almost passe now, except for a few instances ncessary with snail mail: find one or two great charities with which you agree. Donate as often as you wish and can. They will nicely send you mailers almost weekly asking for more money, including address labels. The labels don't sop there. Your name now goes on the "this person donates" list. You will now get requests from all types of organizations, some or many of which you may not directly agree. Most charities are honest, but a few need -- refocussing. To others, I outright refuse to donate.
PETA gets a bad rap from a few lunatics, but honestly, their attempts to make a better existence for cows marginally smarter than worms (only responding to stimuli) is perhaps -- too large an expenditure of meager funding. If persons were really interseted in the ethical treatment of all animals, they wouldn't squash or kill bugs and would open their doors to roaches. If they were to stop their passion at insects and micro-organisms, then why give a care about the slaughter of rare species. I'll end there.
It is important to research a group to find where funding goes. Many larger organizations print it in the packets, but .. who's to say that the data is recent and valid? Quickly checking takes less than an hour, which is better than stupidly giving money to say, two scammers claiming donations to cancer research. Their scheme, finally exposed bilked hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars to these guys. They did, indeed donate proceeds to charity, but at at 10 or so percent. The rest they kept.
I have more than I will ever use, as I tend to stay away from snail mail, but do send in checks to places. Once my finances are improved -- goodbye snail mail forever.

more Indiana July clouds
It took several minutes to stop fogging. Anyway, small moon in the clouds, well worth it. Also, the cicada were out. After ten mintues, my ears were ringing. They are loud. Even inside the house you can hear them, though much quieter.
I quickly used the auto functions on the camera to set the ISO, which made the pictures turn out ISO 800 grainy, perhaps worse. The end result was that they are nice at a distance, but close -- poor. Tonight, as humid as it is, may not be the best night for star photography.
no good deed goes unpunished
Associated Press
TELFS, Austria - A 14-year-old Austrian teenager saved a Russian boy from drowning - only to wind up in the hospital himself a few hours later after an insect attack.
Police in the alpine town of Telfs just outside Innsbruck said the Austrian pulled the unconscious 6-year-old from the bottom of a swimming pool Friday. A lifeguard performed first aid, and the young Russian - on vacation with his family - was hospitalized for treatment of water in the lungs.
Within a few hours, police said, the teenage lifesaver was stung by insects and developed an allergic reaction - prompting medics to rush him to the same hospital.
His condition was improving, officials said Saturday. They did not release the two youths' names.
Shocking denial
Lebanese Defense Minister Elias Murr disputed allegations that Hezbollah was firing missiles from Qana. Oh, no ... can't be. Hezbollah, the same group who kidknaps people ... certainly they would be honest!
I agree that civilians are sadly being slaughtered, but I also know that no amount of placating the 'against Zionists' groups would never happen. I would like to point out that Arafat was offered the West Bank -- didn't take it. That has to do with mainly his embezzling the billions of dollars from "his people", but were Israel to stop defending itself pro-actively against well funds groups, it would fall. Israel has the US. All the other nations are set to destroy Israel. Sadly, it has to take bold steps to defend itself. Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran all fund groups to take out Israel. If you could get that to stop happening, well ... Isarael wouldn't have to be on the defensive, now would it?
I see groups continuing to gain support because they attack, flee and are protected by sympathizers. Hey -- World! Israel won't go without a fight. It has nuclear weapons and presently the support of the US. Stop trying to get rid of Israel. Stop it! That -- there is the problem.
gavel down, time to grovel
I think now, I remember, that it was when we were all drinking that some one brought up that --- thing! I had hope that it'd go away, now like an albatross around his neck or Marley's chains -- forever his.
Then ... I'm not sure if it came with the instant pang of remorse.
[bang bang bang] Order in the court!
T J is not on trial here, for he has plead guilty to the crime of inciting a riot with a foul stament. What is in debate is the manner in which it was told. I would like sworn affidavidts by the end of the week from all parties. Court is adjourned.
Reminded me of terrible statement
T J, while well intoxicated, told us a statement. I can't call it a joke, but it started out, "What's the best thing about sex with ..." If the audience were, um ... sadistic, psychotic, and pediphelic it might be construed as something you might want to hear, though unfunny. I leave this here as a reminder that if you're drunk off your butt and you have a wingman with you, his job also entails you not telling horrible statements like this. Worse still, T J laughed, then -- a blip of conscience coupled it with remorse.
To this day, I had hoped sometime that it would be erased from my mind, but it hasn't. I try then to fill all the area around it with flowers and pretty and kind things to hide this wicked one-time misstatement he made. He heard it from someone and in a drunken state, chosen to say it in the same state as he likely heard it.
Heaven's to murgitroid! What did I type?
Oh well, that's how I felt. Anyway, after the emergency venting, I still don't like Monster.com. MR suggested finding a company and finding where I fit in, a long shot -- but the sending out hundreds of resume' isn't getting me a job either. I think I'll return to my less caustic posting, now that the storm is over. Good luck to me!
More valid bitching (this time, with profanity)
The fucking gloves are off man! I am pissed! First, we have the above on Monster dot shit! Naval fucking reserve?! Why the hell is that shit there?! Monster &*^$@# -- assholes! If I wanted to join the military -- they'd take my ass in a heartbeat for they aren't getting boku volunteers now. Now on to my second bitching ...
It's great when you are required to apply through a dead link. Nice going fucking idiots!I have created now well over 12 accounts with companies.
I've got an idea... "screw off Monster!" There's a Monster piece of shit, and I'm very tired of it. When I log on every day, it makes want to blow them away. I also have to enter No Thanks to ads while clicking page to page on Monster. They way overcharge if a company posts there for money, advertisers post everywhere and applicants have to go through another 7-10 pages of more applicantion pages on a company's website.
I think this is why unemployment might rise. Few have the patience to deal with the bullshit of having to enter the same friggin' stuff, over and over again. If I wanted to fill out 3-sheet applications for local under-paying jobs, I'd do that, but I'm not fucking interested! Monster.com may not have the privilege of kissing my ass! They are, however, welcome to eat all of my fecal matter.

