suddenly this song started playing in my head

[click image that reminds me of Leonard]

I'm typing in a bunch of nothing just to make sure this thing is back to functioning at its old speed. The switch-out in commenting systems really shook things up around here, and I spent the greatest part of the last day and night fixing the mangled template, but couldn't get the line spacing thing to work out again. It was as though it had been killed. The code was right there all along, but ceased functioning for some reason known only to the gods of chaos, KAOS and cybernetics. It was the piece of code I had suspected was the important bit all along, but stopped believing in that when it wouldn't work anymore. A knight in an unpronounceable town in Russia fixed it for me. I wonder if he knows any wealthy socialist gentlemen... maybe his father needs a wife? :-P

If you watch this video you might find out how come I grew up loving master spies so much.

i so need a drink, fattening or not

I may have found a way to cheat the template into giving me back something akin to what I had before, but I so very seriously am not finding the hitch in that template. I have heartburn. I want to cry, but I'm too much like fizzies in a vat of glue. So maybe I can have one more moondance tonight.

Sometime the next morning....
As an aside, do you realize that truth only became allowed as a defense against libel in 1735? One John Peter Zenger was jailed for libel against the Mayor of New York City, William Cosby, but acquitted and freed because his "libel" was the truth. I find this astonishing. 1735 was five minutes ago... and maybe five minutes from now.

I put in this aside filled with fascinating information in the blockquote format so that I can test to see if we've fixed my template well enough for me to get over myself and go back to my little thing here, bruised, but clunking along.

comments are working, and i'm almost dead

_____________________________________________________
UPDATE THE NEXT MORNING: They made good on the blogscramble -- saved me from untold hours trying to revive and fix the broken code, put their best guy on it, and I am happy. I think they might end up with a nice stable and smoothly functioning comment system... and I hope they have changed their minds about some of their goals to turn it into a social networking thing, but what do I know? Perhaps they will end up with the best thing on the net someday soon.
_____________________________________________________

As you may or may not be able to notice, the agony of getting the JS-Kit guys to yank their heavily misfiring beta commenting system off my blog for me -- since there was literally NO way for me to do it -- has ruined some special formatting code done for me years ago by a friend who is no longer with us. I don't know if I can figure out how to rectify that, and this whole process has brought up so many memories of so much travail and almost everything I hate about this world that I truly feel as though I have been beaten to within an inch of my life.

I'm going to try to pull myself together and put on my ultra-powerful drugstore cheaters, the ones I had to get contact lenses in order to find, and spend quantum hours looking for what might put the situation right in my blog template.

So if I don't seem anything like my usual self for a day or two or week, and if you click in to find the place looking extremely strange, for however long, please, bear with me.

I know I left my Zen around here somewhere. Maybe the drugstore cheaters will help me with that.

No, really, it's around here somewhere because I distinctly recall swearing off swearing until I turn back into a person who even realizes she's swearing when she swears, a person who swears when she intends to swear. I don't know when I became one of those people who can't hear her own foul mouth, but it seems I did. I just instated this clean language thing a couple days ago, and almost immediately found a comment, where I'd been certain of 100% clean usage, with a big blaring "fucking" right in the middle of it, big as heck. So the problem is not trivial. Luckily, I had the edit function, and could rip that sucker out the moment I realized it was there, but, well, it had taken a few hours to realize it was there! So it is the Zen made me swear off swearing until I only swear intentionally, and this is how I'm certain it's around.

Believe me, I have to find it. My laser brain has turned into a firefly brain behind this.

No kidding. And do please see the update on my commenting policy.

changed comment systems, and left my blog kittywompus

... but in addition to losing all the comments, it messed up my template pretty badly. I don't know if they're going to fix that, or just leave me with a migraine.

You may comment at whim now, again, and maybe what you say will stick.

