- National Gay Men's HIV/AIDS Awareness Day 2018
-
Today is National Gay Men's HIV/AIDS Awareness Day in the United States.
A time for remembering patient zero.
The horrors of becoming HIV positive.
The early days when AIDS was a death sentence.
The meaning of contagion by a fragile virus which requires a safe zone much like the sjw students at Yale.

- National Good Neighbor Day 2018
-
When I think of good neighbors I think the late Fred Rogers. He was the absolute consummate example of manners, decorum and tolerant social identity which fosters excellent interpersonal relations.
He is about as far from the democrats, stupid adherents to ANTIFA, idiotic socialists, moron globalists, and all these other radical elements heading straight on into the disaster which can only happen when they butt heads with the wrong group of fed up conservatives ... like myself.
National Good Neighbor Day is an annual recognition each September 26 began in the early 1970s by one Becky Mattson of Lakeside Montana to recognize the importance of good neighbors.
After being established by a proclamation of President Jimmy Carter on September 22, 1978 establishing September 24, 1978 as good neighborday the senate passed a resolution by Montana Senator Max Baucus designating September 26 as Good Neighbor Day.
Seeing how Senator Baucus is a retired democrat there must have been a time when the democratic party wasn't that bat crap crazy entity as a whole LIKE IT IS NOW because too many of them know little to nothing about being good neighbors and are heading straight for those consequences toward which the path of bad citizenship typically lead.

- We are only promised today
-
I have a lot of remorse for various others in my life who have passed without my taking advantage of the opportunity to reconnect with them prior to their passing.
Mrs Carolyn Dodson
07/12/1940 - 03/25/2017
One is Carolyn Dodson, an old friend who I once engaged with my child's mind in an effort to understand people and places much better.
She is lost to me forever and the grief I sustain within my heart is something I've had difficulty relinquishing.
Despite my best efforts to regain the past it remains relegated to that time which has transpired — for "maybe tomorrow" ultimately becomes that awareness of the fact that we are only promised today.
It adds to the unworthiness which sometimes permeates my being when I recall all those moments I planned to stop by yet did not.
It multiplies the remorse of not saying what I needed to say.
We get very few friends during our journey through life ...
Much less those REAL friends such as the Dodsons and others I can no longer reach out to and embrace for all they have meant to me.
The good intentions were there but the reality was distinctly lacking.

- Lottery Antics
-
My truck is in the shop getting a new timing chain.
This has left me to my own transportation devices, namely hoofing it.
So I walked up to the nearest lottery vendor and played the ticket I brought. Unfortunately, the ticket I played was for tommorrow's lottery; not tonights.
All that remained was to walk home, fetch the correct ticket, retrieve more cash and walk back.
The guy behind the counter was amused with the fact that though I had to make two trips, I was no longer playing the "wrong" ticket — but now I had just played a ticket a day early.
Anyway, suffice it to say I need to pay more attention to taking care of business before I go traipsing up the street to play one of those six weekly plays.

- Lethal Genetics and Disposition
-
I recently attended a memorial service for a young man who had a genetic anomaly which ultimately ended his life prematurely.
He was quite young at his death and in my opinion as well as many who stated in the numerous messages of condolence I read mentioned what a kind, gentle, and sweet person he was.
The proceedings were all very sad indeed and ended on the high note of the hope that we will see him again in Heaven.
I was left feeling how sad it is to note that those who have a true appreciation of life many times are taken too soon while others who have less or none remain here seemingly forever.
This has made me wonder if the challenges associated with deep-seeded organic disease render one more tolerant otherwise ...
Or if there is some inherent evolutionary process by which those challenges imposed upon an individual with profound medical problems imbue them with a grasp which exceeds --
I dare say geometrically; compared to we who have the usual and customary health issues with which to contend.
I suppose the crux of all of this is why do the good truly seem to die young ?
This was an engaging young man who cheerfully meshed with the world around him without the faintest hint of attitude for having to contend with his underlying problems.
He participated in life to the fullest extent possible -- accomplishing much prior to dying far too soon.

- OneWebDay 2018
-
A grand vision in the beginning of the World Wide Web and those other components of "the internet" was the freedom of this "global electronic village" where all could be and communicate internationally.
Then came the likes of google, facebook, twitter, youtube and the monopoly called amazon and what have you which were acquired or first created with a stated intent of lack of bias and promotion of the exchange of ideas only to have their leaderships insert surreptitious code designed to filter results to promote the bias taint of the leadership of those companies.
And the netizen sheeples just fall into place and continue to use the tainted platforms because they either don't care, agree with the bias, or are too stupid to realize what is going on.
OneWebDay is an annual observance of internet awareness held the 22nd of September. Founded by one Susan P Crawford, her vision for this day is the cultivation of a group of individuals fostering of care about the future of the internet.
Well, Ms Crawford, your vision has been supplanted by the amazons, googles, facebooks, and youtubes of the world which have decided they will just tell you what you think.

