shoes just to stay afloat. This degrading lifestyle even though Trump claims to have billions. 

Blinded by idiocy

This is the crucial stage. If there are normal people who have not voted they may be able to save the country from the Hoopleheads. Kadizzle just watched the town council meeting on a video. The Hoopleheads go elected. Payson will be in the hands of lying idiots. How is that going to work? Now imagine the United States in the hands of lying idiots. 

It could easily happen. Can you imagine the same Donald Trump who talked about Arnold Palmer's penis at a rally giving a State of The Union Address? Trump is simply mentally ill. Why can't the cult see that? If you are a normal person Kadizzle begs you to vote for Harris. Get other normal people to vote. This will be the most important vote of your lifetime. Trump, if elected will rain hate, and insanity on every person. You just cannot sit there and let it happen. 

Truckbuddy in court today

Today Warren and the kid who tears down our signs had to appear in court. The kid was smart and pleaded guilty. Warren likes a good show that features lying, and some live mental illness. Well, Warren asked for a trial. Don't think that will go well unless he get the crooked Republican judge. At least six people can testify about Warren going off the deep end. Not good Warren. So more fun to come.  

Almost a psychology degree

Kadizzle went to college about a thousand years ago. A favorite course was psychology. If Kadizzle had taken a few more hours of psychology he would have had a degree in the subject. Kadizzle ended up with a teaching degree and went on to pursue a masters degree in administration. Never got the masters degree. All Kadizzle needed was the thesis, but marriage got in the way. 

People are fascinating. How the dingers, and the Hoopleheads think is fascinating. Doug is lost in space, but he runs from his home a successful machining business. Warren seems capable of doing electrical circuits, but his mind goes off the tracks with weird political nonsense. The question is how does he same mind function in one area and fail in another? Trump has shown us who is mentally incapable of seeing the light. A normal person can easily see Trump is a deranged con man, but the Hoopleheads just cannot recognize Trump is nuts. 

Mislead is the word that comes to mind. If you talk to a person caught up in delusion more than likely you will find one thing in common they all have. Strangely it is supplements. Almost every delusional person has five or six bottles of magic stuff they take every day. Now some of the crap may do some good, but the reality is if you eat normal food correctly you will get what you need for your brain to function correctly. However, those prone to delusion always latch onto the need for supplements. Get a Costco sale flyer, what are the selling? Bottles of pills. 

The easily deluded mind never goes far enough in the proof game. Just some goofy person saying a good story is all it takes for a Hooplehead to buy in. Crooked TV preachers have mastered the technique of telling the Hooples he story the want to hear. Hooples want a simple solution, Jesus, and they want to be told their mess is not their fault.  Trump knows the game. 

What do you end up with? You end up with millions of busted flat Hoopleheads, and dingers that are easy prey for Trump, and the TV preachers. The first to realize this gold mine of stupidity was he Catholic Church. Nothing sells like salvation. How much does it cost to manufacture salvation? The theme is always believe. Believe in the pills, believe in Jesus, believe in Trump. To be a good Hoople you have to believe without proof or you can have discount proof. Discount proof is where the conspiracy theories thrive. Miracles are the original conspiracy theories. Modern crooks like Trump have polished lying into an art. Eight, skate, and donate is always part of salvation. Pay too much for the pills, Trump's Bible, or just give ten percent to the church. What do you get? You get to believe. So what if you get to believe something that is not true, the price was good. Now you can believe you are going to heaven, Trump is going to quit cheating people, and the TV preacher deserves 40 million dollars.

Bug Fucking Crazy Donald Trump

Crazy delusional people are fun, but Kadizzle does not want one for president, Gabe does. Confront the Gabe's of the world with how nuts Trump is and they just stutter. Kadizzle asked Gabe to explain Trump's remarks about Arnold Palmer's penis at his rally in Latrobe Pennsylvania. All Gabe could come up with is a story about Biden taking a shower with his daughter. Now, think of the contrast. The Republicans cooked up the Biden story based on a diary some cleaning lady stole. Strangely Biden's daughter is a strong supporter of her dad. Now, put that conspiracy story beside Trump telling his Arnold Palmer crap in front of hundreds of people. Who do you believe. Gabe believes the crazy stolen diary story with no proof, and Gabe's head just spins trying to explain Donald's crazy stuff. 

This is the cult. Gabe is the classic cult member. Give them anything to help their delusion and they will buy it. A man claims he is a billionaire, and he is selling gold tennis shoes, bibles, and watches for $100,000. This seems perfectly normal to the cult. Why not says Gabe. Gabe if you had a billion dollars would you sell Bibles from China? Sure and maybe some tennis shoes. Now Gabe you are a dirt farmer, why not sell gold tennis shoes and Bibles? Gabe just can't figure it out. Wouldn't you like to shower with Trump Gabe, and get a free penis assessment?

Bret Stephens

 Who in the hell is Bret Stephens? Gail Collins writes a column for the New York times. The Dingers, and Hoopleheads do not read the New York Times it is too intellectual for them. Bret Stephens goes back and forth with Gail Collins in her column today. Why bring this up? Bret wants to be a hard core Republican as bad as any Hooplehead, but he is going to vote for Harris. Kadizzle dares every idiot to read the column. 

