Gary Grainger

This has just been posted by a Blues Show listener and virtual buddy Patrick Darnell - I am gobsmacked, thanks man!

Dolphins line up and pay to swim with him ...
His own children call him Pope G ...
His slide guitar strings were auctioned off at an undisclosed price ...
His passport requires no photo, just a mustache ...
He don't listen to Sinatra, but when he doo bee doo bee doo ...
His feet don't get blisters, but his shoes do ...
If he were to punch you, you would have to fight a strong urge to thank him ...
He doesn't always sing along with his favorite songs, but when he does he sings along with the guitar solo too ...
Every zoo is a petting zoo, if you're not a pussy ...
He can speak Russian ... in French ...
When he slices onions, the onions cry ...
The Holy Grail is looking for him ...

He doesn't often drink beer but when he does it's Old Chimneys Good King Henry Special Reserve ...

Gary Grainger is simply the most interesting Blues DJ east of the Mississippi.

Who is Robert Holmes?

News headlines: Batman Massacre - WHY?:

"Robert Holmes, the shooting suspect's father, not only uncovered the true intent of this massive fraud, but has also traced the "hidden" trillions of dollars to the exact bank accounts of the elite classes who have stolen it. In other words, Robert Holmes could NAME NAMES! Those names WOULD AWAKEN THE WORLD to the depth of government and corporate corruption which could include members of Congress, Wall Street, Federal Reserve and EU executives and could even include US Presidential candidates and the British Royal family.
What kind of a "shut up" deal has been worked out with Robert Holmes to save his son from the death penalty?"

The banks of London set the 'borrowing rates' low betwixt each other, so that they can loan money at a 'high rate' and make lots of money! Easy to understand, eh?

At article: " ... the banks did not fix the Libor rate with their customers in mind. Instead, the fixed Libor rate enabled them to improve their balance sheets, as well as help to perpetuate the regime of low interest rates. The last thing the banks want is a rise in interest rates that would drive down the values of their holdings and reveal large losses masked by rigged interest rates. (Jacque Fresco. July 17, 2012. HERE)... "

We are now pretty obviously facing the possibility of a world that the supranational corporations, and the governments and educational systems that serve them, will control entirely for their own enrichment—and, incidentally and inescapably, for the impoverishment of all the rest of us. - Wendell Berry

One is left with bereft feelings about the obvious sadism of the son James Holmes and what he did in shooting innocent people. How could a banking regulator be at the well head of this story, though?

" ... Most important to note about James Holmes, however, this report says, is that his father, Robert Holmes, was said to have been scheduled to testify within the next few weeks before a US Senate panel on the largest bank fraud scandal in world history that is currently unfolding and threatens to destabilize and destroy the Western banking system.

Police: School bus dispatcher was bank robbery getaway driver | www.wftv.com:

Reynolds-Bell has worked for Orange County public schools for nearly 24 years. Now, the alleged bank robber is suspended with pay, which means she gets $17.20 per hour.
Police said Reynolds-Bell, a longtime school bus dispatcher, was also a getaway driver for her husband.
"I'm not guilty. And that's all I have to say, according to my lawyer," said Reynolds-Bell. (wftv.com.9. ORLANDO, Fla. Tuesday, Feb. 21, 2012 HERE) ... "

Some questions come to mind. How is it that this bus dispatcher is not guilty of helping to rob a bank? If you drop off a bank robber, and then pick them up as they leave the bank with stolen property, isn't that traditionally part of this type drama?

For sure, it seems very unlikely that a story like this could actually happen in the 21st century ... haven't the robbers seen any bank robbery movies, TV shows, or more recently, TARP?

Mash me up and pile on, I am speechless. Maybe I need to re-read, and find more detail. Did this couple wake up one day and just decide to go out and "rob a bank?" Or did it happen as the suspect getaway driver says, "she is not guilty." She claims she did not find out about her husband's robbing the bank until much later.

When Van Gogh, the Dutch painter, cut off his ear and gave it to his girlfriend, and then did a self-portrait of his bandaged head ... his act had a certain build up. Over time Van Gogh became mentally disturbed enough to play out the deed of self-mutilation.

Don't the robbers realize their troubles are self-inflicted?

But what build up led this couple to rob a bank, and fail so deservedly at it? There is mention by some neighbors that the couple had been arguing over money. Nonetheless, they have certainly given the grand old profession of bank robbery a real bad name. They are a stain on a much revered literary plot, robbing the bank.

Stick 'em up!

" ... Police say that Sharon Reynolds-Bell, who has worked for the Orange County School District for nearly 24 years, was behind the wheel of the car that aided her husband, Johnny Bell, in robbing a TD Bank branch in Titusville, according to Orlando TV station WFTV. (HERE) ... "

EXCERPT | " ... Among former employees of The News of the World, said one, there is cynicism about the motivations of their former employer. Some feel, the person said, that the management “is protecting itself and serving up journalists.”

Britain’s National Union of Journalists criticized what it characterized as the handing of the staff members to the police without internal investigation of the evidence. “It’s a very brutal way of treating senior journalists who may or may not have done anything wrong,” said the group’s deputy general secretary, Barry Fitzpatrick.

Indonesia 'rail surfers' face 'goop' brooms - CBC News

Indonesia 'rail surfers' face 'goop' brooms - CBC News: "Indonesia has come up with another bizarre plan to keep commuters from riding on the roofs of trains: Swat them with brooms drenched in putrid goop.

"For anyone who is still up there, it'll be like a whip," said Ahmad Sujadi, of the state-run railway, PT Kereta Api Indonesia."

'via Blog this'
Thrillseeking ‘train surfers’ in Indonesia will be brought down to earth with a bump as part of a new scheme to crack down on fare dodgers.

Rail bosses in Indonesia hope they’re on the right track to get rid of pesky roof-riders – by installing grapefruit-sized concrete balls to sweep the tops of carriages.

They hope to derail hundreds of passengers who dice with death by clambering on top of trains, either to dodge the fares or escape the crush inside.

A spokesman for the state-owned railway company, PT Kereta Api, said: ‘We’ve tried just about everything, even putting rolls of barbed wire on the roof, but nothing seems to work. Maybe this will do it.’

The first set of the silver-painted balls was installed near a station just outside Jakarta.

But the effect was rather lost when it emerged bungling officials had made the chains too short, leaving a gap of about 40cm (16in) between the balls and passing trains.

"The fact is, the execution can still happen," Ahadi said. "And, often times in Iran, these types of executions will happen without any notice."
