Download or read book Same as God Spoke written by Joseph Wactor and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-01-27 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As revenge, two Wall Street executives, together with family and friends, are lured to a remote but upscale resort under the false pretense of evaluating its investment potential. After just one fantastic day basking in the lap of luxury, they are summarily abducted and injected with a synthetic drug infamously known as the Godspoke. The Godspoke concoction overrides and neutralizes all human willpower. Its victims are rendered completely and absolutely submissive. The entire group of would-be investors, with the exception of one reluctant hero, is forcibly co-opted and used as forced laborers, sex slaves, and worse, as murderers. Their captors are a sophisticated band of clandestine characters emanating from all walks of life, including our very own government. This network of bad apples is led by a disbarred and disgraced physicist known only as the Good Doctor. This criminal cohort has devised an elaborate scheme to make billions by dominating the North American illicit drug trade. The Good Doctor’s whole plan is predicated on supplying cheaper, more potent, and more plentiful narcotics. All the drugs are grown in a co-opted government-owned biosphere and escorted to market by a network of corrupt law enforcement officers. Above all, the man-made perfect weather annually affords them 365 days of get-rich-quick production, harvested by a spellbound, and more importantly, free workforce. The means, the motive, and the obsequious peons all spell profits, or do they?

Download or read book The Broken Spoke written by Donna Marie Miller and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2017-04-21 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James and Annetta White opened the Broken Spoke in 1964, then a mile south of the Austin city limits, under a massive live oak, and beside what would eventually become South Lamar Boulevard. White built the place himself, beginning construction on the day he received his honorable discharge from the US Army. And for more than fifty years, the Broken Spoke has served up, in the words of White’s well-worn opening speech, “. . . cold beer, good whiskey, the best chicken fried steak in town . . . and good country music.” White paid thirty-two dollars to his first opening act, D. G. Burrow and the Western Melodies, back in 1964. Since then, the stage at the Spoke has hosted the likes of Bob Wills, Dolly Parton, Ernest Tubb, Ray Price, Marcia Ball, Pauline Reese, Roy Acuff, Kris Kristofferson, George Strait, Willie Nelson, Jerry Jeff Walker, Asleep at the Wheel, and the late, great Kitty Wells. But it hasn’t always been easy; through the years, the Whites and the Spoke have withstood their share of hardship—a breast cancer diagnosis, heart trouble, the building’s leaky roof, and a tour bus driven through its back wall. Today the original rustic, barn-style building, surrounded by sleek, high-rise apartment buildings, still sits on South Lamar, a tribute and remembrance to an Austin that has almost vanished. Housing fifty years of country music memorabilia and about a thousand lifetimes of memories at the Broken Spoke, the Whites still honor a promise made to Ernest Tubb years ago: they’re “keepin’ it country.”