Bret says he has to vote for Harris because Trump is bug fucking crazy. Warren can't see that, Dough can't see that nor can the rest of the cult. Bret is different from the cult people he is educated and reads real stuff. 

The mind grows, but at some point for some it stops. The dingers and Hoopleheads get stuck in an early phase of brain development. This used to be called retarded. Retarded means held back. Held back from reality, held back from considering evidence. 

Evidence suggest the Earth is round, even most Hooples agree to that. A round Earth means a different thought process and a different reality. At some point that reality could not be denied. Trump is mentally ill that is a reality. Of course the Hoopleheads, the Dougs, and the Warrens want to deny reality. 

The election is coming like a steam engine, and we will be smashed with hope or disaster. Every day Trump says something more insane and meaner. 

Did the Hooples read about Trump's last rally? One subject Trump hit on was the size of Arnold Palmer's penis? A man who wants to be president talking about being in the shower with Arnold Palmer? He is simply nuts, his bolts are loose. Doug's bolts are loose, Warren's bolts are loose so they see absolutely nothing wrong with Trump. That should tell you how it works. You are a little mentally ill so you see nothing wrong with Trump who has major mental illness. 

Rampant Mental illness

 Kadizzle hopped in the car to see what damage the Republicans did to our Harris signs last night. Not too bad. First Kadizzle met Doug, mental case number one. Of course Dough voted for Trump. Trump is like a magnet for the mentally ill. Next was Warren or as he goes by in the comments Truckbuddy. Both these guys come from disfunctional families. That is a common trait. Now think about it. 71 million people voted for Trump the last time. That number could be the same this time. 71 million delusional mentally ill? Wow. Trump is mentally ill and that explains why the mentally ill identify with him. 

What is mental illness? Once you leave reality you get into the world of the mentally ill. Must qualify how far you get from reality has a lot to do with it. Facts, drive the mental cases nuts. Talk to someone who runs when you bring up facts and you know what happens. Trump said he would not go on any interview or debate that did fact checking. Is that a tip off?

When Kadizzle voted he had a long conversation with the county recorder. She seemed like a fine decent normal person, and that she had a good handle on running fair elections. Then the bomb came. She said she was going to home school her kids. When the why came she went off the tracks. She claimed in Globe Arizona schools they have kitty litter boxes in the schools for kids that want to declare themselves "Furbees". That is some kind of cat like animal. Really? No one in their right mind would believe such nonsense, but it is the old my uncles cousins aunts grandmother saw it. 

Kadizzle has tried to call the schools to check on this nonsense, but could not get anyone to answer the phone. 

Now if your nuts nothing is better than someone who will reinforce your insanity. No problem. Go on the internet and there will be a person who will backup any insane idea you have. No offense, but religion is a mild form of insanity, and sometimes a severe form of insanity. Religion was the first great scam. People were asked to believe with no evidence. God made it rain, god killed my enemies, and so on. 

A normal person can speculate. You might speculate mosquitos carry malaria. There is a lot of proof for that. On the other hand there is no proof immigrants in Ohio eat pets, but on the internet you can get the proof crazy people love. 

Now, for the scary part. There are at least 71 million mentally ill roaming our country. They have the right to vote. Will the normal people out number them? Germany was the lesson for everyone. That country got sucked into a cult, and a disaster. Trump is the modern Hitler giving the ignorant, and mentally ill what they want. Ignorant people are easily fooled. The mentally ill love to be fooled. So are we on the verge of a possible disaster? How many ignorant people are there? Ignorance to a large degree is random. That means half the population is more ignorant than the other half. 

Do you want a simple test to determine if a person is ignorant or mentally ill? Just ask them if they are going to vote for Trump. They have to be one or the other, and maybe both. 

Kadizzle has a hard time thinking someone like Doug o Warren is totally incapable of thinking. Dough is a machinist, and Warren seems to be somewhat of a electrician. What does that leave us with? You guessed it mental illness. Where does it come from? The best guess is a misguided childhood. So many times you look into the past of the mentally ill and it started young. Ignorance is very much the same. Ignorant children usually were produced by ignorant parents. Reality has left the stage, and now delusion, and Trump have replaced it. 

You know what you know and you don' know what you don't know

 Not too long ago Kadizzle was on a train going 187 miles an hour. The train stayed on the tracks. What happens when the train comes off the tracks, Trump is elected. Once you leave the realm of reality the train is off the tracks. Religion is not based on reality. The Trump cult is not based on reality, Fox News is not based on reality. 

No one knows why we are here, how we got here or where we are going. It is that simple, but we are here, or at least seem to be. Believing in the unprovable is called a theory. You can have a theory you can fly, but out of some assistance gravity will get the best of you. You can pray for rain, but watering the plants works better. 

Scoundrels thrive on people willing to leave reality. Churches make a fortune, and so does Trump. Selling hope, especially false hope has been a historical scam those like Trump and Hitler could not resist. 

