free time...

...it's been a phrase that i've been using quite frequently.  most don't acquire free time because the average person is obligated to a 9 to 5 job, or some version of a job that is considered consistent and stable. i, on the other hand, have not had that type of continuity in ages. and not that i want it necessarily. i'm proud of my ability to live with the unknown, although i will admit that at times i feel a tinge of worry. but my grand perspective of what's important as a human living a life on this earth, i have other things that are much more worth my time than putting negative energy into a situation that is OBVIOUSLY not desirable....so instead of re-affirming the obvious, i make use of time. hence, my free time!!

all this week i'm house and kitty sitting, which is a lovely a setup considering my own living setup...not to disclose that situation openly...so i'll just say this one word, kitchen.

tonight's menu is a variation of one of my dad's favorite recipes. he might have snatched it from southern living, but either way that's what a "recipe" is for, no?

broiled cod
mince two garlic cloves and combine with equal parts flax seed oil and sour cream, enough to smear and cover two fillets. next, layer with diced yellow onion. then layer with a generous amount of freshly grated parmesan. DO NOT use that fake shakable crap. atop the parm sprinkle some sliced almonds and broil on low until fish is cooked all the way through. generally, the cheese will be sufficiently melted and the almonds browned.

sorry, no pictures. i ate it all before realizing i should share the info. 

The Right To Self Determination

are you one of those people who have wanted to escape "the system"? have you ever wondered if there is a way to truly live under a fair jurisdiction? do you have tidbits of information about filing a UCC, but aren't really sure how to do it or what will happen next after doing it? do you want REAL freedom? do you just question the hows and whys of our government system?or your question might be as simple as "what the hell is going on here?!"

this is 1 out of 13 youtube casts from a radio station, One Radio Network, that interviews David Williams, founder of  http://therightofselfdetermination.com/ 
please watch all 13 segments. it is a good two hours of mind blowing information. Williams isn't just another one of those awol americans who are crazed from the complete (seemingly) chaotic government system under which we live. he has done 12 years of extensive study, as well as pro-active research, on the origins of the US system which doesn't just date back to the declaration of independence in 1776, but in fact thousands of years ago in previous global cultures. where is the proof (?) you might ask. well, it's all documented !!! it's all accessible information to any ole tom, dick, or harry who wants to attempt at understanding it all. David Williams has done all the hard work for us. there is the old rule, it takes 10,000 hours of study to become an expert....over the last 12 years Williams has acquired 30,000.

if you're like me you'll set youtube to play each segment consecutively so you can listen to it in the background whilst piddling around the house...with notebook close by so taking reference notes about law orders, names, historical disputes and terminology is at your finger tips. if you've ever questioned anything about the government system in which you live under then the next two hours of your life will be well worth it.
