Dark History: The Muscle That Lifted Soloflex

Dark History: The Muscle That Lifted Soloflex

One of my favorite authors, Douglas Valentine has written some of the best exposes’ on CIA crimes. He reported in a tweet that he is preparing to write about the assassination of a Federal Judge, and I think I have some supporting information. So, here goes, from an article I wrote several years ago: There […]

The Vietnam Lie

September 17, 2017
The Vietnam Lie

Documentary filmmaker Ken Burns has come out with his latest project; 18 hours trying to explain the Vietnam war. One early review I read suggested that nothing is really ever explained, understood or concluded in the series, much like a snake eating it’s own tail. One of the most strident criticisms comes from Douglas Valentine, […]

  • 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.

  • 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.

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 […]
