A blood soaked Arthur IS RISING

Gonzo journalism and fiction is a tricky mix.... Welcome to my razor's edge.

HELLO THERE...

I am an elf in the attic making mind toys with sharp edges; an educated writer who gets good reviews, who you can read for free in the rough form of first drafts on the web, or purchase in a book form.
The best soldier does not attack. The superior fighter succeeds without violence. The greatest conqueror wins without struggle. The most successful manager leads without dictating. This is intelligent non aggressiveness. This is called the mastery of men.

Welcome to you, I am John Scott Ridgway, Novelist, Poet, Blogger, Radio and TV writer and actor... five books, also paint in oils and acrylics. I am poet warrior of sorts, a non violent radical, personally, though understanding of those who choose other paths IN THE EIGHTY PLUS COUNTRIES AT LAST COUNT THAT came in this blog ...

The predicted revolutions in the USA and around the would are going to


be violent in the next twenty years, is what the CIA says. I want them to stay peaceful, which is the only way to win this struggle between haves and have nots. They have more guns, we have more people,, and they include the mothers and sisters and brothers of the people they will ask to fight us.... I think they underestimate the police.

NEVER ACCEPT APPEASEMENT OVER JUSTICE. By any means necessary is the reality. . . the USA can be spared stupid wars, but other countries. . . need different solutions. . .

The number of Countries that have come in to have a look at this blog humbles me. Thank you very much.


NEVER UNDERESTIMATE HOW MUCH I DESPISE VIOLENCE

EXCEPT UNDER EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES BY

PROFESSIONALS, HOPEFULLY, like the police, military, etc...

understanding that violence is sometimes needed

does not mean I like anything about the sound

of fists hitting faces

Boxing is too much for me

make me feel like I am watching

dog fights with toothless pitbulls


"I am an artist first, and a politician second," as John Lennon said.

My intentions are to stop the violence from entering into

revolutionary wars

the CIA

predicts


will break out in the next twenty years all over the

world, including here...

But Ill tell ya,

if there is not some redistribution of

wealth here there and everywhere

WE WILL WITNESS THE HORROR

THE HORROR

OF WAR ON all OUR SHORES




My intentions is to keep these protests peaceful

so we can win

without bloodshed



Total War for Total Peace

Never incites violence

or destroys property

you should be able

to go to protests with strollers and babies

parents feeling as safe as the police


Now, poetry...


I am too far out into the battlefield to retreat. This CHARGE is win or die...




PROPHECIES OF ECSTASIES AND HORRORS


A blood soaked Arthur has risen



be aware

be very aware


total war
for total peace
is being fought
HERE

THERE will be many ways to die
and only one to live
give and give and give
until the worlds downtrodden and oppressed
can begin to forgive
before things get bloody and ruthless
My Peace sign shot full of holes
and my reason ignored
drowned out by the roar of machine guns

You cannot break the golden rule
all the time and not expect
consequences from nature
mankind


we will fight for our right to thrive as well
we do not accept your sentence
to poverty so you can earn more
by shipping the factory off to China
WE ACCEPT NO CHAINS...
BREAK THOSE WE HAVE
COME RUNNING FOR OUR OPPRESSORS
WHO THE HELL WOULDN'T???


nothing this mindgame in america can do to us
can destroy this thing inside that yearns for freedom
enough to die in the name of JUSTICE
generation after generation
from time
immemorial










No more hyper-reality FOR US. We have already spent too long in an oasis of belief where nothing is wrong, folks... Now, we must face this was all a mirage... and try like hell to get out of this desert... or resolve ourself to the fact that we will leave our children to starve in the barren sands.


There are better ways to defeat an enemy than an outright fight, especially if you are vastly outnumbered, like the Elite. MSM PSY-WAR allows them to control our actions through our thoughts, and basically stop our FORCE from activating. I am not saying we should fight just because we can win, I am just saying we should fight before we lose, if no other option is left us.... because a world is at stake.

