For several weeks now I've been getting error messages on all the Google sites I use. They all seem to have some problem with my browser being "unsupported". I know this is bullshit, because 1) they say my browser is supported in their documentation, and 2) it worked before - same browser.
 

Yesterday Dalebert posted the second cartoon based on my suggestions. This one is part of his new series on the reasons why some people can't quite accept full anarchy.

Quite a lot of my organizing and updating is now happening on my account on Facebook. Facebook has proven to be a useful tool for keeping track of my friends and events.

And I'm in it!

OK, so far there's only a glimpse of me for a second. It was at the illegal manicure civil disobedience event, which was also my and Otis' first activism in the Free State. Since then I've participated in many events of many sorts, but "Otis the protest dog" now mostly protests children.

For more details about the documentary, see their website at http://www.candid-world.com/.

The First Church of the Gun is doing well. We've had many parishioners over the last few weeks. The video shows one of the newest, a visitor from a far away land, partaking in the sacrament of the flintlock.

Thanks go to Anthony for bringing his holy device. Thanks also to Jeremy for his help in preparing the sermon. Finally, thanks to Kate for providing the repast.

It has been just over a week since I ran out of drugs. Things are going about as good as can be expected, although there are some issues.

Well, we finally have a "real" address. It seems that once a road has at least three houses on it, it needs to be officially named for emergency services reasons. Since the newest neighbors have finally gotten their house built, it is finally time.

The new official address is:
6 Freeses Pond Road
Deerfield NH 03037

Of course, the post office still won't deliver mail to this address; so you'll have to continue to use the PO box when sending snail mail. (I can hardly wait until we can end that monopoly!)

Back when I was in the army, I could have gone "hard-core" and been a gung-ho soldier. Thankfully a friend of mine had introduced me to Arlo Guthrie in high school. I spent a lot of time listening to Arlo's music, which I contend saved me from a life of soldiering. I considered Arlo my personal saviour.

Somebody posted my favorite skit, performed by Rowan Atkinson, on one of the forums that I frequent. I hadn't even thought to check YouTube for it.

I first came to enjoy Mr. Atkinson's work through the fantastically funny series of series known as Blackadder. If you haven't seen it, you are missing one of the few things to prove that television is actually a good thing.

OK, I'm on break.

After Otis broke his pelvis chasing the plow guy, we got a week long visit by 10 young Ron Paul supporters. These guys were great, and joined dozens more coming in from all over the country to campaign for Ron Paul. I hope most of them join the Free State Project and move up here soon.
