&lt;a href="http://walkthetowpath.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/2Anti_Secret_Society_Group.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" width="200" src="http://walkthetowpath.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/2Anti_Secret_Society_Group.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
"Because of our former occupations and the friendships that we still maintain from them, we have access to the same intelligence that the CIA and Mossad see – which includes the eyes of those inhabiting the White House. And because of our wealth, we are able to run with the big boys of the Illuminati and the Bilderbergs, and we despise them. We consider ourselves to be the Anti-Secret Society Group – although we are ourselves quite a mystery!"
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
What or who is this &lt;i&gt;Anti-Secret Society Group&lt;/i&gt;?  How would they gain access to the same intelligence that the CIA and Mossad use?  And although they may despise them, they run with the "big boys" of the Illuminati and the Bilderbergs; who in essence are much the same clan.  Are you serious?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Certainly, the aforementioned Anti-Secret Society Group is fictional.  But, do you think that there really are wealthy elites that are undermining the U.S. and European economies to the point of engineering a collapse?  Don't you wish there was an ASSG, otherwise known as &lt;i&gt;the Group&lt;/i&gt; to work against the machinations of Soros and the Illuminati Banksters?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Yes, you could consider me a crazy conspiracy theorist, but I believe there is a determined effort by members of the world elite to pull the rug out from below the system as we know it, bringing about two acronyms that you may be familiar with: SHTF and TEOTWAWKI.  They are using world leaders that you know and love to help carry out this plan for destruction first and then ultimately world domination.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
But, what they may fail to consider is the system that they believe they will prosper in as a cabal will instead fall victim to a hostile takeover of sorts; this takeover being done by one very powerful and charismatic man... the Son of Perdition that the Bible speaks of.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Today, the lines between fiction and non-fiction may be blurring before our eyes.  Where fiction is concerned, &lt;i&gt;Jacob's Trouble&lt;/i&gt; is the third part of the Wayfarers trilogy.  To get the full story, start from the start with part 1, titled &lt;i&gt;Walking Dreams&lt;/i&gt;.

This narrow piece of chrome-plated tin pinned below my badge reads &lt;b&gt;B. Ducey&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Yeah, I was a fighter pilot who flew missions first in Afghanistan in October of oh-one and then Iraq in 2003.  When my stint in the Air Force was over in November of oh-six, I finished my education in Criminal Justice by going through the Police Academy at Onondaga Community College; otherwise known as "Ock-Tech" or "Harvard on the Hill" by the locals.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I went to work for the Onondaga County Sheriff's Department as a road deputy in 2007.  It's a good job and I do alright. I've got to say that having flown in two wars prepared me for what can happen in the day to day as a cop.  I can tell you that a cop's biggest enemies are not the thugs on the street but the bureaucrats, socialist-liberal politicians and their Illuminati puppet masters, and the man-made disease of Political Correctness.  Those are the things that tie our hands and keep us from doing our jobs safely and efficiently - whereby keeping you safe.   Man, the last thing we want to do is offend anyone or deny some scumbag his rights!  In this day and age, the miscreants have more rights than you and I!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;People have accused me of having a "hero complex" but I can assure you that is a two-ton load of BS.  First off, I love America and want to see maintain her standing as the world's most free and prosperous nation.  That's why I took a break from college and went into the military - so I could serve her.  Also, I love her citizens - especially those who live in Syracuse and Onondaga County.  These folks are my friends and family and I want to serve them and help them to be safe, secure, and prosperous - so I became a Sheriff's deputy.  Makes sense, right?  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'd lay down my life for America and her people, so if that means I have a "hero complex" then so be it!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Read and find out if this guy accused of having a hero complex plays a role in &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Wayfarers-Five-Feet-Cabin-Door/dp/1453777644/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&amp;amp;ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1292185317&amp;amp;sr=1-1"&gt;The Wayfarers - Five Feet From The Cabin Door&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Yes, I am the youngest of this group of wayfarers, but am I the smartest?  Well, I do know a thing or two about a thing or three!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I can get you free Wi-Fi even when it's not free...that is as long as the internet is up and running.  I've got the latest cutting-edge electronic communication devices and if you don't have them you are either old or just plain old fashioned.  Of course, cell towers have to be providing non-compromised signals for these tech toys to work!  What if there was suddenly no internet or cell service?  You'd have a hard time functioning, or should I say &lt;b&gt;you will &lt;/b&gt;have a hard time functioning...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So, here I am walking down some snow-covered path with three of my best pals.  We're heading west because my good friend in the orange knit hat says that is the direction we must go - and he seems to know more about the situation, even though I am the young one with wisdom!  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now, there is some woman walking with us and I'm still trying to figure out where she came from and why we're even here in the first place!  It's cold and not only that, I was supposed to go Christmas shopping this evening!  But, I'm wondering if the stores are even open now because some really freaky stuff is going on and I'm a little scared I must admit.  Yeah, something bad and freaky started going down this afternoon and I'll bet a lot of plans for a lot have people have been changed.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I've got my backpack on and I'm prepared for the worst.  Somehow I can't help but think that it's going to be a long, cold night out here walking to wherever it is we're going.  Man, I'm getting tired just thinking about it - and why won't my calls go through?
