Blog Master General

I'm not the blog master general! Well, you ought to have that title! I gave up reading your blog ages ago. If I were to try to read it, which I don't, I would have to take up speed reading, for there are tens of entries daily.

Yes, yes, yes. If I had a job, I'd blog less. So, if you know of a job that pays okay, let me know and I'll blog less, work more and be happier all around. Thank you,
please remit 42 cents for mailng US snail mail.

I saw the movies Birds and wonder if the wretched things are playing out that movie now. They are wacky crack funky with slamming into windows. Hey -- birdie -- there isn't a sky in here. I would estimate around twelve hits a day on the window -- around the number of hits my blog gets. Birds and the blogs -- irony.

Dear K.,

I hope that this larger firm pays for relocation or compensates you for your move of faith! I'm sure you took it knowing the changes. It'll be sad to see you four (your doggy too) moving farther. I don't know anything about where you're heading, only -- that it is NO CHICAGO. You might have some better travel though.

I sent your webpage to my brother-in-law, who's a department chair for AUTOCAD, AUTODESK (etc.) classes and training at IVY TECH (South Bend). Hopeefully, his students see your work, and listen to your podcasts.

Cerpicio gets me to laugh

Yesterday, I got a call from Cerpicio and it started with a job tip for me, as I'm still looking for a job. It concluded with [drum roll please], "What are you doing on the 26th? You see, we're moving and, uh ..."

It therefore makes my year complete ... helping at least three different people/families move. For the last four years, I have helped at least three people/families move each year -- not always the same families. It appears to be as constant as the seasons.

Thanks Cerpicio for the great laugh and I'll be there to help you, your wife, and your cats move. BTW: MR called me on Monday and asked me directions on how to do a driveby on your house. He drove by and viola! He saw the present homeowners there. I hope there isn't a CQuin incident there.

Very, very disturbing scenes from TV

It starts out tame and gets wicked. I don't watch a lot of TV and I dare say that I wouldn't let children in my care watch much of it either. Deplorable. America should just turn off the TV. Now, if this were on pay channels -- not that it would matter, but if they were, perhaps it would make sense.

Stand up, turn off, go read books!

Dear Annie: I would like to comment on the letter from "Jane Smith" regarding unusual names.

I am a teacher and have had classes with a Napoleon and a Wolfgang, and I would like to tell parents who are considering an unusual baby name to try it out first. When meeting new people, introduce yourself with the name you are considering for your child and see the response.

There have been children in my class who have not raised their hands because they were embarrassed to hear their names called. Children can tease and make fun of the most common name. An unusual one truly invites a lifetime of grief. I know because I also have an unusual first name and have experienced these feelings for 58 years. -- M.

Dear M.: Thanks for the firsthand testimonial. Parents who are considering unusual names ought to follow your suggestion.

I don't read it, but this one was mentioned to me by my father. It is true.

4 pounds and 60 decibels

There is a neighbor dog who is especially cute, sweet and lovable. You'll know when he's out with the squeals. It's akin to the sound of an RC airplane in a not-so-monotomous tone. I was mowing today, and as per normal -- there he was. I petted him the best that I could but as high-strung as he is, he wouldn't sit still. I don't think I could get that ratio from speakers, and not so loving.

Constitutionally Gay

I looked through some old flickr pics and found one guy marked a nativity picture as a favorite. I looked through his pictures and he had loads from a Catholic demonstration or was it? There were many, many, many supporting "Equality". Equality for what, one might ask. I thought -- for what, gays? Yes, there was a group for gays -- marriage. There were Catholics in the mix supporting gay marriage, however that works.
Also there was "Jewish Community Supports Catholic Gay marriage". I bet they do. You see, the new slogan is, "Just f*** 'm!" Ultimately there will be fewer catholics, as there are more non-procreative parishoners. That's an ingenious plan! I don't know the state or city. The photographer's perspective was unclear, but the rally did give me one thing -- material for jokes.

Uh, isn't that supposed to be "love your brother and fellow man?" Yeah, love or (rhymes with duck) him, what's the difference?
We want a constiutional ammendment to declare that we're gay! Okay, you're gay [in writing].

