Weird how memory can be so wrong

Not sure the first time I saw the 1965 "The Bedford Incident"

Most likely did not see it while on active-duty US Navy enlisted from 1984 to 1990. Cannot believe now all these decades later it was a movie they would let us see at sea

There are two details that cause me to refer to it in this note

The first detail is dialog from that medical-doctor on the ship.

That became more important to me because only today I noted the release date for New York City

One other detail is how I seem to have somehow created a false-memory about it. Apparently, I viewed it in the year 2011. There are references in my journal that begin in year 2011 and I guess it was because I had viewed it just then. Somehow, a false memory was created in my mind that the US Navy ship was a Leahy-class or Belknap-class. They were basically the same type, as I understand, only with different armament and looking at the ship from in front of the bow, they were basically identical. Now I see now nothing like that skimming through the video. I learned today it was actually a British ship they used for the real images, some sort of plastic model ship for other imagery.

This becomes relevant to me because of the doctor's dialog.

This note began because of surgery performed on me while active-duty

Began with leg pain after I transferred from my first ship and was in school for almost two years

Eventually, after many doctor visits, the one doctor I visited at that hospital in Charleston, South Carolina, told me of tension exercises I could perform easily to alleviate the pain

I completely believe he was right

At the time, however, I literally scoffed at the suggestion

What was probably caused by the those bunks we all slept in, with a thin mattress over a metal plate, could have probably been eliminated with exercise. I was no longer standing upright all the time, after all those countless hour on bridge-watch and other watch-standing, and muscles might have contracted and tightened, causing pain.

I went on active-duty 3 days after graduating high-school. I was in excellent physical condition from several menial-labor employments I had for summers and after-school. Also, aged 18 years there was one fact about me that was completely obvious: I was 100% dependable.

I have already researched the dates that surgery was scheduled and performed and I am looking at that again now, because of Pluribus, causing me to literally think of yesterday

Whatever is happening here, it's very real to me

If I'm right then it is completely unstoppable by now

How it turns out is anybody's guess and that's all I can do



The 1965 "The Bedford Incident" is a dramatic and suspenseful story and there is absolutely no rational reason it would be the root-cause of anything I discover.









Dialog from today is what caused me to generate the new content in this note.

Key controlled block cipher cryptographic system

Mar 25, 1975 - IBM

A cryptographic system for encrypting a block of binary data under the control of a key consisting of a set of binary symbols. The cryptographic system may be utilized within a data processing environment to ensure complete privacy of data and information that is stored or processed within a computing system. All authorized subscribers who are permitted access to data within the network are assigned a unique key consisting of a combination of binary symbols. The central processing unit within the computing network contains a complete listing of all distributed authorized subscriber keys. All communications transmitted from terminal input are encrypted into a block cipher by use of the cryptographic system operating under the control of the subscriber key which is inputed to the terminal device. At the receiving station or central processing unit, an identical subscriber key which is obtained from internal tables stored within the computing system is used to decipher all received ciphered communications.

The Bedford Incident (1965)

(from internet transcript)

You see, sir, it's been my observance
of the men on this ship that...
It's occurred to me that most
of them are just...
...sitting around
on their dead butts all day.
- What did you say?
- Don't get me wrong.
I mean of necessity. You see, scientific
work is necessarily sedentary.
Therefore, I thought that
a physical-fitness program...
...would be just in order.
Bodies toned, trained, developed.
No flabbies, no flabbies around.
The men all fit
and shipshape, so to say.
- Yeah.
- Now, this can be accomplished...
...with isometric exercises.
- How's that again?
- Isometric, sir.
It's all done with tension.
Tense, relax. Tense, relax.
Tense, relax.
Tense, relax. Tense, relax.
Tense, relax. Tense, relax.
Tense, relax. You can do it anywhere.
Yeah, I think I've grasped
the idea, doc. ls that all?
- Of the entire program?
- Yeah.
No, sir.
There are two more essentials.
Mental health is one.
I thought we could introduce
group therapy...
...and individual counselling
whenever necessary.
With men at sea, it seemed
a logical step, sir.
Isolation, separation from family.
Not to mention women.
You see, sir, that's the real hell
of it on these long trips.
- Men without women--
- Yeah, yeah. Go on.
Well, the exercise will help there.