- Kitty Habitually Craps in My Yard
-
This is my neighbor's cat taking a dump in my front yard.
This particular animal likes to spray my privet bush as well and I have that act documented in live video a buch of times.
Well ... unfortunately for him, this feline just signed it's own death warrant.
I wish to snag this animal in a havahart live capture trap baited with tuna.
Then attach a 60 lb test 30 foot chain which has appropriate clips on each end.
Finally travel to a remote nondisclosed location, toss the animal in the river for about five minutes, then pull him up, bring him home and place his corpse where I caught him to rot.
It may be fantasyland but this would be adequate warning for the other felines to perhaps gain some insight into which yard they may or may not crap.
In the spirit of good raising my Mother always told me that I should be kind to dumb animals. She also said that I could differentiate between "dumb animals" and "vermin".
This is where I'm drawing that distinction that the cat needs to go. Besides, the owner should control that animal MUCH better than she is and the LAW should enforce statutes on the books.
I try to be somewhat humane with these tresspassing companion animals of my neighbors. However, seeing how I'm not really acquainted with nor do I really like them either — the offending cats will now just have to be dealt with accordingly.
I'm bloody well fed up with them, their tresspassing, their spraying, as well as their feces.
We have leash laws but none are enforced. Just let them catch you without a seat belt on and boy they want to make an example of you.
Vermin are vermin regardless of the genus or species.

- Another Discontinued Vendor
-
Pizza Hut. I've been doing business at the 1467 Sumter St Columbia, SC 29201 location for the past ten years.
I usually get their 6 dollar buffet item with water and pay them 10 bucks for it. That's a 40% tip.
Today I ordered a 3 topping pizza for which they charged me 20.06 — which I felt was HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
So I posted a brief note on their corporate site explaining my position on the matter and that I will never return to any of their locations because of this after giving them an idea of the loyal customer I had been up to that point.
I really don't think it will matter to them, but I don't really care either.
I believe in providing value to the customers for those dollars I get.
This did not happen with Pizza Hut and now they will suffer the consequences.
I had been spending a fair amount of money with them over the past 10 years of working uptown.
Dollars add up over time.
Oh the humanity !

- Why I hate this blog
-
I hate this blog because it is an imposition.
It used to be a 'labor of love' but that was prior to learning just how crappy google is in their non organic approach to search engines where they penalize you for not running their ads and passing their leftist filtration scripting where they censor your content like the overbearing cheap shot communist chinese government.
Then there are the stupid so called "SEO professionals" who are simply shysters claiming to provide value where there is none. Can't code. Sloppy critique. These utterly skill-less posers have a better con going on than Hillary, Chelsea, and Bill Clinton — the most crooked dynasty of our age.
Finally, and there is the fact that most people cannot even read the smallest blog entry upon request without feeling put upon to the nth degree ... so I'd just rather not be bothered as well anymore.
Hopefully the new bitchain upstarts to the prevailing idiocracy of leftist moron operations like google, twitter, facebook, and youtube will get theirs and I can finally be indexed properly and fully as I always wished but never received.
Boo google.
Boo twitter.
Boo facebook.
Boo youtube.
You all suck to high heaven.

- National HIV/AIDS and Aging Awareness Day 2018
-
Today is a day set aside for HIV and AIDS as it releates to aging awareness. NHAAAD for "short".
I think that this all stems from the fact that a diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus infection is no longer the "automatic" death sentence it was in the 70s through the 90s and I dare say this has resulted in complacent behaviors among those high risk groups circulating the promiscuity scene.
Though the observance is held under the auspices of The AIDS Institute; I found tidbits of information on the CDC site as well ...
With a focus on those challenges associated with an aging population, HIV prevention, testing, care, treatment, and it's a wonder all we old people aren't running around infected by now; my point being that the level of promiscuity found in nursing homes and retirement communities is quite a bit more robust, statistically speaking than I would have ever guessed.
Where did my interest in all this risky behavior go ?
It just diminished over time and I suppose one too many psycho bitches in my life didn't provide much impetus for continued prowling on my part.

