- World Logic Day 2024
-
One of my favorite television and movie characters was LCDR Data of Star Trek the Next Generation. I was enamoured with his consumate scientific professional stance and flawless logic in all matters.
Logic is a system or set of principles underlying the arrangements of elements in a situation or experience or even within a computer or other electronic device whereby the steps are layed out to perform a set task.
It involves thought, reasoning, deduction and other aspects of intelligence to come to the adequate conclusion of the goal.
I have always been a stickler for logic and science in my life and this is why I reject the notion of transsexauals and their contention that men may be women and women may be men. They try to rationalize that genetics mean nothing only their subjective "feelings" matter. This is simply not the case.
These poofs should be eliminated from the planet as the mentally and morally defectives they are.
Today is World Logic Day. Having been first formed by the Logica Universalis Association (LUA) and initially observed on January 14, 2019. Now, it is a function of the United Nations whereby you may be fooled to forget that their ultimate goal is to kill you and take your property. They want to rule you with any iron fist they care to don and they do not want you to have any recourse or say so in the matter.
Be stupid. Support the United Nations like the idiot transsexuals and other woke are and allow them to Agenda 2030 you out of existence and place that which you own into their coffers to do with as they please as you fertilize their restricted area conquests dead and buried beneath the confiscated soil of your country.

- Make Your Dream Come True Day 2024
-
At one time or another most of us have dreams. Some of us are careful not to make these dreams too lofty as to be unattainable. Others, like myself crash and burn.
Back in the day I had dreams of becoming a radiologist and working special procedures somewhere in that great wilderness which comprised all I knew at that point.
Later I found that I really didn't have the requisite desire for all the post graduate education. This was after many years of long hours spent in pursuit of the dream. Subsequently I let those career aims go for something I already was doing: computer programming, cable building, and hardware repair.
So while others attained that to which I had only aspired briefly I was still left doing that which so many others were unable to do despite years of post graduate education — which like my attempt was to no avail.
I recall a job interview where I was the only applicant lacking a PhD. The interview had a lab practicum skill test whereby we had one hour to set up a working 12 node network with printer, email server, web server, and correctly set up active directory central store.
As it turns out the only successful candidate in this group was my expert setup and I was appointed to the job. Upon finding out they lost out to someone without a degree there was intense ruckus and whining about the fact that they had the requisite education whereby I did not. The committee who made the assignment simply stated"Yes, but he has demonstrated beyond a shadow of a doubt that he can do the work whereas you have not."
So there you have it. I didn't attain my dream but I did have a 'Plan B' which turned out to be quite the satisfactory career now that it's over.
The moral of the story is that despite what all too many stupid HR wenches may claim are qualifications the indoctrinations from colleges and universities called degrees aren't worth the paper upon which they are printed and that your dream job may surely turn out to be 'Plan B'. There's a lot to be said for having an alternate route when it comes to career paths and earnings.
C'est la vie.
Today is Make Your Dream Come True Day. There is not much documented regarding it except that it is today. I say "go for it" but have the fortitude to pick the low hanging fruit instead should it become advantagous. In my particular case it made all the difference between the success I enjoyed and that failure which could have been my fate.

- Work Harder Day 2023
-
There was a time immediately following my hitch in the Navy that I wanted to do my utmost in all tasks. This attitude took a beating when I went to Nassau Recycle Corporation in Gaston South Carolina which was an island of meaningless desolation where each and every other employee in my midst was out to do as little as humanly possible then collect that paycheck.
So I discarded my desire for excellence in the workplace ... given that the rude yankee leadership of the joint was simply out to completely pollute the area ground water with lead and other heavy metals. I was glad to see the place forced to shutdown and return to New York with all the other rude yankees they employ to become that pollution municipal lawsuit riddled superfund mess it presently remains to this day.
Today is Work Harder Day.
It is a January 12th observance said to originate in 2016 which is meant to inspire people to work harder.
So those limitations inherent to the poor trash employees of Gaston's Nassau Recycle Corporation likely cannot stand up to the tenets of this day despite that diaspora following the break up of the local Nassau Recycle center of pollution entity.
I am retired and therefore unlikely to work harder today. I'm just glad the rude yankee management of Nassau Recycle Corporation and their simpleton hick abomination servants got told to go away in no uncertain terms.
Happy Work Harder Day ... if you have what it takes.

