  • Wee pigs…

    When I viewed a YouTube video about “Women Know Your Limits” six days ago, I didn’t laugh but only at the kitten part.

    You see, I lost my funny bones long ago by a WHITE boy whose intelligence and “sexism” tagged with dry humor boggled my mind. I didn’t like that energy coming from that guys, even if he was handsome, rich and popular. I spat him out like chewing gum into a hardened wad stuck underneath my callused heals.

    I still recall his feign spitting sound of disdain, too, with regards to him not liking women wearing gray-colored contact lenses. Well, I happened to have experimented with gray-colored contact lenses — FreshLook Colorblends. It made my eyes look blue. I got a kiss out of one guy for wearing those contact lenses. But the boy didn’t like the unnatural look to my eyes.

    Anyway, I’ve been following/reading about bros and how they ought to behave among each other.

    Long ago, I’ve read opinions of how certain religions have been portrayed as “homosexual” to include mostly male priests/leaders, altar boys/servers and a heavenly father and his earthly son and without much reference to females, the mother figures and earthly daughters.

    I couldn’t understand how a “straight path to God“ could be spiritually “correct” any more than than surfing in a straight line, which is no fun, save for the changing course to catch a wave. It’s getting late and you get one “Oink” for trying and two “Oinks” results.

  • 20111014-More Spooks

    Yeah. It sucks being one of the alleged people in the “middle-of-the-road“. Just read my blog and view my Flickr photostream of spooks. You will see blurry photos of them, of course. One is the divorced nutter in her persimmon tree. The other one appeared out of nowhere a day AFTER I intended to expose TPTB and soon after a noisy copter in a few minutes of that incident. The other one is a mysterious envelope. Of course, I had the chance to mess with them but won’t play their game.

    Anyway, I noticed a white kid with another kid/sibling and probably his moo-cow mother near a light-colored car, which has been parked on the side street of the neighbor across from us. He was wearing one of those normal-looking sneakers. The color was black and white, just like the spook I photographed via my Flick account. Even Landy and another buck-teeth (who sat at the mall last month) both wore those types of shoes.

  • Hiding photostream…

    I’ve NOT deleted my Flickr.com account. Rather, I went through each “set” and “changed permission” so that “only me” could see my precious photos. My upgrade has already expired this month and I don’t plan on renewing it. I believe the links to each Flickr photo is no good; therefore, the images posted via this weblog site won’t be seen. I really do NOT see how I could possibly benefit from posting my personal information online for publication, really.

    Think about it.

  • 20110414-Floppies Away

    Since my HP personal computer doesn’t have a floppy disk drive to format these disks and donate them for reuse, I removed the metal clip with a pair of strong scissors, cracked open both “front” corners and pulled out the metal media, which are to be shredded and recycled. Here is a colorful photo to show for the results. As you can see there are 16 circular media surrounding the rainbow of plastic casing and the metal pieces in the middle. (The Batik bedspread acts as a backdrop for IBM-formatted, disk by FujiFilm, of which 13 are 1.44MB 3.5″ double sided, high density, floppy disk drive utilizing DOS and 3 are zip using ATOMM (Advanced super, Thin layer & high, Output, Metal, Media) of One ultra-thin magnetic layer for superior high density recording and One “titan-fine” non-magnetic layer for durability.

  • Prelate of Honor

    The three of us attended an “Evening Prayer For The Conferral of Ecclesiastical Honors” on April 2, 2011 at the “Cathedral Basilica Of Saint Joseph – Diocese of San Jose, CA”.

    Chaplains To His Holiness:

    • Monsignor Jeronimo Gutierrez
    • Monsignor Wilfredo S. Manrique
    • Monsignor Hien Minh Nguyen
    • Monsignor Eugene Patrick O’Donnell
    • Monsignor Francisco David Rios

    Prelate of Honor:

    • Monsignor Stephen F. Perata

    Bishop of San Jose:

    • Most Reverend Patrick J. McGrath

    The three of us left at 4:33pm. We parked at the Fremont Hotel garage (P1) and were undecided where to get out and pressed the “L” button, which lead us to the lobby of the hotel.

    After asking which way to the Cathedral, we found ourselves inside the building and meeting the droopy-eyed parishioner, who kindly lead us to the restroom, which is an entrance way to the Loyal Hall where we had our reception after the conferral.

    As we emerged from the alleyway towards the front of the Cathedral, we saw Father Perata come in from the side gate. He talked with my parents and I took their picture together. He then blessed us with his right hand and I thought he forgot me. He said to me: “You’re just bashful.” “Yeah you know me.” I replied. In response, he said something to me about: “Old “deadpan“.

    After retrieving two small bottled water from Paw’s Mazda Protege, I had to sit away from my parents because the Chinese lady who ALWAYS coughs during weekday morning masses managed to grab my chair. I had to sit next to a Filipina friend of an couple who is “active” politically.

    My “saved seat” was fifth chair from the middle-most aisle of the Cathedral. It was the fourth row nearest the recessed display of the crucified “Christ” and crew. I was wearing a WARM fuzzy, purple-colored, turtle neck, short-sleeved sweater. I had to take off my THICKER, acrylic sweater.

    From exactly 6:00pm to around 6:35pm, the celebration was mostly singing in the Hispanic flavor that is San Jose. It happens to be the 30th Anniversary of the Cathedral (1981 – 2011).

    P.S. I didn’t know how to use the garage ticket. and after a couple of attempts of swiping both the ticket and my card into the exit machine, we figured out how to use the PAY MACHINE near the elevators with cash for
    $6.00!

