  • Click Me!

    Last night, I’ve updated my ‘About me‘ page, which could be found within the top nagivation bar of my blogsite. I’ve modeled this page after a couple of personal sites and one dating service.

    Below is a humorous version of a ‘personal ad’ combined with the look of an ’employment resume’. The purpose of this particular blog is to entertain the eyeballs of the public. And for those who want ‘to know’ me better, reading my blogs is a great start.

  • 20080719-Strange Cars

    Around 11:50AM, I noticed through our front window the same beige-colored, four-door sedan making a U-turn down my long, stretch of road. Only this time, a shiny SJPD, highway, patrol squad car was tailing it from behind. Then I ran to the television room in hopes waving down the squad car but thought it went straight ahead towards the railway intersection. But the squad car made its U-turn and speed in the opposite direction in hopes of intercepting that car.

    I’ve noticed recently how this vehicle (with two missing hubcaps on its right two wheels) would park next to the house across from us and along my long, stretch of road. The guy has a portly belly and would wait there underneath the neighbor’s eucalyptus tree. Then yesterday or the other day, which I cannot recall, he got out of his driver’s side of the car and went to open up his trunk.

    He proceeded to stamp on some aluminum cans as loudly the sound echoed back into our open front, window. For me anyone opening their trunk is signaling their ‘gang members’. I’ve had this happen too many times. I know this is recent because I’ve been living in this neighborhood all my life, never moving to anywhere else.

    So yesterday another parked car contained a handsome-looking, dark-skinned Asian (who really appears Filipino) to me. Maw and I had finished harvesting some long, stringed beans and purple ‘sweet pea’ pods from our backyards. She had grown those from seedling and now the plants are taller than us, almost the height of six foot.

    We made our made from the backyard to the front yard when I noticed that guy, who mysteriously disappeared. I believe another vehicle came to pick him up because he left all four windows opened. This was after both Maw and I harvested Philippine eggplants (with very dark purple skin) and long Anaheim, green peppers.

    I wonder if our fellow San Jose Police Department has noticed the parked vehicles along my long stretch of road, which is my middle name, my mother’s maiden name — both of which appears fully spelled as part of our identification documents.

    To add at around 11:00AM on Friday, July 18, 2008, I noticed a long shiny, silver-colored truck load check in at the main gate of Moffett Field. The back part of the load had the following website, in which Tesla has been on the something all these years. The truck load was parked near the airstrips, by the way.

    Once again, I’ve consolidated my various proses into poetry. Earlier, I kept myself busy with the inventory of home applicances and small kitchen appliances. I didn’t realize how much junk ‘Maw’ has accumulated over the years. There are so many tablewares (dinnerware, flatware/silverware, glassware, servingware and linens). I’ve logged the major items for vehicles, home furnishings, lawn and garden as well as decorations. The next headaches are jewelry and more under electronics and computers. The rest may be donated to charity or sold for money. Enjoy!

    I love you.
    That’s all you need to know.
    You love me.

    Me want you!

    You want me…
    How is this possible?

    Believe in yourself first.
    ‘God’ exists for believers and a ‘non-God’ for non-believers.

    Don’t follow religion blindly.
    It’s dogma divides with the usually ‘us versus them’ mentality.

    Eat and worship a juicy burger.
    Its round, yellow bun looks like the Father’s Sun.

    Sing praises with raised tentacles.
    The delicious spaghetti monster is serving meatballs, too.

    Allelujah! Slurp!

    What if we are all right?
    That God exists in the mind of those who believe in God(s)/des(es).
    And that we are loved by ‘Him’ eternally and unconditionally.

    What if we are all wrong?
    That nothing conceived just yet doesn’t matter at all, anyway.
    And that we are created by ‘them’ (or a ‘not-God’) instead.

    I cannot cry as this beautiful sight:
    Wasn’t moved without the sound;

    Flowing music playing, my tears began;
    Avoid romantic videos with all my might!

    Twice the problems of navigating
    The forum website of more problems
    Rants and raves from posters
    Asking questions blindly
    Like throwing darts blindly
    And in the dark

    The answers would arrive.
    AFTER asking questions
    From my muddled mind
    Or thick headedness
    Like thinking out loud:
    There would be telepathy.

  • 20080110-Dream Journal

    ‘Maw’ had awoken me from my dream about 07:46AM and I almost forgot the details. So after twenty minutes of typing out two pages worth of material below is my dream.

