Free Fuel

Yeah, I know I lied to you again. Here’s last Saturday’s post.

One of the biggest threats facing us today is the price of gas and oil. But it need not be. You are probably not aware that during WWII Europeans ran their cars, trucks, and tractors on wood. That’s right, wood. By attaching a wood gas generator to their vehicle, they were able to thumb their noses at the oil shortage.

And much to the dismay of oil companies, these wood gas generators are easily constructed using common materials found in a junk yard. Send me an email and I’ll send you a link for instructions on how to build one.

There are some down-sides to making your fuel from wood. For one thing, you have to haul around a unit that has fire in it, probably not what you’d want in the trunk if your Mercedes. But if your transportation is limited to 15 year old cars or an old beater of a pickup truck, you could live with it.

Then there’s the problem of cutting wood. Almost any wood will do. If you live in an area where there are ongoing timber operations, you will have an almost unlimited supply from left over limbs etc. from the timber cutting process. If not, used lumber and other scrap wood will propel you down the road.

Another problem is the ever intrusive government. I’m sure hauling around a wood-burning apparatus on your vehicle would violate all kinds of pollution and safety regulations. But when (not if) TEOTWAWNKI hits not many of us will pay much attention to these regulations.

The up-side to wood gas generators is no fuel costs. These units can be adapted to run a generator to power your home or pump water. They can run your farm tractor. They can do anything gasoline can do.

This technology has been around for a long time. The reason no one uses it any more is after WWII gasoline got cheap. And the oil companies couldn’t figure out how to charge you for it. Therefore, it disappeared. But thanks to the internet it is available again. Better grab it before it disappears again. Otherwise, you might be walking.

Obama Didn't Inherit Nothing

I am sick to death of hearing the Obama administration “inherited” all its problems from the Bush administration. Obama didn’t “inherit” anything. When someone dies he has the opportunity to leave his worldly possessions to whomever he wants. This is accomplished through an instrument called a will.

Last time I looked, Bush didn’t die. And if he had died he most assuredly would not have left anything to Hussein Obama. The fact is, Obama wanted to be President so bad he lied, cheated and who knows what else to get what he wanted.

Another fact is that the economy was in poor shape when Obama was elected. Bush had decided to bail out the banking industry in hope of stimulating the economy. Obama had every chance to stop this. But he instead pumped billions of dollars we didn’t have into more than one industry. Thanks to him, we, the tax payers, now own General Motors, Chrysler and several banks. All under the control and direction of the liberal federal government. You know how well the government runs businesses. Just look at Medic-Care, Medic-Aid and Social Security. If private business ran their affairs like the government runs these programs the prisons couldn’t hold all the CEOs.

Instead of blaming the Bush administration for the mess Obama has created he needs to act like a man and say “I screwed up”. But he’s not a man. He’ll watch the country fall into oblivion and like a school-yard child. He’ll say “Bush did it.”

Random Thoughts

I’m going to make Saturday my regular post day. There might be other posts in between but on Saturdays you’ll get something even if its just random thoughts.

EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said, "I believe the central parts of the [EPA] chart are that U.S. action alone will not impact world CO2 levels." When Obama's Energy Secretary, Steven Chu, was shown the EPA charts he simply said that he disagrees. Good. That settles it now, doesn't it? The EPA Administrator says that our wonderful cap-and-tax bill won't make any difference in global temperatures, and the Energy Secretary disagrees. So everything is just fine. Let the tax increase roll on.

Obama’s approval ratings are down. I guess the honeymoon is over. America is finally waking up. I hope its not too late.

The pervert Michael Jackson news is finally slowing down. There will be a big fight over his estate. MJ’s father is claiming MJ was murdered. What a mess.

Obama is touring the world. He says Ghana is a “Model for success”. Wouldn’t you like the U.S. to be just like Ghana? Where the hell is Ghana anyway?

The Sarah Palin bashers just won’t give it a rest. One claimed she resigned because she had something to do with MJ’s death. Give me a break. If anybody ever had a reason for removing themselves from public office, she did. She has been beat up, maligned, and ridiculed by the liberal left even more than “Dubya”. Now that she’s not hindered by the governor’s office, I hope she says the things that Republicans needed to say during the campaign. Take off the gloves, Sarah. Kick the crap out of ‘em.

I wonder if the feds are monitoring my blog for anti-Obama statements. It’s a sad state of affairs when that even crosses my mind.

I Ain’t Gonna Do It

When Saddam Hussein was captured I refused to write a column about it because every columnist in the world had written one. So it is with the death of Michael Jackson. I refuse to be a part of publicizing the death of a pervert.

I refuse to comment on all the children he corrupted by feeding them alcohol and other unspeakable acts against them during ‘sleep-overs”. Thanks only to a liberal, celebrity worshipping jury MJ was not in prison.

I won’t tell you how cute MJ was during his early years. He was the star of the Jackson Five, a pop group made up of his brothers and himself. They had several big rock and roll hits in the 1960’s. Even a future redneck like me could appreciate the talent.

I’ll pass on telling you how something went wrong in MJ’s life. And about how he wanted to be white so bad he bleached his skin and underwent many plastic surgeries to alter his appearance. And forget about hearing from me how something caused his nose to fall off necessitating the use of prosthesis.

And never will I bring up his celebrity marriage to Lisa Marie Pressley, the daughter of the real King, Elvis. I took this as absolute proof that Elvis is really dead. If he had been alive he most assuredly would have surfaced when he got the wedding invitation. He then would have died.

So don’t turn to me looking for me to write sympathetic words about this freak. I ain’t gonna do it.
