Summary
Mark Koernke discussed preparedness and self-sufficiency in response to a severe wind event that swept across the country on November 9, 2011. He detailed DIY construction techniques for building affordable Quonset hut structures using PVC pipe and vinyl siding, emphasizing over-engineering and scavenging free materials. The show addressed emergency preparedness, dismissed doomsday panic as counterproductive, and took a caller (John) discussing geopolitical concerns about U.S. trade relationships, particularly regarding WASP aircraft engines supplied to Russia during World War II that were subsequently sold to Japan.

The United States government Stay tuned to the Micro Effect Broadcasting Network The Intelligence Report, Mark and Don every morning at 6am pacific time Monday through Friday Rifle Association says it's not guns that kill people, it's maneuvers The Intelligence Report, Mark and Don every morning at 6am pacific time Monday through Friday I want the people to know that they still have two out of three branches of the government working for them and that ain't bad. I've not yet begun to defile myself. His clothes were torn and dirty as he stood there by my bed. He took off his three-cornered hat and speaking low to me he said, we've fought a revolution to secure our liberty. We wrote the Constitution as a shield from tyranny. For future generations this legacy we gave, in this the land of the free. The freedoms we secured for you we hoped you'd always keep. The tyrants labored endlessly while your parents were asleep. Your freedom's gone, your courage lost, you're no more than a slave. In this, the land of the free and home of the brave. You buy permits to travel and permits to own a gun. Permits to start a business or to build a place for one. On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent. Although you have no voice in saying how the money's spent. Your children must attend a school that doesn't educate and your Christian values can't be taught. You read about the current news in a regulated press and you pay a tax you do not owe to please the IRS. Your money is no longer made of silver nor of gold. You trade your wealth for paper so your life can be controlled. You pay for crimes that make our nation turn from God and shame. You've taken Satan's number. You've traded in your name. You've given government control to those who do you harm so they could burn down churches and seize the family farm. And keep our country deep in debt. Put men of God in jail. Harash your fellow countrymen while corrupted courts prevail. Your public servants don't uphold the solemn oaths they've sworn. And your daughters visit doctors so their children will be born. Your leaders send artillery. and guns to foreign shores, and send your sons to slaughter fighting other people's wars. Can you regain the freedoms for which we fought and died? Or don't you have the courage or the faith to stand with pride? And are there no more values for which you will fight to save? Or do you wish your children and fear and be a slave? O sons of the Republic, arise, take a stand, defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the land. Preserve our great Republican, each God given right. And pray to God to torture freedom, as I awoke he'd vanished in the midst for whence he came. His words were true, we are not free, but we have ourselves to blame. For even now as tyrants trampled, each God given right, we only watch him tremble, too afraid to stand and fight. If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you were asleep, and wondered what remains of the freedoms he'd fought to keep, What would be your answer if he called out from the grave? Morning ladies and gentlemen, this is the first hour of the morning intelligence report. I'm our quirky one day closer to victory for all of our brothers and sisters both on and behind the lines in occupied territories west central southeast and east Well ladies and gentlemen, you were listening to us on the Micro Effect Network in the morning also on Liberty Tree radio dot 4 mg.com We're on a em and FM micro stations CB base stations and ultra net technologies both east and west of the Mississippi along with southern and central Alaska We're in the hallmark network Eastern seaboard top I mean to the bottom of Florida bottom of Florida cuz the Ark of the Gulf of Mexico ahead in Louisiana, Texas Oklahoma big chunk of Nebraska a bunch of Wyoming to include both the pit in the third and Then sweeping across the plains, just like that big gust of wind from that close strike yesterday that swept across the whole of the country from the south north, hey, follow back to the impact area in the atmosphere, couldn't you? All across the Mississippi headed over those burgeoning banks and landing in the smokies with the restaurant crews, grandma teams, the OK teams, and the Ma Bell Grandma Consortium were doing their part to get the job done to ensure that we have a replacement for the internet. Many hands make for light work. And again, we have the 1 million Ma Bell Grandma Consortium outposts slash petticoat junctions everywhere like a geodesic dome. Other systems were knocked down yesterday. Most everything that was independent was running full force and in one form or another because of the wind. Not so much because of the test of the emergency process that everybody was standing on by and ready for because it was the end of the worms as we know it. a good voice from the grave and we're really not here and I guess it's a matrix within a matrix within a matrix within a matrix now. That's a great way to explain that, you