Dear Friends,

 

As the world turns and everyone is witness.

Setting by a campfire lazy and getting listless,

So you start snooping,

Is their dog pooping,

That’s when it’s time to mind your own business.

 

Now don’t become misled,

By a conservative blockhead,

Labor will stop the boats,

And anything that floats,

Because the scum will fly them in instead.

 

For years the elite have sold it out of town,

Calling precious metals an investment for a clown,

I’m not lying,

Now they’re buying

Cause they’ve been caught with their pants down.

 

From the jaws of victory defeat is often snatched,

By devious means the good are quite outmatched,

Don’t rule out,

Integrity’s rout,

And don’t count your chickens before their hatched.

 

Cutting us down to size,

Scrambling for the prize,

Character shows,

Everyone knows,

Fools confidently mock the wise.

 

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Ideal Government

Posted on September 2, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, ideal government would be extremely limited, in scope power and reach. Moreover, it would be utterly transparent. With some organization empowered to oversee the elite and have independent power to prosecute elites who the DOJ refuses to prosecute. Then prosecute members of the DOJ for not doing their jobs. This organization would lord over judges and prosecutors, keeping them honest. No lawmaker would be allowed to pass a law that he himself isn’t subject to. The philosophy of ideal government would be first do no harm. Instead of charging in to fix every problem it can find… or create. No ideal government would censor the people. Censorship is proof of despotism. It would be pragmatic. Ideal government is like utopia… a goal across a chasm, dug by the elite.

As government grows in scope, power and reach, it becomes ever more corrupt, useless and harmful. The Pareto distribution is vicious to large organizations… and none are larger than governments. With their titanic bureaucracies. An organization of 8 people has 6 slackers, but an organization of 800,000 has 600,000 parasites. Making it useless for anything, corrupted by the layabouts and harmful to the people it’s supposed to govern. Shrinking the government gives the wielder of the layoff pen, the ability to cut the slackers, warping the Pareto distribution for a short while. As Javier Millie has done in Argentina. The smaller the government then, the less parasites it has, the less parasites the more efficient it is. Government that’s big enough however, is effectively nothing but, a parasite.

The elite need to be limited in all ways. Transparency is one of the most effective means. The light of public scrutiny burns the elite like the Arizona sun an albino. Because they’re so corrupt. That’s why everything they do is hidden as the default. We can beg for information, and they’ll give it… if they see fit. That’s the opposite of the way it should be. The default should be absolute transparency. Opacity for national security should take months of court proceedings. An ideal government would have every hallway, office, phone, email, chat, meeting room, etc… monitored, put on the internet as live feeds, and stored for posterity and potential prosecution. Transparency that’s absolute and inescapable would limit the elite very effectively. Naked government would have no pockets to hide shenanigans.

Ideal government would enforce every law passed on the lawmakers… first. CDL drivers are drug tested… lawmakers, judges, and prosecutors would have to be drug tested as well, before any truck driver. The same goes for insider trading, suborning perjury and pedophilia. A lawmaker that’s allowed to pass laws on others, that doesn’t apply to herself, is an oligarch. Because an aristocrat uses her power to benefit the people, an oligarch, only to help herself. Passing laws on others that don’t apply to the lawmaker then, is an act of naked despotic oligarchy, that deserves to be exposed. Plus, when lawmakers are subject to their own laws, they’ll be more temperate in their propensity to tyrannize. That’s why lawmakers should be forced to prove they meet every law they pass.

First do no harm… is a great motto. Especially if it’s kept. Unlike the medical community. Ideal government would endeavor to do no harm to any citizen. Even and especially the politically disfavored. Growing too big harms the nation, to help the governors, a lack of transparency hides a ton of crimes, and when laws don’t apply to lawmakers as Thrasymachus counseled… are examples of harm. Harming the people to benefit the elite. The definition of oligarchy. Ideal government would be pragmatically judged by results, not intentions, then held accountable. Sadly, ideal government would be and is blocked by the elite as populist. By oligarchs who fear losing their privilege to steal. That’s why censorship is all the rage today… to stop any debate or movement towards ideal government.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Humanity’s Dunning Kruger Effect

Posted on September 1, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, the human race is the acme of a species wide Dunning Kruger Effect. We know just enough to make us arrogant but not enough to realize how little we actually do know. Of all of us, it’s our experts that epitomize this quality. They each know so much, about so little, they extrapolate it to all other areas of potential understanding. Which is one aspect of the Dunning Kruger Effect. I would go further. The “experts” who have all the degrees, knowledge and understanding it’s possible to have, about a subject… are themselves subject to the Dunning Kruger Effect, in that they aren’t as expert as they think they are. Because the future will prove, much of what they believe to be true… wrong. All of which makes us as a people do things that are stupid, in hindsight and in foresight.

