Welcome to Pop or Drop Friday. Where the outcome will be decided by the Jobs Report and the confounding logic of modern markets.
Short Term First
We have to begin with this story making the rounds because it’s how the money was being placed on the Roulette Table before the open: Trader makes massive bet Treasuries will get slammed after jobs report.
This is fascinating from several angles. The first is that if the Treasuries get slammed, it will mean more money flowing out of bonds and into stocks.
Which MIGHT mean the set up early this morning (with the Bears being in control of the pre-open) might just be setting the table for a Bull Run today of perhaps several hundred points. OR the trade could be wrong and the jobs number will be so-so, keeping alive hopes of lower rates, which would rally bonds on the theory that weak jobs numbers would allow the Fed to keep open the odds of an early rate decline.
Honestly, though, we’re in the “weighting of opposing headlines problem.” Where while rates are high, we also have the highest National Debt ever, screaming through $34 trillion this week on our way to $35 trillion next. Thanks to Easy Money Joe (driven to financial idiocy by elections this year) the demonscraps are likely to keep heaping on the spending and public handouts until the election.
The real screw job will come in 2o25 when both parties will be forced to reconcile enough to keep the financial system from imploding. Which means? Higher Taxes. Yours.
Since socialism is going viral at all woke levels, the reason to make shitloads of money is losing a good bit of its luster, but that’s why we live a low income but debt-free lifestyle, but that’s a whole Peoplenomics report one of these days.
Hardly consoling, but even my own children don’t fully internalize that there’s little difference between a small town, paid for life for $50K combined income (with no debt) and $150K combined income in a big city where you pay for everything and need the dependable car, gas money, daycare, yada, yada. Back out gas, rent, commute times…don’t get me started. Where were we?
Oh yeah…
Jobs Numbers and Lying Hype
Without further ado, here is the number that the financial press cites:
“Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 216,000 in December, and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 3.7 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment continued to trend up in government, health care, social assistance, and construction, while transportation and warehousing lost jobs.”
We, as always, have a much different view of things. For two reasons.
First is we look ONLY at the total number of people working for the latest reporting month. And that’s shown in today’s entry in the Labor Department Database which looks like this. Refer to the lowest right corner:
HORRIBLY MISLEADING PRESS RELEASE, HUH?
Number of civilians working dropped 683-THOUSAND.
Second point is the numbers all have a fair amount of “English” on them, to borrow the pool hall vernacular for “spin.” In that in the gig economy, so much of the data is just estimated as well as they can. So, how many jobs were just “made up”?
CES backed out 167-thou? Say what?
Meanwhile, you see the database, now please explain how this headline makes sense, wouldja? December jobs report: US economy adds 216,000 jobs, shocking Wall Street again.
No shock to people who can look in the database, is it?
Series Id: LNS12000000
Seasonally Adjusted
Series title: (Seas) Employment Level
Labor force status: Employed
Type of data: Number in thousands
Age: 16 years and over
Seriously, this press disconnect and reliance on “payroll employment” astounds us; like all these other poor slobs are working free?
If you think you know where this is going, there is much more to consider.
Can We Bounce?
Well, that’s a hell of a question, isn’t it? If you go back and look at our column for December 14th (here, down in a ways) look at the differential moving average chart then.
Now, here’s where we were in the preopen today, after I posited earlier this week (Peoplenomics) that we could come down, through the supporting trend line (which we have) and then have a manic rally back up to trend which would be the Kiss of Death and then we are balls to the wall on the downside, likely.
I don’t know where we will be at the close of today’s action, but the likelihood of a head and shoulders top to polish off the macro wave 2 in this view is probably still well north of zero:
Being (more than a touch) ADHD, I tend to trade too early and too fast. So my outlook of the “halving by Christmas” didn’t happen and I’m not ashamed to admit that. But is there still a halving to come?
Maybe – if the market can’t get through an inflation-adjusted rally to higher than our Aggregate Index from Nov. 2021, then the odds are very high.
Instead, we will just watch, snipe at short-side trades, and collect lunch money while contemplating what to do for my 75th birthday next month. Sleep?
G.A. Stewart’s Troubling Discussion
Stu ‘s probably the most ripped-off Nostradamus expert in the world. And it was dandy to be cited as one of the few credible in the alt. whatever this is.
But the troubling part of his post on The Age of Desolation Website was this part this week:
“Once Iran enters the Israeli-Hamas War and The First Blow of Steel comes, say goodbye to civilization as you know it. China will move on Taiwan soon-after, and there goes the supply chain.”
His post is called “Right Again- Beware of What Comes Next” and you really need to take the time to read the whole thing. You should also buy his books, too, but maybe you don’t want to know how this all rolls out.
Thing is, the Future Leaks. Not everyone can run off into the Dream Realms and get glimpses of it. Not everyone wants to face it, either. Because with all the test-fitting (how do we get where Nostradamus points?) comes a personal responsibility to proactively take personal action to avoid unnecessary risks.
It’s also kind of interesting in how Stu’s work and mine are in an odd “harmony” (of sorts) at the moment. I started writing a new book Building a Personal Ark which is being serialized on Peoplenomics. Which is about how you might consider playing this arriving future. Stu’s work lays out the most likely channel for that arriving Future to follow. Which means you can test-fit both with every passing day’s headlines.
Now and then, we also get the odd “other” input – like reader Andy’s occasional glances into Future – which has a flashy day coming up this summer in SoCal, for example.
You don’t have to read this site, Stu’s, or look for Andy’s comments. But, my sense is, when you take all the inputs you can pull in, and triangulate your own best personal future and where it sits, it may point to things to be done.
Or not. Your call.
Meanwhile, none of us are doom porn peddlers. Future’s coming no matter what. How it looks is the problem. We’re all just honest people sharing honest best efforts. And except trying not to come out of pocket to do it, not trying to sell you crap you don’t need.
We have television, streaming, and social…which do a far more effective job on that score.
The Dead End Road
Well, enough. If you read Stu’s book, look where our market studies point, and draw your own conclusions, you own your own future. If you follow the rest of the herd, ya’ll end up on the truck going to the packing plant.
But the truck’s not here yet, so let’s look around:
North Korean ballistic missiles hit Ukraine – Russia prepares for F-16 crisis: Iranian ‘Dezful’ targets Romania, Poland. Not just on the War 214/7 site, either: US accuses Russia of using North Korean missiles against Ukraine (france24.com)
You see what’s going on, right? Russia is loading its supply chain for a showdown with NATO. It’s kind of like a poison pill strategy, too. If NATO takes on Russia, then they will de facto be taking on both North Korea and Iran at the same time because those folks have deals with Russia now (or will have shortly).
Taiwan elections on the 13th.
The Hama-Israel mess is just a warm-up for the Greater Middle East (oops there goes the energy…) war still to come.
Positions have hardened in Gaza now and no future prisoner releases will be considered by Hamas following the death of an Israeli hostage in captivity.
And we figure it will only be a matter of time until the Israel-Lebanon border war lights up (again): Hezbollah leader threatens Israel, says not afraid of war following death of top Hamas official.
Yucky Politics
Yes, it’s still in style.
Election year and so wrapped in a flag is to be expected: President Joe Biden will stress democracy is still a ‘sacred cause’ in a speech near Valley Forge, He’s not walking it, see the border with Mexico.
Useless efforts to make like former president Trump was somehow on the take as we read Trump received millions of dollars from foreign governments while president, House Democrats allege. Wait, Trump’s companies, or The Man? See, the House needs to get glasses. Not only can’t they find the border, they are also short the mental acuity to understand Trump’s company is not Trump the person in office.
But if they want to go there, want to study Here’s How Much Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor Is Worth (forbes.com)? Oh that’s different! Well, sure, uh-huh, of course it is!
Around the Ranch: Writer’s Night
Been up since 3 AM writing today. Another chapter on the Building a Personal Ark book came rolling out. Because of what Stu said about affordability, in part. Oh, it can still be done…but that chapter will be on Peoplenomics next week.
Also – since it’s now becoming part of the re-re-re-write of The 100-Year Toaster – I finally have what my (*harsh but right) Houston Bureau editor said was lacking. A cohesive overall theme.
Came from a conversation with a highly respected 40-year friend in broadcasting who’s trying to figure out how to retire while still owning some number of radio stations. Told me the whole concept this week without even realizing it.
“George, I can buy almost any voiceover I want for $10 bucks a holler, anymore…“
Two things fell out of that. Computers are going to make us all obsolete. But as they do, they will spawn the down cycles of what I project as the Ultra-Wave in Economics. The one that lasts 5,500 years or so. The Gobekli Tepe sized waves.
Certainly deserving of a book on its own. But first, a bit more writing to do on present works.
Don’t forget, ShopTalk Sunday will be on the Ultra-Make.com website Sunday. The three sites Urban, Peoplenomics and Ultra-Make are roughly George’s brain, money/academic interests, and play sites…