know, we really don't know what we're talking about, we're all dead. Anyway, it is a beautiful Thursday. Of course, the wind, like I said, all this weather, and whether it be a close strike off the atmosphere, so many of those that you've experienced we don't even know about, And if we did, and we don't know about them, then, well, it's the old story. If a tree falls in the woods, does it make a noise? Or would anybody even know? Well, you will when you find it and pull out the chainsaw. If you get there soon enough, the port turns into mulch and the bugaboos turn into, you know, convert fertilizer and soil. Anyway, it is the 10th of November. It is the fourth year of open Fabian Socialist and Soviet Socialist occupation of America with a K2011 by old earth calendar and of course the day after the end of the world. Today, being the day after the end of the world, it's the end of the worms as we know it. It's the end of the worms as we know them. Well, for that reason, kids, guess what? What we said before, preparation is everything. You know what? That near strike that swept the whole of the country, because that had to be what it was. I mean, it could be a heart, it could be whatever, but nah, it's more likely, again, it was a thumper. We've had this happen before here in the Great Lakes. We've got some really famous overhead lights and stuff that we've seen where everybody in the state watched one of the East Street from north to south and it was seen from the Upper Peninsula, the Keweenaw, across the whole of the length of the state. We even saw it for a few minutes, probably about 30 or some seconds. This is years ago. We were driving northbound. Everybody was in the car. Wow! Watch the thing streak by and either burn up or pass on. I think it was a pass on. It's one of those things where they really didn't want to talk about it much. But you get the fantastic wind effects, the multiple layer of weather effects. Something we've told everybody about just to watch for anyway. Michigan has the Great Lakes. So we're used to all of this. This is like wow, it's like Michigan weather. The big thing is how did your equipment hold up to that wind that came through? Did it teach you a few lessons about tying things down? Did it teach you a few lessons about why it is you have to be prepared for multiple incursions? Really, it's no different from any other kind of extreme weather condition except in this case focused as a gust. blast wave. If you really wanted to wonder about what it would be like, imagine if you see a nuclear exchange. You're going to have concussive waves like this that would be coming from several different directions. The atmosphere will be bumped over and over and over again, guys. So this is something where, again, making sure that you grossly over-engineer or that you've secured as much as you can. Remember, it's light stuff. It's going downrange. Wherever the wind takes it till something catches it so otherwise do your designs You know serve their function One of the things that we've had a pretty interesting experiment with here for the last year year and a half last year We changed the design from our on our greenhouses. We decide to experiment And so what I did is I got a bunch of free, I love free, free's really fun. And you know, I ended up buying a few extra pieces from Habitat for Humanity from somebody else's scrap pile. But I got a bunch of free full-length 16-foot vinyl siding. And nice thing is that because they're all worried about, you know, most of the vinyl siding is actually in tactical plastic colors, guys. What's really neat Because you've got tactical shades to choose from, more from your scrap of course. You've got grays, you've got earth green, gray browns, all kinds of cool colors that really make sense. Now the barn red, well if you have to use it, you use it, but remember barn red doesn't blend in a whole lot of places. But even the blue, the colonial blues are actually kind of like an Air Force Midnight Blue. And at night, those steam and dirty the day, they're fairly neutral because they're not a real bright, bright blue range. They actually can work too. The point is if it's free, take it, use it, and experiment. But what we did is we used one inch PVC pipe and created two harps utilizing two 10-foot pieces of PVC pipe. and then a jointer at the top, a straight jointer, or you can use an angle jointer, you know, a joint. What we do with these is you can either glue them permanently or you can just pressure, you know, fit together. Now, what we did then, of course, is separate, you know, we lay out a form. So many feet wide, however long you want to make the thing, of course, depending on how much length the vinyl siding is, is what I would determine your present design right now, because fast and easy is the idea. Cheap and easy, minimal work, maximum result. You get a 16-foot building that's about, oh, what, 14 feet, 15 feet wide at the base, and an arc tall enough that you can stand up or actually park a small vehicle inside. So if you want to make a cheap and easy garage, this is a way to do it. The PVC pipe is separated by a distance of two feet, just like you would for rough construction for a shed. And the arcs come together. You, of course, you map it out so it's a rectangle. Every two feet you have a PVC pipe, one inch. You could use, I guess, one and a quarter, but one inch is the norm because we also use these for our greenhouse design. And we use the one and a quarter to make clamps that go on the one inch pipe. Anyway, the next step is get yourself some self-dapping screws or if you want to go