Two Tickets To Paradise lyrics

Got a surprise especially for you,
Something that both of us have always wanted to do.
We've waited so long, waited so long.
We've waited so long, waited so long.

I'm gonna take you on a trip so far from here,
I've got two tickets in my pocket, now baby, we're gonna disappear.
We've waited so long, waited so long.
We've waited so long, waited so long.

I've got two tickets to paradise,
Won't you pack your bags, we'll leave tonight,
I've got two tickets to paradise,
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/e/eddie-money-lyrics/two-tickets-to-paradise-lyrics.html]
I've got two tickets to paradise.

oh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh
oh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh-uh-oh

I'm gonna take you on a trip so far from here,
I've got two tickets in my pocket, now baby, we're gonna disappear.
We've waited so long, waited so long.
We've waited so long, waited so long.

I've got two tickets to paradise,
Won't you pack your bags, we'll leave tonight,
I've got two tickets to paradise,
I've got two tickets to paradise.

Greetings and Salutations;

Not much to say, that already hasn't been said. The messengers on the internet have been banging away, shouting the blues of a changing world, where no one can figure out who the good guys and bad guys are, just 'opinions'. So I'm going to post some links so you make some inform decisions as your pockets get filled and you pass thru the door way into the future;

Now here's the blow to the fed system and fiat money;

http://www.examiner.com/article/dollar-no-longer-primary-oil-currency-as-china-begins-to-sell-oil-using-yuan

Bernanke can't print anymore because the owners of the fed had the plates melted down in china a couple years ago. Look at the dollar you have in your pocket, I defy you to find anything with date beyond 2010. The military knows this because they helped have all those printing presses taken apart around the world. and the machines melted down.

Didn't MK tell many of you, there'd be blood on the streets when this finally happened? Well don't get your hair on fire now, as you see it happen. This is when you need calm resolve and a clear mind. Go to the sea or up in the mountains and let it all come together in clarity, the path you choose to walk as the new world manifests all around you. Even folks that know exactly what's up in this world are tripping on themselves. What to do when the old world is disappearing and it can't be recreated? Do a false flag like what just happen in the middle east and try and get the war mongering neocons back in office and try to get another war started. As eisenhower said as he left office all those years ago..'beware of the military industrial complex'. You're watching them work ya right now, screaming..Patriotism!

The stuff is flying in the atmosphere and no one is escaping the angst. Everyone has been warned but many try to make it different than what it is, the speeding up of the vibration of the earth.This earth is going somewhere and it's being masked by energetic veils that are like holograms, soon it's part and all humanity will see. You'll look up and see two suns in the sky and we'll no longer be on the edge of the milky way.

That's enough of that, stick a fork in me and plate me, I'm done.
Have fun, see you later, out there in the new system of things.

Love and Kisses,

Poofness

OIL, DOLLARS AND THE FRACTURING WORLD OF TODAY!



I have paid attention to Linsey Williams for some time now. Thus far, all of his predictions - which are based upon what the insider elite have told him - have come to pass - usually the very month he predicts them. Last year, he said the elite plan on crashing the worldwide economy by this October & starting WWIII in the Middle East. With the Arab Spring more furious than ever and all the banking/bailout tricks going on, it looks like we are right on course. The information below is, I believe, vital...   JAN

The Brics are NOW called - BRIICS ... meaning = Brazil, Russia, India, Indonesia, China, & South Africa ... more are on their way!! China & Russia signed a deal on Sept 6th which is HUGE as Russia agreed to sell unlimited supply of OIL to China & the KEY is to do this WITHOUT the Petro-Dollar (USD).... there are over 20 other countries looking to do the same.... many believe it is to Break the back of the Oil Cartel of Petro-Dollar...

End of an empire? Huge shift in economics Thu Sep 13, 2012 4:29 pm (PDT). Dollar no longer primary oil currency as China begins to sell oil using Yuan.    http://www.examiner.com/article/dollar-no-longer-primary-oil-currency-as-china-begins-to-sell-oil-using-yuan

[Precious] shasta7 yes I read that..someone wanted to know who the 5 countries were....It is big trouble now

[shasta7] Precious ... yup ... Indonesia is the NEWest member... lol

[Precious] shasta7 things are really brewing now

[shasta7] Precious YES... it is just a matter of time... most countries around the world are scrambling to get rid of their US Bonds...