  • You are a spark in dry timber, stopped from becoming a roaring flame
    only by -- YOUR OWN DISBELIEF IN YOUR POWER TO IGNITE...
    They SET UP LAWS THAT ALLOW THEM TO STEAL. MURDER. BRAINWASH THEIR CRITICS. We must begin to feel challenged now to stop them. Or WE WILL LOSE EVERYTHING. PERIOD. THE SKY, OTHER SPECIES, OUR WATER... OUR MINDS. No more hyper-reality for us... too long in that oasis where nothing is wrong folks... we must face this is all a mirage.
    • OUR LACK OF RESOLVE TO CHANGE OUR WORLD MUST PUZZLE THE GODS THEMSELVES.... how can we be this collectively dum? And if we are....then the brains will be looked to as potential saviors.... when all too often they are just psocyo-paths and stooges and scared folks under the gun who are ALLOWED to CON EVERYONE... FOR THE GOOD OF A




A cruel slap woke me to the PAIN
at the moment of birth;
My first cry was NO
buried in unintelligible screams.
I am a man now.
Now I catch your hand and break all the fingers.

You must be whoever the enemy fears the least
or fears the most.

No other position is saf

Welcome to the spark that inflames TOTAL WAR FOR TOTAL PEACE.

I am too far out into the battlefield to retreat. This CHARGE is win or die...

THE ELVES ATTIC is stories, poetry, essay's, peculiar events in my life . . . oil painting, articles.


Your patience for bearing with me on my first drafts is a much appreciated kindness. Your worldwide interest is my muse . . .Lately I have been writing a book called Gangsta General x, about a revolutionary in the USA, who is fighting to keep the revolt peaceful as things spin out of control in the states after a famine gets the populace hungry enough to change their society once and for all....



HOW TO USE THIS BLOG: There is a black and white jukebox in the right column that you can shut off, or find songs on.... To listen to the COMEDY SKITS FROM THE SHOW PEACE AND PIPEDREAMS... turn off the black jukebox, and turn on the Green one. I play Moon Bong Haze and Jesus...

I have five majors, five books, two tv shows, a radio show, 76 countries at last count on this site alone, and over a million online readers to my credit. I can't thank any of you enough for all of your help and encouragement over the years; the favors and aide that has been offered me, the trust in my leadership... you are all SACRED TO ME ... even you folks I tend to hate.

TOTAL WAR FOR TOTAL PEACE -- Thank you especially. Your sacrifices live on. I salute you... and SWEAR ON THE GODS OF MY FATHERS THAT WE WILL TRIUMPH AND YOUR DEATHS WILL BE PAID FOR IN BLOOD AND TREASURE.

Thank you.

MESSAGE FROM THE GHOST OF ELVIS TO HIS FANS..



MESSAGE FROM THE GHOST OF ELVIS TO HIS FANS..


"Look, just because you bought some damn ouiji board does not mean you can just call me up from my eternal rest any old goddamn time you choose to discuss the best way to fry peanut butter and banana sandwiches, and other 'little people,' shit . . . and I will not help anyone, repeat anyone, with their corns... NEVER AGAIN, YOU HEAR ME... you're nice once, and then ya got old lady corn prayers hanging over your head all day, man... got me shooting up clouds I am so pissed... and let me just add, I AM NOT THE PATRON SAINT OF BISCUITS AND GRAVY and I dam well would sue anyone who said so while I was alive.... why the hell can't I be patron saint of Cadillac'... but don't think that means praying to me for Cad's will work,either, because it has been tried too many dam times for this cat. I got drugs, women, Jesus to talk to... hell, even here, I'm a godda.... excuse my language, Lord... STAR. Turns out Jesus couldn't wait to get me singing in his club up here, gave me the whole bowl instruction thing... So singing for the Lord, entertaining the Angels.... can't you fans see, da... dang it...leave it off with the Ouji board... every time I got me a couple angels wings wrapped around in in a whirlpool of clouds, one of ya is asking, "Elvis, oh, Elvis, will it matter if I use Margarine, instead of the preferred butter, to make fried peanut butter and banana sanwiches?"


