I am creating my own power---my main bank of 4 solar panels are producing and this power is being transmitted to and stored in my newly obtained gigantic gel battery! I've struggled working out the how of solar power with my patched together, on the cheap, Chinese system.... but adding a decent battery in line was the necessary, missing element....IT WORKS....it will take 3-4 days of charging by the system before the battery is capable of providing free-sun-stored power on demand...
The 5Th element in all this is the way i am---the way i am feeling about generating electrical power--generating your own power makes you actually feel powerful....seriously....it is no wonder to me that many corporations have actively blocked, or lobbied against solar power---producing your own power and food prevents we as individuals from being held as wage slaves...Think about it for just one moment....If we used our minds and our earnings on the technology and the methodology to set us free as workers --- zero debt, universal health care, housing self-sufficient in power and water, low cost electric/public transport/bicycles---then our societal demand cycle would be smaller and that demand would be for higher quality goods and services---this could mean we would work when we wanted or needed to--based on our demands and needs---not those of corporate ownership---not to just keep our heads above water economically or to make the corporate leadership fatter----as labor becomes more valuable due to scarcity, we would have to be paid at a higher level for our work, and work in a better environment, they would be competing for us---not the other way around----of course, type A personalities or other mental deficient's would still fall victim to the "you must buy this, you must, you must get ahead, you must have this syndrome" but those persons, destined from birth to be weird would be the only victims of what we all experience now...we are controlled, enslaved by the designed in leverage of being two paychecks away from disaster.
Regardless of where you live, rural or urban, if we were to live within our means, garden the majority of our own food, manufacture our own power, grow our own marijuana, work when we needed to or wanted to...what a life we could have...

--i apologize--it is just as I've aged i understand more of where i/we/me have fallen off the pathway...this is not a bitter thing, it is more of an AHA! moment--of what we could do to easily change our daily world..i was willingly stupid for all of my young years---I simply do not wish to spend my end years in awash in more of the same wage slave system. I am just trying to voice thoughts I have had for years....even tho so many people i know at work laugh at me and my "socialist" ways...
I have been experiencing this action figure jonesing--something that just came over me with no explanation...I currently have a Predator action figure in route and last night i ordered a Shaun of the Dead action figure!

Shaun of the Dead is one of my all time favorite movies--it's a movie i watch when i want to see something but nothing i can think of appeals to me--Shaun always appeals---I couldn't believe there was an action figure available---when i saw it in the window i just had to have it for the nerd cave...."need anything from the shop?" Researching action figures as a whole I found the Toy and Action Figure Museum--here's a link--it looks like fun...

Below is a link to the British "Independent" newspaper with a very interesting, very scary, article on the economic meltdown that is occurring in Dubai.

Followed by an article advising the best thing for the average American to is to screw off our credit card repayments and instead build up a reserve cash fund to see us through the tougher times ahead.
Aren't we stupid---look at what we do to public transport that we actually have that's working---
Someday-Someday we will smarten up----


I've been off work this week, i got a ton of stuff done but this time off allowed me to think and write more than i usually do and I've enjoyed it---above all else keep on being as self-sufficient as possible... enjoy yourself and those around you...
