A growing number of writers are worried a psy-op is being implemented to scuttle investigation into deadly “vaccines.” IMO, we’ll never find a cure for cancer using the captured science paradigm.
A few of James Holzhauer's radical "Jeopardy strategies"
* James went sideways across the board (not top-to-bottom in one category) and started at the bottom of the board, trying to make as much money as possible as quickly as possible.
* He was always looking for the Daily Doubles and when he hit one he almost always went "all-in" and bet everything he had (knowing he had about a 98 percent chance of correctly answering the question).
He bet as much as he could in Final Jeopardy.
And a few other wrinkles. Basically, he viewed the game as a chance to make money and wanted to make as much as he could while he could. He could also put away his competitors early in the game and must have left them dismayed and thunder-struck.
It's interesting to me that nobody since James has used the same strategies. However, James was invited to participate in a two-day tournament with the show's Top 3 all-time players, including the all-time champ (as far as number of shows won), Ken Jennings, who is now the host of the show.
Jennings surprised me by beating James in this Jeopardy Super Bowl. However, the way he did this was playing exactly like James' played. In other words, he beat James at his own game.
Jennings was smart enough to know that was the only way he could beat James. So the smartest player knows Holzhauer did indeed figure out how to play Jeopardy better than anyone else ever had.
Jennings admitted he was a nervous wreck playing this 'cut throat" brand of Jeopardy and not many people would have the nerves to play the game this way.
James probably also figured out the State of California and Uncle Sam would take at least 50 percent of his Jeopardy winners' winnings. So James didn't really make $2.2 million. He made about $1.1 million. The State of California (where the show is taped) and the IRS - which didn't answer one question correctly - made just as much money as James.
James was fortunate he lives in a state, Nevada, that doesn't have a state income tax or the government would have stolen even more of "his" money.
To still make a lot of money with all these taxes, you need to maximize your winnings.
California takes up to 12 percent of every winner's money. Each game takes only about 23 minutes to play and five games are taped in the same day. James won 32 consecutive shows so he only "worked" in California for about six or seven days - and the state took more than $200k of his winning for that California work.
Really insightful article, Bill. This is a big concern! I felt alarmed when multi-billionaire Larry Ellison announced from the White House, in connection with Trump's AI investment announcement, that AI would help with customized mRNA shots w/in 48 hours of disease diagnosis. Absolutely the WRONG DIRECTION!!
Oh. I get my best story ideas from the Brownstone writers' thread ... or from the Reader Comments ... or from other author's articles (like Debbie's). If you have an idea ... run with it!
My sisters recently diagnosed spinal metastatic breast cancer is stage 4... but they've rebranded that into a "lifetime manageable disease". WTF does that mean. Seems as if they're rebranding everything to keep up the charade. I sent her info on "alternative" treatments with no response. As I can imagine she's overwhelmed by her diagnosis, I will support whatever she decides. This is all getting murkier than I can stomach.
Me too. Thank you. I almost wonder if they're calling every anomaly "cancer" now? And hoping that is the case for her! Some weird vax induced cell growth? It feels as if drowning while breathing with the depth and breadth of information we all consume.
Look at the FenBen can cure cancer Substack. I had no luck with my late sister when she informed me that she had pulmonary hypertension, you may be able to help.
“Lifetime Manageable Disease.” I like that- as long as you live we get paid for “management.”
Yes so they can “manage your di-ease” while extracting large sums of $$$ from you and having one to continue to pay to your worthless health insurance company premiums with “poor coverage”!
Don’t y’all see it’s been one GIANT GRIFT for the past 100 years…all over the place…name one area on your life that hasn’t been affected?