Evil chages dialogue
The graphic work here and the text are so small, you'll have to click the pics to read.
Top: Man walks into the room and finds a drunk woman and knows just what to do ... steal her drink. I was considering putting in her statements of, "I put a cigarette out in it"* but the bubbles were fixed poorly for that.
Bottom: The dialogue was changed drastically, but based on the opening panel of a woman with an open open-shirt talking with a reservationist or porter. Either she would be a "lady of the evening" or neurotic/psychotic. I chose the latter.
* from Terminator, Detective to Detective (Lance Henriksen and Paul Winfield)
I wound up not calling this place
Not only was she under the dellusion that I was perpetually "16" and petit, but also that I was a girl.*Like the the "employer" would age the age ... HA!
* paraphrased from Christmas Story
felonious act: "Killing in the name of" *
I feel complacent in actions of others, yet feel justified in others. Taking and swallowing this jagged pill, I'm a bad and poor Christian. I'm also a pragmatist in that, I'd proactively act, rather than deal a person afterwords. I will use the recent Indiana sniper as an example. The boy, hopefully tried as a man, got angry about deer gutting, "is it deer season, I didn't think so", and went on a shooting spree, targeting unknowns.
Now, is it likely that this boy would act out violently again as a "legal" adult -- certainly. No psychologist in the world could rightly say or write that this aggressive boy wouldn't be a danger to others. I would use this person as an example of the fatality waiting to happen, when a man strikes out violently, supposedly to family's great surprise. "Gee! I didn't see it. I knew he had a temper, where he ran over mannequins when he was petrubed at work, but I never thought he was violent."
Society lucked out here, sadly not before one man was killed and other persons injured. I don't feel ill or poor in my "faith" in condeming him to die. He is not elligible for execution because of plea bargaining, in that he confessed in exchange for life.
In the end, as a neo-socialist, I would sacrifice rights in favor of security. This sounds communist or is it? How many people are willing to let the government wiretap in order to save our nation ... many! I am confortable in my own crimes, not being charged or convicted of these daily crimes, yet -- I can't say that arresting me and charging me would be unjustified. My crimes I shall list on a later post.
* Rage Against the Machine
sleeping with the friendly
Ah, the curse of being a light sleeper. The benefit is ... smaller/lesser chance of successful robbery or sneaky disturbance of any kind. Since I don't have pets ... that works out okay. The cat, the family used to have at one point would generally choose night as the right time to wander -- especially outside.
"Hey, wake up", meowed the cat. If that didn't work, he'd step on your face and gaping mouth, assured to wake you. "Hey, while you're up, could you let me out? It's been ten minutes ... there aren't any critters I can pounce right now, I'd like in ... meow, [scratch forever] meow!"
Dogs get used to a person's schedule a little easier, roughly finding that better bed time, as it doesn't help them to be lively with no human to play, so they turn into a 1st shift, 2nd shift or 3rd shift dog. Cats, I don't think, have this ability or interest.
Pets do keep you healthy through mental acitivity, physical acitivity and emotional bonding -- better than TV, but you can't choose the channel.
neighborhood stereo bully
He's smokes, he drinks, he plays his stereo loudly ... he's my neighbor. You can't pick 'em, and don't dare join 'em. He's not without good qualities, but the smoke going into the AC daily -- aggrivating! The stereo, bothersome, but I hope, with higher gas prices that he turns off his ruddy truck more often, therefore more likely to also off the stereo. It is the urban thing to do -- have a stereo on wheels.
I used to deafen myself and others with my music, but I think that my inferior (stereo envy) systems in all of my cars have all been well surpassed. I think the cicadas each excel my vehicles' music by 12 + Db. Anyway ... irksome. I don't mind so much the afternoon or morning or mid-evening thing, but the 1:00 or 5:00 thing ... he has to know that more than fifty percent of his neighbors are sleeping at that time.
Betting on work
I have now 8 or so accounts with places trying to get jobs. I review that I've had very few employers read my resume' but my resume has appeared in employer searches. I could drop cash for "get noticed now", but I think I'll pass, as that isn't a guarantee for a job. It's odd that I should pay an employer to hire me. What kind of unnatural order is that?
I now more frequently get, "[we] noticed your posting and invite you to this 'exclusive' meeting at these times. This is an excellent marketing opportunity for the 'right individual'. Our people, on average* earn $45,000 - $90,000 the first year."
What I'd like is a chance not fluffy, hooey, or more stinking sales ptiches for a person, myself, seeking a friggin' job!
After reading the paragraphs of ambiguities you're left with, WTH? I hit the link and there, a questionaire, which is really what the persons hired would be doing, getting info about people: name, address, email, interests, other bio info the person was stupid enough to dispense. I think, laterally, the Nigerian prince might be as likely real as this database dump.
* be weary of stats. Example: on average of "our people" could be sample of top 15 performers in booming Seattle, Washington, 2001; or similar.
Sound on
My sister, though violently ill from being put under, is better today. She called this morning and she is naturally displeased with her stomach, but okay. I hope she naps. She had to allay her daughter's fears of great illness in favor of more rational and reasonable outcomes, in that she'll make it. Keeping up her spirits, she now has a card indicating her metal inclusion or her new bionic status. Does she now have super hearing or fantastic balance? No. She has that which she had twenty years ago, being average hearing and subpar coordination. She is, however, better.
Glug, glug, glug. Let's finish the cup.
Wherever I go, I bring the Civas with us. I now know why CVS does and former chain Hooks pharmacy did carry alcohol. You don't use Chivas to clean wounds, but to wipe memories clean. A family member is plunging into the world of Alcohol For Dummies. If that person were a robot from Futurama, I might understand, but being human -- I feel it is the tail end of suicidal out.
I think I'll eat an olive at the end of the year, in remembering that person who may see 2008, but doubtful 2009. "So, here's to all the pencil pushers, may they all get lead poisoning."
I found a message in a bottle, on it was written, "stop".