really cheap, you usually get drywall screws everywhere for nothing, especially if you watch around, people are tossing stuff out of yard sales. And then you get your drill, electric battery, or plug, and or solar powered, or whatever. And then you go to town, basically screwing and ensuring that of course you keep the line straight for your pipes. You screw the vinyl siding to the PVC and lock it in place the way you normally would. Now, tell you what, we get some major snow here in Michigan. And like the traditional quads of hut, which was made with corrugated metal, amazingly enough, the PVC pipe and the vinyl siding hold up to a foot and a half, two foot, three foot of snow. Plus, you've got to remember you have snow that piles up because it slides off the vinyl siding and lids up on the side of the hut. Now, you're going to get some moisture, of course, unless you think about in advance about putting a platform inside. Here's a cheap solution, pallets. Put your four inches off the ground. You're not going to have any seepage. There's no water that's going to come up and rise up and hit your floor. Then you can lay down chipboard, plywood, whatever you got a lot of. Nail that down or just tack it down again or zip, screw it down. You have an elevated floor. You can insulate the walls with four bay sheets of foam siding. The four bay sheets, cheapest for the mostest. And on the inside, you do the same thing you did on the outside. You take in zip, zip, zip, screw them right to the PVC pipe. Now you've got an insulated inner wall got a rigid structure you have a corrugated outer front outer outer support system and When we just had this big wind although we've had many other big winds it has not affected this design at all Now of course our buildings are the same because I all the buildings I've put together from scrap and you know what I don't do the spec I did the spec that would be chintz I Grossly over engineer all of the buildings that I put together. They're all heavy construction, even the small ones, and in fact smaller there with more mutual support. 2x6, 2x4, multi-stud, in fact, everything is overlapped and overlapped and actually fixtured side by side with extra materials. Why? Because it's free, cheap, and I've got to use it up. to the point where, guess what, all of it's insulated, each one is a living quarters. If I needed to, I could put somebody in each one of the little buildings we have, no matter how big or small, you can light, heat the thing with a candle, and stay comfortable inside. Wow, the little Quonset hut. Well, we're probably going to do a little bit of a design video here if we can because this last season it stored two military Jeep trailers, all kinds of camouflage material, duffel bags, foot lockers. In fact, literally it was a complete equipment module. But it could just as quickly be, especially for its size, a housing unit in the field. And consider this, if you know what your dimensions for everything is, You could actually and by the way which used to cut the final sighting in the field is not a saw saws make noise Not going to do much cutting anyway, but a couple pairs of sheet metal shears Not the fine steps, but the long and a long coarse blade Big heavy coarse blade like you used for doing sheet metal sheet cutting straight cut Guys, that's the quickest way to do the vinyl sighting and the reason is because if you grabbed a couple of bundles of vinyl sighting PVC pipe now I did mention mention this that for the for your post to make your support for your PVC pipe Chunks of rebar I save free bar if I just got two four foot pieces off a construction site here that were tossing out yesterday Those are ideal because you drive them into the ground halfway You run your PVC pipe into that and that's the base for each of those PVC pipes to hold them down on you know, just keep static on the ground so Here's a little utility kit. First of all, I need tools. What tools would I put into my kit and leave them in the bag for my PVC Quonset hut? Well, number one, screwdriver, flat blade and a screwdriver, Phillips. Actually, I have a handful of decent ones, not the cheapest ones, from the dollar store, from a yard sale or from a resale shop. We have old tools from one of the defunct factories locally. Put a handful of screwdrivers in there. One small hand sledgehammer or large ball peen hammer doesn't make any difference which model it is as long as it can drive a stake It goes to be a full-size sledgehammer if you want that'll be fine Just a matter of what kind of money you can spend in addition to that like I said a couple of cheap pairs although average You know a nice set of tin steps at least one two would be a good idea to see a backups and so two people can be working at once So that's right. You got a crew if at all possible, but one person can set this thing up quick one person and Then you want to however many PVC pipe you're going to need, 10 footers, the extra, the number of joiners that you need plus extra joiners. Make up a kit with spares, okay? So if something breaks, something gets lost, guess what? You still have more in the kit. You don't have to go, I'm going to fudge it. Because not only can this thing be put up fast, this thing could also be disassembled and moved and brought down to its basic components over and over again. Once you know how it goes together, why not? Oh, that makes sense Mark. So this is a semi-permanent or rigid, actually it's a rigid but still lightweight housing unit or storage unit or vehicle cover unit or whatever you need. In fact, it'd be a great emergency response preparedness