Are there enough keywords there? "Job, money, sex, drugs ... billions, trillions." I wonder if there is a limit to the number of keywords you can use. If you use that many keywords to get people to find you, uh ... you really aren't specific and I would venture that it isn't a job that I'd want.

trends

I posted many pics on flickr. It's funny. I posted Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. scenes from his "I have a dream" speech and I get no views. I put "bulge" in response to a very old humorous British window washer commercial, 1 view. I use the word, "breasts" concerning a video where a woman is suddenly aware of the viewers' attention on her breasts, and pow -- more views. I wonder if I used other terminology for them.

I think it underscores stats ... sex sells -- women's anatomy sells better, faster, more frequently. To deny this is to lie to one's self. I should have named my blog something like that to draw lots of hits.

BTW: "cute" doesn't garner any more hits than "sweet"
"breasts" (or the equivilent), "money", [sexual terms], "chocolate" generate hits.

I also have nature pictures ... more common (public) photos of mine. "moss" got no hits but lady cardinal got views. So do "hot" topics like Hezbollah and Hassan pics. An earlier blog I mentioned supporters, well beyond the southern Lebanon area.

Man, oh, man!

I am so happy with the new form, sir. You don't know how long I spent with a long-winded spiel about why John Doe doesn't get the job or why Jane Doe can't be a part of our great team. The new form letter, "F*ing No!" is so refreshing. I put in the name at the top, courtesy of MS Word and pow! It prints off thirty thousand. Better still ... I'm not mailing a blinking thing! I email those bits and sit back and peruse the internet for stuff. Thanks boss.

What about the recipients? Oh, I guess the "F*ing NO!" should be simply ... "No, not at this time ---



loser!"

I got one with a stationary, watermark circled "L". What does that mean?

Just say no

I keep seeing this or a link to it in job searches. "Go Army". How about go away army! I still fall under the extended enlistment age of 42; for those bowflex users and I'm still not biting. Now, if I were a tactiction* and was guaranteed real benefits, I might consider it -- for seconds. I don't want to join army, navy, air force, marines even though it's a great place to start. I don't want to join the National Guard and defend my life --- oh, I mean the border ... of Syria, Jordan ... or the US, maybe.

Language

Firefox Lingo, my foot! Firefox B-ling -as are having all yor baasses. It's still in the crawling stage, beyond infant but still at todler stage. The syntax is terrible, making reading like driving on the grooved shoulder (bumps every 0.3 seconds reminding you to slow). Sometime soon, it will be more accurate, having a larger base of euphemisms and phrases. I saw a referring page to one of my blogs was from Sweden. Her blog was a sad one, with reflections of a passed loved one.

Hezbollah has a following

Israel sends bombs to southern Lebanon and Hezbollah sends out the word of the evils of Israel. I cannot believe at the following this group has. I'd say a group that killed 240 some Marines in '83, and will never stop attacking the military of Israel (as they have claimed), isn't a group I could support. The leader, cleric Sheik Hanssan Nasrallah has said that he isn't interested in a war with the US. I don't think that he can see the relationship between Israel and the US. I really don't see the US siding with too many fundamentalist Muslim groups or nations.


I can understand him having a following in Lebanon, but in other nations -- a wonder. As I was looking at flickr, a woman had pictures pro Nasrallah and against Israel. Now, I know that it's very unlikely, given her name and that she's posting on the internet that she's from southern Lebanon. I can just see her typing away, if covered, her messages on how evil Israel is, from a bombed-out building. Oh, wait ... no. She's probably in the West, away from the fighting.

Hey, make a stand for them -- join them in southern Lebanon. I personally think that she should be a part of that. Be a real groupee.

I did see on MSNBC that Hezbollah and bin Laden supposedly don't share some ideals and are from different groups, Sunni and Shiate. If that is so, and they have a tear war between the two, that would be excellent, but not for the citizens. I think, however, it might show the lunacy in their warfare in that civilians and children are preferred targets with missiles, as the military can be taken down with other methods.