by me, Kerry Burgess, 02/21/2023, excerpts

The facts as I remember it all seem so tantalizing consistent to me. I've explored several different possibilities and explanations, such as "time travel information". The theory that people with knowledge of future events knew that event would happen in Iowa, they couldn't stop it, but what they could do was send me along clandestinely, for some reason, among several I have theorized. So - because of that knowledge of the future - I theorize - this code-pattern begins to exhibit a familiar pattern pointing to the event in Iowa.

But I ain't mad.

Begins for me with surgery on 04/19/1989. Precisely three months later is the event in Iowa.









by me, Kerry Burgess, excerpts from my private journals: 03/24/07 3:52 AM

I find myself thinking of some "memories" of when I was assigned to the USS Wainwright. The ship had left port for a short regional deployment and I stayed back because I had a medical appointment on base. Or something like that. Not really sure why I didn't leave with the ship but it was because of some appointment on base. After that appointment, there was a period before the ship was due back when I was assigned to work in an office there on base.

Bursitis

From Wikipedia

Bursitis is the inflammation of one or more bursae (synovial sacs) of synovial fluid in the body. They are lined with a synovial membrane that secretes a lubricating synovial fluid. There are more than 150 bursae in the human body. The bursae rest at the points where internal functionaries, such as muscles and tendons, slide across bone. Healthy bursae create a smooth, almost frictionless functional gliding surface making normal movement painless. When bursitis occurs, however, movement relying on the inflamed bursa becomes difficult and painful. Moreover, movement of tendons and muscles over the inflamed bursa aggravates its inflammation, perpetuating the problem.

Before Verona, I was living at Oakwood. I lived at Verona in 1999 and possibility the first month or two of 2000, although I m not sure about 2000. I know that I lived at Verona the summer of 2000 and moved out in November 2000 after less than a full year. When I was at Oakwood, for some reason, I was talking with a woman online about building furniture. I also remember defending Martha Stewart for some reason I didn t understand. But I also wonder about this reference to a British phrase, in the sense that in my mind, Thomas Ray wasn t home.

THEY are mind-controlling others to create the content AND THEY DON'T KNOW THEY'RE BEING MIND-CONTROLLED! That's what I think is happening here.

So, the thing is: those episodes of that ancient tv-series are rebroadcast at the same exact time each and every morning

That's a predictable fact

Another fact is I do not follow those episodes

Have before, so rarely, it practically never happens

So why did *I* chose of my own volition to so uncharacteristically view that very relevant rebroadcast episode?

The Letter

It was a mild October night in Union. Susan had been driving around for the last hour, trying to calm herself. She drove along Highway 49 and followed the signs to John D. Long Lake. Before driving to the lake on this evening, she had never before been there. Susan preferred to take her sons to the pond at Foster Park, which was closer to her home. At Foster Park, Susan and her sons would feed breadcrumbs to the ducks.

Once she arrived at the shore of John D. Long Lake, Susan drove across a portion of the seventy-five-foot boat ramp and parked in the middle of the ramp. The ramp was unpaved and consisted of gravel and stones. Susan sat quietly behind the wheel of her 1990 burgundy Mazda Protege, listening to the sounds of her two young sons sleeping. Michael, her oldest son had celebrated his third birthday two weeks earlier and Alex was fourteen months old. Susan was twenty-three, with long, sandy blond hair that she tied in a ponytail. She wore wire-rimmed glasses and was in the best physical shape she had been in since before becoming pregnant with Michael.