Speaking of climbing out of the box, maybe your sister could benefit from some alternative protocols like fenbendazole and ivermectin successfully used by many, most famously Joe Tippens. These protocols are updated frequently so some reaearch will be required. Prayers for successful treatment! 🙏🏻
Unfortunately, unless RFK, Jr back-pedals on his staunch "Vaccines are toxic" position, his very life is in danger from the evils of the vicious and idiotic cruelites hell-bent on torturing the global populations and punishing those who stand in the way of their bottomless greed. RFK, Jr is a ground-breaking hero for his work, including CHD. May he and those like him be forever infinitely protected, supported, and given everything they need to succeed wildly, quickly, permanently, already!!! Additional wealthy and powerful folks need to intensify the public war on these hideous poison quackcines. I'll never cease speaking up and communicating with state politicians about the real dangers of ALL vaccines for humans and animals (I'm talking to you, backward, conventional, woke vax-worshipping veterinarians!), to keep doing what I can to get them banned from mandatory usage for participation in any aspect of society/life, and better yet, banned outright, worldwide, except for fake humans like Fauci and Gates. Those two cockroaches need to be (re)jabbed every few weeks, for starters.
Kennedy is now in an interesting position. He now has more power to bring about the change he's worked to make possible for two decades ... but he works for a boss who might not agree with everything he really believes. He could be fired or run-off or his confirmation sabatoged if he doesn't tow the line. He's walking on a tight rope and probably trying to see how far he can go. I do think these Confirmation Hearings will tell us everything we need to know about which way the wind is blowing in D.C and the true colors of Trump administration when it comes to mRNA "vaccines."
I like that so many authors are telling Trump and Kennedy "don't go wobbly" or "don't cozy up to these villains."
How do we get this information to Trump about the big pharma cabal and vaccines? Do we keep reaching out to senator johnson, senator Rand Paul and RFK JR? We have to keep the pedal to the metal.
As a kid, messing around with a basketball playing either the game or some free throw focused version, granny style was completely forbidden. Reason? It's easier. Unspoken reason? Probably that we felt we had to emulate the professional players or else we wouldn't be "playing properly". In that game or any game, the game rules are whatever people agree on. There's no natural set of game rules embedded in material reality (no one needs to make a rule to honor gravity). No one told us that there are or aren't rules about how to throw, but we did tell each other that the rules don't allow granny throws. We observed a consensus and rationalized from there.
It's very important that there are enough contrarians to be observed being contrary. In my view, order to make them more visible, especially but not solely to the next generations, we should mention contrarians and discuss what they are doing, whenever possible. We should simply work to socialize the idea that the way it's been done isn't the way we have to keep doing it.
At the same time, valuing disruption just because it's disruptive is mindless and carries a lot of risk. There's value in friction, which slows down change enough for people to see what's happening and try to make some predictions about whether the direction is a good one or not. Discussion that highlights contrarianism shouldn't just applaud people for being "mavericks". There'd be nothing wrong, for example, with a rule that said only overhand throws are allowed. Competition of the skilled can take place in lower scoring games just as well as in higher scoring games. A limitation of the subset of skills that can be used in the competition keeps the field lean and limited to the best of the best (an accurate distance throw with one hand is obviously more difficult than a throw that uses two hands and the full leverage of the back and legs). There can be value in not having a wide open field. The returns from allowing a large set of less valuable members into the game tend to trail off, and knowing what returns one is looking for matters, when deciding whether loosening standards has been useful or not.
It has only been 4 days. We need to give Trump time to do his work. Someone said and I agree that Trump's people need time to secure and dig into CIA, FBI and NIH files. The Grant Pipeline at NIH was halted today. I presume this is to figure out which projects are gain of function or otherwise against MAHA policy so they can be ended while other beneficial research will continue to be funded. It has only been 4 days. Trump has come through on so many fronts that I am willing to give him time. As I warn others, never let you guard down (for me it is my BS meter). Keep your eyes open and ears sharp for deep state activities and we love to hear about them to warn us.
Bill.. contractions in the Healthcare space...Semmelweiss, who first proposed physicians wash their hands between patients. He was ignored and ridiculed.
John Snow... grief to get London to install a set system to do the cholera epidemics... they laughed at him until after his death, then installed the sewer system and have never had another cholera epidemic.
