@xstorm_8_shadowx I can't imagine Lake Mead on a map, but right away I'm thinking about survival cities being built in the shelter of the Rocky Mountains. When someone told me about all those black caskets being accumulated and stored in some cities, I looked that up. It was true. Now I'm after the underground reservoirs. The Inca, Maya, Romans and Egyptians, all had huge underground water storage and movement, and the Inca and Maya cities still work, even if they've been abandoned for over five hundred years. In a way, it's like that around here, only concrete, not stone. All the first hydro channels from the first commercial hydro in the world, all the old feeder canals and the old canals from Lake Erie through the peninsula, some places look like planet of the apes, concrete ruins , old bridges, with pieces of roads all overgrown. And then you see a manhole cover in the middle of nowhere, a forest, opening it up to look down a dark tunnel with a ladder. I wish I could use photos to show you.

When I playing, and singing, in a band in Niagara Falls, a local DJ said he was riding the big ferris wheel,
doing that all weekend, for a charity event. He asked me if I wanted to spend some time with him up there
on a Sundy afternoon. He said they stopped the wheel for a half hour so he could get some rest, and if
I'm up there I'll have the biggest view of Niagara Falls. I didn't hear this man complain about being stuck.
Considering all the Americans who used to come to the Falls, I'll define the time by saying that was the
year Willy Nelson had "Blue Eyes Crying in The Rain" and "Hello Walls" was a biggie. Look at what they're
calling a ferris wheel, and observation wheel. It's not an observation deck, where they got that from.
You sound stupid when you use improper English, using the wrong words to describe something,
no matter how big or how rich you are. Online, a lot of people act stupid, but even if you are smart,
you are acting stupid and that's where you're at, for those moments, time out of a more rewarding life.

@riffmcnasty8713 Hear me, and fear not, for heavy riffs come your way. And the heaviest riff is the one in your heart, riffing away all day, holding you down, helping to make you feel subverted, perverted and diverted, if not diverse, with the life around you that you share. You are free. But the same routine day-to-day, the same media seen every day, isn't a prison, just an addictive trap. Just think, everything we're seeing here, everything we see as TV and movies, is a business built on capturing your attention. All you have to do is stop looking and it all goes away, just like me today, waiting to ride into the sunset towards Lake Erie, bike-hiking along the shore to Waverly Beach, the beginning of the Niagara River, and then I'll ride along that Niagara Parkway, out of the night into the day, and then into the night until I make it back here, oh yeah, just in time for a nice soak in a hot tub, where I might sleep a little. If you don't feel free deeply enough, maybe there's something psychic about you that hasn't come through.

@tracewallace23 Go ahead, start a new unCivil War based on talking points while you take selfies of yourself. If you think your life or the lives of your loved ones are in danger where you live, you are insane not to move somewhere else. You wouldn't talk about guns so casually if you were ever in the presence of death, something I've never seen in any American... uh... entertainment. By the way, in all of your viewing life, real and artificial, how many people have you seen killed, from street cops to galactic take-overs? Your eyes don't know the difference between reality and artificial visuals, other than knowing it's a show. Your emotions are also affected, mostly becoming immune to murders and domestic violence. When hand-helds with cameras first came out in New York City, they had to pass a law making it a crime to not report a crime, because people would gather around a man raping a woman on the sidewalk and send them instead of calling police.

@tracewallace23 I'm getting into it with you. I might have been typing on You Tube too long and plowed into you, yes, I might have been generic with you. I'm 72, hearing what you say. There are Sons and Daughters of the Gael who speak Gaelic. That's my only ancestry. That means more to me than any nationality, born in the Niagara Peninsula. I have a right of return in Scotland. Not looking for a gotcha moment, the freedom you talk about belonged to the natives of the Americas before foreign military used genocide. No diseases for humans until blankets with Dark Ages diseases were spread by Jesuit priests. There were no wars of bloodshed, until pale-skins brought their tide of war. They say the Hawaiian Islands were the last place on earth with no diseases, until Captain Cook brought them, and they killed him when he came back. Yes, I'm getting off-track, but I'm sure you understand. Our planet. Love it or leave it.

@lokokrz.gaming Thanks for asking. An empire has global ambitions, not like an independent country. Instead of me trying to explain, look at the Roman Empire, what England and Americans copied as politics, being a Republic, and religion, being Christians. Ancient Roman citizens had free food, free wine, free money, free arena entertainment, using heroin, opium, morphine, hashish, marijuana with lotus eating. An empire uses its own citizens as a financial resource, why Americans are being driven to live their lives indoors and online. When you think of the Lincoln Memorial, does it look like a copy of a Roman Empire temple for a god? When Attila the Hun, the Mongols, conquered the Roman Empire, he built more schools and libraries for Romans than the Romans did.