construction that could be put into an area where you had like that tornado devastation here just this last season. and you needed a building to go up quick to put everybody's personal property in the house. The roof is off the house. You can cover the roof temporarily, but you need a structure to put things in. Guess what? You throw so many pallets in there, a couple boxes, full boxes of the vinyl siding, the PVC pipe. Everything stacks in the back of a pickup truck. You pull up. You lay out your rectangle, you clear off a piece of real estate, lay off your rectangle, drive your stakes, put your PVC pipe together. Zip, zip, zip, zip. You know where you get your battery power from for your electric drill, guys? What you do is you take one of these battery-powered drills that somebody is tossing out because the batteries have become too expensive or obsolete. There's no batteries for it. What you do is you get into the chassis and you put two long black and red cable lines. So, you can put the power on the side of the car, and you can put the power on the side of the car. And you use alligator clamps, you know, the clips to attach to your car battery. And you use your car battery as a mobile generator unit. You've got a whole pile of tools that cost somebody else $300, $400, $500. You get them for $10 at the yard sale because nobody wants to buy more of the batteries because they think they're too expensive. And either they lost the batteries or they only want the battery for the drill they're going to keep and they decide to get rid of all the other tools. Guess what? Now you've got all the power tools you need and you can convert them over and make your own kit up. Oh! One of our guys, that's how he does everything. He's completely off the grid. Everything that he uses, even the power, even the fuel that he's using is fuel that he's producing for the vehicle from his equipment and the power that he makes runs the equipment that makes more fuel. It's all closed system, it's all his. Again, these little Quonset huts would be awfully handy as an emergency system for shelter for your vehicles, although for some of you, maybe you don't have a garage and you want to experiment this year. You have a small car, you don't want the wife to have to scrape off the snow or you want to keep it out of the rain. This is a great way to experiment. Now, on the inside, the only thing is a variation. The half inch or 3-eighths inch foam siding with a mylar slash foil. Remember, that's in 4 by 8 foot panels. The arc of your structure is 10 feet each side. So what you can do is take the panels and run them on the high end or remember you can also, and here's a neat trick, you can run them horizontally, four foot high, eight foot wide, and then you only need two, and then two, and you cut one in half for your last two foot on the top end of that 10 foot arch. Oh, look at that. For 10 panels of insulation, the whole inside of the arc of the structure is insulated. Now the end caps, as far as sealing everything, two techniques. One, actually three, canvas, stretch plastic using the PVC one and a quarter inch clamps I talked about made from one and a quarter inch PVC pipe and the clamps will go right over the internal diameter of that clamp will go over the outer diameter of a one inch PVC pipe and you could use plastic over the end or you can make entrances and end caps from more PVC pipe and joiners and angles and even fabricate doors. But that's where the scissors come in. You're not going to cut anything on the sides. You're going to make the whole side panel so it all goes up in one sweep. So if you just want an open-ended structure, give you overhead cover from rain, there you go. But if you want to seal it, well, guess what? You're going to actually cut the angles with the tin snips. And you can structure with more vinyl siding an end cap front and back for that building and you're talking pretty darn comfortable for a remote location where you had nothing only an hour earlier. It'll take you longer to do the end caps but in less than an hour, usually 20 minutes to an hour, you could have the whole thing put together. Wow, and when you're done, live comfortably. Hey, up to you. You guys got to figure that one out. It's not Mark. It's your job. Anyway, just ideas. That gust of wind, let's take that back to the epicenter. Guys, National Weather Service, we should be able to map out the gust slash burst from satellite signature and take it right back to show everybody right where the skim was that probably caused the thump on the atmosphere that had that wave of wind that went across the country yesterday. See, we didn't say things won't happen, but you know what? Unless I'm talking to you from the grave? It's the end of the world as we know it yesterday and we have a new day every day before us instead of rains It's my goodness. It must be another planet. We got clear sky outside. We have medium temperatures again Don't expect that to stay it's gonna change again. They're saying, you know, what first in what's the weather man who trust him anyway? But by the end of the weekend, we may have snow well, it's November gee. What a surprise We've had snow flurries and different spots around the state of Michigan We've had some warm, then we've had some cold. This is classic fall. This is how all of our falls are right now. So I mean have been, as long as I've been alive in Michigan. So be prepared for it. Make sure you got everything squared away and be aware it's going to get colder faster and make sure you got your pool weather gear with you. Other things, talking from beyond