Susan shifted the Mazda into neutral and felt the car slowly begin to roll down the remaining length of the boat ramp. The car only traveled a few yards before Susan stepped on the brake. With a shift tug, Susan pulled the emergency hand brake, stopping the car from further rolling forward. She opened her door and stepped out of the car. Susan stood outside of her car, on the boat ramp, on the banks of John D. Long Lake and thought about suicide. Susan looked around and saw only black. The lake was not illuminated and she stood alone thinking about her life. The darkness and loneliness of the deserted lake mirrored how Susan felt.

Susan wanted relief from her loneliness and the problems in her life. Susan and her husband, David, were in the middle of a divorce and her boyfriend, Tom Findlay, had just rejected her the week before. She wanted to commit suicide, but she did not want her sons to suffer. Susan believed if she killed her sons first and then committed suicide, that her sons would suffer less, rather than if she committed suicide and left them on their own. Yet, something was stopping her from surrendering to her depression and loneliness. She did not want to commit suicide, what she wanted was relief from all the stresses and burdens that overwhelmed her. She felt that her life was filled with loss and rejection, and that the responsibilities of being a single mother were overwhelming.

Susan's next decision will never be forgotten. Attempts to explain it will always fall short and continue to leave the question "why?" open to further speculation.

Susan Smith released the emergency brake and softly closed the driver's side door. Michael and Alex were asleep in the back seat, strapped into their car seats. As the car drifted into John D. Long Lake, the headlights were on. The car entered the water slowly and did not submerge immediately. Instead, it remained on the surface, bobbing peacefully, while slowly filling with water.

Susan watched the car submerge into the lake. She turned away from the sinking car and began to run toward a small house. The story that Susan would tell would capture the nation's sympathy. Susan's story would also raise doubts in some and cause a community to question some of its own citizens, based solely on the race of those citizens.

After the truth was revealed, many would try to imagine the thoughts running through Susan Smith's head the night of October 25, 1994, when she took the lives of her children.

Fred Trump

From Wikipedia

Frederick Christ Trump Sr. (October 11, 1905 – June 25, 1999)

Trump was investigated for profiteering by a U.S. Senate committee in 1954 and again by New York State in 1966. Donald Trump became the president of his father's real-estate business in 1971.

In early 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower and other federal leaders began denouncing real-estate profiteers. That June, The New York Times included Trump on a list of 35 city builders accused of profiteering from government contracts. He and others were investigated by a U.S. Senate banking committee for windfall gains. Trump and his partner William Tomasello were cited as examples of how profits were made by builders using the FHA.

Quotes

Admiral Kimmel: It is my duty to inform you that you have been relieved of your command, pending the findings of a court of inquiry.

Captain Torrey: I don't understand, sir.

Admiral Kimmel: You weren't zig-zagging when you took the two torpedoes.

Captain Torrey: I was stretching my fuel, sir.

Admiral Kimmel: If you didn't have fuel to complete your mission, why didn't you turn back for Pearl?

Captain Torrey: My mission was to intercept and engage an enemy of greatly superior strength, sir. I could only take that one way: that my group was expendable.

Admiral Kimmel: I doubt if a court of inquiry will accept that. Captain, you're about to be caught in a vacuum between a peacetime Navy and a wartime Navy. Six months from now, they'll be making admirals out of captains who exhibit some guts. But right now, they're only reacting to the Pearl Harbor disaster, and punishment is order-of-the-day. Of course, you don't have to abide by what a court of inquiry decides. You can ask for general court-martial, get yourself a couple of crack sea lawyers, and make a fight of it.

Captain Torrey: I wouldn't care to do that, sir.

Admiral Kimmel: Why not?

Captain Torrey: Second-generation Navy, Admiral.

Admiral Kimmel: I see. I don't plan to ask for court-martial either, Captain, and I've lost a fleet. So I expect we'll both just take what they give us, and trust it will be a useful job somewhere.

Cold front, gusty winds due from north

Mike Prager The Spokesman-Review

You have 998 remaining premium articles

An arctic cold front poised just north of the Canadian border is going to drop southward today, bringing gusty northeast winds to the wind-battered Inland Northwest starting this afternoon.

