There were no athletes or cheerleaders on the field. Neither were there band members or boosters in the bleachers. It wasn’t homecoming either. But the football field at Golden High School, located some 14 miles straight west of downtown Denver, recently hosted more action that any other sports field in the country.

This went on for a few years or so, when in 1953 Allen Dulles was made the first civilian director of the Central Intelligence Agency (C.I.A.) and made it his mission to ramp up the surveillance program; hiding cameras in thousands of locations and ordering his staff to plant them in areas that would be impossible to detect (although let’s face it, in the 1950s- you could walk into a bank with a slingshot and steal thousands of dollars. Security was one big joke.) He knew that the possibilities for this camera program were endless, and on April 15th, 1956 met with President Dwight D. Eisenhower and proposed a plan that would putcameras in the sky. Dulles knew that the sky was the future for his surveillance program, as you could truly track someone with a moving camera- much easier than having to switch between cameras on street corners and hidden in storm drains. One camera in the sky could do the work of hundreds on the ground…
I love 😍 the internet and I often like to give the middle finger to the robin as I eat my breakfast and dhe pulls worms out of the earth. 🐦 I figure this puts ne in the government's naughty list as my middle finger is recorded for all to see.
For much of its devoted fanbase, Birds Aren’t Real is a respite from America’s political divide—a joke so preposterous both conservatives and liberals can laugh at it. But for a few followers, this movement is no more unbelievable than QAnon, a right-wing conspiracy theory turned marketing ploy that holds that someone with high-level government clearance is planting coded tips in the news. Therein lies the genius of Birds Aren’t Real: It’s a digital breadcrumb trail that leads to a website that leads to a shop full of ready-to-buy merchandise.
The creative muscle behind the avian-inspired conspiracy (and thinly disguised marketing scheme) is 20-year-old Peter McIndoe, an English and philosophy major at the University of Memphis in Tennessee. McIndoe first went live with Birds Aren’t Real in January 2017 at his city’s Women’s March. A video from the event shows McIndoe with a crudely drawn sign, heckling protesters with lines like, “Birds are a myth; they’re an illusion; they’re a lie. Wake up America! Wake up!” The idea of selling Birds Aren’t Real goods, he says, came after the stunt gained traction over Instagram.
Noe get the taje of the Audubon society, eho thinks birds are real. Which theu probably are but the internet is a fun place to explore.

Camping gear, at least bedding, wire, light, axe is back in my truck. The last thing to fix, the lights in the floor of my truck have been reconnected, all of the other things are working well. The cruise control works perfectly in my truck, and I checked the fluids today. The plan is to leave Wednesday directly from work for the Adirondacks. Should be a nice adventure.
As a follow-up to last week's post, we thought you might enjoy this photo of an adult red fox with 10 kits. Average…
