Your mindset is in fact, your unconscious, and yet it
drives every action and reaction you make whether
you realize it or not, and the results show in whatever
profession you are involved with as well as your life.
There has been a boatload of talk about mindsets in
recent years, but very few people know what they
are and even less know how to address and change
them.
In a nutshell, your mindset is your mental programm-
ing, and to a very large extent, we are all programmed
and being programmed everyday by the society we
live in, our surroundings, where we work, by the people
we associate with, and where we worship. Our mindset
is determined by the combination of all these
experiences and more. Our values, beliefs, self-image,
attitudes, and habits that are lodged in our unconscious
mind form our mindset. They determine every action,
reaction, and every result we have in our life. You can
typically double or triple your results by dealing with
the very causality that forms the foundation of our
mindset. I have witnessed this time and time again,
and I’ve personally experienced it in my own life.
Whatever we tell ourselves over and over, it leaves
an imprint on our subconscious mind much like the
grooves of a record. The same thing keeps repeating,
and repeating and our results never change. Have
you ever heard the old saying, “If you keep doing
what you’ve always done, you’ll keep getting what
you’ve always gotten?” That is very much the truth.
Every time we turn on the TV, we are bombarded by
commercial after commercial with the fast paced
“Lettering”, the “Flashing” of images on the screen.
Now, think about all of those commercials you see
everyday or night and ask yourself how the commercial
may have influenced your thinking. Bet you have to
admit, it did at least a little bit. What if you watch that
same commercial over and over again, how deep in
your subconscious mind did it leave an impression?
All of this has been proven to leave subliminal
messaging on our subconscious mind. This subliminal
messaging does work. If you have any doubts, watch
someone suck on a lemon and see what goes through
your mind. Sit down to relax, turn the TV on and see
a commercial about someone quenching a thirst, then
see if you suddenly become thirsty. Watch someone
yawn, how much time passed before you yawned
yourself?
Think about the last song you heard on the radio.
Was it a happy song, or was it a song of “Deep, dark
depression”? What did the song have to say that was
positive? Did the singer sing of a divorce, did they
sing of losing every thing they had? Did the singer
sing about getting drunk, on drugs, owing more than
they could pay, or some impeding disaster? What did
the words of the song say to you? How many times
have you heard that same song, and what impression
did it leave on your subconscious mind? Did it leave
you with a feeling of comfort, or a feeling of despair?
Did the song leave you feeling good about life, your
family, did you rejoice or did it leave you feeling
numb? What did you feel after you listened to the
song?
If I tell you not to think about your bills, what do
you end up thinking about? If I say something like,
“Gee, you sure look down in the dumps today”,
what effect does it have on you? If you happen to
see someone at work you are not particularly fond
of, but tolerate, how does it make you feel? Like it
or not, we are all mentally programmed everyday
by someone or some thing. If we don’t get control
of what goes into our subconscious mind, whatever
goes in will get control of us. Now, doesn’t this make
you want to pay a little more attention to what you
listen too? It does me.
And I’ll leave it on that note till next time.

The Brick
A young and successful executive was traveling down
a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new
Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from bet-
ween parked cars and slowed down.
When he thought he saw something As his car passed,
no children appeared.Instead, a brick smashed into the
Jag's side door! He slammed on the brakesand backed
the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been
thrown.
The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed
the nearest kid and pushed him up againsta parked car
shouting, "What was that all about and who are you?
Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and
that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why
did you do it?"
The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister...please,
I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do," He pleaded.
"I threw the brick because no one else would stop..."
With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the
youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car. "It's
my brother, "he said "He rolled off the curb and fell out
of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up."
Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive,
"Would you please help me get him back into his
wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me."
Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow
the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He hurriedly
lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair,
then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the
fresh scrapes and cuts.
A quick look told him everything was going to be okay.
"Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful
child told the stranger. Too shook up for words, the
man simply watched the boy! Push his wheelchair-
bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home.
It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The
damage was very noticeable, but the driver never
bothered to repair the dented side door. He kept the
dent there to remind him of this message:
"Don't go through life so fast that someone has to
throw a brick at you to get your attention!"
God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts.
Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, He
has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen
or not.

