Torture and Suffering in the name of God
When I was a child I was pretty cruel. I no longer engage in such cruelty — which assumed various forms and those manifestations were not subject to regret until much later in my existence.

I have since encountered people, particularly but not exclusively females, who are by comparison much more cruel than I ever envisioned behavior in this time. They will lie, cheat, steal, and fornicate to get ahead and that is simply the way some of my cohorts at work have been.

Tomas de Torquemada
Tomas de Torquemada
The Grand Inquisitor
October 14, 1420 - September 16, 1498
    
There was a period of religious persecution enacted by the Catholic church called The Inquisition. During this time persons of faiths other than catholicism were subjected to outrageous torture on a scale which is difficult to fathom in modern times. There were torturers and the implementation and invention of new devices of torture and it all came under the purview of a single human being.

He was an officer of the church called the "Grand Inquisitor" and in the name of God he would inflict aggregious bodily harm on so-called blasphemers who were primarily Jewish and Muslim individuals captured for conversion to the "one true church" according to them.

Tomas de Torquemada, aka Thomas of Torquemada, was a Dominican friar of Castilian origin and first Grand Inquisitor in Spain's movement to bring all persons into the Catholic Church or send them to God if they refused.

This transpired in the late 15th century and became known as the Spanish Inquisition resulting in expulsion thousands of people of Jewish and Muslim faith and heritage from Spain in that misguided attempt to bring everyone into a single compliant catholic fold.

Life was such that it was simply expedient in all aspects to convert to catholicism or die. The fear invoked at the thought of being the subject of the Grand Inquisition was enough for many to convert. Other more staunch adherents were tortured for their piety and many murdered by Saint Peter's Holy See congregation.

In retrospect, it is no wonder that my personal opinion of the catholic church with the passing of John Paul II has suffered over the years. The present regime with two incompetents playing pope simply aggrevates my disdain for what I view is pure evil in religion even more.

google.com registered in 1997
On this day in 1997 google.com was registered as a domain name. Google began as a well designed organic search engine with sophisticated command line parameters but devolved into an incapable advertising mechanism which can't do much in the way of information retrieval unless the topic being search is a paid ad nor can it perform accurate geolocation to save it's miserable leftist libtard ass.

Google evolved into a failure and that stupidity of the people who continue to believe in it is evidence for that lack of critical thinking rampant in the moronic "feelings over facts" offspring of United States today.

This proprietary name is often used as a verb by uninitiated stupid people who represent themselves as computer professionals but aren't. You can tell these people by their frequent instructions to others saying "google it" and the blank unknowning expressions on their faces.

They are frequently fat females who speak ebonics or other forms of bad english instead of intelligently discussing technical matters, mispronounce jargon and technology with innumerable technical errors in their failed attempts to relate facts — and are typically of poor character in general and likely have children out of wedlock.

google fingers

Boo Google.
Boo pseudointellectual liars masquerading as computer professionals.

The Passing of Diana Rigg
    Dame Enid Diana Elizabeth Rigg DBE
Dame Enid Diana Elizabeth Rigg DBE
July 20, 1938 – September 10, 2020
I marked the passing of Dame Enid Diana Elizabeth Rigg last Thursday with a somber interlude as I recalled elements of my childhood and those moments I watched The Avengers with her as Mrs Emma Peel and Patrick Macnee as John Steed. Oh the intrigue. The battles. The drama of it all.

She was one of the first television personalities I viewed as "hot" and I would watch episodes even though my understanding of the plot and characters was limited in my young age.

It was all interesting to me to see this beautiful woman engage others at various levels and the intermittent action was an added plus.

She had other character roles over the years. My most recent following of her career was her portrayal of Olenna Tyrell in Game of Thrones and the shocking ending of her death by poison and admitting to killing the evil Joffrey Baratheon just before the toxin provided to her by Jaime Lannister took her life.

I must admit not knowing who she was until late "in the game" as it were.

