  • Increase taxes…

    I hate to say it but the wealthy need to be taxed. I believe they are Republicans, too. It is almost next to impossible to cut spending. That’s what Ben had mentioned in a LONG conversation with four other old timers (the twosome, his wife and Fred, who had on a dirty gray shirt-yuch!)

Later I saw Gloria walking with the wife of the florist. We had encountered them earlier this morning at the Farmer’s Market near Piedmont High School.

    Cat friendly town

    I don't know any town with the most friendly people because I wasn't visiting or living there.

    Parakeet

    The deaths of my parakeets during my childhood were among the many experiences with death of not just pets but as members of my family. I recall really crying. But for whatever reason, I don't grieve for the deaths of people.

  • Cut it out…

    I like Neil Cavuto and how he keeps asking direct questions and won’t back down until the questions are answered properly.

    So Speaker Boehner and POTUS Obama are talking about the debt since 11:00am Eastern Time. The goal, as per Neil Cavuto this morning, is to cut spending and taxes at the same time.

    By cutting spending, such as Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, welfare and other socialized benefits, which are NOT entitlements, the citizens will have no other choice but to look for a job.

    By cutting taxes, without any special treatment to any entities, the businesses have no choice but to open shop and hire these deadbeats, who have been spoiled by the government handouts.

    As far of giving us no definite answers or timeline, that’s how these non-human entities operate – to tell lies upon lies because one truth will unravel all the other lies. I personally know this truth.

  • Lose the tone…

    A few days ago, I logged into my account on an OPEN forum discussion board of crystal workers and entered my vote. As it stand now, I’m the only one who didn’t like the tone! And according to a site on “lab viruses”, the frequency is supposed to be Satanic!

    Old Denny’s site has a purple color. “Dawn” likes purple and funky clothes. New Agers like charka colors and aliens. Does that make them “moon lovers”? What’s going on here?

    Now I believe old Kenny and the old fart Beavis are correct: something is wrong. There’s a dead smell. While old Denny keeps clowning the “native”, others are keeping quiet.

    Let’s see: Who should I believe? All, some or none? I think they are either in cahoots with each other out trying to corner the market with their junk.

    It’s too bad that I can’t figure out their purpose. I’ll just read their articles and amuse myself. Nothing is to be gained by getting too concerned with these people. They are beyond me.

  • Now or later…

    “You can cry all you want and bang your head on the wall. But when I am dead, I wouldn’t know if you are grieving. While I am alive, you should enjoy every moment with me and be there for me when you are needed.” ~My late maternal grandmother to Maw long ago.

    —

    Don’t expect recognition and praise or blame others for your hurt feelings. For example, Uncle Ver expected a warm welcome from Minerva, who totally ignored him. Instead of thanking her for taking care of his late Uncle Julian with her own money, he verbally attacked her. He wanted people from a poor island nation to come up to him and shower him with undeserving platitude as if he is wealthy.

    Even Malouse participated in a loud conversation during my paternal grandmother’s one year anniversary prayer of death. She and her siblings didn’t financially support Minerva while the old man was alive. Instead they were hoping to sell the house in the Philippines and then repay her with the profit. Minerva didn’t want their ill-gotten money. They got mad at her refusal, too.

    Maw said that those who cry a lot when someone passes on is the most guilty. Once the deceased has passed on there is no way to apologize for mistakes for not doing all the good things for the person or saying all the right things to make the person feel alive. If only the siblings of the girl, in another example, would have taken the time to conversed with their deceased brother while still alive, that would have counted more than mourning his ghost.

  • Bomb kills 7 in Oslo and several dead in shooting

    Bomb kills 7 in Oslo and several dead in shooting
    By Walter Gibbs and Alister Doyle | Reuters – 58 mins ago

    OSLO (Reuters) – A bomb killed seven people in Norway’s capital Oslo on Friday and a gunman opened fire at a youth camp on an island, police said.

    Today is a double digit number of 22nd in July. On 22nd of August, I wonder what would happen?

  • Construction sounds…

    For the past few days, there were orange-colored signs showing “Loose Gravel”. They are along MY long stretch of road. A few minutes ago and about another half hour or so ago, I heard engine sounds, which I assumed was a train traveling slowly on the tracks or a blimp hovering slowly over head. After turning off the lights and the computer monitor, I peeped through the closed blinds to see yellow blinking lights. Yup. It’s some sort of construction — perhaps for the road and/or new VTA/Bart system.

    Tick

    Besides Mom, a former guru has influenced the way I see the world. No! Wait! Actually there is no one person but a group not of this dimension. "They" helped me to see things, not differently, but there are differences – they look human but are not as they appear. While I still learn the fundamentals of the mundane from the people around me. I see the world as one large organism, with us as insignificant parasites.

    That’s it! My brain stopped blogging! There’s no more inspiration, except blogging about today’s weather, which was HOT around 84 degrees F with crispy clear blue skies and VERY slight appearances of sylphs in the skies. This evening sported orange haziness during sunset. Prior evenings had some pink clouds. What I used to find exciting in blogging is no longer fueled by addiction but replaced with emptiness and mostly thoughts long forgotten.

    Tiger

    I must have my teddy bear tiger when I was a kid. He was small and soft and had markings of black and orange. I never left home without him and took him wherever I went. One day he was gone. I cried everyday until Maw created a replica of my one and only toy. I remember being told by the baby sitter to leave him tucked away nicely under the bedsheet. But when I came back and looked for him he was gone. I searched everywhere inside the house and was teased by her two children. I know she took him.
