Remembering Buckra
    White Man
One of those epithets used to exhibit contempt for white people is the word 'buckra'.

It is a perjorative term directed toward white men by black people and originates from the Gullah populations indigenous to the coastal lowcountry and sea islands of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.

Now, when I was much younger I had been called buckra by a few of the people in my life but I never took offense. This is primarily due to my lack of sophistication and my general amusement with those around me in my youthful failure to understand.

Besides, the word was directed at me by those familiar to me and with whom I interacted regularly. I've never placed a lot of store in 'calling names' anyway.

Nowadays, I can't remember the last time anyone called me 'buckra' but can assure you that it would not be met with much more than that which it stirred in me at 17; which was essentially nothing.

I'm simply not a person who gets set off by any such terms of endearment or even the casting of aspersions by others because I am already far worse than anyone else could ever imagine.

There's something about a particularly powerful and commanding vocabulary which, unlike the lame ebonics largely spoken by the leadership and app group within the IT department of the city of columbia though the discussion is "supposed" to be technical can turn a situation into a gunfight if you allow it so I try not to arm myself with sticks in the presence of real firepower.

It's just not worth it to get all bent out of shape over something you can easily quash with a look, or a few minutes of strangulation, or the drawing of that formidable weapon ... and I have so many from which to choose.

People simply don't typically feel it necessary to "call me out" because I just don't go there anymore. I lack the interest in confrontation — yawn.

So all in all I'm much less the intolerant bully and more at ease than I once was in my impetuous youth. It's all in your experience with the world and it's denizens which makes the bulk of the difference. Hot headedness never benefitted me once. Therefore, those aspects were bound to diminish over time.

Call me what you will. If you set me off you'll wish you hadn't but I'll certainly let you get your entire thought out prior to pouncing on you should the need arise. I don't typically try to injure people anymore. It's just not worth it. I just tolerate the stupid as long as I can then move on.

World Theatre Day 2021
Theater Masks    
When I was a kid I was this young fool thespian oriented fellow who thought he was going to write scripts and screen plays and star in various horror flicks as produced by his best friend and confidante ... the late Chris Gagnon.

All of this transpired at a time when puberty had just begun and I had experienced my first abdominal surgery in the form of an appendectomy.

Today is World Theatre Day. Observed since 1962 (I was 7 years old) by a group called the International Theatre Institute. It goes down each year on March 27 and is primarily supported by ITI and the international theater complex touting the theme of theater and wussie 'culture of peace'.

While I'm all for the theater part ... at least I was back in the day; my personality is far to combative anymore to be this culture of peace idiot in the presence of the left and their insane purusit of illegal voting and immoral attempts to do anything and everything contrary to good character then make it a law.

So anyway, if you're a thespian this is your day and I hope it's a happy one for you.

It's an evil Nancy Pelosi Birth Day 2021
    Nancy Pelosi evil demonic bitch from Hell
On this day in 1940 somewhere in the middle east a jackal gave birth to Nancy Pelosi who was taken to America and grew up to became a lawyer then migrated to politics and was promoted to 60th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives by those leftist democrat libturds of which she is a prominent one of many unscrupulous immoral satanic members.

She is part and parcel of everything wrong in the Republic. She promotes the stealing of legitimate elections, supports billboards in foreign lands trying to coerce people to move here under the promise of unlimited entitlements for which she and her criminal political party cannot pay ...

But for which she can only fleece the legitimate taxpayers with incessant tax increases which cannot be justified just like her partner in crime Joe 'slaw for brains' Biden is doing presently.

This abomination is a liar, a cheat, a thief, and a crook, and should be taken out with extreme prejudice by any means necessary along with the rest of her democrat party crook ass ilk.

Die Nancy Pelosi. Die and burn in Hell where you belong.

International Day of the Unborn Child
My attitude toward abortion is one of ambivalence.

On one hand, I view it as a necessary therapeutic procedure in cases of compromising injury, genetic abonormality, or rape.

On the other, I am staunchly against it's use as a casual means of birth control as practiced by the feminists who think 'my body my choice' even when that choice is spreading their legs and copulating with anything that passes their way.

Numbers 35:31

Moreover ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.

Job 31:15

Did not He who made me in the womb make him,
And the same one fashion us in the womb?
Pope John Paul II    
Today is the International Day of the Unborn Child.

It is observed each March 25 since established by Pope John Paul II.