Ah, hers was a life of stage and screen and in the end she was able to reflect happily and laugh as her life drew to a close. Our lady, Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire succumbed to to cancer which had been diagnosed in March at her London home.

I will always view her and her art with a fondness borne of my youth and that childhood attraction of a young boy for a beautiful woman above his awareness and beyond his reach on the television screen. It's the stuff of magic.

Rest in peace.

Resuming Study of Magick Evocations
Skull and Cross Bones    

At the risk of who knows what I have resumed the pursuit of magick as it applies to spells, the death and destruction of other humans, and generally raising havoc at the expense of my enemies.

Back in 2011 I had a scary interlude in this regard which caused me to put it down a long while.

Now ... I have resumed. It is interesting to note that my past endeavors involved the passing of three people all of whom succumbed to cancer. I am told that the likelihood that three different people subjected to such influence with the same results is unlikely to be a happenstance event.

The consequences of these black arts are not fully known to me.

It may well be that I will cross some unseen line and lay waste to various things without intent.

However, my list remains and I'm fully immersed in the incantations associated with destruction and death.

Here's to hoping my enemies die before I do.

I'm willing to take those risks associated with additional successful evocations such as that I have known in the past.

There comes a time when a day of reckoning is the only thing that matters. I am there and dragging four others who are presently unaware with me. I can only see what happens. You will remain in the loop.

National Day of Encouragement 2020
F U
Today is the National Day of Encouragement. It has been held each September 12 since 2007 in the United States and is meant to remind people that encouragement matters.

The beginnings are said to be a group of high school students attending a leadership conference who were tasked with a solution to the biggest problem that face young people in their time.

It was first proclaimed by Mayor Belinda LaForce of Searcy, Arkansas on August 22, 2007 making September 12, 2007 the "State Day of Encouragement" for Arkansas.

Later, President George W Bush also proclaimed September 12 the official "National Day of Encouragement".

The Encouragement Foundation is making plans to get more states involved in the National Day of Encouragement in the future.

Hell. Nobody ever encouraged me aside from my mother and this appears to be more of that "participation trophy" drivel which has caused the people to think that their feelings matter above any facts in their lives.

A bunch of leftist libtard nothing.

Remember September 11, 2001
Remember September 11, 2001

The September 11 attacks consisted of a series of four coordinated attacks allegedly by the Islamic terrorist group al-Qaeda against the United States on the morning of Tuesday, September 11, 2001.

I recall that day; where I was and what I was doing in great detail. At the time I felt the interruption of my class to be very inconvenient given the difficult topic ... but when the towers fell I rather fell silent in quiet contemplation of the consequences and the anger of my cohorts and clients.

There is a large body of evidence for governmental false flag complicity in the matter and the Bush administration rife with attempts to make a submediocre chief executive with lackluster credentials otherwise who should have never been elected appear heroic and presidental ... but it remains a controversial stagey appearing topic to say the least.

My personal attempts at investigative inquiry were resisted vehemently by those from whom I sought information.

There is obviously something to hide by these people.

Still, too many questions remain unanswered in light of 2,977 fatalities and 25,000 injuries otherwise along with the victims contending with long term disability secondary to exposure to the massive amount of toxic particulates released all around in the collapse of the World Trade Center towers.

John Wayne Gacy teevee Special haunts me
Yes Newt there are monsters among us ...

I recall Aliens. The movie starring Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley, Michael Biehn as Corporal Dwayne Hicks, Lance Henriksen as Bishop the android, Carrie Henn as Rebecca "Newt" Jorden, and the late great Bill Paxton as Private Hudson among others in what has proven to be one of the most exceptional ensemble performances I've ever seen.

I rather perturbed my mother when she discovered my ability to speak the lines in the movie along with the characters. This was some 100 or so views of the vhs I taped then watched over and over. Anyway, in one of the scenes Ripley and Newt have a moment where the child states how grownups tell children that monsters aren't real but that they really are to which Ripley can only ruefully agree with sympathy for what has been a horrendous childhood of a little girl all alone on the planet LV426.

