These are perilous financial times. The idiotic democrat president thinks he is going to control your bank accounts via central bank digital currency. Fortunately he is as stupid as he is ugly.

It's as if he and his party don't think us capable of thinking for ourselves and that we don't see how things are shaping up. As if allowing a pervert and his tranny "wife" to be elected to the White House weren't obamanations enough ...

Democrats think they may follow the nazi lead of Klaus Schwab and have their sinister way with the population. Good luck with that crass criminal unthinkinng morons. Your legacy will be that prosecution for which you're ALL headed. Your political party is morally bankrupt and headed for total oblivion by we who will not tolerate your illegal attempts to control the taxpayer.

Today is National Financial Awareness Day.

It's a day to ponder those ramifications of financial independence and make efforts to achieve that goal.

Savings comes before spending and you need to be aware of what your underhanded government is attempting to do to you. I used to have financial difficulties and then I started living within my means. I found that what I did tommorrow depended on what I did today. Sound financial principles can only lead to success in life.

Though I was a late bloomer in the world of finance I came around nicely.

Happy National Financial Awareness Day.
 

I like to partake of a little melon now and then.

Lately we've been hitting the watermelons pretty hard because they are particularly ripe and flavorful.

The moisture laden fiber they impart to our digestive systems are an added benefit.

The aroma and taste and texture are the big draw, however.

Today is Melon Day.

The day originates in the central asian country of Turkmenistan under the auspices of one Saparmurat Niyazov, first president of the country.

They have developed some 400 varieties of melons for the rest of the world to enjoy.

It transpires on the second Sunday of August. That would place it at August 13 this year.

So it is a day to partake of the melons of your choice and I like to note the varieties and their differences even among those which are similar genetically.

Happy Melon Day to you !

We have a number of visiting cats daily.

They come for the half-and-half my mother pours into a dish on her porch. I have counted 4 different animals to date and expect others to eventually find her porch and frequent it as well.

Today is International Cat Day. It is meant to celebrate the feline companion animal which has been a pet of man since ancient times.

They were even worshipped as gods in Egypt.

It is said that cats are independent, adventurous, inquisitive, have a set of amazingly expressive facial features — as well as the power to heal by themselves — usually.

Cats are carnivores. They eat meat as a preference. They are typically small furry mammals but some species do grow to be quite large.

Since August 3, 2020 International Cat Care are the leading cat welfare charity and they became responsible for International Cat Day. Since 1958, they have challenged cruelty, ignorance, and misunderstanding in an effort to improve the existence of cats. It is estimated that there are 600 million cats upon the Earth and that half of these are thought to be unowned.

Now, when the democrats finish giving the United States of America to China like the coward payola seeking creepers they are the Chinese will likely begin consuming all the cats here as they do in their own misbegotton country for quite a long time now.

The Chinese love cats. They think they're delicious. They don't have the market cornered on felines as food, either. A lot of Asian people as well as other nationalities eat them. I however, will never do so. Happy International Cat Day democrats. Your masters the Chinese will get here soon enough. It would appear that the cat is a highly sought black market food item in more countries than you might imagine.

James Ambrose Johnson Jr whose stage name was Rick James died on this day in 2004 as the result of lifestyle habits for which he apparently had no control.

Soon after my departure from the Navy I was known to listen to some of his music occasionally. My musical tastes are something which has continually evolved and some of the black people among my friends at that time were surprised to hear his music coming across my Pioneer car stereo tape deck. My favorite song by him was "Superfreak".

My favorite performance by him was on the Chapelle Show's Charlie Murphy's True Hollywood Stories featuring "I'm Rick James, bitch" where he admonished the world regarding the fact that "Cocaine is a hell of a drug".

He was born February 1, 1948 in Buffalo, New York.
He died August 6, 2004 at age 56 in Los Angeles, California.

He was AKA Ricky Matthews.

His claims to fame were singer, musician, record producer, and dancer.

He was known for vocals and playing the bass guitar, the keytar, drums, and various percussion instruments.

His musical sets were typically in the genres of R&B, soul, funk, rock, disco, doo-wop, with a smattering of post-disco in those productions.

He had his moments of stardom, took his licks and downfall with dignity, and lived fast, died young, but I'm afraid his corpse was far less than it might have been otherwise — and I failed to recognize him after his passing.

Rest in peace.
 

So it's "blogger day". I've been blogging a long time now. There have been six iterations of this blog with the last being a design of my own. I have implemented a very advanced enterprise level database to support the structure and have written custom components to support those features I view as important.

Blogger Day is observed each August 5th annually. The day is supposed to be a celebration of the platform "Blogger" which is just another crappy controlled entitity like "Wordpress" or "Facebook".
 

I have never used the service Blogger because I didn't find it in the least bit attractive and mostly just another self limiting pain in the butt like the other cloud implementations as well as all the other hackable nothings out there. I prefer an environment that I control with those mechanisms of my own design that I control for security — and I simply decline to let some SAAS simp control my presence.

I utilize the term "blogger day" as a more generic observance because I'm not your average blogger type. I also create and modify the interface I'm using as I go along. If I see the need for a feature, I add it.

Besides, as I continue with daily entries I find that blogging isn't all that anyway. I could do without any of it by and large. I pretty much do this for Mom who is likely the only reader I have.

Happy blogger day and to hell with blogger.com.
