Where I live, in 2020, helicopters starting flying over the bay & ocean, morning, noon and night! Sometimes, there are 3 in a row flying close together. There are also small personal sized planes flying by constantly.
I wrote to our governor, DeSantis, to ask about it, but have not received a response yet. Then it occurred to me that it might be surveillance from his office. It is definitely some kind of surveillance.
I didn't know that. My main concern was that he didn't remove the language in various laws allowing for forced vaxxes in certain situations (my understanding is that Jeb Bush signed that into law and Texas has similar laws thanks to his brother).
My neighbors said, oh those are just tourists checking out properties. My gut said, no way! But they also took the jabs without questioning anything.That says a lot.
How much of the population is aware of our current situation and trajectory? 30%? Does anyone have an idea?
Depends. Sometimes it’s 55 sometimes, it’s 65. I’m not sure. I’m 63 but feel more like I'm still in my 40's or 50's. It's a state of mind. I have zero physical ailments, feel better than in my 20's.
My grandfather was a paratrooper in WWII. When I was a kid he would never say what he did, he just used to say that he had a bayonet that had a balloon over it to protect himself when he jumped out of aeroplanes. He used to say that he would hit Nazis over the head with the balloon.
Then when he started to go a bit potty, he started speaking some truth. Served in North Africa, decorated veteran, climbed the Great Pyramid of Gaza in the North African campaign.
Wanted to go home but instead was flown to Palestine to help create the state of Israel.
He wasn't particularly racist for people of his time, but he did used to say something similar to what you wrote in relation to Muslims on occasion when he went fully potty. That's what I was referring to.
Ah, don't ya know everyone is a separate race now? --- What did I say that was racist? Famalam-a ding-dong? It's a take off of Rama-lama-ding-dong, which was in a 50s song.
--- I'm so confused. --- The only racist thing I ever heard my Dad say was referring to the "Japs." He was in the Seabees on Okinawa, building airstrips during WWII. That's it, he never said anything bad about them, just called them "Japs."
Definitely a sum of its influences, a bit of Beatles, definitely a bit of George Harrison, some Robert Plant, some "Acid California sunshine" Jerry Garcia guitar, some late 60s bands like Love. All round very good and great musicianship.
I was raising 4 children in the 90's so I played children's music in the car for them, or music from my youth and Andrea Boccelli, whose music I first discovered in the 90's.
My 3rd daughter would sing along to Andrea's music by the time she was 18 months old! My youngest memorized the lyrics to many Motown songs I played when she was in grade school and junior high. SO funny when she sings along and I ask how she knows the lyrics. She reminds me I always played music in the car while driving them around.

I live in a high rise on Biscayne Bay.
I don't know whether I trust DeSantis or not yet, but if they are spraying, then it would be the Feds/military.
Surveillance from planes/helicopters during lockdown has happened in lots of countries.
don’t trust any of them... he authorized release of a second round of GM mosquitoes
Yikes! Those Bill Gates mosquitos?
I like him and Ladapo. I believe they are genuinely good men.
Please leave me in my bubble for at least a day. The world has gone stark raving mad too soon. I need to believe that some people are good!

IKR?! He seems too good to be true.
What does IKR stand for? I am almost a senior :)
"I know, right?" --- I don't know the definition of senior any more. Isn't it someone over 15? 😉😊😋 --- In any case, I'm pretty sure I am one.

I know really?
Nah blud not the famalam
It won't be long before we won't be able to communicate with the current generation. 😂
Famalam-a ding-dong! --- Another call back! 😂🤣😂🤣

Lol
Where I am from the antiquated equivalent would be considered quite racist now...not that Islam is a race 😅

The politicians theme:

"I can only disappoint you, because I always let you down".
Nice! (Seriously.) --- Plus it's got a good beat, and you can dance to it! (That's a call back, in case you're young.)
Mansun were pretty good and underrated. I love this song:

Kind of like a more modern Duran Duran...
They are good! --- Loved Duran Duran. 👍
Had never heard of Mansun. Must be a generational thing.

A song about astral projection and transcendental meditation.
I really liked the opening music part. Very mellow. I almost fell asleep. The song was good, too, but it roused me when he started to sing.

I wrote a Substack post on music and cellular memory!
Nice song! I am sure some of my 4 daughters are familiar with this artist. I've been exposed to new music and artists through them.
They are pretty old to be fair, we used to listen to them when I was about 17/18.
That was a golden age of music, so much amazing stuff in every genre imaginable. Late 90s.