    First dream:

    I was dreaming of standing underneath a tent of white. I was standing with white guys to right; while there were girls standing in line to our right.

    A garden I was over looking to my right as tall white guy with lots of muscles held me in his arms. He was wearing and slight open, white crispy shirt. I kept staring to my right side at this garden. The garden had green grass below and lots of trees in the distance to the right. As I turned my gazed to my left, he lifted me up in arms. I thought he was so strong and He must have been over 200 lbs to lift up my weight.

    He left and I was talking to a guy to my left. I think he was sitting or crouched lower than me. There was another guy to my right. I don’t know if I said anything to the guy on my right side.

    Both the guy to my left (and maybe the guy on my right) left the tent to the right and walked outdoors up this ramp. I was still talking to the guy from my left on our way about dogs and how they were able to wear dog collars. He seemed slower as I urged him along.

    I looked down between his shoulder which was slightly hunched over and suggested that he wear a shoulder strap (or leash) so that someone (I) could pull him along faster as we were going up this ramp. Then I motioned with my hands in front of me that cats were not as friendly as dogs because they would scratch with their paws in the air while wearing a collar.

    Second dream:

    Then we got to the entrance door at the end of this ramp. There were lots of other Japanese students. The place was old and dusty. We were crammed into this small place and we were looking at some broken small wooden pieces. Then we made our way out towards our right and into another enclosure.

    I could see to my right some stream of light filtering from the ceiling above but a long narrow passageway that seemed wide enough for a gutter. There was a dark wall to a right and another wide room enclosure below that was also well lighted.

    There was a door I could seem below in this enclosure and following the floor to the right was a sliding door. Something caught my eyes initial at the very end of the upper level of this narrow gutter like passage but also something else had exited from door below and disappeared to the right.

    I saw a painted, pale-faced, Japanese-like lady in full kimono outfit following this first apparition. I yelled something in Japanese and told her: ‘Stop!

    After this happened, we all looked straight ahead as we were still on the ‘left’ side on the upper left. Below this enclosure was another door straight ahead. And another apparition was emerging to go across the room below and to the right where the first apparition had disappeared to the right. I yelled: ‘Yatta!’ and all sorts of Japanese words. She too was painted pale and in full costume. I said in Japanese: ‘Sumimasen!’

    Third dream:

    Then I saw a tall black man, an actor. I became this person and approached a door that was about to close down for the night around 05:00PM. The count down read all the way from one and to zero. The counter was to the right of this door. I read this closely and expected to hear a locking sound but nothing. I opened the unlocked door and went inside this café-like building.

    The interior was dim and there were lots of stools and this long counter from one end of the wall to the other. The booths were along either side of the entrance door where I came in and was also from one end of the wall to the other.

    A man with dark hair was talking to the lady, who was working from the other side the counter. He left and I started talking to the lady. I wanted to gain entry to this door located directly behind the counter. This door seemed very thick with heavy door paneling all around and green in color. But she walked away to her left side while behind the counter in an uncooperative attitude.

  • 20070109-Dream Journal

    I awoke from a dream and heard someone say: ‘And they were left on their own…’ I kept thinking this person, probably in a male voice, meant the Dutch people. I remember looking back from where I came out, which was outdoors and daylight. The place was green — grass and some trees.

    Straight ahead was the strongly build structure of light color. I see a person walking towards and disappearing to the right. There was a large white vase as high as one story because the person walking past by it was about as tall as one-fifth the height of this object. There seemed to be another tall vase to the left but my line of sight was being blocked.

    The prior scene was going towards a place that could lead me back out to the green garden area. But a guy in a long trench coat of probably a shade of brown color was standing to the left side of this entrance way, which was a few steps down to the door below. He was looking to the left side of my dream and oblivious to my presence.

    I slid or scooted down ward to find myself emerging elsewhere on the top side (or next level up) of this same structure. There appears to be a handrail and I followed that straight, left, then back almost like in a ‘U-shape’. There was another landscape to describe after coming out of the ‘U’ but I forgot rest of the dream.

  • 20070715-Dream Journal

    There was a two story house
    There were lots of people inside this place.
    I see white man, big nose in another room.

    I was happy and having fun.
    I was going downstairs with shoes or slippers.
    I went downstairs to garden area.

    There were at least two people gardening.
    One was female and one was male.
    Mom and I were shopping in the garden.