Dr. Makinen.... in the 60's he published studies showing that using a 5 carbon dust molecule you could prevent nearly 100% of tooth decay... dentists today still don't talk about it because they don't want to take away from people using fluoride... which is toxic and only reduces tooth decay by at best 25%, but the Cochrane group puts it closer to 4%.
Dr. ALONZO JONES, my dad... who first added these rare sugars to nasal sprays. The sugars block bacterial like strep, staph, etc and viruses like sarscov2, rsv, h5n1 from adhering to human airway tissue. Rather than embracing hygiene solutions in our age of enlightenment... the government is censoring and suing companies like Xlear, that share published data.
Contrarians in the health space have a long history of being silenced.
Great article. I love the sports examples. They're persuasive because results in sporting competition are objectively measurable. I understand the reluctance of Wilt, Shaq and others to avoid what we called the "bucket shot" back in my day. Or so I recall anyway. That was before the hoop itself was referred to as the "bucket". Anyway, if I were them I'd do the same. If you're already wildly successful, why do something to tarnish your public and self image for an improvement you can do without? Usually a contrarian approach has a macho connotation - damn the torpedoes, I'm doing it my way! Underhanded free throws are the opposite, they really do seem sissified.
I always appreciate you articles when you delve into sport memories and anecdotes and well - facts!
Way to go Bill - plus - nice to mention the Buffalo Bills kicker - I'm pretty sure I remember Pete Gogolak when I was a kid in Buffalo - but now I just have to check how many years he held onto the position - I mean I was born the year after he was drafted.....
Gogolak was also a prime factor in the "war between the leagues" and the subsequent merger of the National Football League with the American Football League. Bills' owner Ralph Wilson paid Gogolak $10,000 in 1964 and offered him $13,500 for 1965, exceptional pay, in those days, for a kicker. Choosing instead to take a reduction in pay to $9,900,[10] Gogolak was able to "play out his option", thereby forcing the Bills to match any other team's subsequent offer. A wealthy suitor was at hand: the NFL's New York Giants, playing in the NFL's largest market, found itself saddled with struggling rookie kicker Bob Timberlake, who made just one field goal in fifteen attempts (.067) in 1965. Fullback Chuck Mercein also had two attempts without success and the Giants finished at 7–7, four games behind the Cleveland Browns. The Giants' mediocrity could not be attributed to a lack of field goal proficiency; the average margin in their seven losses was 21 points, and the closest was 13 points (to the Browns).
Wellington Mara of the Giants ignored the owners' "gentleman's agreement" against signing another league's players,[1][10] an arrangement that had previously depressed player wages and prevented inter-league competition over otherwise valued athletes. The only player to jump leagues had been end Willard Dewveall, who left the Chicago Bears after the 1960 season for the AFL's Houston Oilers.[11] Although the leagues competed for new collegiate talent over the next five years, they had adhered to an unwritten understanding not to sign each other's veteran players.
The desperate Giants, then playing in Yankee Stadium, whose late autumn winds sometimes rivaled those faced by Gogolak in Buffalo, signed the Bills star and Gogolak went on to become the Giants' all-time leading scorer. As NFL owners had feared, the May signing led to a marked increase in similar "poachings" by new AFL Commissioner Al Davis, bringing other NFL stars to the newer league. Ultimately, this increasingly expensive competition for key players was a significant contributory factor to the two leagues' owners reaching accord in the AFL–NFL merger on June 8, 1966. Part of the agreement was no inter-league trades, so the movement of notable NFL players (Roman Gabriel, John Brodie, and Mike Ditka) to the AFL was disallowed.
The Giants reactivated Len Grant's #3 in 1966, at Gogolak's request. [Len Grant was the Giants' tackle and captain, who died from a lightning strike in 1938 while playing golf, shortly before training camp, and his #3 was retired that same year.]
