Flynn's Paws: My Thoughts, My Gripes

Month: March 2010

  • 20100305-More Spooks

    While waiting in the car that morning, I was doing a soliloquy into the cellphone. This was after checking my voicemail messages from my cellphone at around 10:30am.

    Three of the messages were from the temp agency, one was from a strange `Banker` who saw my resume online and one was strange in which I thought I heard my name and something about `checking`.

    Anyway, the oldest of these messages was mysteriously erased. But all is well. I know why.

    After the soliloquy to myself, I heard a cough with the usual sound more like a huff. The window to the driver’s side was wide open. I saw that single huff came from a cyclist in a red-colored jersey. He looked to be Asian.

    It’s like I’m never really left alone, after all. The day was pleasant and sunny a bit, though.

  • 20100314-Remember WWII

    Listening to Barbara Simpson (`Babe in the Bunker`) on HOT TALK 560 AM KSFO.

    It’s about hypocrisy of Tom Hanks and making liberal comments about Japanese being `different`. The nuke had to be dropped because they were killing people, South Korean, the Philippines, China, Vietnam, etc.

    Remember the `Death March` in Bataan, P.I.

    People died.

    `Once it’s gone: History is gone`.

  • 20100313-Heart Forum

    My parents and I attended the `Heart Forum` – A special symposium on state-of the-heart cardiovascular care on Saturday, March 13, 2010, 8:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. – where we learned:

    “about the latest advancements in cardiovascular medicine from nationally respected, board-certified leaders in the field. Each lecture will be 20 minutes long, followed by a question and answer session.”

    This event was hosted by `The Heart & Vascular Institute at El Camino Hospital`.

    “The Heart & Vascular Institute at El Camino Hospital in Mountain View is the area’s only truly comprehensive program, offering advanced services at every stage of care, from diagnosis to treatment to rehabilitation. We specialize in multidisciplinary hybrid procedures, and our physicians are known for pioneering new treatments and devices. Our outstanding outcomes and quality of care have earned us awards, accolades, and professional certifications.”

    Here are the profiles to each lecturer:

    In summary, I’ve learned that less invasive surgery helps the patients to recover better and might improve benefits of life.

    To Obama and pals: Technological innovation is possible in non-profit organizations – 503(c) – such as ECH (El Camino Hospital). Please take into consideration the impact of your health care insurance reform bill upon the medical community. Your fellow brothers cannot predict the outcome of your decisions. I would encourage each citizen to contact their representatives.

  • 20100311-Code 625

    While lurking on YouTube.com for some neat musical videos, I noticed the whitehouse’s Channel has a new logo sporting `We Can’t Wait – 625`:

    I noticed that today is 3/11, which looks similar to 9/11, an historical event of controlled demolition of the World Trade Center towers in New York City. The WTC is symbolically the center of trading worldwide, right? I still don’t know exactly what how the number eleven (11) is supposed to coincide with finance to this day, seriously. Will someone throw me a bone? Sheesh.

  • 20100311-More Spooks

    While on the road again with my bio-units, I noticed parked vehicles would pull away upon our arrival. Most were utility trucks — marked with the city emblem or not. About two vehicles were in the same direction of traffic; while the last one was in the opposite.

    The spook had his window rolled down and actually looked directly into my direction. We were waiting to make a left turn at the rail road intersection and was the third in line when this event occurred.

  • 20100311-Chemtrail Day

    The whole day has been a massive sight of chemtrails in the skies leftover by aircrafts. I just finished helping Paw wash three cars for the past couple of hours or so. The streaks were situated westward and then when I went to wash the first car and then the second one, the streaks made their way eastward towards Mt. Hamilton. The laying of chemtrails, I suspect, has been done for the better part of this year’s rainy season. It’s like TPTB cannot get enough action. Now the skies are white-washed. It’s supposed to be much warmer and the skies much clearer and bluer. But because of the chemtrails, the sunlight is diminished, making the air still warm, though.

  • 20100311-Symphony Rocks

    Yesterday morning we heard `El Rushbeau` play Mozart’s Symphony in G minor. The version was performed by `Waldo de los Rios`:

    Waldo de los Ríos (7 September 1934 – 28 March 1977) was an Argentine composer, conductor and arranger.

    He is best-remembered for his ability to transform European classical music into pop music. His 1971 arrangement of Mozart‘s Symphony No. 40 recorded with the Manuel de Falla orchestra, reached the top spot in the Dutch charts and scored a top 10 hit in several other European countries. In 1970, prior to this success, Waldo de los Rios had already climbed the charts around Europe and America with Ludwig van Beethoven‘s Ode To Joy which he arranged and conducted for Miguel Rios.

    We loved the version so much that I went online this morning and right after breakfast. I found the two popular YouTube.com videos:

  • 20100310-More Spooks

    The boy came over at around 18:00pm and left at around 21:30pm. His presence intrigues my brain but aloof is my concern. I cannot figure out his mind set and his continued denial of living with a foreigner. However, he still acknowledges his OLD family.

    But he said something VERY ODD to me:

    “Please don’t take this as an offense. Staying indoors all day is self-inflicted violence. You are still young and should be more resourceful. You need more confident and make use of your talents. You have done already enough taking care of your parents. It’s time that you should take care of yourself. If I’d go crazy (or motioning about shoot himself in the head) if I couldn’t do things outside of home.”