chemicals win
My sister had minor surgery -- ear, and took terribly to the anesthesia and was puking all night. My experience was much the same in that I had 5 days of puking, so that I was dehydrated. I hope she doesn't have the same reaction. According to my brother-in-law, she took ninety extra minutes to stir from the anesthesia and keep away. My, oh, my what a wonderful day, a 92 degree Saturday she will have.
On the light side, I got to entertain my neice, who otherwise would have been alone. Out of poker with four, I lost the largest amount and the most often. Thankfully we were using chips and not money.
namesake
My grandfather, after whom I'm named was a car salesman. It would be just too ironic if that were my end job, smoking -- virtual chimney, drinking whiskey instead of water and dying of three types of cancer. Hmmm, I think I'll not favor the cancer, any of them and not really interested in selling cars. My father reminded me of the silliness that his wife, my grandmother naturally, didn't know how to drive until she was forty or fifty some years old. How unbearable is that?
From that set of patches, you don't get a quilt, but rather my father's patchwork mind of logic with missing pieces, and cleverness without much creativity. I was blessed with unambition, general stupidity and a soft heart which is growing tougher and stone-like every day.
I shall not be famous and am okay with that, but I'd rather achieve more than MDH I, though he never knew there would be a second, dying before I was born.
Declined
I have yet to photograph a mural on a building. Sadly, this well done work is on a strip club. I noticed it while going to a restaurant. My neice was on the correct side to make the shot, but declined to take a photograph. Hmmm, I wonder if it's something to do with the smut? Anyway, she had a slight headache and is presently overly light-sensitive. I don't know if it is biologically or chemically based, or just a thing that will pass (most likely).
Daniel Radcliffe, of Harry Potter fame supposedly will perform in a play+ that has some late teen and adult themes to it. Sadly, there seems little to stop this poor kid from stripping, as part of the role, nude and have sexual climax while riding on a horse. What a sad bit. Scarier still, Richard Griffiths will be in the play as well.
If they were to offer Emma Watson such a role, I would hope that she'd have the good sense to decline. I know that many people worked like mad to get the Olsen twins to be naughty, but they had the right people around them to shield them from the weirdos. Perhaps Emma also has such people and a good-souled (rather than souless++) publicist. I mention this because women and girls are more often approached than are men.
Rupert Grint, underated in my POV, hopefully is and will be wise enough to stay clear of that. Later in life, he could do The Full Monty, which never showed genitalia and featured adult men, comically filled a void for the year in entertainment. That's a good bit different than sexual gratification from riding a horse, a beast the main character favors sadistically injuring. The whole thing reminds me of the so well declared Corpus Christi that the only ones who would go to it are those who aren't offended by the content -- leaving only bisexual antheist uh ... ah, yes, Hollywood and Sundance.

Supposedly AOL is considering becoming a free service. If that's enticing to you, well ... I have this island for sale and I work with a Nigerian prince generally. That's like free toxic waste. chances are they'll make it for new subscribers only.