[shasta7]  I believe the Dollar value will start crashing... the PTB are in deperate mode... & have no answers... as the fiat system is accellerating at an alarming pace... The Fed Res is shooting blanks... notice no one has heard from Timothy Geithner??? Very odd...... don't ya think!!!

[shasta7] BUT... because of hyper-inflation... the prices could sky-rocket... to $150-$200 a barrel

[newshound] Yes that is after the bomb shell he let loose, I think this will make Americans take a look at how we can pull together and make use of all the blessings that the Lord has given us to use. This will not come without some painfull situations. When we stop passing out $$$ to all these other countries and help our own people we can make our politicians answer to the people again.

[Precious] shasta7 did you listen to Lindsey Williams?

[Precious] he predicted gas oil to 150-200 barrel and says the US tricks the ME and that the mideast will have disruptions like we are seeing now....hmmm

[shasta7] Isn't he the guy connected to Alaska oil companies...

[Precious] he was a pastor for the Elite

[Precious] yes he flew up there and also told about the Bakkon oil find

[shasta7] Precious ... ok I know of him... he released some secrets...

[Precious] yes..all coming true as he said he was told from the elite.

[Precious] We have more oil than the entire world put together if we would use that Alaska find

[shasta7] Lindsey Williams:
"The most significant day in the history of the American dollar, since its inception, happened on Thursday, Sept. 6. On that day, something took place that is going to affect your life, your family, your dinner table more than you can possibly imagine." "On Thursday, Sept. 6... just a few days ago, China made the official announcement. China said on that day, our banking system is ready, all of our communication systems are ready, all of the transfer systems are ready, and as of that day, Thursday, Sept. 6, any nation in the world that wishes from this point on, to buy, sell, or trade crude oil, can do using the Chinese currency, not the American dollar. - Interview with Natty Bumpo on the Just Measures Radio network, Sept. 11<    http://justmeasurescs.com/?page_id=18

[shasta7] This announcement by China is one of the most significant sea changes in the global economic and monetary systems, but was barely reported on due to its announcement taking place during the Democratic convention last week. The ramifications of this new action are vast, and could very well be the catalyst that brings down the dollar as the global reserve currency, and change the entire landscape of how the world purchases energy. Ironically, since Sept. 6, the U.S. dollar has fallen from 81.467 on the index  > to today's price of 79.73. While analysts will focus on actions taking place in the Eurozone, and expected easing signals from the Federal Reserve on Thursday regarding the fall of the dollar, it is not coincidence that the dollar began to lose strength on the very day of China's announcement.

http://www.fxstreet.com/rates-charts/usdollar-index/?version=1

[shasta7]
Since China is not a natural oil producing nation, the question most people will ask is how will the Asian economic power get enough oil to affect dollar hegemony? That question was also answered by Lindsey Williams when he pointed out a new trade agreement that was signed on Sept. 7 between China and Russia . http://www.examiner.com/topic/russia   in which the Russian Federation agreed to sell oil to China in any and all amounts they desired. Lindsey Williams: "This has never happened in the history of crude oil. Since crude oil became the motivating force behind our (U.S.) entire economy, and everything in our lives revolves around crude oil. And since crude oil became the motivating factor behind our economy... never, ever has crude oil been sold, bought, traded, in any country in the world, without using the American dollar."

[Precious] that also means Iran can trade in yuan and avoid the sanctions

[Precious] so far they have kept this out of the news here

[shasta7] "Crude oil is the standard currency of the world. Not the Yen, not the Pound, not the Dollar. More money is transferred around the world in crude oil than in any other product." "On Friday, Sept. 7, Russia announced, that as of today, we will supply China with all of the crude oil that they need, no matter how much they want... there is no limit. And Russia will not sell or trade this crude oil to China using the American dollar." -Interview with Natty Bumpo on the Just Measures Radio network, Sept. 11<  
These duo actions by the two most powerful adversaries of the U.S. economy and empire, have now joined in to make a move to attack the primary economic stronghold that keeps America as the most powerful economic superpower. Once the majority of the world begins to bypass the dollar, and purchase oil in other currencies, then the full weight of our debt and diminished manufacturing structure will come crashing down on the American people. http://justmeasurescs.com/?page_id=18

