Highwire ~ Rolling Stones
We sell 'em missiles, We sell 'em tanks
We give 'em credit, You can call up the bank
It's just a business, You can pay us in crude
You’ll love these toys, just go play out your feuds
We got no pride, don't know whose boots to lick
We act so greedy, makes me sick sick sick
So get up, stand up, out of my way
I wanna talk to the boss right away
Get up, stand up, who's gonna pay
I wanna talk to the man right away
We walk the highwire
Sending men to the front line
And hoping they don't catch the hell-fire
Of hot guns and cold, cold lies
We walk the highwire
Send the men to the front lines
And tell 'em to hotbed the sunshine
With hot guns and cold, cold lies
Our lives are threatened, our jobs at risk
Sometimes dictators need a slap on the wrist
Another Munich we just can't afford
We're gonna send in the 82nd Airborne
Get up, stand up, who's gonna pay
I wanna talk to the boss right away
Get up, stand up, outta my way
I wanna talk to the man right away
We walk the highwire
Putting the world out on a dead lie
And hoping they don't taste the shell-fire
Of hot guns and cold, cold lies
We walk the highwire
Putting the world out on a dead lie
Catching the fight on the primetime
With hot guns and cold, cold lies
Get up! Stand up!
Dealer! Stealer!
Hey!
We walk the highwire
Sending men to the front line
And hoping that we backed the right side
With hot guns and cold, cold lies
We walk the highwire
Sending men to the front line
And hoping they don't catch the hell-fire
With hot guns and cold, cold, cold, cold, cold lies
We walk the highwire
We walk the highwire
With hot guns and cold, cold, cold lies.

I’ve been writing this blog over the last 2 days, most of it written yesterday. I say this for no other reason than I like to keep records straight. Phrases like “this morning” mean yesterday morning.
Well I don’t even know where to begin. I guess with the owl. The long way round.

I was so tired today I had a little nap at my desk. While I was sleeping I had two very short dreams as it was a very short nap, less than 5 minutes. The first one was about a warehouse of some sort. It was a light colour, cream maybe or a very pale yellow, and it was divided into 3 sections. I was floating around up near the roof with somebody else, a woman, who was behind me, that means you lol. In the section to our right were two tanks with big guns pointed out the opening of a huge door. The section we were in was full of headstones, lots and lots of headstones, and it looked like trucks were bringing in more. That was all of that one.
In the second one I saw an owl, nothing else around it, just an owl. It was rotating slowly and when it turned sideways it suddenly was a rooster but its feathers were such bright colours and quite a bit bigger than in waking life. They looked like they were made of wooden biscuits and very, very bright. All colours too. Then I woke up again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On March 31st I posted about a cabin I frequent in my dreams and on April 2 a dream about Smarties which led to talk of hexagons.
On April 4 I began writing a blog about Chateau Montebello and it has remained in the Blogs in Progress folder for the last 4 months. Although this place sounded like a location I needed to learn more about, I had gone as far as I could, nothing more was coming to me, other things came up, so there it sat. Until this morning.

Tensions rise in Montebello
Monday, 1:10 p.m. Riot police deployed, protestors push limits near summit site
By SUN MEDIA, WIRES
Tensions are rapidly heating up around Montebello as noisy, agitated protesters continue to arrive and riot police have been deployed outside the summit site.
Increasingly noisy protesters are demanding their concerns be heard, and their petitions accepted, by North American leaders scheduled to begin meeting at the Chateau Montebello this afternoon.
http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2007/08/20/4432308.html
I didn’t even know there was a summit meeting going on and I sure didn’t know it was going on at Montebello. Just last week I watched a You Tube video with a guy talking about the Amero and how it will dissolve the borders of North America. I have a very strong feeling this is exactly what is being discussed, the amalgamation of North America. On paper. Since it’s already happened.
This is how that whole story began.