the grave here. We're almost to the bottom of the hour. Don't forget. Hopefully, if you thought it was the end of the world, you donated everything you owned to the Micro Effect yesterday when I asked you to. Did everybody do this? That thought it was the end of the world and we're all gonna die. Okay, I didn't call Joe and ask him if anybody did that, put their money where their mouth was. Now, since we're here today, this is a demonstration again of, yes, things will get bad or things could get bad. But some people do that because it's a great way to help our enemy. What? Yeah, because everybody does this sit on their hands, wheeze wheeze, it's the end of the world and blah blah blah blah blah. Well, I will repeat again what I said yesterday. If you're at the Alpha or the A point in the impact area, It's a bummer. I don't care if it's you stepping out this morning and God you better not do this because I'm telling you right now look left and right watch for cars by the way motorcycles if they hit you're just as bad as motorcycle is not gonna be you can try and miss you but I've seen people have that happen. They're so busy focusing on I gotta get mail or they're looking at mail in the mailbox coming across the street and Yes, that is a car Martha And it's still on the road the way it normally would be. And you stepping out while not paying attention isn't the best way to end up with a, you know, anything other than, shall we say, bruised body parts at least, or terminal illness, you know, slash impact injury. So here's how it works. If you're at the alpha point, walking out to the mailbox, stepping out in front of the car on the way back, that's really bad. If you're in the car that hit you, that's not good, but that's a beat category person. The person goes crazy and they're still part of the a experience and they smack into a tree or or somehow it's like the Matrix and you're like Superman the car crumbles around you the car flops up the guy fumbles over and over and over and over and ends up you know upside down in a burning wreck Well, then that's not good But he's probably gonna be part of the B category because cars win and people by themselves outside the cars being hit by them lose But he's still in the B impact area. Well, he's very much alive afterwards. Is he supposed to quit suicide now? others are server process three god forbid that your family members were going to go wise new watching for that card even shouted are but you didn't hear your two busy reading a letter or the noted notification or the billing and that's why you got hit well should the c category person commit suicide because they watched you die also horrible i got a lot that ever happen to me i'm gonna kill myself now to save the time and it's not very bright does it What about category D, the people coming from the other direction who saw something but couldn't quite tell what it was and now are up on the accident. They see the person over on the saw pavement pulling out a pocket knife and slitting their throat. The driver who was upside down who didn't burn in his car, he's decided to pull out a pistol he was carrying and blow his brains up because he just watched you die. Now are they supposed to walk up and go, wow, it must be a disease and pull out a pencil and stick himself in the head and kill himself? Boy mark here said this really sounds stupid. That's right. Well, that's how stupid as far as I'm concerned is people that do the we're all gonna die Know what usually that's kind of person you gotta reach over and slap real hard ones Okay, we are all going to die eventually. I mean come on time waits for no one It's not an if you know, it's the old saying ain't no one getting out of here alive We are put in a different way and again, thank thank you Lord for our you know your you know son and our Lord and Savior Savior Jesus Christ Do you have faith or you centered if you're centered you'll do just fine But otherwise, again, stay focused and get the job done. We've got a lot of work to do. And if you still want to donate everything you own to the Micro Effect, please do that. I wouldn't have a problem. But instead, you know, there is moderation. Donate to the Micro Effect, 888-747-1968, because we need Joe Haddon in Heart Attack. Okay, we want to make sure he's healthier. We want to take the weight off him. Now, let's get focused on the real fight here. Ignore all of the people who are doing the It's the End of the World stuff. Remember that you're going to roll with the punches. We're going to get off the other side. better than the bad guys. We'll be back. Mic perfect in the morning. Hold on a second here. Oh yeah, that's cold coffee. Wow. From yesterday. Energy.

We are back from the grave, that's right. It's the end of the worms as we know it, but it's the day after. It's the end of the worms as we know it, but it's the day after. And look out, wow, Bummer fighting that battle. You notice the attitude was they turned and faced when fought. Wow, you know the idea behind that you understand eventually as a soldier whatever energy you got left you pointed your enemy Why? Well, even if you are dying you got a good three minutes left where you can put bullets into them rather than them putting bullets into your friend That's right. You fight you fight you fight you fight and maybe you aren't the one but you know what you're all pushing towards the same standard Flag stays flying you win That's the whole idea. We've got to beat them down. It is the day after doomsday and since we're all still here I assume although Don you might be talking from the grave too. I'm not