Moon for Sale

Moon for Sale, originally uploaded by Dark Sevier.

I just found out about the Lunar Republic. I didn't know the Moon had a republic, but it does, and it's on Earth.

The Republic of the Moon has claimed part of the Moon, and is selling it to raise money to get there. Yep. It's all legal according to their website. They are selling 1 acre for only $20.00, on the sunny side (that way they don't interfere with Dick Cheney's ranch on the Dark Side).


I'm considering staging a coup de tat in the Lunar Republic. We just have to get there before they do, put on space monster suits and point ray guns at them, brainwash them, then have them sign over their leases and use them as slave labor to build a hydroponic green house. Then...

Wait, this just in...

I've been following the rise of the Lunar Republic for over two weeks now. They apearantly have a moon monopoly. From what I gather, the Lunar Republic aren't the only ones to have laid claim on the Moon, though they claim to be the only legitimate ones. The town of Geneva Ohio claimed it in 1966. A Berkeley science fiction club claimed part of it. A Chilean lawyer claimed the whole thing (apearently Nixon asked his permission for the NASA to land there in '69).

Then there is Dennis Hope's Lunar Embassy that claims to have sold over 300,000 acres on the Moon since 1980. He also claims exclusive rights to our Moon, eight other planets, and their moons. Some of the Moon real estate entities have been to court on their claims. Some judges throw them out claiming no jurisdiction over the Moon.

The US and Russia planted their flags there, but the UN prevented them from claiming it for themselves. Reportedly, the Lunar Republic have been in talks with India and Russia's space programs. The Republic wants to help fund Lunar missions in order to have their real estate registry delivered, thus sealing their claim.

In 2004 President W. Bush pledged to go back to the Moon and build a Lunar base for a mission to Mars. Ferrell Jackson, Managing Director for the Lunar Republic Society, claims the US can no longer afford it.

It sounds like the Moon is still up for grabs, until someone actually homesteads the place.

I wonder if I could be sued for transcribing a musing on the notion that the Lunar Republic funded Al Queda to initiate a war that has drained the US's Space budget. While the US is buisy with Iraq, Iran, and North Korea, the Lunar Republic Is talking to Russia and India. Just a thought.

Here'a another conjecturial thought:

What if the billions of the mystery dollars that Halliburton shines away each year is being spent on Dick Cheney's Dark Side Lunar Bunker. The Moon Treaty says that's a no-no, but when does Dick and Co. regard anything other than their own plans and plots?

Went to bed after that last paragraph and woke today to read THIS on the Washington Post. "U.S. Planning to Build Base on Moon to prepare for Trip to Mars". Last night was the first time I'd thought about Bush's space plan since it was news two years ago. Maybe the writer read my blog last night. Maybe Bush read my blog and decided he'd better throw it in gear lest the Lunar Republic show up the USofA. I'd much rather hear Bush talking about Moon dust and Martian water than Terrists and Armageddon.

King of the World

I usually don't get too topical, as far as "news" and politics goes. I like to try and write things that are timeless, that might have some poetic quality that allows it to live longer than the time it takes me to write it.

Well, treason is timeless. Mass hysteria is timeless. Dictatorships are timeless. Throughout my blog I have crypticly peppered hyperlinks to un-news: the undercurrent of the mainstream. A swift and cold undercurrent. I am moved to now to present some not so cryptic hyperlinks:

EX-REPUBLICAN SUPREME COURT JUDGE WARNS OF THE NATIONS DESCENT INTO DICTATORSHIP.

BYU PHYSICS PROFESSOR CLAIMS THE COLAPSE OF THE WORLD TRADE TOWERS IMPOSSIBLE... WITHOUT PYROTECHNIC HELP.

BUSH BUSTED FOR IGNORING CONSTITUTION...AGAIN.

I'm now compelled to re-post some hyperlinks I put up in October '04:

DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE WORLD BEFORE 9-11?