Snoop Doggy Dog of blogging
coming up with mad insane crap every single day -- hey! I did a blog because my mind is ablaze, ya. Not cuz I hate ya, but cuz I'm insane by nature. The ODD man, will only see me man!
I'm sure had I been born in the 50's, I would have been the Old Insane **stard. OIB. None of y'all better look at me funny, huh! Here's the wack -- now give me my money!
Terminator me on razor table.
Which fictional character represents me well? I guess Pondo Sinatra from Party Animal who was told why they call it **ssy*1, and spent the movie trying to acquire it through any number of means. Typically the underdog wins, but in this -- he dies in his dire attempt to acquire the one pure axiom. Reall, required viewing, the movie's tabbboo drug scene is Airplane level of over-the-top with a garden trowel for prepping and "cutting" the lines--really short mounds of coke.
*1 Naughty By Nature's OPP
---
And now for something, completely different: foley artists.
Robin Harlan is a foley artist ... did work on Party Animal -- thanks IMDb. Ah, the nearly lost art. In the early 20th century, hey had performed while watching the action on a screen. Now, they don't worrry so much about timing, as that it fixed in editing, but hats off to this nearly lost art!
Many must suppose that they haven't heard of such a critter -- mythos like the minotaur, but not so. Blowout, uh ... with Travolta, involved a sound recorder, but that's not quite it. A folly artist matches sound to action, like punching a roast for fist fight sounds. I wouldn't doubt that Nightmare On Elm Street relied heavily on these folks.
Scratch, scratch, scratch ... do you hear destiny, history, or rap?
Sinful sot
I was driving carefully last night, seeing the glowing eyes of wandering animals and being too slow to capture on camera the none-too fast raccoons crossing the rural road. I wasn't cautious enough and crushed and crumpled a sad little oppossum. I knew I hit something, but was unsure what. Stupidly I was thinking ... "I brought my tripod, but forgot the wedge ... go back and get it." It was raining and I dispelled the idea, knowing the rain would worsen. Had I stopped then and got the wedge -- the possum would be alive by me, perhaps dead by another -- to ignorant to avoid cars. I got a few shots in the night, later woken and kept awake by the storm and other issues. A nagging -- a displeasure with accidental killing. I fitfully slept.
Tonight, fewer critters on the road. High jumping toads crossing the road -- welcoming their deaths by leaping high, not far. They were and are summer fodder -- living only a short while, some species longer than others, most dying before mating. And no for a really nasty segue, mating before dying talk shows.
Paternity testing on controversy shows ... "He's the father" where a line of men are tested and found to not be the father. I can't decided which is sicker, the guys sitting elbow to elbow okay with having sex with a loose cannon -- they, themselves complacent biomes of viruses or the female who can't narrow the partner down to a list shorter than five. Some people should not be capable of procreating. That is a sick, sick, sick, scenario.
knack
Lori has a knack of calling me when I can't make it to the phone, restroom, or I'm elbow deep in something, paint, blood, dirt, or something. Today was no exception. She called to tell me that she, Charlie, and I weren't making it to the movie either Ice Age 2 Meltdown ("Food Glorious Food") or Garfield "Tale of Two Kitties".
Meanwhile back at the homestead, Monkeyjack had plans for me to help him set out a boku supply of garage sale hopeful items -- millions, as he described it. Mainly, I was to help him move a sleeper sofa. If you have never moved one -- you are in for a a treat. I have NEVER known one to be comfortable on which to sleep, moving them is no picnic either.
That didn't transpire, so since weather held rain, rain, rain -- good for crops, bad for moving, I met up with MR and watched a little DS9, followed by police video while playing mission pissyouoff catchphrase II. For some of the phrases, they might as well have used Shawn Cassidy for what good they were. If you don't know that one, some of the others you wouldn't know or have a clue as to how to get them to say, "babbadooba" from Eddie Murphy's Delirious.
If you have the "knack" you can do 80% to 30% or likely somewhere in between.
Al-Zawahri calls for death to Muslims
Laws that should be, but aren't
Upon filing temporary insanity pleas, attorney filing motion should then either house and feed the client or become cellmates with that person until the beginning of the trial. I think that should then put a GREAT limit on the number of temporary insanity pleas. Also, those attorneys protecting child molesters should therefore be required to have the client be the primary caregiver to their children (or family children ... step, grand, cousin, neice, nephew or the like). If the lawyer says no -- too bad. That is the price for protecting those whom you suspect are guilty. I think then, those in the city office defense team will have a backlog of sickening persons to defend, therefore kept off the street until their court date.*1
I don't dislike lawyers, I dislike many whom I have experienced. Certainly, since the general feeling for lawyers is low, I'm not the only one. My divorce lawyer was as effective as Steak & Shake at filing and getting the job done. The "steakburger" didn't disguise the general lack of interest and 50's atmosphere, as though divorces weren't that common. It was, therefore, a (insert word here) burger, no matter the wording.
I haven't had the horror of a loved one torn apart in life, then in the courtroom by a lawyer defending the guilty. I don't know which one I would hate greater -- the criminal or the criminal in the suit.
* exceptions would be made for appointed attorneys, as saly, that is there job. Personally, I find the public in general in apathy to crime because it doesn't happen to enough people to really affect them*2
*2 valid crime statistics would show rise in crime, including violent crime (which includes rape)
la politiciens folles
Well Hello Dummy [continue chorus]!
I am (law) Bender, pleaes insert lobbyist-padding. With wiretaps and "unethical" congressional raiding, "How dare you raid my home after accepting bribes", it will be interesting, perhaps, this fall with election 2006, leading to hullabaloo 2007 for 2008.
In reflecting on my political angst, I know that MR and I are different in many different ways. If we were on a FOX network -- "if only" MR might remark, the FOX team would sit behind MR jotting notes while he tried to push on my idiogenic*1 apathy. Certainly MR keeps up on politics more than I, leaving me more like his perspective on 'dumocrats' who bitch without thinking or (in his thinking) without reason. Whether justified or spiteful obstructions, those feeling disempowered will always let you know it.
On the subject of criminal justice, however, we concure almost perfectly.
On persons, which I favor over any groups or parties, some tend to seek their ability to act out the part or be good democrats or good republicans, that is following an agenda for that sect. To me, that's like being a good Baptist or good company man. I'd much rather have a good surgeon, a good doctor than a good "medicine man". I am interested, sadly ill and poorly informed on the actions of persons on all bills. Even the bills and laws themselves are so lengthy that the average person would favor a two sentence synopsis of it, rather than a better abstract be it six or twelve paragraphs long.
In voting for persons, there are offices for which I don't always vote. The job, government obviously, but doesn't pay exceedingly well. How much do I know about the job, let alone the persons who don't have the cash to wage political war for a $20K job?
Opportunites arise in voting to answer questions to "assist" lawmakers. Too often voters believe that in answering these five questions ("three questions, sir"), that they are actually passing that law. I would like, however, for a greater interest in input by the general populace. Granted, most can't write, let alone type, but beyond that, legislators ("mount up") should be interested in the goals of their so-called constituants. In this repbulic (not direct democray -- impractical for millions), the governing body acting independant leads directly to corruption.
Be it real or perceived by many, working irrespective of those governed puts a gulf so wide between the governed and those who govern that languages and cultures are different.
In defense of the government, some populations are, well, stupid. Communicating with them would be difficult. Say, like the idiots who wouldn't flee New Orleans or those Florida dead who "ride out another one no greater than the one before", who can't be that bright. Writing about Florida, Dade County, how many voters does it take to understnad a voting machine? Also ... if you have a fill-in-the-blank card anywhere, voting won't take place. Would I want suggestions from people who don't read English who have lived here for thirty years? Would I want suggestions from people who can't push buttons? Hmmm to that, I'd have to say no.
End run of criping, I think that an analysis or background check for each person running should be mandatory. If the person has a felony -- no guns allowed and MAY NEVER RUN FOR OFFICE. If the person has 2 misdemeanors, other than traffic offenses, that person MAY NEVER RUN FOR OFFICE. Upon violation of this, the person is immediately taken into custody, those responsible for hidden those facts also taken into custody, all priviledges, salaries be retroactively stripped. I wouldn't elect a bank robber and I shouldn't have a felon (of any kind) or convict on the ballot.
To this last degree, I think MR and I will ... well, not mesh ideas.
*1 of unknown origin
Remaking Ishtar
M. Night Shyamalan might as well give it a shot. It's not like his movies are, uh, action packed. Ishtar was remarked as the poorest return movie until brilliant Kevin Costner put together the play dough Waterworld. I think, since Shyamalan likes long winded movies -- putting Charles Darwin and Stephen King to shame. If you haven't read Origin of the Species, it makes War and Peace as quick as the "TV Guide".
Please have an assistant director in on the next movie to make it, uh ... interesting for the viewer. I'm writing off M. Night like I have Ang Lee and Martin Lawrence as I did --early, but not prematurely on the Coreys (Felman and Haim) while others sadly punished themselves by watching them.
I won't ask myself, "what's this movie about", but rather, "what other movies are coming" when seeing another Shymalan preview.
I won't see Hollywoods McDonaldland attempts at movies like: Roadhouse 2, Miami Vice, Santa Clause 3, Sisterhood of the Traveling Willburys (oh, sorry, pants), Clerks II, Jackass 2, Batman (version anything -- that cannot be made -- it just can't).
Father fighter
My father, with whom I have battled minorly for so many decades, wins one with me. During my teens years, it was a nasty bit between my father and I. How the folks liked me, I don't know. I wasn't likable and really -- if I weren't family, I wouldn't have been loved. Anyway ...
My father has had several bouts with cancer. It is highly likely that he still has it. Though sore and sometime lethargic, he battles on. He buys thousands of dollars worth of medicine and vitamins in a measure to stick around. He is a fighter. For this, I am proud of him. He hasn't lied down and died, but fought. He fights less for himself and more for others. He's going to stick around as long as he can, though believing that he'll not make another 10 years. I hope that he's wrong.

