Did you ever get the feeling that there is a secret plot where the sole purpose is to form the way we think. You know, to set the latest trends, give us the latest political thought sometimes known as spin. Barak Obama is the newest one. I mean I had heard his name before but to listen to the news or to read a paper lately and, well, I did'nt know he was the greatest thing since sliced bread. Why didn't I know this before? And not even a full one term Senator yet. Well thank God he is considering a run for the White House because he is the best, right? How do I know? Well they tell me and tell me and tell me. You know if they say something enough then it has a way of being true.

We all see this phenomena. There is a small group of people who are controlling what we think. We know they are there. They may be holed up in an underground facility planning their next new trend. Then they relay their orders to the press and media. We can't live without these people. We need to know. They let us know what is acceptable thought. They tell us the latest trends from who's in to who's out. Of course it goes to movies and music and fashion as well. They tell us about new diets and new wonder drugs and we jump right on. We ride the bandwagon. Of course sometimes, but very rarely they are wrong. I mean, Kerry did'nt win when they all told us how far ahead he was the day before the election. That was supposed too be a done deal. Oh well, they can't work their magic every time. Then there was the Atkins diet and Phen Phen. You know, they screw up here and there.

Where they are very good is in the entertainment field. I mean, we all know Tom Cruise and his religion, Scientology are pure evil personified. We all know that Scarlett Johanson is the most beautiful woman in the world. Oprah is godlike if not god herself. Mel Gibson is really Hitlers illegitimate spawn. Rosie is very wise. Of course O'Reilly and Limbaugh are facists, we all know that.

They can mold the world though with politics. We know Bush is an Idiot. So what he got elected twice. He stole the first one. We know the Democrats will take over in this up coming election. Hillary is well, Hillary. When and if she runs she is to be recognized as a legitimate leader, a true savior. She may have problems with Obama though. Don't worry, they'll tell us what to do. Maybe they will join forces but who will be VP? Don't worry about immigrants either. They are harmless. Bin Laden would never figure a way to mingle in with them. He would literaly have hundreds of cells in the country already. Wouldn't he? We will find a way to provide them with health care and services, the terrorists too. So what if they drive wages down, we need somebody to do all the dirty work anyway. And don't worry about their criminal elements of gangs and drug runners. We have that here right now and competition is always a good thing, right?

But the latest thing of course that has been subliminaly put in our heads are the sting rays. Every comic and wanna be commentater has warned us about the sting rays. This is a real threat but they teach us with humor. We may need to build a second wall, a sea wall because anytime now they may invade in numbers. This is alot worse than Jaws, or swine flu and don't forget flesh eating and mad cow. You know though I jest about the sting rays. They are just the new target. A Tom Cruise with a poisonous stinger tail. They are just the new joke du jour. Hopefully Steve Irwins little girl will not catch on that it is only a joke. But thankfully the controllers are there, working hard. What to think, what to do, we need to know.