    We went down the straight path leading directly from the front door of this place.
    There was a wall to the left at the very end of this path.
    The wall seemed two stories high.

    There were rows of flower beds were at least four across by two in height.
    We removed one tray of flowers from lower right.

    This bunch of flowers was mostly pink with some yellow and other colors.
    I liked the yellow ones from another tray of flowers.
    Mom decided to keep the first selected tray of flowers.

    Mom was wheeling the cart away to my left.
    I looked into the wall afterwards.
    The wall had openings where flower beds were removed.
    I saw there was an empty room with tools inside and towards the back wall.
    The trays seemed as long as one room in length.

    Prior 1-9-9-9 date
    Saint Therese prayer gate
    Send my flower to God straight
    Online photo blue rose fate
    Open petals five times rate
    Looking at me without hate

    A saintly poem of seven-lined stanza with seven syllables in monorhyme.

    Author’s note: When I came across this online photo, I knew this blue rose was picked especially for Him through the following prayer:

    ‘St. Therese, the Little Flower, please pick me a rose from the heavenly garden and send it to me with a message of love; ask God to grant me the favor I thee implore and tell Him I will love Him each day more and more. Amen.’

    Nature:

    White clouds overcast
    Cold windy breeze blowing blast
    Bending trees like mast
    Sometimes slow and sometimes fast
    Light blue skies behind clouds vast

    Family:

    Easter lilies cuts
    Wield large knife gardening nuts
    Out front of house ruts
    Small vases of sacred huts
    Fifth on dining table but

    Maw frying fish cakes
    Wheelchair crying with knees aches
    Old people mistakes
    Cutting toe nails and corn flakes
    After Paw’s leaf blower rakes

    Crying Old Maw’s clean
    Activities lack routine
    Lotion, iodine, latrine
    Dependant on others’ preen
    Daughter said, ‘To deal with change!’ mean

    Massage aching hands
    Crying Old Maw understands
    None at all to help plans
    Stretching the tight muscles strands
    Remove some pain; so she stands.

    Early morning rise
    Rubbed my groggy tired eyes
    Palm Sunday surprise
    First time use per my advice
    Purple wheelchair with despise

    Rolling Maw along
    Defiant red cane stick strong
    Boring Gospel long
    In the blue skies trails of wrong
    Birds sounding their warm spring song

    Spit bad thoughts like pooh
    Filter out what may be true
    Ate burritos two
    Listened on how to make stew
    Couldn’t remember; no clue

    Beckon sleepy head
    Excused myself off to bed
    Four hour nap spread
    Four hours blog, poems read
    Downstairs again for late bread

    Pamper grown baby
    Wheelchair and the old lady
    Always slave not free
    Do this and that or maybe
    Stop my thoughts of sad banshee

    Patience of Old Paw
    Works as a lone gardener
    Quiet with no stir
    Bundled up in cotton fur
    Nothing to stop or deter

    Family and Rant:
    Early morning wake
    Got lost to have a fast break
    At the seven make
    Filled out more forms for their sake
    Waiting room my home and stake

    Construction site stink
    Stared out windows without blink
    Prayed and wondered think
    About my unified link
    And how they coincide sync

    Re-hydrated too much
    Sat and exercised and such
    Tired to keep in touch
    Drank coffee and tea as crutch
    Ate ‘Paw’s turkey sandwich clutch

    Family and People:

    Elder lady Bond
    With strong accent blue eyed blonde
    Knows how to respond
    Wheel chaired ‘Maw’ to car beyond
    Bid our farewells to her fond

    ‘Onion,’ girl came by
    Clowned lazy girl’s gardened shy
    ‘Onion’s’ morn call, ‘Hi.’
    Girl washed our dishes good-bye.
    ‘Maw’s words to boy soothe imply.

    Faith:

    Imaged as a God
    Incroyable how I forgot
    I could never rot
    Through lot, with dot and in spot
    in the unity of Grok

  • 20061129-Dream Journal

    Before drifting off to an uneasy night of sleep due to pain in my right arm (with pinching in the shoulder socket and neck area) from working to hard in the garden, I had a brief image of a wispy ‘sylph’ formation coming horizontally centered from my ‘right’ vision perspective.

    The background was dark and I saw other nice ‘scroll works,’ if I remember briefly.

    The next one showed a red pattern in the center of my dream. I saw perhaps smaller circular shapes that formed a cross shape. The top of this shape is a cross between an oval and a square; while the bottom stretched downward towards my chest.