This comes on the heels of a moderate snowstorm early Tuesday that slickened roads and added to the region’s weather woes.

Star Trek: First Contact (1996)

(from internet transcript)

PICARD: Mister Worf, report.

WORF: The Borg control over half the ship. We have tried to restore power to the bridge and the weapons systems but we have been unsuccessful.

PICARD: We have another problem. I've accessed a Borg neural processor and I've discovered what they are trying to do. They're transforming the deflector dish into an interplexing beacon.

HAWK: Interplexing?

PICARD: It's a subspace transmitter. If they activate the beacon they'll be able to establish a link with the Borg living in this century.

CRUSHER: But in the twenty-first century the Borg are still in the Delta Quadrant.

PICARD: They'll send reinforcements. Humanity will be an easy target.

Quotes

Dick Hallorann: Do you know how I knew your name was 'Doc'? You know what I'm talking about, don't you? I can remember when I was a little boy your age... my grandmother and I could hold entire conversations without ever opening our mouths. She called it "shining". And for a long time I thought it was only the two of us who had the shine... just like you who thought you was the only one. But there are other folks who don't know it or don't believe it. How long have you been able to do it?

[Danny does not reply]

Dick Hallorann: Why don't you want to talk about it?

Danny Torrance: I'm not supposed to.

Dr. Zefram COCHRANE: So, what is it you want me to do?

RIKER: Simple. Conduct your warp flight tomorrow morning just as you planned.

COCHRANE: Why tomorrow morning?

RIKER: Because at eleven o'clock an alien ship will begin passing through this solar system.

COCHRANE: Alien? You mean extra-terrestrials. More bad guys?

TROI: Good guys. They're on a survey mission. They have no interest in Earth. ...Too primitive.

Today is 12/01/2025, Post 2





by me, Kerry Burgess, 12/01/2025 7:37 PM

'Blizzard' is a precise term in the science of meteorology, if I understand correctly

"Possibility of snow" was the clear message from the 11 PM tv-news forecast last night. I briefly checked the video they recorded for the 5:00 AM broadcast and it looked the same.

By 7:30 PM, sure sounded and looked like a blizzard outside.

Unsure when it began today

I had not looked outside past my curtains until after catching a glimpse during the 2 PM hour of obvious snowfall.

So it had obviously started by surprise earlier in the day

They might have changed it to a 100% accurate forecast by noon but that's just a guess.

As I understand it, less about scientific skill than about lack of quality and quantity of sensor devices, so I can understand that.

This note extends a previous blog-post by me here on my blog.

Another installment in a case-study by me in the original-work that I started years ago. The results seem to get better each year.

There was a new episode of "IT: Welcome to Derry" from last night I have not yet viewed. Viewing it later. Might cause me to look at this topic again. I often find interesting observations in the content I view and read.

There's a conventional aspect to it of scumbags just trying to profit from my work and with no intent of recognition. I am looking at - all in content from people I have had zero contact with in any form - of that proverbial "con job within a con job"

Grant v Australian Knitting Mills

From Wikipedia

Decided 21 October 1935

Grant v Australian Knitting Mills is a landmark case in consumer and negligence law from 1935, holding that where a manufacturer knows that a consumer may be injured if the manufacturer does not take reasonable care, the manufacturer owes a duty to the consumer to take that reasonable care.

In June 1931 Dr Grant purchased two pairs of woollen underwear and two singlets from John Martin's There was nothing to say the underwear should be washed before wearing and Dr Grant did not do so. He suffered a skin irritation within nine hours of first wearing them. Dr Grant applied calamine lotion, but continued to wear the underwear for the rest of the week. He then wore the second pair for the next week and washed the first pair. This was in an era when changing his underwear only once a week was "the ordinary custom of ordinary people".: at p. 470  The skin irritation got worse and developed into a severe case of dermatitis. Dr Grant blamed the underwear and sued John Martin & Co. for breach of contract, being the statutory warranties that the goods were fit for the purpose and were of merchantable quality. Dr Grant also sued the manufacturer, Australian Knitting Mills, alleging that they had been negligent in failing to take reasonable care in the preparation of the garments.

