It Looks Like An Eclispe ... Sort Of

Well, it's a start isn't it? What does it matter that the sun still looks black? At least the sky is getting lighter and lighter, which is so much better than a black sky, in the long run.
People are starting to mill about, looking for intelligent stuff to do, I imagine, but I also know that, in reality, they are looking for some kind of hope.
A lot of people have gone from here, who I use to know and love, but the people who are living here now, with the people who decided to stay, migrated here because the place, where they lived got demolished, so whenever we (the local residents) venture out doors, we are very cautious and feel scared, like we are a rat in a cage, so to speak. Until these migrants prove not to be bad people, we will keep our distance from them, for now.
We know that we are being watched by their spy drones, which fly into the area, 5 to 6 times every day. The MPOs decided to use them to help police the populated areas. Some of the other areas, needed more drones, because there are a lot more people to try to keep from getting too far out of hand.
I really never thought that I would be here today, but I think that I am, because I made sure that I stayed on top of everything that was going on, mostly by typing in keywords, on the net, and by visiting the many alternative news sites on the web, for clues as to when the majority of the shit, was going to start hitting the fan and then flying, in all different directions.
I try not to think about my family too much, because I am not allowed to contact anyone from a different state, at this time. The only internet that is available, is the one for people in high places, which I have been lucky enough to contact a few times a month (even though I am not one, who is in high places), so that I can keep, whoever is lucky enough to get on the net now, informed. Especially the other regular people, just like me.
I would like to believe that everything will be as it was a few years ago, even though the economy was heading down a slippery slope back then, only because there were a lot more people on the web, sharing ideas and knowledge, with all the web surfers and forum writers. Now it is very lonely out there in web space, since the people in charge started limiting the web, and shutting down any website, which spoke out against them. Unbeknownst to the web surfers back then, was the fact that the people in charge developed their own web police department, whose only job was to scan the web for possible dissenters, so that when the time came for them to swoop in and shut them down, and take them away on the FEMA train, to a fate worse than you can imagine, it would make their job, so much easier to do.