John Paul II was the last Pope of the Catholic church who held my respect.

The buffoon Pope Francis does not hold my esteem however and IMHO should have never been elected with his lack of Biblical knowledge and strange religious ideas I feel The Almighty may take issue with at the great white throne judgement ...

However, as a person I cannot judge him and leave that to He who can and will.

He chose this day to coincide with the Feast of the Annunciation.

John Paul II thought the day "a positive option in favour of life and the spread of a culture for life to guarantee respect for human dignity in every situation".

Garry Shandling and I didn't really connect
    Garry Shandling

One of those television personalities I never really appreciated was Garry Shandling. His medium was comedy and he starred on both It's Garry Shandling's Show and The Larry Sanders Show. In all honesty, those periods of time incorporated years I was full time faculty teaching college and I'm afraid that I simply lacked interest and appreciation in most things then, particularly toward the end of my tenure.

Working with stupid people will do that to you.

Garry Emmanuel Shandling was born in Chicago on November 29, 1949. He passed this earth in Santa Monica, California on March 24, 2016 at the age of 66 (which is my present age).

Mr Shandling began as a comedy writer for television then migrated to stand up. He was popular on the Johnny Carson Show and pretty much became a fixture as guest host and was even in contention to take the show over upon Mr Carson's retirement.

Garry Shandling was nominated for 18 Emmy Awards for The Larry Sanders Show which aired on HBO. He appeared in a couple of my favorite movies which were Iron Man 2 and Captain America: The Winter Soldier. He was a voice actor on top of everything else.

My particular notice came upon his death from pulmonary embolism when I saw how many in the media and significant others around me were either sad and introspective or grief stricken. I have always had a soft spot for the bereaved and therefore was quiet and respectful as various others voiced their sadness and reminisced about those performances they had particularly enjoyed during his career.

His last performance was portraying the voice of Ikki in the live-action remake of The Jungle Book.

I feel the man was quite the talent; however his heyday conflicted with my own having occupied a timeline parallel to bad times in my life. This convergence rather places a pall over most aspects of comedy, which was what he was all about.

When your personal life is simply never ending tumultuous human misery and crumbling all around you from the stupidity you are forced to endure while earning a living the last thing you're interested is someone who tells jokes.

Hear that stupid Susan, stupid Cathy, and STUPID Barbara ?

Yelp Sucks
Eric Cartman Yelp Critic
I have never understood the people who think Yelp is a good thing.

The contributors are dilettantes looking for some following which never matters, the information is slanted from an either "I love it" or "I hate it" perspective with little in the way of organic objectivity, and it all reeks of cronyism and puffed up self importance that repels me.

I don't do Yelp.

I don't EVER intentionally visit yelp.com as I consider it, it's contributors, and it's audience to be a clique set of either niggardly clientele or pseudointellectual self aggrandizing self indulgent phonies out to spin you into submission to their whim one way or another in a flurry of charletan expertise and busybody "me too" mentality.

The information is peppered with entries that are stale and inaccurate. There are active profiles on local businesses which were closed — some long ago. The local personalities describing their experiences are by and large hayseed pudgy southern gals and most importantly, I find the bulk of that information provided lacking for purposes of evaluation.

I cultivate my own opinions and ideas then pursue those as I see fit, not those of some yelp commentator and their special brand of self important irrelevant subjective drivel.

Though I decline to be yelp's bitch myself I certainly don't mind if you assume the position for them you spellbound no life of your own toad.

yelp sucks

KJ's Market Frozen Pizza Thaw
Tostinos Triple Meat Party Pizza    

I went to the local market to pick up a supply of frozen pizzas as they are a staple of my week and I will pop one into the toaster oven for a quick and easy snack.

I'm particularly fond of the Tostino's Party Pizza Triple Meat variety and have been known to buy them in lots of 5 or more.

Upon reaching into the freezer case I noticed that the pizzas were spongy and not very cold — you know, to be coming out of a freezer case and all.

I checked all the pizzas in the adjacent case area and they were all thawed, spongy, and were not "cold" ... much less "frozen".

I decided to forego the purchase because indeed, I have arrived home with thawed pizzas from this same case in the past and had trepidations regarding the health impacts possible from consuming thawed frozen pizzas ... particularly the ones containing meat.

Upon conferring with Mom, who knows a lot about food, prep, and storage she too did not think it a good idea to either buy or consume thawed frozen pizzas of any brand.