The problem with thinking we know more than we do is that it makes us arrogant, risk takers and prideful. Arrogance, or the feeling we’re more important than others, comes from a surplus in something. Money, power and knowledge for example. The wealthy become arrogant due to their surplus of largess, making them important people, able to wield capital. The politically powerful are by definition, powerful, and that surplus of power to force others, makes them important. Then there are the eggheads, who’s heads contain so much surplus knowledge, they consider themselves the bank of human understanding. Is there anything more important than that? To a brainiac. Having been called a brainiac myself, on occasion… I say it with all due humility.

People who think they have it all figured out, take more risks, than those with healthy respect for their lack of knowledge. Someone may be a pretty good shot with a gun, but that skill doesn’t necessarily translate to artillery. You may be great at figuring the odds at Keno but does that make you good at poker? A skill or knowledge may make someone good at something, but that doesn’t make them good at everything. Not even things that are similar. A guitar player can’t simply pick up a trumpet and blast out the trumpet part of Classical Gas. Though the next skill may be easier to learn… one skill doesn’t make someone good at everything. Many of us presume so however, so take absurd risks, with the peace of mind of an ignoramus. The definition of the Dunning Kruger Effect.

Arrogance and pride go together like turd and stench. You don’t get one unless the other is close at hand. Since pride is literally the feeling of importance. Who’s more prideful than those groups that hold parades in their own honor? Like the homosexual movement, the progressives and the elite. Scientists are full of pride at the achievements of their parents. Let’s face it, we as a species are prideful of our ecological monopoly. Due to modern farming, the world sustains more people with less hunger, than 50 years ago. Exponentially more then the experts thought possible at the time. In their arrogant pride, they dreamed up the depopulation movement, to save the planet. An exercise in stupidity as history has proven. But sustained to this day by the arrogance, risk taking and pride of it’s proponents.

Pride, risk taking, and arrogance are a Venn diagram with a huge intersection. That intersection is the Dunning Kruger Effect. On individuals it can be amusing, humiliating or disastrous. The same is true of the human race. Our infatuation with our technology, science and raw power has made us poster children for the Dunning Kruger Effect. Our experts think themselves omnipotent and omniscient, our politicians think themselves the best people ever, while we’re bewildered by spectacle. So untested shots are forced on us, our kids are sterilized, as the elite replace us with people they think will be better suited to their enlightened despotism. Seen in the light of sanity… it’s stupidity writ large. Because, as a species, our most idiotic moves are always because of the Dunning Kruger Effect.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Limericks

Posted on August 31, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

 

There once was a hoax so large,

It was run by the people in charge,

Help win the fights,

Give up your rights,

And they say the terror you feel is only a mirage.

 

Assassination of republicans is just not that big a deal,

As when a gunman tried to slaughter them on a ball field,

A political refrain,

Derail their train,

And laughing off Trump’s shooting as propaganda concealed.

 

The elite sell us chaos poverty and strife,

Be a cad and sleep with another man’s wife,

We’ll own nothing and be happy,

The elite will make us their patsy,

But all people really want is a better life.

 

Mortality scares us we know,

Powerless we go with the flow,

Dust to dust,

What it does,

Is that death puts a limit on Pareto.

 

We’re all shocked witness,

Of elites that are witless,

No sense of humor,

Like a brain tumor,

It could be called the antithesis of Britishness.

 

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Tools To Change Action

Posted on August 30, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, there are three tools to change people’s actions, one is culture, another is societal and the last is legal. Few people smoke today because the anti smoking crowd used the culture to ostracize smokers. Societal pressure has been used to silence people in the face of the outrageous. Legal means are the go to of the elite when they want to change actions. Simply pass a law, and voila, people change their actions else go to jail. Changing social and cultural norms is a slow and tedious process, and if the people resent the changes, then it becomes impossible. Plus, the elite want to retry an experiment that’s failed every other time it’s been tried, and they know the hoi polloi won’t willingly go along. Making law the most efficient way to hammer us into self harm.

