Slavery and Industrialization

W hat if we became a machine loving industrialized society because slavery ended? Slave masters got accustomed to doing no work and gaining massive returns due to slavery and exploitation. When it became illegal to have slaves, they looked to machines to output the same amounts of their product, and that's how we became the crazy production technology loving people we are today. They also turned to children to do the work…

Vegan, Vegetarian, Organics, and Food

●   www.goliathflores.com A vegan is someone who refrains from consuming animals and their excretions, and some vegans refrain from using any animal products in anything or wearing clothing made from animals.  Vegetarians consume dairy, but don't eat meat.  Organic food is food in its more natural state.  Food is defined by the individual, and what one person calls food isn't what another may call food.  Whenever the topic of food quality and food choices comes up in my daily life I always remember how privileged I am that I can entertain such choosiness when it comes to food. The vast majority of the world doesn't have enough to eat, or has meager choices of food readily available to them. The latter is also true for the society I live in. One time while standing behind a lady at the grocery store checkout I noticed the difference between her food choices, and what I had on my side of the divider. My side had mostly produce, and her ...

World War II In A Nutshell

WWII Germany invades Czechoslovakia. Britain & France tell them to stop that bullsh*t. Germany invades Poland. (Russia also invades Poland from the other side: everybody forgets this.) Britain & France declare war. This is the 'official' kick-off. Italy, Bulgaria, Hungary, & Romania all join the German side. (Everybody forgets the last three.) Axis forces go through Europe like a hot knife through butter. Nazis exterminate Jews, gays, gypsies, & the disabled. (everybody remembers the jews but forgets the rest.) UK holds out. Russia & the USA don't do sh*t. Entire divisions of Danish, Belgian, Dutch, Norwegian, French & Serbian volunteers join the Axis armies & SS. (everybody forgets this & to listen to them now, they were all in the f***ing resistance, which must have been MASSIVE.) Axis forces invade Russia. Suddenly the Russians don't think it's funny any more. Japan joins the Axis & bombs Pearl H...

Ghosts of the Ostfront

Both Napoleon's army, and the Germans underestimated the great distances and harsh climate of Russia. Freezing cold, and sweltering summers, and the rainy seasons in between that turned the roads into a soup that could swallow canons and vehicles. I was walking on the southern steps of Russia listening to the snow crunching beneath my shoes when my guide told me to stop. Staring off into the distance I could see for miles and miles. Then my guide told me to look down. As my eyes adjusted to the blinding white of the snow I began to see shapes. My guide picked up one of these shapes, and I saw that it was a bone... A human bone. We began walking around this field picking up thighbones, clavicles, jawbones, and skulls. They were everywhere! Not just bones, but horse shoes, leather straps, and jackboots. Then my guide said "This is a tiny tiny fraction of how far this bone field stretches." Looking off into the horizon I could see bones sticking out of the earth for mile...

Nikola Tesla

(10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) The Man Who Lit Up The World H ave you ever been wrongfully blamed for something you didn't do? Have you ever had your name dragged through the mud by someone else for their personal gain or amusement? Well... If your name were Nikola Tesla, the person doing this to you would be named Thomas Edison, and I did the numerology on Edison's name. In numerology "Thomas Edison" breaks down to "Punk Bitch". Many people believe that Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. Throughout school I was told by my teachers, and read it in history books that Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. But, that's not true, matter of fact it's a blatant lie . It was Nikola Tesla who invented the light bulb, and that's not all Tesla did. Nikola Tesla was a Serbian immigrant who arrived in America in 1884, had four cents in his pocket, some mathematical computations, a drawing of an idea for a flying machine, and a head full of genius...

11 Things Most People Don't Know About Ché Guevara

I t seems the days of the classic "revolutionary" figure are over for now. Today revolting often implies putting a controversial bumper sticker on your car, or wearing a t-shirt with a political a message on it, as well as creating and signing petitions, and sending out mass emails etc... One aspect of Ernesto "Ché" Guevara that's intriguing to the western world is what he represents. Ché represents things that most people in our comfortable society are to chickenshit to do. But, this shows progress, because revolutions in Ché's time were mainly fought with weapons (and that wasn't long ago but things are changing fast). If man is to progress it's only logical that the new battles increasingly be fought with strategy and intelligence. Ché Guevara is loved and loathed at the same time. Here is a list of lesser known facts about Ché. Mr. Lynch The name "Ché Guevara" is the icon of icons for freedom fighting. But Ché’s birth name was ...

Currency

● www.GoliathFlores.com T hese are size "D" batteries. You can put these batteries into any apparatus you want to deliver a source of energy into. Such as a flashlight, a radio, and toys. There are many different brands to choose from. But In any case they have the same function, and serve the same purpose when inside of a machine. You can also make batteries out of fruits and vegetables, such as lemons, potatoes, and onions to name a few. But... did you know that humans can also be used as batteries? The human body can generate about 100watts of power at any given time. If you assign one person 50 people they can then be called the person in charge . Like a manager, supervisor, or owner. That person can be more or less in control or the overseer of thousands of watts generated from people. What does the person in charge do with all of this energy ? It depends on what they are applying the current towards. Retail sales people apply their current to selling yo...

Watch Yourself

● www.GoliathFlores.com A little history of Watches: A watch is a timepiece worn on a person, as opposed to a clock which is not. The term now usually refers to a wristwatch, which is worn on the wrist with a strap, while a pocketwatch, the common type before World War 1, is carried in a pocket and often has an attached chain to lift it out. Watches evolved in the 1600s from spring powered clocks, which appeared in the 1400s. The first known use of a wrist watch was by the Brazilian aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont. While testing out his new aeroplane in the early 1900s, Dumont found it necessary to keep track of time. He asked his friend Louis Cartier for help, and Cartier built him a leather bound wrist watch. Dumont used his popularity in Paris to popularize the item and sell it to other men. Lets Compare Two: The Watch: Jaeger LeCoultre Master Control Automatic 18k Gold watch. Cost: $7,995 Cost of my car: $1,400 What it does: This watch tells you the tim...