If you play a slot machine, you will lose given enough time. That is the reality, yet the casino is packed with people who cannot come to grips with that reality. 

Yesterday Kadizzle met Mary the bar owner. Mary has been tearing down our political signs. There was a dispute about who owned the property near her bar. The police got Mary strait, she cannot tear down our signs. Kadizzle pulled into Mary's parking lot and Mary came over to give him the chew. We ended up having a fairly nice conversation. Kadizzle could see Mary's pack of menthol cigarettes. Mary had a deep raspy voice. The weeds were killing her, that is reality. Kadizzle tried to tell Mary she had to quit smoking. No, way, reality just did not matter. That is the nature of bad things, a moment of feel good and a lifetime of disaster. That will be Trump if we make him dictator. 

Kadizzle got danced

Kadizzle go that terrible urge people get when they decide to buy a new car, but in this case it was a motorcycle. The old Yamaha was just that old, but it did the job. It was a great motorcycle. It had some scratches, and needed a couple of minor parts. 

Bargaining with the dealer we came to the conclusion Kadizzle would pay $4,700 to walk out the door with a new motorcycle. Well that didn't happen. It cost Kadizzle an additional $200. What went wrong?

Mistake A was taking the old motorcycle off the truck assuming the deal was done.  Now, the dealer waltzed the motorcycle into the shop and had his mechanic go over it. Kadizzle was basically kept away from that process. It took the mechanic a long time to find everything in the world wrong with the motorcycle. In the end Mr. Mechanic said it would take $900 dollars to put the motorcycle in condition to sell. It did need the carburetor rebuilt. Kadizzle had paid the guy in Cottonwood once $10 to do this. The dealer said it would be something like $200.  A new clutch handle was needed, and the switch for the turn signal was sticky. So the salesman called the good old Yamaha hammered. 

Kadizzle had told the mechanics to take off the brush guards, and the little luggage rack before he knew what was coming. The salesman had Kadizzle in the perfect place. Load up the cycle and go home to put it back together or pay the hostage fee. Well Kadizzle paid the fee. Part of the $900 repair bill was jacked up prices for labor. 

Laying in bed Kadizzle realized he basically just gave the old motorcycle away. Live and learn. 

Chris Barber feat Mark Knopfler - the next time I'm in town -

A new motorcycle

 A few things in life bring a lot of pleasure. Today my old friend the old Yamaha 250XT is going to be traded for a new one. Kadizzle had a lot of good rides on the old beast, but it needs a new chain, and a few other things so Kadizzle thought why not jut get a new one. The dealer said 5K, Kadizzle said 4.5 K. Kadizzle said it was a deal at 4.5 and told the dealer he would scratch his nut on the 5k price and might pay it in the morning, but  if they wanted to sell it today they had to do 4.5k.  Figuring the dealer would not budge Kadizzle was going to go to bed. The dealer called and said 4.7.  Kadizzle had actually planned to got to 4.75 in the morning. Well, anyway, the deal is done. Kadizzle saved 300.  This morning a trip to Scottsdale to pick up a new cycle. For an old man the 25OXT is perfect. It is the right size, nimble and perfect for mountain roads, and running around town. 

The Republicans that tear our Harris signs down must be worn out. We got a shipment of hundreds of new signs. We get to put them up in the daylight and the rotten bastards have to get up late at night to tear them down. 

The final battle is on and the Democrats in Payson got a good group working hard. Trump will be the worst president in history if the greedy con man gets elected. His brain is toast. Dancing for 40 minutes at his rally takes the cake. Trump is simply mentally ill. Why his cult doesn't see it. So many think it is an act. Nope, he is nuts. 

Lawfare

Warren and Kadizzle discussed the term he brought up, lawfare. What is it? Lawfare is warfare using the courts. Using the courts for political purposes is extremely destructive for democracy. Kadizzle has experienced it right here in Payson. Republicans Kadizzle has found do not hesitate to make false claims, and file false charges. Gary Morris, and Steve Otto are two that come to mind. Both lie and claim Kadizzle was arrested twice in North Dakota. It is simply untrue. Gary Morris made this claim in court when he lied under oath several times. Steve Otto is now claiming Mike Quinn was not a municipal judge in North Dakota for 25 years. Anyone can use public records to establish these Republican liars are telling falsehoods, yet they continue to do so. Yesterday a lunatic right wing person threatened to kill Kadizzle. He also implied he would go to court and have people lie. This is how lawfare works. If you really want to have a mess let the judge become involved. When the Republicans have their hands in electing the judge the entire situation is hopeless. Trump showed how supreme court justices can be picked and manipulated. Lawfare will be the rule of the land if Trump is elected. Currently the local Republicans are trying to mess up Payson using the courts. Payson is issuing bonds to improve the town. The Hoopleheads took the town to court once to stop progress and failed. However they are giving it a second try. It cost the town money and it is an underhanded way to stop progress.  