Another thing I find amazing is why the media had to tell people why children make "great" targets. Obviously when killed, they end a generation, are smaller (weaker), and it demoralizes the enemy. That works only on small scales. If that group were to try that in America ... I think the US would evacuate everyone from Israel. Yep -- you all can have that place, for the next 500,000 years. You won it! [missiles in the air] Go ahead. Take it!

The US would not back down on targeting children. Hell! I'd break into installations and fire the nukes myself. Israel has an edge. While Syria has clearly sided with Hezbollah -- selling them weapons and providing shelter to terrorists; clearly they have to obtain them from somewhere, like Iran. If Iraq goes postal (civil war eminant), getting weapons through might be easy or impossible. Also, the US could snipe the convoys without suspicion.

I'm not a supporter of civilian killing, but I can't fault Israel from defending itself again as it will always have to do while it is surrounded by groups wanting to kill it. I still maintain that Israel, for whatever arguments people make against them, had a fairly peaceful area with Jews, Christians and Muslims alike. Name a Muslim area or nation with Christians -- Jews. That's right, you can't! I cannot side with groups who kill non-Muslims.

hull breech

I was painting again. It seems to be my lot in life. I finished and when I was cleaning out brushes and trays, the outside well (not where one gets water) was filled with paint water and plant materials. Because of the materials -- the water went nowhere. I thought that it would eventually drain and went in to wash my hands then shower. I went to the basement (opposite side of well) and the paint water had crept in, along the floor (under the joining door to the outside). I dropped scrap towels to hold back what could have been a flood. I went outside and bailed the excess water from the well. After the well was 5 mm filled with water, very safe, I returned to clean up the mess.

It had crept under a storage cabinet, thankfully plastic and easier to move. It also went under the clothes washer, so I had to move it and clean the mess there. Yikes! It had been a while seen I had pulled back the cabinet and the washer. Goo, eww ... and gross! Suffice to say that the energy I had for the second coat of paint today, was spent on the water disaster. I am spent.

The good news is that God was looking out for me, in that it rained heavily in the afternoon and the plugged well would have been an issue, perhaps. Thanks God!

Do they normally catch on fire like that?

What are jwomen?

Party of God? God doesn't use Ak-47s.
Realistically, if you claim allegiance to God, while firing a gun -- you are lost and have rejected God. God is Love, not hate, killing. Persoanlly, I think this is very telling of what Hezbollah really is -- slayers, hate-filled slayers. To believe that they aren't terrorists is ... naive!

Perhaps there's a hidden message in the flag that I'm missing about peace, love, or compassion. The group assists its fellows with health and in other ways, but "killing in the name of God"? Where was that in the text?

false forest footsteps

On the peripherial of the meadow, edging toward the forest, undergrowth eiks out an existence, protected -- given sunlight be virtue of the meadow. Approaching this, with camera in hand, I'm asailed with mosquitos on a misson of blood, successful for many. I'm deafened a bit from the buzzing, the vile critters entering my ear, yet I hear a peculiar sound. The rustling I hear is right in front of me. I stand silent, looking.
I hear it then to me left, then to my right. It sounds 5 - 8 yards away (~ 10 meters). I can't smell the thing. It's a person, right? The person or persons aren't talking and they don't seem to be getting closer. I'm at a loss as to what's happening. I'm so wrapped up in it, I couldn't hear anything else -- not even the incessant mosquitoes. Are the trees moving ... no. Their trunks are righted and the wind isn't moving the branches. What then is the noise?

I see leaves move. There is an imaginary line of bent leaf, then bent leaf, bent leaf... something fell. I look again, another, odder path, but branches, limbs and leaves are struck. Something's dropping. I don't know ... acorns? No. They are buckeyes being picked apart, pieces being chiselled away by the tens of squirrels in the trees. Flakes strike leaves making false footsteps.

