  • 20080921-Editing Weblog

    Well, I’m still using the ‘Quentin’ theme for free here at WordPress.COM. Another scrollbar was added to my paid CSS stylesheet for the bottom bar (or ‘menu’) section. This is how I envisioned the look of my weblog site: a static look of the text containing my blogs above with the widgets containing researching tools and photos below. I didn’t like the idea of using the ‘main’ scrollbar of the internet browser. I like mine short and sweet (pun intended).

    Only a portion of the post (or page) is seen. But for the more curious and patient readers who want to read the rest of the text there is always the scrollbars for the ‘content’ and ‘menu’ section. To spice up the look of my weblog site, I’ve changed the background color of the ‘body’ from the original ‘maroon-brown’ to ‘light cream’ and the ‘content’ from ‘light cream’ color to ‘pale weak read’. Then the clipart of red scrolls and flowers (that I originally used for the ‘DePo Masthead’ theme) is set to float right. I’ve added a solid border of 3 pixels in ‘maroon-brown’ for the ‘body’ to give the look of a frame.

  • 20080920-Daily Diary

    Heard helicopter around 04:50PM after waking up.
    Saw long sylph forming from distance of Bay towards our house.
    Then copter left after I stuck my tongue out and wiggled my hands near my ears like a bulls horn.

  • 20071105-Mayan Magic

    Tonight, I decided to publish this blog entry to keep away from watching our new 40 inch Sony Bavaria, plasma television downstairs. After watching all three videos of ‘The Mayan Calendar’ via video.google.com the other days, I decided to view the main website at http://www.mayanmajix.com. I clicked on several pages of this website. And on 11/05/2007 at around 10:00AM, I experienced extreme sadness and cried my eyes out after discovering that ‘Ian’, the lecturer of these videos, passed on long ago. I guess this feeling is very empathic.

    I cannot remember why I made this journal entry or its meaning of: ‘[I] heard [Ian] clear in voice 01:29:00 into [the] video and then Pacabel’s Canon came on at end of video’. All I know was that at around 10:15PM on 11/05/2007, I experienced another profound sadness. This was after reading a journal entry by ‘Matty’, ‘Ian’s’ wife. She was putting away his picture. Below I highlighted another one of my synchronous event in bold, red color from her journal entry:

    IN THE SHOWER

    5 / Wisdom

    Anger crept in, it snuck up like a guest of wind . . .

    Hours trickled by, my body became stiff, a shower was in order, feeling the warm water was over me. Singing frees my mind from all the chatter. Summer Time and The Livin is easy. I love that song. Shaving my legs, clarity hit like a bolt of angelic wings engulfing me. It was time to put Ian’s picture away. He’s been sitting on my dresser, I love looking at his sweet face, talking to him brought great comfort.

    This is the next chapter, release all attachments.

    Later on, I cannot recall when but I’ve entered a post (via ‘Signature of Aliveness’ on her website as: Wee: The small sound of exuberance. I haven’t visited the site since to see if my small post was published.

  • 20080802-Dream Journal

    I woke up 07:30AM to clear blue skies and very bright sun.

    There were two other people with me in the room.
    I dreamt of a Chinese medicine cabinet belonging to doctor.
    It was on its ‘back’ with lots of drawers.
    The wooden surface felt very smooth to the touch.

    I drove there and then back.
    I see behind me a vast countryside.

  • 20080920-Overflow Scroll

    OMG! After playing around with the overflow code for scrolling at a width of 450 pixels with a height of ‘auto’, I finally got the ‘content’ section (or ‘page’ and ‘entry’ section in other WordPress.COM themes) of my paid upgrade for CSS stylesheet to look like a ‘book’. The text widget labeled ‘Main Menu’ is now visible and is located directly below the ‘content’ section as the bottom (not top) or navigation bar. My weblog site is best viewed with a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels pages).

    Please take a gander at my newest discovery: a right scrollbar for each post (or page). Y’all will have to scroll downward to read the rest of the text. I do notice that my text aligned as ‘center’ were compromised and are now text aligned as ‘left’. I will have to figure out why this overflow scrollbar messed up the ‘content’ in this manner.