Well, the xenomorph in Aliens is most certainly fiction but the harsh reality is we do live among monsters. Our fellow human beings who will hurt us and kill us for various carnal, psychological, and existential ends known only to them.

Gacy and Xenomorph mouseover    
Such a monster was John Wayne Gacy. He was a sex offender and serial killer who performed for children as what I personally felt to be a bizzare, sinister appearing clown character named "Pogo" and sometimes "Patches". He was active in the democratic party (of course) and maintained a business as a building contractor.

This deviant pervert was convicted of sodomizing a young boy in Iowa in 1968 and was sentenced to 10 years in prison but was released after servicing but 18 months. His first murder happened in 1972. I was in the eleventh grade.

Two more murder victims are known as of 1975. There are 30 subsequent victims who were killed after his divorce from his second wife in 1976.

The investigation into the disappearance of a Des Plaines teenager named Robert Piest led to Gacy's arrest on December 21, 1978.

He admitted to murders committed inside his ranch house near Norridge, subdivision of Norwood Park in the metro Chicago area.

Typically, he would lure a victim to his home and trick him into handcuffing himself under the pretext of demonstrating a magic trick, then rape and torture his captive before killing him by either asphyxiation or strangulation with a garrote.

Twenty-six victims were interred poorly in the crawl space under his home. There were many comments regarding the pervasive odor of decomp throughout the home. Three others were buried in other locations on his property. Four victims were discarded in the Des Plaines River.

His conviction for 33 murders was a record for one individual in United States at that time. Gacy was sentenced to death on March 13, 1980.

While on death row at Menard Correctional Center he spent much of his time painting. He amassed quite a collection of these works — many of which collected by locals when they were sold at auction. These were purchased and ceremoniously burned by persons who sought to eliminate him from their collective memory.

His home became such a source of embarrassment and horror by individuals living nearby that the property was razed to the ground after authorities were sure they had recovered all evidence to be had from the location.

His execution by lethal injection was carried out at Stateville Correctional Center on May 10, 1994. Thus this evil human being is no longer among us preying on the young, the inexperienced, socially inept, and the weak.

Michael Cohen is a lousy attorney
    DISLOYAL by Michael Cohen the Rat
Michael Cohen is an attorney who violated attorney client privilege between him and his long time client President Trump.

He makes a number of allegations like the rat that he is. All of them, particularly references to attempts to get Russia to interfere in the 2016 election, the Stormy Daniels debacle, and other alleged transgressions by the President are being taken with a grain of salt and an eye out for the sour grapes of termination and coersion by the democratic party during their sham impeachment investigations of which nothing was proven.

Then he makes a number of allegations he likewise cannot prove. For a person in a field which is supposedly based on the truth this man makes a poor case for attorneys everywhere. This cheese eating democrat surrender rat is rather like an ambulance chaser only he's attempting to cause the injury then profit from it.

In the United States a President is innocent until PROVEN guilty. This unscrupulous and immoral turd counsellor at law could do nothing except cast aspersions and now seeks to profit from the same. He is as untrustworthy as lawyers get and I'm not saying any of them are worthy of our trust at all. This one in particular has proven himself to be every bit the slimy bottom feeder that pointy fingered girlyman Chuck Shumer, the fugly and stupid Nancy Pelosi, dimwit Jerry Nadler, the eternal liar perjurious Adam Schiff as well as their host of democratic party accomplices demonstrate before the television cameras ad nauseum.

I simply decline to believe all the voters are as stupid as the democrats and this slug would have us believe.

Considering the source, this fodder would not be interesting reading for me as a technophile who doesn't pursue works of fiction as a rule.

BOO slimeball Michael Cohen.

