A Brief History of CIA Assassination Programs

So the other night I got in a Beer-fueled argument in a bar with a former Wall Street moneyfuck I know. He goaded me into this discourse by saying to me: “Now your hero Obama is ten times worse than Dick Cheney!” I responded that Obama was not a hero of mine, but he was […]

Controversies and conspiracy surround the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI this week, the first in nearly 600 years. For years this man, Joseph Ratzinger has fended off accusations that he was an enthusiastic member of The Hitler Youth (true), and that as the controller of “The Inquisition” he sat on files that could have put […]

What Would George Orwell Say About The Super Bowl?

What Would George Orwell Say About The Super Bowl?

I can’t figure out whether I am more amused, annoyed, agitated or just plain disappointed by the way fans relate to huge sporting events. Mind you, I really don’t have a problem with athletes on the field of play, it’s the moronic behavour of crazed sports fans that just makes me shake my head in […]

RSS Northwest Research & Covert Book Report

  • Review: “Continental Reckoning” By Elliot West
    I learned quite a bit in reading this huge book, which probably was meant for college classes. Indeed, the author of “Continental Reckoning”, Elliot West, is a Professor of History Emeritus at the University of Arkansas. This book should be in an Economic or Law history class, and probably is. Author Elliot West clearly outlines […]
  • All About Ken Kesey: Two Reviews
    “Spit In The Ocean #7 – All about Kesey” is an eclectic collection of real tales about legendary Oregon writer Ken Kesey. Kesey is best known for writing “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” (mental institutions) and “Sometimes A Great Notion” (an Oregon logging family). Both books were actually written in California, and both are […]
  • Review: “Acid Dreams” By Lee & Shlain
    I found “Acid Dreams; The Complete History Of LSD: The CIA, The Sixties, And Beyond” a pretty good summary of the LSD experience, from the use of the drug in interrogation techniques used by intelligence agencies, to the use of such drugs to destabilize the revolutionary youth movement. At nearly 300 pages (my copy), it […]
  • Did Jack Scott “Radicalize” The NBA’s Bill Walton?
    Did Jack Scott Radicalize NBA Star Bill Walton? Sadly, we have to note that Bill Walton (and Jack Scott) are no longer living. Walton was a hero for many where I grew up in Portland, Oregon. He was the star of an NBA championship, which I pretty much didn’t care about. Later, Walton was doing […]
  • Review: Gold Warriors – America’s Secret Recovery Of Yamashita’s Gold
    This book, “Gold Warriors”, by Sterling and Peggy Seagrave is really, really good. It can be expensive because it is out of print, but I bought it long ago and it has been waiting in my “to read” pile. Affordable copies can still be found, I ordered one for a friend and apparently it is […]