sure. Oh I can see the sun. Now it's interesting guys that gust of wind first of all as we've said it's the end of the world as we know it. Every day is that. Yesterday we had the bad guys try to play the emergency systems card. However well they did, well you know in your area whether it went beep or poop or just plain farted, we can't be sure. Great exercise for us. We had everything ready to roll. All the batteries were up. Everything is squared away. Although I did find out what should have been nailed down better from that big gust of wind that swept across the country down. And it's interesting, we were covering this. Remember, everybody felt that. Here's the thing, hopefully someone was having some fun because if you're weather watchers, if you're inside you heard it go by. Everybody did. So let's ask a question. That was either a hell of a big storm burst out of the Gulf or that was the direction of, obviously, the passing of our aircraft carrier sized rock touching the atmosphere in some way, wouldn't you think? Now, if somebody were industrious out there, they'd be mapping back, and I'm sure they already were, but some people are, but you need to look around. Somebody should have mapped back the pressure wave from that front that came from the south at high speed, but it still took how long to travel the country? How much time did you really have to prepare? Because we were talking to people in the south who said, hey, it's coming your way, whatever the hell. We got this big gust of wind, this big front coming right from the Gulf of Mexico, from the south of the United States. And it's like, yep, and sure enough, when it hit, it picked anything up that was soft and was moving it around. Although, in fact, I got a vinyl cover, plastic sheet cover that's over on one side of the yard that was completely over around the corner, around a building on the other side of the yard. But all my grocery over-engineered construction held up just fine. Amazingly enough, we almost lost a couple of windows because I've been scavenging stuff and I can't pass stuff when I get them for free. I've got these two frame studio windows down and they demonstrated that those oak frames and the quality of American glass is still pretty high even though those are 50 year old windows. And neither one of them broke. I shouldn't say where it'll come out and find that a stick ran through them last night or something fell off a tree. Beyond that, everything did what it was supposed to do, and we were ready for pretty much everything if you've been listening and been prepping for what could happen. Guess what? That guy didn't hit the switch. Obviously, this 911 has passed for the moment. And there's another one. So let's do it this way. Let's just figure that those little, cableistic nutcase number crunchers are gonna try for next month because they've only got one day left they can do this on guys. Don, there's only one 9-1-1 left in for the year 2011. Because we just passed one. That was yesterday. Now, they love that number. So let's use this as a training date again. What do you say guys? You went through, we went through the end of the world yesterday. Don, I know you and I are talking from the grave and this is all like a matrix within the matrix within the matrix within the matrix and we're actually all dead. I'm going to know Yeah, well, I'll tell you what, Neo. Let's just get on with kicking their butt. I just love the idea that I can do quadruple somersaults land on my feet and still fire from a 45 degree angle and get the bullet to whirl around in a spiral and hit the guy behind the guy that it was kind of close to. Yeah, I like the instant training aspect. I know jujitsu. Oh, I do a kawafu. Oh, I know baseball bat. Smack. There you go. Okay, I didn't they didn't do that. Hey, what about baseball bat? Yes, we can't teach you a baseball bat. I'll still oh it's there cool And let's not forget this the traveling rifle racks my favorites like shing Okay Now my point is it's still I don't care what they come up with it's changing mags time I'm just especially if you're a skinny guy and you got a whole lot of room on the torso Carrying 25 guns isn't gonna do it guys Okay Spare magazines are so much lighter and smaller and if you're so blasted fast because I can barely see your motion What's the big deal about changing mags, you know? Mag in look it's there mag out. It's there. See I control the matrix Anyway in real world you do have to go through and follow through on things for at least whatever we wanted You know for those people that argue it's not real man. Good. Can I have your stuff? What can I have your stuff? When people do that, I always say, we're all going to die, can I have your stuff? Well, maybe you're going to die, can I still have your stuff? Because it still sounds like you believe there's a high probability, can I have your stuff? So in reality, what it is, it's a great excuse to procrastinate. In fact, I will point this out again. There are people who seem to be in our sphere. broadcast solely to help the enemy so that people will find excuses to procrastinate or not perform. Well if things get bad in a couple of years I might want to tell you you're gonna. I'll tell you what do it now get it over with and get out with other things real simple make it part of your program. And in fact, we're giving you solutions. I'll even point that out again, guys. There's some great prices right now on Sega light carvings, the 223, some 60x39 and 545. One of my favorites right now because it's the cheapest ammo to buy. People go, I don't care for the ammo. 545x39, cheapest