Down Time
Okay, that’s enough down time. Now its time for me
to get busy and make this blog work. By that, I mean
to make this blog what it didn’t start out to be – a
blog for a payday.
I must confess, I do not enjoy putting on that uniform
every day and driving forty miles to work (which
takes me an hour), getting off at 10PM and driving
forty miles back home. That’s ridicules! The air
pollution people are out in numbers telling us to car
pool but never stop to think about those of us who
have no way to make that work for us. Maybe they
can car pool or ride a bus, but there are vast numbers
of us who can’t. If we end up being born without a silver
spoon in our mouth, we have to work for a living. Often
times, that means driving, driving, and driving.
As I looked at the paycheck situation, work situation,
and the chances I’d win the lottery jackpot, I decided
to put my noggin to work on a plan to make money
without the lottery. Anyway, I think I stand a better
chance of being struck by lightning than hitting the
jackpot. So, making a paycheck with this blog is the
direction I’m going to concentrate on now.

Prank Calls Are Illegal
I do not enjoy being disturbed at 6:12 AM with
annoying phone calls from people who have
nothing better to do than make prank phone
calls. So far, they have made four prank calls
and all within a 30 minute time period. I have
my cell phone on constantly for my on purposes,
not prank callers. I checked the number through
the reverse phone number lookup tools, so I know
that caller is from Oakland, California. They
are calling from 510-712-1874, and it appears to
be a cell phone.
I called my carrier and at this time I don’t
have a way of blocking this caller. But, if they
persist in making further calls, I will be glad
to let the authorities handle the matter. By the
way, the city, state, and number they called from
is below. Get the message? Prank calls are illegal.
I will be posting this note again later on.

Look .....Up In The Sky ..... Its A Weather Balloon!
Well, I guess its about time I got back to this Blog
and tried to make something of it. Quite frankly, I
need some time to just sit back and relax some place
without the hustle and bustle of every day get up an
run at it.
I know quite a few people that sat up to watch the
old year leave and the new year come in. I just
could get interested in watching something I couldn’t
see coming or going myself. I spend enough time being
up and about at midnight anyway, getting in bed at a
descent hour seems more important than bragging about
watching for something everyone else is. Anyway, if
anyone does see it, they’ll hide it on the back page
of the newspapers somewhere or call it a figment of
someone’s imagination, weather balloon, or a weird
weather phenomena. For some reason, the big shots
have a hard time telling the truth about anything.
Its almost like they do their best to see how stupid
we are, doesn’t say much for their intelligence though.
Ya know, if we were invaded by some great unknown
force, we probably wouldn’t hear about it till we
saw the smoke rising from town. Its really unthinkable
(for a lot of us) that we are the only beings around
that know how to leave a mark in history. I dare say
though, humans are probably the only creature’s around
that try to prove we know every thing when all the
evidence points to the fact we don’t know half of it.
Kinda like some high flung college professor that keeps
saying the pyramids were built by men stupid enough to
try and drag multi-ton stones across desert sands.
What’s worse, is the grim fact the young impressionable
minds tax dollars pay him to teach – believe him.

Genesis 1–1 Hidden In Plain Sight
Here are some things you probably haven’t read
before. This what Genesis really says according
to Strong’s Bible Concordance. Between my brac-
kets is what Strong’s says. Strangely enough,
this is also what the ancient Hebrew text says.
Genesis 1
[1] In the beginning [first, beginning] God
[plural, gods.] created [to create, shape, form,
to shape, fashion, create.] the heaven [heaven,
heavens, sky, visible heavens, as abode of the
stars, as the visible universe, the sky, atmos-
phere, etc] and [sign of the definite direct
object, not translated in English but generally
preceding and indicating the accusative ] the
earth [land, earth, whole earth (as opposed to
a part), earth (as opposed to heaven), earth
(inhabitants)].

Pictures were being taken for the bank, the Old
Adventist Temple. The camera was being prepared
to a height of 22 feet, when the photographer's
attention was drawn to what was described as an
enormous machine of green and blue. A cupola could
be seen on top of the object. CLICK AND READ STORY.
Would you believe seashells on Mars?
News From Space
Would you believe seashells on Mars? I would, I
have always thought in the vastness of this
universe, there had to life on more planets than
Earth. If the photos in this website are real,
it should be enough to catch the attention of
the densest minds teaching our children. But I’m
afraid government educators would still want to
argue.

