[Nashville, TN] US guitar manufacturer Gibson is in a panic as State Department and military intel sources have discovered a Chinese plot to utilize its already proven weather balloon technology to deliver Gibson Les Paul copies to US buyers. The low-cost shipping alternative has come under fire recently by critics who claim the tactic is uncompetitive and unfair.
"This affront to international trade norms, not to mention Gibson's protected IP, cannot be allowed to stand," said Gibson media spokesperson Mark Agnesi. "These are not authentic Gibson guitars, and we intend to use every means at our disposal to prevent these guitars from coming into the country. It just isn't fair that we are down wind from China."
In a separate statement given on a shared private flight to Washington D.C. to meet with lawmakers, Gibson Brand President Cesar Gueikian said, "We at Gibson are used to destroying our own guitars with digging equipment on terra firma (that's the ground to you lower simpletons); we aren't equipped to shoot these balloons down ourselves."
Gueikian said he plans on meeting with lawmakers and the president on Monday, right after the president's afternoon nap.
Not sure if this is something I'll ever publish on the channel, so I thought I'd include it here as an exclusive. Enjoy!
In this video, I put on the cloak of a preacher and talk about why the modern state of Israel spoken about in Genesis 12 is NOT the same as the modern state of Israel we see today and why this idea that we should never oppose Israel is a false teaching. I will back my argument up with Christian scripture. This is something I've never attempted to do before - offer up a Biblical teaching. I do not feel qualified at all. In fact, I am probably one of the least qualified preachers on earth. But maybe that's why you should listen anyway. If you have more to add, or if you have a rebuttal, feel free to comment. I'm all ears and willing to learn more.