Gogolak made 16 of 28 attempts (.571) for the Giants in 1966, but they finished at 1–12–1, the worst record in franchise history (and in pro football in 1966). Gogolak was inducted into the U.S. Army in January 1967; he had failed a physical the previous summer due to a childhood spinal injury, but standards had since been relaxed.[12] He appeared in only nine games in 1967 and retired after the 1974 season, his ninth with the Giants.[1]
After football
After his playing career, Gogolak was a longtime sales executive with the printing firm RR Donnelley in New York City, and resides in Darien, Connecticut.[13]

ah....now I know better why you mentioned ole side-kick Pete - and I know I must of just remembered - a figment of his imagination.
~
BK
ps - if freaking Substack would let me click the "Also share to Notes" button - that is what I've been trying to do most unsuccessfully the last few days - I would of....but I got my ways - I'll get the Note sent if need be....
I saw that Pete had a 10-year NFL career. He made history or changed it. I also read that the last straight-on field goal in the NFL happened in 1987. That kick was made by an emergency kicker after the real kicker got hurt in a game.
There are five stages in the acceptance of a new idea. Rather, people respond to new ideas in one of five ways. Organizations are made up of people and so follow this pattern.
1. Pioneer - does not care what people think. Does not mind if it does not work or is awkward or expensive. It is just interesting or effective to them. Rick Barry is an obvious example.
2. Early adopters. They want to be known as the first. (The Fosbury Flop immortalized him.)
3. People who follow the early adopters (all competitive high jumpers)
4. Then come people who will use it and are most interested in the lowest cost.
5. Laggards who eventually get dragged into it. (Troglodyte NFL owners)
Be nice, Jeff, not all NFL owners are bad folk. Life is complicated and humbling, and no one is immune to suffering. Your post is otherwise accurate and I am right there with you. Be well.
Mel Gibson thinks that there is a cure for Cancer and not knowing any better, I'm inclined to agree with him - I've included the whole article (why pass up on the potential of a lost opportunity), but the top. first paragraph about Cancer is the one I want to refer you to : I am in contact with people who have been vaccinated too . While I think about it, Mel Gibson said that Ivermectin works really well at killing off the Cancer in those with Cancer, even those who are at deaths door can make a full recovery - might need a script to get it from a vet - Read it here: https://www.newsweek.com/mel-gibson-joe-rogan-ivermectin-fenbendazole-cancer-podcast-2013180 - I appear to be restricted in how many posts I can make -"Too many login emails" - I'm new to substack and have no idea how to fix it?
There is so much online stuff about viruses and JN-1 that it all gets very confusing, added to which everything directs you towards vaccines as the only way out of the solution, vaccines which in turn injure and kill - if the medical establishment don't push vaccines, they are deregistered and not allowed to practice medicine - up to 97% of populations here, so I gather - that includes the Carers who attend my home 4 times a week who are all vaccinated too and I regularly get shedded on - I use and do this to keep me safe and have done for many years, interestingly someone else also published it on their substack which no longer appears to be "here":
We need stability, from which we can order our lives accordingly. My understanding of JN-1 is that it is natural to nature and no particular threat in itself and bird flu which has been around for millions of years, does not jump to Humans yet, just like viruses which have been around for millions of years too - they did not just happen - but because the vaccine makers have got everyone motivated to vaccinate from past forced Covid virus scares, there is a mad panic to get vaccinated for any and every new virus concocted, to make you even more gullible and maleable and vulnerable, it seems to me.
The best advice I saw on substack - the natural salt water cure, when you think you are coming down with something: 3 minutes from preparation to job done: Mix one heaped teaspoon of table (or Iodine) salt in a mug of warm clean water, cup a hand and sniff or snort the entire mugful up your nose, in small lots, spitting out anything which comes down into your mouth. If burning sensation, then you have a virus, so continue morning noon and night, or more often if you want, until the burning sensation goes away (2-3 minutes) then blow out your nose with toilet paper and flush away, washing your hands afterwards, until when you do this simple cure, you don't have any burning sensation at all, when you flush - job done. Also swallow a couple of mouthfuls of salt water and if you have burning in your lungs, salt killing virus and pneumonia, there too.It washes behind the eyes, the brain bulb, brain stem (Long Covid), the tubes to the inner ears and the top of the throat which is at a point roughly level with half way up your ears and not where your mouth is and it goes down the back of your throat, when infected there too.
