Virtual Jawing

I have not been out since Monday last. Why, you might ask. Lake Titicaca has bigger waves. I guess with all the slack time, the boyz have had a chance to test their jaw power online. Check the comments from the last post; it reads like a jaw session with the Penguin on top. Keep it up boyz - we need the practice. The masses are getting nervous, just like lemmings before they make the leap. Rumors of swell, long drives to find waves, and smoking surf wax. This is a time when the mind begins to regurgitate all the surf of the past - reliving speed runs, off-the-lip whacks, cut backs, tube rides, DYSM. There's probably a run on surf vids, the beer tab is up, and finger nails are chewed to the bone. Of course the swell predictors have a line on the next swell, and so the masses are planning accordingly. Let's see - the swell should be here July 2 at 5:45 pm. The east wind will be blowing, so if I crack it on July 3rd, I should get some waves with only 50 guys out - score! Dude, seriously - I did spy some storm forecasts for the southern hemisphere and it looks like we might get something during the first week of July.
As the Beltway turns - don't believe one word. Think for yourself, research, and makeup your own mind. The power mongers are spending tons of money to turn off your mind and turn you into a zombie. A freedom loving, red, white and blue zombie. Watch out for the words that hit below the belt - children, seniors, troops. Start by reading the Constitution. It's short and sweet. While you're at it, check the 9th Amendment. It hints at rights that may not be generally recognized, and suggests that the general clamp down on our rights is not what the founders were writing into the commander-in-chief job description. The 9th simply reads; "The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage other retained by the people." Think about it - other rights retained by the people like questioning authority, or the right not to be herded by religious cowboys. The right to be free from Corpordinatio - the right not to have your information bought and sold like stock. The right to opt out of consumer marketing.
Insight into the founders -
Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak; and that it is doing God's service when it is violating all his laws. -John Adams, 2nd US president (1735-1826)
If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy. -James Madison, fourth US president (1751-1836)
Be civil to all, sociable to many, familiar with few, friend to one, enemy to none. -Benjamin Franklin, statesman, author, and inventor (1706-1790)
I can't see these guys being stoked on the turn of events that have unfolded over the last six years.