“confounding logic of modern markets”
Have you considered that “our logic” in the markets was replaced by simple amounts of data driving the latest AI being available to people with the mola to pay for it? Good luck competing against that ;-).
You speak of Blackrock and project Alladin. Its what allowed them to start rising in power as far back as 1988. Fink’s a smart guy.
Indeed, they’re just one of them players. Eventually there will be no one to sell their gains to — when it comes to selling same.
It’s not that I’ve not experienced it in my lifetime. There is really nothing to a currency reform and starting from scratch so to speak.
Our human problem has always been that we want more than we can afford at the time, but the day of settlement is unavoidable.

“But, my sense is, when you take all the inputs you can pull in, and _triangulate your own best personal future_ and where it sits, it may point to things to be done.”
Very nicely put.

“Synthesize a plan of action.” Like laying in a couple extra cases of Crown Royal!
…that would be anesthetize a plan of action…
but might have a better outcome :)
Yo Mr Narrator,
Youse missed the biggie for the muggles this week..the pedo philes. Heard wonderings and ponders regards oprah’s name missing from 1st batch of released names. No worries- lets review some EVIDENCE..
What do ALL these people have in common besides being oprahs good friends; John of god,harvey wienstein, joe biden, bill clinton, obama, jimmy pattison ?
Remember Ally Carter, oprah? Didnt you pimp this 15 yr old out to one of your freinds ? Didnt you tongue kiss Ally Carter before you sent her off to be raped? Didnt you give her some ecstacy pills to make sure she was relaxed? ALL this happened in a house at Simi Valley, right Oprah Winfrey? But that was 1st time you met Ally Carter. Lets talk about the 2nd time.
this encounter was at the Playboy mansion, correct? Didnt they excavate that property a few years ago and found tunnels where children were traffickedby the way ? Which lead to celebrity homes as well, incuding yours.
Ally Carter was invited to a “all black” party.(not clothes) but underage African American boys & girls who were all raped by white men by the way.(the irony, I know) Ally Carter was told this party was a “swinger audition”. Ally Carter said the youngest victim at this orgy partywas nine years old . Mind you, Oprah Winfrey was basically the host of this party.
Do you think Ally Carter turning her wounds into into wisdom would be invited by Oprah Winfrey to tell her story of how she turned “tragedy into Triumph” ?
* DIDNT Ally Carter accuse barrack obama & joe biden for RAPING her as an adolesent child ? These are your freinds right OPRAH ?
” This does not mean the topic of child sex trafficking regarding this case exonerate anyone who is not found in this specific file. We have more coming out. This is just the starting gun for this race. Its a Marathon. Not a sprint.

no knocks..
Seems like Yesterday the debt crossed $33,000,000,000,000.00.
But think of everyone in the Amtrak ecosystem, as example. Without the debt all the Amtrak folk may have been homeless. Who wants to look at homeless?
Of all the money ‘Merica pisses money into, trains are the greenest of easy low hanging fruit.
Was wrecked amtrak was bullshit local police who didn’t keep the stations safe. After that it was all downhill, stations closed, and now you can’t get anywhere on a train outside ny wa phlx – that’s what happenbed to scamtrak.
Elaine and I tried to take a train trip after we sold the airplane. We’d have to drive 200 m to take the train. bullshit.
Oh, when we moved here there was still service to tyler texas a 45 min car drive
I recommend train travel only during off peak and middle of the week, rode the Empire Builder that way, had 20 seats to myself, and wonderful ride from Portland to Spokane along the Columbia River, a cheap but elegant ‘river cruise’