Using law to control people is the acme of “power flowing from the barrel of a gun.” Law is like a hammer. Because it’s literally the State using violence to force its will. If you get a parking ticket and you refuse to participate… the State will escalate the issue to violence. If a police officer shows up at your door… violence is implicit. Should you say the wrong thing, state violence will be “justified” in the Thrasymachian sense. Regardless of the irrelevance of the initial infraction or if there was no infraction at all. The State feels compelled to escalate any smart mouth, to violence, like an abusive parent. Both are insecure in their power over their charge. Which is why laws should be used sparingly, and only in cases of actual harm to humanity, and not as a means to control us.

Culture is a powerful factor in our lives. It operates like a screwdriver. The ancient sage, Mencius, called following the culture the “Golden Mean.” He said that a human hearted person would always be upright in whatever land they found themselves. Because they would follow the Golden Mean. The path that’s not too righteous nor too vile… but the center path of that culture. I think wise people do this innately. If you live in Sodom, it’s best to be evil, and if you live in Victorian England, it’s best to be good. The culture, or in modern parlance, the “Overton Window” of right action, is based on cultural norms. As the culture changes so do the norms. It used to be perfectly acceptable to light up a cigarette in someone’s house, without asking, but sterilizing their child would get you shot. Today it’s different.

Social pressure is something everyone knows. It pinches like pliers. Often goading us into things that are against our nature. That’s why many people started smoking cigarettes, and weed. Social pressure is why so many kids today don’t know if they’re a boy or girl. Coupled with chemicals in the food and water that feminize the boys and masculinize girls. As an aside… Perhaps micro plastics, BPH and other chemicals are fine, but we should have long term testing before filling our bodies with them… else we run the risk of sweetening our wine with lead, as the Romans did. While cultural pressure comes from afar, social pressure is close at hand. It’s the taunting, ribbing and cajoling we all do to each other every day. That banter has great effect not only on us but mankind as a whole.

Of course, to want to change someone else behavior is the epitome of arrogance, soaked in egoism, and iced with brilliant stupidity. Especially when the would be demi god exploits law, to nail shut the door of actual societal and cultural innovation… free speech. Given three tools to drive a screw, a hammer, pliers and a screwdriver, the elite choose the hammer every time. Once it’s in, the pliers will rip it out easy enough. Since the elite don’t care if they mar humanity. The screwdriver is too difficult in both directions. There are times when a screwdriver is best, times when pliers will do a better job, and times when a hammer is needed. To use the wrong tool for the job, is the hallmark of a poor carpenter… or elite. Making our elites, arrogant egoist idiots, in the way, and who perpetually use the wrong tool.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Censors Arresting Billionaires

Posted on August 29, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, with the arrest of the billionaire founder of whatever a gram, the elite have gone all in on censoring our speech… how Orwellian of them. The very people who slandered those who said Covid came from a lab in Wuhan, as conspiracy theorists, and demanded people take a shot with deadly side effects, are jailing those who told the truth… to protect us from “misinformation.” We all know where this is going…. they want to terrorize other rich guys, so they’ll censor us. Zuckerberg’s mea culpa was as honest as a con man’s pitch. Distributed knowledge be damned. You have to admit though, anyone so omniscient, smart and wise, they can effectively censor for the best interest of humanity… are few and far between. And they ain’t our elites.

For anyone to censor another requires the censor be omniscient. The censor must know all things even those items that are within the realm of distributed knowledge. To be that aware would take a “brain the size of a planet.” One would think such a feat beyond the capability of any human being. Even any group of human beings… no matter how intelligent and learned. They can be as smart as a burn but omniscience is beyond us. Moreover, anyone that smart, would be smart enough to know better than to assume to be the arbiter of truth. Especially since in a hundred years or less, everything we take as truth will be laughed at as witchcraft. Like we laugh at the experts of the past who used leeches and mercury as medicine. So even today’s omniscient sage will be tomorrow’s fool.