Retail fails in the United States
dumb    

The pitiful state of retail in the United States has me thinking every internet retail establishment should just be allowed to go belly up and crumble into the dusts of time like those brick and mortar counterparts are doing. I have never encounterd a more inept situation of the incompetent handling ecommerce so badly that they shouldn't be allowed to exist. I hate to harp on this but Ann Coulter's dealth squads are simply looking more attractive by the day. The symptomatology of a bunch of people who cannot cultivate much in the way of working thought is simply mind boggling for me personally.
 

    stupid

I attribute this to the generation raised by idiots who thought their children's feelings matter more than anything else and everybody got a participation trophy. This is where competitiveness and the pursuit of excellence died in the United States. The stupid parents are the fault here and they should suffer the consequences of their children's actions instead of the rest of us. Never having contributed to society and the pervasive leftist indoctrination of the school children is the fault of the republican party for letting it all happen. So now all they can engage are menial employment opportunities where critical thinking and a knowledge base are unnecessary.
 

Fruit of the Loom logo    

Case in point. I tried to buy about 30 pairs of fruit of the loom men's briefs in a waist size of 40. The stupid search engines return all kinds of results but when you go there nobody has anything and the so-called search engine simply routes you to people paying them without relevance to what you are looking for and that presence of those items.

Libtard moron thy name is millennial. Curse you and the stupid people from whose products of conception your dumb ass arose.

Duh. Can you say militia and civil war boys and girls ? I fear it's coming.

Remembering Burt Reynolds
    Burt Reynolds
Burton Leon Reynolds Jr lived from February 11, 1936 through September 6, 2018 and was an American actor, director, and producer of film and television. He was a so-called "sex symbol" and was every bit the icon of American popular culture as the Jackson's all believed Michael to be when he could manage to stay out of little boy's drawers.

As one who was never a true "fan" of Burt Reynolds I sure did encounter him a lot in my entertainment choices. The movies Deliverance, Gator, the Smokey and the Bandit franchise, Semi-Tough, Paternity, Sharky's Machine, the Cannonball Run franchise, Heat, Boogie Nights, The Longest Yard, The Dukes of Hazzard ... and the list seems to go on and on.

Saw all of these and more. Liked them. Just never considered Burt Reynolds a part of my life as I have so many character actors of the science fiction and horror genres.

My personal favorite scene of his would have to be Deliverance when he shot the hillbilly rapist with the bow and arrow. Get up in those woods take off those panties and squeel like a pig, indeed.

I suppose it all stems to that jealousy I had for his marriage to Loni Anderson and that covetous thing we're never supposed to feel but sometimes do. Yes. I held Loni against him. I'm only human.

His career had up and down turns. It was said it was easier for him to get to the top than it was to stay there. He had some financial difficulties along the way and even released a country album. He did a bit of directing. He won awards during the course of it all. He was considered a "sex symbol" and an icon symbolizing American males and all things masculine.

Burt Reynolds passed of a heart attack at a hospital in Jupiter, Florida, on September 6, 2018. He was 82 years old. Alas, his exwife Loni Anderson issued the announcement to the public. He was cremated and his cremains were given to a family member.

Oddly enough there were appearances he did that were released posthumously.

Arthur Nielsen was a Marketing Person
A long time back I received a telephone call from somebody I didn't know. She said she was with the A C Nielsen Company and wanted to speak to me about my submission.

I recalled the time I was being polled by the Nielsen ratings questionnaire so while normally, I don't take such calls, but having remembered that time I asked her to proceed.

Arthur Nielsen Sr    
She wanted to know if I indeed intended to state that I was listening to channel 12 in Augusta, Georgia on the car radio as the submission stated.

During that time I was undergoing truck driver training in Orangeburg and indeed I sat in the automobile during lunch and listened to the radio and it indeed was the television channel in Augusta.

She engaged me in a few other questions and sounded as though this were a curious thing and we parted company on a high note about five minutes later.

This has been my second encounter with Nielsen and at this stage of my life I seriously doubt that I would indulge them again.