Some woo woo for you. I woke this morning from a rare lucid dream. I had just pulled into the drive and got out to close the gate. Barney is standing in the middle of the road staring at the gate into the pasture farther down the drive where I found his body after he died. Diana is standing there yelling at him to get back in the pasture before he gets run over. I know, weird.
I’m heading out earlier this morning to meet up with the Executive Committee and Diana is standing by the window crying. She said she missed Barney. Weirderer.
I hesitated to post this morning Jim but your post inspired me to do so. I have rare but very memorable lucid dreams and I had one last night.
One of my career stops was as a production consulting chemist to the newspaper industry. I spent many nights in major newspapers helping them limp through hiccups in the offset printing process to get the 4 am edition out. These presses were huge (some 3 stories high) and a city block long. Hard to ever forget.
In last night’s dream, I was standing in the press room and the presses were silent. Workers were destructing (is there such a word?) the presses and I was helping them carry the huge metal parts to the door to waiting trucks to take the parts to the dump. Later in the dream, I was doing the same thing only this time they were “destructing” the building that housed the presses.
I had this terrible sense of sadness through the dream and think I may have even been crying. But here is the weird part.
Through the dream and even in slow wakeup mode, I kept hearing/seeing these words. “Let the end be part of your new beginning.” Not once or twice but several times.
I am approaching 82 and not sure which end the words were referring to. I realize we/me are in a very unique time in history and although there is a ton of “noise” everyday in the main stream media, there are a lot of folks, including George on this site that seem to be tuned in to a different frequency. Maybe I am lucky enough to be one of them.
When I was young .. my goal was to be the next Ansel Addams..
https://shop.anseladams.com/collections/original-photographs-by-ansel-adams
it was my dream.. my goal.. had a dark room most of my life.. and took many courses on it.. anyway one of my talents was plate making… and I loved doing diamond etching.. and it got me through the hard early eighties.. well we use to use a projector that ran on railroad tracks because it was so big and heavy.. beautiful unit.. and a flexpress..
one day a friend came by.. he had the enlarger in the back of his trailer.. and he said.. you want it.. dam I tried to convince myself just what I could do with such a beauty.. the thing new was almost half a million dollars and it was in prime condition.. no.. the wife would shoot me if I filled the garage up with that.. so he hauled it to the dump and got twenty bucks scrap for it..
a member of my wifes family was the press maintenance man.. they tore it apart and hauled it away to.. the paper had died.. now only one press left in the USA that I know of.. it prints almost all the bigger papers.. we went digital.. the past is but history lesson anymore..
We paid $35,000 for an extra-special special effects electronic device (an “Ultimatte 5”) that was hand-tweaked by the inventor, one Peter Vlahos, himself, for a superior level of performance–literally a one-of-a-kind pedigreed Super-Boxx, used for bluescreen/greenscreen video production of what we called in the day, quite justifiably, “Feature Film Quality” video production. It was the cornerstone and beating heart of our field-able “Ultimatte Tp Go” operation, and we and it were constantly busy. Thems were Big Days…
Much later:
We rented it out to brand-new Fox News for a (handsome) monthy rental fee just as they were geting started — where it was heavily used for a couple of years, then was a backup “hot standby,” still in the racks in Master Control for a few years more. (The parade had passed our little company by a while ago, and we were in semi-retirement by then.)
Along to Fox comes some smart-ass young bean-counter, and discovers nobody drawing a paycheck can remember WHY they were still renting it. “Hommina-hommina” didn’t carry the day, and Mr.Bean arranged to terminate our very sweet free ride. He shipped it back. It had ZERO sales appeal by then, and after over a year of trying to find it a new home, I harvested all the BNC adaptors off the back panel (92) and, with a heavy heart, and many happy memories, we carted it to the dump, and lovingly placed it among all the busted TVs and VCS in a vast pile of obsolete electronics.
* sigh *
$35,000 to ZERO in a mere ten years.
(During which, we made a fortune.)
Still… *sigh *
My friend still teaches video graphics at George washington u… in georgetown.. or at least he did.. he may be retired now.. amazing how technology changed in such a short time.. we use to process twenty four hundred rolls of kodachrome a day.. now I don’t think anyone in the USA still does kodachrome.. The last place I knew of that still did kodachrome was fox photo.. in Kansas.. the owner of the lab ended up working at a hardware lumber store.. he made clocks as a hobby.. and could get wood cheap there.. we use to use a video analyzer.. dam I loved that thing.. it was easier than flipping filters..
the lab I use to run.. now has a cool gadget.. you put your digital chip in with the photos on it.. and it converts it digitally to a negative then they enlarge it onto the photo paper process it with the c-41 process and make a regular photo print.. it is definately the ultimate cool.. in satellite imagery.. they did something similar.. it has been a while since i visited with the gent that does it.. heck he could be retired to if he is even still in the area .. LOL LOL he sure would be old enough.. He got into digital long time before it became a fad.. and what he could do with a print.. was amazing.. almost forty years ago now he was able to do some pretty amazing things .. with a computer and that was before windows came out.. a computer bought today is outdated tomorrow.. no more dip n dunks .. and photo processing of x-rays is a thing of the past..
William… I built TV stations for a career. I know of what you speak. One of the more shocking realizations of ‘progress’ when we converted over from NTSC analog to the new ATSC Digital TV transmissions was having to throw away a Rhode & Schwarz precision NTSC demodulator. Again, 35-grand over ten years, to junk that cannot be repurposed for anything. I can hear George groaning over throwing away a Rhode ‘anything’.
(groans for hours)
The old Kansas City Star presses were in my sector before they tore the place down. They were huge.
I rarely remember any dreams myself. Barney was with us a long time here at the ranch. I am still amazed he lived that long. I do miss driving the quad down to his lounge by the pond where we would just look at each other. He would let me get close but not anybody else. I talked to him sometimes but all he ever did was burp and fart but I think he listened too. Diana doesn’t do ranch chores but she really misses him for some reason.
Here’s a twist …
https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/immigrants-help-reduce-inflation-and-steady-the-economy-study-finds/ar-AA1mqfi2
Follow the science … follow the studies … stay in line as the shoots narrow.
“Studies” are like statistics.
If you give a think tank or study panel the conclusion (and a handsome down payment) they will generate a “study” (or two, or ten, or 176) which yields that conclusion. Bright, enterprising kiddies have been planting “studies” and treatises like this for 30 years under anonymous pseudonyms, so they could site them in writings done later in their schooling (known fact — I have a genius nephew who started doing this when he was about 13. He has “cited” “previous, peer-reviewed work” authored {and reviewed} by himself, many times over the past 25 years. This is one reason why I pay little attention to “peer-reviewed” anything, ever…)
EXACTLY give a think tank the end result and let them build the stats up to the beginning..
i.e.:
Global Warming- Man Made Global Warming: (Big Lie);
White Supremacist: (Bigger Lie);
Police kill Black people more than White people; White people kill Black people more than Black People kill White people: (Supreme Lie);
Whites owned more slaves and ran the slave trade: (Colossal Lie).
Blacks were first slaves in the Americas: (Exponential Lie.)
Covid 19 VACCINE: NOT a VACCINE, CDC and all Media in all Developed Nations Lied CONSTANTLY and Caused Massive FEAR and frenzy; Now admitted these various non-vaccines have caused MILLIONS of deaths AND more to come: (DIABOLICAL LIES.)
All the “think tanks’, “foundations”, “hired Author critical thinker killers,” do massive amounts of lying, bull shitters, propagandists (journalists are the worst, not YOU GEORGE URE), and people believe them, lie after lie.
Then, those big fat liars, sell those concepts to ALL the schools in the form of educational material, books, films, handouts, newsletters, online programming, etc., , and it’s on the MSM, all News shows, in the sitcoms, commercials, radio, tv movies, movie theatres, magazines, now in all online forums, one lie after another after another…all killingly createdly crafted to kill your critical thinking skills and separate the groups in the USA.
Then these generations of liars and new liars get their massively UNEARNED spot in Harvard, Yale, and Columbia, and barely pass but get passed so they can fill the Employer Coffers and Government Fat Fund, (Senate/House/Supreme Court) and all Fortune 100/500/Wall Street jobs, more think tanks, etc., et al, with unmerited, unqualified, cheaters, liars, and con artists, pretending to be educated and intelligent and fair and decent (do not say balanced…balanced crazy… cause they just be bought off Fools On The Hill.)
And so now we see CLEARLY that they have been lifted up to UNMERITED positions based on faulty PhD’s, writings that are not better than a 5th grader, but they are the right RACE and CREED and COLOR, and NO White Caucasian person need apply.