Warren the Crazy man

Repairing the signs the Republicans damaged over night I ran into Warren. We talked for some time. If you don't talk politics with Warren, you might think he is normal, but get into politics and Warren is in the fog. Warren is obsessed because Harris was not nominated. 

Kadizzle has been studying Hoopleheads. Try this, go out and encounter a right wing Hooplehead. Ask them what their problem is? Strangely you will find they are all on the same page. The UPS man came to Democratic headquarters yesterday, guess what his obsession was? Yup he was obsessed because Harris did not go through the normal nomination process. What does this mean? Well all he Hooples are getting the same right wing news feed. Remember Hitler and the Jews? Hitler was he news feed, and his cult repeated whatever his recent hate filled lie was. Cults work this way. 

Cult members thing like this " I have failed, but it is not my fault, I need someone to help me blame someone else because I failed" . Trump comes along and tells the bum the failure person " The Democrats made you fail".  That works for the person who failed. Trump didn't fail, the Democrats cheated him. This makes Trump the perfect cult leader. Trump claims he has been abused. The cult can identify with that. Talk to a cult member and you will be talking to a failed person. They may have failed economically, socially, or to drugs and alcohol. No one wants to admit they failed because they were lazy or stupid or poorly educated. No one wants to admit they failed because of a bunch of poor decisions. What does Trump do? Trump tells them of course their miserable life was not their fault, someone else tricked them. Of course the ultimate trickster is Trump. It is Trump who wants to sell the failures Bibles, and Tennis shoes.

Selling defeated people illusions was an invention of the church. Tell the person to believe things that are just not true and all will turn good for them. In the church you have to die to correct things, but Trump can fix it while you are alive. Sadly if you were a failure before Trump, you will be a failure after he is elected. The last time he was president, you were still a failure.  

Cult expert explains the Trump cult

Area 51 Truck

Kadizzle had a conversation with Truckbuddy, aka Warren this morning. Trying to find him a new place to park. If you want a tour of his semi he lives in watch the video. Warren is obsessed with right wing insanity and loves to be aggressive with it. Kadizzle sort of sympathizes with him because Kadizzle is a bit of a left wing nut. Just need to move into the back of a tractor trailer. 

One thing Kadizzle learned this morning is how the right wing mind works. To be a good right winger you need to be a liar or crazy. Combining both works best. Trump has mastered that. Warren taught me this morning how the right wing mind works. Warren claimed he is independently wealthy. Why would an independently wealthy person live in the back of a truck? Makes no sense. Trump says he is a billionaire, but Trump is selling Bibles, tennis shoes, and, watches. He also defrauded college students out of 25 million. It make no sense to sell Bibles if you are a billionaire. You know when you are talking to a cult person when they tell  you two completely contradictory things. Do they realize how absurd they are? Apparently no. 

Find another crazy person you can agree with

 One thing Kadizzle has found talking to cult members is their ability to stay away from real information. The number of cult people who actually believe dogs and cats are being eaten by immigrants in Ohio is astounding. The 17 year old kid down at the golf course believes it. Of course the crazy guy Warren believes it. Cult people seek out someone who will fill them full of insane cult ideas. There are plenty of people out there who know how to abuse ignorant people. The old fashioned crooked preaches know better than anyone how to rob stupid people. 

Yesterday Kadizzle got to know the guy who is in the comments as truckbuddy. He is the guy living in a semi.  Go to any of the links he provides in his comments and you will find every kind of person spreading the false information the cult thrives on. 

Something escapes these people. At the casino on any given day a flock of people is being fleeced. If they had a pen and paper they could figure it out. Nope, they believe against all math they can win. They don't, but the idea of hope is addictive to them. 

A theory: People in the cult have a deep feeling they are stupid. You feel stupid when no one agrees with your goofy ideas, but what if someone told you that you were right and all the smart people were wrong? Well, look on youtube and you can find someone that will make you feel smart no matter if you an idiot. Only an idiot would fall for Trump's lies, but there is no shortage of people who will bolster the idea he is an honest business man. 

One thing that gives a lot of cult people away is their medicine cabinet. Truckbuddy was a prime example. Truckbuddy had a shelf lined with magic elixirs. People do need vitamins and minerals. The question is which ones, and how much. No doubt some people can benefit from certain concoctions. However, there is something called evidence and proof. Most of the crap sold to cultist type people accomplishes nothing but emptying their pockets. Clever marketers get the cultist to buy stuff with unproven claims. Cultist are in the cult because they do not understand how you do research or prove something to be true. Trump lies to the cult everyday and the cult believes his lies. When you research Trump the way educated people outside the cult do it is clear Trump is a lying con man. 

Another strange thing about cult people is they all think covid shots were some great conspiracy. Cult people love the concept that they know something most people don't know. Religious nuts are the same. They are sure of something you cannot be sure of. The election will show if people living in reality are in the majority or if we have succumbed to mass stupidity. 

Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe

This video shows the best part of my trip to Europe. Switzerland was my favorite, a place I always wanted to see. I made it to the observatory on the top. 

A quick note to coward commenters.

Dear cowards who will not identify themself. The rule is your comment comes down if you will not put a name to it. 

