I rarely wax evangelical, preferring to just point to the horses near water over there and say, “They at least have some chance.” However, for 2000 years, there’s been an available way on offer to find comfort, courage and protection … it’s just that humans turn every which way but that … and it’s by no means accidental.
Part of the push to prevent people finding the upwards path is to corrupt and suppress the message, any which way, burn down churches, jail anyone openly praying while encouraging the enemy cult to do just that in public spaces. No great surprise there, nor the fall of NYC.
The theme of this item is not so much those two paragraphs but more to suggest that as well as those is the overall strategy of noting, learning, shelving for next time. There’s a mental health aspect to this … the bstds obviously want us trapped in unrequited anger and frustration … eventually, it impedes effective action, the ability to strike when needed.
Two ways to put it is … don’t get mad, get even, plus keep our powder dry. A third way is behind the title of the old blog … to nourish obscurity and to bide one’s time until the moment arrives. And a fourth piece of advice is biblical … concerning keeping the flame alive and being vigilant.
A fifth is Ephesians 6:11 to 13. To be in warrior mode, not “beta woe-is-me” mode.
This item is for those with eyes to see … time is edging closer now.

The moment I saw this … I really like this chap’s series, not least because he’s a genuine sort himself … there’s another, on Concrete, coming up maybe tomorrow … yes, the moment I saw this, I knew it was going to be a personal journey back to 1989, a significant year for the leaning tower as you’ll see.
Being overdramatic for just a moment … there was an incident on the second stage of the loggia where I believe I may well have fallen to my death … some sort of Guardian again?
The tower was leaning, for reasons which will become apparent both in the Wiki article and the video and let’s start referring now to its angle in degrees and minutes, plus its stone construction and its peculiar design … it was leaning at over 5 degrees in 1990, the year after my visit, they knew then they’d need to halt the lean before it toppled … so 1993 to 1996 saw it come back to well below 4 degrees.
My journey
I’d been in Firenze, or Florence, in a piazza with that Spanish girl I’d met and was taking in Rome and Pisa before heading north to Scandinavia … found myself on the train to Pisa and at one point, looking out of the windows, we were surrounded by seemingly endless fields of sunflowers … then the station in Pisa.
Don’t know why but I thought it would be just a small town, with the tower easily signposted … it wasn’t in the least, nor was there much around to indicate the way. Following the crowd did not work as there was no crowd … just everyone going about his or her business. Uh huh.
Found the tower eventually and again was stunned by how few people there were about. Yes, there were certainly tourists with their standard photo taking, pretending to hold the tower up from a distance and yes, it was 50 metres or so, so not small … but all the same, the whole thing across the grass seemed unprepossessing for want of a better word.
Never mind, headed for the small door at the base, where the mosaic surround was and I was in, climbing the narrow, slippery stone stairs.
The incident
There was a door which suddenly opened, bright light pouring through, there were maybe three others, total, with us, who decided to step out.
Gulp. The instant my feet were on the stones, I knew there was trouble. Stunned that we were actually allowed out there, not far from the downside’s most “down” point, I could not see below, back pressed against the wall of building stones but I knew that one quite likely slip of the feet on those slippery stones and there would be no way to stop sliding … the pillars were too far apart to help.
I was fairly certain that this was the second stage of the loggia and that’s borne out in the picture with that diminutive human framed in the doorway … could only think that one slip and I was gone … no guard rail nor raised foothold, quite the opposite … it was slightly convex and dropped away near the outer edge … I was sure death was a misstep away, so to speak, and had my hands flat against the wall behind.
Only thought was keep one’s head, slowly ease back through the door, just as the other two or three were doing.
Made it downstairs, thought never again, thanks … and in fact, that was true … never again, both with my own future doings, plus they apparently closed the tower to the public soon after … which made me think about Stonehenge … yes, I’ve been through it a few times, touching the stones, have kissed the Blarney Stone in Cork or wherever, saw Checkpoint Charlie in Berlin and obvious the Wall … and so on.

4. Yes but it’s not just Labour, is it?
The entire uniparty policy has been this way … I can trace it from 1971 but of course, it goes way back to the late 1800s.
Long time readers know about the keyposts which we can still access on Groupthink, plus Green’s Strong Group of Friends plus various nourobscur blogs I had with similar articles. Plus The Venetians, plus The Missing Children, plus 12 Atonalism. Yes … replace comprehensive learning with ideological narrative and there it is. “Your sons and your daughters are beyond your control”, as Zimmerman sang, also add The Who.
How did I escape the clutches of the Narrative? Well I did not completely … student radical days, days of loss but I’m sure there was a Guardian of some sort, all the same. Eventually one matures and if one’s formal education had been pretty trad, pretty good … then that helps.
The majority? There are ways.

In NYC, it was obvious when I saw an interview with a girl who’d just voted early for the creep and was asked if socialism was the way to go then. “Not necessarily,” she replied. Soviet expats were also interviewed and almost all asked why a society would wish it upon themselves.
Part of the answer is in n4 above.

a) Cows are collapsing, say farmers and suspect statutory feed. Following dissatisfaction among cows with new feed, the national association demands clarification.