Hell, it feels bad ignoring ya'll, you know that.. and if I don't answer these angels look at me like ... anyways... then you get to asking questions about some damn thing I was too drugged out to remember in any way shape or form, okay.... so just stop, it would help my life alright, a favor.... and remember that about biscuits and gravy, I got nothing in the world against them, but I AM NOT THE PATRON SAINT OF BISCUITS AND GRAVY. Think Big Old Black Cadillac with the stereo loud and rocking with a posse armed to the teeth, a bunch of drugged up and drunk,hard fisted good old boys having one hell of a time, alright???? With more chicks smashed around us than you ever had in your life.... kinda like Heaven is some days... one big party. Pray ya get here... or He likes your music. His dad was kind of pissed at me, but even he had to admit the notches on my bed wore down many an oak four poster. Of course, God will only admit that when I get him stoned."

I started out studying Journalism


, and loved the New Journalists, and after a couple years of study I feel I have some of the basics. Lately I have been writing as straight journalism as I get these days now that I think the truth is easier for people to believe in funny fiction than a dry essay they do not read.... about my own work with Bush and the terrible things done and how I want Justice and believe in Justice a concept, not a form of revenge; Justice as a way of governing. What a concept that is to our lawless intelligence agencies -- or those factions that are.

They are cynical or crazy patriots... they need to be replaced by diplomats who hate guns. They are not supposed to be an army. They are supposed to gather intelligence for the army..... they operate without even the meager disciplines of a dark and bloody war.... war is a law unto itself only to criminals. You might do things that are criminal outside a battlefield, but there are lines... some cross them because they have grown half crazed, others because they had no ethics in the first place. Those who know how to lead need to learn how to weed (as in gardening, not that I am saying they shouldn't learn any how to weed in other ways, especially if they are drinkers -- put a cork in it and bubble up a bong..

The Reaper looks on from above the battle
Even his familiarity with death
is no shield
against his disgust at the human slaughters

THIS FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER...

Too Much. They came after me, and they may come after you... be prepared to fight them and WIN. Only knowing what mind control is,how it works, and how a propaganda machine is aimed at you can free you.




they came

me after me, they may just you.... don't let em' scare ya, BECAUSE THIS FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER...

I fought them off -- SO CAN YOU.

DISCOVER YOUR POWER... and take it back from those who snuck in our open doors and stole and stole until they had the entire house.... the land... the banks now own outright 35% of the USA. Here is why you redistribute cash and land - MONEY IS POWER AND ONE PERCENT HAVE MOST OF IT... and their needs --- their exorbitant needs, must be met even as others starve, and live homeless in their cars with their children, scavenging from garbage for food. WE FIGHT NOW OR FOREVER HOLD OUR COWARDLY PEACE.
This is pretty damned funny... and sad too of course. I mean, what was that woman thinking not reading this poor man's updates????? And refusing to respond.... Lord, even stranger's are not so rude. I have tried many times to tell this to M, who reads my books and basically nothing else since she is on computer all day at work,hates them at night, and watches tv.... which bores me, most of the time, and I get bitched at for sitting beside her reading or writing on the computer while she tv's... weird. Anyways, the point here is that She never reads my facebook updates and while I would not smack her over this (she would kick my ass up and down the block if I even suggested hitting her, and her mother can be pretty mean with that walker, too... welts, for sure)... I do not care at all.

THE RAMBLINGS OF A PROPHECY OF POETRY

  • Of course, I shoul add, M. is wonderful and this is my loss, for sure, in many ways, and I do not mean to ever say anything mean about her or her dear Mother, because it is best we do not live together. And they are both great... so please, do not take me wrong. My love for M. is forever, and I would never leave her high and dry, broke and unable to afford an apartment, etc... I am not going to be that kind of person. Period. I can take living here a couple months until she is settled. Whatever. She is certainly gracious and kind enough to do so for me. She is the greatest, M. And I will only say nice things about her and her family, who have been great, which is how I really feel.

I am fairly easy to get along with, very easy going... but, hey, I like to paint, write, and live a certain way, and NO ONE gets to change me... No, I live like I want with someone or I move on, Sadly... but you know.. happens.