I've updated the commenting policy thing for this turn of events.

i'm not happy with the president at all, at all

[click image]

I know I shoulda been on this a couple days ago, but the comment thing was filling me with so much rage I couldn't look at the rest of the world, or care. That's the thing about wrath. You have to let it flow out somehow so your real mind can still deal with the real. Just sometimes there's too much for those still working through their stupid lifetime habit energy.

how about a meta-currency?

[click image]

I love these guys. They think outside the box. They think in terms of global benefit, enlightened self-interest. I don't know how it is at home because I can never find sources I trust, and anything that emerges as fact can be interpreted as due to the good as easily as due to the evil, more easily in lots of cases, but on the world stage, yeesh, I love them.

I'm not hot on their going along with the globalization thing, which I feel is mostly about wanting to be accepted into the rest of world capitalism, not isolated, but it seems to me they really are trying to make the best of a bad scene... more on the peace and prosperity for all thing than most of their counterparts in the rest of the world... I mean in more ways than mere rhetoric, that is.

[The comments nightmare continues, but I have assurances that it will be ironed out with all possible speed. Problem is: you can't ever tell what they MEAN by that.]

this beta new wave haloscan and 99 are pau

[click image]

I can't take it anymore.

I'll put Blogger commenting on once I figure out how get this misfiring system off my blog.

[There isn't anything on the my template anymore! So they must be coming in through Blogger itself...? So I've emailed everyone and bloody hell will break loose if this doesn't get handled soon.]

[Update: They handled it with reasonable speed, and made amends for the chaos... even though, well, you know they should just do as I say and they'd never have another problem, but, pfeh, kids....]

komment kaos strikes again

[click image]

Now people's comments are sometimes counted and sometimes not, and sometimes show up and sometimes don't. Reloading the page produces all kinds of different results. I am heavily considering turning off comments altogether again, until I can figure out something that is less crazy-making, not so infinitely demoralizing. If I do that, I will give an email where you can comment until I get this straightened out.

another attempt at watching tv on neufneuf

[click image]

____________________________________________________________

Update: Substantive part of interview over, and now just linked behind her picture. When/if I can find a video or audio link or mp3 of it, I will link you to that.
____________________________________________________________

I have no clue if it will work, but at 11am Pacific Time, we're supposed to be able to see a live interview with Susan Lindauer about 9/11 and other interesting subjects on Republic Media TV.... I guess we're gonna see.
[It worked great.]

____________________________________________________________

3pm -- Okay, this is long, but he said they'd be reairing this directly, so if you're just showing up, you should be seeing Susan Lindauer testifying about foreknowledge of 9/11 and no WMD in Iraq and other positively outrageous bits of intelligence that absolutely never reached the American public. So you want to just sit there and watch. If it's archived, I will absolutely link it for you. She's on for about two hours, and then there's a long call in section that is pretty much not on topic you can miss.

So anyway there's someone yammering about Ron Paul at this very moment, but I think we can expect the Lindauer interview to come back on pretty soon.

If not, I'll rip out the player until we can get the real thing again.

____________________________________________________________

3:05pm -- It is now reairing. It starts with a bunch of bullshit technical problems, but be patient, she ends up getting on the air with him and it will knock your socks off.

____________________________________________________________

Here's Michael Collins' report on the matter.

____________________________________________________________

Bottom line, for those of you who miss this, she says the Arabs really hijacked the planes per plan on 9/11, and she, a longtime intelligence asset of ours, warned the administration darn explicitly about it in advance. And she says the Israelis just helped make it the glorious success that it turned out to be. She says the administration won't let us hear this because Israel is supposed to be our great friend and ally.

She says also that McVeigh and/or Nichols met with Arab terrorists in the Phillipines to plan the Oklahoma City bombing.

She first was gagged but left out on bail, but then was arrested and put in a military prison pending determination of her competency to stand trial, but the whole case was dropped just before Obama took office.

I'm interested in exploring with you guys about the possible veracity of this stuff. We know we already are very willing to believe this stuff, and so that means the government does also. This could be an elaborately planned limited hangout and it could be the whole truth. So I really hope everybody gets a chance to listen carefully to her, and will do everything I can to make sure you are able to if you are so inclined.