Before Kadizzle has written about the runners, and the cowards. They are the little men who don't have the courage to confront you directly. Poor old Trump runs into the problem when he debates with Harris. Harris murdered him. What is Trump's answer? No more debates. The runners and he cowards are exactly the same. When they get cornered with facts, or the truth, they run. Gabe is a classic. Kadizzle called Gabe. Gabe did not want to hear the real story, so Gabe would not let the conversation be two sided. The famous runners in Payson, are Michael Heather, Gary Morris, and Steve Otto. These typical coward claim you assaulted them if you confront them about their lying. What does KMOG do if you hit them with facts. Very simple they will not take your calls. What does the Tea Party do if you show up with facts, very simple they throw you out. This is how the Republican MAGA Hoopleheads operate. 

No one has been denied a voice at our Democratic meetings. Of course Michael Heather, Gary Morris, and Steve Otto don't come to our meetings to tell their lies. The runners know they would be welcome, but what fun is it lying to people who know you are a cheap liar. Why not go on KMOG, or to the Tea Party and lie with other liars that will clap when you make a good lie or distortion unchallenged?  Steve Otto and a couple of the other liars got elected. What will Steve do when confronted at town hall about his lies? It will be a very good show. 

Two Crazy Men Talk

 Warren, and Kadizzle had a nice civil conversation today. Warren is the guy who is obsessed with the fact Harris was not nominated. Warren has gotten a little out of hand and will have to go to court for his recent antics on Highway 87 while the Democrats were campaigning. Kadizzle was fixing up signs on Main street that the Republicans destroyed during the night. They destroy our signs every night. Not sure how free speech works for Republicans. 

Anyway my conversation with Warren drifted and we talked about his home. Warren has converted a full sized tractor trailer unit to a very interesting RV.  From the outside it looks just like any large truck that would go down the road, butt Warren has done some interesting things to take advantage of the huge living space inside. The first thing Kadizzle noticed climbing into the trailer was a wood fireplace. The wood fireplace had a copper coil wrapped around the exhaust vent. This supplied hot water for his water heater  and he shower. He said it worked pretty well. The trailer had solar on the roof and a very big batter that would run a microwave, and all his televisions. He had three flat screen televisions, and good internet service. In the bathroom Warren had a regular household toilet, and a full sized shower. He had a nice double bed for himself. Amazing how much space he had. Additionally he had a full sized kitchen with sink, and cooking facilities. 

With a truck this size doing stealth camping is not all easy. Where do your park. Warren was parked behind Walmart, but the police made him move. Currently he is parked behind a gas station. Kadizzle suggested Forest Service Land. 

Warren has an electrical background and some very interesting wiring in his home. Kadizzle has often wondered what kind of RV you could make out of such a truck. The answer is a roomy one. One maybe major problem, no windows. There would seem to be a way to overcome that. Part of the regular outside trailer could hide windows. Get on that project Warren. 

Tommy Fleming - Don't Give Up Till Its Over

Take it

When Kadizzle was young he had a habit of listening to crooked preachers on WWVA the famous radio station in his home town of Wheeling, West Virginia. One night while listening to a black preacher the preacher said " Do you realize when you are on your knees to pray, you are in an ideal position to be kicked in the ass?". Then he went on to say " Don't ask God for anything, take it". What he was saying was empower yourself. It was a great lesson. Democrats ask for  something, the rotten Republicans just take it. Trump is a thief, he stole from everyone. Trump is not bashful, he lies like a snake. 

Meek, mild, and polite, is killing the Democrats. Republicans are not meek or mild, they don't hesitate to be hard core nasty rats. Unfortunately the simple minded admire the hard core rats. What other country has made heroes out of villains more than the United States. 

American loves the image of the guy who comes into town and shakes things up. Trump thrives on that crap. Why did Mahamoud Ali make such a big splash? " Fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee".  Democrats are humming birds. 

Oh it will be just fine, we don't have to worry. Bullshit, Trump is about to become dictator and destroy the country. 

Tommy Fleming -Hard Times

Rampant Mental illness at the library.

 In every town the library is where the mentally ill gather to celebrate other worlds. Naturally Kadizzle went there. At the bar last night Kadizzle told John there were three mental cases at the library when he arrived. John asked " Did that include you?". No, that made four. 

Mike F. and Kadizzle were going to sit in front of the library with political signs. The mental fireworks started as soon as we were getting the signs out of the car. Mental cases A and B were over by B's beat up Junker motor home arguing loudly. Kadizzle thought mental case A might be the some nut case that was driven out of Democratic headquarters by the police last Saturday. It was. When mental case A saw our signs he immediately came over on his bike and started a verbal assault. Out of the blue a mental woman also started verbally assaulting us. 

We got our signs and sat in our chairs with the signs. Mental case A came over and made an extreme verbal attack on us. Dave from the library came out and told A he had to leave. Several times Dave warned A that if he did not leave the police would be called. Mental case A persisted and Dave phoned the police.