    For hover (or mouseover) images, the position for each ‘div class’ within the CSS stylesheet should be set to ‘static’ because the images with the position set to ‘relative’ would not stick and instead would ‘hover’ over the bottombar whenever scrolling downward to view the rest of the ‘contents’ of the post (or page).

    I retract my ‘hating’ the sneaky volunteers at the WordPress.COM forums in a previous blog entry. If it weren’t for the forums I wouldn’t know about overflow scrolling, two columns and hover (rollover or mouseover) images without using plugins or JavaScripts here at WordPress.COM (due to security reasons). I always check on the forums for any updates that I may have overlooked.

    While bloggers could learn some tips and hints the smart guys, beginners like moi could learn much better by doing the legwork of researching online (too) without the embarrassment of asking too many ‘stupid questions’ through the forums. There are the ‘FAQ’ or ‘help’ sections at WordPress.COM and those are very helpful.

    After one year with WordPress.COM, I’m getting better at programming my weblog site to suit my needs. Then again there is my paid, self-hosting for twenty-four months via WordPress.ORG. And that will take more than one year to perfect and learn thoroughly. If only I had the means, time and patience to read through the documentations, I could link my weblog site here at WordPress.COM from WordPress.ORG and still advertise and make money while still blogging.

  • 20080920-Dream Journal

    I drifted in and out of sleep due to ‘Kali’ listening to the loud radio and I awoke around 09:00AM.

    Dream one:

    I was inside a house with simple furnishing. There were people indoors. I see lots of books lined up along the side of this white wall, mostly to my left field of vision. The books were being arranged, starting from in front of me in a counter clockwise position. Immediately to my left was a darkened area, probably fake plant. These were at eye level while sitting down. But I was standing up the whole time.

    Dream two:

    Then I found myself walking with Hillary Clinton to my left field of vision. We were talking and I couldn’t tell her in time that we wanted her for president of the United States and that ‘Kali’ would have voted for her. We were walking in this very dimly lit building with very high ceiling. I am not sure if the place would have echoed since we were the only walking. I then mumbled under my breath, thought to myself or mentioned loudly to her something about the planet and people. She might have held my hands or touched me in assurance and said to me either: ‘We are here to save’. ‘We don’t destroy’. She smiled widely as she said this to me and we laughed out loud together. I responded to her: ‘I know: THE LIGHT’. And I pointed upward with my right index finger very slightly that she might not have seen this gesture. We then passed through a door located to my right field of vision.

    Dream three:

    I then found myself going from one dimly lit room to another dimly lit room, from left to right in my left field of vision. I saw some words were written mostly in orange or brown on the bottom part of white paper as big as my small computer desk. Some more words were written towards the top but I’m not too sure about the middle portion. There may be a glass separating my dream self as I watch myself in action.

    Dream four:

    I remember being outdoors and there were lots of tall trees. There were activities going on. I was looking out the distance of mountains as if above the tree lines. Below I see some water that is partially filled, mostly in the middle.

  • 20080920-Sticky Post

    Testing sticky post.
    Who has the most?
    Me! I will boast!
    Drink up, first toast.

    Posts are not static.
    Pages are erratic.
    Short and sweet:
    Keep it neat!

    Say what you mean,
    Mean what you say.
    Be clean, not mean,
    And play. Don’t stray.

    Read more about me,
    He, she, it or them.
    Truths agree,
    But lies condemn.

    Sticky, posting,
    Ranting more.
    Picky hosting,
    Time to snore.

    Goodnight.

    Author’s note: Just testing this sticky post and decided to create a short ‘poem’.

  • 20080919-Eating Spews

    Let’s put it this way. I am still alive. I will live. (An anonymous caller coughs into my earholes intentionally. I popped my left fingernail (middle) into the cellphone receiver for him to hear loud and clear.)

    In my mind, his fleshy body of lard decays slowly as he spoke about the same noise of no timeline whatsoever: to wait until next week (by Wednesday), until next year (and never) or until death do us part (ideally), whichever comes first. I am not the only fool affected by these ‘white lies’ — a very small price of knowledge and patience, where many doors are opened but is nothing compared to those who continue to spews lies to the public at the expense of souls. No unpaid debt could possibly make up for lost times or lost lives.