    What makes people think my bio-units are preventing me from moving on with my life? Did you know that certain agents already know why I still remaining indoors and my true identity is hidden behind my blog entries of mostly nonsense? Did you know I have nowhere else to go but downhill into the grave like everyone else? Did you know I’ve been there and done that?

    The boy is possessed. After he left, the three of us couldn’t figure out what he meant. In a few minutes of weariness from fools for the night, only one sentence, a summary of what he said, came to my mind: He has not yet found his inner peace.

    Once again the boy is projecting his insecure `observations` about my being a home girl based on his opinions on and probably from the influence of ungrateful spooks and in turn making his worldview more so correct over those outside himself.

    His inner demons are nagging. But mine is all to myself — calm and relaxed. He doesn’t realize being introverted is meditative and prayerful, too. He doesn’t realize that parakeets are indoors too and are confined to one spacious room for flying around. What makes the difference if we are out there? We all have to go home and rest, right?

    And if he only practices inner peace without distracting himself with outdoor activities and other materialistic blings, then he and his wife alike won’t be blaming the mother for allegedly controlling her daughter. The boy already accused the mother for believing the spin doctors a few days ago.

    Listen, fools: Wait until you grow old, disabled and ugly. Do you think your friends will wipe your butt, feed you during your dying days or drive you to your doctor’s appointment? No, you say? So there you go: quit being so damn arrogant and get a real life.

  • 20100310-Beautiful Day

    That day has been beautiful after a brief, early morning rain! The sun was shining brightly. The skies were clear and blue. There were fluffy, puffy clouds of white. The air was warm enough to open the window, unlike yesterday, which was similar but icy cold. I’ve been scanning and uploading DOCUMENTS later on.

  • 20100310-Twit Time

    Prior to 18:00pm, I intercepted a phone call from the girl, who was informed last minute by the boy, who had told her about my last minute dinner at around 18:30pm.

    Here are WHITE lies – straight in a row – as told from her and straight into my earhole via the phone:

    • I forgot.
    • I’m so busy. It’s crazy at work.
    • I’m going to the gym and workout my butt.
    • I have a hair appointment tonight. It shouldn’t take more than an hour.

    Listen: If you hate us so much, please let your husband know that you’d rather do what I refuse to do – set foot in your home (or rather the house of your husband’s parents). You two have been lying to each other. Just admit both of you cannot be wrong.

    Honestly, we do not care if these two continue their path as fools. We will ignore them for `covering their assholes` but respect them for being `different`. It’s better that the truth be known: we’re family. Bruhaha!

  • 20100310-Spreading Butter

    I love spreading REAL butter on my toast, pancakes, biscuit, muffin, etc. The sweet variety is especially tasty. After this morning’s mass, the three of us decided to eat breakfast at Carrows (off Tully Road in San Jose, CA). We sat at Table 18 and at 09:05:42 PST received Check #: 332453 from Carlos A., our server. The place was VERY good about refilling the cups of coffee for their customers.

    What I noticed towards the bottom of the particular `check` was the convenience of `paying dutch`. For the total amount of $26.37:

    “If split among 3 guests, each pay —>8.79.”

    Now I was cackling loudly but had to cup my hand over my loud mouth so as not to disturb other meat eaters. Maw understood exactly the concept of `paying dutch`as I described the striking similarity of Obama’s ideologue of `spreading the wealth`. Paw looked on and listened patiently

    I compared the following two persons:

    Person A: I’m a hungry person and ordered the $8.00 breakfast meal. I’m wealthy and bought another meal at the same price to take home for later on. I have a thyroid problem that makes me hungry. As a matter of fact, my body weight is considered obese and I have diabetes and cardio-vascular problems.

    Person B: I’m an anorexic and ordered one cup of coffee for $2.00. I’m poor and did not buy a meal to eat or to take out. As a matter of fact, I refused anymore coffee refills because I didn’t want to add extra weight. I’m so sick of my body image that I cannot hold down a job or hang around people who eat like pigs.

    After eating our meal and talking about many things, our handsome waiter handed us our `check`. The `dutch trip` amount came out to be $5.00 per guest. Now Person A has no problem `forking out` [pun intended] her wads of cash and adds a last minute dessert of a hot fudge sundae for $5.00 to the order.

    The waiter handed us the adjusted `check` with the total amount of $15.00 (or a split of $7.50 per guest).

    Question: Who do you think pays more — Person A (obese and wealthy) or Person B (anorexic and poor)?

    Answer: Person B pays more, right? Correct! Person B is not only poor but has to pay taxes out of her paycheck. And in order to feed her skin and bones, she needs to pay even more taxes for food.

    But in Obama’s world, Person A pays more than Person B. Why? Because the wealthy has lots of money to spend and therefore these greedy, fat cats shouldn’t have any problem paying higher taxes, too.

    Think well, morons. Obama is serving his purpose well. Can you see, now? Neither `spreading the wealth` nor `spreading more butter` benefits the poor, who gets shafted or clogged to death, which ever comes first.
