Korean War Veteran John Ramsey of Clover, S.C., Faces Jail Time for Junk in His Yard {AOL Real Estate}

Sep 25th 2012 8:45AM When someone buys property, pays house tax, personal property tax etc, it's theirs to do what they want. When one is forced by any state, town , gov to make it presentable to others, its unconstitution as well as infringing on the bill of rights. If one is just sloppy, I can see how others would be upset, but this mans retail merchandise seems orderly, not just strewn around. Now that he has pronounced its for retail, he could face having to create a business and pay sales tax on all he sells. When SSDI, or what ever program he is on, now will want him to report sales. People should mind their own business. Go to the back woods of Maine, Vermont, Net york state, thats all youll see, junk cars, tractors, fridges, snow mobiles, junk everywhere with the house not even sided, just tar paper stapled to it. As these cases are becoming mainstream media, and successful arrests and fines, we will see they GOV expanding its rule and eventually telling us what we can and cant have in pour yards. Its bad enough your forced to get a building permit to make a frgn 10 by 12 deck, inspectors, pating for permits etc. They want tax money on everything. I built a small deck, a small tool shed, an overhang on my barn, all without permits etc, its non of their frgn business what I do, Know if it was an addition to the house, a new kitchen, bathromm etc, I would take out necc permits and inspections etc. He put up a solid wooden privacy fence, thats all he is required to do. Let them go out and buy cheap plicatta arborvities and plant them on their property if they dont want to see his place. Their homes losing value is B/S, just an excuse to mandate control over this guy. Better yet, since he is a vet with a disabled wife and old himself, how about instead of complaining, be a good neighbor and offer help making it more presentable, an act of goodwill, are they christians? Why do people come down on the poor, the disabled, and especially vet's with no money and disabled spouces? Random acts of kindness are less and less these days. If I lived close, I'd offer to help, plus purchase items from him as well.

How To Overcome Your Fear Of Traveling {Gadling}

Aug 12th 2012 8:24AM Oh how I long to go to the Bosnian pyramids, Gobekli Tepi, The great pyramid, Tiawanacu, Puma Puncu, Pacal's tomb, Duwarka, Easter Isle, Yonaguni, Nasca Lines, Teotihuacan, ancient Sumeria, Palenque etc. I have studied and researched them extensively since age 14, now 52, I hav'nt visited one of them! My DNA demands I go almost like their part of my ancestors ancient past. I planned a trip age 16 with a friend for Machu Pichu, he backed out and I was too afraid to go alone. My family , friends all warned me not to go alone via horrific stories, kidnapping, jungle drug cartells, smugglers etc. I love to fly, yet these fears and my physical diabilities, being very poor also plays into my phobia as well, being so poor holds me back from being a brilliant explorer. I am writing a book, 2 actually, one a personal voyage via both DNA results, astrological charts, geniology, innocense robbed at age 4, journey into addiction and out, journey into major suicidal depression and out, and now my complete ahhwakening and awareness to what's happening to the earth and the future of common people by powers above the Gov. Thank you for lessoning my fear of solo traveling. If I ever collect enough money to one day travel, I will always remember your article, it really resonated with my internal tuning fork. I did once get to see Tutankamans entire tomb once at age 14 at the N.Y. museum, the last time it was ever displayed in whole, I will never forget how that stirred me on so many levels. Until the day I can afford to travel, I will continue archaelogy here, in my home town. I am the only one so far to find a Clovis point here, and other points dating back 10.000 yrs plus. The glacier destroyed any evidence of pre civilization here. Now I am on fire again lol.

How To Overcome Your Fear Of Traveling {Gadling}

Aug 12th 2012 7:40AM I have studied ancient and pre ancient civilizations since age 14, I am now 52 and have not traveled to any one of them out of fear. I have researched so incredibly heavily into Egypt, Sumeria, South America, Turkey, North America and so much more. I had planned a trip at age 16 to Machu Pichu with a friend and when he backed out, I was too afraid to go alone and all my friends and family reinforced my fears with terrible stories and concerns. It was like my spirit was broken and to this day I still have this phobia. I am not afraid to fly at all, rather love it. My fears are of being kidnapped, caught by some jungle living drug smugglers or terrorists, robbed and beaten and left for dead as I go off trail exploring etc. No one in my family nor my friends has the calling I do to go to a few certain places, as though my DNA is demanding I go there. Thanks for this gift of lessoning my fears.

Video: Scientists Make Easter Island Statue Walk {Gadling}

Jun 27th 2012 10:23AM This would make sence on many levels. Making the statues walk would have significant spiritual value to the creators, the walking protectors marching thier way to the cliffs and shores must have been quite the sight. Hewing them from the earth mother and isle itself then making them into either centurions, gods, protectors or greeters. There is a whole chapter missing here, probably never to be known. I still personally think they were testimony to gods that came down to visit, what ever happened to compell this civilization to create these moia, had such an impact on the people that they became obsessed with the event and to commemorate it with permanent images. If only we could go back in time to discover all these civilizations and the incredible monoliths, the pyramid, the maya, aztec, gobekli tepi, puma punku, etc. How I yearn to know the truth.

'Jackass' Star Ryan Dunn Driving 'About 130 MPH' When He Crashed {PopEater}

Jun 22nd 2011 12:16PM so many accidents and deaths with alcohol and or drugs lurking in the back ground not mentioned. No reasonable person is out at 3 AM unless they have been partying. I feel for all for alcoholism and addiction robs so much. My prayers and thoughts with all, tragic and avoidable death.

Italian Mayor to 'Jersey Shore' Cast: No Bars, No Booze {PopEater}

Apr 20th 2011 11:57PM Since most of them show signs of early alcoholism, this should be interesting. I am sure they will find a way to drink and get booted. All fun aside, I was an alcoholic thier age and know the signs, this may really be an eye opener for them and help them st8en up b/f the onset of alcoholism grabs them firmly for the take down.

What's Behind Charlie Sheen's 'Vile' Attack on Denise Richards? {PopEater}

Mar 29th 2011 8:53AM This time he has def done it, he is going to find that even his last loyal fans wont put up with this crap attacking his ex and .... I hope everyone who bought tickets to his Chicago shows ( lord only knows why) will not go, or get refunds, and boycott this attention seeking baby, leaving him with no audience except his embarrasing shadow, who he adores anyway. what a freagin baby, dial 1-800- whaa Charlie.

Charlie Sheen Passes Home Drug Test {PopEater}

Feb 28th 2011 10:15AM dont be fooled, there is high grade drug cheating concotions one can drink 1-3 hours prior that can make a drug test appear clean, its a fact. I am a former addictions specialist who worked with all types. He could have easily taken this, did he actually pee in front of them, did he have a bag and nozzle taped to his lower back, I have seen it all. Have it done in a hospital setting after a normal body search, 2 times, 6 hrs apart with him staying there. A hair test would be more convincing, it cant be altered inless he provides a strand not his. It is so easy to beat a home drug test its pathertic.