Personally, I don't believe any Arabs had anything to do with Oklahoma City, or, at least not wittingly, to do with 9/11. I can see very clearly how Larry Silverstein and the maniac Zionists out there would have had the power and interest -- the motives, means and opportunities -- to pull off 9/11, though. So I'm wondering if you think this could be a limited hangout to help get everybody back on board against the Arabs... even if it strengthens our suspicions about Israeli involvement... something it will take a metaphoric nuke to get any mainstream help with... but not at all on the Arab part.

And who is interested in helping run down some of the names she mentions? Anyone?

____________________________________________________________

For instance, why would this Richard Fuisz, her supposed CIA handler, insist that she call Ashcroft's office to get this alert out? Why have someone who has to prove she's on the up and up call when he could call and there would be no question? Is this about that separation of agencies bit? Is that weird?

[Seems that at one time Fuisz was a NOC -- which NOC status would stop him calling the DoJ -- but certainly by the time he's Lindauer's handler he can't still be undercover, can he? And if so, can he still be if she's talking about him now? And as long as his cover is blown, where's his corroboration for this?]

____________________________________________________________

Trying to take her opinions and intelligence bits at face value, I'm still certain that there had to be government, or at least military, involvement, because one of the planes disappeared altogether and another one, 93, was shot down. A hijacked airliner absolutely did not hit the Pentagon. It was a fucking missile, maybe in drag as a small plane, but it absolutely was not a 757. So, we can look to the double-citizenship, and rabid Zionist, high ranking officials in the Pentagon and in Congress and in business and in the military, but our government/military/power-brokers had to be involved.

____________________________________________________________

Why was she left out in circulation until September 2005 if they were so determined to shut her up about their foreknowledge of 9/11 and the Israeli involvement? Did they trust that she couldn't get the information out until she got a court date, and when they couldn't put her off anymore decide to arrest her for purposes of "determining her competence for trial"? And then drag that out against all reason and numerous laws until 15 January 2009? This could be about the size of it, but, so, well, what's preventing her from getting in front of a congressional panel right now?

...instead of, or in addition to, this glitch-filled bit of independent media?

____________________________________________________________

Big Dan's OKC link that won't work in the comments section... konsarn kommenting kaos.

____________________________________________________________

And, Prav... uh, I mean, the AP, had this to say about her recent release... totally slimed her... reason to believe her more? Or what?

____________________________________________________________

Update: 26 January: Here's a snippet related to the missile that hit the Pentagon that Plunger mentioned at Big Dan's, which I think helps cast some light on this story:
2001-09-11 Stanley Hall Raytheon Director of Electronic warfare program management. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 77, the one that supposedly hit the Pentagon but did not.

2001-09-11 Peter Gay Raytheon VP of Electronic Systems on special assignment at the El Segundo, CA division office where the Global Hawk UAV remote control system is made. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.

2001-09-11 Kenneth Waldie Raytheon Senior Quality Control for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.

2001-09-11 David Kovalcin Raytheon Senior Mechanical Engineer for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that supposedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.

2001-09-11 Herbert Homer Raytheon Corporate Executive working with the Department of Defense. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on United airlines Flight 175, the one that supposedly hit the South World Trade Tower II.

...

Many were surprised when they learned that Raytheon executives and experts perished (or were disappeared) on 9-11 but we were not for one reason. We received a tip that an A-3 Skywarrior had been outfitted to operate as an UAV by Raytheon and it may well have been the plane used to attack the Pentagon. That hole through the Pentagon is a unique signature and not one made by an airplane. That 16 foot tunnel through three rings of the Pentagon is only made by a directional blast weapon. Rumsfeld has even slipped up and mentioned the missile that hit the Pentagon.

Some have seen the Pentagon parking lot camera video and the white trail of smoke. Jets do now leave white trails of smoke at sea level, but Thiokol powered AGMs do, at all attitudes.

