finished two "tings"
Green River Killer book by Ann Rule and "Empowerment Takes More Than One Minute". Wordy, windy, and stupid story around the concept of share information ... and so on. My company would never ... never go for such a thing. Allow management through and to others -- no way, eh. The company generally slinks away from change -- change, viral like AIDS, right?

Branch Lohanians
There's a new sect of a religious order whose precepts are "spend", "buy", "shop", "tramp". One small clause made by our founder was simply, "no photos, please". We, the devoted throngs of jobless groupies embrace this new mantra ... "no photos, please" and shall hereby stone to death anyone who takes pictures of the Lohan. Clearly, she has ordered us to slay people who take her picture, have older pictures of her before her statement, have drawn pictures of her, or have engraved images of her.
Uh ... no, I didn't ask or tell you to kill people.
We, the devoted groupies shall kill all who are in possession of your picture, oh mighty Lohan.
Stop it! "Zealots!" +

playing chicken
I didn't even get an invite but an opossum wanted to play chicken with me last night. I was driving through town when I saw the little critter on the street. I slammed on my breaks and saw everything on my seat fly onto the floor. The good news, though not by much, the waddling wanderer was not struck by my car. I half expected a New Yorker voice, "Hey! I'm walkin' here!"

try me for this
It's not Muhammad as a bomb or as a cute Teddy Bear ...
no.
I shall envision, perhaps write his name on blades of grass so that each time I mow the lawn ...
I'm cutting down Muhammad.
I hear Jesus, Jews, America defamed, berated daily. Eat this Sudan!
Let your piety find forgiveness not vendetta or you can rot like the things pictured above each and every year.

Backward nations ...
like Saudi Arabia lashing a rape victim;
Sudan for punishing a person for naming a Teddy Bear Muhammad;
decades of oppressing women and children, teaching a whack fundamentalist view of Islam;
Afghanistan favoring the Taliban who favored enslaving and killing their women and girls;
Somalia for favoring war over peace;
Syria for asking the US for handouts while supporting terrorist groups that hurt the US;
Jordan for doing the same;
Palestine, as it were, for denying the Jews an existence.
I strongly encourage the US to start billing these countries or so-called nations for the support we give them. I know that the US enforced a 21 year-old drinking age by simply offering road funding only to those states adopting the 21 year-old drinking age. While a few states challenged it -- they all succumbed to the drinking age.
"Secure your borders; eliminate terrorists; respect other nations, or we pull any and all funding."

Moon landing
I saw a moon landing debunking. The tag line of "proof" was bad, as the postulations were, unprovable, either true or false. The British examiner noted flashes on the screen, failing to remark that the film was grainy as heck, there flashes on the suits as well. His thinking was wire harnesses, trying to explain astronauts' ability to stand on one foot and do many unbelievable feats. This likely comes from a man who cannot imagine 1/6 of Earth's gravity. I guess he isn't a swimmer, right?

Using this map as a reference ...
We could remove the cancer sites here (marked in white) and be safer. There is no guarantee that this will permanently remove any and all infection or danger, but it is a very large section. I strongly recommend the removal of this large site.
There are other questionable sites, but with this procedure to remove the worse sections, this will clear up much of the extending infection.

Last Night
Thinking 'bout last night
Undercredited, undercited ... Travelling Willburys
"Last Night" lyrics
She was there at the bar, she heard my guitar
She was long and tall, she was the queen of them all
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
She was dark and discreet, she was light on her feet
We went up to her room and she lowered the boom
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
(bridge 1)
Down below they danced and sang in the street
While up above the walls were steaming with heat
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
I was feeling no pain, feeling good in my brain
I looked in her eyes, they were full of surprise
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
(bridge 2)
I asked her to marry me she smiled and pulled out a knife
The partys just beginning she said, its your money or you life
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Now Im back at the bar, she went a little too far
She done me wrong, all I got is this song
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night

Bigger Fish
Well ... if you hide it, hide it, then reveal it as nothing, you tend to look foolish.
MR remarked that I had "bigger fish to fry" RE: Warren report that details the JFK findings. Why in the world would you seal it? Whenever they "unseal" it, it will be denounced as a lie, just as Roswell was. They weren't upfront and didn't come up with a clever enough lie to make it pan out. Whatever happens now means -- lying government. Either you lied then or now or hid it for no reason.
That was a bad call! Continually unopening it is a bad call. Remove enough platforms and the soapboxers are on the ground and more difficult to hear -- less important. Not opening it and making it seems a conspiracy gives some the soapbox or podium.
I once found a conspiracy "this big" [hands extended from New Jersey to Wyoming, more believable than hands to California, right?