- Learn Your Name in Morse Code Day 2023
-
January 11 brings us National Learn Your Name in Morse Code Day. It is a day to visit the world of telecommunications consisting of encoded messages consisting of dits and dahs, i.e., dashes and dots.
The primary hardware used for this process is called a "Morse Key" and is used for communication either to or from the operator. The evolution of the methodology has brought a full range of character sets into use.
Nowadays, it is primarily the purview of ham radio operators is amateur and ham radio operators.
I never really delved into the realm of Morse Code being a product of the digital age.
This analog technology was outdated prior to my arrival on the technology scene.
I dare say Morse Code remains useful given situations where it is warranted and I would never belittle anyone who wanted to learn it.
When China hits us with that big EMP they're planning and kills every computer in the United States because of the weak leadership inspired by the criminal democrat thugs in our midst you will be glad to have something else upon which to fall back.
Something which cannot be taken out quite so easily.
Happy Learn Your Name in Morse Code Day.

- National Save the Eagles Day 2024
-
Of all the birds I've ever witnessed in the wild the Bald Eagle is the most majestic. Something about the yellow beak and eyes contrasted with the white head and brown to black body is very appealing to me personally.
Today is National Save the Eagles Day. It happens on January 10 since January 10, 2015 under the auspices of the Bergen County Audubon Society in an effort raise awareness about eagles and conservation efforts to prevent extinction.
The Endangered Species Act among other governmental instruments attempts to protect these animals and have helped the Bald Eagle to increase it's numbers.
I hope you will take a moment and become inspired to act on their behalf whenever and where ever you can.
People are not the only ones who call our world home.

- National Word Nerd Day 2024
-
My best ole ex friend the late Charlie Paschal once said that I was a "wordsmith". One who has an ability to phrase meaningful sentences in unique ways.
Today is National Word Nerd Day. It is said to be a January 9th observance to emphasize the importance of language in culture as they pertain to phraseology and communication.
Words have importance to civilization and historical representations of fact.
This is why the transsexuals, other woke idiots and BLM want to change history. They don't know what the real historical facts are and therefore seek to "educate" every one else with their false notions and misrepresentations.
Luckily enough of us who understand that the lessons of history must be repeated in the face of erroneous factual presentation exists to quash these attempts by the left to stupify the entirety of the masses at every turn.
I didn't make the trans, woke, and BLM stupid. They repeatedly go out of their way to express just how stupid they are however with their never ending falsehoods and selfish psychobabble presented as a replacement for rational thought where there is none.
Understanding words allows you to bone up on the facts so you are not led astray as ALL TOO MANY have been of late. I'm glad the genZ people seem to be straightening out for themselves.
Happy National Word Nerd Day.

- National Clean Your Desk Day 2024
-
Maintaining a clean desk has escaped me over the years. It seems that it's not enough that clutter is the sign of a genius, but grime and fingerprints likewise are part of the mix. I have been cohorts with neatnicks who put me to shame. I have also been in the presence of those whom I put to shame.
Today is National Clean Off Your Desk Day. It is observed on the second Monday of January annually and was the idea of one Anne Moeller of Clio, Michigan. It is thought that the day may have beginnings in some wayard new years resolution gone astray.
Regardless, it's time to whip out the damp rags and furniture polish if necessary and put some elbow grease into that item which supports your work environment. Eliminate those dust bunnies if you can ...
A mess on your desk may be inefficient and inviting of chaos, but there are all too many of us who go there, including yours truly. I'm afraid that aesthetically pleasing desks do not really affect my motivation — nor productivity levels at all. Some of us are just slobs at heart I guess.
Just let it be known that I sometimes do get all medeval on messiness and whip things into immaculate shape on intermittent occasions.

- National Bobblehead Day 2024
-
I collect a few bobbleheads here and there.
I have Beavis and Butt-Head, Dexter, and Amy Farrah Fowler among my collection.
I am also presently coveting the Trumpinator bobblehead — because he is my candidate for POTUS due to the election stolen by the criminal democrats and Biden Administration.
Today is National Bobblehead Day.
It is a January 7th observance designed to recognized those immortalized in the bobblehead genre.
I deeply enjoy the notion of bobbleheads and collecting those who represent significant individuals in my life. This includes characters and personalities that I find humorous, awe inspiring, or otherwise interesting.
Needless to say I will never own a crook Joe Biden nor liar Dick Durbin or Todd Rutherford bobblehead.
The racist whiners Cornell West and Al Sharpton can pretty much forget it as well.
I only hope I get to attend each of their funerals some day to ridicule them as they go down for the dirt nap.
Happy National Bobblehead Day.

- National Cuddle Day 2024
-
So once upon a time I would hold a paramour close in my arms to express either my love or affection. Yes, I was quite the cuddler back in the day.
Those days are long gone given the career path I chose and the travel it entailed. I was never one to pick up some bar fly with whom to become close so I pretty much tapered out of the coupling life relatively early.
So today we have National Cuddle Day. It is observed each January 6 and the typical cold weather provides impetus to cuddle up and get close.
The ambiance of amenities such as fire places and such add to such possibilities.
However, you do need a partner if you're going to cuddle and they are not always available.
These days I don't really seek companionship because the loner life took hold some years back. However, if you are equipped and ready I hope you'll take full advantage of National Cuddle Day.