    American Wheelchair Mission — A Global Wheelchair Mission Partner — Changing Lives Through Mobility

    The American Wheelchair Mission is a non-profit organization with a goal to deliver brand new, free wheelchairs and mobility aids to physically disabled children, teens and adults throughout the world who are without mobility or the means to acquire a wheelchair. With a strong focus on the needs of Children in Latin America, the American Wheelchair Mission will continue to change the lives of entire families with the gifts of hope, dignity, freedom and independence.

    Your participation can make the dreams of children come true!

    During this morning’s mass at 10:45am, the choir sang with more animation, almost as if they were uplifted in spirit. They used to sing with seriousness and in depressing tones when the choir master was still alive. During the funeral mass of the choir master long ago, I noticed the narrow facial bones and sharp jawlines when l shook the hands of the daughter and mother.

    Anyway, instead of the dark-skinned, very short Filipino priest saying the sermon, a 4th degree member of the Knights of Columbus was invited to speak about their mission — wheelchairs. There was a yellow-colored wheelchair in front of the alter.

    He showed us a video of some parishioners from Laredo, Texas receiving their wheelchairs. Normally, I would keep my cool. But because today I had my PMS, I shed some tears when I saw how a young boy lost his legs to infection and other elderly residents got their wheelchairs.

    I was truly moved by the short video and for a tax-deductible $25.00 donation, I would get a pin! I showed my $20 and $5 bills in cash to Maw but she suggested a different amount. I noticed most parishioners were mostly Asians and not interested. I was disheartened to see not many participated by placing their hard-earned money in to the “second collection” baskets but I did see an elderly couple pull a few envelopes from the pew. The website of the organization was imprinted on the envelop and perhaps they would donate later online.

    Here is an image of my new pin:

    Of course, Maw and Paw were not interested but we did notice how lots of groups seem to be “infiltrating” our parish for “good causes”. I was told over ten slong years ago to be careful about charitable organizations. At this point, I felt that the “fellow brothers” were doing honest work. And if I find out they are pocketing the peoples’ money, so help me God!

    After their mission work here at our parish, the “fellow brothers” will go to Vietnam and then to the Philippines. Oh, that’s nice.

  • 20101105-Noticing Numbers

    Here is an image showing Paw’s odometer reading as 33,333:

    Odometer Reading
    Odometer of Five Three's

    Paw was excited and asked if I had my camera to take a photo of his odometer. He noticed the number turned just as he made a left turn into MY road en route to that morning’s mass. I took a lot of photos, which were mostly blurry because the light was too dim and the flash was too bright.

  • 20101023-Divorced Nutter

    At around 2:10pm or so, the divorced nutter sprayed Maw with the garden hose. It was a little bit and Maw and the boy, whom I called later on have said that it doesn’t matter because the SJPD won’t bother. It was about to rain and yet here is L0L!nda water her plants. The way went OVER THE FENCE!

    Anyway, I was using the air compressor on the four fans at that time when I heard Maw making sounds. She was harvesting some chayote on the southwest corner of our backyard. I guess the sound rattled the nutballs nerves.

    I ran upstairs to look and saw the nutter holding the garden hose and waving it up and down from a good 10 feet or so – which is in directly line of where Maw was from behind the fence.

    Then I went downstairs to retrieve my digital camera and took two photos of her. A few minutes ago, I finished up on the two remaining fans and heard the nutter making noise – calling: “Manang!” She called my real name too. Paw said she was up on the patio roof screaming.

    Earlier this morning around noontime or so, there were sounds of hammering going on the roof. I visualized that she should take a dive into her imaginary swimming pool down below the pavement ground. I was trying to get some long mid-morning nap too and felt that the sunshine wanted to come out from being the rain clouds – but barely.

    Below is a blurry image of the woman from the upstairs bedroom window. It was through the opened window. The shot is unfocused because it was through four panes of glass – outside and the opened part from the inside. My hands were shaking from the adrenaline rush of running up and down the stairs and making a brief phone call to the boy. She actually danced for and giggled to my camera.

  • Icon Archives

    After adding more `text widgets`, I decided to lurk online in order to reduce the clutter in my sidebar. Lo and behold, I found:

    Icon Archive (Great Icons for Win, Mac & Linux) – 31,800+ free icons, buddy icons, xp icons, vista icons, desktop icons.

    So I’ve downloaded six icons and placed five icons into a `text widget`, which is currently located underneath the `search form` and near the top of my weblog. But since I didn’t want to directly link the `png images`, I had to convert the files into `jpg` by using MS Paint! Then I uploaded each image, provided proper credit (or linkback) and VOILA!

    Here are the first five icons, followed by two `Mini-PNG` WordPress logos:

  • Sparkly Light

    20100828-IMG_8145

    Originally uploaded by FlynnsPaws

    At around 7:47pm, Maw reported to me her paranormal `experience`. She claimed to have seen a sparkly light in the shape of a cross over the head of a statue. The blinds to her bedroom window was opened at the time of her `sight`.

    Again, here is a sample of selfish people who could have validated what they have seen by inviting others to witness this fine event. Instead she chose to say three `Hail Mary’s`.

    Earlier, I held one of Shrimpsei’s red-colored, dome-shaped orgone pieces in my hand while sending an image of concentric circles to a bunch of Lemurian-shaped clouds over Mt. Hamilton.

    I wonder if they had anything do to with the statue. I was also entering my `help` on a spreadsheet. That’s a lot of FOOD!

  • Got Gifts?

    Upon arrival at home around 6:15pm, I eyed a USPS box in the shape of a book. It was sitting on a table where Maw and I dump our handbags. I thought the contents would have been a signed book for my collection. But I got four orgone gifts instead. Thanks, dude(s).

    Below are three photos and can be found on my Orgone set via Flickr.com:
