There's a nor'easter moving along the east coast today. Freezing rain ... but we must be grateful for little favors ... it's not snowing here in the city.

As we watch increasing earthquake activity along the US west coast into Central and South America, we know it's a matter of time. There will be no rescue by aliens or gods. It will be the final seconds of the hologram before it fades to black as everything will be affected including the global economy which will crash. My cousin Richard, who lives in northern California and therefore follows earthquake activity, feels the greatest danger on the North American continent is the New Madrid Fault Zone. At the end of the day it's all going to come apart.
Lies ... lies .. and more lies ... Torture has been going on since the beginning of warfare in every civilization. So why is this CIA report coming out now? What is the government afraid of?

Most remember having seen such a spark and then they get it. It is electromagnetic energy therefore it is blue/white.