What Is That In The Dark Night Sky?
Have you ever looked into a night sky and wondered if
we are really alone? It seems with the countless billions
of stars out there, our earth being the only one with
life on it leaves an awful lot of wasted space. If we
are alone in this vast universe, why? If we are not
alone, why all the secrecy?
I have worked at night for over 20 years and have had
every chance to have seen something in a dark night sky.
I didn’t say I hadn’t, the fact is I have – and it was
not a plane. Or should I say – they were not planes? Did
I report the incidents to law enforcement? No I didn’t.
They know those mysteries are there. And why didn’t I
file reports you might ask. My answer to that would be
--- you try it and see how far you get and what happens.
And it is not the local law enforcement you need to worry
about.
The American news media has blinded people to the fact
they are there. People have been mocked and prodded by
scores of people who make claims something is our there.
Fact is, we see on the evening news what those in charge
want us to see. They feed us a line and we swallow it,
hook, line, and sinker. No, the evening newscast doesn’t
tell us everything, they don’t even come close. If they
did, then the news would be full of the events taking place
around the world every day. Even Japan is alerting their
people of what they think is coming. Why isn’t the U.S.
government?
The answers number greatly. But one is, they are afraid
they’ll lose influence over the people. And the truth is,
there are so many “Know-It-Alls” in our own country who
would laugh you into the ground. With the Macho attitude
they would display, would come the mockery of all of their
followers. Well, personally, I don’t think they would have
so many followers if people were well enough informed.

HOW TO SAVE PETROL: …an ancient secret?
HOW TO SAVE PETROL: …an ancient secret?

HOW TO INCREASE CAR MILEAGE BY 85% - as I had hinted

In case you’re also wondering, here is my reply to him.
In modern automobile tests, an ultrasonic reactor
attached to the carburetor almost doubled petrol mileage

DOES A GIANT RACE STILL EXIST IN THE SOLOMON ISLANDS?
A few weeks ago, a nephew was all excited about a
picture he had of a giant, “He was the tallest man
in the world”, He said. I tried to tell him, the 8-
foot giant he was so excited about wasn’t the tall-
est man in the world, and that there still may be
giants taller than that now. He wanted proof, but
I still don’t have his email address. On that note,
read the article below.
Click on the tittle and Read About The Giants
According to very numerous local reports, surviving
giants live inside the rainforest jungle mountain
ranges of Guadalcanal. They have vast cave systems
running the length of the entire island.
Australian Marius Boirayon, a retired helicopter
pilot/engineer who is married to a Solomon Islander,
has come across many Guadaleanal people who believe
these giants can travel from cast to west through
these cave systems without seeing the light of day.
It is believed that their population numbers in the
thousands.

How To Break In A New Lock
My wife has started her new job working at a new store.
She and a co-worker applied for a job there at about the
same time, they were hired at the same time. So far,
they have been working together at this store like they
did at the last store they worked at.
At the new store they have lockers where they didn’t at
the last store she worked at. While Marcie and I were
shopping this past week, we picked up two padlocks. One
for Marcie, and one for her friend Alma.
Sunday at work they tried them out. Marcie didn’t take
her purse, her friend Alma did. Marcie’s key was in her
pocket. Her friend put her keys in her purse, put the
purse in her locker, and snapped the lock. The lock
worked fine, only problem now was how to get her purse
out of the locker.
When Alma realized what she had done, she called her
husband, Barnie, to bring something to cut the lock
off with. When he came to pick her up after work, he
brought a hacksaw to cut the brand new lock off the
locker with. No dice, the hacksaw didn’t work. He
should have brought a bolt cutter. She had to leave
her purse in the locker, which contained her wallet,
cell phone, and keys. And those were not the highest
priced locks Wal-Mart had. Maybe we should have gotten
a plastic lock for her. What you think?