[unicorn] it seems to me that this is the beginning of the NEW WORLD ORDER

[Precious]
everyone should google youtube Secret of OZ............tells how the PTB came into control............and how the banks steal our money. it is one hour and what an education....based on the Wizard of Oz story.  it is really really good and gets better every minute you listen

New Tomorrow and important Updates ----- Global settlements, etc.



I have to send my friend Aaron from Soldier Hugs a HUGE thank you for sending me the link to this article: http://www.soldierhugs.com/off-ledger-global-collateral-accounts/
"New Tomorrow" has put together the most succinct and well documented history of the golden road and how we got to where we are now financially that I have ever read.  Sorry David, but this article even outstrips your "Financial Tyranny" articles.


Part 1 and 2 are complete and are very in depth with tons of links to supporting documents- a long read, but well well worth the time.


Part 1 can be read HERE
Part 2 can be read HERE
I will post a section of Part 2 that deals with our current situation in regards to the collateral accounts and the Gold bonds that are part of the Keenan suit, but first I want to give an update on several things I've spoken about in the past few weeks.


We've always known that those in the positions of being decision makers and power movers have been liberally spraying smoke screens and at times spreading outright lies to keep people off balance and confused.  The implementation of the new financial system and the release of the World Global Settlements and various other funds, and the Global Currency Revaluation has been kept under the heaviest blanket of secrecy imaginable and they don't want to give anyone the ability to "KNOW" when it's all going to happen.  In the past week we've had this lesson driven home as we've realized that several of those whom we thought were working with us, were in fact withholding vital information.


Regardless of the questionable sources, our own personal sources have confirmation of very vital information.  We are extremely excited about our current situation and where we all stand.


The prosperity packages are rolling out very very quickly right now- and we are looking for a magic number to trigger the event we are waiting for.


The World Global Settlements have been launched and that money is already on it's way around the world.


The Wanta Reagan Mitterrand Protocol/Funds have been released.


The Soekarno funds are Not part of the WGS and have not yet been released.


I'm currently working confirmation that mortgages in the US are being paid off and trying to get clarification of which program/funds are involved. 


"Casper's" latest report  was a huge pile of disinfo and lies. I've suspected that he's is a disinformation specialist for a while, and this report absolutely confirms it.  A few facts mixed with a whole lot of bull crap.

The Federal Reserve is NOT printing more money.   They have not printed money since 2009, and haven't printed even a single bill to replace the old and tattered bills since 2010.  You can't print anything if you don't have printing presses or paper. QE3 is not what it seems nor what is being reported in the media.

Kerry from Project Camelot posted THIS yesterday:


I am being told there are at least 3 confirmations of something going on off the coast of San Francisco, involving US Navy Ships and an unknown number of Chinese vessels.  I am being told this involves the arrest of possibly around 600 bankers.. who may be being held in a US ship... under arrest by the Hague.  The arrests are being carried out by the U.S. military.At this time, regardless of the fact that i have more data I am being asked by at least one source not to go into any more detail than that.  Apparently there are a number of operations going on at this time.At least one source has suggested that this may actually be a cover operation for something more far reaching.
 This week I had two separate sources pass me this information as well.

Regardless of the people out there bashing Drake and his messages, the arrests are taking place- quietly- and as soon as a certain financial event takes place, we will hear much more on this topic. 


I know that the vast majority of people are unwilling, or incapable, of believing in something they can't see or hear in the media.  It takes a leap of faith to put your hope on something unseen...

...but that's where we are at right now.  I can tell you some of what I know is happening, the rest is a leap that is a combination of faith, hope, and following your inner voice that deep inside tells you that change is here.