I'm in the middle of writing a blog about this hotel. BWB didn't know about the hexagon thing or that I recently posted about the cabin. This morning he just happens to see a show about this hotel in Quebec called the Montebello that is supposed to be the biggest log cabin in the world. He could hardly wait for me to get up to show me the pictures he found lol. It is a really cool place but the hexagon shaped fireplace in the hexagon shaped rotunda and the fact it's surrounded by 65,000 acres of forest really has me thinking. And since it's a hotel that means it has a lot of bedrooms. Then I read they had a bilderberg meeting there and said EEEEEEEKKK so I've been investigating this hotel lol. My conclusions are it's the bohemian grove of Canada.
It was built in 3 months right in the middle of the depression. There seemed to be no lack of money or resources to build this thing while everybody else was starving and killing themselves. Construction started in February of 1930 and the place was open by July 1st the same year. And not only is the fireplace a hexagon but the entire hotel is a 6-pointed star design. The rotunda is in the middle and six wings jut out from the centre portion so that's kind of odd.
Something big is coming here for us I fear. There's just too much coming up with Canada lately and especially July 1, it's popping up all over the place and keeps taking me back to the dream with the big Canadian flag. Maybe we're going to lose our flag?
And this is how the blog began:
April 4, 2007
I thought I was up on all my CP Hotel history but apparently not. Being some of the most magnificent and significant architecture in the country, and architecture being a fascination of mine, I really thought I had heard of them all. I’ve actually made it a mission to try and visit each one some day and so far I’m doing not too bad. I guess I better learn where they all are before I venture any further. A bit about the place:
The centerpiece of the new log-château was a hexagonal rotunda, containing a six-sided stone fireplace that rose more than 20 metres (66 feet) to the roof, soaring rafters featuring logs 18 metres (60 feet) long, and two mezzanines that completely encircled the rotunda. The 186 guest rooms were contained in four wings that fanned out from the rotunda, with additional wings for the dining room and the ballroom. The newly constructed buildings on the site contained 10,000 logs, 500,000 hand-slit cedar roof shakes and 166 kilometres of wooden moulding.
The club was an architectural marvel, and as intended, it drew a prestigious guest list, which included Prime Ministers and Governors General, Crown Prince Akihito of Japan, Harry S. Truman, Prince Ranier and Princess Grace of Monaco, Princess Juliana of the Netherlands, Bing Crosby, Perry Como, Bette Davis, and Joan Crawford.
Bilderberg was last held in this region in 1983, when the conference came to the Chateau Montebello in West Quebec. Then, with Ronald Reagan occupying the White House and Yuri Andropov the Kremlin, the East-West divide was the top issue on the table.

And now President Felipe Calderon has to cut his visit short because of Dean. How convenient. I don’t know why that would be convenient, it just seemed like the right thing to say.
What makes this a little more peculiar is after posting the last blog, we literally hopped in the truck for a weekend in the wilderness of the Rockies. On the way home I got a notion to stop at Lake Louise, home of yet another magnificent CP Hotel, Chateau Lake Louise. And although I have been there many times, I can honestly say not one other trip equaled this one or even came close to the weirdness that went on this weekend.
One cool thing that happened is I had my second brush with greatness. My first was with Eddie Shack somewhere around 1970 to 1972 when he played with the Buffalo Sabres. I was due for another. On the path around the shore of Lake Louise we had the pleasure of meeting Jay Ingram.
One of Canada's best-known science popularizers, Jay Ingram is co-host and producer of Daily Planet, television's first daily science show.
He joined Discovery in November 1994 and was instrumental in helping shape the program format.
From September, 1979 to January, 1992, Jay hosted CBC Radio's science program Quirks And Quarks. During that time, he earned two ACTRA Awards, including one for Best Host.
During the '80s, Jay was also Contributing Editor to Owl Magazine.

And a weird thing that happened was my recent awareness of some of the names given to lakes, rivers, creeks and mountains in the neighbourhood. The last excursion brought my attention to Nixon Creek near Crook Mountain. Keep in mind Natives, explorers and adventurers named these places a long time ago. This most recent trip was a drive along Bush River Road. With the thought in mind that this river was named for its surroundings, since there’s deep thick bush a-plenty, until I came across Jeb lake did the other bush even occur to me. Then I started noticing other places all within the area we were traveling.
Bush Mountain
Ego Mountain
Goat Peak
Jeb Lake
Blackwater Creek
Rice Brook
Rice Glacier
Mount Columbia
And I swear there’s even a Camp David. Most likely a logging camp and not to be confused with the fortress of the same name.