The Boeing 757 commercial airliner is not equipped for mounting or launching of an AGM, but the A-3 Skywarrior is and that is exactly one of the reasons the planes are still in use.

I'm not happy with the wording in the first part about the Raytheon guys, but this is the gist.

____________________________________________________________

Oh, crap, you know what? The damn wording tripped me up and got me backasswards about the A-3 and the AGM bit again. This has happened to me a couple times in the great debates about what hit the Pentagon.

A GODDAM MISSILE HIT THE PENTAGON!

I have allowed as how the missile might have been in drag, made to look more like a plane, but that's as far as she goes.

I was in front of the tv when they showed the first shots. It was a missile. No airplane, and outright no way the hole was made by an airplane. Immediately apparent. Plus, I have researched this long and hard. So I'm all worked up again because there was no mention of this from Lindauer, just insisting that Arabs hijacked the four planes and the Israelis helped make it more spectacular, and this missile into the Pentagon bears on her story in that it tends to make it less credible, and here I go getting upside down on the A-3/AGM thing again. Heavy sigh. Oh. Well.

I'm just going to give that entire blockquote again, only this time with me rewording it for clarity and correcting typos, and see if we like the picture that emerges just a little better:

2001-09-11 -- Stanley Hall, Raytheon Director of Electronic Warfare Program Management. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon with an air to ground missile [AGM], where the official story claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 77, the one that allegedly hit the Pentagon but did not.

2001-09-11 -- Peter Gay, Raytheon VP of Electronic Systems on special assignment at the El Segundo, CA division office where the Global Hawk UAV [unmanned aerial vehicle] remote control system is made. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon with an AGM, where the official story claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that allegedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.

2001-09-11 -- Kenneth Waldie, Raytheon Senior Quality Control for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon with an AGM, where the official story claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that allegedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.

2001-09-11 -- David Kovalcin, Raytheon Senior Mechanical Engineer for Electronic Systems. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon with an AGM, where the official story claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on American airlines Flight 11, the one that allegedly hit the North World Trade Tower I.

2001-09-11 -- Herbert Homer, Raytheon Corporate Executive working with the Department of Defense. Raytheon did the retrofit of the A-3 that hit the Pentagon with an AGM, where Bush claimed Flight 77 hit it. Disappeared on United airlines Flight 175, the one that allegedly hit the South World Trade Tower II.

...

Many were surprised when they learned that Raytheon executives and experts perished (or were disappeared) on 9-11 but we were not for one reason. We received a tip that an A-3 Skywarrior had been outfitted to operate as an UAV by Raytheon and it may well have been the plane used to attack the Pentagon. That hole through the Pentagon is a unique signature and not one made by an airplane. That 16 foot tunnel through three rings of the Pentagon is only made by a directional blast weapon. Rumsfeld has even slipped up and mentioned the missile that hit the Pentagon.

Some have seen the Pentagon parking lot camera video and the white trail of smoke. Jets do not leave white trails of smoke at sea level, but Thiokol powered AGMs do, at all altitudes.

The Boeing 757 commercial airliner is not equipped for mounting or launching an AGM, but the A-3 Skywarrior is and that is exactly one of the reasons the planes are still in use.

You can see from the second part of the snippet what "the A-3 that hit the Pentagon" part in the first meant to say, did say, but not in lingo laypersons quibbling over what kind of projectile actually hit the building could readily understand. So, we're all clear, again, now, right?

And so now, it still could be she is right about Arabs hijacking the four planes and the Israelis took out the plane bound for the Pentagon, but, well, I doubt it. With so much work for a controlled demolition of the WTC and so much work for such a precise strike on the Pentagon, why leave it to a bunch of Arabs to maybe mess up your plans somehow?

komment kaos is so bad i can't express it fully enough


[click image]

Today, comments are disappearing into the mists of time, and who knows if we will ever see them again?

-----------------------------------
We are sorry you are experiencing the issue.

Please let us assure you that no comments are lost.
As of 4 PM PST all services are functioning properly, so no perceived
comments losses should occur after this time.