What’s On TV?
I’m more than a little peeved about Yahoo’s TV
Guide. Are Ya listening Yahoo? I used to be able
to go in and see what’s coming on with no hassle.
There was no sign in, no worries and in a few
seconds, “Bingo”. Tonight it wasn’t that simple.
I went to the bookmark and what happens? Yoho
wants me to sign in before I can see what’s on
the boob tube. Well, I did and guess what …… I
got in alright. BUT, it didn’t give me what I
wanted. What it did give me was a few misses
and slots where it should have shown programming
it simply stated “Local Programming.”
There has been a problem with them for some time
like having to type in some stupid code word be-
fore you can forward and email. I have had to do
it when I send my own family a note. They say
it’s to cut back on spamming. Okay, so why do I
still get hundreds of spam mails every week? Can
you tell I’m a little upset? Good!

seconds, “Bingo”. Tonight it wasn’t that simple.
I went to the bookmark and what happens? Yoho
wants me to sign in before I can see what’s on
the boob tube. Well, I did and guess what …… I
got in alright. BUT, it didn’t give me what I
wanted. What it did give me was a few misses
and slots where it should have shown programming
it simply stated “Local Programming.”
There has been a problem with them for some time
like having to type in some stupid code word be-
fore you can forward and email. I have had to do
it when I send my own family a note. They say
it’s to cut back on spamming. Okay, so why do I
still get hundreds of spam mails every week? Can
you tell I’m a little upset? Good!

A Conversation With Cousin
While Momma was in the hospital, I called a cousin
of mine I haven’t spoken with in years. Momma had
gotten her phone number from somewhere a couple of
weeks ago, I got it from her and put it in my phone.
Then, the day after Momma broker her hip, I gave
Cathy a call.
It was good to hear her voice. We talked for several
minutes, reminiscing, and talking about other rela-
tives. I discovered during our conversation, we both
probably have some of the same unanswered questions
regarding our relatives. Though she didn’t say so,
she probably relishes her privacy away from others
as much as I do. Or else, she would live within a
stone’s throw. I will say, I enjoyed talking with a
member from my Mom’s side of the family better than
I believe I would have from my dad’s side. And that’s
all I’ll say about that for now.

Momma Is Out Of The Hospital And In Rehab
As you can see from my last post, my mother has
been in the hospital after having broken her hip.
She had to have hip surgery to replace her broken
bone with an artificial one. Since she has been
recovering, we have been pretty busy. Well, yes-
terday she was admitted into Newnan Rehab where
she’ll be for two to three weeks at least. I’ll
update this little by little as time goes by.
I did have the opportunity to speak with a dis-
patcher from where I work yesterday. Her name
is Narda (not native to this country, but grew
up here), she said her mother broke her hip at
the age of 71 a few years ago. She told me it
took her mother about six months recovering, but
now she pretty well goes where she pleases. So,
my hopes are up that Momma will fully recover
and be just fine.

Broken Bones
I was being lazy Sunday morning (July 15, 2006),
Marcie was at work and I had been at relaxing and
listening to some Sweet Liberty Radio on the Internet
with Alan Watt. After a while, I decided to lay back
down for a little shuteye. I wasn’t all that sleepy
(I didn’t think), just wanted to stretch out a little
while. Then the phone rang, I started to get up to
answer it and almost fell on my face. Even though my
eyes were open, my head wasn’t all that clear as if I
had just wakened from some hard sleeping.
It was Mark calling (my brother’s eldest son), he was
at Bobby’s (my brother) and Momma’s. He said Momma had
fallen again and that they had called an ambulance.
He said, he was in the living room with Momma along
about 9:30 AM, while he was looking over some pictures
he heard a blunder behind him. He turned around and
Momma was lying on the floor. Her bad leg had given
way and she had fallen.
At the hospital we found out she had broken her hip at
the joint. The ball that fits into the hipbone socket
had been broken off. They would have no choice but to
replace that part of the bone with an artificial bone
(metal). She would remain at the hospital for a few
days, then be moved to a rehabilitation center.
She is doing better now, though she is worried about
her garden. The Lord smiled on her and watered it good
last night. My brother said they had gotten a fraction
over a half inch of rain.
