The Nuremberg Garden Club
-- RZ Dylan
This is only a story, and it is not meant to suggest anything in the real world. This is an imaginary story about how imaginary characters dealt with the wicked few who ruled their world... or so they thought. Neither this story nor this writer is advocating anything at all, and any references to what may seem to be real historical events are only… Continue

The Strange Family with Small Lanterns
There was a time when strangers were welcome here
Music would play, they tell me the days were sweet and clear
It was a sweeter tune and there was so much room that people…

The Rumkowski Rabbits
Nothing heavy here. Just a sweet little parable about bunnies... and left-gatekeeper websites.
There was once a warren of rabbits. Most of them were content with being rabbits. For one thing, they had no choice. Furthermore, they realized they had certain talents that enabled them to thrive as rabbits. This they were told by their own spirit long ago:

Fork This. We have other things to do.
I have a dream. It goes back to the bad old days in the USA during the Vietnam “war” and the naïve children that we were in our “days of rage.” We were aware that we had been raised on a steady diet of white bread and crappola, and weren’t very happy about it. We had cute little demonstrations and waved signs and stuff. We got whacked on the head with sticks. We all got sucked into the war in Vietnam, one way or another. Except the Black… Continue

Goering Mocks Us.
He rises from the depths of Hell and mocks us… all US Citizens who are now worried about swine flu, or our jobs, or crabgrass, or “healthcare.” Herman Goering: the Nazi war criminal who cheated the hangman in 1945 considered the Nuremberg trials a show and a farce. Victors’ “justice,” he said, "The victor will always be the judge, and the vanquished the accused". The only “crime” committed by the Nazis was losing the war. Forget the crocodile… Continue

The trick with the Interent
In life, figuring out who has aspergers is easy, they are rules-based, and will stab you in the back. The trick is getting them out of government so that their corporations can be reorganized with them on the outside.

Human Sacrifice: The Degeneration of a Ritual
The vatican (sic) and the catholic church (sic) ignore scientific research that shows
that if latex condoms are used properly they can prevent the transmission of HIV
and other diseases. They make prehistoric statements such as: “Morality is the
only prevention for AIDS...” and “Anyone who ignores the teachings of the
catholic church (sic) and contracts AIDS has only himself to blame.”... Certain
religious and spiritual practices in… Continue