mosquito ghost
So FYI, maybe, just maybe, you shouldn't step on roaches unless you can sterilze your feet or walk a thousand feet through course material -- gravel or the like.
Mosquitoes are easy to kill, but impossible to kill them all. If you've ever been camping, you know that no matter how much screening you have, they enter the tent and find you or parts. I never remember to deafen myself by spraying my ear, so that is a good target as is my nose. If all else false, lips are blood rich.
cityscape from the park
Southern Indiana has caverns and old protected forests and some hills. Up nort', no such things.
The comedy of the city is that the police station sits right next to a crime-heavy residential area, the level of crime has changed little since the cops have moved there. It isn't without virtue.
There are new, better buildings being built and has a nationally renowned geneology department in the library, which is due to reopen in 2007. I want to check into my roots, but that'll have to wait til next season.
As I lie dead, on the grassy plain near the river, cicada deafen the air with their haunting calls. Flies buzz around feeding and ants find a large--fat, cache of food before them. There isn't a mosquito around, despite the body of me and the body of water nearby.
I was born here, I'll probably die here -- convenient, you know.
Tony J. -- whomever he is, helped. Thanks!
Speed Channel entices viewers with old '80s T & A movies
Monday night/evening, Speed played Used Cars. Now, really it was a comedy, but it had a lot of nudity in it to really capitvate the male audience, which it did. If they didn't have some of the nudity, in the movie ad compaigns, the movie would have had runner-up slapstick making it a worse movie. I just found it funny that S P E E D would play used cars that had cars in it. There was no real race or sports. I could see the strange tangents to sports being: end of movie where recent teen drivers are asked to race like hell across the desert without a road to the car lot. There was a sporting event -- football, where there was an ad compaign, but it wasn't a racing movie.
I stop here to digress on a few of notable people: David Lander, who found more challenging roles after LaVern & Shirley difficult to obtain yet still as funny paired with partner from the same, Michael McKean. The star of the movie is Kurt Russell, who did some Disney movies then off to R movies like (not listed in chronological order) Thing, Escape From New York, Soldier, Used Cars, and then back to Disney with Sky High. Apparently Overboard, with wife Goldie Hawn redeemed him. I think few stars go nasty and get to return to Disney.

long ago suggestion
You should do bartending.
Really?
Yeah. I mean, you like to mix drinks. You'd do okay with that.
Yeah, I can imagine mixing drinks all night, then teaching in the day. I wonder how many parents I'd meet that I didn't know.
Hey, Randy! Your dad's tab is running high, when you go home tonight, tell him to stop by and make a payment.
Elizabeth, your mom's, uh ... stuff is behind the bar. She can pick them up any time (stripped clothes).
Hey, at night I got deal with every schmuck's problem, don't bring me yours kid!

Look, it's not as if I burnt anyone ... oops, I can't accurately say that. It's not as if anyone got hurt ... oops, can't say that. Look, not every one of my drinks was bad. I just liked "gasoline"+ for beverage and everyone else wanted something that didn't cause auto-response of gagging and puking. Geez!
Contrary to this comic, I didn't force anyone to drink.