As has been pointed out here in the last year, those Fortune 100/500 companies are NOT hiring the % of Whites to the jobs versus their status in the population, they are being CUT OFF, AGAIN, from their opportunities based on RACE. DIE (DEI) a new and improved version of racist Affirmative Action.
All online employment search portals MAKE you state your RACE, not just once, at least TWICE.
IF you have children and grandchildren or relatives that are being denied employment due to their race and color, it’s time to educate them on their ‘other’ options.
Otherwise they will be college educated burger flippers.
The End Goal is DESTRUCTION.
So, offer LIFE.
“So, how many jobs were just “made up”?

hmm maybe we can get an idea from the news…
https://www.businessinsider.com/federal-reserve-meeting-minutes-recession-economy-inflation-interest-rates-powell-2024-1

news during the drive at 5..similarly the Biden administration will be the first one to say there’s no problem with the border..
its all made up… like bitcoin its non existing except in ones mind and a number on a screen..
Non Existing ? hmmmm
So what is – https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2024-01-04/fragile-design
dont believe Ure own eyes – keep the FAITH it doesnt exist..bwahahahahahahah.
45-50% up fibby off Lows – 60% up soonly – before ETF approval. US Govmint = non existing, Blackrock/Fidelty/JPMorgan, El Salvadore..non existing?
Dude – love the Loob scene , but You can please turn me on to what ever that strain of maryjane is that you be smoking every day? Please .
to judge the statistics.. look at what was removed from the stats..
everything could look either way..take the existence of a large pool of “missing workers”–potential workers who, because of weak job opportunities, are neither employed nor actively seeking a job. as just one sector of the jobs report that is missing..
Or the Illegals.. heck they don’t even know where they are.. and the ones they do.. not on the jobs report but lets look at the status of the outgoing funds.. to support them.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4074451/
As we all have seen from the actions of the democratic party in creating statistics on an ex president to fit their desires.. we know first hand that they can make the statistics read whichever way they want to.. the salesman pitch.. go car shopping.. he will show you in so many ways how you can afford any amount on a car.. then has the second salesman watching.. the watcher see’s a bit of doubt he steps in.. then you have the boss.. head of sales.. well we have to check with ralph.. or whatever his name is to see If i can make such a great deal to you.. BS.. is what it is.. but that is how they do it.. I always take the second in with me.. whose job it is just to keep the observing salesman busy.. and if they have to check with Ralph.. then no deal.. if he has no authority to make a sale then send ralph over and let him make the sale..
the statistics are the same thing.. just a bs sales pitch that they can make look whichever way they want.. what they can’t do .. is alter the position of the people that hit the checkouts.. the sales.. if you have it you spend it unless your in the upper bracket then they set it in a box and bury it.. which is why the tax rebates to keep the economy spending.. Reagan realized his trickle down sucked and out came the cheese and peanut butter.. ( best peanut butter on the planet to.. just missing a little peanut oil.. for long term storage) and the rebates.. to keep people spending..
the thing is the noodle.. you dump to much water on the table it falls apart.. dump to little and let it dry up and it pulls apart.. a little in a little out.. from what I have read this admin has been throwing money everywhere but on the table.. which is creating a burden for the ones that actually spend it to keep the economy going.. and causing a shortage due to logistics..
when the wake up call will happen is when they have to start refilling the strategic reserve.. what crap shoot up over night.. the daughter just told me last night that she couldn’t believe what a cheeseburger at a local fast food restaurant was up to.. use to be two for a buck now its three bucks.. plus.. and the burger is only an eighth of an inch thick so half of the meat is gone.. you get a bun a two cheese burger meal that was under five dollars with a soda when biden took office .. is not almost seventeen dollars.. the sat sheets can’t change that.. the restaurants have to increase costs due to their increased costs.. If they can’t keep help and they can’t raise wages.. and their costs go beyond making a profit.. they are forced to close doors instead of worrying about what is happening all over the globe focus should be on the USA and the legal residents here..but then who am I to make those criticisms.. just some old stupid schmuck in the wastelands that is at the bottom of that pile….
https://youtu.be/Ug75diEyiA0?si=AFpWN57wrUXPFPmx ..
think about that .. it’s a digital dollar..it only exists in a cyber world..
the only nuclear war that the world could survive from is one where the nuclear explosions occur in space nicking out the grid and communications…leaving the people on the planet vulnerable to the elements.. take out the convenience of electricity and 90 – 98 percent perish in a slow agonizing death.. only those that use old technology would survive.. the results are the same ..
it’s the same with the dollar bill.. most of the money in a bank is digital dollars..
during the last depression people that had a lot of money woke up penniless..
gold is only a pretty metal the depression in the 1800’s a glass of water was 3 ounces..a steak and bath and sex was 10..