After Next Week, House Stopping Work Until Election


Interesting ....could it be ??  FINALLY !! 
 The long awaited  'beginning of the end'  to GOVERNMENT and BANKING BUSINESS AS USUAL ??  We sure hope so...time will tell. 
And of course Agenda 21 bill introducer 20 years ago (Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif)

After Next Week, House Stopping Work Until Election
By Billy House | Friday, September 14, 2012 | 1:09 p.m.


Photo: AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite

Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., announced on Friday that, after next week, the House won’t be returning to session until after the Nov. 6 elections.

A planned one-week session in Washington at the start of October has been scrapped. That means when the House adjourns next Friday, the chamber will not be scheduled to cast any votes again until Nov. 13.

Speaking on the House floor, Cantor said that the decision for House members not to return to the Capitol in October has been made given the Senate’s anticipated passage next week of a bill to keep government running beyond the Oct. 1 start of the new fiscal year, a bill already passed on Thursday in the House.

The House still plans to hold its session next week as scheduled, starting next Wednesday evening, through Friday. One bill Republicans plan to bring to the floor next week would create a new green-card category for foreigners who have received doctorate degrees from U.S. universities in science, technology, engineering, and math (the so-called STEM disciplines).

Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, D-Md., responded on the floor with some incredulity, saying that although there remains much legislation left to be completed, Cantor’s announcement means that lawmakers now have about two days of session work remaining. The two then argued about which party is to blame for stalled or no action on such issues as the farm bill, postal-service reform, the Violence Against Women Act, and renewing the George W. Bush-era tax cuts.

At one point, when Cantor included the farm bill in his comments about Democratic refusal to engage in “real reform” in some of those bills, Hoyer fired back that it is the House Republican leadership that has chosen not to bring a bipartisan bill to the floor.

On Thursday, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., had said she did not know for sure, but was worried that Republicans were planning not to return in October.

She told reporters, “I want you to know the Democrats stand ready to be here for as long as it takes to pass a jobs bill, to come to agreement on a budget bill, to avoid the sequester..." -- the scheduled cuts to defense and domestic spending set for Jan. 2.

“Unfortunately, the Do Nothing Congress wants to go home,” Pelosi said.
“Instead of leaving town for seven weeks after being gone for four or five weeks [this summer], let's work across the aisle to restore fiscal responsibility, put people to work, and strengthen the middle class. We absolutely have to do that for the American people,” she said.

United States federal government, in partnership with the federal reserve banking cartel, have been committing grand larceny against its citizens and lying about it


http://www.newtomorrow.us/ (conclusion excerpt from)

Part I: Secret Societies
The Committee of 300, The Jesuits, 13 Illuminati Papal Bloodline Families, The Corporation of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, The Federal Reserve Bank, Operation Paperclip & MK-Ultra

--- 
July, 2011 - Partial Audit of the Federal Reserve
Yet another story, that has gone almost completely unreported on mainstream media networks, is the story of the results of a partial audit on the Federal Reserve. This audit was many years in the making, as the central banking cartel fought it tooth and nail. The results of this audit reveal, unequivocally, one of the biggest lies in U.S. government history: That the full amount of the bailouts given to the banks total $26 trillion dollars(!) Did you catch that? $26 trillion dollars. This after the federal government had perpetrated a lie by telling us that the true amount of the bailouts was just over $1 trillion dollars. This information is verified on the websites of three high ranking politicians who have led the charge in this investigation: Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, U.S. Congressman Alan Grayson and Congressman Ron Paul.

Sanders
Grayson

What this proves, again, is that the
United States federal government, in partnership with the federal reserve banking cartel, have been committing grand larceny against its citizens and lying about it. When you, really, sit back and consider the ramifications of this, it means, in no uncertain terms, that every member of the federal reserve, every leading figure of every major bank, and a vast majority of the federal government, should be put on trial for theft and fraud. Their acts are in direct violation of the United States Constitution, the very same document that they have sworn to uphold. The power now rests in the hands of we the people to hold these thieves accountable for their actions. And yet, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

In Part II of this research article, we shall delve even more deeply into the true nature of the financial system, and what we will find are some shocking revelations, most notably: The existence of a financial superfund,
called The Black Eagle Trust, that contains vast amounts of the gold, precious metals, jewels and diamonds of the ancient world, plundered by the Allied forces during World War II. It is this fund that has been used to steer global policy for the past 65+ years. Yet, as we shall see in Part II of this report, the global elitists of the West have not obtained this gold without a price, and they now find themselves held responsible to powerful forces in the Asian world, who are demanding retribution