If we look at the history of censorship, not only is it always used to promote a political faction, but the censors are always tragically wrong in their assessment of disinformation and misinformation. Costing human lives. Even one error from a censor discredits them as a censor. In the case of Covid, the censors called any talk of the Wuhan flu coming from a lab as dangerous disinformation, racist even. Now we know the Wuhan laboratory doing gain of function on bat corona viruses was probably the cause… not a randy pangolin. Then, the same people jailing what’s his name, forced us to take an untested shot with untested technology… no way that could go right. Turns out, it didn’t go right. Millions are dead and wounded from the side effects of that “mistake,” of the censors. Utterly discrediting them.

Can you imagine the absolute arrogance, self blindness and stupidity of a censor that, after being so drastically wrong before, costing millions their lives, would double down and arrest someone who refused to censor at their demand? The arrogance of such a person is off the chart. Arrogance driven by a lack of empathy. It’s not like they didn’t know what they were doing at the time. The he she public health commissioner, a four star admiral, removed he she’s mother from nursing care… before infecting it with Covid patients. They cared enough about their own parents to protect them… just not yours. Most self aware people would shrink away, ashamed at being exposed as so mortally wrong in their censorship… they wouldn’t arrest someone who refused to go along. That’s just stupid.

Most people require the media’s permission before being outraged at the outrageous. With the media’s urging however, even the normal can trigger outrage. Which is one reason the elite so like censorship as a political tool. The arrest of some rich guy to force other rich guys to participate in their censorship, shows arrogance, self blindness and stupidity, that astonishes the sane. It’s irrational. We saw how wrong they were about Covid, the “vaccine,” ivermectin and Jan 6th. Now the censor’s lies have caught up with them and they’re lashing out. One has to wonder the magnitude of the crimes they’re covering up… since they’re willing to cause millions of deaths worldwide, to cover it up. What worse things are the censors hiding, with their lawfare and censorship… that they’ve become so unhinged?

Sincerely,

John Pepin

The Moral High Ground

Posted on August 28, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, leftists consider themselves on the moral high ground, as they defend the gutter. On every question the progressive faction takes the Malthusian anti human side. While claiming to defend humanity. A normal person can’t imagine acting and speaking in such opposition. It would psychically rip a regular person in half. The elitist progressive elite however have evolved beyond the mere need for cognitive resonance. They consider themselves to be Nietzsche’s Ubermen. Morality is what they say it is, enforced by their willingness to use violence to silence. Because in the fevered fantasies of the favored, whatever they want is moral, no matter how heinous it is. Since they’re the elite and anything the elite want, is by Thrasymachus’ definition… moral.

If the goal is a utopia that’s so great, it makes the dead in heaven want to come back, no atrocity is out of bounds. In that case, defending the immoral, to create the super moral, must be moral? Wouldn’t it? No way such an argument could be considered circular could it? Nevertheless, that’s effectively the justification a myriad of tyrants have used to rationalize their atrocities. “We’re getting our hands dirty today but the future will thank us.” Is as circular as a tire. Who considers the Nazis heroes? Or the Young Turks? Other than psychopaths who want to repeat their atrocities. Because no theoretical future utopia justifies atrocities today. The means taint the ends. Moreover, only evil ends require evil means, no matter how pretty it may sound. The ends never elevate evil means to the moral high ground.

The self justification of the progressive movement is amazing in its lack of self awareness. The self blind self justifying is like the blind running a steeplechase full bore. There’s no way it doesn’t end in an emergency room visit. I suppose that’s what becomes of a person who lives in an echo chamber atop an ivory tower. Without input from society they become ever less rational. Thus forcing go alongers to go along. Openly avowing the things they once claimed they despised. To go along with the elite’s self justification. Meanwhile, the rest of us look at them and the elite leading them to absurdity, with absolute astonishment. Like when they take private jets to Davos to discuss how to limit our use of fossil fuels. Believing that gives them the moral high ground. Talk about a lack of self awareness.