lest we forget
ZZ Top has legs and despite its end of the run touring, I still remember licks and kicks that I liked. Not to sound too Suessical, I found legs very doable, in all sense of the words and phrase.
If I had money, doggone it, I might buy one.A key feature in videos -- hotties -- babes show legs, light tight frame and wiggles that drive a man mad. Now, you don't have to show grinding to entice a man -- a pretty face, a strut and you've got us!
BTW: a light-hearted girl at work, timid, virginal (I suppose) remarked on a stripper pole today. This same person admonished me for "sonofa" never finishing anything. She is, whom I'd hope, for a daughter -- has an idea of what and who she wants to be and accomplished in her daily work. You don't often get called out by your "hopeful daughter", but you listen when it happens. Sorry K if I'm not the influence I ought to be.
I've wanted to be a "daddy" for a while and if I can be a part-time daddy to some, so be it. Since I'm not the Mississippi type, I'm interested in her being an adult and doing what she wants. If nothing else, trusted council, I'll take. Do well, young 'en!
Somehow, my blankity blank blank devil-blushing profanity hasn't shined at work, though I grumble it smiting my woes wrathfully. I was docked ... "you don't curse", remarking my once ... once, nasty curse. Actually, when I whisper my filth, I hate my job for bringing my sinister nature to the surface. I'd rather be the stuttering fool, unable to bring forth, "damn" let alone any other litany of sick slang lexicon, than to be the hurricane guttural spiteful "jackhole".

strategy
Iraq is suffering under the United States' new strategy of besieging them with lawyers. Armed with subpoenas, writs, claims, and tax forms, the insurgents have no hope but to submit to the paperwork. The weight of the paperwork is now roughly equivalent to ordinance dropped on Iraq.
The good news, while many may lose their lives in this noble cause, the US is improved by fewer lawyers.

Wile E. Coyote
I was lucky to have been allowed to sit with Wile E. for his discussion on how to capture the elusive Road Runner. Sadly, he was not successful during my stay with him, but he had the right gear. He showed me his accuracy with his weapon and with scope and binoculars he found many different prey beasts that he described with lip-smacking and mouth noises. I never did find out how he was a coyote with such phenomenal means -- able to buy equipment that I never knew existed.

I bought a battery for the car. The design of the engine compartment makes changing it, well ... not simple.
Hey, nutjobs! If you design it impossible, then free oil, battery or whatever, changes should come with it. I found out on the year previous, you had to remove a wheel to get to the battery. What company chair approved that design?

toupee or not toupee
I got a great rumor ... interesting, nonetheless, that someone at work has a "nice looking", realistic toupee, perhaps. There is no open confession of, "yes ... it's a toupee", but reactions and suspicions arise around a person and his toupee. I never noticed, but then again, I never cared. Toupees are make up for the follicle vain.

Moa & Nixon book
So far, the format is junk, but I'll stick with it for a while. It started with:
Abstract
Intro
Initialize
Begin
Well, the basics are for people who don't know -- sadly, not something I can easily skip through while listening. Communism, isolationism, idealogical differences, trade agreements. The purpose of the trip was clear, but I didn't know that it took three years of working to get to a point where Nixon could get there.

I was ... cough
wrong. Oh my, I wrote it! I was wrong. I will now write that Reagan was guilty in being human, having two weaknesses; trust in others -- even to his undoing, and in never firing someone, as he needed to do. Both of these are typical frailties of humans. I somewhat doubt that he was unaware of the contra deal, but with his delegation of tasks to others, it is not impossible. Therefore, I feel that history will and should look favorably upon his presidency. Damn my persistence!

He believes that marriage is a union between one man and one woman. check
He believes we should not use money for illegal immigrants. check
He believes we should better protect veterans and families for their services, sacrifices. check
Huh ... no doubt, he asks for input, holds stances that are mostly inarguable, how could I go wrong? He's always had my vote. Thanks Mike!

