Hey Everyone.
Listen, I have an important announcement to make, and no, I am not leaving.
This is very important, so read carefully and try not to skip the words.
Last night I had a dream.
All the gods humans have ever created in our history showed up in my dream and gave me the following instructions.
As I was taken from my body, I was pure energy, they showed me the planet from outer space, just above our satellites. I could clearly see our beautiful planet.
And without talking, since I just could feel the message, they showed me.
Forget global warming, the big one, asteroids, armageddon.
Friday 12 when Lucy, Jeff or whomever is in charge for doing that, clicks on °post° podcast number 1111 something is going to happen.
Good luck everyone
Hey guys.
Just finished listening to EC 1106 getting a flat tire.
I had that experience this last winter because of rock falling from the side of the mountains into the road.
It was early in the morning and I was not able to avoid that.
But that is not the worst thing that happened.
When I pulled out the spare wheel that was there since I bought the car in 2001 it was deflated.
So, when you check your tires up, do not forget the spare wheel.
Bye.
