    RIP highdesertranger

    Yup that's Mike. Adding my condolences. He did care about helping people and passed on a lot of good information about the lifestyle.

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    I agree, morality is subjective and must be analyzed and discussed to reach a consensus, but I have made no attempt to do so here, only to state that morality does exist as something greater than a mere abstract.

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    For those who are reading and unaware, statements like these can be made because they have come from peculiarly reliable sources. NASA claims the moon 'rang like a bell' for over an hour when struck by a probe, indicating that it is a hollow artificial structure. But, this is from the same...

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    Is  this  intended  as  a point  of pride? Yes, all true. Even a cursory investigation into the details of the Sphinx/Pyramids will reveal that the Egyptian government goes out of their way to conceal truth from the public. As a kid in the 90s, I watched the broadcast from the guys that put a...

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    There is nothing to fear. They hold no power over us. We all choose. The red pill is not yet over. If you understand that it is energy and consciousness which comprise the universe and all matter, that consciousness precipitates matter, and that collective consciousness is real and shared by all...

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    I will give you another high level red pill. Ours is not the first advanced global civilization on this planet. You need research only the Kaiminawa Wall to see this is the case. The Earth is subject to recurring cataclysm. Ancient people knew this, and built great works to stand the testament...

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    Inscription over the door of Plato's academy: "Let none who are ignorant of geometry come under my roof." Materialism has been pushed hard on humankind for the last hundred years, and in Europe it's been going on for hundreds of years longer. They want to separate us from our very sense of...

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    'Greatest Red Pill you May Receive' Just like in that movie, the red pill is the one which awakens you to the true nature of your world. I think most of us are smart enough to notice without being told that many of our systems do not work in our interests. Speaking for myself, I realized as...

    The State of the World, and Life's Real Questions

    How would your political opinions change if you had answers to the real questions? -Why are we here? -How can we know if meaning is existent? -To what degree can objectivity be verified? How would the positions of politicians, world leaders, and the political landscape as a whole change if we...

    Anyone remember...?

    I also don't have the video you're looking for, but if you're looking to get dental work done, I can offer you advice that is better than a referral to a particular dentist. It's a buyer's market in Algodonez. Just walk across the border, ignore the first 15 people that talk to you, start...

    A message from Bob

    From my vantage point stranded in town I've watched the streets fill up with water every time the rain picks up and wondered how the RTR site is looking. I bet more than a few people are finding all the leaks in their roofs too.

    RTR no, no's

    ^ Basically, anything that's not dirt (err, rocks). Stuff takes forever to grow in the desert. When you're used to driving on grass and it grows back in 3 weeks this seems foreign. But when one scraggly bush takes a couple decades to grow, then anyone burning it or driving over it ruins decades...

    Made it to RTR - almost. Broke down at Arco station.

    So that's who's over there! I saw your RV and wondered if you might be here for the RTR. I'll have to see what's going on with the people at the shop, and with ordering my new tcase, but after that if timing works out I might take you up on that ride. Thanks for the offer. Will catch up in the...

    I decided to get a head start on the labor. We'll see how much the shop likes me in the morning. Lots of good crunchy bits inside there. I don't think there's any oil in it either.

    Tow mission success! And he refused to take any payment. Thanks again bullfrog.

    Did some calling around. Shops between Yuma and Phoenix claim that the closest tcase like this in their parts system is in Wisconsin. Jasper quoted me $2,200 to build one and send it out. Then I found a dude by the name of Kirby Kappes in Morehead KY who says he will build one tomorrow and...

    RTR no, no's

    ^ Nails, treated lumber, also regulations about transporting wood. In truth though it's common to burn those things and I don't think anyone will hassle you for it unless you do it in front of a park ranger in broad daylight. Just don't stand downwind of smoke from treated lumber and don't...

    Yep, that's be the transfer case! Found this hole at the top of it near where it connects to transmission. If anyone knows a source to get a tcase near Quartzsite/Phoenix area, let me know. Otherwise I'm at the mercy of this Best Auto repair place. 2001 F450 manual 6sp 4wd 7.3l

    Had the same thought, Plant! No dice. Neither the front or rear drive shaft turn in 4hi or 4lo. Plenty of crunchy gnashing metal noises emanate from the tcase when attempting this. The gnashing noises are louder and faster when putting the transmission in a higher gear. This is how I know it's...