The author has been doing this simple cure for over 31 years and me longer than that.
Simply put, if the inside of your nose is dry and crusty, you are OK, if your nose is runny, you really need to do a salt water sniffle as quickly as possible AND THERE IS STILL CLEAN SEA WATER, TO USE INSTEAD.
Nobody has been injured or killed by the author's above salt water cure
It is what I do and continue to do now and always.
Say No to vaccines and do this instead, a nice, safe, natural cure, which the old people in India, where the Elephants are, have been doing for hundreds of years - and Alberta University in tests, gave it 100% effective. Better "something" than nothing, for your next virus.
I got my Fenben online, legally. I hear so many stories about stage-4 cures—complete NED remissions—attributed to Fenben that I feel sheepish (not yet foolhardy, though) that I bothered with radiation for my (3,4) prostate tumor. But that was in 2023.
I think we must have been in a transition phase during my high school track as there were still high jumpers doing the forward crawl. I loved the Fosbury flop.

Not smart enough to move from California BEFORE he played, oh well.
California takes up to 12 percent of every winner's money. Each game takes only about 23 minutes to play and five games are taped in the same day. James won 32 consecutive shows so he only "worked" in California for about six or seven days - and the state took more than $200k of his winning for that California work.
Still a good earn.
Really insightful article, Bill. This is a big concern!

I can't wait to read your article. This is getting a lot of buzz from independent thinkers or the naturally skeptical.
Oh, ha ha! I didn’t actually mention an article, but I think I feel one forming in my mind ;-D.
Oh. I get my best story ideas from the Brownstone writers' thread ... or from the Reader Comments ... or from other author's articles (like Debbie's). If you have an idea ... run with it!
Money games are being perpetuated and the techno boys and the deranged medicine men are hugging each other. There is a all court press to stop RFK jr.
Yes! That was one scary speech! 😬
My sisters recently diagnosed spinal metastatic breast cancer is stage 4... but they've rebranded that into a "lifetime manageable disease". WTF does that mean. Seems as if they're rebranding everything to keep up the charade. I sent her info on "alternative" treatments with no response. As I can imagine she's overwhelmed by her diagnosis, I will support whatever she decides. This is all getting murkier than I can stomach.
I’m so sorry to hear this.
Me too. Thank you. I almost wonder if they're calling every anomaly "cancer" now? And hoping that is the case for her! Some weird vax induced cell growth? It feels as if drowning while breathing with the depth and breadth of information we all consume.
Ugly diagnosis, I am sorry.
Look at the FenBen can cure cancer Substack. I had no luck with my late sister when she informed me that she had pulmonary hypertension, you may be able to help.
“Lifetime Manageable Disease.” I like that- as long as you live we get paid for “management.”
Yes so they can “manage your di-ease” while extracting large sums of $$$ from you and having one to continue to pay to your worthless health insurance company premiums with “poor coverage”!
Don’t y’all see it’s been one GIANT GRIFT for the past 100 years…all over the place…name one area on your life that hasn’t been affected?
I tried... sent her loads of information.
Speaking of climbing out of the box, maybe your sister could benefit from some alternative protocols like fenbendazole and ivermectin successfully used by many, most famously Joe Tippens. These protocols are updated frequently so some reaearch will be required. Prayers for successful treatment! 🙏🏻

How do we get this information to Trump about the big pharma cabal and vaccines? Do we keep reaching out to senator johnson, senator Rand Paul and RFK JR? We have to keep the pedal to the metal.
THEY KNOW.
Do you think he doesn't know??