I know this, because I stood under a tree with a group of squirrels doing this, where the flakes rained down on me. The ground around the tree, becoming green and yellow from the inedible/untasty parts of the buckeyes, in favor of the nut and the meat of it's center. A forest isn't haunted -- only your mind.

screamers & streamers

10:30 was the right time to go through the streets anouncing swim-team victory this year.  What's special about that time?  I suppose that most people are awake and that others are at church.  It was, nontheless, startling to hear horns and cheers in this ten vehicle convoy including rented trolleys.  The city, where I live doesn't have real trolleys, but the appearance of them on truck frames -- rentable.
 
To their credit, they normally finish in the top 5, more reguarly in the top 3 and apparently the top team this year.  As a testiment to their being here, a lei or boa lies in the street, green, joyless, lifeless -- having been and touched.
 
I won't scream, but it's great that they won again.  They don't check for steroids, but I think that isn't a concern.  Way to go!  Also, thanks for not starting it at 7:00 this morning as I rested poorly last night.

fox and the hound

While driving back from friend, MR's house, I saw a flash, short, long, dark, fast -- the fox.  I have never seen a wild fox except for this little glimpse in the headlights.  There is no fox hunting season in Indiana, thankfully, and in urban sprawl areas, it would be very unlikely to see one.
 
The hound, as she played the role was ever so playful, until MR mentioned trimming her tail, where the flag of a tail folded down under the weight of the news.  Hound, she's not, but cananie, certainly.

Kiss?



McLaughlin group debated, "Evidently, low approval ratings can be contracted through saliva."

What in the world were each of them thinking? I really doubt it was a kiss, but that was all kind of bad timing! Whatever it was, it is now and forever a kiss. It was a bad call. Left only with the dismal "what is the definition of 'is'".

The statement whispered to him should have been, "this isn't a good idea."

Israel

It hasn't changed really, just the ebb and flow of violence.
Iran calls death to Israel. Oh ... so, there was a time when they didn't declare this? That's much like declaring death to America. It's breakfast there. Have another bowl of hate. Do not question. Kill when not in adherance to the written and unwritten laws and rules according to the "religion". McLaughlin Group covered the Israel situation, but concluded nothing -- like anyone's point of view matters pragmaticly to those suffering it.

You cannot escape your destiny. Fate is what I make ... yadda yadda yadda.
Some of my life sticks to the roof of my mouth -- can be difficult to remove; regardless, I plunge (d) into it with vigor.

wound that would not heal

Mother has an August 24th surgery appointment.  Mother complained about a leg injury that hasn't successfully healed for 3 years.  Nice -- a nurse who doesn't check into it.  Against her will, Father took her to the doc.
According to the doctor, they need to take a biopsy to verfiy his suspicions that it's pre-cancerous.  Since an incision might bring on an infection, he suggested that she not take this action now, so close to surgery.  Some more about which to worry.
 
Today was a long one.  Mom is sore, Father is plain bushed.  The news isn't good.  Welcome to the weekend.
In lighter news, my sister and her family are supposed to take a mini-vacation to lovely Monticello, Indiana for a day at Indiana Beach (large, long lake with rides, etc.)
 
Another sister, her husband, and their canine companions Samson and Argos are due to come up this weekend.  It should be fun, much more fun than the drive, wait, bad news.

Intolerable cruelty

the movie -- anything that is plotless.  If it smells like a bum -- more than a butt, bum -- six weeks unbathed, crappy (literally) clothes, pissy (literally) attitude, coupled with ignorance, meshed with urbanlect.
 
If it has Keanu Reeves -- let it, like superman drink itself to death before making it to the big screen.
If it has Kevin Costner, let it die in perilous WWIII like Postman
If it has a gay gay gay gay gay ... let it river dance its way out of the theater
and if it panders to 5% of the population -- let it remain a "direct to DVD" special.
 
I don't like the intolerable cruelty producers are inflicting on the public with crap, crap with flowers, computer generated crap, 3-D crap, and big-sonofagun's crap.  How about honest to goodness -- good stuuf.  "Door to Door" while not fantastic, by most people's measures, was good, albeit slow.  I like William H. Macy and Kyra Sedgewick (Bacon).  The movie, based on ture events, was "heartwarming" as announced.  Sappy, but good.  Take CSI, please!  Ship that stinker off like Jersey pollution.
 