    Not all the golden nuggets in the world could possibly replace money, a worthless piece of chattel paper. Investing in gold, like real property, is another scam whereby greedy (‘angel’) investors depart with their hard earned cash, already devalued. People cannot eat paper money or metallic gold. I certainly cannot form that soft yellow metal with my bear hands and make beautiful jewelry to wear as shiny bling on my humble person. Gold cannot be a strong enough roof over my head, too.

    Yet gullible people and dumb voters alike continue to feed on lies about no new and higher taxes from politicians, including those running for president of the United States. I don’t think the U.S. government could possibly bail-out the failed banks with trillions of dollars without making its citizens work hard and pay taxes, which will in turn pay back China, our largest debtor.

    I feel like TPTB will continue to let us down not economically but bodily by keeping us half-alive with food genetically modified, processed and pre-packed in plastic and aluminum, with water contaminated with chlorine and fluoride, with air irradiated by nuclear fallout and with questionable death shots by vaccinations and lab-produced medications of mostly unpronounceable ingredients. Our minds are pretty much numb to the truth (or dead meat) that we are paid slaves.

    We continue to believe with high hopes that our next president will save us and provide us energy. This is false. Because I remember another administration from the Democratic party that messed up big time during an economic recession. And that was over twelve years ago from 1993 to 2001. I don’t understand politics well but I see a pattern whereby the bad (economy/Democrats) gets worse (with war/Republicans) unless reform ‘steps in’ and ‘intervenes’ to get the country back on track.

    I believe that if we want to repay our debt to China, the United States should start sharing its Native resources in the form of untapped oil. In recent news, I don’t like how y’all are capping on a particular Native. It’s not nice what y’all did to them and it’s not nice what y’all are doing to their land now. By drilling now, we would stop the snickering behind our backs and higher prices as the gasoline pumps. We need to repay back those debtors, who helped America and its people now. It’s better luck now and it’s good luck for the future generations. Ni hao (你好)!

  • 20080919-Bad Squirrel

    Foamy, you are a bad squirrel! How dare you mock moi by using my ‘real’ initials of F. B. for your latest episode entitled FORUM BORE ‘EM — ‘A RANT ABOUT FORUMS & CLOSE-MINDED BLOGGER ASSHOLES…!’ How dare mock your ‘fellow brother’ by using his level degree of ‘33‘ for you weblink!

    You will offer us an apology of walnuts, free T-shirts and mugs sporting your anger and hatred for us forum participants and blogging perfections. You will bow down to your Almighty God, the Kitty Kat known as ‘Flynn’s Paws’! You shall become our newest pet and take your place beneath our ever watchful eyes as we rake your gray furs off your back with our sharpened claws.

    ‘Flynn’ has become very cross at your foul-mouth and grows quite impatient at your belligerent behavior. It’s all because you too, my little ‘friend’, cannot get a life away from your computer and your addiction to Macromedia. Try as you may we will continue to rant about our opinions. This is our purpose to tell the truth, which you and your pea-brain cannot understand.

    Open your eyes, you gray squirrel! You are tiny and a rodent. We are mighty and much more. We pray that you will turn away from the dark forces which possess your hardened heart and blackened website. All hail to ‘Flynn’s Blogs’, an ego extraordinaire! She has spoken but is sleepy. But will Foamy listen? Meh!

  • 20080919-Editing Weblog

    It`s a great brouhaha! I`ve kept busy on my weblog site the whole day — yesterday. Besides viewing more `smiling` photos on a day of clear blue skies, I`ve constantly tested (on a post set to private) and successfully created three hover (or mouseover) images for my `static` pages: `Home`, `About site` and `Web book`.

    Then I switched from `DePo Masthead` theme (which lacked certain features) back to `Quentin` theme (which had bigger fonts) and finally decided a width of 750 pixels was better than a width set to `auto` because the maroon background was not hidden and the content was more readable (or contained) nicely against the lighter brown colored `rap` section.

    Last night, I learned how to set most of my `static` pages to two or three columns: `Contents`, `About site`, `About me`, `Pen name`, `Profile`, `Contact me`, `Links` and `Popular prayers`. This layout shortened the long pages almost by one-third. The readers may find this more convenient with less scrolling.

    In order to draw the attention of readers better, I added hearts and bold fonts some of the links located at the bottom widgets. That`s it for now. All I do is read online articles about politics and conspiracy and forum threads on WordPress.com.