the role in pioneer lives was similar to what happened in Greece a few years ago..
reading the Diaries of the pioneers you see this referred to over and over..
George, I told Stu a month or so ago that I use his work like a weather forecasting service. The same goes for your work and the other daily intel drags I follow (it’s a short list). I don’t expect anyone to be right all the time. That’s a fools errand. What I look for is trends over time. You and Stu trend the right way enough for it to be useful. In this situation, that’s unfortunate because we’re trending towards something no sane human will want to experience and can truly prepare for.
There are things all of us can do like trying to stay has healthy as possible (not depending on daily meds to stay alive), keeping plenty of long shelf life food on hand, clean water or the ability to make it, etc. All that’s kinda’ like keeping you car’s gas tank topped off. It’s always a good idea just like all these are good ideas, but may be for naught in the end. That full tank of gas might be a waste of time if you get hit by a dump truck on the way to town. We just don’t know what tomorrow holds.
I have been reading George’s website since 2007, and I can say from the outset, that I have wanted to build what he has built, and I have been a bit envious.
As many gurus as I have listened to about positive thinking and manifesting your wishes, I have discovered that despite my wishes and long hours of visualization, moving to BFE somewhere and getting ready for what is coming was not in the cards dealt to me.
My course seems to have been locked on to some other course that I did not want.
Perhaps previous bigger dreams brought me to where I am today. Professionally, (meaning someone other than G.A. Stewart, the self-proclaimed “Nostradamus Expert), I have been very satisfied. For over 25-years, I have been the king of my kingdom and respected by people who I use to dream of being.
Deciphering the “Nostradamus Puzzle” was a hobby.
In 2011, Nostradamus’ Dating Code had me worrying that 2011 would bring about “the End of the World.” In a sense, it began with NATO’s attack on Libya. That started the dominoes falling.
The same applies to the years 2014, 2019, and 2022, which figured prominently in my interpretations of that “Nostradamus’ Dating Code.”
In 2014, the NATO coup d’état in Ukraine convinced me that G.A. Stewart had a lock on the future. That moment was when I really began to understand the subtlety Nostradamus’ work. It also led me to making bad decisions in my personal life, because the next year to worry about was 2019 and I wanted to get ready.
That was fear grabbing hold.
That personal decision set me back a decade. Clearly, having a leg up on the future did not work out for me on that level.
We now understand; COVID-19 did not bring about the end of the world, but it was a look at what is coming.
In 2014, I began building for it, but you need a partner on the same page to make it all work… hence, “the best laid plans of mice and men.”
A decade later, I have become somewhat of a fatalist.
I have always told George that I believe that we are going to the same night school; so, I understand what he means by taking parallel paths.
Today, I received an email from a reader who wrote this, “I just wanted to say Thank You for all you do, and for the years upon years of work you have committed to your books and research. You are one of the only people on the web that has integrity, compassion and comprehension about what is going on in our world and beyond.”
And that is high praise indeed. I have more emails just like that one. And so, G. A. Stewart has also been successful too. Peer respect is all that we can hope for in this world. This is how society and tribes are built… mutual respect.
I have come to believe that this is all part of the human passion play. What is here and what is coming are all part of the stuff that we have to get through to get to that next plane of human evolution. We all play our part.
So, my many thanks as always to George and the crew here! It is inspiring. There is a happy ending.
Nostradamus Quatrain IX-66
There will be peace, union and change,
Estates, offices low high and those high very low:
Preparing for this voyage the first fruit tormented,
Wars to cease, civil processes, debates.
The First Fruit is this generation, and the ship of Doom has left port; humanity has set out on that voyage.
Nostradamus and The Age of Desolation, G.A. Stewart, 2013, Page 793
This prediction tells us that it is going to be rough sailing for a generation, but in the end humanity will pull through and begin a new golden age. Of course the end of warfare is also a very comforting prediction from The Old Testament.
Isaiah 2:4 (King James)
And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
And it goes much deeper than that.
Nostradamus Quatrain II-13
The body without soul no longer to be sacrificed.
Day of death put for birthday.
The divine spirit will make the soul happy
Seeing the word in its eternity.
“ Day of death put for birthday.
The divine spirit will make the soul happy”
Does that imply that no one will be allowed to live past a certain age … so you better enjoy the time allowed? Or am I over thinking that?
https://youtu.be/4M2vx_RCwSs?si=_M_2Uez0LphIc1Hk
I don’t know but if they continue on the path that they are pushing.. no one will make it to the carousel
well said… I am a firm believer that most of what’s to come will be the outer atmosphere…
those in power don’t really have a death wish and it’s common knowledge that a ground fought near war would poison the land as well as kill off all the wild animals..
where hemp war …only takes out our modern conveniences..pushing us back to the days of Noah’s ark..
letting nature do the dirty work..
otherwise those in the bunkers have nothing to come out to..of course there would be destruction from conventional means and big cities would look like the Gaza and Ukraine..but the land and animal life would remain

Just an update on my Carnivore Diet. I started it at Thanksgiving and have lost 25 pounds. Many of my large joints still hurt so my RA medicine isn’t working well. But my other autoimmune diseases are clearing up. My psoriasis has disappeared. My dry eyes/mouth has much improved. Normally if you poked me anywhere it would really hurt (fibro whatever it’s called) but that’s not happening any more. My skin is soft and a wart on my forehead has almost disapeared. I’m hardly ever hungry. I feel like I am on the right track for my health. My biggest challenges to this Diet has been family and friends telling me to eat differently or giving me cookies/candy. There is no denying that it helps autoimmune problems.
E,
just to share some data that may be of interest/benefit to you. I draw Ure attention to L. Ruteri and L. Gasseri yogurt- yogurt cultures. In combination (like 3-1 Ruteri to Gasseri ratio) has proven to be effective protection and shield to Ionizing Radiation.
L. Ruteri has been missing from Human gut biome for hundreds of years ?
Very low levels of it in our modern diets. If ever took antibiotics, it is long gone..very sensitive.
Personal experience this past year..we purchased a Luvle yogurt maker – timer runs to 36 hrs- perfect, temp goes up to 100 degrees – again Perfect. 100 degrees must be maintained for 36 hrs.
Hands down the best yogurts I ever consumed. Best feelings of “wellness” after consuming, and once Ms Skeptic herself has taken to it like a duck to water. So much so – that she gave a Luvele to the Daughter/DaddyinLaw and Granddaughter for Christmas. Granddaughter absolutely loves here frozen “yogi pops” with fresh blakberries all sqooze up in it.
Hard to prove with out data logging everything – but I swear our immunity levels (cold/virus) has improved with these yogurts.
Hence – you are either Fermenting or being Fermented.
Be the Fermentor .
thanks for the idea.
Hi, which exact yogurt maker?

