I can’t believe how many people I know are going in for knee surgery and hip surgery, it really is mind boggling. Dr Bergman says, “The body is intelligent, we can trust it.” I’m convinced he is correct.
The doctor wanted to operator on my knees, 30 years ago, but I said no thanks. I had torn them up playing volleyball, softball, lifting weights and gymnastics. They really were a mess.

What’s crazy is you go in, have knee surgery, then you start physical therapy. It just doesn’t make sense to me. If you went to physical therapy (better known as exercise) FIRST before you had the surgery, it probably wouldn’t even be necessary. I’ve been following Dr. Bergman’s exercise and my knees are feeling better. I’ve been walking for my hips and I can tell you, if I don’t walk, I can feel it in my hips and usually in my back.
Please if you are considering surgery as an option, watch this video. You just might be able to save yourself a surgery, time off work and disruption of your life. Be sure to watch all of Dr. Bergman’s over 500 videos and get your health back.
If the NSA is harvesting data 2-3 points from everyone (and yes, they are), they have a map way more intricate that anything we could ever collect on our own. They know everything about everyone who has ever talked to anyone who has ever talked to anyone you have ever talked to. Think about that.

In perspective, 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon only requires “a link” at some point in two people’s lives, nothing more substantial than a name in the credits. Yet, the NSA is collecting data 3 people away from everyone for every communication or other ‘link’. Everyone.
Oh, I’m sure that many will interpret the phrase “terrorist suspects” to mean only the million or so people on the public terrorist watchlist, but that doesn’t actually include the other “suspects” such as those who support the Constitution – you know, like every law enforcement officer, military member and duly elected representative in America is sworn to do.
Do you use Facebook, where there are literally dozens of Al Qaeda affiliated groups? That’s a “link.”
Have you visited Twitter or Youtube, where the digital terror group (if you accept the FBI’s terminology) ‘Anonymous’ shares information about their activities? That’s a “link,” too.
Or, admittedly my favorite example, did you vote for President Barack Obama, who has provided weapons to militant terrorists abroad and personally signed off on the sale of guns used in well over 200 Mexican murders? That’s a “link.”
Oh, did you think you had to have actual contact with these people in order for it to count? Bah. Clearly you’re not familiar with how the law is abused in America today. Each time someone tells me I’m blowing things out of proportion with my pessimistic view of government, I send them the following links:
Botched Paramilitary Police Raids: While the data is extensive, the question is really why any paramilitary-style police raids happen in America in the first place. The same government that drones civilians in countries across the globe, and stores the content of every phone call we’ve made for the last decade can’t be bothered to pick up a suspect on the street instead of beating in his neighbors door for refusing to allow them to occupy his home to spy on the house next door.
National Police Misconduct Newsfeed: This daily newswire reports on the abuse du jour. Read the last week or two then tell me that the same government that used to help get cats out of trees is still trustworthy enough to be allowed to track your every action, movement and communication.
I read an article yesterday from the NY Daily News that tried so very hard to dispel the theory that the NSA is the American Stasi. His reasoning is perfectly sound, as long as you are willing to bury your head in the ground and believe every lie told to you.
The Stasi only wishes they had the ability to track and record every single movement and communication, along with legal authority to ‘disappear you‘ without judicial oversight. Where the Stasi failed, our government has not only succeeded, but excelled. Why stop with targeting of those who are actually intending to do ill – heck, even after multiple warnings the Boston Marathon will never be the same. Meanwhile, Shia LeBeouf tells it like it was…OVER FIVE YEARS AGO:
Surely they don’t think the ever-goofy Shia is a terrorist? Must be the hair, right? Are you fed up yet?
Benghazi, Boston bombings, the Gosnell massacre, the Cleveland kidnappings, the IRS targeting conservatives, DOJ snooping on the AP, war games with Iran and North Korea, civil war in Syria…
Last week my ability to mentally process world events felt like a cell phone when the data is throttled – it was almost too much to wrap my mind around. Some days I fantasize about life as a low-information voter, not caring about anything more important than what some Kardashian is up to. Barring sudden brain malfunction, I’m not likely to experience that kind of apathy any time soon, and the fact that you’re reading PJ Media tells me that you’re likely in the same boat.
Instead of spending the weekend wallowing in all the terrible things happening in the country and around the world, I decided to instead consider many of the positive signs around us that all is not yet lost. [Continue Reading…]
These people just don’t get it. They thought out names like Tea Party, Conservative, Christian, 9/12… All they are doing is trying to put us back in our little boxes. Give a name, stereotype us and continue on with business as usual. Heck I’ll even go out on a limb and say the Republican party is already gone. They just don’t realize it yet.
I’ll bet if you checked the demographics of those holding the reins at the GOP, they are all over 70 and their supporters are in their 50’s & 60’s. Guess what is going to happen to the Republican party if this continues? It will go the way of the Whig’s. They would have us believe that Christian’s are all against smoking weed for medicine, and it just isn’t so.
I know we haven’t lost America yet, because of the pioneering spirit that still dwells inside us. People are preparing as best we can for the inevitable ruination and collapse. Our economy is going to crash, the powers that be have done everything they can to make it so. But it’s how well we prepare and stick together that will make the difference in the end.
It’s not about the Tea Party, it’s about freedom. Either we are a free people or we are slaves. If we are free, then we deserve the right, as free thinking adults, to do whatever we want so long as we aren’t infringing on the rights of others. Government was necessary to regulate trade between the states. But government has never been our master and it’s time we put it in it’s place. Get with the program old guys. This isn’t the Tea Party you were looking for — it’s the Libertarian Party — the one that trusts people to decide right from wrong.
I just have to mention…
“We are Raising Constitutionally Literate Kids”
I don’t know where you went to school but we learned the constitution in school, the only thing we really didn’t cover was the Federalist Papers. But I consider school a jumping off point. Most people look at school as the end of 13 years of education, I look at as the beginning of a long road. We are constantly learning and educating ourselves.
So, enjoy your kids while they’re young. Work a little, play a lot. They are only little once, and they have their whole life to learn.