Try the novel approach, something that friggin' matters or dumb funny stuff without the narration.  America's Funniest Home Videos would be number one spot if they dropped the moronic narration.  Get it?  Animal Planet's animal videos would be number 1 or 2 without the schmuck commentary.  Why add the stuff, when the majority of persons either tune out or mute it?
 
Spike has Japanese TV game show.  It is terrible with Ed, Edd, & Eddy narrating.  Just can the narration and roll that lovely bean footage.

Moreover the shocking revaltion of his ethnicity, is the telling stupidity of generalized followers of anything. Blinded by preferred ignorance, drones follow tedious tasks for the goal of the hive-mentality.

Okay, here's a list of leads.

--reading the list--
Howard Beaver, Clayton Beaver, Harry Beaver ... DAM IT! I thought selling snarfblatts to nerherders was tough, this will be impossible!

Shit her

even that would be painful. Look, can't you see it's the last act of a desperate exhibitionist?

I don't care if it's the last act of Henry the VIII, I'm leaving!

My suggestion is ... get backstage to be the prop person and make sure that she dies for art -- really, suffering and all. I don't like her and haven't liked her. She has been the face of Christianity, when it suited their purpose, now, she's doing a mock crucifiction. I'd suggest it be her last concert. Now, I'd do it on just principle -- in that I don't like her, but ...
now I'd be revered by Muslims, Jews, and Christians alike. I killed that -- thing, called Madonna.

I could even have either Robert England to jump onto stage to finish the act, or have a Hellraiser moment, when some super-graphic masochistic fatality. "We have such sights to show you!"

Better still, don't go and let the empty place pull in no money, leaving the "star" to fade away.

"Like a victim; hey! Killed for the very first time. Like a vi-i-ic-tim, bleeding and then dying."

Vote for this Republican (if you're in Indana)

He is, by far, either in league with the most earnest people, or he, himself is so earnest. For this man, I always cast my vote. Mike Ripley, Indiana house 79. I may not be the most credible source for voting tips, but he's reliable.

Thanks Mike!

interview short

The ramshackle place -- okay, roughly assembled place is next to a cemetary. Their external signs are absent and it's in a poorer section of town. Surprising, I see big names (in semi-expensive) signs along the wall. The reek of new carpet abounds in the place. My interview was short; likely depicting my chances of obtaining my job preference (if any job) with that company. The store next to them sold headstones -- for the resting place of dead-end jobs and job attempts.

It was, however, an interview.

Rick James after the slap


Rick James after the slap
Originally uploaded by MDH, II.
left in wonder why he was slapped by good friend, "Darkness" Charlie Murphy. "But that was weeks ago."

"Cocaine's a hell of a drug", Rick James confesses. If you ever want a reason not to do cocaine, watch Charlie Murphy true Hollywood storeis from Dave Chappelle. Candid display of degraded intellect from drug use.
....
In this scene, he was flying high, but generally happy. I'd like to think that if I iwere bartending, that I would, not be high-but exceeding happy mostly. Having to finally deal with the fifraf that came and stayed would weigh down on me. Ultimately, I would either surrender to alcohol or much more wisely, quit.

"Com on Dave, give me a break."

What's the big news?

I went to Indy Star newspaper and found this!

I don't doubt the need to see a boy drenched with refreshing cold water, but the top news is 3 shot dead. How does it relate?

As bad as it gets?

Hugh Jackman (Van Helsing, Wolverine) in Oaklahoma
Renaissance actor Hugh Jackman proves he's more than just a pretty face (or a superhero, for that matter) in this impressive turn as Curly in the National Theatre's production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Oklahoma!" Jackman, accompanied by acclaimed thespians Maureen Lipman, Josefina Gabrielle and Shuler Hensley, sings the show's best hits, including "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning," "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top" and the title song.

I think that's as bright of an idea as casting Billy Crystal as the president in West Wing or Ellen Degeneres in Vanessa Williams: Untold Miss America story.

Gettin' flakey with it

Blogspot is getting less reliable. I tried much of this week to go and edit my posts, to no avail. What is the issue? It's just upsetting.