Wrath of ... my word! I can't believe they really made these statements. Okay, FOX -- you definitely win this one! Fox or whomever for putting this on video. Also, thanks for the person taping this and putting it on the internet.
Later on in the video, it details the woman speaking is the spokesperson for a family, whose views are Satanic in contrast/comparison to the Baptist sect to which they are members. Yikes. While not the norm, the signs are too tragic.
Sadly, FOX therefore gets a -- Jerry Springer award for this one. If this were, say, branch davidians+, I'd say -- way to go, but not a media-hungry family or individual. For shame.

flickr theif strikes again
Borrowing from Comcast's advertisement: "Are your ads getting to the right people?"
Pretty white women, dressed in white calling to Israel for peace. Am I missing the boat here or isn't Hezbollah the threat, seconded by Hamas, tertiary Iran, fascilitated by Jordan, Syria, and smaller Arafat-Palastinians? So ... these ladies here are calling to English speaking Israel, "Yes to Peace, no to terror." I applaud the effort, the idea needs a re-work. "Our hearts are with you" is a reasonable message.
Eating cancer
Eat, develop cancer, dieWhile this isn't the stuff, it is similar. MR and I, as well as millions of munchers loved to eat heatable canned cheese and Doritos. I remember especially enjoying nacho cheese on Nacho Cheese flavor Doritos, "for that overwhelming nacho taste" as MR had used. MR suspected that it was as cancer-causing as asbestos and smoking. Yet, here, reformulated it returns. Sad to say the picture is blurry, but perhaps it's the Ring followed by a phone call, "Seven days." [click]

(AP) Dutch Nuns on Bikes Chase Suspected Thief
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands
Two Dutch nuns, wearing habits and riding bikes, chased a suspected thief through Amsterdam, police said Monday.
On Saturday evening, one of the sisters believed she recognized a man walking past their chapel in southern Amsterdam as a thief who snatched hundreds of dollars in cash from the building two weeks earlier, Amsterdam police spokesman Rob van der Veen said.
She invited him inside for a drink and asked a fellow nun to alert police.
The man, apparently suspecting what was happening, fled the building and snatched a bicycle from a passer-by.
"The nuns then grabbed their bikes and gave chase. They tried to grab him, but he managed to escape into a residential neighborhood and they lost him," Van der Veen said. Police hunted for the man in the neighborhood but could not find him.
From someone else's collection
"Yes, but what is it?"
"It's an egg!"
"An egg?"
"Yeah, you know ... an egg! You see I won that. It's a national award."
"Hell; you say you won that?"
Perhaps it a job security peice for glass cleaners as the pigeons probably drop by often.
New Ang Lee movie
It's a story about Rosencrantz and Guildenstern whose lives interrupted when they assigned to take Hamlet to be beheaded. Well, the homosexual comedy really gets going when the execution order is fouled up and Hamlet is to be headed and the story goes on ...
I think some directors should burn in Hell this time, not having to wait for the afterlife/afterdeath. If there's an opening, a good boxer takes a swing. That's what I'm doing here. Next up is Kevin Costner -- whose movies need no introduction (they all blow chunks -- out the nose).
DS9 series
Okay, so the series isn't perfect, but ... it is better than the next generation, for the several episodes I saw of that. I didn't and couldn't watch Voyager, as it always gave me Deja Vu during and after. It was too strange to watch it.
The series -- with many subplots and an overall plot, which I think the many writers decided ought to be included, is okay. If you remember the original series -- no plot to the series, other than go here, get into and out of trouble with science fiction and the occasional political message.
Ground Zero
I would also like to invite Hezbollah, Hamas and the Iranian military to ground zero, located in scenic Syria. Some might note that there is no ground zero in Syria. Oh, but wait. Just get all of those hate-lovin' folks together -- smack dab in Syria and I think they'll find that there will be much obliging persons making that celebrated ground zero. I think you know what I mean. In the end, Martyrs can't be choosers, otherwise it wouldn't work.

Reading a book online
How would you like to read 700 short and detailed jobs listings. Does this sound right for you? Then you must be a job hunter, like me. Join me in saluting those responsible for writing incomplete ads on "possible" and "potential" values and salaries. Please also applaud those who offer <$30K, requiring 5+ years of expeience with travel and relocation very likely.
One of the worst offers was for $23,600 annual working including nights, weekends, holidays and very likely relocation. What a rip off.
Anyway, I sent out some resumes after hours of tedious reading finding grammatical errors in job postings and listings. I am spent!

Picture worth a lot of critique
I have blocked out their faces for good reason. What you can't see is that the "man" on the right is really joyful about the superman toy and the girl to the left was, not so excited, but happy. I am left with the picture on the box of a too-happy superman, fill in any words you need. The girl here is only twice its height, therefore quite young. I wonder though, what is that thing in her hand? It's not a Mr. Microphone nor for karaoke can it be?
What could make this more disturbing, oh, I know ... the boxer shorts at the top. This was on a picture website, not marked as much of anything. I randomly found it and indeed found it. I found it disturbing on a number of levels. God help this child, and maybe put in something for the guy there too.

