Our lives have been irreparably changed by military technology. Just take your phone/pda/Blackberry/iPhone. You are bound to answer it and it can wind up running your life, and it all started out with the military’s need to be able to accurately hit a target with their big artillery.
ENIAC was the first computer and it was specifically designed to solve the ballistic trajectory equation and it was as large as a small house. Let me explain.

Speaking of acronyms that do not roll off the tongue easily, try FGOTUS. This epitomizes government waste. Give up? It is First Gentlemen Of The United States; POTUS sounds better, so write to your congressional people and urge them to support eliminating FGOTUS (The acronym, not the actual person).

There are literally thousands of acronyms in government. Eliminating all the agencies that are referred to with three letters or so (FBI, CIA, NSA, etc.), there are still uncountable thousands left.
SCOTUS (Supreme Court Of The United States) is well known and referred to often in the news. FLOTUS became very popular with Jackie Kennedy (First Lady Of The United States) when Jack became President Of The United States (POTUS). 
How does Blofeld’s organization remind me of President Obama’s administration?
A lot of SPecial Executive orders were signed in the first 150 days. Remember: “Stroke of the pen, law of the land; kinda cool!”
Obama has cut back on Counter-intelligence and has hog-tied all the agencies involved. 
I was watching You Only Live Twice. James Bond was caught trying to enter the space capsule and was taken to the control room where he met his nemesis, Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the head of SPECTRE.

I was driving over to see the boys (a pair of beautiful Labs) and I was listening to Brian Sussman, filling in for Lee Rodgers, and his sidekick Ossifer Vic, and they were laughing so much that it was contagious (even if you didn’t know what they were laughing about). They were expanding on the story and making some hilarious conclusions.
After arriving and giving the boys their attention and walks, I went to the KSFO web site and found what they were laughing about.
I had seen a version of this history lesson years ago, so I just have to share it.
If I was a liberal I would say: “It’s even better than the truth.”
Go to the morning show podcast for Monday morning before next this Sunday to hear a podcast of their comments.
What do I do to celebrate?
Explosives and real rockets are out. Even though I was shooting BIG weapons since I was a toddler (click here to see the proof of me at the controls of a BIG gun on a battleship), I have a supply problem with getting RPG’s and other HE (high explosive) rounds; those liberal reports that Mexican drug criminals get their weapons from gun shows is just not true! I cannot even get magazines with more than 10 rounds here in California, let alone grenades.

I was walking the whole week and wondering what to do for the Independence Day celebration that would be meaningful. I was thinking of going into a store and taking a whole shelf of tea and throwing it into the Guadalupe River and running, but I have a feeling that the San Jose Police and the Sunnyvale police would not immediately understand the significance of my First Amendment action. Anyway there was a TEA Party in San Jose on Sunday, the 5th. 
I wrote previously that San Diego outlawed a Bible study group from meeting at their pastor’s home. This was, and still is, an outrageous infringement of our First Amendment Rights.
I guess since liberals thought they could infringe on the Second Amendment successfully (despite the Heller decision that was a victory for all Americans) all the other amendments were up for infringement, from free speech to property ownership rights. 
Various other people have volunteered and the government was able to fake their deaths and have their brains join the project.
Despite the secrecy, on July 5th, the following headline appeared in the Mirror, a news organization in the United Kingdom:
