| _ Richard Cory_Whenever Richard Cory went down town,
We people on the pavement looked at him: He was a gentleman from sole to crown, Clean-favoured and imperially slim. And he was always quietly arrayed, And he was always human when he talked; But still he fluttered pulses when he said, "Good Morning!" and he glittered when he walked. And he was rich, yes, richer than a king, And admirably schooled in every grace: In fine -- we thought that he was everything To make us wish that we were in his place. So on we worked and waited for the light, And went without the meat and cursed the bread, And Richard Cory, one calm summer night, Went home and put a bullet in his head. Edwin Arlington Robinson |
This site supports the Global Insurrection Against Banker Occupation and Proudly supports the Silver Liberation Army
![]() Silver Bullets kill suicide bankers and financial terrorists as well as vampires and werewolves!
"People who want to side with the bankers are doing so willfully and the consequences will be dealt with accordingly. Those who want to take down these terrorists are doing hard work. It is a global effort to do so…
This is a grand battle that is taking place. We will see who wins at the end. I have got my bets on the global insurrection." - Max Keiser |

The Actual Earthbus is For Sale!
Well you heard it here first! Before listing this site's namesake on craigslist.com, I figured this is the best place to announce the news.
The Earthbus has a 7.3 liter diesel engine in a Ford E-350 chassis with the body finished by Blue Bird Company which makes it look like a mini-bus. Originally, the bus was used by a daycare center in Pennsylvania, so although it doesn't have the 'ambulance package' it is a very solid, road-lovin' vehicle which handles a lot like a good ol' Ford Pick Up truck.
After service with the daycare center, the bus had a short tenure as the road van for a band before it was purchased by a couple of young idealistic and naive kids who drove it to Florida and painted it with blue and green house paint. Those two kids had read about the fundamentals of veggie oil powered diesel, so they got themselves a bunch of copper tubing and wrapped it many, many times around the manifold and exhaust system and "T-ed" it off into the fuel line. They also took a 55-gallon drum of oil filtered through hotel-room sheets and dropped the bus's front heater core into it to pre-heat it. With this cobbled-together system and with all best intentions, they drove back up to Pennsylvania with more young fool, idealistic crusading plans of driving the newly dubbed Earthbus to Alaska. Luckily, the parents of the young, stupid couple preempted that plan by buying up some undeveloped land and deeding it over to them leading them to list the bus on ebay.com in order to raise money to build a shelter and start the organic farming.
Meanwhile, in the bustling Burlington, Vermont two other two other idealistic and naive kids were not adjusting to life so far north from there origins in Texas and had decided to look into getting a "Diesel Camper" which they could convert to run on recycled veggie oil which they could collect along the way back down south. With those words into ebay, the Earthbus appeared into our lives; it was as though "Universe was calling our bluff."
So its been several years since the Earthbus has traveled; the transmission needs to be replaced, the water-pump area is leaking, the power steering pump leaks, there is an unfortunate but manageable hole in the veggie-oil fuel line-carrying heater hose, the paint job of house paint is in a terrible condition, the inside is built out of 2x4s and plywood and could ripped-out and replaced with lighter weight materials in other configurations, and the tires are pretty old and need to be replaced. But the engine is good and runs very well!
I would be happy to have a long discussion of everything that's happened and what is going on with it, but let's get down to it shall we? As far as what I want for it, I WANT about $5,000 in Federal Reserve Notes but would take $3,000. But really, I don't want cash for the Earthbus, I want SILVER!! I would rather take 85 ounces of pure silver rounds than cash -- so if you were smart and bought silver when it was still less than $20 per ounce, then this would be a GREAT DEAL!!!!!!
Please contact me if you would like more information and want to talk about a deal.