Steve Beckow 9-16-12… “Much Ado About NESARA: An Update”

I felt this article by Steve Beckow was worth putting out here. I have felt all along that the so-called Libya incident was completely manufactured (by "the cabal") in an attempt to delay something, cause chaos, etc., etc., etc. And that something was likely NESARA. But the article by Steve formulates what is going on with the prosperity programs upcoming soon, to a theater and home near you...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NESARA is ready for introduction, apparently, and is just awaiting the right moment. At the same time, lower-level members of the cabal, not in containment, are causing as much mayhem as they can and their latest wrench in the works – an anti-Muslim movie – has caused a short interruption. But we’re told matters will soon be back on track.
Perhaps you’re aware, as I’ve been, that it’s been very, very quiet recently, aside from the outbreak of violence in the Middle East. This may have been because we were on the verge of NESARA’s introduction. Let’s review what has been said about NESARA recently. Obviously as much as possible, the people readying necessary are not hanging signs out their windows. But we have been given hints.
For instance, on Sept. 6, 2012, St. Germain delivered a message in poetry through Valerie Donner, which in essence said that the cabal was finished and NESARA was right in front of our eyes:
“Can’t you see their faces? We washed all the dirty laundry, and we still have a few more things to do to improve their places.
“I’m telling you now that the whole of it is right in front of us.” (1)
On Sept. 10, on An Hour with an Angel, I asked Sanat Kumara, who is the Planetary Logos, if NESARA would be announced on Sept. 11, 2012.
SB: NESARA was due to be announced on September 11th, 2001. Now, to my way of thinking, if I were a member of the highest universal council, I would choose September 11th, 2012 to announce NESARA. Is there any possibility that NESARA will be announced tomorrow?
SK: There is always a possibility of that, and you know it to be true. (2)
On Sept. 14, in a personal reading, Archangel Michael revealed that in fact NESARA “was intended to begin, as you have guessed, on 9/11. And there has been disruption, as you know. There has been disruption with the bombings in the Middle East [the embassy attacks]. So it is… it is a brief interruption, not a long interruption.”
I asked him how people could be in containment and still act out and he revealed that the disruption is coming from low levels of people not in containment.
“The disruption is twofold. One, it is those who have not [been put in containment] and we are talking rather low levels, actually, so do not look for massive conspiracies. Although we do know that there are some, even as they were not in containment, who would love to take advantage of such chaos. But what it is doing is bringing to the forefront the collective choice to say, ‘No more.’” (3)
Let’s have a look at what mostly SaLuSa tells us about that progress since it’s he among our sources who reports most often on matters like NESARA.
SaLuSa acknowledges the tediousness of waiting and the activity behind the scenes.
“We know that waiting for significant events that you expect any day now can be tedious, but you will have your day of satisfaction and excitement. You can after all see evidence around you of the changes, and even more is going on that is not apparent.” (4)
SaLuSa said on Sept. 14 that “until the dark Ones are removed they will still try to interfere with your progress, believing that somehow they will still succeed. They will learn that they have little power left and cannot return to their previous level of control.” (5) Some time back, he assured us that “the weight of evidence against those who have corrupted the banking system is overwhelming.” (6)
On Sept. 12, he observed that “the fact that much is happening in your world has not gone unnoticed, and for those who are just awakening to it, it seems that chaos reigns.”
“Your traditional trusted institutions such as your banks are being seen for what they really are, but as yet the answers to their problems have not surfaced. However, the plans to cover such an eventuality as their collapse have been formulated. As with much of our allies work, it is ready to be implemented and waiting the right opportunity to be introduced. The old corrupt system will not be retained, and the new one is receiving support for the far reaching changes that it will bring.” (7)
His comment that “it is ready to be implemented and waiting the right opportunity to be introduced” lines up with Archangel Michael’s statement that its introduction was disturbed by the anti-Muslim actions of Terry Jones and others and the reaction of Middle-Eastern populations.
Sanat Kumara told us in An Hour with an Angel on Sept. 10 a little about NESARA and India. He said that “NESARA will be coming through the, what you think of as the, parliamentary system in India, so that it will not cause massive dislocation.” (8) He then discussed how NESARA was in part designed to correct instances of oppression like the caste system. He remarks that followed were as applicable to the rest of the world as they were to India:
“Now, you see the breaking of that wall, and if you do not, then come with me and I will show it to you. And what you think of as NESARA, it may not appear exactly as you think, but it will appear, and there will be equalization. Because when you are entering into a reality — and understand, this is one of the guideposts that is saying you are shifting dimensions — so it is fitting, because we do not wish to create complete breakdown and chaos, because that will result in fear, that will result in rioting, that will result in injury. So that would simply feed the old third.” (9)
SaLuSa tells us something very similar: that the financial wing of the cabal has fallen apart and won’t be resurrected.

