Word has just been posted on the Free Keene Forum that the final 4:20 cannabis celebration for 2009 will be from 3p-5p this Saturday 11/14 at Keene’s Central Square. It’s my understanding that the event originators wanted to go out with a bang rather than have attendance dwindle down as the temperatures drop. I imagine you’ll see the celebrations restart sometime in 2010, maybe around 4/20? Bring your own bud and see you there!

Last night’s “battle” with the physicians assistant was interesting, to say the very least. I’m still shaking my head in astonishment. First off, the appointment I was supposed to have with the opthamologist was supposed to occur on Monday or Tuesday of last. It finally happened on Thursday, when the guards announced “there is someone who wants to talk with you” then proceeded to play games with me as to if they would tell me where I was actually going or not. Okay I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt on those items. David Seigal, the physician’s assistant, was downright rude and the double speak was amazing. “Well we live in a very litigious society” was his defense, to his previously offensive comments and lack of desire to rectify the issues of why I can’t walk without excruciating pain. It’s an amazingly sick soul someone has when they tell you that you are “refusing” an MRI after I finally got to the point where I can’t take the abuse and harm they intend. How can it possibly be anything else? I was very direct when I asked “why are you ignoring my condition?”… he replied “what do you want me to do?” as if I’m qualified to know. The conversation continued and I told him to imagine I’m a human being without this orange jump suit on for an instant, that I’m not some horrible person who has harmed anyone to which he went totally off on some tangent about how he didn’t want to have a political debate… who mentioned politics? What??? Hello??? You are “the DOCTOR!” I am a person, a human, suffering in pain. If I ever questioned the Hypocratic oath, it was last night. He’s a statist thug, embezzling and living like many in his legion. I have met the enemy and he’s the state, as a matter of fact, he’s the Doctor for “the state.” Yippe, I got some more Motrin to tear up my guts and how on earth am I going to discover what is wrong with me? Now, he’s scheduling yet another eye appointment. In the meantime I get the nurse with a bedside manner of a grizzly to hand me Motrin. I think they all need to see psychotherapists. I won’t describe here just how nasty and degrading he became when I told him that I’d signed release papers for my wonderful chiropractor, and I also mentioned that my wife will be bringing me papers for me to authorize my friend, a Harvard Doctor, who has volunteered to examine my records as well. That is when I should have known but naive as I am, I did simply expect him not to feel so threatened by my mentioning I was getting a second opinion. hen the door shuts behind you in here, as well as if you show up for court here and even dare question the false authority the illegitimacy of the state’s power becomes crystal clear. When I departed from our “conversation” I only said “God Bless You” because I sure wasn’t capable of it at that time. Today I received a card from Tarrin from the LCL Report. I must let you all know that though I tried, I could not see any of you who were also kidnapped, while they caged 13 of you in here. Thanks for the update Tarrin. Knowing that the message is growing is more strength than you know. Info getting in here is an awful task. To see Yadra and Evan in shackles and chains by the dirty hands of the real enemy was amazing on many emotional levels. Some sadness, some joy. (more…)

Ma’am Behind The Curtain
The violent ones “allowed” Aubern to “represent” my person in their devilish system. I’m not sure how I feel about that. I signed an apology, as much as I could stand to, to just get me into a position where I can get both remedy for my pain and limited physical abilities and into a position where I can contribute to my family and the world in a way that thugs may not like, by providing for them without begging permission from them.… which sadly and shamefully I have to do so I can do something better for the world. I sure don’t want to rot in here at a cost of nearly $15,000.00 to the tax-payers, most of whom agree that it is against their will, and they don’t approve, never mind the cost of the medical bills, which I sure as heck am not responsible for, and I’m sure the tax-payers aren’t responsible as well. Just who is responsible? I think the man who knows he is, knows. He needs no introduction here, surely.
It is so nice to hear, from all the mail, that many more people are moving here. Lots of people seem to say that Burke’s days are numbered in that seat. Interesting huh? (more…)

Don’t Ask
Today is visitation day! I get to see the love of my life! Sweet sadness is the theme.
Much to nobody’s surprise this mail is read by the Gestapo, ah, sorry, I mean government workers. Yes folks, even after sealing it up and placing some security marks on it, as well as recording which guard took which letter and the date being put on the outside of the envelope, they read the mail. Yes folks, some government workers can read, however, when you ask a question, don’t you generally want an answer? Perhaps not if you are asking rhetorically but… not once have I responded to “Mr. Hoffman.” When asked by the guard named Coulme (or Colon) what the reason was and explaining after I asked if he seriously wanted to know why I don’t choose to have a last name rather than my family name he replied in true government fashion by saying rapidly “I don’t want to hear any of that nonsense,” then tried to insult me. It’s wise to take what he says with a grain of salt… well if you seriously want to know then be patient enough and have a brain enough to LISTEN! (more…)