She indicated a bit of alarm at my admission to having done so in the recent past.

I sent KJ's a nice email on their contact form regarding the situation. Mom has lost confidence in them and has requested that I purchase my food items elsewhere.

So now ... it appears that my decision to return to Walmart for food items will be accelerated despite my wishes to give my business to the other area stores.

Luckily there have been no health issues of which I am aware.

Noting Dinesh D'Souza
    Dinesh D’Souza
In the course of my life I've been forced to reevaluate my notions regarding various things toward which I've cultivated attitudes over the years.

One of those is the significance of Indian-Americans as they relate to my world view and personal world inventory.

In the beginning there was Dr Vasant Garde. He was the first person to convince me that others had opinions and experience valuable to my existence.

In continuation of his influence, I was already open to Dinesh D’Souza ...

Whom I follow closely via his podcasts, interviews, and other interactions I have located on the web and other venues.

He is an intellect far beyond my own and I value his insights to the world and those actors who would impose their false narratives upon me such as the US Democratic Party and the left in general.

Dinesh D’Souza is a prolific writer, emminent scholar and intellectual, and has also become an award-winning filmmaker.

Born in India, Mr D’Souza came to the US as an exchange student at the age of 18 and graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Dartmouth College.

I will always be grateful for his 'pulling me from the fire' so to speak as I have been able to temper my world view and gain an appreciation for the people from other cultures who have something to offer to this boy from the deep South that was not there previously.

Cheers !

In 2006 the abomination Twitter founded
Jack Dorsey    




On this day in 2006 Twitter was founded.

Under the leadership of evil egocentric megalomaniac Jack Dorsey it rapidly devolved into the premier 'filtered' selective content rendering hidden and fake news piss poor excuse of a social network on the planet.

The censorship and banning of individuals using the platform is astounding for the organization to continue to claim Section 230 legal examptions in the face of violation of absolutely everything for which this particular piece of Internet legislation stands.

Even those who speak out against it fail to boycott the evil empire for what it is.

The hypocritical wussies of the world give lip service to something they are unwilling to pursue actively due to the decline of character in the people of the world.

Boo to all of you stupid twits, especially Jack Dorsey and the evil unscrupulous immoral Twitter itself.

Great American Meatout 2021
    Great American Meatout

March 20 brings us another Great American Meatout. Held since 1985 in protest of the US Senate resolution proclaiming National Meat week (January 31 through February 7). It's become one of those leftist libtard protests with components of so-called 'diet education' in all the leftist symbolism over substance touting vegan fare over those preferred by we carnovores of the world.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, while I do acknowledge the health benefits of vegan diets and vegetarianism the facts are that I am not the only meat eater on the planet ... just one of the most apologetic ones around ... but I digress.

The Great American Meatout has a number of observant activists and is observed by around 25 nations presently including the US. This is a time for food demos, leaflet distribution, information demonstrations, and a pitch to attendees to "kick the meat habit" on March 20, which is the beginning of Spring.

So while the event is promoted by some 40 governors and another 47 mayors in the US and all the leftist libtard promotion by the main stream marxist media including Time, The Huffington Post, and the LA Times it simply is not the mainstream happening the libtards may have originally envisioned.

So as I prepare my boneless, skinless chicken for tonight's meal I wish The Great American Meatout well for those proponents who observe it and leave you with a hearty 'Good luck with all that'.

1918 Congress, time zones, and daylight saving time
clock face    
Now daylight savings time (DST) and Eastern standard time (EST) are the same animal with one accommodating the longer days of summer and the other optimizing the shorter days of winter.

My personal feelings are that I can take it or leave it.

It's just something that has been in effect my entire life so I grew somewhat used to it. I do admit to arriving quite early for work a couple of times due the the time change — but all in all it hasn't really fazed me.

So some of the people are fairly against the time changes, others are adamantly in favor of the time change ...

Still others like myself are quite ambivalent and could really give a rip one way or the other.

On this day in 1918 Congress of the United States established time zones and approved daylight savings time.

The rationale was a provision of additional daylight hours to accommodate our largely agrarian and rural society at that time.

However, DST clock shifts were found to complicate timekeeping sometimes disrupting travel, billing cycles, record keeping in general, medical devices, heavy equipment, and sleep patterns.