Mental case A made a good decision and pedaled off on his bike. Now, the funny part. Two police cars showed up, but as the drove down the road, they drove right by A going the other way. Then the confusion started. Somehow the police thought the problem was at the dog park next to the library. Mental case B was now over there. B engaged the police in a crazy way and the police thought B was the nut case they were seeking. Kadizzle could see the problem and explained to the police they had the wrong mental case. Kadizzle showed them a picture of B.  

The whole situation calmed down and life returned to normal. Where crazy lady went who knows. The other day another mental case was explaining to Kadizzle she moved to Payson, because there were 1,000 spirits living here. Apparently a lot of those spirits are mentally ill and hang out at the library. 

Now, last, but not least. One would think people going into a library would have a certain level of intelligence, not so. The very people in the Trump cult apparently can read things that verify Trump is OK and doesn't lie. One Trump woman entering the library claimed she was educated. No she was indoctrinated.  

We are toast

 The lesson of the depression is the most important history lesson Kadizzle ever had. People will not act until they are cold and hungry. Les put it another way. People have to really have it bad before they will do anything. It is the classic fat guy routine. Eat, eat, eat until the heart attack, then diet. Maybe Kadizzle fits this MO.  Our society is on the verge of making things about as bad as it can get. The mind goes back and forth, but right now the mind things Trump may win. Elon Musk is putting on a full court press for Trump. This is totally insane, but the insane love insanity. Trump has bushels of crazy, and the Hoopleheads love crazy. 

When Trump gets in office normalcy will be torn to shreds. Rampant stupidity will be like fire. Trump will do one stupid thing that will trigger ten other stupid things. Nuclear war may be the end result. Trump's love for dictators may be the grand finally. Trump will sell our country to any dictator that wants it. The mess Trump will make is unimaginable. The economy will collapse. Kadizzle things it will take six months for Trump to plunge the country into total chaos. 

The question is can the country recover? We did recover from the depression, it took a war, it was not easy or fun, but we did. All the people starring at cell phones will be shocked into reality. 

The Day is starting

Two things are rampant in our country normal people don't experience. Mental illness and stupidity are far more prevalent than you ever thought. Kadizzle has spent a couple of days sitting by the library promoting Harris for president. The mentally ill love libraries. It is a place to get warm or cool, and you can use the bathroom. The same mental cases show up every day. Now you would not thing you would find an abundance of stupid people at a library, but low and behold they use the library. One must wonder what they read. How could you read much of anything and still be unaware Trump is a con man? Well, if you engage the people going into the library you soon find many of them are in the cult. Obviously they are fans of fiction, and conspiracy theories. 

Stupidity will be the demise of our country. The United States now ranks 28 in education. Here in Payson they are actually voting on if they should cut off funding to the schools. Imagine people that stupid. A major way to make sure your kid is an idiot is to home school them. That way your child will never be exposed to real thought or science. When you see a Hooplehead with children you can bet they are dumbing them down with home schooling. The ship is sinking and the fools are singing. 

A message from Gabe.

 Gabe and Kadizzle have been going back and forth on facetime. Gabe asked me to post this, so Kadizzle will. Kadizzle believes in free speech. That means you get to hear both sides of an issue. As a judge for 25 years in Hazen, the importance of hearing everything was clear. At one time Kadizzle called Gabe about his distortions of the run in with Senator Cramer. Kadizzle called Gabe to give him the truth. Gabe did not want the truth so he refused to let Kadizzle talk. Gabe asked for Kadizzle to include the following in this blog. So here it is. This is how free speech works. 

From Gabe

I am glad you are so confident in  your assumed superior intellect...someone should be....there really is nothing more I can say to counter it...I will immediately apologize to my 4 kids for being such a terrible influence in their lives and will make sure my friends and neighbors know what you have deemed me to be even though we have never met

I would invite you up to an Antler Outlaw event sometime so you share with my friends and neighbors your thoughts and perhaps even set some of them straight

We have a trail ride the end of Sept every year perhaps that is enough advanced notice for you to pencil in

I will do my best to awaken these deplorables up here but I simply do not have your wisdom or way with words to convince all of them so you will have a "snollygoster" or two as you call them to convert

I will let them know you are coming so they are sure to be there...that is if any of my friends are still talking to me after reading your enlightened analysis of my character which I could not blame them after being my friend for 40 or 50 years of not knowing the real me

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for intervening in the down hill spiral my sons and daughters lives have been with me as their father.. only an intellectual liberal such as yourself could have prevented their withering away as my children from this point forward. 

THAT IS THE END 

There is a point to this. Kadizzle has posted this as Gabe requested. Now it is Gabe's turn. Kadizzle asked Gabe to have a phone conversation. Kadizzle asks Gabe to allow the phone conversation to be recorded. A transcript of the phone conversation will be printed here. Will Gabe do this? Doubtful. If there was such a convesation Kadizzle would tell Gabe the truth about the stories he has been spreading. His falsehoods would be exposed. Lets see what happens. 

Own your words.

 What are your words worth? If you write something, and you will not put your name on it what does that say? It says you are ashamed of what you wrote. It says you don't have the courage to stand by your convictions. If you want to comment on this blog, put a name to your comment, otherwise your comment will be deleted.  

