‘Wait! Out go the lights!’

Here’s something to ponder: Las Vegas had the San Francisco 49ers plus-4 for the Super Bowl bettors. Most everybody knows that the house wins 99 percent of the time or they would not be in business. The game was 21-6 at halftime. The Baltimore Ravens came out and scored immediately to make it 28-6 and had momentum going their way. It looked like a sure blowout for the Ravens.

Wait! Out go the lights!

They think the halftime show caused it or maybe the 40-year-old-plus equipment. As you know the 49ers made a game of it after that “unfortunate” incident.

I say Vegas had a hand in it. Vegas still lost big money and there are probably more bodies in the desert because of it. This is just one man’s opinion.

    StR, any truth to that? Or was it just our feeble national grid reminding us we'd better get to work on our infrastructure?

    Like many planned "shows" the Illuminati puts on, yes this could have served multiple purposes....High Level Gambling....Subliminal Indoctrination....An actual invocation of further demonic portholes....Lights out for less than 34 minutes so equals 33 minutes a number significant to the Illuminati......Very Funny evil people - a prominent display of MK-Ultraed Pop Stars.....Provocation of Lusts. I found the (was it Mercedes) commercial about selling your soul very disturbing.

    But yes we do also need to work on our power infrastructure. The question is how do we take control of the process and bypass the controlling Banking entities that actually own the power resources of this country?

    I will answer my own question...1. We need politicans that are not owned/controlled (both Dem and Repub)by the New World Order Bankers....2. Get rid of the Federal Reserve and issue our own money to fund these infrastructure projects. Do you agree Michael?