Even the chyknees were blushing about that load of shit being foisted on the Bidenistas today. Stupid scheisses dont even realize that the past 4-5 reports have been Drastically Downward Revised a month or 2 following..perfect opportunity to snipe some mis-priced assets..
Then again they still think all these nasty shitz in DC are LEGIT.

Looking up relations between Algeria and Israel, ya find years of dispute between them. Not just recent. Algeria isn’t the only country who has been (out of harmony?) with Israel over the years.
Now, with the severity of what Israel calls “self defense,” even more aspects about (things, attitudes and beliefs) are being realized.
It’s kind of an Awakening to a hidden reality that regular folks are becoming enlightened to.
Bombshell after bombshell, and not all on the killing field but out in the public view that does “unforgettable” damage.
Life is no longer a dream, it’s a lot of ugly reality.
God seems to be blowing the dust off the table so we can see what’s really been on it.

aint nuthing purty about the above – FUGLY about sums up what has been done to US ALL.
*Remember – tRump mandating and shutting down everything???????????????????????????????????????????????
meet the old boss, same as the old noclasshole
Robert Kiyosaki – of “Rich Dad – Poor Dad” fame., and near constant financial adviser and commentator, on nearly every financial show in existence – admitted yesterday that he is nearly a billion dollars in debt.
– A severe case of: “Doctor – heal thyself.”
OTOH 3 percent inflation on a billion of assets is 30 million a year..refi and run?
Unless you already have property and are trading down, or are a multi-multi-millionaire, any sort of cash real estate deal is looking like a no-go in the current real estate market environment in most locations, especially the ones with employment prospects. Lots with utilities or resources are difficult to come by without HOA’s and god-awful zoning restrictions, even in the country. If you find a lot with existing mobile home water and a septic services, then you might go for an improvised tiny, while you try to gather materials for something bigger/better. Otherwise, $800 a month at an RV park may start looking good.
Personally, my current plan B back-ups are tents and my 4′ x 6′ trailer, but I could see me doing an upgrade. A 6′ x 10′ or 12′ converted stealth utility trailer RV would be an interesting project, but I have other projects ahead of anything like that, and it would require a vehicle upgrade to pull. Tents can be stealthy and comfortable, for a while, as long as you aren’t on a mountaintop in Montana in the winter. Ted K’s utility shed turned cabin with a wood stove would be about the minimum survivable set up for that sort of location, provided you have a locally sourced fuel (wood, anthracite, etc).
I expect with the Fed indicating they are about to start loosening policy, that the situation is going to get much much worse. So, if you are in a position to go to a cash living arrangement, you need to make your move, because affordability may be about to start taking another even deeper nose dive by summer. This should be regarded as personal survival counseling, not financial advice. As a country, we have just about BS’d our way out of existence.
Hey, there, there are still places left in the USA that are unrestricted. Yes, they are rural. Different size lots are available as low or lower than $35k, with electric, water, and sewer at the street, or can put in a septic system and well.
Once you buy the land, the rest is yours to invent.
All you wrote can be done. People, just think like before 1900’s, before, or after….those people made it.
All the people’s before this time have made it off of their own ingenuity and love and caring for others.
I want people who come here to have faith. Faith in God and faith in themselves.
Life is a TURNOVER…..LIFE TURNS OVER.
You may show up at an estate sale and the house and property is for sale and at a reasonable price.
You may talk to someone who knows someone who is trying to sell.
You may wander a little afield and find a gem just driving around.
Properties that need work, as an older person or couple has aged out of and the kids don’t want it.
How do I know this. We have done it.
IF we can do it; you can do it.
You all can do it.
You CAN.
Amer-I-CAN.
So dream big and get out there.
It’s a much tougher environment to navigate in right now. Keeping the ego in check and looking for the opportunities that wannabe big shots will pass up is a key attribute. When I bought land in the country, you could hardly give away undeveloped rural properties in this area. When I built my small house, everyone knew that that was fool’s errand and investment. Now, there is a steady stream of sightseers driving through looking for the bargain that is thirty years past. With development encroaching from the ever-expanding suburbs, I am now sitting on potential prime development land. A cash home and land is the best long term investment. Small is good; McMansions are a boat anchor.
When we bought our place 44 years ago, it was 35 acres of undeveloped mixed pine and hardwood trees. We paid $750 per acre. Now land around us is going for more than $3,000 per acre, still undeveloped. During those 44 years we have done several harvests of trees, netting us $10,000 to $18,000 per harvest.
In Texas you must have a minimum of 10 acres to lawfully install your own septic system. We now have 2 septic systems. One was for our old single wide trailer, the second for the newer double wide. We use the old system now as a dump station for our camper. Could serve as a guest camper site with full hookups.
Olfart- I’ll wager your land with power, water and septics is worth a lot more than $3000 an acre. I would expect $10,000+ and acre unless you are land locked, off-grid, with a roof water run-off cistern for potable water, and a disputed, encumbered title.
In Texas, potable water is the biggest item. Power comes next. Septic systems require between 1/2 and 2 acres, depending on soil conditions, system type and the local authority. That 10 acre rule doesn’t jive up with any regulations I have heard of. You might want to check with the local authority on that.
I love Strategy & Tactics – I have attended classes and taken courses most of my adult life.., I even apply what I have studied and learned to segments of every day life. [ Lunch Money Account Trading., for an example.] This paragraph leads into:
– I believe that the Sunni jihadists radicals are the current ‘scape goats within the Middle East boiling kettle of oil. What better way to instigate and further a war then orchestrating terrorist attacks within a country known for supporting and backing terrorists ?
– Yes, the hate-filled Sunni’s [ISIS] are now the targets – but I think they were lead and supported / backed by a Third Party into launching those terrorist attacks. They were ‘played’., maneuvered into action – at just the right moment in time.
– Several Middle East players would benefit greatly from all the inner turmoil, confusion and misdirection that is now happening in Iran., but one country in particular will benefit the most from an internal military struggle and growing public fear of radical terrorists moving freely about their country.
– Israel
[ Pay back is a bitch.]
“Israel” is a simple answer,
— and it’s “simply” too obvious.
Bebe is several things. “Stupid” is none of them.
The Mossad would absolutely pull a retaliatory strike against Iran. However, they’d never do it when the IDF is fighting a war in which they must keep their backs turned toward Iran and Jordan. They also typically take 6-16 months to plan and rehearse their strike, before they go kinetic.
I would suspect the Iranians themselves of engineering a black swan event to justify dealing themselves into a greater Israeli war, before I’d suspect the Israelis. I would also, frankly, suspect a covert op, engineered by Mr. Obama (who is incredibly Shia-friendly) and implemented by President Houseplant to provide the same justification, without the mullahs having to liquidate any loose-lipped units of the RG.
Israel, voluntarily putting themselves in a position where they can be pincered in a multi-front war, defies both logic and reason, and if things get really hairy, would quickly become tactical suicide. Folks who’re outnumbered 120:1 by just their potential nearby adversaries, don’t survive long by committing tactical insanity…
That doesn’t mean a Jew who’s so wealthy he has “fuck-you money,” like Michael Bloomberg, Larry Page, or Mark Zuckerberg, couldn’t have arranged 144 virgins and a perpetual family pension for a couple volunteers
— really intelligent people tend to be really stupid WRT how real life works.
I don’t think they would though, not because they can’t or because they could see the potential negative ramifications of the action, but because as I look down the Forbes list, I don’t see anybody who strikes me as being devout enough to seek personal retribution for something that happened 5000 miles away…
Israhell is getting their ass kicked in by Hamas-Hezbollah. They are desperate and panicking – an extremely dangerous situation for rest of world.. As predicted here on urbsurv. They do NOT have the capability/wherewithall or Warriors to finish this action in gaza/beruit/syria/Iran.
israhell standard modus of operation is False Flagging the USA into FIGHTING their Battles & Wars.
It is Always AMerican Blood and Treasure. One time, one instance in modern history can ANYONE sight where the actions and outcomes were different with israhell?
Im waiting geniuses, no, “israhell sympathizers”.
USA pop has FAILED – “Idiot America” has turned into Cowardly America..FORFEITING The 2nd Amendent.
You all are about to receive what you strongly deserve.