"They only tell ... only tell what they wanna"
I definitely know some things or do I? What I can read is cold filtered for my reading pleasure. What I can see on TV is warm pasteurized for security. What do or can I know? I can't know much and I read lots. The media today reminds me much of the women's magazines -- well scoffed for their lack of content despite volumous girth and weight. A $4 magazine contained less info than a doctor's pamphlet, yet cost $4 for an encyclopedia of ads and "free samples" of odiferous perfumes -- smelling of gumshoe tartar.
I could read on a fourth generation (4th-person) story on something in the middle East. This is a story where the names have been changed because otherwise the stories wouldn't sell. Also -- the "extraneous" has been removed and the more difficult concepts have been switched to a Matel (R) box cover. When you read it, it's generally as ambiguous as it is rampant with inuendos and contrived agenda relationships.
Without these, I would never know that Bush is to blame for Bolivian cotton price rises and that Al Gore once bought a fuel inefficient car for a friend who sold it to a brother who sold it to a cousin of a former roomate, who then did something questionable. I like to claim that I don't watch soap operas, but I do. I watch them everytime I turn on the news. "You know the boys in the newsroom have got a running bet"
It the pagentry and idol worship of glitz TV. Every newscaster, decorated in garb for the affair. The news begins and it is why this bit jibes well with the correct side. I'll even have thirteen people on this news channel agree with me and tell you why -- there, you have the news. You can't argue with us, you just heard thirteen people side with me.
Uh, if the emperor is nude, he's nude, no matter how the collective or mob perceive it or believe that he's clothed. More often I am blindsided with images that seem authentic, seem complete until you listen. There are too many generalities there. If you hear 80% opinion with 20% fact, that isn't right.
You see, we have here three words of a ten page report. Now, what these words mean are ... and that makes us right and the first to show it to you. Real News, Real Fast, Fair and Balanced. If you have to say it, people can't tell by looking. Great and good things tend not to need labels. If you have to say what it is, then it isn't.
Real News: in ten second spots, repeated every half-hour.
Real Fast: nice grammar; apart from the speed of the statements, the commercials are long and the tail ends of the news (CNN a.m.) have "community link" and "Suzanne" with statements for the AARP
Fair and Balanced: hmmm, don't think so. Name ten non-Republicans who watch FOX News. Why? FOX News is a conservative Republican soundboard, much like CNN (Turner fool television) is Democratic liberalism.
Fox News is more likely to bring on a group of yessirs and andhows to verify their statments.
I would like some news in edgewise, between the rally to the left, rally to the right, do the news political hokey pokey every single night. In the end, do I feel informed? If I watch CNN, I get long speeches against Bush. If I listen to FOX news, I get long winded speeches supporting Bush. What if Bush has little to do with it and I want just the news -- the facts, not how it relates to the 2008 election? I'm stuck, I can't get no ... news satsifaction.
Hamas US invasion scenarios [wargaming]
Hamas successfully lands in LA, California and tries to take over city: overly protected with guns, citizens repel and conquer invaders within 30 minutes
Hamas successfully lands in NY city, NY: while mixing better in the area, are quickly robbed of their weapons, including strapped C-4 vests and are left in various parts of the city, lost and naked.
Hamas successfully lands in Texas: They are uncharacteristically comfortable, but upon crossing someone's yard and slain together by unhappy neighbors
Hamas successfully lands in Kentucky: They are as foreign as E.T. and are subdued and introduced as the other dark meat at a few restaurants while the supplies last
Hamas successfully lands in Kansas: A decade later, they find their way out, but are intermarried withe the locals and have since renounced their attack on America
Hamas successfully lands in Utah and find that polygamy is accepted and finding a much better, easier life, settle and never leave.
Hamas successfully lands in Las Vegas, Nevada and after selling their weapons for cash, gamble away -- some winning millions, others selling organs for that one big win. In the end, they forget why they came, having not seen the "real sun" in 96 days.
Hamas successfully lands in in Indiana: after fighting and blowing up buildings, damage is assessed and there weren't many buildings away. The neo-Nazis hunt them, while the Klan stupidly thinks the white garb is in need of ironing and fixes them. The Hamas find themselves running in circles.
Hamas successfully lands in Chicago, IL: the are stuck at O'Hare for so long, they wind up blowing themselves up on the tarmac waiting to get out
unanimous adoption
US and Israel alike wholeheartedly adopt triggerless guns. After years of arguing about ethical use of triggerless guns, US companies have created and released new triggerless guns for military.
"It was in constant conflict that I found the true need for such a weapon. I asked several military personnel their opinions on this. Generally I got a positive feedback", said Malcom Durtch.
"The only time I stopped firing was when I was reloading. It was madness really. I would lay down supressing fire for as long as I could, making a daisy chain with others along a ridge, where one team would peter out, needing to reload, my partner and I would start firing before they would exhaust their load. The next team would do the same and so on. All of our fingers were tired and I actually have a repetitive motion injury to my hand. I'm not alone." -- PVC Redman
"This is great! I'm standing patrol or walking patrol every day. Not a day goes by without some guy popping out of nowhere, shooting up my station. I return fire in short bolts, but that never works. I begin firing a straight line and the guy gets scared out of his mind. He turns runs, and I tag him. Most of the time I find various explosives on him. Sometimes, they just blow themselves up right there. If I were to shoot once and wait, I'd either be dead or there would be more of them coming behind him. With this new triggerless gun, it's bam! There's no waiting. We're gonna get more of these the dike will be fixed. There won't be this trickling of Syrians or Jordanians here." -- border patrolman
New triggerless guns. Sometimes there's no point in not firing. This is the gun for those points. When your gain is measured in putting down the enemy, these guns are your newest and best defense.