Between 11 AM PST and 4 PM PST we were experiencing a new release
issue which caused delayed propagation of information between nodes in
our cluster serving the comments data. Our engineers found the origin
of the issue and resolved it. All posted comments should appear
correctly now.

Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience.

Feel free to contact us should you need any kind of assistance, we
will be glad to help you.

Don't know about you but I don't want to miss the ones I haven't had a chance to perceive either, and it's still not reading my cookies. I wish a thousand times they'd just put this whole thing back the way it was before they started all this "upgrading" and call it a day. Leave people the option to use the old HaloScan anyway.... ESPECIALLY ME!

26 December 2008

THE CRISIS MAY HAVE PASSED, PLEASE CHECK THOUGH



I NEED YOU TO EMAIL ME!

I need to know if you can read the comments at all. Evidently, some browsers are not letting you read comments on this consarn new-fangled HaloScan, and some aren't letting you make comments, even though you can read the rest of them, and I'm going postal. I'm pitching deep purple polka dotted hissies all over my front room and calling and screaming at techno geeks and peeing all over my rug, I'm so pissed off. Even if yer a lurker! Just try to make a comment as "lurker [+ your mother's initials]" and see if your comment stays where you put it. It might seem to post but then when you refresh the window it's gone. It might leave out the screen name you chose, but stay posted. It might not let you do diddly.

Please, I'm begging you. I will never divulge your email address. I will personally kill anyone who ever spams you. This shit is driving me crazier than I was to start out with and I gotta have the ammo to shoot these KAOS agents right smack dab in the middle of their third eyes with.

Please. Just try to comment and then a short email with a short description of problem or no problem, which browser you used, and then I can shoot the KAOS Agents with it.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE... AND THANK YOU!

UPDATE: Messages dribbling in from across the browser spectrum and they're all telling me their comments disappear after posting them. Blood is dripping from my eyes and ears. But, please, if you haven't tried commenting yet, please still do. The comment probably will seem to post and then when you refresh the window or close it and come back, it will be gone. Bluebear2 and Big Dan seem to be the only ones so far having any luck saying things here today... and I don't know what's different about them from the others....

GODDAMMITTALLTOHELLANDBACK!

UPDATE: The crisis seems to have passed, but I'm still unsure everyone is getting through, so, please, give it a test run and if your comment is disappearing, please, please let me know. Thank you. Thank you. I'm all mellow now because I'm hopped up on downers or my emotions blasted all the plaque from my nerves or because I just got on the scale and I have lost ten pounds this month. Pick. xoxoxox

k.a.o.s. has control of haloscan

[click image]

Okay. The reason you have been getting a bajillion email notifications about comments on HaloScan blogs is because you were giving them your email. They suddenly decided that providing this bit of information amounted to the desire to be subscribed to the comments on any given thread. I had three full grown cows on them about this and so they have decided to stop that and give you a box to indicate if you want notification of further action on a thread.

I haven't seen anyone's email address go public, but Hilly says it happened to her comments last night and this morning. I think whatever that was has been fixed.

I still have not gotten word about whether or not URLs pasted into a comments will be automatically converted to hyperlinks again or not, and that does not seem to be working.

The new smileys are of inferior quality and insufficient range... especially given our extreme aggravation here.

This new gig is not reading HaloScan cookies either. If you have an account with them, it reads your screen name and the rest of the fields are blank, needing to be filled in every single time you visit a thread and that is just so irritating I could scream.

My admin page is a damn wreck.

This is but ONE example of the perfidies we here at C.O.N.T.R.O.L. work to save you from, but those world domination freak K.A.O.S. agents just never die.

This whole blistering migraine is causing me to begin rethinking everything here. I'm trying manfully not to go postal and turn off comments, but it's sapping all my strength. This "social networking" craze is getting on my nerves, and these bozos seem to think we'll be thrilled to turn our blogs into portals of a vast social network. I don't think so.

I don't think so at all.