In every question, the progressive globalist faction takes the anti human one. They staunchly advocate for the sterilization of children on a whim, abortion to birth (and after to be honest), making people dependent on the state, claiming there’s over population, etc… There’s not one stance of the left today that would result in more people, less war and more wealth. Every position they take drains the wealth, population and humanity from the world… in an effort to make it better. Their foundational ethos is, the less people the better. They as much as said so on the Georgia Guide stones before someone blew them up. Right under the watchful gaze of 24/7 cameras. Like Epstein’s “suicide.” Let’s face it, taking the position there needs to be less people… isn’t the moral high ground.

If you or I had pushed for more taxes our entire careers in government, then were caught cheating on our taxes, the hypocrisy would make us flee the lime light, like Golum. Were we to find ourselves in the position of defending pedophilia, you and I would reassess our position. If we demanded people get a shot, and prove it before traveling, then discovered that shot had killed millions with little if any protection… you or I would not only be shamed to oblivion, but prosecuted to life in prison. Then there’s the censorship, in the name of stopping mis and disinformation. Censorship that killed people because it stifled the truth. In each case the elite defended the immoral, as their lackeys in the mockingbird media knighted them, as taking the moral high ground. Showing who we can’t trust.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Limericks

Posted on August 27, 2024 by john

Dear Friends, 

 

You can walk around talking till you have a great tan,

Speaking from the heart and earnestly man to man,

They dislike what you say,

Though you keep at it all day,

But you’re not in the sun when you’re under a shadow ban.

 

The elite are swaddled in sweat and fear,

Making the world like a cigarette in beer,

Try to be wise,

Don’t believe the lies,

And they won’t stop till the End Times are here.

 

There once was an elite hypocritical,

Claiming banning their foes apolitical,

Don’t live in a cave,

There’s a coming wave,

Of outlawing ideas and that’s not hypothetical.

 

People follow their leaders or so Confucius said,

Into virtue or vice by the elite the people are led,

Do as they say,

The despot’s way,

But nature can’t be denied since our world to it is wed.

 

As long as weak innocent people are murdered it’s fine,

It protects democracy leftist power and the narrative’s line,

Here them roar,

Stab some more,

And it’ll be just great until progressives taste their own wine.

 

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Power Without Consequence

Posted on August 26, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, elitists are fervently making the claim, giving a tiny cadre of people unlimited power over the rest of us, power without consequence if you will, globally, will result in a good outcome for humanity. Resulting in a global utopia like Star Trek. I disagree. If anyone is given unlimited power without consequences, it will result in Hell on Earth. Moreover, history suggests I’m right, and the elite are wrong. I’m sure there are plenty of elites, and experts, who earnestly believe that elitism is the solution to the problems elitism has visited on us. People who are driven by the goal of a Star Trek like utopia, and for such a worthy destination, would commit any atrocity. Because heaven is on the other side of that door. I’m arguing hell is on the other side… not heaven.

Human nature is like water, it takes the easiest path into the ground. Only when it sets in clay does it stay puddled. Clay represents consequences for wrong action. Sand is a total lack of consequences. No drop once landing in sand can resist immediately seeping into it. Even the saints, like Augustine, admitted this. Our nature is to seep into the ground. Staying puddled at the surface, or in other words, moral acting, takes clay. Consequences for actions, cultural, social and legal. Cultural first, social next and finally after much deliberation, legal. The elitist would like to fashion a stainless steel bowl for the rest of us while lounging in sand. Yet fail to understand the power of leading by example. Their example is our goal… into virtue or vice. Regardless of the vessel holding us back.

People aren’t angels and unlimited power always proves it. Power without consequence is like sand to the soul. Moreover it’s hydrophilic sand. No matter how honest the drop is, the moment it hits the sand it seeps in. No human being can resist the sponge of power without consequence. History is nothing but a litany of examples. Nero, Tamerlane, and Mao to name a few. To not understand this basic quality of human nature exhibits a supreme lack of wisdom. It’s in fact stupidity writ large. So the people who believe in elitism, earnestly, pathologically or manipulatively, are too unwise to run a race, let alone the world, economy and everyone’s life. Allowing such people to have and keep unlimited power without consequence would be stupid of us.

