Volume 2: Escape to Insanity
“Liars! Liars! They’re all liars!”
- 1964. I was one of two Eagle Scouts selected by national competition to accompany U.S. Navy explorers on the FIRST on-foot expedition to the North Pole. The eyes of the world were on us: Nanook and Schnook.
- Expedition CANCELLED! “The ice is too soft!”
We were assigned to work with the summer research teams. But life at the Barrow Alaska Navy base turned most principles upside down. We called it, “northern lights fever”. Every day was a nightmare. - Plankton researchers didn’t even have a boat. I could weld a raft together from discarded oil drums. The base wouldn’t give me welding rods. They wouldn’t let me use the electric welder.
- BUT, I was an Eagle Scout! I was resourceful! I could sift through the sand in the work area after hours and find scrap rods. I could build a welder with equipment in the warehouse.
- If I was caught, though, my name would get plastered in every newspaper around the planet.
- HOW STUPID COULD I BE? One look at the trimaran raft I planned to built would give me away!
- OK! OK! I DID IT! The researchers needed to get on the water. Great decision for them. TERRIBLE DECISION for ME!
- A week later, I was sent out 200 miles, alone, with NO radio communication. To care for an abandoned oil camp? Yeah! Yeah! I deserved it.
“KEEP OUT OF TROUBLE” the base commander said.
“Good luck Nanook! Try to stay alive” the pilot who dropped me off said with a diabolical smile as he closed the door and flew off. - How would I know I’d smash my knee the second day fixing an old truck? Who was going to cook? What did they mean by, “watch out for grizzlies”? Why were we upgraded from 30-06 to 400 magnum rifles?
- Then, things got so much worse!
- We made really good friends with some of the Eskimos. One night, when Lenny had a little too much to drink, he INSISTED we “sleep with his wife”. I WASN’T THAT STUPID! BUT, Eskimo ways aren’t like those from the lower 48. When we said “no thanks”, the world again turned upside down. He headed home to get his rifle!
- Back at the base commander’s office. “I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU… NEVER MIND. PACK ALL YOUR THINGS. 2 HOURS MAX! Stay INVISIBLE until we get you on a plane.
- Then, things got so much worse!
*** By the way, I was actually on that failed expedition. JUDGE FOR YOURSELF! How much of this story was “really” fiction ! ! !
The short intro above doesn’t “break the ice” about what the book presents. It’s a treasure trove of profound discoveries about our world:
- A new structure for morality, values, good and evil, freewill, the meaning of life, the social order.
- It directly addresses the “Multiple Religions Problem” and endless religious wars.
- Explanations of the corruption of the entire world business model, the fallacy of modern psychology, the collapse of university education.
- LIARS! Vol. 1 and 2 present, in dialog form, the foundation for my new series Collapse 2020.
