This topic has been intriguing me for quite some time, so I decided today I would post some information on systematic indoctrination and manipulation of society. Below I have listed a couple interesting methods of brainwashing.

Party Cougs 2

My buddy Mike and I went to an Irish Pub with a patio for lunch today on account of the beautiful weather. As a result of the beautiful weather, there wasn’t any seating available on the patio and there was a 30-40 minute wait to get a seat. So on account of 2 ladies looking ...

Rougin’ It 3

This weekend was quite a change from my normal life. I went kayaking/camping near Kingston, Ontario. There was a mix-up on Friday night and I wasn’t able to get to the campsite until the morning, so I ended up arriving in Kingston around 12:30AM, went to a bar for 15 minutes, drank two beers and ...

The face of Jesus 3

I haven’t read much of the bible since my childhood Sunday school days, but I recently came to discover that Jesus’ physical appearance was unknown and the typical Jesus appearance with the long hair and the beard is mainly a European rendition of Jesus. I think the very fact that Jesus’ appearance is unknown is ...