- Constitution Day
-
Constitution Day is held marking the formation and signing of the U.S. Constitution by thirty-nine signees on September 17, 1787.
It also recognizes those who are born in the U.S. or by naturalization, have become citizens.
Also known as 'Citizenship Day' it is a federal holiday established in 2004 attached to an Omnibus spending bill.
There are too many arriving here expecting a never ending fountain of entitlements promised by the democrats in return for votes which is not sustainable and for which they choose to drag the nation down in their pursuit of power.
Therefore, I am in favor of much more stringent border controls with a "shoot them off the fence approach" whereby they rot where they drop, preferably on the mexican side of the border.
Severe ? Perhaps. No more so than evil California Representative Maxine Waters and her threats or moron evil incarnate Christopher Charles Cuomo of the Fake News Network with his idiotic rantings and false accusations or the manchild David Hogg who engages his mouth independently of his brain at the whim of those who pay him to act for them.
Suffice it all to say that there should be no entitlements for illegals. No "automatic citizenship" just because you come here to breed yourself a bunch of dependent citizens and enroll in welfare.
No cancellation of the Bill of Rights by a subset of the populace out to ruin The Republic like young fool Mr Hogg and his so-called "superiors" who are merely a flock of unqualified shitbirds running his show.
No more democrats promising the sun and the moon and stars to anyone and everyone on billboards in Mexico.
No more progressives like George Soros and his paid cronies who would subvert the rule of law because he can no longer turn his own people in to the nazis as he did for profit in WWII.
No lax border controls of any kind.
With the left promoting all manner of violence towards the conservatives a critical issue has become lost in all the threats and posturing:
Many of us are both armed and excellent shots from a distance. Beware of who you threaten and my MAGA hat will not be taken from me by anyone, especially some dumb libtard. Sparticus that moment cretin leftists of The Republic.

- IoT Stratagem ...
-
The Internet of Things has been something to avoid on my network. While I secure my routers with a lock down most others ignore the entire notion of internet controlled stuff in the crib simply isn't flying with me presently ... and it's not that I don't think it is "cool" like so many others in my midst.
Internet enabled objects in the environment simply provide an exploitation mechanism I can do without at this time.
The premise lay in my opinion that the inherent risk due to hacking increases with the number of internet capable objects to be found in the enviroment.
Now to me, this certainly goes without saying. It seems that each window for malicious attack by that criminal element among the rest of we netizens is represented by the various environmental items we may control from the internet ...
Internet controlled switches, thermostats, and those other items with embedded systems could be as hazardous to our personal space as they are to the power grids and other networked automation controls we choose to place online without sufficient access control. The many articles I have read regarding IoT and risk assessment and management are really thought provoking with mention of internet controlled air conditioning, nuclear power plants, pacemakers, insulin pumps, smart meters and so forth being exploited by those who mean us harm.
So it would seem that my ever-wary conspiracy theory suspicion will protect me from engaging too much internet connectivity as a matter of controlling my environment remotely. Perhaps, if I ever view sufficient control exists my attitude may soften but I don't foresee it until I feel my firewall can prevent another person from reaching out and touching me without my express permission.
Perhaps when we stop buying all of our routers and switches from gd China my suspicious nature may abate. I simply decline to trust the enemy at all and China is our enemy. They spy on us and steal our technology and those in control are impotent to stop them.
I could stop them but I would not be popular and a lot of dead chinese would be laying around stinking up the place even more than they already do.
Technological stupidity ends when technology is a domestic product. Stop the chinese infiltration of the technology markets in the United States.

- the google domain
-
On this day in 1998 Google.com was registered as a domain name.
Early on it was an organic search engine and worked well.
Then their focus became that of an advertising company and that was where the left leaning political aspects came into play with their subsequent cooking of the search engine results to promote their left leaning proclivities and bury those incongruent with their own twisted aims.
All they want to do anymore is make money off of everyone and take your content and use it as spitefully as they like during the process.
Since they defy the settings of robots.txt in their spider activity, toward the end of preventing this domineering criminal enterprise from continuing to screw me to the wall I ended up firewalling them. They retaliate toward this measure by preventing content on android devices. This antitrust crime is something they cultivate with enthusiasm as noted in the EU and other jurisdictions unafraid to put them in their place.
Trump is not afraid to put them in their place. Neither am I ... not that it matters.

- Henry Gibson
-
Back in the innocence and stupidity of my youth there was a television program called Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In which ran from 1967 through 1973 and of which I partook regularly in my never ending quest for tube time in that period of my life.
The program was a variety show style comedy excursion into current events and classical tidbits with a character named Henry Gibson who did poetry and soliloquy among other things likely far beyond the comprehension of many who watched ...
Born James Bateman, Henry Gibson lived from September 21, 1935 through September 14, 2009. I always thought his stage name to be a play on the name of the playwright Henrik Ibsen — which I thought to be quite clever on his part, indeed. Some agree. Others don't.
His career spanned more than those comedic beginnings and included character roles running the full gamut. I remember how odd I thought it was to see him play the criminal element.
Regardless, Henry Gibson was one of those more memorable thespians in my life and I enjoyed each and every facet of his career set before me.