  • Funny how we think one person is the center of universe..the sun around which our planet-ourselves orbits around and yet d when that ends universe explodes... you see all the stars out there again, the places to travel to, and the, sorry to say a so soon, but I do think about it in a way...other women....Must be careful ... reaons for that too.....last time after a fifteen year relastionship,, I was celebate for a year,,, but I love women,,, and other... well, , other women out there more off into art and politics, the lasses I have turned down are rather heartbreaking as I break up. Anyways, I would not disrespect M by looking around very hard while we are in this process of transition, still, I would be stupid not to... make certain exceptions if you know, well... but not while we live together these next couple months.... a lot of time to decide how I will deal with this new,, unexpected situation.

    I also missed the friends I have missed by being tied to M's mother's needs... I have been turning down a chance to go to Egypt and write on a newspaper, be their English web connection, exciting time to be there... but my radio show is doing the same thing, featuring a journalist from there. Easy to get the cats in and a place to stay in the middle or a revolution. I would thrive.

  • If you like my writing, you will love/ like the radio broadcast, podcast starting on Halloweed, MMy last one Peace and Pipedreams drove a tiny internet studio in Chicago to number one ratings in the city, a world wide hit that made my name and got me a lot of rock and tv and movie and political buddies...even the president, when he was running, liked my comedy and poetry and wanted to meet me sent me a video invitation I turned down.. I back issues, not politician, though he is a home town friend and I love him as a man, his politic are what they are and I do not like them... big critic, but I temper this with my love for a fan of my writing, you know?

      • John Scott Ridgway My comedy is my favorite politics, and seems to draw the biggest crowds. On the Elves Attic, you will see that is a huge side of me, and I like to enjoy life, and have a very huge comfort zone with what I will talk about, especially when single, which I have been for like fourteen hours officially, though unofficially for some time, perhaps... who knows? Sad but okay... I think the relief I feel is dominant.

  • I cannot complain about ten years writing books--five done, and three finished basically and almost ready to publish, sold a lot of painting, living by the lake. We had a fine life with a lot of problems because of my political work, but that is over now that i a lot of spies friends who watch out for me. If I do leave Chicago, I shall however be COY about my new location.... yes, that time has come.... i may have to go underground if these protests do not stay non violent. WE CANNOT LOSE. aLL my prayers and efforts are against such things, but God moves in mysterious ways, and sends me where I am NEEDED, not where I WANT TO GO....where I need to go.

  • I must be ready to end this relationship if all i feel is relief. I am an artist and in no way perfect, but she ha barely cooked in nine years, never cleaned, or packed or really did anything ..... she worked and made a bit more money than me, but I was not trying to sell my books, etc.. for a lot of reasons. I am starting a show that if it does not make money, will at least get me a better radio how... had a nice 1.5 mill offer for the last show, until they changed it and added a woman who was not funny and a lot of other shit they tried to hide... oh, well...such is life dealing with radio and tv folk... thank god for the net, and I now need no studio, or fat boss telling us our show was very popular but with all the pot talk no advertisers were coming on and they NEVER EVEN TRIED TO SELL ADVERTISING BECAUSE THEY WERE TOO LAZY.... helll, I sold ads for my tv show. I sold one for the radio show last night... so there.....one computer shop advertising already and not even trying to go to bong shops, who all want to ad....

  • The Anonymous campaign began Oct. 14, when members of the hacktivist group found a cache of child-pornography websites while browsing a secret website called the Hidden Wiki, a guidebook to hundreds of underground websites invisible to search engines and regular Internet users. The hackers singled out Lolita City, a file-sharing site used by pedophiles, and leaked the names of the site's 1,589 active members to Pastebin on Tuesday (Oct. 18), the Examiner reported.

    Member of Anonymous deciding to hack a website whose stance they don't agree with is by no means shocking news. In the past year, Anonymous-affiliated hackers have gone after the New York Stock Exchange, the Westboro Baptist Church, the Recording Industry Association of America and government sites in Malaysia, Egypt, Tunisia and Zimbabwe.

    However, in targeting child pornography sites, and in explaining its methods of attack, these Anonymous-affiliated hackers have revealed a deeply disturbing side of the Internet unknown...

    Member of the hacking group Anonymous have released the usernames of what they say are more than 1,500 members of a child-pornography file-trading website called Lolita City, and also claim to have taken more than 40 child-pornography sites offline. The sites existed on a hidden part of the Internet...