Am I fearful?
I don't fear others ... I fear myself, what I could be, what I can do.
I might be the sword in the stone -- the symbol and weapon used so that others may "rightfully" rule. I may also be the beast of the apocalypse, who directs people to a false god, the anti-Christ, thereby damning them. Really, I fear the damage I can do as a person. I could do good (not to be confused with well), but my capacity for evil is as equal to my surrender to my human weaknesses, which are many.

Shake it up
Well, there is a shortage of managers, can you believe it? That means that a couple are moved around and I stand a good chance of being pushed through to the next level, on basis of ability and need. Well, now, that's ok. That's God's will! God also has protected me from speeding tickets. I was speeding --- not excessively, right past a state trooper, but the trooper pulled over the pick-up truck next to me who wasn't going as fast. Perhaps that driver did something that I didn't see.
I have been able to position people in different areas so that they expand their repetoire being good for them and good for me. The more polished skills they have, the more flexible they are. The sad thing is, I don't have any hours to train anyone in particular areas.

Constitutional appeasement
It's still,"the people, right, ", let's read it... "in order to form a more perfect union of confederate states". It's got liberty, peace, and finite powers to each branch. I know and believe in the checks and balances of the system making no branch superior. There is, however, no disclosure clause nor an abatement to branches unionizing through understood camaraderie for the purposes of power usurpation and retention.

part deux, Durden
I am waiting to find the wall of people I have "killed" or saved by re-instilling a will to live and excel, forcing them to live in fear of reprisal if they do not fulfill their lifelong dream of becoming ... physicist or business owner, or what have you. My Tyler, not selling fat, certainly has a lot better "other life" than me, perhaps the drunkard me, adept at playing at the frailties of women who fall for my wiles is him -- Tyler, a bastard creation of my half-conscious self. Be it male proclivity or mere, over-sexed male tendencies, I hope the insidious me is limited to consensual sex, not expanding to desperate measures linked to my semi-revolutionary and socialist ideologies.+
not a communist, but rather a socialist reformer, international growth with domestic ownership, far apart from 3% conglomerate of the whole nation. I favor competitive nationalism over elitism through corporate dominion and offshore protection (security) as we have now.
In my vanity, I hope I have inadvertently or overtly saved people, whether they ever knew me or not. Not every Superman wears an "S" on his chest.

There was the years of "Why, that's my penis" jokes. That was followed by, "I know what [name] is thinking ..."

stressful days
I was at my wits end ... couldn't vent, turned it inward and grew despondent. Now, I just want to vent ... so, I'm going to find a violent online game and play it for venting.
Mum's in hospital, moved to another room, won't leave for another day or two. No visit she has made has ever been short. She's in no danger, thankfully, but there is a chance of heavy bleeding from an outpatient surgery. There are other stressors, but work doesn't alleviate the stress.

V-Day, remembered
I listened to audiobook, "Vagina Monologues". Due to its content, it is not for everyone. From a man's perspective, it was interesting, especially if you through in the psychological perspective. It is not as "helpful" as I would have thought, though it is theraputic many. Any woman who has "issues", especially in self-doubt, expression, or has suffered a smashing of herself at the force or corruption from others, ought to listen to this presentation.
-- the sickness and depravity of FGM (female genital mutilation) is not made as crystal clear as it should be. Especially true is the cold, hard fact that often the facilitators in the non-surgical butchery are often female family members. Talk about a mind **ck! Your mom holding you down to suffer pain and misery and to deny you sexual pleasure, and likely infection and premature malignancies and death. Great!
From the series, I'm rather like Bob, though I doubt that I'd stare for a whole hour, but would rather invite her to accept that she is beautiful and that she, a whole, cannot but "separated" as it were from her vagina.
If there were the corollary, I'd note that my member would wear spelunking gear (perhaps casual jeans and sweatshirt) and would (in two words) declare,
"back again" or "you're supercalafragalisticexpialladocious"

save the humor, he's just plain jerk
guy at work ... unfailing jerk. His abilities are like Superman's, far beyond those of mere human mortals. He is the Jerk, some putz in command, or rather with title, only wishing he had real command. Imagine, if you will, a 14-year old with adolescent lust, yet virginal. Picture a chronological adult with such stupidity, limitations and "passions", and you have this putz. He's all that without the humor. This person makes work much more intolerable. What's worse, this plucky duck holds a higher position.