One more thing: Jay Bhattacharya is nominated for NIH director, not CDC Director.
Rep. Dave Weldon (R-FL) is Trump's pick for CDC Director. Dr. Marty Makary is his pick for FDA Director.
Eeeks. I'll fix that. Thanks for the correction, Lori.
You're welcome. 😉😊😋😉

Importance in AFL–NFL merger

The Giants' mediocrity could not be attributed to a lack of field goal proficiency; the average margin in their seven losses was 21 points, and the closest was 13 points (to the Browns).
Wellington Mara of the Giants ignored the owners' "gentleman's agreement" against signing another league's players,[1][10] an arrangement that had previously depressed player wages and prevented inter-league competition over otherwise valued athletes. The only player to jump leagues had been end Willard Dewveall, who left the Chicago Bears after the 1960 season for the AFL's Houston Oilers.[11] Although the leagues competed for new collegiate talent over the next five years, they had adhered to an unwritten understanding not to sign each other's veteran players.
The desperate Giants, then playing in Yankee Stadium, whose late autumn winds sometimes rivaled those faced by Gogolak in Buffalo, signed the Bills star and Gogolak went on to become the Giants' all-time leading scorer. As NFL owners had feared, the May signing led to a marked increase in similar "poachings" by new AFL Commissioner Al Davis, bringing other NFL stars to the newer league. Ultimately, this increasingly expensive competition for key players was a significant contributory factor to the two leagues' owners reaching accord in the AFL–NFL merger on June 8, 1966. Part of the agreement was no inter-league trades, so the movement of notable NFL players (Roman Gabriel, John Brodie, and Mike Ditka) to the AFL was disallowed.
The Giants reactivated Len Grant's #3 in 1966, at Gogolak's request. [Len Grant was the Giants' tackle and captain, who died from a lightning strike in 1938 while playing golf, shortly before training camp, and his #3 was retired that same year.]
Gogolak made 16 of 28 attempts (.571) for the Giants in 1966, but they finished at 1–12–1, the worst record in franchise history (and in pro football in 1966). Gogolak was inducted into the U.S. Army in January 1967; he had failed a physical the previous summer due to a childhood spinal injury, but standards had since been relaxed.[12] He appeared in only nine games in 1967 and retired after the 1974 season, his ninth with the Giants.[1]
After football
After his playing career, Gogolak was a longtime sales executive with the printing firm RR Donnelley in New York City, and resides in Darien, Connecticut.[13]

ah....now I know better why you mentioned ole side-kick Pete - and I know I must of just remembered - a figment of his imagination.

ps - if freaking Substack would let me click the "Also share to Notes" button - that is what I've been trying to do most unsuccessfully the last few days - I would of....but I got my ways - I'll get the Note sent if need be....
Go Bills!
ha, ha.
I saw that Pete had a 10-year NFL career. He made history or changed it. I also read that the last straight-on field goal in the NFL happened in 1987. That kick was made by an emergency kicker after the real kicker got hurt in a game.
Well - dag-gong bill - I think I remember that kick!
Go Bills!
Hey Bill Above - you be the same bill and the bill posting this article?
If not - guess what - you be exposed....
don't be messing billy bill bill - troy citizen - or are you the one and same - I doubt it and I expose you...

There are five stages in the acceptance of a new idea. Rather, people respond to new ideas in one of five ways. Organizations are made up of people and so follow this pattern.
1. Pioneer - does not care what people think. Does not mind if it does not work or is awkward or expensive. It is just interesting or effective to them. Rick Barry is an obvious example.
2. Early adopters. They want to be known as the first. (The Fosbury Flop immortalized him.)
3. People who follow the early adopters (all competitive high jumpers)
4. Then come people who will use it and are most interested in the lowest cost.
5. Laggards who eventually get dragged into it. (Troglodyte NFL owners)
Be nice, Jeff, not all NFL owners are bad folk. Life is complicated and humbling, and no one is immune to suffering. Your post is otherwise accurate and I am right there with you. Be well.