ps – keep eye Amish Amos in Lancaster Cnty PA, he of natural right to grow your own..and Sell it.
Light, light, light em up in LANCO!
Honesty – it starts with ones self
Some good points – even one I did not consider.., however – UOI [ Unless Otherwise Informed ] I will stick with my original outcome and “simplistic” answer. I sincerely doubt that there are any organizations, entities, or governments for that matter, that Israel has not infiltrated. They don’t like very many and trust no one.
First heard of 10’ tall aliens in a Vegas back yard. What happened after that? I Don’t know. – But then later there was a lady pointing out some guy on a plane and freaked out saying, “That MF’er back there isn’t real !!” What happened after that? I Don’t know. – Now there was this huge police presence in Miami a couple days ago. People saying they saw 8 to 10’ tall Aliens.
https://amp.tmz.com/2024/01/05/miami-creature-caught-camera-cops-deny-alien-conspiracy-police-response/
Says, 4 teenagers were arrested for fighting and setting off fireworks. – No Alliens.
Videos OF Aliens there, were taken down off social media, say many people.
Hmmm. That large of a police presence to pick up 4 kids? Cops still in their cars in their video? Only one subject seen walking, (who does look quite tall, by the way). And public video removed.
Quite a story.
“Videos OF Aliens there, were taken down off social media, say many people.”
NO they went back to Loch Ness. ;-)
Nerp – there is DUWB just off the coast Miami.. Andros Island/Bimini area – Autec, PR.
50 % of .mil on side of “good ET’s, 50% of .mil on side of bad ET’s…”scalies” and and “miserable grays”. Miserable grays – alien race destroyed by scalies, holocausted by “scalies”, genetically manipulated by “scalies” – (Who wasnt GMO’ed? on Earth) and enslaved for an eternity it seems.