Constitutional Experts Call Obama’s Abuse Of Executive Power Historic: Where’s Darrel Issa?

As president, Barack Obama has made a habit of bypassing or ignoring constitutional limitations on his power, a panel of experts told the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday.
Obama’s claiming of executive privilege during the Fast and Furious debacle has already faded from the headlines, and it may be hard to remember the weight of the outrage expressed at the beginning of the year, when Obama made a handful of unilateral “recess” appointments, opting to bypass a Senate that wasn’t actually in recess.
But these incidents and a number of others were strung together at the hearing as proof of a dangerous trend in the administration.
“The administration has repeatedly put its partisan agenda above the rule of law,” committee chairman Lamar Smith (R-Texas) said. “In doing so, it has eroded the constitutional and legal foundation that have kept America prosperous and free for over 200 years.”
Smith enumerated other instances of alleged presidential overreach, including Obama’s decision to stop enforcing parts of U.S. immigration law to allow illegal aliens to stay in the country legally if they meet certain criteria and waivers issued to the No Child Left Behind Act and welfare reform bill that Smith said “effectively rewrite the law instead of enforcing it.”
“Just because you don’t like a law, doesn’t mean you can ignore it,” Smith said. “Many people have gone to jail for doing just that.”
He did not call for legal action against the president of the sort that some legislators took when Obama took military action in Libya without consulting Congress, but let Obama’s record speak for itself as examples of presidential overreach that should not become future presidential habit.
Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) a noted constitutional scholar in Congress and a witness on the panel, told the committee that Obama’s abuse of power by making recess appointments while the Senate was not actually in recess was a historic first.
“No president has ever made a unilateral appointment during an adjournment lasting less than three days,” he said.
Lee also noted that executive privilege had been misused in the case of Fast and Furious, Congress pressed for full documentation of the operation following the discovery that a previous Department of Justice letter about the matter had been intentionally misleading and inaccurate.
“The privilege disappears altogether whenever there is any reason to believe government misconduct has occurred,” Lee said.

Lori Windham, senior counsel to the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, testified that the Obama administration’s decision to require religious organizations to supply contraceptives and abortifacients to their employees or pay a fine was part of a longer tradition by Obama of dismissing religious concerns. Arguing last year in favor of churches and other houses of worship choosing clergy according to their own religious principles without interference in the Supreme Court case Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church and School v. EEOC, she said, “I was not alone in my shock when the Obama Administration’s lawyers opposed our position by arguing that churches are no different than bowling clubs, and that our First Amendment guarantee of religious freedom does not protect religious organizations.”
Ultimately, the court ruled unanimously in favor of religious groups.
Windham said the administration’s actions set a dangerous precedent that extended beyond religious practice.
“If the government can trample First Amendment freedoms, then none of our fundamental rights are secure,” she said.
Ultimately, Lee said even those who support Obama should understand the need for accountability and challenges to his actions when he oversteps his constitutional bounds.
“These things happen not because we’ve had bad men as presidents. We haven’t,” he said. “We’ve had good men, and that includes our current president. These things happen because presidents are human beings.”
The system, he said, includes checks and balances for a reason.
“We cannot ignore abuses of power. Because if we ignore them, they become part of established practice and tradition,” he said.
