As some may know when I was driving a truck I listened to a radio show called Coast to Coast. Here is the web site Home - Coast to Coast AM

I ran across a few pics that they have and thought you might enjoy. Along with the pics is a caption.



Sniper in Black Chopper?


While we were in Sturgis for a bike rally we took this picture. Some calls were placed and we were told by the FAA that this is a border patrol chopper. Having friends in that department we knew full well it was not that. The photo was taken on 8/8/12 at around noon while the chopper was right over the city. It was about 800 feet up.

Sasquatch Warning


Came across this notice on the bulletin board outside the Ecology Centre of the Lynn Canyon Conservation Area in North Vancouver. I am not sure whether it is legitimate or not, but found it rather amusing as it is serious in tone and warns that Sasquatch season is indeed in effect and to avoid making eye contact in case of encounter. You be the judge!

Molecular Laser Scanner For Airport Security?


The publisher of ALT Headlines shares another comic, Molecular Laser Scanner For Airport Security?, depicting some rather invasive security measures coming to an airport near you.




Chemtrails: A Simple Education


The publisher of ALT Headlines shares this comic, Chemtrails: A Simple Education, suggesting chemtrails may be responsible for a zombie apocalypse.





Painting: ´Pharmasaurus Rx´


I've been observing several contradictions that we face in our society and the "War on Drugs" has always been one of the most blatantly exploited mantras that often brings me to disgust. In school, they told me to 'Say No to Drugs' and yet our establishment and media pushes all types of wonderful drugs for just about everything. America is the largest consumer of pharmaceutical drugs in the world and that makes me wonder how much our foreign policy is about maintaining our "fix," rather than spreading democracy and good will. I hope the painting makes the viewer consider what really lies behind the reasons for all these military entanglements.

Milky Way Over Stonehenge Memorial


The Milky Way appears above the Stonehenge Memorial in Maryhill, Washington, almost as steam boiling from a pot of water. The photo was taken during the Lyrid Meteor shower early in the morning on April 22nd, 2012. Photos of meteors weren't happening but fortunately the Milky Way made an impressive backdrop to the full sized, astronomically aligned Stonehenge replica that was commissioned and built as a memorial to the soldiers who died during World War I.


I hope you enjoy them.

Sniper in Black Chopper?

In the open door? Not sure. That is the Co-pilot position. Not sure what your pointing out in the bird. It is a Bell Jet Ranger (civilian) or, (military) an OH-58. I know it is not a D model as it does not have a Mast Mounted sight. (It would look like a beach ball ontop of the rotors.) The dark green paint that we use really appears "black" I will agree, but at night, they disappear. Iv'e seen newer CH-47s. (F models??) that are lighter in color. They look like Viet-Nam paints as they appear "faded". I watch them come in all night as they stand out.

I wish it came on earlier out here. Besides there is no radio station that will pick it up where I live, Nashville is to far and, Chattanooga is blocked by the Cumberland Mountains And ol George charges to listen to the live steam. But even with all those issues I knew I was not alone .
Just send me a warning if you see UFOs headed my way . That will give me time to get my Nagant loaded up .

I didn't take the pic, I pulled it off of Coast to Coast web site. See the OP. There is a web site there also. I only know what the caption reads below the pic. But hey it's the Sturgis Bike Run and I wouldn't be surprised if they did have snippers in helicopters.