In a different World

 It is possible to be in an entirely different world. Today we live in Payson, Arizona. It is not Hazen, North Dakota. The people are different, the terrain is different, the climate is different. Of course many things are the same. Kadizzle just got back from the Alps, Zurich, and Amsterdam. Each was a different world. 

One recollection Kadizzle always liked was when his friend Duane said about an idiot we worked with " He lives in a small world". We live in a big world made up of many small worlds.  Each of us lives in a world of our own. Trump lives in a world of lies and deceit. Sadly he has a lot of people who live in that world with him. The election will be about how many people live in the real world, and if they want to live in a different world than Trump does. 

We need to examine what world we live in. Is it a world of fear, wonder, delusion, or a world of hope. So many who live in a world of fear and paranoid insanity have built a world for themselves that is miserable. Some people are drawn to misery. Some people want to believe he worst. Some people see he world as a scary place. 

Winky and Kadizzle spend a lot of times in the mountains and forest. Many people see the jungle or the forest as intimidating. It is not. If you don't experience another world you will not know it, you will not know your own world. Don't live in a small world. In a big world many things are possible. In Amsterdam it is possible to live very comfortably without a car. The world of North Dakota is not as bad as many people imagine the cold. Arizona is not the desert people imagine. To know a world you have to go into it. One thing Kadizzle has learned is nowhere is like the vacation adds portray. 

Mexico is interesting. Talk to a couple of people who have been there the perceptions and experiences are as different as night and day. Kadizzle has a friend who was robbed at gun point in Mexico. Another neighbor has a house there and loves it. The world you live in is the world you make. If we make a Trump world may god help us. 

Gabe is too much fun.

Gabe Thompson is a Hooplehead in North Dakota. Gabe has been making false accusations about old Kadizzle on facetime. Gabe has taken a couple instances and twisted them. Years ago Kadizzle had an encounter with Senator Cramer in North Dakota. Republicans have found it useful to lie about what took place. Gabe is one of those liars. Another person that also promoted those lies was Gary Morris. Gary alleged that Kadizzle was arrested twice in North Dakota, Gabe picked up that lie and ran with it. KMOG broadcast a retraction after Gary Morris made he lie on the radio. The encounter with Senator Cramer was about a young woman and her child born with severe medical problems. Cramer would not support health care for he woman. Gabe, and the Republicans never tell that part of the story. Gabe and Gary like to claim Cramer was assaulted. Cramer himself said this was not the case on Rob Port's radio program in North Dakota. 

Gary Morris is the local head of the Republican Party. Gary Morris had someone call Senator Cramer's office and claim they were  me. That fake call threatened Cramer. The Capitol Police came to my house and debunked that nonsense. More then likely they searched my phone records and realized it was an attempt by Gary Morris to smear me. Gabe picked up this nonsense and ran with it. 

In a phone call to Gabe, he refused to hear anything. Gabe simply did not want to admit he is a liar. Gabe talked over Kadizzle and made sure he would not be exposed to what actually happened. Gabe is one of those sorrowful little men who run when you confront them about their lying. In Payson we have three, Gary Morris, Michael Heather, and Steve Otto. Kadizzle has gone up to each one of them to speak about their lying. All three literally ran from the truth. Gabe is exactly he same. Gabe will make misleading statements, and lies on facetime, then he will not own up to the lies when he is confronted. This is a problem. This is how Trump operates and why the Republican rats love Trump. Gabe and he others admire the way Trump lies and try to imitate him. Anyone who wants to hear the entire story just call me. Don't be like Gabe. If you want to call me let me know in the comments and I will provide my phone number. A note another aspect of Gabe the coward is he will make comments on this blog and not put his name to him. You will not get a response if you do not take ownership of your comments. 

Trump wanted to launch missiles into Mexico, Mark Esper says

One sign vandal caught.

Kadizzle had the game camera set out last night with no luck. However, there is very good news. The Payson police caught a sign vandel. As has been reported the cult Republicans have been vandalising Democrat campaign signs. 

Scary, is what you find when you encounter the cult members. These people are so ignorant, ill informed, and easily conned by Trump it is frightening. Once you get involved in campaigning you find out how many brain dead people are walking around. When you find out what they believe your head spins. The scary part is the number of these zombies walking among us. You come to realize one part of the brain functions and others don't. 

Yesterday Kadizzle sat in front of the library with a Harris sign. Sitting there also were the Jehovah's Witnesses. It was a married couple. The husband seemed intelligent enough to see through the Trump lies, but he could not see the insanity of the religion he was promoting. His wife had been a flight attendant at one time. She said she knew pilots that were Jehovah's Witnesses. Now, that kind of scared Kadizzle. Kadizzle likes to fly with someone operating the plane who has a firm grip of reality. Who wants someone deep t mythology controlling the plane? That is the perfect example of a brain that can be taught to fly a commercial airliner, but falls for the nonsense the Jehovah's sell. That is the state of our current mess. People capable of walking and chewing gum cannot see through the con of Trump. Fox news can mold these idiots like wax. 