Astronaut arrested in romantic feud / Police say she had knife, wig as she attacked rival with pepper spray at Florida airport

MIKE TOLSON Staff

Tue 02/06/2007

Lisa Marie Nowak was accustomed to hard training, prolonged deprivation and a strong sense of mission. But this is not exactly what NASA had in mind when they made her an astronaut.

Equipped with a knife, pellet pistol, can of pepper spray, steel mallet and 4 feet of rubber tubing, Nowak arrived at Orlando International Airport early Monday morning, police said, to confront one challenge the space agency had never considered: a romantic rival.

Nowak, 43, remains in Orange County Jail without bail on a variety of charges arising from a confrontation with Colleen Shipman, an Air Force captain whom she allegedly assaulted in the parking garage during what police characterized as an attempted kidnapping.

She is scheduled to make an initial appearance this morning at the Orange County Jail Booking and Releasing Center, which is inside the main jail facility.

Nowak, married and the mother of three, apparently had driven from Houston to meet Shipman, a younger competitor for the affections of another astronaut, Bill Oefelein. So intent was she not to be late that Nowak had donned adult diapers to avoid the customary rest stops, police said she told them.

Nowak told police that she and Oefelein have "more than a working relationship, but less than a romantic relationship," according to an affidavit. After learning that Shipman was involved with Oefelein, she said she wanted to meet the other woman to talk to her. She said she did not plan to hurt her.

Asked how squirting Shipman with pepper spray was going to aid the conversation, Nowak replied, "That was stupid."

Police said Nowak also told them that she wanted to scare Shipman, an engineer attached to Patrick Air Force Base near the Kennedy Space Center. Shipman is a 2002 graduate of Penn State University and has worked at Cape Canaveral since 2005.

Nowak, a mission specialist and Navy captain, has served on one space shuttle mission, the STS-121 return-to-flight test mission aboard Discovery last summer. She joined the astronaut corps in 1996 after a dozen years as a naval flight officer.

Oefelein is a U.S. Navy commander. He served as the pilot aboard the shuttle Discovery during a 12-day mission to the International Space Station in December. The 41-year-old naval aviator was selected by NASA for astronaut training in 1998. The December mission was his first spaceflight.

Describing Monday's assault, Shipman told police that a dark-haired woman wearing a trench coat boarded the same parking shuttle bus that she did about 3 a.m. When Shipman got off, the other woman did, too. Shipman walked to her car and heard footsteps following her.

Shipman hurriedly got into her car and locked the door. The other woman pounded on her window and tried to open the door. She then asked Shipman for help.

"My boyfriend was supposed to pick me up and he is not here," Shipman said she was told. "I've been traveling, and it's late. Can you give me a ride to the parking office?"

Shipman said she declined. Nowak then asked to borrow her cell phone. Shipman told her the battery was dead. When the woman said she could not hear what Shipman was saying, Shipman lowered the window a few inches. At that point, Shipman was pepper-sprayed, she said.

Eyes burning, Shipman managed to drive away and alert nearby police, who arrested Nowak a few minutes later at a parking shuttle bus stop.

Among the items found during a police search of Nowak's vehicle at a La Quinta hotel near the airport were six latex gloves, plastic garbage bags, a letter indicating how much Nowak loved Oefelein, handwritten directions to Shipman's house, an unused CO2 cartridge and $600 cash. Police also found a black wig and a BB gun in an airport trash can.

Am I just hallucinating this?

Last night, on the local tv-news station I follow, there was mention of snowfall, for *maybe* *possibility* Monday *night* into Tuesday

By 2 PM, snowing fairly heavily locally

Has been snowing for millions of years here in Spokane, surprised the weather people get surprised *still* so easily by surprise snowfall.

