For the past couple of years, I’ve been running several blogs – which has been profitable, but sometimes confusing – for me and for others. Here’s the deal – in 2009 I sold this site for a reasonable profit – I wanted a domain with my name though – so I made VagoDamitio.com my go…
We’re All Fucked – Even You.
Okay, the bad news first – We’re all fucked. Now that we have that out of the way – let’s move on to the good news – oh, wait – there’s not any. We’re all fucked and that is all there is to it. How are we fucked? Well – let’s look at freedom. Think…
Revelation Made Clear – The Breaking of the Seven Seals
The end days are upon us – I’m no Christian, but here’s some pretty clear revelation for you…. First Seal: A white horse appears, whose crowned rider has a bow with which to conquer. (6:1–2) – this is Putin in Crimea Second Seal: A red horse appears, whose rider is granted a “great sword” to…
The Internet Isn’t What We Thought It Would Be….
Back in the 1990’s I was an activist. Even while I was still in the Marine Corps, I was placing Greenpeace stickers on garbage cans in the barracks and trying hard to bring about little changes in consciousness – granted, it was probably the wrong place to do it and that might explain why I…
A 99 Day Break from Facebook
UPDATE: Just a few days in and I already find that I have extra time on my hands. It’s amazing how when I have a spare moment on the computer or in the shop or at home, my mind says “Check out Facebook” and then when I don’t I realize – “Hey, I don’t need…
Matter and Matters
Sometimes (actually most of the time) it’s far too easy to get caught up in this world of matter. This world of financial responsibilities, bills, wars, rumours of wars, and again financial matters – most especially money. Money, money, money, money, money, money, money. It’s what makes this ridiculous world go around. Right? Nope….

Young men in Edgecombe and Nash Counties who previously might have gone…

America – One Month in the USA – Bank Robbery, Prison, Squatting, Ambulances, and Dinosaurs
It’s been a month since we arrived in the USA – we haven’t seen a lot of the country, but we have seen a lot. We saw a bank robbery in Millbrae, California when we went to go meet my friend for dinner. Officers had the Bank of America surrounded and were using AR-15s and…
The American Project
The American Project by Vago Damitio http://www.vagodamitio.com/ I’m considering a new direction and project in my life and work.