Nowadays, computer software generally adjusts clocks automatically and many devices are equiped with radio control (so-called "atomic" clocks) which are radio controlled and synchnronize with "official US time" kept by the National Institute of Standards and Technology of the US Department of Commerce.

Some places in the United States do not recognize Daylight Savings Time. There are somewhat controversial efforts to eliminate it altogether as unnecessary in our more modern world which is far less dependent of daylight hours than it once was.

The jury is out on the final disposition of Daylight Savings Time and I don't know if any taxpayer's will serve in the decision. Much of the tedium assoicated with national adoption of conventional event handling is secondary to the legislative branch which enjoys taking charge of matters regarding which they are unqualified and then committeeing and caucusing it to death.

Harvey Weinstein Birthday 2021
    Harvey Weinstein

Harvey Weinstein is a pretty miserable human being these days. He is incarcerated, feels rained upon and persecuted for doing what "everyone else was doing" in his industry and is positively eat up with the "why me" pity party thing.

His career was at the pinnacle of film production as the co-founder the entertainment company Miramax from which he fell to the status of "former" film producer and convicted sex offender following sexual abuse allegations dating back to the late 1970s.

The proceedings didn't interest me much because I felt that some of the victims knew (or at least should have known) what they were getting into ...

But be all of this as it may, I personally don't think that any individual should be allowed to make unwanted advances toward another at all because it's simply unseemly to the level of being creepy.

Some of the photographic evidence passed around on the dark web simply substantiated the "creepy" factor up one side and down the other and I personally was amazed at how shameless some of the photographs were given the physical appearance of this guy in all his nudity and flabbage.

Now, an obese physically unattractive person of the male persuasion can certainly attract a number of willing females nonetheless with whom to cavort in full blown carnal knowledge but forcing the act based on career hooks is pushing your luck given the utterly litigious nature of the world anymore. He should have been keenly aware of how lawsuit crazy a person with any legitimate claim and an axe to grind would be in this day and age given those amounts of cash he was raking into his personal coffers.

I know I would have been much more careful under the same circumstances — but it also would have been much easier for me given the timid self conscious guy into which I have evolved.

Besides the 'metoo media' not withstanding mixing love, sex, and work makes for multiple points of failure during interpersonal relations anyway and this should have been enough red flags flapping around him ... but it wasn't. I could never have felt so invulnerable and devoid of paranoia under those circumstances.

His earliest possible release date from his sentence of incarceration is November 9, 2039.

Happy birthday anyway, idiot. I think I would have preferred the career to the consequences of predation myself — but that's just me.

Congress repeals the Gold Standard for US Currency in 1968
The gold standard was a monetary system in the United States where the country's currency or paper money has a value directly linked to gold.

With the gold standard, The Republic agreed to convert paper money into a fixed amount of gold.

Countries utilizing the gold standard sets a fixed price for gold and buys and sells gold at that price.

February 1965 saw turd President Charles de Gaulle announce an intention to exchange its US dollar reserves for gold at the official exchange rate.

He sent a contingent of French Naval forces to collect this gold and the action was followed by several other countries as well.

We need to stop doing business with just anyone. In particular not the enemies of the state such as China, Iran, and the former USSR so favored by the democrats and the strange bedfellows maintained by their criminal families as well as the leftist libtards who actually believe they will be in power forever.

gold bullion    
On this day in 1968 in a singularly irresponsible move from a standpoint of fiscal responsibility the US Congress repealed the requirement for a gold reserve to back US currency.

This is the problem with elected officials of varying motivations being able to make dangerous decisions on the behalf of the entire nation without oversight of any kind.

This move has lead to the theories that Fort Knox no longer holds any gold bullion because the reserves were fleeced by various law makers, civil authorities, or whomever and there has never been a move toward responsibility nor accountability.

Where is the power to hold government tribunals and make the lawmakers accountable under threat of public execution.

I think if we started killing some of these idiots allowed to take charge and made them totally responsible for their actions for a change we'd have less in the way of ridiculous failures of leadership and other associated aspects of the leftist spin on governance of The Republic.

All this bad leadership has snowballed into the leftist notion that they're going to steal the country for their personal enrichment by pillage of the taxpayer in perpetuity.

Think again libtard dirtbags. Too many see you and know what's going on presently. Pelosi, Shumer, Schiff, Nadler, the Squad, et al your days in politics are numbered stupid human beings.