Learning to Canvass

Marty asked old Kadizzle to help him canvass for the Democrats. Hopping in the car we headed out. The idea is to find out who are Democrats, and get them to vote. Somehow we hit a nice little neighborhood with a pocket of Democrats, how refreshing. 

A couple of the normal people expressed their disgust with Trump and his lying machine. The interesting thing was that each person who confessed to being normal, did not know of he other normal people nearby. Each normal person thought they were alone. This is a major problem in Payson. Normal people live among the cult and do not realize how many normal people there are. The cult members are overestimated, and he normal people are underestimated. Of course the cult people make a lot of noise, wear their MAGA hats, and carry their guns. The cult people love to wave the flag. 

Of course we ran into the brain dead MAGA cult people. A good cult member does not want to discuss anything. The cult is like religion, you don't ask why, you just believe. A lot of cult people look normal, and it is shocking to find out they are in the cult. Don't ask the why they like he cult, it will not go well. 

The country is in peril, and the world is on the brink of disaster. Trump will put the icing on the disaster with his wild dreams of tax breaks for the rich. The typical cult person has no clue what Trump is about, the just like the fact he is obnoxious. 

Jungfraujoch - Top of Europe

Kadizze made this trip, but took a cable car up about 3/4 of the way. 

In One Day

 Old Kadizzle went from Amsterdam to Payson in one day. A long trip? Yes, yes, yes. The old body is worn out from walking on concrete, sitting on trains, planes, and just plain sitting. Feels good to be home, no schedule, no navigation. 

The trip was an education. Small towns are the ticket. Who needs masses of people. There is no good way to describe the reality of bicycles in Amsterdam. Every street is lined with parked bikes, and there are way more people on bikes than cars. A wonderful site is the moms taking the little ones to school on special bikes with a big box built in the middle. What is the result? No fat people. Here is an entire city of physically fit humans. Also the streets are not jammed with cars. The most wonderful thing is he lack of goofy cars, trucks, and Harley motorcycles. It is a civilized country. Public transportation is a dream, you don't need a car, and most people don't have one.

Cult Republicans love to misuse the word socialism. Kadizzle came across a chart showing the happiest countries in the world. The United States was ranked number 15. Every country that ranked higher was more socialist. Shove that up your ass Republicans. 

Europeans take pride in not wasting. Americans worship waste. 

Change subjects: One the plane back Kadizzle watched a short documentary on how eating meat will destroy the planet. More damage is done by meat production to the environment than any fossil fuels. The rain forest that produces our oxygen is being destroyed. 

Change subject:  The planet is overcrowded. One lasting impression of Europe is the crowding. People are packed into tiny apartments ad homes. There are just to damn many of us. One interesting fact Kadizzle learned long ago, when people prosper they have fewer children. We need fewer people, and a lot fewer stupid people, also known as Republicans. 

Sliced and diced humans

 Yesterday Kadizzle visited the Body World exhibit. On display were actual human bodies that had been plasticized. People donated their bodies for the exhibit. Humans cut apart in every way were on display. Three men played poker that were completely dissected. Two bodies stripped of skin so you could see the muscles were having sex. Every organ including the sex organ were cut open and displayed. One amazing thing was the blood circulation system, and the nerve system. It is amazing how we are wired and how tiny blood vessels can carry blood. The display would be very educational for students. Another example in the display was artificial implants. You could see knees and the hips of real humans with the implants exposed. If you ever want to see how you function check it out. The complexities of our design makes you question how we came about.

Science

 To entertain myself Kadizzle went to the science museum. It was very well done. A major part was oriented towards children, and they did a damn good job. Walked onto a barge made into a tourist ship. The ship took bikers on tour. The bike people would ride all day and meet the boat somewhere different each night. Perhaps Winky and Kadizzle will try it next year.

Tomorrow Kadizzle will head home. Need a rest from travel. Winky will be in Portugal at least another week. She is already worn out from hiking. 

If Trump is elected many people will leave the U.S. Since our kids are there we have to stay. Sad to see America fall behind. The greed of the Republicans has destroyed the country.

Made it back to Amsterdam

 Long all day train ride with speed up to 187 miles per hour, but still an hour late. Good pizza for supper. What to do today? Finally slept all night. May get all day tram pass.

Here Kadizzle sits

 6:30 A.M. waiting for a train to Frankfurt. It will be a long journey to Amsterdam. Home will be welcomed. Sleep is a problem. The body will not adjust. Europe is just to damned crowded. The American West cannot be beat. Had Kadizzle done this trip right he would have gone straight to the Alps. Live and learn. Fun meeting people. Cost of journey will bust the budget. Hotel prices strange. Will stay at same hotel in Amsterdam for half of what it cost last week. Hotel in Grendinwald, Alps was reasonably priced. Amazing how many Asians are visiting Alps. The train station here is huge. Shopping more abundant than most American malls. American cities seem like ghost towns in comparison. People everywhere here. Walking in Denver people are scarce. Better check on train.