What is a quiet evening and night?
I wouldn't know. The Bumpis families still have fireworks! 5 minutes here, 30 minutes there. You'd think they would all pal around together for one -- just one night, but no. They either try to one up each other or are just buying fireworks with their groceries. Please, and for the sake of all that is rational, stop firing the ****ing fireworks for a month. You have to about be out of firework money or excitement with them right?
I've got a great way for you to experience them -- cram them up your backside and fire away! If Indiana wants to repeal it's decission, this is an example of ammunition that proponents could use. I think the tax dollars being acquired here and spent here makes more sense than neighboring states, but gracious.
I am tired of the asses with fuses! I have grown used to the train, though I hear it often, as I am a light sleeper -- training, not of my own. Have you had a spouse or lover who wakes you when they hear a spider spin web, I have. I found that sleeping soundly so that dust mites walking doesn't bug me, was wasted on bed mates who would hear the same. Through angered waking repeatedly, I now rest fitfully and lightly. I suppose that I could hear someone robbing me blind then -- alright!
Anyway ... during the typing of the post, more fireworks. I wonder if the term works in fireworks is related to the fact that those firing them seem not to work day shifts (if at all). They work so the humans don't have to work.
Sent to bed without any supper
or something like that
He killed them because he didn't get his way. Hmm ... I suggest execution, promptly, because he wasn't forthcoming with evidence against himself. Seriously, I would like him to be promptly executed, having gotten away with his crimes and truly, killing family -- he killed witnesses. I can't believe the defense was criping about lack of fingerprint use in court. Uh ... didn't he live at the address where the killings took place? Would his prints already be there?
Schmucks!
Thanks MR for finding this. Also -- MR must have been searching for something else, as CNN is not his source of news -- generally.
Getting slayed tonight! He missed bowling and dinner and a trip to an amusement park. Well, you can see why he had to kill, right?

Why CNN
I was looking for a story on a police chase in Texas, running on CNN Headline News, where a robbery suspect eluded police for 90 minutes, culminating in his splashing in a shallow creek ravine. There was a stand off with the armed suspect and when I returned from dinner, CNN didn't have squat on it. How in the world could that be?
The story, it seems, was still going ... negoiations or whatever. I say fire!
You pay too many fees with eBay
They are charging you fees so that they can advertise, not only above your news search, but also for crap they don't sell. This is "police chase", but others have proven this with search terms such as "prostitutes", "slaves", "marijuanna", etc.
eBay, you charge too much, because you have too much money to be in places you don't need to be. So I guess I'll look for "rip off". You didn't disappointment me.

I had some sugar today, but my body has processed it like I was at a Hershey factor. I'm a little jittery and can't stop scratching my scalp and arms. Wicked allergy ... what gives? I actually had less sugar today than I did yesterday. Am I diabetic or just allergic to sugar in combination with other substances. I haven't narrowed it down yet. Yikes and I a mess.

To think that I feed the things. I don't feed pigeons, nor Canadian Geese that are as vile as they are large and poopy.

Well, no. I never really stop bitching, I just have long pauses and long breaths. I like the fact that my spam folder is less filled every month, but my ISP is running ads on the side. What gives? They charge me monthly and others too, what? That isn't enough income?

Last night, M. Knight Schamalamadingdong's Lady in the Water, flick, undoubtedly going to be 99% shadows, dialogue and long breaks of watching nothing, followed by an Aseop summation or worse still, so that's why you should pitch your garbage after watching a movie. Someone might collect it all and put it on film. The trailer show suspense -- closing on terror, not for timid eyes, for sure. Why should anyone care -- it's on TV when children are watching. What's wosrse?
How about advertising for Hi-C and Kool Aid at 10:45 at night? Who are you reaching? Yeah, I'm at home, watching TV and suddenly, gosh -- I really got get that at the store -- right now! I sleep, wake, forget I ever saw it. Bad, bad, stupid placement.
Mythbusters
I often miss it, but I saw one last night. Steam cannon failures and successes. That bit was very, very funny.
Interestingly, they proved in another episode that: KARI BYRON is a cutie ... oh, wait, that was never a myth, anyway, could you get shocked during an electrical storm using the phone; using a shower, and if a bullet that shoots a man shot in the testis and continues on to a woman, striking her abdominally -- could the sperm impregnate her (based on old medical journal). Interesting ... wacky, at least. Monkeyjack reported to me that at one point in time they featured one of the gurus' houses -- chuck full of mythbusters props and contraptions. I would suspect much like Carrotop's hair or head. It must be scary.

marriage counselor
Example: Boy was I pissed! I was walking down the street grumbling to myself, making scars in the sidewalk while I carried "my life" in my suitcase when I saw the sign. That's it! I dropped the case and ran back to my woman and after getting some bruises from dragging her there, I found that I was the problem and that I should, uh ... after the thirteth **ck you, I kinda forgot it, but anyway, I was then able to go back and get more of my stuff while the counselor and my woman had a great conversation about what a rotten SOB I am. Gosh, thanks! I never would have gotten some of this back from her.
example 2: There we were, shouting in the street at each other -- no one to blame, then she saw the sign -- counseling. That's what we need, so we went in and imagine my surprise when we were bitching so long that we didn't see that she wasn't home, nor that she and the couple she was seeing jumped in the car and fled as if bomb-strapped terrorists had wandered onto her porch. We didn't pay a dime.
Hey, guys, just FYI: we're gonna start nuki'

I actually understand exactly why Israel is attacking, as they are surrounded by groups hostile to them for a long time. If Hezboula is expunged, there is Hamas, then anything group. Iran paying for them is hardly surprising.
Israel named after battling God. Israel also meaning chosen by God after battling the angel. I think the Lebanon be might better named Samson, forever warring, weakened by seduction, allowed strength to fight one last time, killing all, he perishing too.

I don't like not working. I remember two years ago, I enjoyed sitting around in summer, reading book after book, but not this year. I'd like money and responsibility and income, and mind-stimulating activities.