I was only referring to the troglodyte team owners. Mostly because it was fun to spell troglodyte.
I dod not include an example of the 4th type. That would be the Cubs owners and free agency.
Now you made laugh!
Mel Gibson thinks that there is a cure for Cancer and not knowing any better, I'm inclined to agree with him - I've included the whole article (why pass up on the potential of a lost opportunity), but the top. first paragraph about Cancer is the one I want to refer you to : I am in contact with people who have been vaccinated too . While I think about it, Mel Gibson said that Ivermectin works really well at killing off the Cancer in those with Cancer, even those who are at deaths door can make a full recovery - might need a script to get it from a vet - Read it here: https://www.newsweek.com/mel-gibson-joe-rogan-ivermectin-fenbendazole-cancer-podcast-2013180 - I appear to be restricted in how many posts I can make -"Too many login emails" - I'm new to substack and have no idea how to fix it?
There is so much online stuff about viruses and JN-1 that it all gets very confusing, added to which everything directs you towards vaccines as the only way out of the solution, vaccines which in turn injure and kill - if the medical establishment don't push vaccines, they are deregistered and not allowed to practice medicine - up to 97% of populations here, so I gather - that includes the Carers who attend my home 4 times a week who are all vaccinated too and I regularly get shedded on - I use and do this to keep me safe and have done for many years, interestingly someone else also published it on their substack which no longer appears to be "here":
We need stability, from which we can order our lives accordingly. My understanding of JN-1 is that it is natural to nature and no particular threat in itself and bird flu which has been around for millions of years, does not jump to Humans yet, just like viruses which have been around for millions of years too - they did not just happen - but because the vaccine makers have got everyone motivated to vaccinate from past forced Covid virus scares, there is a mad panic to get vaccinated for any and every new virus concocted, to make you even more gullible and maleable and vulnerable, it seems to me.
The best advice I saw on substack - the natural salt water cure, when you think you are coming down with something: 3 minutes from preparation to job done: Mix one heaped teaspoon of table (or Iodine) salt in a mug of warm clean water, cup a hand and sniff or snort the entire mugful up your nose, in small lots, spitting out anything which comes down into your mouth. If burning sensation, then you have a virus, so continue morning noon and night, or more often if you want, until the burning sensation goes away (2-3 minutes) then blow out your nose with toilet paper and flush away, washing your hands afterwards, until when you do this simple cure, you don't have any burning sensation at all, when you flush - job done. Also swallow a couple of mouthfuls of salt water and if you have burning in your lungs, salt killing virus and pneumonia, there too.It washes behind the eyes, the brain bulb, brain stem (Long Covid), the tubes to the inner ears and the top of the throat which is at a point roughly level with half way up your ears and not where your mouth is and it goes down the back of your throat, when infected there too.
The author has been doing this simple cure for over 31 years and me longer than that.
Simply put, if the inside of your nose is dry and crusty, you are OK, if your nose is runny, you really need to do a salt water sniffle as quickly as possible AND THERE IS STILL CLEAN SEA WATER, TO USE INSTEAD.
Nobody has been injured or killed by the author's above salt water cure
It is what I do and continue to do now and always.
Say No to vaccines and do this instead, a nice, safe, natural cure, which the old people in India, where the Elephants are, have been doing for hundreds of years - and Alberta University in tests, gave it 100% effective. Better "something" than nothing, for your next virus.
In regards to Ivermectin and Fenbendazole, read substacks: 2ndsmartestguyintheworld and fenben.
I got my Fenben online, legally. I hear so many stories about stage-4 cures—complete NED remissions—attributed to Fenben that I feel sheepish (not yet foolhardy, though) that I bothered with radiation for my (3,4) prostate tumor. But that was in 2023.

Great article Bill. Fascinating history.
I think we must have been in a transition phase during my high school track as there were still high jumpers doing the forward crawl. I loved the Fosbury flop.
A good Oregon State boy!