Stage Left
Now I’m at work and a co-worker related a story of a woman killed by a tree this weekend in a nearby town. I’ve often thought that’s how I would go since I tend to waste a lot of paper. The co-worker was of the opinion that more likely a displaced owl will peck out my eyes and lead me to the edge of a cliff.
Later in the day I told him about Purpleaura’s crazy world of wild animals she has going on in her back yard. The common phrase from the animal control officers, “well never in my 20 years…” is getting a little tired. The latest incidents were last week when she was bitten by something that swelled her leg and foot up to several sizes larger than they should be. Today she and her wonder dog had a run-in with a nasty fox trying to get into the house. As I was leaving at the end of the day the same co-worker told me to tell Purpleaura to watch out for the owl. It wasn’t until I got home and could access my files that I was reminded of referring to the Montebello as Canada’s bohemian grove.
So back we go to bohemian grove and that creepy big–ass owl they all flounce around.
http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Wicca%20&%20Witchcraft/bohemian_grove_exposed.htm
To top it all off, I received some more SPAM emails, one containing a word I did not recognize. I don’t recall the word but I did look it up and it refers to a depraved sexual preference, usually between a man and an unwilling young boy. I don’t mind at all that I didn’t recognize the word, I cannot convey how deeply that disturbs me and the feelings of complete and utter loathing and anger this behavior brings over me.
So between the owl and the fox all that was going through my head is “The fox is in the henhouse” which sounds like a code for the military. I Googled “fox code word” and this came up:
Fox is a term used in Western military aviation to signal the firing of an air to air weapons system.
There are four Fox codes:
Fox One - Indicates launch of a Semi-Active Radar Guided missile (such as the AIM-7 Sparrow)
Fox Two - Indicates launch of an Infrared Guided missile (such as the AIM-9 Sidewinder)
Fox Three - Indicates launch of an Active Radar Guided missile (such as the AIM-120 AMRAAM)
Fox Four - Indicates the firing of Guns/Cannons
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fox_(code_word)
I forgot to mention Purpleaura's fox was the second spotted near her house in 2 days.
When I re-read the dream of the owl turning into a rooster (forgot that part) I wondered if the rooster has awakened the owl. I don’t know what that means but it sounds ominous.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the Hunter blog I mentioned his alleged ties with bohemian grove and a biography of him on the bookshelf falling over a few days after he passed, in turn knocking over Elvis and Me written by Priscilla Presley. The scientologist. Which leads to what happened Sunday night.
While having supper I turned on CNN to see what Dean was up to. They were showing a rerun of Larry King from last week which I hadn’t yet seen, Priscilla was giving Larry a tour of Graceland. King walks in the footsteps of The King. Interesting. Below that was a banner with Hurricane Dean written across it and to the right was the live storm tracker. So I guess we’re not done with Elvis yet either.
Larry mentioned on the show that Warner had released all of Elvis’ DVD’s in early August to commemorate the 30th anniversary of his death. I had a dream last week about seeing the Warner shield fly up towards me with something other than Warner written across the banner that I don’t remember. This led me to check out the DVD’s at Warner’s site and it opens with a video of Jailhouse Rock. I noticed a number on the cell door behind Elvis, 1313, which I thought was odd. I don’t think jail cells have addresses for one and I would like to know who chose that number and why. I have seen the video before but never noticed the numbers. Guess I was paying too much attention to Elvis.
The site has this blurb:
On 13th August, Warner Home Video will commemorate the 30th anniversary of "The King's" passing with a collector's Limited Edition boxset and four Special and Deluxe Edition DVD releases.
Voted the Third Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Artist of All Time by Rolling Stone Magazine (after the Beatles and Bob Dylan)
And around we go again to Bob Dylan. WTF?????
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Until I watched this episode of Larry King I had totally forgotten Elvis’ mother’s name was Gladys, which is a name Purpleaura dreamt of recently regarding coffins. I had also forgotten his father’s name was Vernon, so I looked him up and was surprised to find Vernon was born within 4 days of my ex and died the same date we were married. Did I mention his name is Vernon too?
After Larry King was over they went to the weather. The announcer stated that while we were all busy watching Dean we had overlooked Erin who was doing a lot of damage too. I didn’t see Erin spelled out, I only heard it, but after just watching a show about Elvis Aaron Presley that was more than a bit freaky. Especially since the flooding was primarily in Oklahoma and Minnesota.
When I looked into that story I found not only was Minnesota flooded, they had to call in the national guard and 13 people were dead so far.
13 Die in Midwest Flooding
By SCOTT BAUER 08.20.07, 1:11 AM ET
WINONA, Minn. -
Rivers swollen by as much as a foot of rain lifted houses off their foundations and washed away roads, killing at least 13 people in three states, authorities said Sunday.
Hundreds of people in southeastern Minnesota and southwestern Wisconsin were evacuated, some by boat off rooftops.
"I cannot describe the terror of it all. I'm just glad to be alive," said Sean Wehlage, 29, who climbed onto the roof of his one-story home in Stockton to wait out the storm.
Gov. Tim Pawlenty ordered 240 National Guard soldiers to the area to help with flood-relief and provide security, and the Red Cross set up emergency shelters. Six deaths were reported in Minnesota, and six more in Oklahoma.
"This is the worst disaster that's hit southeast Minnesota in a lifetime," state Sen. Sharon Erickson Ropes said.
I went to bed thinking among other things, Elvis, 1313, 13 dead. I woke up the next morning to the news BWB was already watching when I heard 13 people died in the heat wave in Memphis.

And one last note before I head off to bed. I was waiting in our reception area today for somebody, leaning on the counter just looking around. A piece of mail caught my eye, it was a big manila envelope addressed to the accountant (the same one from the Terrorists and Teapots dream) from North Star excavating. I guess I better look into that.
So here’s what we’ve got so far
