Blog.... uh excuse me!

An ugly word, an ugly purpose?

Ugly from the word 'go'

(BANGKOK) - The word "blog" is a ridiculous contraction of "web log" and an ugly word, it sounds like someone walking through a swamp in too-small wellington boots.

The word was developed and pushed by the mainstream media to denigrate opinions held by non-aligned individuals, so I don't read anything that independent writers call "blogs" because if they can't work out why they are calling their opinions "blogs" then they probably can't work out much else, either..

After recovering from the shock of seeing the Twin Towers collapse, on subsequent showings, I developed a strong feeling that what I was seeing and what I was being told were quite different things. For two such buildings to collapse, in the manner they did, solely because they had been hit by large aircraft, did not make sense. The collapses were too uniform. If aircraft impacts were the cause, at least one of the buildings should have fallen over. I subsequently made a video called "WTC7 -- This is an Orange" to express my concern that the public was not being told the truth about 9/11.