George & MAJ13 have opened me up to some things that seem to be driving me lately. I’m 77 and coming up on two years since my lifemate passed. We were both Army Intel types, she a MAJ, and me a CWO4. She always claimed I had a bit of what her family called “the sight”. In the past two weeks I have vacuum-sealed one banker’s box of spaghetti, one of Rotini veggie twirls, and two of various kinds of dried beans. I’ve got about that much more to do. I’ve got spices and canned meats to go with them. I’ve also been reloading a lot; .223, .308, .30-06, .30-30, and .45-70 as well as several pistol caliberes. I’ve got a range trip tomorrow to check loads, plan any adjustments, and load a bunch more. George clued me in to lithium orotate and I’m taking the 10mg version twice daily and it seems to increase clarity and sense of purpose. This last couple of weeks, I have a real feeling like I am a busy squirrel scurrying to gather nuts before a big snowfall which will obscure everything.
Fortunately, I’m in the best shape I’ve been for 30 years. I’ve lost 80 lbs. in two years, and on the 31st I walked the fastest 3-mile power walk of the year, 41 minutes and 4 seconds. I almost equaled that two days later. I just retired a pair of walking boots that had close to 600 miles on them in one year. It’s a shame that they had to be held together with Shoe Goo for the last while. I think we’re going to need some kind of “goo” to hold various things together this year and next. Thanks for all of your great ideas and comments as this is one of the few places I find them. Gray Fox
man such a good artical today and so many good comments. thanks everyone.
first to catch up on replies. thanks LOB. i am the same. i only share a little of the stuff i participate in. women just love me. its just a thing. they alwaya have and always do. most tell me when you come in the room the tempriture changes and the room becomes brighter. and my voice. they always say stuff about my voice. i could be covered in cow shit, oil and dirt, in muck boots and a high vis jacket standing at the gas pump with a big fat chew in my mouth wiping coffee i spilled on my shirt and havent shaved in 3 weeks and they just smile and wave.
btw, im not usually sleeping on their couch. lol. and i have my own bed. a really nice one. its just a thing. like honey bees and bumble bees and humming birds, butterflies and dragonflies. they all love me. i never get stung and they always land on me. i dont know why. they just do.
also, i have heard that many times. i would love to have your life. and i have been asked, how do i have a life like yours?
i think Rummi said it best, “when you step out on the path the way makes itself known.”
and a freind answered for me to another friend who asked, how do i have a life like yours? my friend said, You Have to build a big foundation to have a Big life.
and Andy has a Massive Foundation ”
to answer N___. im not concerned about it. things are changings. i gave myself 45 days to just be present and think before i make a decsion on what to do.
i can remain on the mountain and live out the remainder of my days. i have a good job, im widely respected, there is no lack here. i can run heavy equiptment and drive trains, i have a healthy retirement, 4 months wages and 6 months medical banked. i met a wonderful lady and can settle down. and i want to. there is no lack here. at all. there is some stuff out there like being Engineer certified for long rail train and making a gob of money all summer long. i work on a really good crew with lots of Good Hard working men. and we all get along like brothers. which is rare. ive worked on some shitty crews.
i have time to wait and see what unfolds. that is wisdom before i decide.
and above in another comment, George said, “Rail is the lowest green fruit on the tree.”
and i have a very lucrative job elswhere. if i move again. i wont move after that. i know that.
so i can buy some land and do all that i need to do if i stay or if i go. i can figure it out.
at the same time as i said a while back, my path is spiraling outward. it physically makes a spiral.
i went to Arco, then down through the crators of the moon, up around into sun valley. stopped (unknowlingly) right infront of a Billionares retreat, then back around to where i live. a month later i drove south to palm springs (where 1/4 of the nations wealth vacations) up i-5 to seattle, then north to montana and then south through wyoming to Jackson hole and sat (unknowingly) where the fed meeting was.
when i looked at it on a map. it looks like a “paperclip” spiral.
and im not ending up at those places by invitation, boot licking, as a hired employee, or an assistant, or because i have a prestigous education, wealthy, have lots of money, status, or a person of interest or noteriety.
its only by an effortless on my part consciously and spiritual means.
there has to be a reason for it. because it is. its not something im making any effort to do. im privey to the information before hand and have no conscious decsion on planning on being at those places. at all.
i just end up there. there has to be a reason for it, beyond me.
and im getting closer and closer as i move forward along that path to the point, im going to end up walking into those meetings with those of prestigous education, wealthy, have lots of money, status, being person of interest or noteriety, Power elite.
probably with a cup of coffee in one hand and a marlboro red in the other, wearing a dirty old ball cap and having my crooked little grin. lol
so do i just stop and plant roots and live happily ever after?
or continue the path to tuscon and phoenix?
i dont know. i have 45 days to figure it out. i like it here. but if im supposed to be in Arizona??? then that is where i will go.
no matter if i choose to stay here or choose to go to Arizona. once ive made my descion. i will plant roots and get a house on a 100 acers and live out the remainder of my life there.
i sat on the couch for an hour with Bubba. he is a little over a year old and has down syndrom. the coolest little fella ever. He just loves me. i love that kid.
he can be throwing a fit on the floor and as soon as i say Bubba? what is going on little man? he will stop, turn his head and smile at me.
he was giving his momma a hard time tonight. as soon as i say his name he stops and smiles. so i grabbed him and we watched a movie. he just sat on my lap smiling and didnt peep the entire time. His Mother says, Bubba only does that for you. not anyone else, not even me his own mother. all ya have to do is say his name and he instantly stops crying and smiles.
while i was sitting with Bubba tonight i was thinking, sigh…. i dont wanna leave Bubba and the Mountain. then i think, well obviously i have a higher calling….
i was thinking when Bubba was laying on my chest, ans i was looking at him,
i truly am Unfathombly Rich.
especially compaired to all those billionares and power elite. the power elite are simply paper boys.
if zimbobwie hyper inflation happend next month in the U.S? how much is Bill Gates worth then? Elon Musk? Mark Zuckerberg? The Fed?
in a situation like that Bill Gates can hold a bank certificate in his hand that says i own that farm. and the guy on the porch will take it, wipe his ass with it, light it on fire, hold up his shot gun and say, get the fuck off my porch.
because Bill gates is a paper boy. and if his money doesnt mean shit. his security force and all his power, is null and void.
Bubba lifted his head, half smiled, then fell asleep laying on me.
so appreciate you all. i really do. i need some time to not think and just be here and now.
see ya when i see ya. thanks George. “lowest green fruit on the tree.” hmmmmmm.
uhem. im not privay to the info of those places like the Fed meeting or Billionairs Retreat. and i dont consciously make plans to be therr. i just end up there.
my whole plan was to make a million dollars, go to fiji for 6 months lay on the beach and go surfing, sit down at a lap top and write a book. do another website, meet a beautiful austrailian chick and fall in love.
thats my whole plan. hahaha
not be sitting in jackson hole wyoming drinking coffee next to the room the fed meeting was taking place to figure out how to unfuck themselves.
that was not my plan. at all.
id rather been in fiji. surfing. and writing a book.
but it is what it is.
and yeah, im the kind of guy bumble bees and butterflys land on all the time in the spring and summer and im also the guy who has brass knuckles in my glove box. lol and saves tumbling cheerleaders, hands out magic wands and fetched red heels, and finds bullets a month before they go missing from a shooters gun.
lol
about everything else,
everyone agrees. even the farsite remote viewers in a blind study when looking into the future about the economy and stock market they saw explosions and people in cities being destroyed having cesium (radiation) poisening.
so everyone knows something is happening in 2024.
and thanks to Mr Jedi Knight. i like what ya said about locking my vision board. i got some ideas on how to do it. worth a try.
whatever decsion i make. it is mine to make. i know i will make the right one.
There’s a youtube video about your new little radio where they are praising a “new 10kc step version” — it just strikes me funny where people are praising this in an analog radio! I mean, what does the radio know about 9kc or 10kc tuning steps?
XHDATA D-219 * 10kHz Version * AM FM Shortwave Radio Review
I got out my old Kaito version last night and was reminded how good it was on AM.
