“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
I hope many citizens now understand that our country has been leading a double life for over a century. Some of you may feel deceived, depressed, even lost. Do you find yourself questioning everything, believing that you have never been told the truth about anything? Collectively, that is where we generally are. Take time to … Continue reading Civilized War: Ghosts
As Carl is reportedly sick and not expected to post his usual Sunday encouraging offering this is a quick placeholder for the Q-Tree.
The following is just one person's observations and opinion - this guy. You would not believe the number of rewrites this has taken on. However, with this we begin the disclosure of why many of my BIMD stories are titled "Civilized War". From this point on, generally, the stories may be a little longer, but … Continue reading Civilized War: MAGA – Resistance
It's time to move this story forward toward its conclusion, especially with "banking" and an economy that is spiraling downward in the news. My world was becoming one big adrenaline rush at work every week. The weekends with family, friends and church were all that kept me grounded. Over fifteen years later I still hate … Continue reading Back In My Day: Civilized War -White Knuckle Time
There once was this devout Christian widow from the Deep South who taught a bunch of worker bees from other parts of the country what helping others really meant.

Believer or non-believer, if you did not come out positively impacted by your experiences with … Continue reading Back In My Day: Civilized War – Hurricane Katrina and Elsie “Ruth” Dixson; Part One
Per Thomas Paine, "These are the times that try men's souls." I did not steal the use of that line from SD. This story had already been written and I am not changing it because it is applicable. Over the coming weeks you will read about what many continue to question and presuppose that happens … Continue reading Back In My Day: Civilized War – Trying Times
If you have found value in any of my BIMD stories to date, please understand that this one begins a series of events that "trumps" them all in terms of worldly and eternal importance. In my opinion, it is the critical piece that many are not understanding. Everything from this point forward in BIMD will … Continue reading Back In My Day: Civilized War – Think Hebrew
Before we move on to Goober Gump's more recent adventures of the past 25 years or so, it is time to revisit some lessons learned through the years, some politics, some faith journey observations, and "wonder what happened to..." answers from the period. Instead of meandering prose, I will go point by point. Goober's own … Continue reading Back In My Day: Goober Gump’s Misadventures – A Box of Assorted Chocolates
As we left the last segment, I had accepted a position as Chief Administrative Officer of a family owned regional equipment related company with expansion plans. There were numerous strains on our family. Rock Star and I had made difficult decisions and were proceeding with our plan. Off To a Big Start Upon starting as … Continue reading Back In My Day: Civilized War – 40 Is Just a Number, Right?
It is very hard to be concise on such a complex subject. So, please forgive the length of this story as it cannot be done well in two parts and BIMD will be on hold for a month or so through the holidays as I work on a family project. As many of you know, … Continue reading Back In My Day: Civilized War – The NWO Cabal’s Weapon of FEAR; Plus Goober Gump Sighting