ammo on the market for a light rifle caliber. You can buy tons of it in the can so it's already weatherized. You get lots of can openers. You make sure you buy lots of mags right now and $300 will get you one of those Sega Russian made Russian barrel, all Russian expertise involved with the AK which is their design, not ours. and guess what you got a hell of a rifle don't change it it's got a rail on the side grab some scope mounts put a piece of glass on the roof buy one of Don's night vision devices and you got all the bases covered and it's a package deal in other words it's all ripped prep to go don't let it buy into all these other gimmicks pistol grips are nice if the rifle came with a pistol grip I'd leave it that way if the rifle doesn't come with a pistol grip I'd leave it that way Be quite honest, the pistol grip actually, well a lot of you are older and many weapons were built with specific ergonomic concept for quick draw but also for comfort to reduce recoil. Pistol grips do not reduce recoil. In fact, you put your hand right behind and you become a supportive part of the weapon which is cool with regard to controlling the platform. But, remember that just like old Magnum shooters, when they were young Magnum shooters, they're blazing away with full house loads every day. They get to about 45 and you start noticing when they come to the range they've got wrist supports. Yep. That pistol grip loads that in. Some people just, you're right. Interest, oh I'm sorry. Interestingly enough, Smith & Wesson, a couple other companies, Hogue and also Pockmeyer, came up with Pockmeyer grips for the pistol, you know, to make a pistol grip shotgun. But guys, if you look at the design, they went more with the Ithaca safety gun type rear in that it wasn't a 90 degree angle or a little under a 90 degree angle pistol grip. It actually sweeps off the back of the gun So that you actually create the same kind of riding arc that takes place when you're using a conventional shotgun with a shoulder stock or a rifle, a traditional hunting rifle. It affects your feet energy. Yeah, in fact if you take a look at the design of the original Colt single actions or the Remington single action cap and balls Have you noticed how that arch is set up and in reality as it recoils the weapon actually turns which is a natural action allowing you to engage with your thumb although people don't really think about this is how it works. It allows you to engage more effectively the hammer push the weapon back into the target area and boom reset actually is part of the recoil itself is part of the cycle of the gun. as far as how you mechanically operate it. Tell you what we do. We got a caller though. Who do we have? I heard a bell in the background. Good morning Mark. For something. John, do you have your mailbox safety kit on before you leave the house? Do you know how many people walk out to their mailbox and are hit by cars every day? You know, you can call 1-800-SAFTY-BOX and you will get your new mailbox safety kit so that you have a bumper kit along with a plastic bubble to wear when you go to get the mail. It's incredible. What's the latest rumor? Let's see, we had the asteroid, the guy with all the boxes. It's ridiculous. What can you do about it? Here's the way I look at it with regard to most of these. Okay, first of all, we're going to take care of ourselves and we just need to be ready first to either plug them with a nice chunk of lead, beat them with a battle axe, and also still be able to feed our families and take care of our friends and everybody we love. The basic way I gauge it is like this. If I could step outside, I felt that gust of wind yesterday. Actually, we were doing the program when that thing hit here. That is a natural or semi-natural occurrence or even if it was a nuclear exchange or a weapons system. You know, it's going to bounce back and forth. Okay, be ready for it. Test to see what happens when that happens. Yesterday was a great test. No matter what it was, everybody had a chance to see if they're prepared to work for them. But if I go outside and if I heard that the world economy collapsed tomorrow, if you stepped out of your front porch, did you have a wave of dollar bills fly by up there in Maine, John, after the collapse? The paperwork from outside of the drawers just fluttered by your front porch? Did you see that? Probably not, probably won't. So in other words, it's not reality, it's the fiction they've created that they're all frustrated that they used to manipulate us that's failing. 100% correct. Yeah, in other words you don't think I would prefer if things got bad if their paper flew by I'd be out with a garbage bag picking it up because I need more fire starter because I don't get junk mail anymore Yeah, it wouldn't work for toilet paper because it yeah Not only that is hand be handled by greasy creatures that are scurrilous and evil scurrilous and evil Yeah, the same is true with like everybody does all but if Washington were gone, okay? Go out the front porch if Washington were gone tomorrow Would you miss them and would there be any way to tell that they were gone if we got rid of all these skank? or even the ones in our state like in Lansing or even the ones in the county which we've got a whole bunch of rotten eggs at the county level too. And even at the township level in many parts of the country, would you miss it? If they're all dead tomorrow, would you miss them? Would it make any difference? Would you walk out of the proportion and go, wow, the trees are withering. You know because of the politicians aren't there