The Wylde Side

I don’t know why people circulate these things since some of them are older than my wife. However, I will do a show next week on the top circulated Urban Legends and debunk every last one. Maybe if it’s shiny and sparkles in the sun, people will listen and stop forwarding this crap… PS This One? DEBUNKED.

A friend stopped at a pay-at-the-pump gas station to get gas. Once she filled her gas tank and after paying at the pump and starting to leave, the voice of the attendant inside came over the speaker.. He told her that something happened with her card and that she needed to come inside to pay. The lady was confused because the transaction showed complete and approved. She relayed that to him and was getting ready to leave but the attendant, once again, urged her to come in to pay or there’d be trouble. She proceeded to go inside and started arguing with the attendant about his threat. He told her to calm down and listen carefully:

He said that while she was pumping gas, a guy slipped into the back seat of her car on the other side and the attendant had already called the police.

So way back when, more women fit the description than NOW. How many slobs you suppose existed in the 1600 to 1700’s? Today, we have hoarders, which means now we have dual meanings if we keep the bastardized one. Which means, women who are hoarders fall under this term.

Personally, I don’t use it. Because if women are, men are as well.

Our mortal enemy, Chris Bennett, chief editor makes a lot of points in this article, but most are fear laced.

The fear that food availability will be outrun by population growth. The fear that failure to embrace GMO Sciences will stagnate the production of food.

Or maybe, more like propaganda points. “If you don’t do ‘A’, then ‘B’ will happen and then we’re all dead.”

Page offered four guideposts to feed the masses by 2050.

1. Free trade is vital and makes food more affordable.

2. Markets work better than mandates for food distribution. “I believe biofuels have a role to play, but we need policies to be more responsive to supply and demand.”

3. Technology is key.

4. Food production is not a given. “We won’t have a food-secure world if we compound the inherent risks with poor policy.”

The future is now. Juma’s words are worthy of repetition: “We cannot afford to be seduced by the dim light of technological stagnation.”

If there’s a problem here, it’s that companies like Monsanto created hunger in the first place by putting limits on who can have seeds and who can’t, and, what exactly the people who have the seeds may do with them.

Think about it in grand view. No Monsanto, less starving people. Any human should have carte blanche to go out, plant a garden, harvest it and take some the seeds to replant next season. According to Monsanto, this is not allowable.

That’s where hunger is created. By companies that create an entire business model on controlling who can have food.

Who can hunt.

Who can have livestock.

In 100 years we’ve gone from people who could fall back on homesteading when the great depression struck to people who riot and loot if food is not available. We didn’t wander here inadvertently, we were steered here by greedy rich boys and companies previously too large to beat.

Only one thing can be said in response, and must be said with proper color. “Bite us. We’re taking our damn food back. Whether you like it or not.”

thinksquad:

Monsanto, a biotechnology farming development company, has hired the private security firm Academi, formerly known as Blackwater, to perform security work and gather intelligence amid growing public opposition to genetically modified foods, or GMOs, according to documents obtained by The Nation.

This just poops on my Heirlooms. Goddammit Monsanto, just f%$#ing die already. Get in the coffin and DIE.

If you are tired of diet soda with Aspartame, want to use Stevia, and think Diet Soda tastes like Aluminum anyway. OR you want to have soda consistently made with Sugar and not HFCS, this is the way to go.