Checked the video for the morning news broadcast and it was the same from last night



There's a computer-game I have mentioned here before many times.

Today is their scheduled release of an important update to the newest version.

I don't have a copy of it and I am undecided whether I will ever make a purchase of it.

Space Engineers 2 from Keen Software House, available on Steam

Because of those combinations, I had to check for this, again, for what is now our second snowfall so far this mediocre - well below average season - beginning here of the winter season:

The Stand - complete edition, by Stephen King

(from internet transcript)

excerpt, Chapter 43

Part of it was the tremendous, walloping psychological shock of the empty countryside. As long as he had been in Shoyo, he had been partially protected from it. It didn’t matter if Shoyo was empty, at least not too much, because Shoyo was so small in the scheme of things. But when you got moving, it was as if… well, he remembered a Walt Disney movie he had seen as a kid, a nature thing. Filling the screen was this tulip, this one tulip, so beautiful it just made you want to hold your breath. Then the camera pulled back with dizzying suddenness and you saw a whole field filled with tulips. It knocked you flat. It produced total sensory overload and some internal circuit breaker fell with a sizzle, cutting off the input. It was too much. And that was how this trip had been. Shoyo was empty and he could adjust to that. But McNab was empty, too, and Texarkana, and Spencerville; Ardmore had burned right to the ground. He had come north on Highway 81 and had only seen deer. Twice he had seen what were probably signs of living people: a campfire perhaps two days old, and a deer that had been shot and neatly cleaned out. But no people. It was enough to screw you all up, because the enormity of it was steadily creeping up on you. It wasn’t just Shoyo or McNab or Texarkana; it was America, lying here like a huge discarded tin can with a few forgotten peas rolling around in the bottom. And beyond America was the whole world, and thinking of that made Nick feel so dizzy and sick that he had to give up.

He bent over the atlas instead. If they kept rolling, maybe they would be like a snowball going downhill, getting bigger. With any luck they would pick up a few more people between here and Nebraska (or be picked up themselves, if they met a larger group). After Nebraska he supposed they would go somewhere else. It was like a quest with no object in view at the end of it - no Grail, no sword plunged into an anvil.

Jean Hoerni filed a patent application (No. 3,064,167) for the planar process under the name "method of protecting exposed p-n junctions at the surface of silicon transistors by oxide masking technique". The process, which protected the transistor from contamination, made mass production of the transistors feasible, and has been called "after the invention of the junction transistor, the most important invention of microelectronics".

The NASA spaceflight center in Greenbelt, Maryland, was named for Robert H. Goddard.

But you tell me over and over and over again, my friend, how you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction









by me, Kerry Burgess, 11/29/2025 4:55 PM

I look at this from a specific standpoint:

The probability - or galactic improbability - of severe weather engineered for a specific result over a specific location

There has never been a winter season without snowfall in Spokane's historical records

I have not found a source of historical records I want to find for GFS illustrations

This sort of activity might be normal, I just don't know

From my research so far, looks ominous

It's a 336 hour forecast {in parlance of those A.I. Kiddies, the computer-software program can sometimes hallucinate} so it's doubtful to me - and my non-educated-formally-in-meteorology guess - it is based on anything near reality

Because I generated such astronomically baffling report recently, my next observation won't be anything that interesting unless it is about a storm of whoppers proportions.

(from internet transcript, includes relevant comments by me, Kerry Burgess)

RUSH: The shuttle was restored to its original condition by the aliens who sent you here - better than it was before, even.

CAINE: Well, that sounds to me more like the work of God [ Superstition, in any form of religion ] than aliens.

RUSH: Well, if this shuttle has been restored so perfectly, then why weren't all of you?

(Caine frowns.)

RUSH: I mean, Norris wasn't born with astigmatism, was he? Mr. Chan surely had a full head of hair at one time. All of you have enormous gaps in your memory.

CAINE: What's your point?

RUSH: Well, either He's lost His touch, or [ your ridiculous ] God's got nothing to do with this.