anymore. No they wouldn't if the bankers were gone tomorrow Would life go on without them? Yeah, and much more comfortably Yeah, it's like give me a break what is the bankrupt what are they gonna dump it off into the Atlantic? It's amazing everything goes to zero and they just start figuring out how to do it again Yeah, and you know what's really funny the only other option today would be this Don, I could just picture this too. What the hell's that? Well, John had a great idea. The Chinese just showed up with container ships. And everything's going in the boxes! One girl in a hole! Yeah, don't worry. He's taking the rivets out, sir. And trust me, they're really good at disassembling. Wait a minute, those look like cut-off saws. Yeah, I don't think they're really gonna use it for a bridge. They just want the metal. There's a good correlate before World War II selling Japan's 30's. and they built the WASP which was put into a number of fighters. It was in some of the naval aircraft, but we also, it was the first engine, one of the biggest engines that we sent to the Russians for Lend-Lease. Now, think about this, you saw the epic stories and Don, we've talked about this on the air over and over again, where the Atlantic crews, you know, where the guys put the motors into the boats here in the Great Lakes and they went down to St. Lawrence, they hit the Atlantic and they were transferred to other ships, or in some cases the poor buggers tried to use lake ships to go across the Atlantic because it's all we had left. Most of those went to the bottom in the Atlantic with their cargoes because they busted in two because they weren't built for the ocean But we used to try to use many we did World War one we did it World War two Anyway, those motors went across the great northern Atlantic. They hit hit the Baltic We dropped those WASP engines off in the hands of the Russians because poor old Uncle Joe, that mass murdering son of a bugger in Russia, that was the worst thing. Hitler looked like a piker by comparison and the whole thing should have focused on Stalin, but they never did that because the Communists were in the US. Anyway, they put the WASP engines on trains. They shipped them all the way across Russia to Manchuria. The Russians did not have a war going on with Japan, so they sold the engines straight to the Japanese. who turned right around and put them right into their knockoffs of our aircraft. Every plane that we built, when they found a wreck, they copied it. They had a copy of the Wildcat. They also had a Japanese copy of the Bearcat. Forgive me, the Hellcat. They had a copy of every plane we built, except maybe the Corsair, because really the gullwing issue is something you didn't really want to play with. But here's the thing. My uncle on my dad's side, one of my great uncles, My dad, of course, was in the Pacific. Well, several of my uncles were in the Pacific and went right across. One of them got hit in the Philippines. They were at Palalu. They took the airfield. This is history. Everybody in the family knows it. My uncles worked at the Wasp plant, too. They took the airfield and on the airplane, on the aircraft engine chalks, inside the dashed out hangers and laying out in the field, were the engines that they built two years earlier. The engines that they built to fight the war, to save us from the Axis, were the aircraft that had been bombing their ships, were the engines that were moving the aircraft, that were bombing our ships on the way there to take Palalu. And that was one of those, shall we say, Kodak moments where everybody goes, well, son of a bugger. And everybody had to... Remember, the Russians didn't declare... The Russians sold everything necessary to the Japanese to kill us all through World War II while we were doing the lead and least BS. They never declared war against Japan until the last two years of the war. Two weeks. Yeah, I forgive you, two years. I said, you're slapping me in the microphone. The last two weeks of the war. And that's why Korea came about. The Russians rushed down. Remember, there's that big tender of nation states where they come together for commerce. down there where North Korea is. And China, and Korea, and Russia, and even Japan from the other direction all come together. And the Russians flooded the area where it ran right down the peninsula and virtually took the Korean Peninsula. Everybody seems to forget that. There's a little secret about that time frame. Yeah, we backed them off at Banff Point by basically saying, well, you know, we just dropped two nukes on Japan and we got plenty for you. You know, the Japanese were left in charge of a lot of the islands. and even portions of mainland China because there was no other force or anything organized. Yeah, no government. But it didn't happen. No, they couldn't take that chance. Actually, the Koreans were still very Korean and they are today. People really don't really understand Korea. But, you know, John, your point about China real quick, because I know we're going to run out of time here. Oh, we are. Guys, we're selling them everything to kill us, but here's the problem. We don't have any production like we had before World War II here. We have no production. We have no production. We couldn't even produce a bobby pin. Well, we could think about it, and we could send the Chinese a copy and have them... but they'd never send it. Yeah. Hey, but they'd use it in their army. I have a comment on an interesting book, if it's okay I'll hold on after the hour and take you up this book and then I'll drop off and let someone else in. Thank you, God.