3, is a magic number +

I got a mess of spam yesterday, crud! Thankfully it was sitting in suspected spam folder, but golly! It's been pretty clear for a while. If you are ever in doubt, and don't have the ability to see the email account who's sending you the "supposed real email", then follow the rules:

if it is 1 KB or less -- kill it
Magic numbers are 2, 14, 26 KB. I kid you not. I was looking for trend and that is it! What is magical about the email size is a mystery, only that these numbers are generally the spam email sizes.

Tar & Feather him!

Buster Keaton with molasses and feathers, put on by Stan Hardy of Laurel & Hardy.

In this nation's history, there were calls to "tar and father him", which in the 19th (1800's) they sometimes did. More often, a crowd woutd act on the unwelcome guest and usher the guy out, doing a reverse crowd jump. Too many of these and you'd not be running for anything, the concept is understood.

Old slapstick, '30s. A one-of-a-kind pair. Another comparable pair were Jack Lemon and Walter Mathou. One dying six months after the other.
...
Back to tarring and feathering. There is much of congress and senate that would do well with tar and feathers, then run out of town like free-range chickens.

Jones soda? I'll just cover the camera with stomach acid, thank you!

What is it? What do you see?

It's the new psychological test.

Variations

This "was" James B., but these are my altered versions

James B., the spy who doesn't hear, "No!" He's never understood that type of protection.

She is wearing skimpy clothes, nearly topless, but his probing hands got stuck.

James B., Halitosis spy.

One cup of this a day

10" x 6", even one, isn't really moderation. I understand two glasses of wine daily, provides you with some valuable anti-oxidants.

She's got a ...

Thanks Jeffy! You do know she could hear you?
Jeffy, "She's got a mustache!" about a young girl at the drive through. Yeah, it's called hormones. Teen years are cruel on everyone.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to stop him, as he was in the backseat, his uncle -- my friend, was driving. I'm sure we got the "special" Arby sandwiches that day.
[whispered in the back of Arby's] "Hey ... did you throw out those dropped onion rings?
Yeah.
Well, get them for me.
But, I ...
Just get 'em!

Hey, isn't she the one who ...
was the error that I made, I chewed some shoe leather -- hence my need to replace them. This statement was made apart from the other one. My series of adults-only song lyrics and song titles really place me in a category by myself. No one else would stand close.

shoe shopping

I'm not that picky, except being able to walk through hallways and aisles without having to pardon myself through thick traffic . When I use the term "thick", I mean not only too many people, but thick and dense people. There were two thick persons in the way of shoe shopping.

They were non-too smart or gracious -- thick, and wore, probably 42" waist pants; thick! They were loud, and I was happy that when I shop -- I'm mission based, in that I have a plan, goal and I achieve that goal.

The "new shoe" smell will go away with greater use of them. peww!

employment depleted

I did a few marathon job listings readings. Now ... I read the "newest" and find 6 postings per day. If only I trained in medicine; pharmacology or nursing, I would never worry about find a job, but I might not like where I was. Anyway ... it's now simpler to read them. There so many for which I applied and others that have requirements that I don't have. Like an empty gun ... jobsearch engines depleted aren't a good thing.

Compliments of the house

Trash, on curb, bin, or in bags is still trash. The fact that it's free, doesn't magically convert it to something that it isn't. Congratulations, you have new crap! Free with thousands of more ads and shortcuts on your desktop that appear faster than old popups before popup blockers. Aqua Teen Hunger Force did an episode on that. What's old is new again, and AOL takes its subscribers to hell and they welcome it because it's free.

Happy Anniversary to the folks today

My father called today after Mom saw the doctor.  He has okayed the double knee replacement surgery.  It might be another month or so before it happens, but it was joyous news, none the less.
 
Today is their anniversary, so in celebration they are going out to a fancy-schmancy meal somewhere ... I was not given that info.
 
My sister sent me an electronic (e-card, via hallmark) for the folks.  Laptops are great, as I can tote that bad boy around and show them -- hey!  Here's your romance card, c/o my little (but older) sister.
