  • 20061017-Habeus Chop-us

    Habeas corpus: (Law.) A writ requiring a person to be brought before a judge or court, esp. for investigation of a restraint of the person’s liberty, used as a protection against illegal imprisonment.

    Ahhh! The aliens are coming! Run for your lives! When I use the word ‘aliens’ in my blogs, I am not referring to illegal aliens crossing our borders or not being hard working Americanized citizens but to non-human entities who live among us and look like any ordinary humans. ‘Idioms’!

    Today, Tuesday, October 17, 2006, our ‘elected’ leader has signed this bill on ‘tear-roar’ prosecution. This means anyone suspected by the ‘President’ of being an ‘alien’ and an unlawful enemy combatant would be tried without invoking rights under the Geneva Conventions and possibly tortured with harsh interrogation, imprisoned for life or ‘killed’ via the guillotine, for example.

    Could this possibly mean our ‘alien’ friends would be singled out as those who may be a threat to us Americanized slave units? Could this mean that the same friends (or co-belligerents) of these ‘aliens’ may also be considered hostile enemies too? Holy cow! This bill may require further clarification.

    My concern is the word ‘alien’ contained in this bill. My feeling indicates that the ‘tear-roars’ have been and may be ‘alien’ in nature all along! The usage of the word ‘alien’ is unfortunate because there are some ‘aliens’ who are not provoking and are quite helpful. However, there are reports that some ‘aliens’ are aggressive and quite nasty.

    Okay, for example, if you had co-workers who are ‘aliens’ and they have jobs to do that seem wrong or against their free-will and these same hard working ‘aliens’ decide not to continue with their jobs, would they be considered a threat for not protecting the Americanized citizens? This would not be fair and I saw how nervous C. Rice seemed when she spoke to the public recently.

    Sure, the signed bill may save Americanized lives by eliminating some in-alienable rights guaranteed under U.S. laws. But at the same time, this bill seems to give the commissions and tribunals more power to do harm – intentional or not – with their trigger fingers by pointing blame at innocent people, who may be declared as ‘aliens.’

    So what are we really up against this time? Are we really fighting a war for our lives or against some unknown forces labeled as ‘aliens?’ Has any amount of secrecy or ‘folly’ not been made public for our protection? Or are we beginning to realize that these advanced ‘aliens’ (with their advanced technologies) have decided to turn the tables of bad deals made many years ago towards their favor?

    Once again, anything done behind closed doors will need to be open for fresh air and for public scrutiny. Who knows? Maybe there may yet be a stupid law requiring the making of smelly poop with both the door and windows closed on one’s private property a crime punishable by chopping one’s head off with a guillotine. And who needs habeus corpus to bring about justice for this fluffy but facetious example?

    P.S. I suppose since we no longer seem to have any rights left, we need to behave like robots or slave units as I mentioned in my previous blogs if we wish to keep our heads on. Now get back to work! Chop! Chop!

  • 20061017-Tuesday Break

    Tuesday, 10/17/2006 was my mini-vacation or break from work. Yesterday, I had completed about half of Monday’s monster lockbox work, which is normal since this does include the weekend mail. I was pissed for doing all those credit card charges manually (by hand); one-by-one and all by myself because noone else knew how to do this area of my job.

    I awoke early in the morning around my usual time to read my articles online; cram some Vietnamese soup (or pho) into my guts as my breakfast; went back to sleep and then got out of bed around noontime because it was time to eat lunch.

    We three decided to go shopping at the Commissary and buy about 24.00US notes worth of grocery, which included chocolate soy milk, whole organic milk, 2% fat free milk; bag of oranges; bag of apples and three containers of fresh blueberries. These filled two grocery bags.

    We went home and unloaded the grocery and headed out to the mall where we walked around once. Unfortunately, we had to stop and grab another snack of French fries, chicken nuggets (with BBQ sauce), spaghetti with two big meatballs  in watery tomato sauce , and fresh water to wash the food stuff down.

    By the time we went home I guess I was too tired to do anything but read more articles online and rest some more, which I did until someone hollered from downstairs that it was time to eat dinner. My stomach was quite full and my belly was quite round from four courses of meal that day.

    I continued to think good thoughts but the previous night was the better day because of my counterclockwise feeling in about the front of my chest during a lucid dream. The sky was very clear and blue and crispy clean to me, at least. The day went well and I continue to struggle with being nice to myself for once.
