#2- The dangers of EMI (electromagnetic Interference) RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) in your home and workplace-PART 1:

Questions come up and people ask me all the time about EMI/RFI meters.

You may be wondering what I use and recommend to check for dangerous levels of EMI and dirty electricity around the house and property. Well today I share my recommendations and discuss many things you should know (but don’t) about various waves and fields caused by wi-fi routers, computers, cellphones, TVs, microwaves, cell towers and all smart devices. It’s ironic that these days what you DON’T know can and will hurt you and in the long run can severely damage your health, that is, unless you take some of the positive steps I’ve outlined here in PART 1 of this series…

 

#3- The truth about Venezuela brain drain, direct from the source, the diaspora:

I’m tired of the fake news coming out of the 1st world manipulated media regarding what’s happening in Venezuela. Today you will hear some actual stories from the mouths of Venezuelans who lost their homes, businesses and pretty much everything. You will see that the country is not crashing and burning because of clandestine US alphabet agency interference (though there was plenty of that and it was totally stupid and unnecessary) but the downfall and financial chaos came most exclusively from the purely socialist policies of private property expropriation and price controls. That said, if you still like socialism, Bernie and ACO after hearing this.. then you deserve what will happen to you and yours ...

Realizing 95% of the unthinking masses of sheeple absolutely love Google and its auxiliary apps like Google translate, Chrome, maps and drive, and although people have come addicted to it like a drug, Google in no way exists as a benevolent friend eager help you. It is in fact as malignant and as evil as the US government itself. That’s why today, we'll give 101 very good reasons why you should drop Google like a hot turd and switch to one or more of the excellent alternatives.

#2- Millennials with a “Plan B”:

Yes, some millennials are motivated enough to get out of Dodge and are working on it. No, not all millenials are addicted to social media… and they’re not all living in their mother’s basements. Some of them actually do look up once in a while from their smartphones to see the ominous things coming up for the USA and thus some are working on getting out of Dodge… that is, as long as the "new" Dodge has smartphones, Netflix, Starbucks and hi-speed internet (well..of course it does).

And will they go back with or without their parents?

But remember, Eddie’s way off the gringo tourist trail and this is Latin America, so if something it happens to him it just might happen to you too…so pay attention… 

#3-Latin women and the way they dress:

Many American ladies (Gringas) comment that when Latinas dress up, they really pour it on… often way too sexy and provocative, even scandalous for Gringa sensibilities. Stateside ladies say that what Latinas get away in Latin America that would be called “slutty” in the states. I hear comments of that type all the time. Meanwhile, Latinas say just the opposite- that gringas are jealous and hate the completion… and man is the competition tough!!      

#4- The ubiquitous Latin “Jealousy” gene- PART 3:

In the states, jealousy is considered a maladaptive affliction that needs to be managed. Meanwhile down in Latin America, jealousy is directly equated with love. It’s a conundrum that begs the question, who’s got it right?

How can it be that both Latinas and Latinos can frequently often underguess your age by 10 or even 20 years?
