Clarendon is a Military colloquial term for "Clay Hill High Ground" which stands for:

High Ground Surveillance: ISTAR

The military term for High Ground surveillance is ISTAR, which stands for intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition, and reconnaissance.

150 Glenbrook atop Mount Sutro brought another stat to our attention: the highest elevation home in the city. https://www.sfgate.com/realestate/slideshow/This-17-5-million-custom-built-Clarendon-Heights-217314.php

The more than 7,000-square-foot John Maniscalco-designed Clarendon Heights home is San Francisco's highest private residence above sea level, according to its co-listing agents Stacey Caen and Joseph Lucier. "We used an altimeter along with calculations from the base of Mount Sutro tower to determine the qualification of the home as the highest private residence in the city," said Caen. Plus 1,400-sf of decking, 6-berooms, 7-bathrooms. All Masonic signs.

THIS ARTICLE IS NOT 100% accurate.

There are three houses located just 200-meters away at a higher elevation on Clarendon Avenue with superior views of: (HAP) Haight Ashbury Project, NATO Presidio Military Base, Zodiac killing, Presidio Heights, Pacific Height, UC-SF, USF, St Ignatius Parish. Sharon Meadow, Kezar Stadium, National AIDS Memorial, Patty Hearst's safe house at 1235 Masonic Avenue.

I have spent time in one of those three houses. Clarendon means: Military High Ground.

Thank you, Juxta, for the shout out and the songs! Absolutely phenomenal! The meeting was both educational and entertaining; I felt very privileged and humbled to be amongst a fantastic group of truth-seeking, critical thinkers spanning different generations.

Other than walking away with the axiom "Trust no one," I learned that entertainment, despite most of the time being used as pacification and control, can be used as a tool for spotting manipulation and thus training ourselves to be impervious to its propaganda. I also watch these oldies but goodies to learn what it used to be like back in the days...

Juxta is an excellent teacher that uses entertainment as a tutorial. Thank you and keep them coming! 🙏

Also, great songs/albums you mentioned here. David Bowie's "Left Eye" is permanently dilated, making an interesting and coincidental tribute to the Eye of Horus.

I try to separate the propaganda from the entertainment and artistry. I can enjoy the art of storytelling, while being aware of the predictive programming. At least I try.

My cousin’s son passed away some years ago tragically of cancer. She found solace in 3 thirteens defining his life: Born 12/13 Died 6/13 Age 13. She took it to mean God’s plan for his life was complete.