The Nielsen Company was created by Arthur Charles Nielsen Sr.

He was an American businessman who had an electrical engineering background and whose primary claim to fame was being a market research analyst.

He lived from September 5 1897 through June 1 1980

His company ultimately became proprietor of the Nielsen ratings.

Since that time I have pretty much cultivated contempt for persons with marketing backgrounds as scavengers and charletans and as such I don't interact with them at all unless I absolutely cannot avoid it.

Like the seo phonies who would have you think they can "optimize" search engine results with their artificial methodology, marketing degree people think they are fully qualified to teach cisco at Midlands Tech even though that instruction is not borne of experience nor innate knowledge, only the dumb presentation of prefab training materials provided to them.

Duh.

Arthur Nielsen had a son who was his namesake. They played tennis ... another personal aversion. The son lived to the mid 90s when he passed so both are primarily relics of the past whose company survives them to this day. Not bad for a marketing bullshitter, eh ?

First Southern 500 at Darlington SC in 1950
    NASCAR credit card
Shortly after I moved into the home in which I presently reside I received a notification from my credit card company that they had approved "my request" for a NASCAR credit card for which they would be deducting the limit from my present account with them lowering my previous limit by that amount.

Confused, I called the company and stated that I had not requested a NASCAR credit card from them or anyone else and I inquired as to how an account could be opened in the absence of an application from me.

To this they replied that they had one.

I told them that this could not be that I would never seek a NASCAR anything and the lady asked "why?" to which I replied that I hate NASCAR. I did, I do, and I will. I then asked to be given a copy of this application which was never received.

Needless to say I terminated all business with this credit card company and have never done business with them again.

Someone on the planet assumed that all people in South Carolina naturally love NASCAR and felt this oversight would not be caught and they likely would have received that card for a nice bout of fraud at my expense.

No, only the insipid inbred southerners in South Carolina love NASCAR. I could never be one of them.

Regardless, on this day in 1950 the first Southern 500 was held at Darlington Raceway.

This is the first 500 mile race held by NASCAR.

NASCAR has seen better days in the past. Forbidding the Confederate Flag has rendered them less than they were in this state because they exhibit the same stupidity of some blacks and others who see it as a racist symbol when in fact it symbolizes our honored war dead ... of which I have family members included in that group.

The bottom line is Darlington Raceway, Florence-Darlington Tech, the horrible thief Dr Dent in Florence, and everyone in the PeeDee as well as my best old ex friend Charlie Paschal who set me up for Dr Dent can go straight to hell as far as I am concerned.

Boo !

Confederate Battle Flag

Remembering Miss Kitty Carlisle
Miss Kitty Carlisle
Kitty Carlisle
September 3, 1910 - April 17, 2007
    

Catherine Conn aka Kitty Carlisle and Kitty Carlisle Hart was an actress of stage and screen and singer who frequented the game show circuit dressed to the nines when I was a boy.

She is best remembered as a regular panelist on the television game show To Tell the Truth from 1956 through 1978.

Among the other programs to be seen on the black and white televisions of that era were Password, Match Game, Missing Links, and What's My Line? and I saw most of these regularly in my pursuit of after hours entertainment at home.

She was typically upbeat, pleasant, witty, and urbane and had an easy smile — simply the perfect game show contestant who could garner interest in what she was all about while delving into the topic before her and the television camera.

She was on the New York State Council on the Arts for 20 years and luckily did not live to see her beloved New York City suffer at the hands of an elected libtard democrat governor and mayor as it has declined in this day.

She was awarded the National Medal of Arts in 1991 and became inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame in 1999.

Kitty Carlisle passed on April 17, 2007, from prolonged pneumonia secondary to congestive heart failure in her Upper East Side Manhattan apartment, with her son at her bedside.

She is interred at Ferncliff Cemetery in Hartsdale, New York next to her late husband Moss Hart.
Rest in peace.
