He’s Been a Man of Sorrows Most of His Adult Life

George Soros (August 12, 1930) Lately, the GOP have taken to bandying his name about as if he were everything they fear (or wish he was backing them instead of the opposition). George Soros perhaps has TOO much money and … Continue reading

Conspiracy Theory: Ukrainians (and Others) Think…

Putin has a Body Double I’m all (about the) ears. In every iteration of Putin’s images (even those from his time in the KGB), his ears have always looked the same. I’m sure that there’s a quote somewhere about not … Continue reading

Was He the One that Pulled the Trigger that Killed RFK?

Sirhan Sirhan (March 19, 1944) In my book “At This Point in Time” I looked at Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination. My ‘guess’ at the time was that J. Edgar Hoover might have had something to do with it. But I … Continue reading

Xenophobia: Fear of the Unknown and the “Other”

Voyagers (2021) We watched this sci-fi film, last night, and I was left with the distinct impression that it was an allegory of humanity in a microcosm. Call it Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica and 2001: a Space Odyssey all wrapped … Continue reading

“This Is Not the Way to Put an End to War”

The Esh M’tzaref or The Refiner’s Fire ( אש מצרף )

Hebrew Gematria I chose this phrase for my talk with Fountain UK, way back in the early 1990’s. Did I know something unconsciously that would link me to the lives of John Dee and Edward Kelley? It would appear so. … Continue reading