- National Bird Day 2024

Another National Bird Day is upon us. I try to celebrate the day because I think birds are important. These descendants of the dinosaurs remain with us despite overwhelming odds against survival and they add to the world with their colorful plumage and song.
They are a large group of animals suffering various threats to include illegal pet trade, disease, loss of habitat, and the ignorance of all to many humans who take them for granted.
I have just one issue with birds in general and that has to do with my truck and their propensity for eliminating waste products upon it.
However, in my never ending attempt not to be petty I overlook these transgressions resulting in more business for the car wash over on Sunset Boulevard.
National Bird Day is observed each January 5 under the auspices of the Avian Welfare Coalition since 2002. It is meant to raise awareness of the difficulties of bird species and to raise public awareness of bird requirements for life.
Many birds are either endangered or protected and this is due to the encroachment of many upon them and they are keystone species which indicate the overall health of the environment.
I hope you can find the time to set out a little food in the form of fruits, nuts, suet, as well as millet and other grains for the birds in an effort to ensure their survival.

- World Hypnotism Day 2024
-
I don't know why but I cannot be hypnotized.
The proposed reasons for this situation do not resonate with me either. I have been on stages where the sweat was pouring off the performer who couldn't believe that I wasn't falling under his spell. Who knows ...
Today is World Hypnotism Day.
It is observed each January 4.
Those complexities which constitute hypnotism and the control said to be imparted upon the subject are certainly worth the consideration —
Suffice it to say one should not make claims which turn out to be unsubstantiated either.
I have no preconceived notions regarding the process nor do I fear the practioners or the 'Manchurian Candidate' portends of control by another.
It has just never been possible to date and the world is running out of time.
Suffice it to say that my senses are under control and I have a frank grasp on that reality I occupy.
If you ever want to try to hypnotize me I think it might be arranged.
Happy World Hypnotism Day.

- Festival of Sleep Day 2024
-
I am quite easily engaged in sleep anymore. All I have to do is retire and I awaken sometime later after some lively REM engagement.
I think it all stems from my early start on the third shift when I began working after I dropped out of college. For years I engaged the eleven pm to seven am workaday world with Sargeant Hampton and the others of the Richland Emergency Room back in the early 1970s. Later I became engrained in the standard daytime work from my hitch in the Navy onward. Then I found myself teaching college for the next 20 years. Go figure.
Today is Festival of Sleep Day. It is a January 3 construct which aims in letting you catch up on that sleep surrendered to the seasonal events otherwise. It's origins appear in the industrial organization of industrialist Henry Ford in 1926 back when he tried to structure the day of workers as if he owned them.
Regardless, there is a lot to be said for a good nights sleep. Some of us engage in naps in addition to our nightly 8 hours.
I hope you're rested and raring to go each and every day.
Happy Festival of Sleep Day

- Things I don't do on cell phones
-
There are a number of things I do not pursue on my cell phone, even though they purport to be safe and reliable. The most notable of these is ecommerce.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not crazy about ecommerce at my workstation either. I personally prefer brick and mortar stores to the likes of mf amazon or some other web based loser.
I decline to do ecommerce or any manner of financial endeavor on my cell phone because I simply do not trust the security nor the mechanisms of recovery or those guarantees of adequate bandwidth and signal.
Take my stupid bank. These morons force two factor authentication on me (as though it's not running me off) and they send their codes over SMS (texting) modality even though the security here is grossly lacking.
I think that their IT department exists to service the old biddies on Whiskey Road because they sure don't exhibt anything valuable in the way of computer skills or recommendations.
But I digress. Just bear in mind that I have had fraud issues with ecommerce and this alone has caused me to shun it like the proverbial red headed stepchild to the point that I decline to go there BUT I don't hold it against you if you care to indulge.
In these days of evil dirtbags like Alphabet, Google, Facebook, Target and Walmart who are without both technical merit and trustworthiness I would be foolhardy to allow them to participate in more of my life that I consider safe to share.
Ecommerce is not one of those things I share with just anybody. I have a couple of new vendors who I have banned for their utter incompetence already in the new year. I set high standards but indeed make all attempts to meet those standards for myself. I wasn't always so integrity conscious in my business dealings.
In the presence of dullard democrat influences pervading the nation, America has gone downhill in the fight for integrity and I do not care to be subjected to this frank lack of worthiness which has rubbed off from the democrats to the idiots they attract in the marketplace.