What we have then are stupid people, willing to commit any atrocity to get their utopia, in charge of the world today. We know they’re elitists because they denigrate and vilify populism. Using the term as a pejorative. Further, proving their stupidity by censoring opinions they disagree with. Exposing their utter lack of self awareness. Only someone self blind, arrogant and stupid has the supreme egoism to presume to censor another. Then there’s the pragmatic argument of outcome. The results of the last few years of administrative state rule have delivered war, inflation, crime, a drug overdose death crisis, invasion and cultural collapse. Pragmatically, the people in charge have failed. They’ve failed by every measure, so pragmatically, they need to go.

Cultural, social and legal consequences are a feedback that keep us from becoming too pathological. They’re the clay. Unlimited power by definition turns it to sand. As consequences have been removed from our elites today. They’ve become stupid people who censor the opinions of wiser people, to further their aim of a Star Trek style utopia. A goal that’s so great it justifies any atrocity. The elite today exist in sand as they fashion a steel bowl of surveillance for us. Believing it’ll hold us, while they fulfill their most heinous fantasies… like Caligula. Let’s use some bentonite… to limit their power without consequence. There are cultural consequences for pedophilia, social consequences for narcissism, and legal ones for crime. Apply them to get rid of the stupid criminal failures.

Sincerely,

John Pepin

Unrealized Capital Gains Tax

Posted on August 25, 2024 by john

Dear Friends,

It seems to me, passing an unrealized capital gains tax would do to the economy, what a person guzzling a gallon of drain cleaner would do to their body. The damage is unthinkable. Yet we have a political faction that claims such a tax would somehow benefit mankind. The people who epitomize hypocrisy as a virtue, believe themselves the best arbiter of what everything is worth… not mark to market, but their learned opinion. As they did in the Trump trial charging him with over pricing his assets put up for collateral. Presumably they would value the assets the same if he would be taxed the assumed capital gain? Probably not though. Trump wouldn’t be the only victim of this abuse… you and I would be at the front of the line, while the elite wouldn’t be subject to it. Pigs get to sleep in beds.

The tax would be utterly subjective. Because without an actual sale of an asset, by a willing seller to a willing buyer, no expert can reliably come up with an actual cash value for anything. All assessments are guesses and not actual value. Only the free market can assign an objective cash value to anything. Any other assessment is subjective. Therefore any tax on unsold property, capital or assets, will by definition be subjective… not objective. Thus open to political favor. What an unrealized capital gains tax would be then, is a way for the politically powerful to steal the wealth of the weak, for their own use. Because, under any subjective system of taxation the politically favored will avoid the tax and only the disfavored or ignored will be subject, to a subjective tax.

Such a tax could only be arbitrarily applied. What property is subject to the tax? What capital is subjectively valued by the government for taxation purposes? Moreover, Who’s assets are taxed? You can bet, there will be so many loopholes for the favored to get through, the law will be more of a noose than a barrier. A noose that snags small fish but allows the big ones to pass through. Because the wealthy will use accountants, lawyers and fraud to get around it. The government has already got rid of the once a lifetime capital gain exemption. In their greed the elite want to take our property and profits, before we have even made them… forcing us to sell them to pay the unrealized capital gains tax. Which creates a negative incentive to own property… which may be the plan all along.

Taking what hasn’t been earned, to pay for interest on borrowed spending, is lighting a funeral pyre from the top. Taking money that hasn’t been made requires the taxed to come up with the money… like a flunky for the Salamanca family. If we don’t have the money, in their magnanimous charity, the bureaucrats will take a pound of flesh instead. Which can only result in waves of bankruptcies. As property floods the market to pay the tax, the value of property will drop. The tax still must be paid, even on property that’s dropped in value, because during the period of assessment it had a subjective gain. Resulting in people paying more in tax then their property is worth. Which will cause more waves of bankruptcies, triggering even more economic collapse.

The only reason to do such a suicidal thing, as pass an unearned capital gains tax… is to bankrupt the people, wipe out businesses and burn down the economy. To manipulate us into socialism maybe? Once the initial wave of bankruptcies runs through the economy, (to pay the tax) and the value of property has been eroded by the negative incentives of the tax, government could use the money they collected before collapsing the property market… and buy all the property for a song. No one will own anything. Except the elite. Who will own everything under the guise of collective ownership. So I guess the idea of an unearned capital gains tax, does make sense… to a demon who seeks to be the despotic ruler of the world. Rational people on the other hand… don’t drink drain cleaner.

Sincerely,

John Pepin
